Tiff may have had experience with someone in recovery, Frederick is full of herion addicts, chances are this South African guy's addiction is nothing new for her and does not see red flags when she looks at him.

Frederick is sometimes referred to as Fredneck.

My husband’s from New Market, MD and his parents now live in Fredneck, lol, so we’re familiar with the area.

There are tons of good restuarants and good hair salons, it's only 40 min from me.  Did I hear right that Tiffany is a hair dresser? If she is can she get a job in South Africa?  She left a lucrative area, lot's of money in and around F-town.

We're about an hour away from Frederick and you're so right, there are a ton of great restaurants and hair salons!  We had our rehearsal dinner at DeFranchesca's (I don't know if I'm spelling that right) there 24 years ago, but it's since closed.  It's a nice little town, except for the seedy parts, lol.

She’s a makeup artist.

I think Johoon is the Korean equivalent of Cory...Devean will take him for everything he’s got.  Although if his parents are left alone with her brat, the brat could disappear.

Jihoon’s mom is rocking that crazy 60s do.

Ecuador-Washington guy is so obviously a target you just gotta laugh. Apparently he gets to her town, she just boinks him for six months, $40K richer, which prolly goes a long way in Ecuador. Wotta maroon. At least he can return to that stunning forest-y family compound, he's not completely out of luck, and his parents seem very nice and reasonable.

I noticed the "wave" coffee table while cory was one the phone-no way I would leave that table behind for ANYBODY!

LOL

When Tiffany and Ronald’s mother arrived at the rehab center, did anyone else think all those guys at the table were playing poker? 

Was it just me? 

Tiffany and Ronald have both packed on the pounds since they met.

I 100% believed they were playing cards.

That seems like the equivalent of a recovering alcoholic drinking non-alcoholic beer. Slippery slope.

[Mrs. Hanson]

I just went back and watched that part On Demand (several times) and I saw no cards.  I would like to think a "Wellness Center" that treats gambling addiction would not allow card playing.  But then again they are not stopping him from getting married 8 days out.

He is an adult.  They can not stop him.  However, the counselor WAS trying to get Tiffany to wise up and not go through with this yet but rocks never listen.  He could have told her their was a 99% chance that getting married so soon will lead him straight back to rehab and she would be in her talking head saying something like "Yes, the counselor said it would be hard but we have a legitimate shot at making it work."

I wonder if she has attended any support groups for family members of addicts.....I would be surprised if she did.  I don't think she understands the nature of addiction and how it's a family issue, not just the addict. If she did, she would see the worried faces, tears of pain and frustration over addicts who just can't seem to stay clean. 

  I have seen what addiction can do to great people and their families.  It's tough.  Most are destroyed and the family members are put through hell as they eventually walk away from the addict. They may stay clean for a time period and then relapse with horrible consequences.  So, you lose your home, your health insurance, your stability, your peace of mind, your trust, etc.  Voluntarily signing up for that life is really questionable behavior.  There is no way she gets it.  But, she'll find out.

I agree - she sees what she want to see, hears what she wants to hear.  I saw a promo where there is a bit of dustup and he is driving.  She says something like, "You are gonna freak over THAT?" or something like that.  

He is an adult, and can marry whoever he wants.  I would just like to know if the folks at the Wellness Center counseled him on getting married so soon.  I bet they did but hey.....what do they know?  HE IS IN LOVE!  Getting married and becoming a stepdad to an 8 year old is a lot for anyone, let alone a fresh outta rehab addict.

[Mrs. Landingham]

And sadly, I do not believe for a nanosecond that Tiffany will go back to the US with her son if Ronald relapses and maybe refuses to return to rehab.  She’s ride or die with this Ronald dude and she’s going to make her poor son ride it out with her. I very much hope I’m wrong. 

[SunnyBeBe]

Well, these kids will have plenty of video to play for their therapist when they go for their sessions one day. When the therapist asks them what was their childhood like, they say, F'd up and press Play, so they can see just how messed their mothers were. All caught on tape....

I thought the counselor was terrible. He basically laid Ronald’s sobriety at Tiffany’s feet saying that the hope of this relationship is what got him through. That’s not how long lasting sobriety works. And then he said other addictions like porn or booze might show up and I 200% knew Ronald has current full blown

addictions to porn and booze.

Maybe that kind of talk is foreplay for them. She insults and denigrates him and then fucks him. 

He should’ve just turned and got on the first flight home. He’s never going to see any of that 40k again and  all she’s waiting for now is the $$ he got for selling his car. After she’s squirreled away that money, she no longer needs him. 

EVILlin isn't done with simpleton Corey yet. Sure, his 40K is gone, the money for his Merc may already be spent, his "TV" is now hers, as is his laptop, but she knows damn well that Corey still has a kidney to sell and I'm sure if she flashes her mummified, pyramid smelling vagina at him, she'll convince him to completely forgo his dignity and turn a few tricks with the local guys and turn over the earnings from that to her as well. Then and ONLY then, when moron has no life savings, no car, no kidney, no self respect, no dignity, no life in him, no circulating red blood cells...only then will she hire the her cousin's best buddy to feed Corey to the local street pigs.

If I were Jenny, I would get a few shalwars for everyday use, and a couple of sarees for special occasions.  And the fluffy bun she had her hair in was the most flattering look I’ve seen her in. But thankfully I’m not Jenny. I do love Indian food and clothing though.  The apartment was also nice.  Maybe these two fools could have a life together, but the cost to him would be huge.

The greasy hair, oh my stars ! And to top it off, she wears this beautiful Indian tunic, with slits up to her hips and - no pants/leggings underneath, walking down the streets like that. Is she insane. On the tell all they were asked " did anyone suspect Sumit was married?" They were all shocked to find out ! Am I the Only one in the world who had the words HES MARRIED, screaming in my brain the moment I saw him ?
