mine didnt say he was sorry either, lied to my face saying i was dellusional...
im sorry that he has hurt you!

never really got a flat out apology....said he "never meant to hurt me"---maybe not, but ya did.

My stbx is starting to understand, he has been in bad denial about a lot of things lately.
He does apologize for, and regret a lot of things that he has done, things he didn't realise he was doing only 2 weeks ago. Our divorce is most likely going to go through, he is still involved with the OW and in love with her, but if I know him as well as I think I do the other woman will be out of both our lives before this year is over. That does not solve the problems we had in our relationship before he started cheating and decided to leave, but it DOES help me a lot to know that he understands how hurt I got.
So yes, it does happen that some of the cheaters apologize. I suppose it depends on what character they had to begin with.

I have talked to alot of divorce people... most dont' apolgize but the somewhat admin ( sometimes years later) that they made a mistake by leaving the marriage.. WTF?

NO.

My husband is also having an affair. He admittedly denies it however, and is divorcing me out of the blue. I know that he will never admit to it, even though I told him numerous times that I have proof. I am not sure why some men are such cowards, or why they cheat. I am so sorry that you are experiencing the same heartache, but I truly believe that once a cheater always a cheater. Be strong, and remember that he is the one that is flawed and not you.

Mine "sort of" did, he said he was sorry and that "I didn't intend to hurt you"..but he never said he was sorry he did it..which is a WHOLE other apology!

I don't think I will even get the "I am sorry I didn't mean to hurt you or waste your life".

I was told that "everyone does it so get over it."
So I got over it and filed

Mine has never said I'm sorry. He continues to find good "excuses" for his actions & tells me repeatativly that our "marriage" was over years ago.

OOOOPs! I think he's missed a step there..the part where the judge signs the paper. The idiot!!!

I am sorry your are hurting. Please remember, cheating is about him/her...not you. It is a selfish act they choose to make w/out regards to what it does to everyone else involved. Hugs to you tonight.

People cheat for different reasons and before anyone gets on the bandwaggon about it being wrong. There are instances where there is some justification.
My wife used to make it a point to accuse me at least once a week of having an affair for at least 9 years before I had one. Sometimes we see things that aren't there. It is never nice to be hurt by the ones we love and I hope you can start healing soon.

To the best of my knowledge my husband never cheated on me, but someone I loved very much did - and with anything that moved! To this day he contacts me sporadically and still denies cheating on me, even after I caught him doing it. I think it depends on the person, however, and the type of character they have. I'm sorry you've been hurt, especially by lies. I wish you the best.

Sorry there is never a reason to cheat, if you feel the need to..get a divorce first. Cheaters always have an excuse. Well they don't need an excuse, just the truth..they are week inconsiderate selfish people. I'm sorry Saddy, you will probably never get an apology, he probably feels in some way that he is justified. An apology will not change anything anyway, if he cared about your felings he wouldn't have cheated.

Nope, ex never apologized, in fact he never apologizes for anything. I call it the coddled only child syndrome. They are their mother's prince and have been treated like royalty all their lives. They can't imagine that there could be something wrong with them.

I will never ever date an only child again. I was the oldest of 8 children. Only children are selfish, arrogant and spoiled.

They are always right.

Mine never admitted it even with proof beyond a reasonable doubt. How do you figure? She is in a world all her own.
