Being cheated on Quote by Jerry Springer

“Relationships can survive infidelity, but only if the cheating partner feels as badly about it as the one he or she cheated on. In other words, they both with equal intensity have got to want to save the relationship. Short of that, the infidelity will certainly happen again.” quote by Jerry Springer
