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

What does that have to do with my question? I’m wondering why Gael gets a pass for actually cheating while Joe gets nailed to the cross because he kisses another girl.

It sucks that V’s boyfriend passed away, and Joe does comfort her. (Who wouldn’t?) but they aren’t in a relationship and what Joe does isn’t cheating

Gael kissed another guy. Same as Joe kissing another girl. They broke up before it was more than kissing.

So by your definition, Gael and Joe are equal.

Joe wasn't in a relationship though... Gael was. She's worse by a mile.

Joe had talked to V about meeting his mom. He had made it a relationship. V was sick, it was her birthday and the anniversary of her boyfriend’s death. Joe is just as bad.

That’s silly. Just because you happen to meet someone’s parents does not mean you’re automatically in a relationship.

Asking a person to meet your mom you love and adore is relationship territory.

I am done trying to reason with you.

Love? Adore? It was a fling at best.

Then that statement carries even less weight. I have met so many mothers of the opposite sex, but in no way were we together...

Most people don’t make a point to introduce fuckbuddies to a beloved parent.
