    Did you hear about that fire?  The stove was faulty and was having issues.  Paige left a big pile of clean clothes she was "folding" on the stove and either went outside for a smoke or over to the neighbor's house. (Can't remember which).  I mean... who DOES that???   Like yeah... I used to set my babies on a faulty stove all of the time if I needed my hands free for a moment.....    (HUGE eye roll.)

    That same neighbor: “Yes, hello? I’d like to anonymously report insurance fraud?...” 😂

    I am NOT a Bethenny fan, but there is virtually no way she can respond to the Dennis situation - other than maybe leaving the show - in which she won’t get slammed by at least one subset of viewers. If she cries all season and wears a shroud she’s making the relationship more than it was. If she bounces back, she’s a cold bitch. 

    This. I don’t doubt that they discussed marriage. She may be bringing it up now to try to validate their relationship, since he had been married the time they were together. She strikes me as an insecure person who seeks approval from others and likely reacts to criticism by attempting to prove herself. By showing people that they were engaged, she feels that she legitimizes their relationship and therefore “deserves” to grieve.

    Just a theory. I’ve had patients that she reminds me of.

    They need to get divorced.

    I was confused.  Kate told Dr. Pepper that Luke initiated the sex, but didn't she tell Jasmine that she initiated it?  It sounded like she was telling Jasmine something different.  

    I don't know if Kate has a drinking problem, my senses tell me she does, which makes Luke even more horrible because Luke should have gone to the experts privately and told them so, then asked for a divorce.  Right now, he's using Kate's drinking against her which is wrong.  

    I like Keith because I feel that he's willing to change.  He knows he's been pampered by the women in his family and he does want to grow up and change.  I think Kristine may think she can do better, but when you think about it  she might not be able to do better.

    I read this book, and he does have a point.

    I mean, I don’t like to jump to conclusions, but I always get nervous when someone’s initial response to concerns about a drinking problem is “but you drink a lot too”.

  4. I’ve also questioned if Brandi and Bernie are closer than they’re leading on. We already know that he’s up to no good online with the sex talk. Could he have been chatting it up with Brandi and getting cozier than Paige is aware of? It would explain why she’s crying about leaving and seems so attached already. It would also explain why HE singled Brandi out to come visit.

    Yes I most certainly am aware of that, but I'm not a Rational so I don't need it to be considered "scientific" to find something valid about it (not that I would find anything valid about something like astrology, mind you).  When in the right hands Type can be used as a tool, and I find it pretty reliable in my own life.  🙂

    INFPs and INTPs can look alike because INFPs introvert their feelings.  The reason I'm leaning toward INFP with Will is his degree in education plus his desire to help and coach kids.  

    I really encourage you to research the limitations of MBTI and it’s alternatives, as there are better options to be used as “tools” for that subject matter. MBTI is not a whole lot more reliable than a horoscope, and disregards some very important factors in human behavior. I would strongly question using MBTI as a factor in any decision-making process regarding relationships (i.e. assuming two people won’t work together due to their “types”). Personality should be viewed as a spectrum, not a binary system.

    If I could vote for 2, Tracie would have gotten my vote, but Lizzie was definitely worse. Tracie at least had the “excuse” of being on drugs when she stole the car, and she does seem to genuinely love Clint—or at least being his goddess. Lizzie leached Scott of every penny he owns and left when he had nothing left to give and obviously never loved him. (This is the same reason for why I voted Scott as the worst because he’s the most stupid. If you have to ask whether you’re a trick 3 times an episode, you’re just a trick! Clint was also stupid, but I think he has some mental disability and enabling parents; Scott seems like a functioning man who just fell for the biggest love scam.)  But I can see why others voted for Michael because he was a cheater; I mean, personally, I think it’s pretty apparent he didn’t marry Sarah out of some great love and devotion but because he thought he had to for his parole, so he would fall lower on my list.

    I have a feeling that if Clint went broke and lost everything, Tracie would be gone in a heartbeat too. I think the only reason she came back to him was because she realized she couldn’t get by without him paying her way.

    OK, I'm pretty convinced now that Will is either a Myers Briggs INFP or INFJ.  I'm leaning toward INFP because type descriptions describe them as "keeping their warm side inside".  Will has great depth of feeling, he just doesn't show it on the surface.  I'm an INFJ and have known many INFPs.  Education is full of "NF" Idealists as they are drawn to it more than other types.  Will, like me, ended up in the corporate world but at heart wants to contribute something good for humanity.  I started out working in higher education, got a Masters in Counseling in Education, and then ended up in the corporate world.  

    For those that don't know Type, INFP stands for Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Perceptive.  I used to belong to an INFJ group online that discussed male INFPs in depth.  I knew one well, and now that I think about it, he acted very much like Will.  They can be very hard to figure out, even for themselves.

    In terms of Keirsey Temperament, Will would be an Idealist, which corresponds to all Myers Briggs types with "NF" (intuitive feeling) in them.

    Jasmine strikes me as either an ISFJ or ISTJ.  She is not very warm, which makes me think she's a thinking type, and seems very based in tradition, like all of Keirsey's "SJ" Guardian types.  As far as a romantic match goes, I can't think of a worse one than INFP with ISTJ.  They are polar opposites in just about every way except Introversion.  You'd think the so-called "experts" on this show would think about things like that, but they don't!  What happened to the "instruments" they used to claim they used to match people?  I could have given them the MBTI and known that was probably a match made in hell right off the bat.

    I’m an INTP and Will reminds me a lot of myself. However, I’m sure you’re aware the MBTI is not considered particularly reliable nor scientific these days.

  8. I have to say, if Will is truly anything like the way he comes off on TV, then I am Will and Will is me. Incredibly introverted. Instant need for nap around groups of people. The need for intellectual stimulation before physical affection. I once read the definition of the term “demisexual” and it fit me perfectly. I wonder if this is a good definition of Will as well. For someone like Jasmine who is driven by physicality, this will make no sense. And because Jasmine is basic, she is not seeing that this is an actual difference in sexuality. Someone needs to tell her that not every person functions the same in the arousal department.

  9. I hope this isn’t a publicity stunt by Luke. If he does “come out” later, it will remind me of the woman who faked a storyline to get on MTV only to reveal that she was a lesbian. She said she needed to come out in a way that was “memorable”. You just never know, I guess. People can be really bizarre and creepy.

  10. I had a feeling from the beginning that Megan knew about Sarah. Working in mental health, I’ve learned that people reveal a lot more than they’d like to through language. As soon as she had said “I don’t see her as a threat”, I knew she saw it as exactly that: a contest. It also explains the smug looks and the acceptance that Michael hasn’t been calling her daily.

    Agreed, while I get they have some familiarity with her going up and seeing him in prison - acting like you're about to get your sexy on, while on camera does seem like a far stretch. 

    I wonder if it was much like a sex scene for a tv show or movie - where the actors say it's super awkward and the camera people are giving them directions and it's take after take lol

    Those poor camera people 😂

    They have met in person.  The show has shown a photo of them while Michael was in prison. I'm willing to bet she's made that trip to see him many times. 

    I realize they’ve seen each other within prison walls but that’s not intimacy. I just can’t see someone who has supposedly waited and saved themselves being willing to give it up to someone who they’re only now just seeing for the first time in a normal setting. Even if she’s been sexually active in other ways, the act itself is very personal and she doesn’t appear to give a second thought to the idea that this is all on camera and with someone she is not physically familiar with. I equate this to 90 day fiancé - it doesn’t matter how many times you’ve talked about it, it’s still going to be awkward as hell on the first day lol.

  13. I look at Megan and judge that situation based on odds. Is it more likely that she’s an incredibly rare virgin who breaks all social norms and customs and has waited almost 30 years only to give it up to someone she has never met in person before? Not to mention that she’s willing to give it up to someone who has been distant with her for weeks now by not calling and he’s been hanging with his ex. Are the odds better that she’s a virgin who displays the opposite of normal human behavior or that she’s a liar who thinks this will help get her famous? Occam’s razor.

  14. Hooooly s*** she does look exactly like that cabbage patch doll.

     

    Megan is full of crap. She reminds me of insecure women who lose their virginity at a young age and then dangle that fantasy to attract men due to the association with desirability and positive self-worth.

  15. Megan, nobody is buying your virgin BS. What she doesn’t realize is that she will lose her appeal now that it’s supposedly gone. And Michael is showing his predictable true colors, only concerned about collecting a V card. We know why Megan is his “queen” now - because he thinks he’s getting something that men all over the world have begged and paid for throughout history. He lights up talking about what having sex with a virgin will be like, and says he will make her “explode”. We see you, boo. Congrats on getting that possibly infected prison D, Megan.

    OMGosh. I feel so bad for them all.  And right at the beginning, the little boy is hitting himself on the head, like Asuelu did. 

    If you experts that work with kids with autism say Asuelu Isn't autistic, what do you think would make a grown man hit himself (and bark) like that then?

    I found it here if anyone else wants to watch it.

    Personally, I wouldn’t rule it out for Asuelo or anyone else (people can be on the spectrum and disguise their symptoms or show them in various ways) but I don’t assume that anyone has autism simply because they engage in a behavior I consider to be strange. It could simply be a maladaptive coping strategy or an unusual way of exhibiting frustration. I once worked with a patient with severe tinnitus who would hit his head when noises were bothering him. He simply said it made him feel better. He also struggled with intermittent explosive disorder, which may have been a factor.

    No, it isn’t. Trust me, I’ve been there.

    Her wounds look self-inflicted, to me. The cut on her cheek... how does one get a cut like that from a fist-fight? Her eyes would be red from crying, etc... I’m not buying all of that. Colt’s mouth, on the other hand, does look like he was hit.

    They need to get away from each other. Now.

    If so, that would be some scary Cluster B stuff that Coltee should be very concerned about.
