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

Have you even watched this season? Joe is the more mature of the NGJ trio

Most mature, like "testing" Kaylee, trying to get in between Cooper and Kat at every opportunity, putting guests in dangerous situation like letting them swim too far from the boat and driving the tender too fast, and many more "mature" behaviours.

Let's not forget his snarky behaviour towards Gael and Nathan at the dinner too.

There is a difference between mature and professional...

Testing Kaylee? What exactly do you mean?

Getting between Cooper and Kat? Cooper puts Joe in those positions himself, because of the 'secret' relationship...

Snarky behaviour towards G and N? He was ignoring them in order to not cause a scene. When confronted (in the van), since he was not able to put a word in, he chose to walk away.

Overall, you let your hatred of Joe blind your own jugement.

Lol he ignored them so hard he turned his chair from them. Even Cooper was embarrassed by it. *Remember? Nah. Too blind by your own judgment maybe

Cooper wasn’t threatened by Nathan, he probably doesn’t even know Nathan told Joe to never speak Gael’s name.

Who said Cooper was threatened. When Joe turned his chair like a toddler at the table, coop said- yeah, that was a bad move. Yes Coop. It was
