Jessica's "wow" moments may be "duh" moments to people who populate Jezebel, a site that spends a lot of time on these issues. I don't see that as a bad thing; we probably aren't her audience. And I say bravo to her for having this show on a network that otherwise is populated with horrible women-objectifying shows…
@slightlyhardup: Glad to help!
@this_charming_one: Yeah, I've been waiting for the Alpert ep for a loooooong time!
@la.donna.pietra: Hearted for reminding me of him! Now I shall sit at my desk and daydream....
@MsKiyum: loves me some Titus Pullo.
@slightlyhardup: Yeah — it doesn't give away that much. And it makes for some cool ponder-y questions.
I love the secret disappearing inkish effect!
@femme-bot: How about not telling people what they mean and toning down the snottiness? It seems out of proportion.
@Norton: Apparently, it *can* be against the civil law to interfere with a marriage. She did win the suit, after all.
@Stirge: There is an easy way to understand this as a contract-based claim, not a property-based claim. Corporations sue other corporations all the time for tortious interference with contract.
@nolongerinacubiclestillawhore: Plenty of people on here are feeling free to heap derision on this woman for her decision and her feelings, and plenty also are questioning whether the other woman is blameworthy at all. I completely agree that it takes two, but as I said above, telling the victim of infidelity that…

@Sweetie: I'm sure that nasty little swipe will make her feel great. How about making your point without attacking a sister?
@JulieSunday: Also, once I scrolled through the pictures, I figured out that the picture was of the three woman who wrote the articles and of three women who had been featured in previous articles in Newsweek. It made me wonder if this was a bit of a knee-jerk response.
@rd2uk: There are other ways to help make change than donations; I certainly don't think that is required. As for making it work, I guess the best answer is that at least now you don't have to fear losing your house one day for lack of available health insurance, as so many have.
@Never_Nude: I completely agree with you that life gets a whole lot better when you move on, as I did, too. But it gets my back up when folks tell a woman whose husband cheated that she's somehow not allowed to be angry at the other woman. I am over it, and very, very happy out of the marriage now, but I cannot…
@hsirt: You are not the only one. I suspect many of the people wringing their hands about this have never been the victims of infidelity.
The woman with whom my now ex-husband had an affair had a history of affairs with married men. In the book "Should You Leave," by psychiatrist Peter Kramer, he examines a type of woman he calls "La Carmencita," — a woman who seems to have a sixth sense for an unhappy married man. I do think there are women out there…
@jeninmotion: well put.
