Thoughts on the Longoria/Parker Divorce
Useless celebrity marriage argument....
I might be odd here but I think Eva Longoria is giving up way too easily on her marriage to Tony Parker. Not that sexting and cheating on your spouse in that way is okay... but when you get married you promise to stay married through good and bad. This seems to be a bad that through work could get better. But maybe I'm out to lunch on this. I just think that marriage is worth fighting for and shouldn't just be carelessly thrown away when something doesn't go right.
For those who don't watch celebrity gossip stuff, the report is that he sent/exchanged several hundred texts with his teammates wife in the last year. Reportedly there is was no actual physical cheating. Now the woman he was texting and Longoria have both filed for divorce.
Thoughts?
Re: Thoughts on the Longoria/Parker Divorce
I personally couldn't stay married to a man who lied to me for a year about an inappropriate relationship with another woman, physical or not. I wouldn't be inclined to work on a relationship with someone who would be OK with lying to me like that, it wasn't a one-time lapse in judgment, no man who respects you should do that to you.
That being said, who knows everything that went on in the relationship of these two behind closed doors, I'm sure there is more to the story, but from what I saw on the news it sounds like they were both ready to split and its probably for the best. On a sort of related note, I saw that she has his jersey number tattooed on her neck, talk about tattoo regret on that one.
hmmm... I hadn't really factored in the time of the "event". You have a point there.
As you noted, there is probably a lot more behind closed doors and that is to be expected anytime anyone talks about a celebrity and this is no exception.
Eva Longoria said that he cheated on her earlier in the marriage as well, I believe it was physical that time.
If my DH was sexting, flirting with other women, etc for a year, I would have a hard time getting past it and trusting him again. If he did it after he cheated on me, I would be divorcing him as well.
But, wasn't there a report a bit ago that he cheated too? It may not have been the first time.
But, I don't know. Something not going right is fighting or arguing or something like that. Cheating doesn't fall under that category. It's a whole different matter.
Ditto this! Not. Cool. Total dealbreaker.
I'm late on this, but my opinion (fwiw) is he tossed the vows and promises made when they got married by cheating and I don't blame her at all for not trying to work it through (of course that assumes she found out and got a lawyer, we don't know how long things have been rocky)
And I think cheating is way beyond something not going right and not on my list of bad things you stick through. Bad is losing jobs, money troubles, family crisises (illness, deaths, etc). Cheating says more negative things about his character then her divorcing him because of it does.
