The main story centers on a man who received a text from his former crush, now married for seven months, calling him “my love,” and his uncertainty about how to respond. Another user reacted by asking, “But why scared since she is married?”—implying that there is nothing wrong with a married woman addressing another man that way, and by extension, that such behavior is acceptable both ways. This comment is problematic because it normalizes boundary violations in marriage and downplays emotional infidelity. Marriage does not erase the need for respect or accountability; rather, it heightens it. Suggesting that marital status makes such language harmless ignores the trust expected in committed relationships and subtly encourages behavior that can damage marriages and fuel unnecessary conflict.
