This question is so emotional. Your cheating partner’s answer might be positive or negative.

In the sense that, if he/she says YES, it means they let their cheating guards down and would try as much as possible to cover it very well next time.

But if your cheating partner says NO, it means he/she really would want to make amends if given the chance to by you.

The best way to avoid a psychological breakdown after experiencing or having to deal with infidelity is to make sure you are not just assuming your partner is cheating, don’t say they are cheating until you have gathered proof of their act, confrontation without evidence is just unacceptable, i contacted (cyberexpositors at gmail dot com) when i was in the eye of the storm with my now Ex wife, i saw all her mails, whatsapp messages, kik and even pictures she exchanged with her lover, but it was easier at the end really, having proof helps a lot.
