I wasn't trying to justify it. I don't think cheating can ever be truly justified, but I think that for me, cheating wouldn't necessarily be a deal breaker. There are a lot of variables. I think it would depend on the seriousness of our relationship and the details of the indiscretion: How many times? With whom?
Most people who cheat don't do it to hurt their partner, but out of a selfish desire to fulfill something they're missing or craving within. It takes a strong person to forgive, but I think that sometimes true love isn't always picture perfect. The hard part is distinguishing which relationships and lovers are really worth fighting for.
Obviously this doesn't apply to most people, but these are just my thoughts.
