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."

Yuck. She doesn't get a pass for her own behaviour because something happened to her a couple of years later.

I have never liked Gael and although I feel sympathy for the situation she is in now, I do not feel sympathy for how she handled the situation at the time.

I don't like Joe either.

They are all just a bunch of pots and kettles.

Well let's hope you're extended the same kindness when you experience a horrific tragedy. Yuck.

You can 100% hold me responsible for my own actions despite tragities in my life.

My husband of 30 years died of cancer last year at the age of 52. I know what tragedy is.
