What is your limit to forgiving your partner?

    Just read this article a few minutes ago:

    http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/sister-and-husband-stand-by-mother-who-avoids-jail-for-swindling-own-family-in-125k-fraud-30671291.html

    Basically the woman stole from her families savings accounts, took out loans in her husband, sister and brothers name and eventually got caught.
    The sister and the husband are standing by her (I'm assuming because of the children) but it makes no mention of her other family members.
    If I had no children with the person and was in the above husbands position, my trust would be completely gone. I would probably end the relationship.
    So it got me thinking, how far would your forgiveness go to a loved one?

    I wouldn't know until she tries something. Although I've done a lot of stupid things, i.e flooding the bathroom and hall when drunk, losing my job twice, causing a global armageddon etc. Each time she just laughed and gave me a hug.

    I leave her off with a lot of farts without making any comment



    But then I'm the forgiving type...

    See I would need to know what she wanted the money for. If it was for the latest Jimmy choos or Michael Kor, then nope wouldn't be up to forgiving, however if it were for the kids clothing shoes school fees paying mortgage etc then maybe in time I might forgive.
