At first I thought it was a passport bro on vacation, but it turns out it was a love affair (cheating).
Everything about this is disgusting and whoever pushes this shit as some kind of romance needs a kick in the butt.

I don't know where you got this idea from, but it can't be from listening to this short story.

Maybe he is miss-understanding the word 'affair'.
Today a lot of people use 'affair' as meaning cheating.
But it used to just mean any activity, and a 'love affair' is just an event, or two people in love, with no cheating implied. Just the act of loving.
Now I wonder if 'affair' started getting used in reference to cheating because of loveless marriages, so any 'love' affair must imply cheating?

The word "affair" does not appear in the transcript of the episode; my only guess is that the commenter googled the name of the story looking for a summary and saw "love affair" in some of the results.
