Sure I’ve thought about how life would be different if I had the money and fame of celebrities…but I wouldn’t want this.

Check out Sandra Bullock trying to leave her house here. OMG!

If you missed Tiger’s interview he did on Sunday night on ESPN, here it is.


For me, this interview seemed much more genuine than he scripted apology that I don’t think he even wrote. For his family and for himself, I hope he truly is sorry.

I’m still trying to get over the Sandra Bullock affair story - she’s America’s sweetheart who doesn’t deserve this at all!

But here’s a weird coincidence, Sandra isn’t the first Oscar winner who ended up divorce soon after she won the award.

Take a look at this list:

Halle Berry, Kate Winslett, Hillary Swank, Reese Witherspoon and now Sandra Bullock?!

What gives? Was the relationship doomed before the envelope was opened and read? Or were these women so busy working on their successful and busy careers, that their men were feeling neglected and in the background so they decided to cheat?

Hang in there Sandra, it’s his loss!

We found this article on the Yahoo! Personals about how to affair-proof your relationship. Here’s part of that article:

Affairs do not happen out of the blue and rarely happen because someone is a bad person. Cheating is caused by one single factor: “Lack.”

So, how do you avoid getting to this point in a relationship? Below are seven ways to avoid the “lack” and prevent a potential affair.
 
1. Avoid complacency. Don’t ever take your relationship for granted. Partnerships need to be nourished daily by a kind word, appreciation, a loving kiss, a smile. Complacency is a warning signal that you and your partner are out of touch with each other.
 
2. Keep the lines of communication open. Don’t sweep issues under the rug. They won’t go away! Learn ways to resolve differences so that recurring arguments don’t continue.
 
3. Pay attention to your gut. If you’re feeling something isn’t quite right in your relationship, 99 percent of the time you’re correct. Find a way to approach your partner to talk about things. Keep your relationship current by checking in on a weekly basis to make sure problems aren’t building up.
 
4. Find time for each other. Don’t get so busy that you forget to have a date with your partner. Make time away from chores and work to renew your loving feelings. Remember how important your mate is to you. Tell them, by making time for them.
 
5. Know when it’s a time of stress and pay attention to your partner even more. Some common trigger times for extra stress in a relationship are job changes, health problems, changes in finances, and the death of a family member or friend. During these stressful periods, pay extra attention to your relationship. Let your partner know you’re there, and make even more time to connect with each other.
 
6. Understand the real issues in your relationship. Learn tools for resolving arguments. Avoid blaming, shaming, and the need to always be right in an argument. Learn what you’re really fighting about so that you can resolve your issues. If you’re fighting about the wrong thing, you’ll never resolve arguments.
 
7. Always remember what it was that made you fall in love with your partner. Too often we allow our disagreements to cloud our love for our significant other, and we forgot why we even fell in love! Keep your sense of humor. Give your partner the benefit of the doubt and don’t make them your enemy.

Avoid the “lack” and affair-proof your relationship by staying conscious of yourself and your partner. Nurture each other and keep the lines of communication open.

Here are some general ways to know you might have crossed the line from healthy sexual interest to sexual addiction or compulsion:

1. You lie

For Parker, the sex addiction counselor, this is the No. 1 way you know you’ve crossed the line: when you make up stories to get sex.

“If you lie with women to get them to have sex with you, you’re a predator and an addict,” he says.

2. Sex consumes you

If your interest in sex runs your life, you have a problem, says Robert Weiss, a social worker and founder of the Sexual Recovery Institute. He says addicts “are always preoccupied with hitting on someone, or picking someone up, or getting home to look at porn before their spouse comes home.”

3. You’re “divorced, dead, fired or arrested”

If you continue your sexual activities even under threat of being “divorced, dead, fired or arrested,” you’re an addict, Parker says.

“They ignore the consequences,” Weiss adds. “They say, ‘I could really screw up myself here, but I’m going to continue to do it.’ “

4. You have an intense interest in pornography

“The pornography piece of this cannot be overstated,” Parker says. “Show me a guy who’s having sex with three women in one week, and I promise you he has a relationship with pornography.”

5. You want to stop and you can’t

Sexual addiction is defined by a loss of control, Weiss says.

“I was totally out of control. I tried to stop and I couldn’t,” Rogers says.

I understand that Tiger Woods is a public figure, so it’s in his best interest for his image to speak publicly to his fans and his haters about the “transgressions”.

But, I could really care less if he apologizes “to me” or not, because he didn’t do this to me, he did this to his family.

Sure we make fun of the situation on the air and sadly enough it’s more because we all somewhere in our souls enjoy seeing successful people admit their faults. But whether or not I accept Tiger’s apology does not in anyway shape or form change what happens in his future.

Cheating or not, that doesn’t change how good he is at golf and how good he’ll probably continue to be at that sport. He’ll go on to make his millions and he’ll just become another powerful man who cheated on his wife and continued with his successful career.
