Indeed.
That's why American teenagers always seem so happy go lucky and innocent and cheerful, can be seen as a good thing I suppose.

I feel sorry for his wife and kids, although I don't think this relationship will last for the pupil and her ex Teacher.

People form relationships often with those they are most contact with in life.
Married people grow apart, people change. Not ideal but that's life. If both of them were consenting adults, if his 'married' relationship was on the rocks and beyond repair: I see no reason for a married couple to remain in that marriage if both of them are not equally happy. How often does anyone in the celeb world get flack when the rich sugar daddies have the young 18 year old bimbos having off their arms? Very rarely when we are talking of 18 & 41 year olds. No one bats an eyelid these days. In fact: the guy gets all the slaps on the back for being able to pull a 'young one'. Do the rules change because these two people are normal everyday folk? Morals are personal to individuals - one set of morals doesn't mean they are wrong, it's simply a different set of morals based on our own subjective judgements. If he made a clean break from the wife, from a marriage that was already dead - I'd far rather see 2 people be happy, than have 3 people unhappy. It might not be nice, but it's life. Who are we or anyone else to say that he should remain in an unhappy relationship? Is he meant to stay in an unhappy relationship because it will make his 'wife' happy? That in my mind is absurd. The messy part is the student/teacher relationship - that's where it gets a bit out of control but given that he resigned from his job before he moved in with her - I don't see why that really has any impact. Different if he were still teaching and she still was his student. Do I think it will last? In all reality, no but that doesn't mean he can't make the choice on whether he wants to be happier with someone else. It's his choice. Last edited by Pyramid*; 08-04-2012 at 03:04 PM. |

My god she looks beautiful.
Anyway she's old enough and his not her Teacher anymore so I think it's fine, although a bit weird.
