You were married too.

Stella had absolutely no idea that her one night stand was married with children and frankly, he didn’t tell her. Like she says, “that’s his business”. So why exactly is she on the receiving end of a lecture from her boss and other co-workers?

Apparently, she should be ashamed for having sex with another consenting adult who happened to be the dishonest one and decided to cheat on his wife whom she had no idea even existed. Stella came forward with the information willingly because she’s a good human being, yet gets judged for it. They even imply that she doesn’t care that her one-night stand was killed. She, of course, doesn’t even dignify that with a response. Why is she in trouble when she didn’t do anything wrong? I guess it’s on women to ask whether or not a dude is married before having sex. I mean, guys always ask the women that, right?

Luckily, Stella has some ammo to use and since we’ve all had enough of Jim’s bullshit at this point, it was quite brilliant to see Stella remind him that he slept with her when he was married. That’s pretty hypocritical, isn’t it? Sick burn, Stella.

Next: I despise him.
