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? On 11/7/2024 at 3:36 PM, ZettaK said: 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. Edited November 15 by Sweet-tea 8 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8507850

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. 3 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8509087
Palimelon November 16 Share November 16 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). 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8509325

Of course. Like my father used to say, college degrees are fine, but you really learn when you start working. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8509538
ladle1 November 25 Share November 25 I’m sorry, but Todd saying he doesn’t want there to be any drama on the trip (and, unlike everyone else on RHW, seemingly…meaning it??) is like me going on a work trip with my husband and then telling the attendees they’re not allowed to practice law. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8517055

Doesn’t she spend every weekend with him since he lives with her and has no job? Maybe she was scared of leaving him alone in her house. Or maybe Mary just wasn’t in the mood. I want to give Mary a pass on this (if on nothing else) because she may be terrified that if she leaves him alone for any extended period of time, he’ll OD. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8517080

Mary needs Alanon, she probably would do herself a favor if she doesn't look in the trash can for evidence, it will be there. She needs to take care of herself and detach with love, tell that kid he can't stay there if he is using, it is the toughest thing to do but that kid needs consequences, his life is great, she gives him money, he has a nice place to hang out, does whatever he wants nothing is expected of him...I could go on but she should grow a pair, get tough and go to Alanon, nothing will change until she does. Those tuxedoed people at Mary's event made me laugh, my guess is that they were church members she wrangled into service, they were sent to the tux rental place and set loose in her house to look like footman and butlers. I thought Bronwyn looked a lot like Audrey Hepburn from the movie Funny Face. 4 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8517124

I’m sure she has some great qualities. She seems to be a caring mom, for instance! She just happens to be a specific personality type that just grates on me. I’m also admittedly biased against new HWs who engage in drama straight out of the gate. That said, I think she’s a solid RHW and a great addition to this cast. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8517168

Oh, I’m sure you’re right that this would be the “right” thing to do in Mary’s case. I just can’t imagine what I’d do in her position— worried that if I did set some consequences with my kid he’d leave and die on the streets. I just can’t bring myself to critique her for how she’s dealing with this. Especially when there’s so much else to critique! Like…everything else about Mary. And Bronwyn’s Poo House. And Whitney’s hilling. And Lisa’s love of canned food. And Britani. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8518053

A friend of mine had an overdose. She was older than Mary's son, and everyone still wonders if she would have been okay if she lived with her parents. Parents can't control what adult children do, but they are at least going to be more protective and quickly dial 911 if necessary. My heart really goes out to Mary. I wouldn't wish the fears she must have on my worst enemy. 4 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150457-s5e8-the-desert-and-the-deserted/page/2/#findComment-8518797

She already sees that she hasn’t been accepted by the hags and it is causing friction with Todd. Depends on how much she thinks the show is worth the apparent aggravation.
