S03.E07: Guys' Guide to Courting


Recommended Posts

Sounds riveting.

Can't wait to hear what Michelle adds, except appearance for fees. How creepy is it, that your mother is going along with you and 2 chaperones. She has met the parents, she can meet the rest of the family at the wedding. It's clearly to keep the parents significant, and yet, they become less and less each time they appear inappropriately.

I cannot believe they are showing these freaking courtships again. Didn't all the leghumpers complain last season when a few of the episodes were basically repeat episodes of the whole season???

Maybe they figure everyone is now sleeping straight through the show and won't notice.

So still no engagement and none of the guys are in successful relationships to give advice in the first place...

Didn't stop the girl "authors." .....And these are guys, so I'm sure they know more, just by nature. Right? ... Right?

Thank goodness hey are finally going to tell me how to have a great relationship!! My husband and I have just been winging it for 27 years.... 

I know! So insulting to actual long-married couples. And does anyone else remember how the Dullards were described to donors as going to CA to "help" them with marriage, because apparently those in CA are no good at it?

Prediction: the advice will be something along the lines of "Spew a constant stream of Jesus blather to obscure the sad reality that you've stuck yourself with a stranger who gets on your nerves."

Bin already told us:

If you find that you made a mistake as a horny teen, just remember suffering for Jesus is good. It doesn't matter if you are no longer attracted to the shrew, what matters is bearing the cross that your parents Jesus forced gave you. Physical attraction or any other compatibility aren't necessary, you still don't have to evil-masturbate, like single guys.

Joseph said, “when I am a father, any guy wanting to court my daughters will have to prove that he is there for the right reason, and not just to get the prize and leave.”  I wonder if he is referring to her virginity or being part of the Duggar kingdom and all that entails.

I don’t know why they insist on revisiting those awkward, “asking to court scenes”.  I cringe every time they show Ben asking to court Jessa.  Jill’s “awesome and totally” response to Derick made her sound like an unintelligent airhead. 

Funny how they never do a query on Jana's potential love life.

Ummmmm Josiah said, "I don't know anything about courtships?" Whaaaaaat????!!!!! How in the world do they expect ANYBODY to buy that?

You know what WOULD be interesting? An honest reflection from Josiah on why his courtship didn't work, even with his biased spin on it. It would be interesting to hear how a courtship that fails protects you from marrying the wrong person. But nooooooo...raw honesty has never been the Duggars' strength...

I was thinking "are we not going to mention Marjorie?".

I'm waiting for the West Coast feed to come on, but if they don't ask Jana about dating, I think that's a good thing. All the badgering last season came across as really mean spirited. Jana knows she has no love life. The camera crew knows she has no love life. Hell, the entire country knows she has no love life and zero prospects on the horizon. At this point, it would be like kicking a blind, mangy dog when he's down. Cruel and unnecessary.

I too was hoping they would talk about Josiah's failed courtship.  What are they hiding?  I did think he showed a slight insight in saying he realized how young he is and needs to mature a lot before a(another) relationship.  They could have even given Marjorie a TH on her college campus. There is life after courtship.  

I guess proposal is next week, I hope.  No more rehashing.

Aren't these people filming ALL THE TIME?? Why is there so much rehashing of old crap? How many times to I need to see Bin in the broom closet asking to court Jessa??

And maybe it's the NY'r in me but why do all of them talk so damn slowly? What's with all of the pausing? Spit it out! I hate slow talkers.

All of these people are dumb as rocks.  Imagine their thought process as a car in first gear, and you're looking at Duggar mentality.  Dumb with no education.  I'm truly surprised that they can speak in full sentences.

Thank you, Annb67 and jcbrown!!!  I really had the most stressful of days only to come home to watch this bullshit and your posts just made it all worth it!   I will not admit how many times I re-wound portions of the show as I was certain I had to have missed something.  It was just that bad.  And wine did not even take the edge off....

But they know such big words:

Jinger - "logistics"

Joe - "prioritized"

Josiah - "Woo the girl"

Joy - "realm"

Really? I'm already half a bottle down hoping for relief when this shitshow airs here in a few. :(

I feel like Prince William is to Jedediah (the one on the left tonight) as Prince Harry is to Jer (on the right :)

My cat did NOT react to Josiah's bird call. Like, not at all. Weird.

Josiah's graduation cake looked so so sad. 

It hasn't been healthy for you, Jeremy. Not one bit.

I will admit to having this on in the background. It sounded like an endless supply of recaps, backtracks, flashbacks, recaps of flashbacks, previews, previews of flashbacks, and recaps of recaps. Did they really ask the Wild and Crazy Jboys about hair color and height of their future wives? Sounded like it was right off Josh's Ashley Madison sign-up questionnaire.

These Jkids know nothing about each other. Nothing. Just like Mullet. I could tell you more about the people I work with.

What happened to that dog? Hope it escaped. It would be a first....an actual freed Duggar. Wish it could write a memoir.

Jinge is nuts. Babe should be embarrassed to be "courting" the likes of her, but I think he's equally as crazy. Wonder if any of his old Orangeman teammates are watching this and howling with laughter.

Jer and Jed remind me of a nice, handsome gay couple who spends their weekends antiquing and rescuing stray cats. It's kind of cute how they're sort of welded together when they sit on the couch.
