for whatever reason he wasn't getting what he needed/wanted from her.

 

well that's an interesting way to spin it

 

When I say I want a sammich right now, that doesn't mean I want a sammich five minutes from now, it means I want my mother horsefeathering sammich right horsefeathering now.

Um. Why are you bringing this up in this thread?

Hahahah! I was THIS close to including a line about "how soon until this guy says something, like, 'well, we can't have an opinion without all of the facts,'" as if at some point some kind of peer-reviewed, footnote-crammed dissertation about the trials and tribulations of Addison Russell's love life is going to appear. Your ilk LOVE going on about "facts" and "proof" and "evidence" like you're Jack McCoy or something and somehow above celebrity gossip talk (but only when it's about someone you like).

 

Again, for the third time, all this is is people having an opinion about a public figure's known and accused behavior. If you think it's none of your business, then why interject trying to be the selective morality police because people are saying nasty things about an athlete you are a fan of?

 

There's a difference between infidelity and domestic abuse

 

What are you actually replying to in the post you quoted?

I live in a major metropolitan city so that is what Uber, lyft and the F train is for.

It's a pretty important question since David gets around on a Gizmoduck-like contraption.

Because peeps started talking about cheating and morals and how that makes him a bad dude, and I was wondering for those who think that and are judging him for it - which is fine - how many have actually done worse things?

This is the "you can't criticize baseball players if you've never played professional baseball" argument

That's an irrelevant question. You can recognize flaws in others while having flaws of your own.

this guy gets jokes and sarcasm

was it Almora that had 2 different fiances in about a year or two?

I think something like that. He was engaged then not engaged then engaged again (could've been to the same girl) then all the sudden there was a instagram or something of him in a courthouse getting married.

Totally. But then spare me the moral compass crap. Not you, just in general.

Nah. My "flaw" is judging others for treating their loved ones like horsefeathers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

infidelity is horsefeathering stupid no matter how you slice it. if you're not feeling the person you're with, talk it out/go to couples therapy, get a divorce or break up with them. plus there's children involved and the psychological ramifications and burdens they have to carry with them about their father cheating on their mother.

 

goony is right: have a moral compass.

 

Yeah, if it's just cheating, then I'm going to stay out of it. I will definitely look at a person differently if they are a cheater. I have a good friend whose dad cheated on his mom, and I know how much that tore him up. It was a good lesson for me growing up to not be a horsefeathering horsefeathers and to have a moral compass. But, I also have a friend who has been known to cheat in basically every relationship -- though never married or with kids. And I don't really know how to process that. I prefer to just view any act of infidelity as a private issue that isn't any of my business, while still recognizing that doing such a thing makes you a scumbag.

 

It's a touchy subject. But, that's not even an issue with me right now, thanks to the domestic violence allegations.

This is an absurdly absolutist take; so nobody can ever have a critical opinion on the actions of someone else because they themselves are inherently flawed? The hell?

If that's your biggest flaw, then judge away. You have earned that right.
