I guess when something like that happens, it makes me wonder what else I don't know (or the other person, like John Edwards' wife).

Once trust is lost, it's lost. No matter how much you forgive, you don't forget. It's there. It will be there.

I know I tried to see past infidelity before in my own relationships. The last one, the guy told me he was going to visit his grandpa, and actually went to visit another girl for a week. I found out because he borrowed my cell phone, and the calls showed up on my bill. He tried to explain things away, how he didn't feel that we were actually a couple at that point, blah, blah, blah. The fact that he went to see her the day after my birthday, had me drive him to the bus stop... it just was too much for me to forgive or forget really.

I tried. It just didn't work. And he continued to lie about things. Once a liar, always a liar.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
