This guy was in a long term rocky relationship with his girlfriend of about 11 years , However for 4 of those years he was also cheating and having a full blown sexual and intimate affair with his friend of whom he fell in love with as well .
His girlfriend had also cheated with her boss and who knows who else .
Because of circumstances he and his girlfriend of 11 years had to move away leaving the other girlfriend behind. Now they have recently got married.

Do you think a marriage can last with them both having these secrets ?, Or will guilt eat them up ?

Also do you think they will cheat again ? Or Do you think that because they are married now , they are happy and will stay faithful because they took vows ?

Yes there's a fair chance their marriages will last. People get and stay married for a number of reasons regardless of whether they are truly happy or not. For some people, guilt never comes into it. There are women who have gone to their deathbeds knowing that their husband was not the father of their child, yet they never came clean.

They might cheat again or they might stay faithful. One can never predict how life will pan out.

As strange as it sounds, the fact that they both admitted that they cheated may actually give them room for a clean slate.

They never told each other and if she knew who the other woman was she would go bat poop crazy .
He kinda knows about her but refuses to believe it to be true for whatever reasons.

That is true 1xolisiwe , I don't know how people can say they love someone and do such things. It just doesn't make sense to me . The guilt would eat me alive.

Just because an engagement or marriage takes place, or "lasts" doesn't mean the 2 people involved are happy, or even really in love for that matter.. Lol. People can and will fake the funk forever if it means keeping up appearances - know what I mean ?

Doomed.


Betraying has been classified as addictive behavior by doctors. Based on what you describe, they haven't a paryer. They are living lies with each other and seem to have no issues with it.

It is a high risk marriage. Probably will not last.

The OP completely missed the point. A relationship that's been rocky for 11 years will always be rocky. When you're dating, that's the easy part. God help these people if they ever tie the knot.
