Based on my observation of the people referenced elsewhere and the Afterbuzz link. What we see in the show is manipulated, I like getting more info from other sources to get a more complete picture, then form an opinion. I think it's unkind to insist that someone "stole" their husband from someone else without knowing for sure. I'll leave that crap to Leanne. Not to mention that it is impossible to steal an independent person. He's an individual able to make his own decisions regarding his personal life. Mark isn't property.

Well, all the Cary hate encourage me to shed my lurker status and post. Love her. She is direct. Brandi gives mixed signals...civil to Leanne even when she runs to others to trash talk her five minutes later. I'd take direct any day of the week. I love people who take no crap. Stephanie is definitely my favorite cast member. I adore her sense of humor, her positive demeanor and her authentic friendship with Brandi. I guess I see sexuality as fluid (on a scale) and really only the business of consenting adults. Let's say Mark is bi, or a cross-dresser, or fill-in-the-blank. He is a devoted husband, he treats her kindly and seems to be a great Dad. His relationship with Cary feels very real to me, perhaps because I don't think any relationship fits into a perfect box. I have also been involved with men who like to dress up their women. It isn't unusual. I don't get the ugly insinuations regarding the possibility he might not be 100% heterosexual. With recent events, have we learned nothing? You do you, Mark, I think you're great *exactly* as you are. I see no problem with Cary going out of her way to not raise an entitled child. Gift limits? Great idea. Leanne. Wow, I hope her therapy includes investigating if she suffers from Borderline Personality disorder. That disorder is no joke. I wouldn't walk away, I would run far away of any contact with her, if that is the case. Unfortunately I have a couple of people close to me with that disorder so I tend to suspect it when I see it. As someone who also has a short temper, I can say that enabling that behavior will not help. If Marie (former psychiatric nurse) suspects the same, it makes perfect sense why she would not engage/enrage Leanna further even though Leanna deserved to have a chat with the cops. BPD would also explain (to me) why Rich won't marry her but also won't break-up with her. Hell hath no fury.... Tiffany is the devil. She goes out of her way to start drama where there is none. So far there are 2? 3? circumstances where she told Leanna it was time to confront someone. She needs Leanne, her connections ect. Being the best friend to the person who gets the most TV time is wicked smart if you want to ride the Reality TV gravy train. Causing drama that hurts a possibly mentally ill "friend" is cruel beyond words. Tiffany had a motive to share the crap-pants-basket story, Marie didn't. Tiffany is ugly on the inside, IMO. I wish Stephanie lived nearby. She is hilarious. I love the relationship she has with her husband. He seems to love her very much. Relationships can be transactional at their core. My man works, I get to stay home. He can give me lists for days, for all I care. I am grateful. A lot of women with they could stay home but need that additional income. I am blessed beyond measure. Brandi is a bit of an attention whore and therefore a perfect fit for the show. I think Brian didn't want her to do the show and hence did not appreciate the tears and drama Brandi created for air-time. I think Brandi should have kept his personal hygiene habits to herself. Pretty sure we all do things we don't want advertised on national TV. Would love a second season, IF poop is not another housewive/storyline like it was this season. Pretty sure it was used as a theme that supplemented the Poopy Pants Leanna storyline. Enough. So gross. This reunion should be a blast.
