After the uncalled for scandal of Kristen Stewart had an illicit affair with "Snow White and the Huntsman" director Rupert Sanders during the filming of the fairytale movie, the actress released an official statement and public apology to her boyfriend Robert Pattinson. Should Rob accept this apology?

News broke out last Tuesday that Kristen Stewart had a fling with the director of her most recent movie. Us Weekly obtained scandalous photos of Stewart and Sanders that showed the fling going on between the two were the two were seen kissing and hugging each other. The actress made a public apology via People magazine to her beau for four years and to their fans.

"I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry," Kristen said.

Just minutes after Kristen apologized to her boyfriend for four years, Rupert Sanders also released his own apology.

"I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family ... My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together."

Robsten started dating four years ago after meeting at the set of the first Twilight film. The two were not very public with their relationship.

Below are the arguments why Robert Pattinson should and should not accept Kristen's Apology

Why he should accept the apology:

  1. Forgive and forget - Robert Pattinson should practice what humanity has taught us, which is to forgive those who have done us wrong and forget what happened.
  2. They should at least try to make their relationship work - Problems are normal in a relationship. Like in any other relationship, this will only be the first. Thus, they should remain strong in front of problems and make their relationship work. Surpassing problems will only make them stronger.
  3. Not to disappoint their large fanbase - Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have a large following. Their fans were disappointed by the news. However, making up and showing strength in front of problems will give their fans inspiration.

Why he should NOT accept the apology:

  1. Cheating is cheating. Period - Cheating is a big no-no in a relationship. If you cannot be faithful and honest to your partner then you should not be in a relationship.
  2. Their relationship will not be the same - Even if Rob forgives Kristen, their relationship will no longer be the way it was before. Doubt and jealousy will spring from little things that will lead to fights.
  3. There are better girls out there - It may sound like a cliché but "there are many fishes in the sea." Rob is better off with other girls.

Whatever Rob's decision is, we just hope that everything will be well in the end.
