Unpopular Opinion with David & Michelle texting scandal.
Before I say anything let me just put this disclaimer out there. I do not condone cheating at all in any form of it.
That being said, while I think David is liar & wrong for lying about the text message thing & he’s wrong for thinking Michelle is stupid enough to believe it, I think David should’ve been flat out honest with Michelle. He should’ve stopped walking on eggshells when it comes to her & their relationship because he knows like everyone else does that Michelle doesn’t like him at all & nothing is changing that. Michelle treated him like absolute shit & follows through with telling him every other day that he’s pretty much a piece of shit & “I’m better than you” at life type of insults & he felt driven to the point of wanting attention from other women. It’s not right at all for him to cheat but I definitely understand why he did what he did. He felt miserable & probably took at the chance to feel happiness with another woman. He just should’ve been honest about it. Michelle has no problem shitting on him about everything in his life, he should’ve just told her why he did what he did & that he doesn’t want to deal with her anymore. Michelle has had numerous moments where she wanted to end things & that moment where she was talking to Dr Cal with David would’ve been the perfect time to end things to me. Put it all out there so that’s everyone is on the same page.
Say what you want about David and his life situation, he’s treated Michelle with respect & honestly tried to work this out so much but his mistake was seeing past all the disrespect & insults that she threw at him & still tried to work it out with her. He should’ve took everything that she said about him for what it actually is & move on instead of trying to see past the disrespect for the sake of the marriage.
