Do You Know How To Break Up?
Most people struggle with how to break up. This is true no matter how far or how long the relationship has progressed or whether or not it is still in the “in love” phase. Often the actual break-up may inadvertently contribute to even deeper (and longer-lasting) wounds for the other person than the struggles that might have occurred during the actual relationship.
So how do you allow for a clean break that is both honest and kind?
The Most-asked Question Ever
CHEATING and the Error of Omission
The issue is deep. It is certainly not conscious nor is the behavior that follows. The act itself is breaking an agreement. Beyond that, it goes against personal beliefs of both partners. I am assuming here that agreements are made based on mutual beliefs. When one goes against their own personal agreements and beliefs, it seems impossible that guilt (or at least some discomfort) wouldn’t follow.
Here is the worst part. If one doesn’t tell, it becomes the second act of betrayal. Now you have the act of omission. Continuing on, every time the partner has the potential of finding out the truth, the act of omission happens again.
