There are two sides to every story. Was Tiger wrong? Yup; but why was his wife content to stay home and play with the kids for the months when Tiger was out on the road by himself. Why didn’t she travel with the kids, with him while he was on tour? If she had, would he have cheated? Would he have been tempted?
When a wife makes herself unavailable for sex, either by rejection or by intentional absence - and other options become available, what does she think is going to happen?
IMHO, she had her life set (Millions in the bank, her lifestyle fully funded, kids, she never has to lift a finger the rest of her life - not bad for a bikini-model has-been). Once she had what she wanted, she didn’t care whether Tiger lived or died. Her needs were met, and that’s all that mattered. Now, she can take Millions, and play the victim .... her perfect ‘checkmate’.
Tiger’s behavior after he was married was no different than before he was married. Maybe Tiger didn’t want Elin to travel with him.
You have a lot of suspicions, but nothing to back it up with.
Do I really understand you to say that it’s ok for a man to have sex with someone other than his wife because she is not there? Yikes, does your wife know you feel this way? Interesting but wrong.
Wrong. There are THREE sides to every story: Yours, mine, and the truth.
(old cop saying)
Um... if she’s at home and he’s gone, how is that “intentional absence” on her part?
No. I’m pretty sure Jesus wouldn’t say any of that.
You are making a lot of assumptions. She did after all give birth to two children. Tiger seems to be a sex addict and probably wanted Elin to stay home so he could score with more chicks. The fact that she (apparently) flew into a rage after discovering the text messages shows that she did not know what a sham Tiger was beforehand.

You have told us much about the kind of man you are, but I can take nothing ‘in general’ from your comments. Most men do NOT cheat, and yet, I’m pretty sure that all of us have had ‘other options made available’, at one time or another.
Of course we love to spout our opinions around here, it’s what we do. But you know nothing about Tiger’s wife, her life, or anything other than what you have read and chosen to believe from the mainstream media.
Congrats on forming your opinion from all of that accumulated knowledge.
The Museum of Really Lame Excuses has a call in for you.
Not easy to travel with 2 small children. Not easy at all.
I would agree she should have done some of that, but I'm sure it wouldn't always be the best thing to do, i.e. when the kids were still in school and so forth.
Her not traveling with him is no excuse for his behavior.

You know this, how?
