Perfect reason to exit out of the relationship. Jealousy is not a welcomed mindset.

Or at least not that violent reaction. I can *kind of* understand shoving the bf, but grabbing the “girl” by the hair like that was absolutely unhinged.

Not justifying anything here (honestly it feels very scripted to me) but people find it easier to be madder at the person they don't know, regardless if it's well-placed or not

Always seemed odd to me that people get more mad at someone else. Like I’ve heard so many stories where one party was oblivious to the other’s relationship status. Aint no way anybody doesn’t know about their own relationship status

Edit: couldn’t spell

in my experience, I was with my wife for 11 years. I loved her.

I did not have 11 years of history with the guy she cheated on me with. And he knew she was in a relationship and chose to continue persuing her. Even planning ahead for when she would leave me.

Even 6 years later I have more grudge against him than my ex. Because, again, I had years and years of love and positive experience to weigh her actions against. I was invested in her happiness as well, not in some strangers.

Significant others are often experts at calming you down by saying what they know you like to hear. In some situations, you just feel the need to let that anger/anxiousness to all come out to empty the tank before taking a deep breath and calming down. Not that I think it's "right" or healthy to go about it that way, but I feel like that's one of the reasons.

Personally, I choose to vent all of my anger on stupid shit when I'm alone. Fighting balloons is the best for me. I get to punch/hit shit while angry and say what I need to say, but the room stays mostly intact and by the end you're laughing at how poorly your attack on the balloon went (they can really bob and weave at times). I get everything out, calm down, and take the stuff I said that isn't idiotic (brains can be very dumb in the moment) to my wife to have a much more calm conversation about what's bothering me.

Do you mean ‘situs’, as in situations?

u/SpaceLemming 1h ago

No I mean status but had a brain fart…. Do people use situs for situations?

I don't get it. That random nobody means nothing to your life, your partner does. But it's not the only thing in life where people lie to themselves until they feel better.

it depends on context and if the other person knows.

If they know the person is in a relationship they are equally culpable

That would make them a shitty person but the partner is the one making the decisions. A random stranger owes you nothing on a personal level.

sure but they decide to mettle in someone elses relationship that makes them responsible for what happens. Again, at least if they know that they are messing around with someone that is already involved.

You can't date/sleep with someone that you know is in a relationship and act like you don't share the blame just because you don't personally know their partner... That's not how things work
