So I’m sure everyone has heard the news- Kristen Stewart cheated on her immortal beloved, Rob Pattinson, upsetting Twihards everywhere, not to mention a lot of regular folks who just happen to think Rob Pattinson is an all ’round nice guy that didn’t deserve this. They seemed to have a sweet courtship, one that they denied when Kristen was threatened by hundreds of women that wanted Rob for themselves, but eventually, they came clean, and their relationship helped propel the Twilight love story into a phenomenon.
After four years together, it seemed like opposites really do attract, and the clean cut and handsome Pattinson, who could have had pretty much any woman he wanted, was utterly devoted to the droopy-eyed, antisocial, rarely-smiling Stewart.
Then this happened:
and this:
and this:
And while the famous cheating scandal upsets me for a multitude of reasons, such as destroying the idealism of a cool dude like Robert Pattinson (who is now likely to cheat in the future, because he won’t ever be able to fully and innocently trust to such an extent again and risk being humiliated and hurt a second time), what upsets me more about the whole cheating scandal is that he is considering taking her back.
Robert Pattinson shouldn’t give Kristen Stewart a second chance. And here is why:
1. She has a pattern of cheating. She left her last boyfriend for Rob, and was secretive about their relationship. If she hadn’t been caught by the photographer, she likely would have kept cheating on Rob too (with whom she was talking engagement and marriage) and kept hiding it.
2. If he forgives her, she’ll know she has him under her thumb, and won’t respect him. There is nothing like a sucker who keeps coming back for more mistreatment, and the cheater will keep serving it up because they know they have someone who doesn’t have the self esteem to leave.
3. She cheated with a married man, and broke up his family, so the homewrecker has no morals (and she didn’t apologize to the wife either, so no remorse). Which leads me to my last, and best reason, he shouldn’t take her back (and is lucky this happened, and he found out about it- because she was never going to come clean on her own):
4. He was lucky enough to find out while they were still dating. Does he want to marry and have kids with Kristen, and then find out she is cheating? And be faced with divorce, the break up of the home of his family, only seeing his children 50% of the time, and worst of all, knowing when his children are with Stewart, she is likely hanging out with the stud who broke up their home as well, and having him take out their kids for ice cream?
When you are dating someone and find out they are cheating, I call it a blessing. Rob could have been in the dark until after they tied the knot. He missed a big bullet here, and he is a lucky guy. Unless he takes her back. Then he’s a damned fool.
I wanted to give kudos to Liberty Ross, the model and wife of 40 year old Rubert Sanders (who looks his age and then some, and is lucky to have had a single beauty in his life, let alone more than one woman— have you seen him? The guy is not easy on the eyes). Liberty is not impressed with his embarrassing public apology, and in fact has a body guard keeping her pathetic husband at bay. She won’t talk to him, and is very unimpressed with the skanky behavior of Kristen Stewart, and the best part? While she is very sad and hurt this happened to her family, she tweeted that she feels this all happened (the break up of her marriage) so that something better could come into her life. I like a positive gal!
Rupert Sanders is still wearing his wedding ring, hopeful to work things out with Ross, who stopped wearing hers. So sorry Kristen, it looks like you may have to struggle a bit- how do you promote a romantic love story trilogy when you cheated on the star? How do you get jobs in Hollywood when you are branded a homewrecker and no one wants to work with you? How do you get a new boyfriend when you always look half asleep?
Ok kristen and robert were never a serious comitted formal couple.There are even journalist in the past claiming nobody would believe what kind of unusual “couple” they are. Technically kristen didnt cheat on anyone. Rob and kris are acting like a couple because of the marketing from summit entertainmet and their fields. Maybe they did have something more. i do think so. But never official. And its being said that Rob is not a saint either! Another tibdit is that everything that is being said on media about the cheating scandal, has been planned by their publicist. Thats what hollywood does after all.
Wow. Clearly you’ve never been in a relationship before. So I guess the 30-80% (Wall St. Journal) of people who repair their marriages after infidelity are fools? mkay
It’s absolutely possible to repair a marriage after cheating. Depending upon how you approach the situation, it’s possible to work to repair your relationship and in the process make it stronger. Some people cheat. Some people make mistakes. I don’t think that my husband cheating once in a moment of sheer weakness would ever negate the entirety of our relationship. Especially if he approached me afterward and came clean. I also think it’s complete rubbish when you mentioned he will now be more likely to cheat because he was cheated on.
He isn’t married to her, and she didn’t come clean, she was caught. I hope he doesn’t change who he is as a result, he seems like such a nice guy.
The marriage is irrelevant. Hurt is hurt. Married or not. Cheating when you’re dating and cheating when you have children and are married are two worldly different situations, yes. But, the pain that you feel is the same. The worst thing I have ever dealt with married is different than the worst thing you have ever dealt with dating perhaps, but the feelings are the same, it’s the worst thing ever.
So you do agree then that trying to continue a relationship after cheating isn’t something that should immediately be avoided married or not?
I’m married, and my perspective is as a married woman…if someone had cheated on me while dating, I would have felt blessed to discover it before we got married, because I think looking at a person’s character is very important when deciding who to marry. When I was picking the man who is going to be the father of my children, it wasn’t going to be someone who felt it was ok to treat me and our relationship that way…there are too many men in the world for me to have settled for a cheater (and it doesn’t matter if he maybe didn’t do it again…the likelihood was higher so I wouldn’t have taken the chance).
I’m sure the pain is bad either way, but the options are different in many cases. And I would never tell another married woman what choices to make with her marriage, but I would definitely tell people dating that staying with a cheater is a risk, because you already know they are capable of cheating on you.
How do you know she never apologized to Liberty? Because she didn’t make a public statement about it? Or maybe because the “sources” remained quiet?
Rob should take her back if he thinks he can FORGIVE her and trust her again. Power full this thing called forgiveness is.
Or he should not take her back if Rob thinks it’s for the best.
But nobody knows what them better then themselves. We know nothing about their private life. We don’t know how much Rob loves her. So if he wants to take a risk because he doesn’t want to live with the What if’s then I’ll respect him even more. Because it wouldn’t be about what “fans” want or think he should do. It’s about what he wants to do regardless how his decisions will be viewed by the public.
