I'm surprised at how many STers are doing this about Tiger. Trying to apply rational thought to indiscretions about sex and love.

It is easy for us all to calmly follow the news about Tiger and point out the stupid things he is doing. We are not the ones succumbing to temptation and sluts and infidelity.

"You don't do this when there are children involved." Well, duh, but really we are acting like no married man has ever cheated on a woman, and we are acting like no cheaters ever do it repeatedly because maybe they have a problem.

That's not what I'm saying though. He is neither the first nor last to do what he did. - musubi Dec 8, 09:51 9
- He doesn't have to still love her, if he simply believes he still does. He can fool himself into thinking this, if it means keeping half a billion. -- nm - con_carne Dec 8, 09:53 8
  - love is a feeling, if you feel it, it's real. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 8, 09:53 7
    - I hate to keep beating this drum, but money is also something that people love. A lot. -- nm - con_carne Dec 8, 09:57 3
      - and? -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 8, 09:57 2
        
        Why does it matter whether the love is real or not? Sometimes, it's just something that people say, and we can't unprove it. -- nm - con_carne Dec 8, 09:59 1
        
        afaik, Tiger has said nothing. this started with MY comment that maybe he loves her. - Elf Andie Dec 8, 10:00
    - So when Hotkiss comes in next week totally head over heels over the latest cute barista she saw, is that real love? (nm) - musubi Dec 8, 09:55 2
      - *lasting* love is something more, i totally agree. but how else do you define a feeling other than 'i feel it.' - Elf Andie Dec 8, 09:56 1
        
        That's what I'm saying though. Tiger might still have feelings for Elin. He had lots of reasons to stay with her. - musubi Dec 8, 10:00
