What would you have done with Tiger?

Tiger Woods has everything.



Amazing career...wonderful wife...beautiful kids.



yet he could not resist temptations. How would you have handled that situation? Would you have left him? If not...what would you have asked him to do and how would you have felt and is it different because he is Tiger?

If all are equal do not treat him as being special.

I agree with �dgrimater�, not because he is Tiger Wood or another celebrity the things are different.

If Arch allows it, we could generalize the question to �what would you have done with your husband/wife?�� Then� I think that they have the right to go away because the �covenant of marriage� has been broken. BUT� they have the right to forgive and forget the incident [the same way God has forgiven us so many times] � I know that that sounds hard, because we are human beings, so imperfect!!... I am just saying that if the �covenant�s transgressor� repents and ask for forgiveness it is possible to forgive and to re-start the engagement/marriage again� or� it is possible that marriage is not re-started even when we forgive� because there are too many things �attached� to an incident like infidelity and the consequences of it could be more complicated�

I have read that it is more common that women forgive infidelity than men, there is more than one reason for it to be that way, and one of them could be the so called �machismo�. Whoever, God calls us all to forgive, mostly men, because men are the head of marriage as Christ is the head of the Church. I have thought a lot about why it is so different, I mean why, mostly in Latin countries, women suffer adultery from their husbands [been there!!!] more than men from the wives� and the fact that women have to forgive adultery more commonly than men.

There is a very interesting scripture in Jeremiah chapter 3 [Kings James version] when Jehovah speaks to Israel/Jerusalem because of her apostasy/adultery�



1They say, if a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man's, shall he return unto her again? Shall not that land be greatly polluted? But thou hast played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to me, saith the LORD.



How many times has God forgiven his people/Bride? Something to think about it�

She will have to learn to trust him again. It is up to him to make her feel secure and safe.

It's a long journey but it can be done.

Riveroflife, you have a point!!! You are so right.

It is up to him to fight the good battle for her again, harder battle than the first one, when he "conquered" her heart.

If he is really repent and if he" is sure himself" about his love for her, he will succeed, no matter how deep she has been hurt.

How would I have handled it?

I don't know. And I hope and pray I never find out for myself.



Would I have left him?

I don't know. Probably. Maybe. I'm not sure. After all, God has forgiven me so much. Marriage is not something you should turn your back on so quickly or easily, even if it is an "approved", Biblically sound, reason to leave.



It would be up to him to gain back my trust. He would have to work really, really hard at it over a long period of time. It is possible to do.



I don't see someone as hedonistic as Tiger Woods doing that, though. But I could be wrong and I don't want to judge.

it's crazy how many women would stay with or want to stay with their guy if he cheats, but if a woman cheats on her guy, he'll leave her in a heartbeat.

roger. on the whole though. another study i heard on this morning show said this was the case though, when talking about this topic. the point of it was, i think, that men are more likely to leave because both the initial act, and then the reconciliation is incompatible with the male software we're programmed with. again, for the most part, not in all cases though. but when it comes to that with men there's no two ways about it: break up WILL happen. but with girls they or some seem to want or be more open to working it out. i don't know if that's a stupid new wave of secular thought or if it's just always come naturally, but yeah...

I agree with Given!!

Perhaps this is a prime example for why we should be equally yoked?

I feel sorry for his whole family, especially the kids.. :(
