David Arquette Said He Slept With Bartender While Married to Courteney Cox

Published October 12, 2010 | FoxNews.com



In their joint statement on Monday, David Arquette and Courteney Cox claimed that things would remain amicable during their trial separation, but that hasn’t stopped Arquette from blabbing about what went wrong in his eleven year marriage to the “Cougar Town” star.

The actor called in to Howard Stern’s Sirius show on Tuesday and confronted some of the infidelity rumors and other "issues" head-on.

Regarding the 28-year-old bartender Jasmine Waltz he was linked to, the actor admits, “I did have sex with her one time, maybe twice… my sexual encounter made me feel pretty manly."

How does it make his estranged wife feel?

“Part of the terms of out separation was that I was allowed to see other people and so was she,” he explains.

Arquette said he doesn’t know whether there is any truth to the rumors of Cox and her “Cougar Town” co-star, Brian Van Holt getting frisky, but he did say there is some chemistry there and called it an “emotional affair.”

Although he's not sure whether that relationship is physical or not, he knows one thing for sure, he and his estranged wife hadn’t been intimate in quite some time.

"We're not having sex, and I completely understand," he told the Sirius host. "She's an emotional being… If it doesn't feel right, she doesn't feel like bonding in that way."

"She's the greatest woman I've ever met … Now, yes, she's got her issues,” he said. “She tries to take on everybody's problem. She tries to be the mother to everyone – that's why she doesn't want to be the mother to me anymore."

And he said he respects that.

"I appreciated that,” said the 39-year-old actor. “I've been going to therapy. I'm trying to grow up."

So is there any hope that they will reunite?

According to their statement, "The reason for this separation is to better understand ourselves and the qualities we need in a partner and for our marriage," they said.

The couple has a six-year-old daughter, Coco.
 
These threads are never closed until the boss says so, or they fade into the abyss. People may say their done but post again because these topics are forever, they will never die unless society changes and they phase out into the abyss like these threads do sometime.

What I have come to notice is that some people can discuss a topic and go back and forth with their view points not necessarily agreeing on anything or some things. Some people argue topics, they are "ride or die" with their view points, they make personal attacks to try and get their opinions/view/beliefs/values noticed, heard or accepted as facts. I believe I and people benefit from listening to all view points, considering them within the framework of my existing opinions/view/beliefs/values.

Derail over.

With that said, I also add that I personally wouldn't get involved with someone's wife I knew, even if it's just a friend of a friend, acquaintance, anything like that. It basically goes like this: if I'm at a bar I wouldn't approach a women that is visibly married, but if I approach & she decides to reciprocate my approach, I'm going in. If she tells me she married, but still wants to engage with me, that's not my problem. And if you think about it, your wife already let YOU down by even engaging with in the first place. I would divo any wife of mine for engaging with someone in a manner that I just explained. You can't say it's all flirting up until she "gets the business." What if her intentions where to "get the business" but she just couldn't close the deal with me because I don't sleep with married women, that will allow you to sleep at night, just cause she didn't have sex...?

exactly it is her decision. it is funny when people get caught up they want to blame everyone else and then get mad when people dont trust them. I would still be careful dealing with a married woman cause that can get you killed.

A friend of mine told me her dad got popped for messing with a married woman. he was like 33 at the time and has been carrying around a bag to piss in. he has to have his family to care for him. his wife left him after he got popped. I said in my mind I dont feel sorry for him because he knew she was married.

you reap what you sow.

I've been separated from my husband (living separately) for almost 3 years. I waited to get the divorce for awhile to check on his mental stability, but since then, I haven't been able to afford to get divorced.

I dated a guy for 7 months and he didn't care. I've been upfront about my situation with every guy that I have an interest in dating. None of them seems to care.

The divorce is coming, when I can scrape up the $550 it'll take to get one. ARGH!!


Bookie, I swear, if I had an extra $550 to give you to get your divorce, I would definately do it. No one should have to wait that long just because of money...I'm glad you are able to be upfront with the men you have dated and they have been ok with it. Says a lot about you and your choices...
 
Makes you think does morality exist anymore?
How can someone want to be part of messing up someones family. The shit ain't right.

the word your searching for is FOUL!!! amongst others. its just not even plausible under any circumstances. out of bounds for real!!!!:smt073

Thank you sweetie! :smt058

My financial situation is just utterly ridiculous right now. I switch from crying about it to laughing about it. What else can I do right now? Anyway, I appreciate the sentiment. Maybe my financial luck will change for the better soon.

When I can, I'll put whatever I can afford into a box and save it for a divorce.

there's always room for pole dancers

:smt033

or you can donate ovaries
 
I know Bookie, let's put on a pole dancing show to raise money for your divorce....there's enough ladies on here that would be willing to do it I'm sure...and I'm sure there are enough men who would pay to see it!!! :smt007

I thinks that's a great idea for a fund-raiser! It beats having a bake sale! I'm in if you're looking for volunteers! :smt006
 
I'm probably going to sweat some heat on this thread because I have several issues with the way this conversation (or limited lack thereof) has gone... While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I believe this thread should have been more appropriately titled "Sound Off On Cheaters", since the overwhelming tone has been negative toward "cheaters", and suppressive for/toward any who would dare to offer an opposing view...

So let's cut to the chase...

If we take the word "cheater" at face value, the word in itself implies a very negative image of someone engaged in dishonest acts for personal gain or as defined by the freeonline dictionary: "To deceive by trickery; swindle: cheated customers by overcharging them for purchases. 2. To deprive by trickery; defraud: cheated them of their land" or per dicitionary.com, "to deceive or practice deceit, especially for one's own gain; trick or swindle (someone)"... While the definitions are decidedly narrow for the purpose of this discussion, at the base of the definitions is the intent to deceive; deception.

In committed relationships, no matter how dry the ink is on a piece of paper, no matter how sincere the words of eternal love are spoken and conveyed, no matter what the expectations are of fidelity, monogamy, honesty, and whatever other values a couple expresses, expects, or places on said relationship, anything and everything is possible and subject to change based on the couple.

I'll be the first to admit the presence of "snakes in the grass", deceptive people with ulterior motives ( "people" because I don't believe the label is gender specific or that all of the culprits who merit the label are male), but I do believe that each situation is unique unto itself and the true story is often clouded somewhere between what the parties involved really say, said, really know, knew, and really meant...

It's really easy to condemn any cheating couple who does the deed when the facts are kept to the basic facts; One or both of them are in committed relationships to someone else and said couple bumps uglies and the world learns about it...but is anything in life that simple? How many bad relationships do you know of that ended with handshakes, smiles, and mutual understanding about what went wrong, what was wrong, and even more importantly, who was wrong and wronged? For that matter, how many "good" relationships ended without bitterness on one side or the other when infidelity was the central issue?

Whenever deception is an element in any human interaction, and that deception is discovered, the "prey", the victim feels justifiably angry, abused, and (personally) foolish for believing the deceiver... We all want to believe that we were taught better and that we knew better or should have known better.

When one is living inside a relationship where the other is dippin elsewhere, well meaning friends can give the victim the GPS coordinates, but the victim is usually in denial or acceptance or both... In my personal experiences, the victim doesn't want a best friend to pull the covers off the bed, even if the victim had a roadmap leading to the third party. In my experiences, the victim will attack the messenger and anyone outside the inner circle who would suggest infidelity of a partner, even if the victim already knew...

If we leave out the psychopaths, the demented, and the other warped sociopaths that prey on opportunity, weakness, and troubled relationships for their booty calls, that still leaves people in committed relationships, who for whatever reason, feel the need to creep... In our mind's eye, we may have been perfect... the perfect partner in the perfect relationship, and thought everything was "perfect"... But in the cases of the creep or cheat, the truth be told, even with all those GPS directions (cause those same friends try to leave hints at the first sign of trouble), some of us miss turns, stops, and detours that would have saved what we treasured most.

In the case of infidelity, it takes two, unless it was forced, and then it takes big people and counseling to get over ego and trauma... But if the partner was that precious, was all that... after a serious look in the mirror to "make sure our own hair was in place", isn't forgiveness in order?

My grandmother used to have a saying when she would punish us... "Fool me once, shame on me, but fool me twice..." and then the hammer would fall...

I'm not defending infidelity, and real parasites deserve to be exterminated in my book, but if the purpose of this thread was dialogue and or confession, the initial tone and ensuing general agreement (I'm not neglecting the voices who those weighed in in an effort to promote discussion) left no wiggle room for open conversation...
