He's still listed as a grad student at Indiana University Bloomington, so I'm guessing that he either didn't finish his PhD dissertation, or he didn't defend it successfully. If he was hired with the condition that he receive his doctorate by the end of that academic year, that would explain a decision to drop him.

In the link above where he's highlighted in Summer 2016 at the Hebrew Academy, it states that he began his doctorate in 2010 and "currently he has only his dissertation to complete and defend" [before he graduates]. Most institutions push you to finish a doctorate in 3-4 years, but he's in his 7th or 8th year? Depending on the institution, he can be considered a FT student in dissertation hours with only 3 credit hours, so his tuition probably isn't breaking the bank. However, I'm curious about his visa. If he's here on a student visa, they are typically 1 year for non-native English speakers to enroll in an English language program, and then 4 years for a credit-bearing degree program (one of the previous hats I wore at an old position was that of an enrollment specialist). These rules are pretty strict, and repeatedly getting a visa extension would be an issue unless he's already considered a resident OR is on a work visa where the Hebrew Academy sponsored him. But working for 8 years on your doctorate without having a FT research/teaching job is exorbitant - I don't think that teaching at a Hebrew Academy counts as a major detractor from his studies. It took me one semester to collect my data, run it through two separate quantitative data analysis software tools, AND defend my PhD, and I was done in 3.5 years with the entire doctorate (I could have finished in 3 years on the nose, but had health problems and then lost half of my house in a storm so I had to add on 2 extra semesters). He's obviously spending his dissertation research and writing time chubby chasing and swindling.

I would never kiss my father on the lips for any reason, and she does that every time.  Perhaps its a Southern thing.  

Nope, it's definitely not a Southern thing. Thank goodness. I don't know anyone that does that. If I knew her personally, I would want to avoid her. I wonder what her extended family or classmates really think of her.

I had a friend who was ABD for 10 years but that was definitely pushing it (and she ended up not finishing). At the end of every year, she was always stressed that she the school would kick her out of her program. When her advisor retired that was pretty much the end of the whole gig.

In her defense, it's hard to work full time and try to finish a dissertation, which is what my friend was trying to do. Her full time job was pretty demanding and then her dissertation was like another intense full time job on top of it.

For anyone interested, here's a link to the podcast where Maney, Roy and Lauren explain the end of their show's appearance on MBFFL. Spoiler (not really) one reason was that  the producers of MBFFL wanted this season to be the season of "Whitney and Roy," which Roy, for reasons that are pretty clear, declined to do.

 How freaking sad is it that she has to have her employers (TLC) act as pimps in order to get her a boyfriend  just for the sake of having something, anything interesting enough in her life that they can  film for the TV show. 

Without TLC she would have no job, no income, no activities, no “dance career” and no boyfriends.

It's scripted to that level???? So they actually tell the gang what to say and how to interact with each other? What in the hell. They need better writers. Would that mean that Whitney didn't call Lenny 6,456 times that night? I thought for sure that was her control freak self. Has Whit commented on Roy's announcement yet? I am sure that she will morph it into how she turned him gay.

I think (hope?) Whitney knows that Roy being gay makes her look even worse...like, more pathetic, for throwing herself at a guy who is not only way too young for her and way too good for her, but GAY to boot. Just one more reason he wouldn't ever in a billion years date her. As if he needed another reason. 

Related news: Whitney has made me more straight. I used to consider myself "a three-beer queer," now I am downgraded to "gay for pay."

So it became the season of Twit & Avi instead.

I worked 50-60 hours in my field of study during my first year in my PhD program, which did not allow you to do anything less than full time during the first year. It nearly killed me, so I know what it's like. During my dissertation, I picked up 10 hours/week on a grant, worked 20 hours/week as a TA, and worked two other part-time jobs (and taught myself structural equation modelling for my 250+-page dissertation). I'm sorry for your friend having to call it quits after the advisor required; that's a bunch of crap and she should've been able to continue with a new, supportive chair. ?

But Avi "working" 7-8 years and not finishing a doctorate is a bit egregious by most university standards. I have a doctoral cohort member that took five years, but she couldn't pass comps because her English proficiency was horrible (program/university's fault for admitting her) - and I seriously doubt that she was chasing dudes around and neglecting her studies... ?

Whelp...my life now has value...during her live thing, she said she was going to go on a trip with Avi on her Christmas break...so I asked "you mean Christmas break from BGDC?", and she "liked" that post.

Ignored all my posts about her Gaydar and Roy...but Ill take this LIKE bone...and die happy.

I just cannot watch an hour of junior high blathering but I did see her SMOKING at about 18:30. 

Yeah, Twit's smoking when she leans out of the frame several times to take a drag.

Otherwise,  she hogs the camera and rarely let's the other women talk.  I watched abt half of the video chat.  

Yeah, that's our Twit, telling the whole world about how much info she knows about that creep Avi, whom she was blubbering about marrrying and  changing religions.  I do wonder why he hasn't gotten a cease and desist order on her yet, but there got to be a lawsuit coming for defamation of character.  I wonder what his school officials think about his dishonesty towards these women and scamming money from them.  If I was his supervisor, I would be checking his invoices and petty cash. I bet he stays with Nada cuz she comes from a wealthy family.

Oh and Put on a BRA!!!

Can someone refresh my memory as to when this Avi thing ended (well in Avi’s mind) since it hasn’t seemingly ended for Whitney since she’s talking about it nonstop.  Considering they’ve filmed the season and are a few episodes into broadcasting it, it’s obviously been some time.  It’s one thing to commiserate with the other women initially but I mean traveling literally across the world and talking on a somewhat consistent basis when your a day a part time wise is sort of ridiculous.  I’m guessing Avi was a jerk or at the very least a deadbeat who doesn’t pay back money according to Whitney and the one other girl, but talking for hours nonstop about this is obsessive and I don’t think particularly healthy.  If this is so traumatic I suggest the ladies talk to a professional.  The last person I’d take relationship advice from is Whitney.  

I know I was on here a week ago saying I felt bad for Whitney or more specifically felt I was being too snarky....well I think I’ve toned it down a couple of degrees, but any sympathy I had for her went out the window when she booked Nada on a hike then left the poor girl stranded on a chair in the heat.  I don’t care if Nada is obese or what the reason was.  Whitney left her guest seating on a folding chair in the woods! What?  A guest that flew halfway around the world  then she wants the girl to sleep in bed with her. Nada’s a grown woman, so if she’s willing to do all this, I question her motives too.  Either all these people are incredibly lonely, or just want to be on tv.  Now we have Whitney and Alison laid up in bed together in FB pictures.  The whole thing is completely RIDICULOUS and this is coming from someone who has watched all the Little Women shows, so I’m quite the expert in ridiculousness when I see it.

I honestly wonder if he's been paid off or if he's waiting until the end of the season to see how far it goes. Usually someone like this will make a statement in their own defense, and Avi hasn't done that, which makes me think he's either been advised not to, or he's agreed not to. I'm kind of leaning toward him being paid off. We keep hearing that he didn't agree to be on camera, but we don't know what he did agree to. Maybe someone with Whitney's Razor can help me out here, because I tend to overthink.

It may simply be that he doesn't want to engage in a debate or argument with this lunatic Whitney (who's gone full Fat-al Attraction at this point).  Maybe he's heeding the maxim to (no pun intended) "not feed the trolls', recognizing Whitney as doing nothing more than trolling his actual life.

At the same time, assuming he's not a completely made-up and scripted "character" (which is not out of the range of possibility) his defense that "you were all nothing more than fuck-buddies and ATM's to me", while completely defensible if he was honest about it (and I suspect he may have been honest enough) doesn't exactly cover him in glory.

I think you nailed it on the head. Taking the episodes at face value (despite knowing its scripted) Whit comes across as a psychotic stalker. The fact that Whit and TLC are ok with this speaks volumes.

She said the affair lasted from Sep 2016-Mar 2017. But that's WhitneyMath, remember. There is the evidence on her FB page, however, that she first began going nuts about what she perceived as Avi's infidelity in Apr 2017.

Payoff! Excellent theory. Since he is apparently perpetually short of cash -- which Twit mentioned in her live video last night -- that would certainly explain why he hasn't responded to her character assassination of him. Waiting until the end of the season makes sense, too, esp. since she is STILL carrying on about him on FB.

Fat-al Attraction! ? 

According to Roy Brown, TLC tried to get him to be in a "Whitney + Roy" story arc this season, so it's certainly within the realm of possibility Avi is also just a scripted character. Twit's Apr 2017 FB meltdown seems to mitigate that theory, but I definitely think Twit's affair with Avi was a lot less intense than either delusional Twit or scriptwriting TLC made it to be.

I don't have sympathy for any of them, not the "victimized" women, not Avi. Mostly I think it's super tacky behavior from all involved and I'm confused about why we're supposed to care enough for TLC and the Sweat Posse to keep producing more breathless sessions exposing more minutiae (in contrast to the Sweat Posse exposing their resemblance to Gargantua).

That said, I don't think Avi was in on it. I think both he and TLC/Sweatney have consulted their respective lawyers and as long as she and TLC don't give his surname or show his face, he has no cause of action. Truth serves as a defense even if they did, and he'd find it time consuming and difficult to prove a personal "injury" based just on what they've done this far. He's seeing the consequences of choosing to mess around with a woman who has the unfortunate combo of no dignity and a huge platform.

Twit snapped a selfie with her & Allison at the end of their live video last night.

Why is Twit constitutionally unable to be anything but physically inappropriate with people, incl. near-strangers? She lolls on Tal or forces him to straddle her or sucks his nipple. She snuggles with Buddy while live-streaming. She grabs Heather's breast. She makes Donna massage her breasts. She smells Nada's hair & wants to sleep in the same bed with her. When I was a youth, there was a term, nymphomaniac, which has been out of vogue for years. But what else do you call a woman who is unable to keep her hands -- and giant body -- off other people?

I always wonder what makes Donna put up with Whitney's harassment? Is she that formidable paid for being Whits caretaker ( imho it’s as good as sure she is in this - or a similar labeled- position)? Or are Donna or her family in dome ways indebted or dependent on the Thore clan? 

 

Also not related, but is Hunter older or younger than Whitney? I heard conflicting reports on that?

One of the notable minutes from the live stream yesterday was when Whitney was asked if she'd dated anyone since Avi. (Bear in mind Whitney's dramatic "I WILL NEVER LOVE AGAIN" scene in her parents' living room.) Whitney boasted she had had sex the night before, then got all coy about who it was with, and ended by saying she wouldn't divulge too much because "this could be my storyline for season 6!"

I haven't watched the video but I read a few of the comments, it is hilarious how many people are writing down diagnoses of various personality disorders. I assume they are trying to diagnose Avi, but most of them actually apply to Whit :-P

I sincerely hope that Donna gets to live rent-free in that house. If not, she is a lousy negotiator.

She also said sex with Avi, compared to other men she's "dated," was nothing special, just "normal." Yet remember her conversation with Babs about what a majestic penis he has.

I don't know how to say this without sound insensitive toward really fat people in general, but I find myself a little curious how sex with a woman Whitney's size would work.  I mean..... there's just so much distance between the outer layers of fat and the.... uh... waffle iron of love (sorry, I'm pretty bashful too).  How do you reach your love ladle into it?  I feel like you'd have to have a really big.... ladle.

Welp, only last week I posited Whitney's Razor (that "Whitney lying about shit in order to create a story line for the show" is always the most likely explanation for any of her behavior), and this week she provides a textbook example.
