One of the hardest parts of making a mistake is admitting to being at fault. If the person at fault openly admits to their mistakes and asks for forgiveness immediately, their partner will be much more understanding. If they try and blame others, or escape and hide from what they have done, once their partner finds out the truth, it will be a whole different story.
