I felt bad for how he left her standing there.

Haaaaa! Not at all. She appeared to be loving the attention. Giggling laughing whispering to her friend. She’s a seasoned serial cheater. She’s cheating on the guy she cheated with prior, only a couple years in new marriage.

I do not feel sorry for either of them one bit, they are at a massively public concert openly displaying three infidelity—they weren’t hiding in a Motel 6. They brought this on themselves. Their fatal flaw was their absolute arrogance.

She wanted to get caught. She wanted his wife to find out. Her behavior shows that. Many OW will leave clues for the wife to force the guy’s hand, get him caught in hopes he’ll leave the wife.

Yes, that’s it. Everything about both of them suggests that they don’t think the rules of business, love, and life apply to them. That’s why I kind of love this story.

What makes CEOs successful is also what make them the worst partners to commit too.

It often is. Mine was banging the client's support staff and there was a Foo Fighters concert involved. Silly me! I thought when he texted me a photo of them at FF that it was, just, a group outing.

Honestly by this point I kind of feel sorry for them, yet I am sick of seeing this all over the news when there are much more important things to care and opine about!

Trying to distract from Trump and Eppy

Nah. Cheating is something Americans universally hate and it’s very personal. Pretty much everyone has been affected by cheating in some manner—-as a betrayed spouse, as a kid whose family was broken up by it, as a sister or brother whose sibling was betrayed, a grandparent, etc. it’s a base human triggering event.

Then- add in he’s a billionaire and she’s a HR director, with news they are awful at work and you get even more schadenfreude. They were so BOLD and arrogant.

This is a both sides thing—it has nothing to do with Trump. Everyone is reporting it and talking about it. People are so fed up with the charlatans and the rich and the double standards.

If Americans hate cheating so much, how come “pretty much everyone has been affected?”

6 degrees of separation. You can be the mother or grandmother watching a son or daughter go through it. You can be a best friend. You can be a child of a cheater parent. You can be a co-worker. You can be an aunt or a niece or a sister or a brother. Christ, you can be a dog that loses its home and a parent.

Americans place cheating on a spouse dead last on a list of acceptable behaviors, behind abortion, cohabitation, pornography, out-of-wedlock births and divorce, among others. A puny 6 percent say adultery is acceptable, according to a Gallup poll conducted last May.
American social taboos on many issues — especially issues of personal sexual choice — have been changing over time, but views on infidelity have not budged. It has been consistently frowned upon by the masses across decades and demographics. Adultery is less popular than cloning humans, polygamy, suicide and teenagers having sex — all of which were also close to the bottom of Gallup's list. That disapproval has not ended infidelity, which may in fact be on the rise today among women, though men are still more likely to be unfaithful.
