Husband's Social Media Seems To Serve One Purpose
Dear Abby | January 23rd, 2026 | Letter 1 of 3
DEAR ABBY: I saw my husband's Instagram account, and he's following only women who show their bodies provocatively. Is that emotional cheating, or is it just lust? Also, is that grounds for divorce? His looking at and lusting after women online hurts my feelings. -- IMAGE PROBLEM IN ALABAMA.
DEAR IMAGE PROBLEM: What you have described is lust. Emotional cheating involves starting a relationship with someone. While there are many grounds for divorce in the state of Alabama, looking with lust at scantily clad women on Instagram is not one of them. Many men do this, and it doesn't present a threat to their marriages. (Consider it an updated version of the old Playboy calendars you might have seen hanging in garages.) Come to think of it, there was once a Playgirl magazine containing centerfolds with photos of gorgeous, scantily clad men. (I'm sure a friend told me about them.)
