MakingBacon October 18, 2018 Share October 18, 2018 Are we sure Hazel actually has a son or has any relationship with him? Also, there is an assumption that if she moves to The US she will be in a better position to bring her son over? Do we have any evidence that the dad, who is currently raising him, would allow him to just move out of the country? Why wouldn’t Hazel be in the same position as Rachel with a father not wanting their child to move to another country? Also, if Hazel knows her child can never move to the US, is it worth it to be so far away and see him so little? Is she actually going to send money back and would the dad take it? The dad may be in a great financial position and not need her monetary help so that wouldn’t be a reason to move. We know she wouldn’t be moving for love. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4762958

Only they know the real timeline, we’ve only seen a highly edited version of the wedding, miscarriage, and Paul’s return to the US and have no idea how time actually elapsed between the events. I can’t blame Paul for being suspicious. That's the other thing. If she keeps having miscarriages, maybe they need to investigate further. Sometimes they just happen, and it's no one's fault. On the show, the doctor said a potential genetic issue. (Could be something like Rh+/Rh-). Making more babies with an unknown genetic condition wreaking havoc is all kinds of crazy. These two are more toxic than Jesse and Darcy because they're trying to bring new life/lives into a very unstable situation. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4763169

She seemed uncertain as to whether or not bringing the child to the US would ever be a possibility and was still raring to go. I think ANY parent (mother or father) who abandons a young child and moves thousands of miles away is a piece of crap. But specifically when a woman does it....bc you know, we are socially conditioned to to be the care giver and bc we have that gestational tie...it's beyond appalling to me. I doubt Hazel's ex has much legally-supported authority to keep the child in the Philippines...bc face it, the country seems backwards as hell, without much of a legal system or safety net of public assistance or anything. I just don't think Hazel gives a rat's ass about the kid if doing so would delay her emigration to the US by a single day. But yes, I'd like to know the degree of effort Hazel AND TARIK made to compel the father to let the child go, too. Tarik was willing to trick off thousands$$$$ to buy a piece of ass. But did he offer the father any money or any concessions at all to take the child? Hmmmm, anyone recall Matt and Alla's story? Remember who got off the plane in Kentucky w/ Alla?

Many women have irregular periods or their cycle varies by a couple days or a week. IMO, the only reason to try and “bring on your period” with some kind of herbal tea that you have to get from some back alley supplier is because you know or strongly suspect that you are pregnant.

Divide the dough into little balls and keep in freezer for snacking later. What I noticed in the photo in the article was the Wow Bao in the background. I can't make my own bao, and those things are goooood. Wow Bao is always a priority when I'm in Chicago. 13 hours ago, millennium said: It would be great to live in a world where people's livelihoods and self-esteem are not affected by one's looks, body shape, age, gender, etc. I agree, and have chosen to fight the power. I would never tell a woman she doesn't look good enough just as she is. Men don't have to fix themselves up to be presentable, and it should be the same for women, but it won't be if we continue to accept it, and even play into it. And again--is crazy-face Darcey or hay-hair Angela really more aesthetically pleasing than Rachel? 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4769786

I agree with you. Now I don’t disagree with @millennium that women are judged more on our appearance and how we fit into societal concepts of attractiveness, but I think Rachel fits into the concept of what a 30 something woman “should” look like, on a day out sight seeing just fine. Would I go to work or a party dressed like that, of course not, but there’s nothing wrong with jeans and sweaters. If I saw Rachel out pushing her daughters stroller on a weekend she would look like any other woman. I love fashion and style as much as the next woman but I think with so many reality show participants being “done up” all the time, the perception is skewed. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4769805
Kiss my mutt October 21, 2018 Share October 21, 2018 Jesse is the master of the mindfuck. I find Rachel attractive but she doesn’t seem to feel that way so maybe making some changes in her case would help her feel better about herself since she seems to complain about the extra weight. Angela probably thinks she pretty hot stuff as is. Darcy is too far gone to recover her original looks which were very attractive. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4769843

Blizzard October 21, 2018 Share October 21, 2018 Rachel obviously has zero self esteem and she's made enough derogatory comments about her weight and appearance that you know that's where its coming from. I think she's quite attractive (and I'd kill to have that beautiful hair), but she doesn't feel good about herself and it shows. I'm sure it would come out loud and clear if she went for a job interview, especially for a professional, well paying job. So yeah, she would be more successful in life if she changed her appearance, but it would be due to increased self confidence, not what she physically looked like to the rest of world. She should take some self confidence lessons from Angela, who has plenty to spare. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4770023

She should take some self confidence lessons from Angela, who has plenty to spare. I don’t think Angela has self confidence at all. If she did she wouldn’t be so defensive about the remarks that Michael made. A woman who is confident about her appearance would have had no problem purchasing a dress in Nigeria. There were plenty of Nigerian women in that marketplace that were larger than she is and were wearing those outfits. Molly strikes me more as a woman who is comfortable with her body. I never heard her say anything about being a larger woman and neither did Luis ( he was an ass in other ways though). i think Rachel instead of blaming herself for her poor decisions in life, focuses on her weight, and blames it for holding her back. And Jon is going to be another of those poor choices.IMO he’s well aware of her insecurity and is using it to his benefit. The whole persona he’s created for himself as defender of women’s honor and the ultimate modern man, so comfortable with his masculinity that he can step in and be a father to a child some other man has “abandoned”. He’s a phony and she’s a fool. Edited October 21, 2018 by iwasish 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4770263
Baltimore Betty October 21, 2018 Share October 21, 2018 I am half tempted to get Jon and Rachel to sing Happy Birthday to my unsuspecting son...it would be payback for getting me hooked on this show.

PityFree October 21, 2018 Share October 21, 2018 I was re-watching the tell nothing special and realized that Jon and Rachel probably wouldn’t have gone through with the wedding if TLC hadn’t offered to pay for everything. I really wish TLC hadn’t done that because I think they interfered in a way that’s bad for the couple. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/72913-season-2-discussion/page/121/#findComment-4770374

If Karine is that 'suspect' why did he marry her? And she has every right to be furious when he goes on national tv to say he needs a DNA test because she posts responses and hearts on someone's Facebook who lives 5000 miles away. Karine's right - he has destroyed any reputation she had left. WTF is wrong with him (aside from a clear case of Asperger's perseveration on behaviour that does not exist?) The baby needs DNA to guarantee American rights? What a load of shit. If my husband wanted an STD test for every time I have told a male friend his picture looks good, I would have a fridge full of urine. Don't marry if you cannot trust someone completely. Paul and Karine need to get off my screen, I am over it.
