Many people forgive partners who have cheated and give their relationships another chance. When those who have strayed are welcomed back, research finds, it's probably due to this.
Are such tactics successful? Sometimes, if they are persuasive.
In their research, Apostolou and Pediaditakis found that, sure enough, the tactics that were used to solicit forgiveness significantly mirrored the factors that led people to forgive infidelity in the previous study. They did, however, find significant sex differences in the use of tactics. Specifically, except for the tactic of enlisting the assistance of relatives and friends, women were more willing to use persuasion.
In every case, forgiveness is a careful, prayerful decision to extend grace based on a variety of relational factors, unique to each couple—a decision that takes all relevant factors into consideration and that, optimistically, should only need to be made once.
