Silda Spitzer
Stupid or Loyal? You decide.
Readers I call on you to decide. Leave a comment or two letting us know what you think is really going down inside Silda Spitzer’s head. In observance of Women’s History month I feel it is only right to dedicate an entire post to the recent sex scandal that corrupts modern day politics to show America, just how much BS women put up with during their marriage. I am a strong believer in the statement, “behind every strong woman is a very supportive husband” and vice versa.
But even more intricate and to the point of today’s post is the role played by the first ladies. Should Silda leave Eliot? Should she publicly defame his name? Or should she stand by his side, show her support and loyalty to the man she calls her husband? Understanding that the man she took sacred vows with took it upon himself to bury her name and public image with his poor choices. But, I am not here to discuss his lies, his prostitution get-aways, as that debate dates back to the beginning of time, when women realized that men will pay any sum of cash to delight in a strange women’s fun dip. I am also not here to discuss if his actions are wrong. Of course they are!!!! hello, anyone out there? Eliot knows he is wrong and Silda for sure knows how much she truly can’t stand to look in his face. Disgust is usually the emotion that sums it up.
Anytime a married man steps out on his wife it is illegal, check your marriage license detail for Adultery and let me know what it says. Do Not Pass Go, do Not collect $200 if you cheat on your loved one. In fact, in divorce court your ass is on the line, hi and dry.
Anytime a committed man steps out on his significant other it is a tear at the foundation of trust and love. Many times after adultery has been committed people remain in the relationship and many times people walk, as they believe in “once a cheater, always a cheater” rule.
In all cases I think it is important to figure out why, when and how did all things happen? From the beginning, why did the cheater believe that going outside the relationship would be beneficial to them? Why did the cheater decide to the throw away or say goodbye to the relationship they were currently committed to? I would want to know if Silda knew about the prostitution? Most women in Silda’s case sense the lies and know whats going down, some just don’t act on it. Others act immediately and take full steps to move on with their lives. But I ask, how easy is it to move on realistically, when all of your life has been woven into this man’s life that you now call your family?
It is also important to know what is at stake, what can be lost and never replaced? Most of the times it is the intangible things like, trust and true unscathed, untainted gullible love that mean that most. Finance is always a true ringer in one’s decisions to walk or stay, but sometimes not the only. Remember time is something that will always go forward and can never be taken back. Hurt is something that can be soothed but actions that take place in any given space and time, occur and usually if held under the sheets, will surely come out into the light on good day. One has to have walked on both sides of the issue to really understand the boundaries. A lot of times things take place without true rumination and going back in time is all that we ask. At this point in this post I would like to take the time to say sorry to any and all I have ever hurt in this wild game we play called love, not that I have committed an Eliot Spitzer, but I do know what it means to be the cheated on and cheater and neither is a walk in the park.

In response to all the fuss about what Ms. Wall-Spitzer should do, I think we need to give them room (and privacy) to work out THEIR marriage! I love my husband and would be incredibly wounded and disappointed about him hiring a sex worker, but I also would take into account what was going on in our marriage, lives, etc. No one ever knows what a marriage is about unless they are in it.
From what I have read (not much, but some), Ms. Wall-Spitzer is a woman with a brain and is quite capable of using it! Let HER decide her marriage fate. Respect whatever decision she makes. It’s her marriage, her family!
You should read the essay on prostitution “A She-Savior” by the well-known Russian author Mikhail Armalinsky. It was published in Moscow edition of his Selected Works http://www.mipco.com/english/introVozn.html
I will be happy to send you the text as attachment or here is the link: http://www.mipco.com/english/SheSavior.html
The main idea of the essay “A She-Savior” is that the legalization of prostitution must be based on a return of its divine, sacred character, so that prostitution will be considered the most honorable profession, the one closest to God, the holiest.
Silda is an educated woman. So why was she standing beside her sex-loving hubby? Then I thought about it differently. Silda agreed to give up her life for this man to be a loving mother and supportive wife. She knew what to expect when Eliot entered the political zoo (Yes it’s a zoo because its pure madness taking place). Over the years you have to become numb to survive the zoo. I think Silda was beyond numbed and drugged up as she stood beside her husband’s side. But its all part of the role of being a politician’s wife and Silda plays the roll well. In the end I think that it can go two ways Silda will file for divorce after the dust settles or seek marriage counseling and live happily ever after, that’s what the Pattersons did right?
