Estranged means seperated from, she had obviously had enough of him and left.

Good for her. Then she can formally sever her oaths, just as she formally accept them. And, after that is finalized, then she can move on to another man. But to do it while she is still married is disgusting.

Should SM have waited for the state to release him from the bondage of his mariage before he went on with his life.

What are you going on about? It's not the state's recognition of marriage that I'm concerned with, but God's. Divorce, like marriage, is not something to be entered into lightly and there are solid reasons for making it more involved than a one moment of whimsy. Saying "we're not married anymore" and walking out the door does not un-marry a couple.

I would feel the same if the person were male. I have advised more than one male friend on this point, and watched as they disregarded my advice only to come back and tell me how right I was.

he fact that she was estranged from her husband does not make her so

I never said that it did. That she was married yet sleeping around made her a candidate for the category of "gutter slut."

Does that mean all those women sitting in battered shelters waiting for the slow process of divorce to go through are being unfaithful if they find someone else

Yes.
 
Do you remember what Clint Eastwood had been to prison for in "Bronco Billy"?

Girl: "What were you in prison for?"

BB: "I came home and found my wife in bed with my best friend."

Girl: "What did you do?"

BB: "I shot her."

Girl: "What did you do to him?"

BB: "Nothing. I told you, he was my best friend." :D

:rolleyes: To high a horse for me tp ride
I try to judge people by their actions and reasons rather than the legal paperwork that that the state inflicts on us.

Then why are you so twisted up by the fact that she did not go through legal channels to sever her income tax relationship
And would that be the same god that had a book written about him, that included phrases like judge not lest ye be judged and a story about throwing stones at sinners

Whenever religion is brought in as the only justification for maligning someone's character I figure it's time to leave the conversation
 
*shrug*

Some folks don't much care to be held to the oaths they swear, and want to feel as though it's fine and dandy to break those oaths without so much as a by-your-leave. My word means something. When I give it, I stand by it, and I expect others to do likewise. I won't force someone not to live their life like an animal, but neither will I hesitate to call it for what it is: without honor. Without class. Without dignity.

Why should you follow the forms laid out by the state and church to secure a divorce? Why did you follow their respective rituals to get married in the first place?

Judgement? I'm not judging her, but I will feel free to use words which accurately describe the behavior in which she has engaged.

It looks like all three of them were in the wrong on this one. The female and the shooting victim for engaging in adultery, and the shooter/husband for his (presumably) unjustified use of lethal force.

Tax money, work benefits, legal privileges.

Government marriages do not mean anything because they are coercive. Basically your money is stolen, and playing the marriage game gets you a slice back.
 
While living in Bangkok in the late ‘60s, we came to love The Bangkok Post for its improbable stories. A favorite I carried in my wallet until the wallet was lost was of a Peruvian man, aged 98(?) who came home to catch his 96(?) year old wife in flagrante delicto with his 103 year old neighbor. Wife and neighbor died of a single shot, the cuckolded husband was acquitted. I kept that clipping as evidence of the real possibility of achieving one of my ultimate desiderata: to die at the hands of a jealous husband at 103!

35 seems a tad young, especially as I will soon celebrate my 54th birthday!

Wait a minute, that doesn't match up with what you said earlier:

How do you know that God hadn't already granted her a divorce?
 
In that same vein, if your wife is sleeping around on you you deserve it. Afterall if you were taking care of business at home, then she wouldn't need to go elsewhere.

I guess the notions of Honor and Trust are outdated, or perhaps only mean anything to people who have imaginary friends. :rolleyes:

And I guess reading comprehension isn't very high on your list of skills. As I've already pointed out to two people, my comment was in response to the one I'd quoted. Hence "In that same vein".
 
having never been married, but having been cheated on quite a few times. (long distance relationships don't work)

My solution is as follows. Walk out of the house feeling free of the wench.
Take the dogs!! They like you better anyway.(Dogs know good people)

Theres only one thing to say after something like that...Next. :D

Note: Use as directed, results may vary.
 
nd I guess reading comprehension isn't very high on your list of skills.

This is a rough topic, but let's take a collective breath and keep our feet on the High Road.

(And now I wait for someone to tell me that referring to cheating husbands as "cads" is not 'High Road.')
 
Aw, hell, I'd shoot,,,,,,,, with a camera.
Then send the picture to Hustler's Beaver Hunt! :evil:
You never know. Plus, there is always the internet, church bullentin board, place of employment, Christmas cards to her family......... Get over it and have a little fun at her expense.
Just make sure that all of the above is anonymous.....

Yanus :D
 
I'm not 100 % sure about this but if the husband and wife were legally separated it might not have been adultry.

No class, trainer park for sure but perhaps not legally adultry.

I hope this couple did not have any kids.
