Albert Einstein was a player/womanizer?
Well, this is no doubt of proof that intelligent and sexual morality are mutually exclusive. I may not be smart as Einstein but I have been faithful to my g/f. But some people say Einstein ultimate creativity and unorthodox thinking (breaking rules) lie not only within Physics but within his marriage as well. Who knows?
If there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs it would be Buddhism.” Albert Einstein
Einstein was indeed the most intelligent man with his contribution to the field of Physics - yet what about his moral ethics? Before his marriage ended, he had several affairs with women, he has kids whom he never knew or saw, etc.

I was expecting a more philosophical replies....
It is one of the real mysteries: moral behaviour does not guarantee genius nor does genius guarantee moral behaviour.
Although the story about the "woman taken in adultery" is in the Christian scriptures, it is a pretty good guide to how we are to behave towards each other. I am glad for you and your girlfriend, Identityless, that you have agreed an exclusive relationship and stuck to it. But, surely, the sensible person adds the word "yet" to any such remark: none can know what the future holds.
"Call no person happy until they're dead" applies.
There is a thread somewhere that speaks of two world leaders, one with an impeccable scholastic record, who stuck to his beliefs and was faithful thoughout his life to one partner, the other leader was a smoking, drinking reprobate with a doubtful educational record and a deserved reputation of disainful lechery.
The first was Hitler, the second Churchill.

When I was at Oxford, living in college, my 'scout' (college servant) was an elderly man who had been a 'scout's boy' at Christ Church when Einstein was temporarily there. He insisted that, on one occasion, he was standing outside Professor Einstein's door while the great man and a friend were playing music. Einstein kept stumbling over a particular passage and the friend, exasperated, finally snapped: "Oh, for God's sake, Albert, can't you count?"
