As I said I don’t like her, but that doesn’t mean I’ll get joy in someone publicly humiliating her. Jesse is being cruel and getting happiness out of it...that’s indefensible to me. So I’ll agree to disagree. Darcy being a poor excuse of a mother doesn’t minimize Jesse being a poor excuse for a man.

Bwahaha!!! Easily one of the funniest moments from this franchise. Michael’s life flashed before his eyes...he looked concerned that all his work was no reason. It cannot be said enough, but Jesse is an asshole. He hoped to humiliate Darcy with a public dumping. He flew out knowing she’d think he was coming for a good reason...what a shithead. I don’t even like Darcy, but I am tired of Jesse’s gaslighting. He knew if he did it in person, she would flip out and he’d look calm and rational. His “friend” was right to say there are cheaper and easier ways to breakup with someone who lives thousands of miles away. Hard to extend any sympathy to Rachel. Life isn’t fair? It certainly isn’t. There are mothers, fathers, and children trying to flee war-torn zones to come to the US. Life certainly hasn’t been fair to them. I hardly call the US not wanting a violent felon in “not fair”. Tired of her “woe is me, more tears please!” ass. And I think it was really weird she’d go dress shopping and not even let the consultant in to see how the dresses fit. She just wanted to whine and waste everyone’s time. TLC tweeted that her friend was also confused about Rachel’s behavior during the try-ons.

I don’t know if he would have hit her back, but I definitely think he would have made sure she knew her behavior wasn’t tolerated at any fronts by restraining her. Even with that initial slap after the “fat” comment, I think Michael was ready to push her hand out of his face. I don’t know what it is about this show and the assault of men by women. From Anfisa to Nicole to Angela, keeping your hands to yourself seems to be a lesson of a time log ago.

I meant that she likely doesn’t have very strong memories of it just being her and her parents. That’s all.

Blayke is interesting to me. She didn’t get that much alone time with her parents before her siblings were born. Kind of reminds me of the oldest sister of the McCaughey (sp?) septuplets. I wonder how she feels about the situation.

It is so telling that every one of Jon’s family members and friends has basically warned her that perhaps this isn’t the best idea. They know Jon best and if they are apprehensive, it’s likely for good reason. Not only do they seem worried for Rachel, they seemed worried for Lucy.

In the pictures TLC showed of her that she sent to Jon before meeting, she definitely made herself look more made up with makeup and cleavage out. In fact, in one of the intro pictures that TLC showed when she first appeared, she was wearing a super cute red top that I would actually buy. Ultimately, she can wear what she wants, but she did appear to try a bit before they met. She honestly seems very depressed to me so maybe she just doesn’t care in general. Exactly. Angela is hardly an innocent woman swindled and scammed by Michael. She definitely got something out of the relationship.

Throw Darcy in and we have a show!

Not only did she not seem to care about her clothing, not even for the nights out, but she has had a perma-frown this whole season. She just seems depressed to me.

I think Michael is lying about the circumstances. He was intimate with another woman and framed his story to look like he is victim because he doesn’t want to get yelled at by Angela. Nevermind that they weren’t even in a relationship so I have no idea why he fessed up in the first place.

Lol. I guess I should speak for myself then. I hate cigarette smoke, but I also like to encourage those around me to not smoke because of the health complications that come with it. I’ve seen what it looks like to die from smoking complications and it ain’t pretty.

I have to agree. And for the most part, he’s certainly acted like a nice boyfriend. He’s used affectionate words, is physically affectionate, introduced her to his loved ones, and seems to have tried to help her fit in. He even wants her to quit smoking which tells me he cares somewhat about her. But all she can do is yell, bully, and slap...just a mean woman. Even if he is using her to get into the US, she’s using him for regular sex or an ego boost...sounds like both are getting something out of this.

Paul did imply that it wasn’t just the brother who came over. I assume his or Karine’s friends came as well and participated in the feast.

I come from a Caribbean culture where you absolutely offer your guests food and drinks when they visit your home (you even offer to cook for them and are expected to do so if the offer is accepted), but I am still on Paul’s side. He was wrong to call her family thieves, but he was understandably upset about the loss of a week’s worth of food. He’s the only one who has money in the relationship and since it seems he not only paid for the apartment, the wedding, the reception, and all of Karine’s unicorn onesie needs, money is likely right. In my culture, I would never go into someone’s home and eat all they had...that is just rude. He also wasn’t wearing a bullet proof vest - he was wearing a cooling vest. He wouldn’t shut up about it last season so I am surprised people missed that. Karine is very irritating and I find myself not feeling bad for her or Paul. They had no business getting married. Angela honestly expected a 30 year old man in another country to not get a little frisky with another woman in his town? “I did the BJ”...oh, Michael. I am going to have that printed on a shirt. Angela is abusive with anger issues. I half expected her to call Michael the n-word when they were arguing.

This! It aired constantly when I was watching 90 Day Fiancé and it got old fast, as did the older son repeatedly declaring he won’t change diapers. Due to their infatuation with little people and multiples, I am waiting for the day where TLC premieres a show about a little married couple with sextuplets. Improbable, sure, but if they ever exist, TLC will find them.

I wondered this as well. Something tells me Angela wouldn’t think twice about eating the mystery meat sold at major fast food places though.

I assume he just didn’t have anything else to wear. No reason to shell out for a suit he might wear once or twice if he has more pressing financial matters like Karine’s mom and siblings. I also got the impression from everyone else’s attire that they did not expect a formal wedding anyway.

Ego or not, Sam was smart not to return. She really didn’t have anything to gain. Ron has anger issues and just seems generally unpleasant to be around.

I agree. TLC even tweeted a week or so ago that Michael tried to get Angela to wear Nigerian clothing because it tends to be made of a cooler, more comfortable cotton, but she refused. So her suffering was really her fault. If other women can walk around just fine in modest attire, Angela can as well.

She definitely stepped on his shoes to piss him off. He strikes me as the type who keeps his white shoes bright white and gets furious about scuffs. I don’t even know the man and I sense that. I find it hard to believe that Darcy wasn’t trying to push his buttons. And I feel quite confident that she threw a shoe at him with the intent to hurt him. Jesse is an asshole, but she’s very immature.

I agree. It’s actually quite sad. He tries to keep the peace with her, but she is always finding something wrong with his actions. I still think Angela was dead wrong for slapping him in the market.

I find it hard to believe they even have a decent sex life. They can’t agree on anything! I feel like 90% of their sex life involves bickering and the other 10% actual sex.

I laughed so hard! Never thought I would see a Buggin Out gif in this site.

Every few seconds, it seems Michael is thinking, “Is going through this to meet Trump really worth it?”. He’ll have to obey everything Angela says with a “yes,ma’am”, meet her every sex need, abandon his hope of being a dad, and basically abandon social media to keep her happy. Angela wants a man she can drag around on a leash. It bothers me that Angela didn’t seem to understand that a 30 year old man might want children in his lifetime within his marriage. Did she not consider that was a possibility? She has little to no chance to having a biological child. I know we hear these stories of a 70 year old delivering twins, but that doesn’t come easily or without great financial sacrifice.

She saw that meal ticket withdrawing and went right in with the affection. I just remembered Angela’s question about wiping her butt. If you’ve ever worked for a nursing home, you’ve seen the countless parents and grandparents left languishing in beds with sores and other ailments with no relief. Angela is a CNA so I’m sure she’s seen spouses left by their partners in a home. I think she fears that happening to her.
