    If you think an hour between text messages is “the silent treatment” then you’re just neurotic and clingy

      It’s that he only responded when she clarified she was joking.

      It’s not the time between texts, it’s the reaction.

        ping “Oh yeah I never replied”

        Happens all the time, especially having an adult life with kids.

          Why are y’all giving this drunk driving cheater the benefit of doubt?

            You’re right. In fact, I suspect Jaimee wanting to watch “desperate housewives” was her asking to watch secret footage Woods recorded of his wife Elin Nordegren whenever she was distressed. Utterly depraved.


            Edit: Joking aside, “the benefit of the doubt” implies there’s doubt, but you’re manufacturing the doubt. People in a normal, healthy headspace do not think this way about text messages.

                Are you seriously just going to dodge these accusations of Woods recording his distraught wife for his mistress’ amusement? Is there something you’re not telling us about your own cruel voyeurism?

                  What? I’m not the one defending the guy here. I mused that giving a partner the silent treatment until they say the “correct” thing is unhealthy and you jumped down my throat to defend this cruel, drunk driving, cheating asshole.

                    No one is defending Tiger. They’re telling you your argument is flawed. Just because someone is a shitty person doesn’t give you blanket license to make every kind of strawman about them.

                    That’s terrible logic, and resorting to “Oh, so you’re defending him?!!” any time someone disagrees with you is no more valid.

                    For what it’s worth, when I read into these texts I come away with them both being pretty much shitty.
