I am certain Johnny Depp is having a midlife crisis.  I saw him on some tv show months ago--playing with a band [Black Keys] & he looked embarrassed being there.  I knew looking at him he was in mlc--altho his eyes were hidden!

I think so too. The 49-year-old actor cheated on his wife of 14 years with his 27-year-old private flight attendant:

  It's that "I'll show them" attitude that sinks their ship. :(
  Nothing is ever good enough. External things will be the answer... :o :o   Uh Oh  Maybe not.
  Those drugs like epoetin they use can cause tumors in cancer patients to grow bigger and more numerous. There's even a special consent form for the cancer pt.
   Too bad when you're famous the whole world watches as you "reap what you have sown"  :-[

Just saw this and it really brought tears to me this morning.  He screwed up royally bad and lost more than most of us will ever make, but is willing to do anything to get his ex-W and family back.  And the best part is she's considering and feels he is genuine.  Fairy tale in the making?

Now she is said to feel the new deal, worth more than half of Woods’ $600 million, would be enough to keep him from cheating again.
I dont think she understands MLC.
I think he is still in REPLAY, but what do I know.

I think this is something positive to see. He and Lance Armstrong seem to be coming to their senses, so perhaps our spouses will too! Thanks Thundaar for sharing this !

  I didn't read the article yet but did he "break his silence and speak to his W for the first time?"  ;)
  On Sundays when I watch some golf for the last few years he did look very very depressed. $600 million didn't help I guess. ::)

Athletes do play by different rules as their upbringings are usually quite different than the norm, but universal truths still apply to them as well.  He screwed up and apparently the guilt over it became too much and he decided to admit to what he had done.  All those years of hearing sportscasters say his success was because his heart was literally bigger than most people's is hilarious now.  He took the easy road and left his morals by the curb.  I do kind of wonder if he may have come clean just to get his name back in the headlines.  Celebs have been known to be addicted to fame, and the old saying about there being no such thing as bad publicity comes to mind.

That being said, will I no longer be able to use the term "Cycling like Lance Armstrong" to describe myself?  Perhaps I will need to change it to "Cycling like Lance Armstrong on drugs" to be more accurate.....

What makes you think that Tiger Woods had an MLC?

Could he not just be a serial cheater?

An MLC affair is about having an emotional bond with the OW. I don't think that this was the case with Tiger and his many, many women.

I also think he was sorry (not remorseful) the minute he got caught.

So is this encouraging?  It does show that he has been unable to stop wanting his wife back, but remember she was the one who walked away, with good reason.

The man has more money than he knows what to do with, so a promise of millions is not any guarantee that he won't do it again.

Is he still in Replay?  No. I don't think he's had an MLC. I just think he is a serial sex addict and cheater whose ego was so incredibly large that he thought he'd never get caught.

He and Arnold should do a book tour.

I dont know whether he is a serial cheater or not but if you have a wife like Elin Nordegren and cheat you are an IDIOT.

So does that make all serial cheaters idiots?
