If my wife actually did cheat on me and left me for the OM (I'm still trying to figure out what is going on), and if I took her back after she came to her senses, if she could get over her guilt and let me forgive her, my question is: can my family ever love her again?

I could love her because our love was so strong. She loved me so much and was so good to me. And I could love her because I know I made so many mistakes. I treated my wife the way I wanted to be treated, rather than how a wife needs to be treated, because I didn't know what I was doing. I also took her for granted, and didn't appreciate her the way that I should have, for some reason, maybe because of porn viewing, I don't know.

So, can the family of the LBS ever forgive a cheating spouse that comes back? What do you guys know about that?
