Now of course there are some absolutes but many things we want to fly off the handle and judge off the surface are a lot more complex and gray. Therefore I am certainly not going to judge this man for his "affair". If someone is a straight up a-hole and cheats on his wife...different story but my point is we have to examine things like this on a case by case basis and we shouldn't just assume things from half baked knowledge


Agree. This guy's biggest mistake was getting caught by the wife's mother of all people. He should've went out of his way to avoid getting caught. That was the biggest mistake because regardless of what most may say, I think most of us would be susceptible to cheating under those same circumstances. If I were in his shoes right now I would be ok with giving up sex because I am almost 50 and have enjoyed more sex than what I deserved thanks to a good wife but if it happened to me ten or fifteen years ago then I would probably cheat just like this guy did.

Did the pics of the caretaker not load for anyone else?

Don’t really find it that ridiculous at all. Some people take their vows more seriously than others. I don’t think you have to be a “boomer” to feel that a vow is permanent as stated.

Tough situation.

Obviously, morally it's wrong.

But in reality, I would expect him to have strong favorable feelings to the one person who cares for the love of his life. On the other hand, the caretaker spends a lot of time around him and has gotten to know and probably cares for him.

And it's the OT..where are pics of caretaker?

It's a no win situation for the guy. He divorces his wife so he can get on with his life, he's a POS. He goes on with his life without divorcing his wife, he's a POS.

How was the husbands affair admissible evidence in a trial about overtime affair? Did she claim the hours spent banging the husband as work hours?

Wife and I both agreed: if either are in this condition, take care as best you can but move in with your life at the same time.

Hell, if I were in that condition just kill me.

I don’t blame the dude and if this happened to me I would hope my wife would move on and try to find happiness. The person expecting it to ruin someone else’s life as well is the real a hole in this scenario

What part of "in sickness and in health" do you not understand? This is open and shut. Are those just words people say because they're supposed to or do they mean them? Yes it's cheating.

That said, In fairness to him and to answer your question, no he's not a bad person because many would do the same in his position. I don't think cheating necessarily makes someone a bad person.

At the least people should discuss these type of scenarios so you can hash out what happens between the two of you what should happen in the case of an irreversible injury that prevents any type of meaningful interaction. Get a postnup.

I took care of my Grandmother for years. If it were me who was incapacitated, I would want my wife to have a real life as long as she took care of me. I shouldn't be a ball and chain.
