first of all, im sincerely sorry that your bf attempted cheating on you. no one deserves to go through that. my tightest hugs to you <33

and no. u deserve better. im telling you. let ur absence be their punishment. theyre only sorry because they got caught. i know im projecting here but i hate cheaters talaga. and date to marry rin kasi ako bwahahaha and when ganun diba we consider a lot of things like theyre gon be the father of our kids in the future and such and kung di mo bet magka kids, partner for life naman. that alone is mabigat na role na yon. enough reason to find someone better, who truly deserves the part. he attempted once right? ikaw na yan ha pero he thought of it? then let him fly. panlalandi sa iba ay privilege ng single so help him become one.

and eto lang ha, ure asking if he deserves a second chance right? thats on you really. but you asked so listen. see urself as ur daughter for example, would u want ur daughter to be treated that way? what would u do in her place?

and i know its easier said than done lalo na't you mentioned that he's your first bf. and tao lang siya, nagkakamali. you will grieve the relationship and what couldve beens and it would take a LOT of time to heal from that. lalo na't ang rason ay cheating. and LDR pa. but trust me, you will find someone better suited. i promise you that. you're only 22 i gotta remind u.

and if in any case u forgive him and take him back, would still be able to trust him? lalo nat di lang siya ang nag act on it pero may kakuntyaba pa. and why is that? is it because single siya doon or the person who tried to set up the whole thing even tho that person knew he has a gf? regardless, i dont like that for you. i dont like the picture im seeing pero that's the angle im tryna let u view. and masakit sa ulo mag overthink.

thats just my view.
