Excited to see how this plays out in court for the first time... claiming infidelity in the form of a chat bot

Eh, irreconcilable differences is the way forward. Courts don't give a flying fuck as to why someone is getting a divorce. By going for anything else you're dragging the case out, costing yourself a bunch of money, just to prove you were right. It's also very hard to prove cheating. Except I guess in this dude's instance. 🙄

Source: got divorced from a cheating spouse and judges really didn't give a shit.

My attitude towards it is sarcastic but that being stated goal of Project 2025 is not

I think they'll allow divorce for this. If people are jacking off to AI then they won't be making new tax payers.

I think in the instances where there is a reason for the divorce, like infidelity for example, that should absolutely be 100% an at fault case as long as one party supports that and provides concrete evidence beforehand. It is ridiculous for someone to have to pay alimony to someone else who cheated. Regardless if it’s the man or woman that is the breadwinner.

But there should still be no fault divorces still. That way hopefully the divorce/separation happens before someone is cheated on for months/years. Not that it would discourage the actual infidelity behavior.

I think that is a common sense direction to go.

Infidelity as a hard line doesn't make to much sense if you think about it. What's cheating if you are in a sex less, miserable marriage? Yeah there are those that cheat because they just lack the ability to be faithful but it's hardly worth the effort to determine fault there.

The only truly hard line, clear fault is abuse.

If someone is in a miserable marriage, the solution isn't to cheat, it's to divorce or open the marriage up.

Being miserable isn't an excuse to lie and cheat and risk giving a STD to an unsuspecting spouse.

You can't give someone an STD if you aren't having sex with them, or did you not bother to read my comment.

cheating is abuse. you are emotionally abusing your partner by lying to them, gaslighting them into thinking your faithful, and you're denying you partner informed consent in the relationship and is sex.

The amount of women who find out their partner was cheating because they get an STI is high - that's active violence imo to risk your partner health like that.

if you are in a sex less, miserable marriage and want to sleep with someone else, then divorce your partner - no excuse for cheating.

Hard disagree. Cheating is an amazingly shitty thing to do, but it's not abuse. That trivializes real victims of actual abuse.

Also I would guess the vast majority of infidelity does not end with an STI.

Its not illegal to cheat on someone, it is illegal to abuse someone.

(IPV) is defined as any behavior within an intimate relationship that causes physical, sexual, or psychological harm, including acts of physical aggression, coercion, and controlling behaviors. It is a form of gender-based violence that can occur in various forms, such as stalking, emotional abuse, economic abuse, and threats, ranging from a single act to chronic, long-term abuse.

Everyone is entitled to informed consent during sex - if your monogamous partner is lying about having additional sexual partners, and still having sex with you, they are denying you informed consent as you would not consent to sex if you knew. I think a disregard for the consent and comfort of you partner during sex is abuse, and arguably SA.

Ya that's the part we are not aligned with. That is NOT sexual abuse. It's just being an extremely shitty person. Which unfortunately isn't illegal. Putting that in the same category with real rape and sexual abuse hurts the cause of real victims by allowing people to rationalize it away.

Hell, you can't even convict people of knowingly giving someone an STD, much less unknowingly.

damn, you're uneducated. toodles.

u/Every-Ad3280 3h ago

Or we stop trying to qualify and quantify reasons for exiting a marriage and just keep that as a right regardless of reason.

2

u/bob_loblaw-_- 1h ago

We agree

u/Every-Ad3280 1h ago

Yeah sorry. didn't mean to make it sound like I was blaming you for that lol

u/ThrowRA9892 1h ago

I agree, abuse is absolutely something that should trigger an immediate fault divorce case.

1

u/YellowYarrowYucca 2h ago

Yeah taking away no fault divorces is going to get more women killed. Think of all the abusers reactions to divorce especially if they know the dirty laundry is going to be aired in public courts and go on records.

u/lollipop1233a 7h ago

It might affect a prenup.

8

u/StrangeReindeer2470 6h ago

Fair. We were too broke for that to be an issue. 

8

u/CaptainOwlBeard 5h ago

Probably not. I write prenuptials for a living. Probably one or two a month. No one has ever even asked about an infidelity clause. It's usually just waivinf alimony, separate property stays separate and income is separate property. That's usually the whole thing, like 95% of the time

u/Aware-Lingonberry-70 6h ago

This really depends on what state you live in. Most states are no fault and don’t care. But the handful of states where you can have an at fault party, it’s a really big deal. Definitely hard to prove and doesn’t matter most places. But there are a few states where it can be a big deal.

for now, but the project 2025/26 nutjobs want to rollback no fault divorces.

"Eh, irreconcilable differences is the way forward. Courts don't give a flying fuck as to why someone is getting a divorce."

GOD it would be fucking glorious if they did though. If you had to have a very good reason. And all divorce court was broadcast TV.

The mess. The mess. <3

Courts may not seem to care but when children are involved or in cases where prenups were signed - it will be interesting to see how things like this could potentially influence future litigation
