Just stop it!

A FURIOUS husband has taken public revenge on his wife's admirer in an unlikely place -- his rival's garage door.
A Reddit user with the screen name igotskraped posted a photo of a garage attached to a house in Illinois, tagged with a very clear message in red spray paint: "Don't e-mail my wife!!!!"
The scorned spouse added on the smaller side entrance: "Stop now".
The images were shared a month ago. There has been no update on this very public love triangle

I would be more inclined to administering a sound ass kicking myself. THAT is a good attention getter.

It always amazes me when the person who has been cheated on directs their anger at the other man/woman instead of at his/her spouse, which is where the blame belongs. The other person does not owe you loyalty or anything else, and who knows what they may or may not have been told about your relationship.
Antics such as the above accomplish nothing, unless the other person is also married to someone else, in which case all you have done is to cause another innocent spouse to suffer as much as you.
Hope it feels worth it.

The thing that struck me about this particular form of "message sending" is that to the average person driving by, it doesn't look like a message to the guy who owns the house...
It looks like a message being sent by
the owner of the house to
the entire community regarding emails being sent to
his wife....
Like he's got a problem with
so many guys sending emails to
his wife, that he felt the need to turn the front of his house into a billboard to try and put a stop to it....

Uhh what evidence is there that the wife reciprocated? This just as easily could be a case of a stalker as a "love triangle"

The idiot that did this needs to be charged for vandalism and required to repair the damage, plus should be fined 10x the repair cost.

He should be forced to walk around wearing a sandwich board that says, "I'm not man enough to satisfy my wife" in front of his own place of employment.

Who gave him her email address in the first place?
If his emails are that persistent and unwelcome, why hasn't he long since been blocked?
Why hasn't she launched a complaint with his ISP and/or email provider that he is using his account to engage in a pattern of harassment against her?
Her husband would not have needed to go to such extremes had she done one of a number of very simple things to stop receiving his emails. So they obviously weren't all that unwelcome to her, at any rate.

Never heard of work e-mails? Never occur to you that the wife may be afraid to act because it may cost her job?

So someone at work is sexually harassing her, and it's going to cost her job if she reports it through official channels? But it won't cost her job if her husband tries to publicly shame the guy by spray painting the entire side of his house? Oh yeah, that makes all kinds of sense.

Not enough *facts.* But close enough.

So you're assuming she has complete control over her husband ? If that was the case she should have made him satisfy her

Some women are NEVER satisfied.

I'm saying that you are grasping at some pretty thin straws to attempt to justify why someone who is receiving unwelcome emails would be so utterly powerless to stop it.

I live in a world where cheating and would-be cheating spouses are at least 1000 times more common than stalkers. I don't apologize for not grasping at the 1 in 1000 chance as being the most likely scenario in this case.
It's not as if it would have made the husband's behaviour in any way justifiable even if it were so.
