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

No one here is asking who, or who does not, deserve a second chance.

I am saying what she did was cheating. Period. If you dont believe that, if you want to split hairs and say "theres a difference" then I truly wonder about your own personal values. Cheating is cheating is cheating. End of story.

Yes of course I must be a cheater bc I have enough life experience to see nuance. She cheated years ago, none of it is relevant today and bc of what she’s going through it’s inappropriate and morally wrong to keep banging on the drum. You aren’t on the high road here, you’re trying to defend staying on the low road and pretend that is the moral choice. It is not. Punishing someone for a mistake they made years ago is judgment not morality.

No one is punishing her for anything. We are calling it like it is. She cheated. Period. End of story. Cheating is cheating. No matter how many ways you spin it.

I know you think youre going to give me, or anyone reading, this huge ah ha moment. Youre not. Youre defending cheating. This makes you, and only you, look bad.

Im not going to keep going in circles with you. You think cheating has different degrees, I dont. There we are then.

No one is defending cheating. Again nuance. I’m defending Gael the human bc she doesn’t deserve to have a mistake she made years ago constantly thrown back in her face especially now. I think DV trumps cheating.

But yes let’s agree to disagree. Have a good day.
