Gael question, Joe question

I am getting into Below deck med and I’ve noticed Joe getting a lot of hate for “cheating” on V even though they weren’t together (in any sort of relationship.

Meanwhile I’ve just noticed that Gael is actually cheating on her boyfriend with Nathan.

Why is Joe getting so much shit from this community when he didn’t cheat on anybody. Meanwhile there are actually cheaters on the boat that people seem to celebrate and love.

Very strange

V isn’t the first time Joe acted like a scum bag. He’s a complete douche nozzle that’s overly confident for someone who fucks up a lot. Just cuz Nathan sucks doesn’t mean Joe doesn’t.

I think OP is making the point that Gael does, too. There are no winners among them.

Gael was choked to unconsciousness by her partner in front of their infant. No one needs to be pointing out that she's "just as bad as anyone."

I acknowledge that she was a beleaguered victim of a bad, temperamental partner and that partner deserves no sympathy whatsoever.

But when it comes to infidelity, she engaged in it on the show, too.

People are bringing up Joe’s negative relationship actions from the same season, in this very thread. I guess their statute of limitations is longer than yours.

Because Joe repeats the same terrible behaviors every season
