ahh women and gold... as old as ?
Re: Price of Infidelity
Why from the other woman?? I never understand that. Its not the "other woman" who broke the marriage, it was her husband.

In this case it take three to tango.
Wife , because she did not see it coming.
Husband because he wanted to have his cake and eat it too.
Mistress, need I say more ?
Good point Gaia, but still.....a woman who knowingly goes into a relationship with the intent to destroy a marriage, she isn't all that innocent either.
My two cents!
The cases are totally different insofar as the cause of action is different. Only a few American states allow a plaintiff to sue for alienation of affection which actually has a person seeking restitution for infidelity.
In the Canadian case, the plaintiff (scorned wife) is suing the insurance company for damages resulting in failure to supervise an employee - the infidelity is a by-product of failure to supervise.
Personally, I’m all for suing the mistress/infidelity partner - cause remember, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned (or man!).
Why not get a little back from the person complicit in breaking up the marriage. Though, by the same token, I’d take the ex-partner for all they were worth as well!
n.. n.. n… niiiiine Millioonnnnn 
Re: Price of Infidelity
Put it this way if the mistress had rebuffed his advances, the chances of him cheating decrease drastically.
Re: Price of Infidelity
I'm not sure if the video mentioned if the guy was punished or not....
Re: Price of Infidelity
I agree she is not innocent and yes it takes three to tango, but like it was said in the video if you're marriage is good a third party can't break it. Plus the other woman had nothing to lose(until the 9 million). The husband had everything to lose.
And lets not forget, he cheated on her numerous times from the start of the marriage, therefore, the 9 million should come out of his skanky pocket.
So whats the next case? Women suing coz husband get hooked with short skirt wearing salesgirl of some shop? or may be wife suing some parents coz their daughter was roaming in the mall in reveling dress and they failed to supervise her?

Hey - the ex-husband should be flattered - that may be the value the wife placed on his companionship - she now has to live without his love and affection - the ex-wife needs something to make up for what she’s now going without…
or may be its new kind of fraud plotted and executed flawlessly? and x-couple will reunite in Vegas?

churi kharboozay per giray ya kharbooza churi per giray...baat aik he hai.
on serious note, from now on every mistress will think ten times before bedding with someone elses husband.
Re: Price of Infidelity
Waisey off topic but, it takes a seriously messed up character to mess up with someone else's husband knowingly. Yukky. And the husband...oh well.
I read in the paper yesterday that this woman (irish) took €26,000 from her fiance, travelled the world and then pretended to be dead in order to avoid him 
She was sentenced to 3 years in prison.

Money*** is*** the root of all evil. The judge said that the woman was a “confidence trickster” lol

Like I said in the other post not very many states recognize "alienation of affection" as a cause of action - it is actually a relic from centuries past - but certain states have not repealed the law.
So, only mistresses in a few states need to worry about being sued.

It's called creative lawyering. Lawyers can make money for filing the lawsuit - whether it gets thrown at early or dismissed later - if the lawyer gets paid - what does he care...
And yes, I could actually see a woman filing a lawsuit for the reasons above - the only problem is based on the reasonable person standard of what an acceptable duty of care is, the lawsuits would not get very far.

well if studies, and researches start projecting positive results then soon or later every state will recognizing it.
besides, handful of people knows about laws and what laws says...so i guess instead of educating them...err encouraging them to keep up with their unfaithfulness, i believe its better to promote rational.
