I still would, G-d willing someday, like to marry Geraldo Rivera. I know that two of the Ten Commandments are "Thou shalt not commit adultery" and "Thou shalt not covet". I'm also a child of divorce. But (and this is a list of excuses, but), like I've blogged about beforehand, Erica is not good for Geraldo and Sol-- surely (as far as I know) not abusive (at least in one sense), but a total hypocrite and a bad influence on both (As I've blogged about before, for example, poor Sol is Un- and even Anti-Jewishly being made at the pending adulterous nuptials of Tiki and so-far-to-be Traci Lynn Johnson Barber; and all while Geraldo is forbidden from appearing on "Dancing With the Stars" for dread of his possibility of committing adultery.).
Why can't I get a break for once? Besides, I'd try to be a good influence on Geraldo-- and I wouldn't proselytize about my faith or politics, or even make or urge him to convert just to marry me. As I've said before; I don't and wouldn't encourage Geraldo to cheat, but why does Erica get all the undeserved luck with a man who she doesn't even really love?

I didn't mention coveting and adultery. :) I'm not concerned with that, at all.
I am saying that you should live in reality, not expect reality to conform to your imagination. In any area of our lives, that brings nothing but disappointment, and causes us to overlook opportunities that are available. This is what causes relationships to go bad, anyway; people don't accept each other for who they really are.
Geraldo isn't the guy you want him to be. He just isn't. He doesn't want to be. His wife says she loves him, and she would have more insight to that knowledge than you or I would, so I have to go with her on that.
Take this image you have of the "perfect guy", remove the Geraldo aspect, and look for someone who matches up with that person.
Let me ask you this: would a woman who loved her husband not let him convert to Mormonism if he wants to (Geraldo does and Erica won't let him, and he won't only because of her.)? Would a woman who loved her husband let him befriend two adulterers like Tiki Barber and Traci Lynn Johnson (Erica did; and since she leaves her photo section on Facebook open to the public, you can see that she is friends with the adulterous couple and will have Sol be the flower girl at their wedding, should the wedding even happen.)? Would a woman who loved her husband hang up on him for a season finale of "True Blood" (Erica once did, according to Geraldo.)? Want me to go on?
Geraldo is a grown man. He is the only one responsible for his choices. Erica did not make him do anything. Geraldo chose not to be a Mormon. He may have done it for her sake, but that simply makes him the kind of man who puts romance over faith. That is who he is.
Geraldo made the choice to be friends with Barber and Johnson, because he is the type of man who would be friends with Barber and Johnson. The question you should ask yourself is, why do you want a man whose personality traits allow him to become friends with these people? Is Geraldo really the man you think he is?
You can go on if you wish, but I will just keep redirecting you to the fact that Geraldo is a grown man who is responsible for his own choices.
None of this makes Geraldo a bad guy, but he's apparently bad for you. And again, it has nothing to do with adultery or calling you a hypocrite, because I don't think you are. I think you're just caught up in a fantasy that doesn't match up with the reality.
Well, I'm not going to lie about who I am. After all, "“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”" I'm coveting my neighbor's (even my enemy's) spouse. As far as Erica being an enemy, she's an enemy even of Geraldo. For "Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”" Bad influence affects good character, and Erica is to the Far Left (We're talking Far Left. Look at what you can see of her Facebook page some time.). Also, as I said before, what woman who loved her man wouldn't let him have freedom of religion and would have him associate with unrepentant adulterers?
