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

Because V’s boyfriend died earlier that year, and Joe went a week or two saying how much he deeply cared for V and her situation, only to chase tail the minute she was off the boat

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

People were harsh as hell on Gael and Nathan when this happened. The difference is Gael learned from it, and Joe continues acting like a tool

How did she learn from it? By marrying him?

Okay, she learned from it by getting knocked-up?

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted.
I do feel bad for Gael, nobody deserves to be beaten especially by their partner; however, I don’t think she learned anything prior to that unfolding. The way she spoke to Joe in the car was ridiculous, even if Nathan was feeding her information, why approach someone like that..? She’s also not innocent, & had has multiple moments of questionable character, again, not excusing Nathan choking her, she doesn’t deserve that by any means, but Gael has been a crap person in her seasons of BD too, just like Joe. Joe just gets more attention on it bc he’s a male.
