I'd be divorcing him on the basis that he considers his relationship with his AI bot to be just as serious as his relationship with his wife.

You know what, while I certainly don’t think it’s optimal… presuming that she knew he was poly and understood what that meant when they got together, and this fulfills other needs for him and helps him feel more fulfilled… it’s a long way down a sad road but if they want to keep doing it then it’s what works for them.

Normally relationships between Poly and mono people just don’t work out long term.

I’ve dated women who held … high opinions of their nightstand companion. If pressed, I’d probably take them more seriously than him, but there’s a logical part of me that feels they aren’t terribly different - anthropomorphized mechanical endorphin scratchers for particular receptors.
