emailing erotic pictures to my wife.

[renemarge]

What is the name of your state? CA

I am currently married and I had a one month affair with an Austrian woman and thought and told her i would marry her.
unfortunately i found out life with her was impossible so i decide to quit her.
she is so pissed that she decided to do anything she could to hurt me. She had taken video without my knowledge of myself naked and may be of making love w/her. She has sent them to my wife, boss and coworkers causing the damage you can imagine. besides the shame, my wife is most likely to leave me.
1/ Can my boss fire me over this event ?
2/ Anything I can do to protect myself ?
3/ Is what she did really illegal, and since she is in a foreign country anything I can do to get back to her.

So shameful and desperate me.

thanks for your help

I believe CA is an at will state which means you can get fired over anything so yes unless you have a contract. And if you do have a contract do you have a morals clause? Because if you do have a contract and it has a morals clause then you have a major problem.
2/ Anything I can do to protect myself ?

Don't cheat on your wife. EVER! Oh wait, you already did that. Go get tested for STDs and make sure your wife gets tested. Wear a condom every time you have sex.
3/ Is what she did really illegal, and since she is in a foreign country anything I can do to get back to her.

That depends. Where were you when she taped you having sex with her. In a foreign country? Well then we can't answer. Did you know she was taping you? Then not a problem. She doesn't need your permission to send copies to your wife, boss or the news media if she wants. It is not nice but it is not necessarily illegal.

Yeah you are shameful. You are desperate> And this is what happens when you cheat. Your wife may probably divorce you and the only to blame is yourself.

Ashamed and desperate because you got caught, not because you cheated on your wife.

Until you know the difference, she should leave you.

I had file for divorce with my wife, but after this affair, we withdrew the filing, because we realized how much we still loved each other.

Seems like that was a waste of time then, huh?
A marriage with a cheating spouse is not a marriage. Cut your losses, get a divorce and stay single so you can have sex with whoever, whenever, wherever without having to be ashamed. Not to mention, give your wife the freedom to be happy with another man who doesn't cheat, she deserves that, doesn't she?

CAN he? Sure. Will he be able to or choose to do so? That depends on the nature of your employment, your employer, and the conditions in any contract you have in place.

2/ Anything I can do to protect myself ?

Wear a condom. And wear one when you have relations with your wife as well ... who knows what you contracted with your "friend".

3/ Is what she did really illegal, and since she is in a foreign country anything I can do to get back to her.

Yes, and no.

Unless she asked for something in exchange, it's not really blackmail. And whether it was legal to make the tapes will depend on the law in whatever country you two were screwing around in. But, realistically, you aren't going to be able to do anything to her.

Amazing how that karma comes back to you, ain't it?

Have these been posted on YouTube.com yet?

We'll be the judge if they're actually "erotic." LOL

Sorry...couldn't resist.

I was going to point out that Karma is a bitch that can bite you in the a$$, but in the present situation, it's a 180degree turn

True, but you've got to admit, it IS funny!

I think it is hilarious. He is mad because he cheated and got caught and now his a** is hanging in the wind -- literally -- for everyone to see. Repeat after me -- ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES.

I was already divorcing my wife and she knew about my GF.

Then what damage resulted from your gf emailing the videos to your wife?
