Criminal Conversation

Dear woofer:

Greetings. Typically yes, it does only apply to hertosexual intercourse. How will you prove that she had a sexual relationship with a woman? Might be very difficult if she will not admit it. Thank you.

She has admitted it to family and friends.

I guess my reply got missed. She has admitted her affair to our sons and a few other people. Her actions have destroyed a 26 year marriage and left me emotionally devastated. Ms. Fritts stated that “typically […] it [Criminal Conversation] does only apply to heterosexual intercourse.” The implication is that atypically Criminal Conversation may apply to a homosexual affair. Do I have grounds or not?

I am so sorry for you and your sons I have the same but she was with a man but still wrong is wrong. I will say this to you a cheater is a loser you are not the loser she has a problem and she never thought of what would happen not just to her but to all the people she has touched in her life. She has a problem it sounds like and needs to be taken care of. Mine has a problem as well it was EGO and alot more then just that but I am over that and her now it is time to move on with life you should do the same move on. The road is long but you can do it I am sure of it just think positive about yourself and keep your sons near you so the 3 of you can get over this bad thing.
I am truely sorry and hope all will get better
Thank you

Dear woofer:

Why are you trying to use criminal conversation and not alienation of affection?

My wife had an adulterous relationship with her girlfriend. Does Criminal Conversation only apply to heterosexual intercourse?
