Jesus took her sin upon Himself and he was already slapped. No sin or crime is judged twice. If you want to be free of sin believe in Jesus Christ and you shall be set free.

It takes time, patience and a real willingness to want to forgive and forget.  If you can't forgive and forget, then you will never learn to trust again.  Think of it this way.  No one is perfect, even you and I have made and will continue to make mistakes (sometimes big ones).  Just give yourself PLENTY of time and take baby steps.  It may take a few years even, but if the relationship(s) are better afterwards, it will be worth your while.

Personally I try to forgive, but not forget.\n\nI believe in the saying "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me".  If someone has developed a pattern of behavior that is unkind and/or selfish that is their business, I just won't put up with it.

Once you repent and ask God to forgive you of something, you are forgiven. Not only does he forgive you, he also remembers it no more. So you need not worry about that. However when you sin there are still consequences. For example if you drink and use drugs for a long time, you may damage your body, or if you mess up financially, you may find yourself stuck in debt. Or if you offend someone, there's still a damaged relationship to be dealt with. You will still have to deal with the consequences even though you are forgiven. But take heart, God doesn't leave you to deal with them on your own. He stays with you and heals you, weather it takes a long time or a little, he does take care of us.\n\nAs for the desires of your heart, God knows better than you do what you want, what you need, and what will benefit you. Of course he wants you to pray and make your requests known, but that doesn't mena he'll always give you what you want when you want it. Again, He knows best. He may not give you what you want because he knows it's not the best thing for you. Or perhaps the timing is not right, and he will give you what you want at the best time (later). It may also be that he wants to teach you to wait on him and trust him.\n\nIn any case, just trust him. He is your father and he loves you more than you will ever imagine. He also sees all things. He knows everything that will happen to you in your life and he truly knows what's best. Also rest assurred he has forgiven you of everything you've repented for. You need only repent once for a sin and it is completely forgotten by Him. So forgive yourself. God has forgiven you, and those past sins will never count against you.

As a hiring manager, I want to know about that conviction, exactly why it happened, and why it won't happen again.  Truthfully, a dishonesty offense is about the hardest kind for a company to forgive -- if there is an equal candidate with no convictions, that person will get hired first.  No crime gets expunged automatically -- you have to apply to the court to have it sealed or expunged.

GOD will forgive anyone who makes a mistake even if you kill someone. So you made a mistake by ending up with someone like that so what GOD will forgive you. I have been married 2 times myself. And only the LORD knows what kinda relationship that I was in the first time. If you wait to long and live like this you will become a cold harted person. My husband now gets upset because when we get into arguments I don't cry and they can be pretty rough sometimes. The reason why is because of my first marriage I just got to the point to where I couldn't take it anymore and I had to get out but I was getting physical abuse. It's not worth messing up your life because of a jerk. The right person will pass you by if you don't make the right move. I am so happy in this marriage and we get along so well most of the time. It has to be really bad for us to get into it. But everyone fusses and argues. Do whatever makes you happy and pray about it and GOD will lead you in the right direction. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Please take this as useful information. I have been there I know. And GOD understands what you are going through as well. Good luck.

Forgiveness is one of the most often misunderstood things in the world, but the answer to your question is yes, abolutely!\nNo matter what someone has done, you can forgive (and must forgive them, if you want to be forgiven yourself).\nForgiveness does not mean that what a person did was right, or make it OK, it simply means that you release them from the obligation to make it right to you.\nForgiveness does not mean that (in some cases) legal proceedings will not happen (or should not happen).\nForgiving a person does not mean that you trust them again, in fact, in some cases this would be the height of foolishness (such as a person who has abused you in some way).

All you you have to do is ask for forgiveness and He will throw the sin into the sea of forgetfulness. God does not hold grudges. Once you accepted Jesus it was forgiven.
