There’s an old country song by Hank Williams that I grew up knowing and I have no idea why. It’s half cheater’s lament and half telltale heart.
“Your cheatin’ heart will make you weep
You’ll cry and cry and try to sleep
But sleep won’t come
The whole night through
Your cheatin’ heart will tell on you
When tears come down like fallin’ rain
You’ll toss around and call my name
You’ll walk the floor the way I do
Your cheatin’ heart will tell on you”
And once you’ve been told on, what happens next? Do the two of you break it off, do you try to make it work, do you separate and reunite for another go?
People attempt all kinds of options, and what we’ve got today is a random anonymous sampling of the results.
10. “Trying to give him a chance”
That would definitely be very hard to forget.

This took a HARD left turn.

8. “Only had an emotional affair”
That does make things a little less clear.

Good, you deserve that.

No need to keep that around in your life.

Your cheatin’ heart will tell on you.
