Adultery: a crime

[Baukem]

i think its a good law, but they need to both punish the man and woman if one of them is cheating.

So if I say to someone "Meet me at 6:00" and they say "OK, I'll be there" and then turn up at 6:01, how much am I entitled to?

Promises aren't legally binding unless it's clear that both parties intended them to be.

"The law presumes that social agreements are not intended to be legally binding."

Of course, if there are special circumstances the law might take a different view. For example, if you promised to let someone move in with you and he sold his apartment only for you to then renege on that promise, he might be able to sue you.

United States Law might be different, I'm basing this on the good old UK justice system.

Notice my example I put there. For example if I tell someone that let me borrow money "Ok ill pay you back in a week" and I dont he can sue me for that, even though I never signed a contract.

Doesnt really relate to adultery anyway. What was your point? lol.

Someone brought up that a promise would be legaly binding so I was pointing out that it is. :thumb:

...what?

If a man cheats on his wife, both man and wife should be punished? Is that what you're saying?

No, he's saying if a man cheats on his wife, he should equally pay for it as much as, if a woman chetas on a man. Got it, punk?

What's the point of even making it a law? The government sure as hell doesn't care, and what's with the discrepancy in who gets what?
