Every time I see Silda Spitzer’s face in that video I feel so bad for her. She looks like someone who’s just suffered a mortal injury but hasn’t fallen over yet.
Women who do that do it for different reasons. Chances are they are having extramarital affairs too so it’s really no big deal. As long as the money and status is there they are fine.
Money and status wouldn’t be nearly enough for me to go through a press conference like that. Even if I ultimately decided to stay with that person, I’m afraid they’d have to face the media alone!
At least we have a chance to think about our limits, and the possibilities, before we are faced with a public revelation!
Perhaps Mrs. Spitzer had run this scenario through her mind over the years, and was mentally prepared for the event.
I totally agree that deciding to stay with someone when they cheat is really a personal choice and I give them credit. But I in no way could ever see myself standing beside my cheating husband at a press conference.
It has to be a painful and embarassing experience, even if the woman is doing the same thing. She is a strong one I must say.
Calypso, I do too. I’d surely develop a complex if I found out my hubby has been keeping house with that other woman half her age.
I agree with Calypso’s apt description as well. Not only do I not understand Mrs Spritzer’s attendance at that press conference, I don’t understand Spritzer allowing her that extra humiliation. If he asked her to go, he’s even more of a bastard than I thought he was.
I personally would NOT be doing standing by him, chances are I wouldn’t even be in attendance of the press conference. I have had acquaintances though who would go through anything just to achieve their goals.
Yeah, I think I would have to say, “You got yourself into this alone, now get yourself out alone!”
I don’t know what is really achieved in the public’s eye when the wife decides to stand by the husband.
I think in political situations it’s meant to subtly convey that if his wife forgives him and stands by him, surely the public can do the same. Usually press conferences like that are a last-ditch attempt to salvage what’s left of one’s career.
Remember the Kobe Bryant rape case?
He, too, held a news conference. His wife was sitting next to him with this HUGE, new diamond ring on her hand.
Wives married to cheating public figures usually see a pay off that the rest of use wouldn’t have available to us!
LOL
Liza, you could be right about that!
I just can imagine that this is the real reality behind the scenes.
Man I just don’t think I could do that even if there was a big payoff but then again I am not in a situation where I am in the public eye.
Calypso, mmmm…. on the other hand, female actresses have no problem leaving their cheating mates to the wolves.
SageMother, or…. perhaps maybe this is not the first time he’s been caught cheating on her. Just because this is the first time that he’s been publicly brought to the stands, doesn’t mean that Mrs. Spitzer hasn’t had to put up with this.
Tater03, I guess they have to show that united front for their constituents.
So true, Diva.
Taking age into account, they have probably had other indiscretions that we have never heard about.
Liza, politician wives are not usually cut from the same cloth as us ordinary women. It’s like as if they are stuck back in the medieval times and walking away is not an option.
mollyL, for all we know, she might have offered to stand by her man.
Liza, I would also make sure that he doesn’t hear the end of it if I decided to stay with him. I am not one of those girls that can just move and forget that he cheated on me.
Calypso, LOL! The press will have a field day on that one! Good thing you are not a wife of cheating politican!
Liza, I really do think that they’re constituents expect it and probably hoping for a way for the masses to forgive if the missus does.
Calypso, exactly.
SageMother, well, a big diamond like that really certainly can forgive a multitude of sins.
All I can say is that it would have to be one huge diamond. Or heck, why stop at one? How about three or four huge diamonds, and a new car, and a new…well, you get the idea!
Imaginary Diva…I see your point. I wonder how much they could ever pay me to do that? It’s not worth it?
SageMother, if we can only be a fly on the wall in some of these households!
I don’t think a huge diamond would do it for me. I want stock options, royalties, full ownership of one of the vacation homes…..it’s the little things that make live grand.
Calypso, an AMEX card with no monthly spending limit????
Liza, LOL!
I still would settle for an AMEX card with no spending limit…..
SageMother, LOL!
That would do it for me also.
You girls are something else. I know you are kidding though. You know what just occurred to me, for the women who stand by these men. Do the men feel like they can do it again, since they know their wives will still stand by them?
Liza, for sure!
If I knew that things I do that are wrong are being condoned, it’s just human nature to keep on doing it until somebody says “that’s not cool”. It doesn’t only pertain to cheating…. but you see where I am going with this?
In the end every spouse whose partner has cheated will make their own choices for their own reasons. We may think we know better or we would make different choices, but unless you are in that individual situation you don’t really know.
I know what you mean deltic but it is very hard to stand by and witness the pain that the cheating has caused to a friend or relative without wanting to protect or support them.
Liza, I don’t see how you can make a sweeping statement that the women who stay with their cheating men are probably having affairs themselves. I think the exact opposite is true and that they stay because they love their men!
