Stupid men

[Meursault]

I cant understand how a 39 year old man gets involved texting a 13 year old girl. Perhaps he is not very bright. Apparently, recently married, with a young child, he will now spend the next 8 years in custody.

Whatever it was that he wanted, he could have had for 200 euro from an escort.

How can people mess up their lives so much.

There are stupid people and then there are pathological sociopaths/psychopaths. I would love to know does he feel remorse because that usually indicates whether someone is stupid or a psychopath.

Agree though. He has basically thrown away his life.

Warren Buffet once said it takes twenty years to build your reputation and five minutes to destroy it. When you think like that you do things differently.

Worth noting that you get charged with visiting escorts, the result would not be too far off what has happened this man. I am not saying they are equal, but you get a conviction for both. And could lose as much. You would more than likely lose your job if you were convicted for visiting escorts, not that i agree with it.
