Seth had his only authentic moment when he said during his talking head that Meredith has high expectations and he can’t ever meet them.  She gave it away when she said it didn’t add up. Seth looks half drunk or high all the time, so I don’t think it’s cheating. I think he just wants to use or drink without being nagged about it and he can when on the road for work. 

I see a red flag. Seth is either drunk or cheating on Meredith. His voice sounds slurred and he looks out of it. He is away on “business” a lot which is the kiss of death for a lot of couples on these shows. Isn’t that why they “grew apart” the first time, because he was frequently absent?

Lisa had larger implants.

I also noticed her boobs looked much bigger!

I kind of like Brownwyn. She does seem scared of Todd though. 

I don’t like how Justin is being criticized for how he talked to “a woman.” These women can’t have it both ways. They want to be treated equally  to men. Well then don’t ask for special treatment. Lisa shouldn’t have gotten in Justin’s face shouting. She was obnoxious, drunk and aggressive. I don’t blame Justin for how he acted.

This 100%!  Justin did absolutely nothing wrong. Lisa was the aggressive one.

Well he DID wear that matching shirt/short set with his hairy chest out. 😁

Oh my god, do you mean the blue one with white on it? Because I actually liked the look. Damn you, you made me say it out loud!

Seth's college degree is in Sociology, not in Business, so he doesn’t have the basic knowledge. I guess he eventually learned on the job (?). 

He mentioned on the show he was working in Ohio and Mississippi. He is working in Ohio again. 

My brother didn’t get a college degree but he worked his way up the ladder to become a regional manager at Lowe’s.

Seth is 52, so he graduated college in the 90s when it was still possible to get a job in the business world without necessarily having a business degree. I graduated in 2000 and knew someone who was a Government and Physics double major (weird combo, I know!) who got a job as a financial analyst at JP Morgan. I also knew someone who graduated with a degree in civil engineering but got a job as a management consultant at Accenture (back when it was still called Anderson Consulting).

Of course. Like my father used to say, college degrees are fine, but you really learn when you start working.
