Relationships 101 – Should you be able to sue your partner’s lover ???
As we seek to engage folks on issues around sexual behavior, we thought there is no better way to talk about sex than that to start an ongoing dialogue about relationships and how we communicate with each other. In that vein, there was a story a few weeks back regarding Dwyane Wade’s wife suit against Gabrielle Union on behalf of her sons for the emotional distress their relationship put on their children and her as the estranged wife.
Should a wife/husband/partner be able to sue the other person assuming that a marriage or union is a contract between two people and another person enters to break that contract ???

Let me just put on my Judge Judy robe for a second. There we go.
No. The contract is between the partners. The lover/interloper/whore has no part in the contract and so cannot be sued. However, it is perfectly legal in the South or any Black or Latin neighborhood to shoot, cut or beat down the offending partner. The offended partner’s kin may do same with impunity.

Okay that’s true but I signed you to my record label and then SONY or Warner Brother’s tries to court and steal my artist. I have the right to sue them. Is it not the same thing. If not, what recourse does a scorn lover/wife/husband have???
