Hi strong2015,
The cheating is of course, a red flag, if not DEALBREAKER.
The “If you met the love of your life he wouldn’t begrudge for choosing someone over him” is him saying, “DUMP ME NOW, because I’m too comfortable to do the dumping and haven’t met MY love of MY life!!”
What I would do (Me, not You, ME people!) is say, “Darling, I’ve met someone”.
See what his reaction is. If he flips out. If he is true to his word, and leaves gracefully. If he’s surprised.
Or you can say “I need a break” and reconnect NEXT YEAR. THEN see if any spark is there. Remorse. Lingering passion.
Personally, I believe you should only “forgive” cheating if there’s children involved.
Best,
Inky
