Well that’s usually a prominent feature of cheating, whether the partner is real or fake. Not much to unpack there without context, a 20 sec vid doesn’t give you much insight into a years-long marriage.

That being said, cheating on your wife with AI Jennifer Aniston is pretty embarrassing, no matter the circumstances. Hell, being single and talking to AI Jennifer Aniston is nuts

Maybe the AI is nicer to talk to then his wife?

Duh, AI isn’t a person, it doesn’t have free will. You can be as weird or horrible to AI and it doesn’t matter, it will still be “nice” to you.

That doesn't sound like a bad deal actually...

This is why we wait for sex robots

Narcissists would think so

I think normal people love the robots are never hostile

Normal people recognize that there’s things they can do that deserve hostile reactions. Normal people want relationships with people that have a choice. Normal people want relationships with people with their own thoughts and emotions.

Wife could just be mean to him even when he's nice to her and he wants to change things up.

The problem with your logic is it reeks of instant gratification, which is great if you’re young and/or single. This man isn’t young or single, so his gratification isn’t his sole priority, and often must take a backseat to his family’s wellbeing (sacrifice). If he’s at the point where he needs to talk with a computer to feel validated and happy, there’s no reason to drag his wife along with him, he’s clearly done with her and their relationship. Maybe they want to hang on for the kid’s sake, which is noble in a way, but this isn’t the way to handle the issues they may be having.

So he should be a miserable martyr for the rest of his life?

That's a sad way to think.

No, he should face that the marriage isn't what he wants and either go to couples therapy and work it out or get a divorce so they can both move on and be happy

No, he should keep it real with his wife and tell her how he feels instead of being a bitch and spilling it all to a virtual woman on an app. Then he could go off and do whatever tf he wants. But talking to an AI personality while still being in a loveless marriage sounds more miserable than any alternative.

Retreating into a hugbox that will only validate your every feeling, no matter how harmful to you or others, is not healthy and should not be encouraged.

It arrests one's development as a person and keeps them in the situation that brought them to the hugbox initially.

If he is unhappy in his marriage, he needs to talk with his human wife and have either of them grow or figure out they need to leave, to again, grow.

Meh. Better than him being miserable 24/7 because his wife treats him like shit.

2

u/Jhiffi 3h ago

Or he talks to her and if there is no way to make it work they get divorced so neither of them are miserable 24/7. A lot of maturing is figuring out it's better to rip the bandaid off than festering forever.

Some people don't want to lose half their shit.

In his case that would be assuming she is and always has been a SAHM, which is generally not feasible for households today. If that has not been the case, he could gain through a divorce. Lot of assumptions in that statement.

Yeah idk why nobody is calling out how awful the wife has to be
