Woman Divorces Husband After Catching Him Cheating in 'Second Life'

Taylor and her husband, David Pollard, are divorcing after three years of geekily wedded bliss after Pollard, described as a "jobless 40-year-old," was caught doing the online nasty with other Second Life women. The couple originally met in a chat room and moved in together after exchanging photos, emails, and calls. The 28-year-old Taylor actually caught Pollard having virtual sex only a few months after they started dating but they reconciled and got married, both in reality and in Second Life.
The couple spent hours together in the virtual world as "Laura Skye" and "Dave Barmy," but Taylor still suspected her husband was up to no good online so she hired a Second Life private detective to find out what was up. Eventually, Pollard admitted to chatting up an American woman for a few weeks and said the relationship was over. Taylor filed for divorce the next day, and found her case was the second Second Life-related split that week.
The divorce will be finalized next week and the former couple have already moved on to other people -- Pollard is engaged to the American woman, who he's never met in person, and Taylor is dating a man she met playing 'World Of Warcraft.' No joke. [Source: Sky News and The Telegraph]

That Jessica Simpson link is on almost every forum I've seen no matter what the topic. It infects your computer if you click on it. Surely there must be some way to block it!

There's a price to pay for being a child of a gay couple.. I am one and I am ashamed of my parents.I will never let them know how I feel as it would hurt them so much..sometime I wish they would separate.and go back to normal,but that will never happen... but they fight a lot. just like my normal friends parents do..I love them but feel like something is missing...

Hope he wore a virtual condom and signed an electronic pre-nup. Dickhead. These people need to get a second-life . Dickhead.

How stupid can people be? Are we talking about adults here or junior high school kids? This is one of the craziest things I've ever heard of. Anyone who gets involved in this thing has a screw loose and needs to grow up, big time.

People have way to much time on their hands. I'm soo confused. Never heard of this 2nd life stuff and have a very hard time following this story, but think that people need to grow up and learn what the true meaning of friendship, relationships, and marriage is all about. Maybe people would stay together longer instead of getting a divorce, because their expectations aren't met.
