When a cheater plays for more time to decided whether or not to stop cheating, they have already decided. (And that is a decision against the marriage, by the way.)
You do not owe them that time!
In fact, giving them that time is reinforcing the belief that they are entitled to such time and are engaging in a legitimate deliberation.
They aren’t!
When they got married, they made the choice already. This choice was part of their wedding vows to “forsake all others.”
You do not need time to know this. Time is only needed if you are considering acting treacherously and breaking one’s vows more permanently.
So, do not tolerate this.
If cheaters do not feel ready to commit (again and as they freely promised), then they ought to expect getting divorced.
Doing the right thing is not a hard to see.
How to avoid the consequences of doing the wrong things?
Well, we might have a winner here as to why a cheater wants that precious, extra time.
