Your absolutely right champ, I can't disagree with this statement at all.
while that's true, it doesn't give folks the green-light to do whatever the hell they want.
Of course it doesn't, however at the same time people in a marriage have to/or should ENDURE, and it's definitely easier saying it than it is doing it but that's what marriage is all about.
Who in their right mind would keep their family in-tact if the spouse was creeping with over 120+ other people?
For what it's worth I can almost guarantee you that Tiger cared NOTHING about any of those chicks. Here it is the world's richest athlete is flying these chicks on airlines in COACH and feeding them sandwiches from Subway. It's not like he was sharing his money with any of these chicks, in fact most of them said that he was flat out cheap during their encounters. I'm quite sure even before this situation broke out Elin was getting taken care of money-wise just like how most of us would invision Tiger Woods taking care of his wife. That right there alone should tell you Tiger didn't care about any of these chicks, once a dude starts spending his time and money on a chick, that's one of the ways you can tell me might be falling for her, other than that Tiger was treating them as jumpoffs as he should have. At the end of the day Tiger might have been with these jumpoffs during the day but at night he went home to his WIFE.
You make a lot of good points, DK....and here's my theory on Tiger.
Dude has always been a herb...a square...a dork...etc. Even while he was at Stanford, he still probably was awkward around women and had a hard time reaping the rewards of being a top-tier athlete on campus. Of course this is before all the fame/fortune. Skip ahead a couple of years, Tiger is playing pro-golf by now and one of his boys hooks him up with the nanny of one of his kids. He sees a striking blond woman and falls head over heels. Dude is smitten. He's attained the plateu of beauty in his eyes. Tiger wifes her up a little early without having sowed his wild oats as a bachelor. To many women, there's nothing more desirable than a married man....when you factor in the millions of dollars he was worth at this point, Tiger all of a sudden becomes a VERY wanted man. At this point, Tiger is chums w. Oak, Barkley, and Jordan...can you imagine the tales of debauchery(sp?) they are telling him while playing 18 holes of golf? This is most likely an impressional guy hearing all sorts of stuff from athletes who were at the top of their games (except Oak) who tell him how easy it is to keep women on the side while married. Eventually Tiger follows along with what those guys are telling him. He realizes how easy it is to pull women when you're Tiger Woods. You don't need game...you don't need good looks...the type of woman you attract wants you for your $. You have the world at your fingertips, and people will kiss your +%% JUST because of who you are. After a while, cheating with your wife with one woman soon becomes two....that two becomes four, and so on and so on. If he had any sort of "player skills" he would have known how to keep his #!!% on the side and private. Remember....his wife was going thru his phone and saw the texts amongst other things....dude had ONE phone. One.He was living two different lives and that #!!% caught up to him. There's a part of me that thinks that Elin was really blind to everything that was going on outside of their home. She probably never thought in a million years that dude would be creeping on her....hence her reaction on Thanksgiving when she put those golf clubs through the window of his Escalade. Of course this is just my theory, so I'm sure there are plenty of holes in what I'm thinking. I dunno....it's a bad situation all around...and like I said before, I feel really bad for the kids. They are the innocent ones in this whole ordeal, and if mom does get full custody, who knows that she'll say and if they will have any sort of resentment towards their dad.
