To me, what happened is also a short story arc. I can't see any relationship recovering from what just happened.

Relationships have recovered from more dire straits than these.
I'm not putting any money down, mind...

This week he jumps up and down on it.

:laugh:
Last week, Dale heard the "click" and belatedly realized he was in a minefield.
This week, he quickly looked up "How to defuse landmines" on Google and said to himself "This shouldn't be too hard..."
pwhodges:
Cheating leads to a breakdown of trust which is commonly irrecoverable; misunderstanding is comparatively easy to correct, though care may be required; suspicion, as in this case, falls in between.
Yes, this is recoverable; but yes, Dale needs to do some serious work to get there.

... I've BEEN in relationships that have easily survived much worse than that.
Idk. Yeah, he probably worded it badly, and she is being irrationally jealous, but to be honest, this doesn't seem like nearly as big of a deal as people seem to be making it out to be in the thread to me.
EDIT: Also, people need to get over the fact that more than likely, your SO doesn't think you are the most attractive person, the smartest person, the funniest person, the most whatever person on the planet. Maybe it comes from being poly myself, but it just seems like a really unhealthy thing to expect.

What does being poly have to do with it? Genuine question.
And sure, I know I'm not Lupita N'yongo or Manny Jacinto, but how does my SO telling me that lead to anything supportive or productive? Attractiveness is all subjective, anyways. If what my SO had to say about my looks was "Well, sure, she's prettier than you, but..." you can bet your butt I'd be out of there.
