Quote From: PleasanceJust a little tidbit in response to your defense of Angie...which I clearly don't understand.
All 4 people have cheated !
If Angie in the bathroom with Dennis between her legs is not cheating, then what is?
If Angie in a bed with Dennis is not cheating , then what is.
I understand that the show made it clear that they were not "sleeping together" or she says they haven't "done it."..........but the emotional cheating is there and present LOUD AND CLEAR.
They are having an EMOTIONAL AFFAIR IF NOTHING ELSE ........THAT IS CHEATING ON YOUR PARTNER, YOUR HUSBAND OR YOUR WIFE.
Are we clear on that ? ....................or would you like to talk to me about a value system that is different from the rest of ours. ???
Angie and Dennis are cheating with one another.....on their spouses..........and unfortunately on their children, too.
Angie is doing this for all HER OWN REASONS, none of which is admirable......... ....not at all.
So as I said previously, Angie and the other 3 have all cheated.
And so it goes........
PS....I noticed that the emotion icon for your post to me.....shows that you were angry when you posted......are there things about this show that trigger things close to home?
On another note.....I can assure you that when I watch a Dr. Phil show.....I watch very closely, closely indeed !
You consider two people talking and having a friendship an affair just because they are from the opposite sex? I obviously don't. I have a male friend that I have been friends with for a long time and my husband knows and also knows that it would never go any further than that. Do you consider this an emotional affair? So, yes, my values are different from yours because I believe a man and a woman can have a friendship even though they are married to other people. I think Angie has gone through a lot that we don't know about and if she can confide in Dennis and he makes her laugh, than good for her. If Amber doesn't like it and Dennis is not willing to give up his friends for his wife, than their marriage is weak to begin with. I would never choose a friend over my husband. No, none of the things about that show hit "close to home" with me, I have a wonderful family and a loving relationship with my husband as well as good relationships with my close friends of the same sex and also of the opposite sex. I feel bad for you and your partner (if you have one) that you are so close minded about having friends of the opposite sex.
Dr. Phil’s guests feel like another woman is moving in on their men. Amber thought Angie was her best friend, until she noticed her husband, Dennis's, daily phone conversations with her and their unusually close friendship. Dennis claims their relationship is strictly platonic, but Angie's boyfriend, Nick, is also doubtful ... especially after catching them sleeping in the same bed. Then, Michelle says she had no idea her life would become so complicated after Kevin left his girlfriend, Joan, to be with her. Is Joan trying to win Kevin back, or are the ex-lovers really just friends? Share your thoughts here.
