I don't think it's a matter of strength. An affair, in my mind, means the relationship is irreparably damaged. Even if the relationship was strong prior to the affair, an affair happens when one person is incapable of being in a relationship; they can't abide by the "contract" of a relationship. To say you have a strong relationship AND an affair is an oxymoron.

I think when one partner says "we're strong enough to get through this," it's really denial about what the affair means. I would never take someone back who cheated. Cheating means "I don't care enough about you to put our relationship before carnal lust." To me, that means they're not worth being with. Period.
