Bill calls Jennifer and is going to be “late.” New Pharm rep perhaps?
Marge and Jennifer are meeting to iron things out. Marge is looking already confrontational. Or nervous. She turns out being understanding and perhaps sorry. But ya know, the Bravo paycheck was calling. I sometimes wonder if they get bonused for doing this shit?
Snickers Coffeemate Marge really ??? That shit is so bad for you plain, but the added sugar and fake flavorings to make it taste like a Snickers bar? Are we ten? Or a grown-up? Put milk in it like a normal person. If you don’t like coffee then have some hot cocoa, and an actual Snickers. Truthfully, that would probably be better for you than that all of that chemical shit.
And did she bring that crap with her ????? in her purse ??? My God. That’s commitment.
Okay sorry I’m done, I couldn’t let that go. I saw something on Twitter about it last night but I thought it said she TOOK Snickers Coffeemate from somewhere. I was picturing her throwing a bunch of the little creamer containers in her purse. (which I sometimes do with salt and stevia packets – please don’t tell) Carrying this around with you is just as bad. Worse. I totally do not even remember what they’re talking about ?
Oh yeah “the affair” Imagine that. Okay well she may be drinking a Snickers flavored coffee, however they ARE discussing this like adults. Just wish maybe we could talk about something else. Did someone else cheat besides Evan and Bill? What about Marge’s Joe, or Melissa’s Joe? Someone? Anyone. Marge seems remorseful.
Jennifer realizes this was never dealt with, now she’s tasked with worrying about her own trauma, and trying to protect and cover for Bill. Marge says she thought it was “no biggie” because of their culture. Not really buying that. Jennifer said over and over she had a problem with cheating. She’s scrounging to make excuses for herself. You do feel badly for Jennifer, especially if you were also cheated on, but at the same time, she’s on this very popular show, with her kids included, televised around the world. The whole nine.
She had to have known it was going to come out. Especially since Margaret hinted at it previously. I do wish she’d drop the “this hurt my kids” thing. I think it’s for extra pity, and you shouldn’t be using your kids for that. I understand WHY she stayed with him, in her situation with a newborn and 3 other kids, but she made that decision as a fully consenting adult. She could have divorced him and had him by the balls, and rakin in alimony and child support for four kids. But she chose to forgive him. I DO feel badly for her. I feel like it was easier, and again I do understand.
Sadly, I know EXACTLY how she feels, and felt when she learned the info. It’s an awful feeling. And it’s awful to be dependent on a man and have them make you feel like you’re not doing anything right.
When really you’re doing EVERYTHING right. They are just insecure AF and feel the need to wave their dick around. It’s gross. If anyone reading this is in a relationship like that, please message me if you need someone to just listen and understand and not judge. I should have divorced my husband long before I finally did.
Okay so I should take off my nutritionist and therapist hat I was borrowing for now I suppose… This really something that I feel strongly about. I guess you can tell.
Jennifer talks to Margaret about her frustration with Bill (of all people to confide to) that he hid in the bushes during “the argument” at the beach. She goes on to explain general frustration with him, and being in an arranged marriage as a lot of us cannot fully understand, and how they were literally “getting to know each other” while married. She tells Marge he criticized her a lot (and I can relate) and tried to do better to please him. (and I can relate) Meanwhile the douche has the (insert every single swear word here) audacity to be out having an affair ??!!! While she’s home with 4 kids? Kicking herself for not pleasing him over something stupid, I assume, such as housework, cooking and blow jobs.
Marge’s eyebrows go up to the top of her head when she says this. Independent modern woman Marge married to a man that’s afraid of her, would never be busting her ass and tripping over herself to please some fucking guy. But some women do. And in Jen’s culture, this is the norm. Sadly.
Bill does need to own this though. He does need to address it with the group. And sincerely apologize to Jennifer on camera. I don’t think that he ever did. Margaret says she does feel sorry. She seems sorry.
Well we quickly segue into Evan’s “alleged” infidelity, and Teresa disclosing the “alleged” rumor last year. Of course we’re “circling back” to that, and that leads to Teresa digging for this info, and spreading it at the dude’s own party, when she’s freaking about everyone asking (not really digging since it’s all over the internet) about this goof she’s now with. Honestly guys, I’m wishing we could talk about something else.
Bill’s affair, Evan’s possible affair, (I continue to believe it’s true) Luis being an abusive love bombing narcissist that preys on vulnerable or newly divorced women he can fool. Jesus, it almost sounds like a dude pattern here ! These three dudes that didn’t even know each other prior to the show, fuck around on their wives and/or are abusive pieces of shit, that like to boss around and intimidate women.
Who are usually smaller and weaker than them. Now that takes a secure tough guy right ? What a bunch of stand up fellows. One of them sounds like the dude I’ll probably be dating next. If forced to choose, between three good for nothing disrespectful losers with mommy issues, I think I would have to go for the plastic surgeon. Yes, I’m being superficial. If you’re gonna be with a dude that treats you like crap, criticizes you, and cheats on you, ya may as well at least be able to walk around draped in Chanel, and live in a beautiful mansion with housekeepers. I had a husband like that with not one penny to his name. Now he’s someone else’s problem, Thank God.
Jennifer sort of throws her best bestie of all time, under the bus to Marge, and insinuates that Teresa WAS digging about Evan.
She defends Luis, that he always SEEMS like a mostly nice guy, and we see the flash of the beach BBQ when Teresa interrupted him over and over as he was trying to lie about the content of the video.
I guess I’m mixed on that, because Teresa was being ANNOYING AF. ANNOYING A F, so in order to get her to shut up, he had to get firm. He really wasn’t rude. That one mouth two ears thing sounds like something he says. It was a little disrespectful, but she was also being disrespectful. It does concern me with the swirling rumors about being abusive in the past to other women. Several failed relationships are also a red flag. Please don’t believe that there was something wrong with every single one of them, and that they’re all ‘crazy.’ Ladies the crazy one is most likely sitting across the table from you telling you that you’re so beautiful and funny. I digressed again.
They leave the coffee shop and they’re hugging. Whatever.
So hard change of subject – Did Dolores get butt implants too? Was her butt always that round and perky? And YES, as she just said, I have noticed (and I’m sure you have too) that since she got her tummy tuck, her stomach is out, every single time she’s filmed.
I watched last week but didn’t blog it since I was on vacay, and I had to watch it on my computer, which makes it hard to watch and write, but I was thinking that exact thing.
It seems a little ‘over the top’ that she can’t put on a damned top. I would be impressed if she put the work in to get her stomach flat and may be more like “you go girl, show that shit off!” but getting sliced and stitched, is the easy way out. Put on a shirt. This is getting ridiculous. She’s not 25.
I got accosted by my jealous sister, and her jealous daughter 2 summers ago for wearing shorts and a top that had a little bit of open back. (it was July, and 80) Jesus if I walked around like this, they would loser their minds.
This David is one weird ass fucking dude. Spending time with her whole fucking family – ex husband, kids, parents, but cannot even send her a text or call her. If he misses her so much, why doesn’t he try to work things out? All the bitch wants is an engagement ring. If he loves her so much, he can’t get her a fucking ring?? Put a ring on it !! Guess he doesn’t like it. Maybe he’s sick of the ridiculous belly shirts too.
She needs to just cut him from her life totally. Forbid him to interact with her family if he doesn’t have the decency to respect her. I don’t believe for one second he “talks about her all the time” as Frank is trying to sell her.
Wow I just got really bitchy. I think talking about the cheating above that I experienced, got me all cranked up. But I stand behind it all. I just don’t have the patience to sugar coat.
Can’t these women take their Bravo bucks and get a new phone when their phones have completely broken and cracked screens. This is what teenagers’ phones look like. (Margaret’s)
Traci has planned a group ‘retreat.” These are always such a “treat.” When can Bravo make it official and just start calling these trips/vacays/retreats what they are? Packing twelve suitcases for sometimes two days, traveling to another city, state or country, and screaming at each other ?
Then there’s always the drill of one person getting pissed, packing, insisting she’s leaving, then doesn’t leave. I can’t wait. I think this is just a day thing. Still, same scenario.
Jackie has her ten year old daughter try on her pants. She says to Evan probably not good that they fit her. But she sort of said it like she was proud.
She starts to talk about Renfro’s the eating disorder clinic, and making excuses that she doesn’t really need “all of that.” They are recommending that she stay at the clinic to get the therapy that she needs.
Jackie makes a point to show these ugly logo Fendi flip flops. Did ya hear the cha ching?
She doesn’t seem to really want to do this at all. She can’t even do the second choice of sparing nine hours per week, (probably 2ish hrs Mon – Fri ) to help herself, and get better, and be able to eat something besides salad every day?
She has no interest at all in having normal eating habits and probably never will. Maybe Evan cheated on her because he wanted to see what it’s like to go sit in a restaurant, and actually have your partner order a plate of food, and not sit there crinkling her nose and making faces like a four year old.
I’m still being bitchy. But honestly why bother making it your big ‘story line” and cry about it, if you don’t want to put in the work?
We break to annoying Melissa, and the future football stars, the short stout Gorga boys, whose parents sold their home and switched school districts so that they could be star football players. She seems to be serving literally a bowl of lettuce. Is Jackie coming over ?
Melissa, no one cares to hear about your cheater dad that croaked 25 years ago. How did you even notice? You constantly state that he disappeared for weeks on end, running around on your mom. You’re all better off. Too bad her mom wasn’t smart enough to have an insurance policy on him. I have one on my lying cheating narc ex, because if he croaks, I wouldn’t get the portion of his pension I took in the divorce settlement.
I know the general consensus is that this phantom “sister” from a few years back, was a ‘story line’ but all kidding and making fun of Melissa aside, she probably does have some half siblings running around somewhere, with her dad being a man whore for years and years.
Bill and Jennifer scene. He scolds her for crumbs being on the floor. This man. Jennifer should let the fucking pharm rep have the stupid fucker. She brings up his affair and he immediately gets that greasy smug/smirky/embarrassed combo look on his face.
Margaret and Jackie have a get together. Marge has her huge Fendi bag, so they can get paid by Fendi.
Because I am surely going to go out and buy a $3000 Fendi bag, because I saw Margaret on RH carrying one. Please. The viewers should all be sent one just for watching this shit, and hearing the same discussions week after week.
I saw on Twitter about Jackie telling her daughter not to eat a croissant last night. I just watched today, so wasn’t sure what that was all about. It was kind of stupid. Like her and Marge are going to eat those six croissants. Marge likes to eat, but I think her daughter could have had a fucking croissant. Moms with eating disorders often pass this to their daughters. You think that would be motivation for her to get better.
As soon as they sit down, Jackie starts about her eating disorder. I was hoping this wouldn’t be an every single episode thing, but here we are. Discussing it again, and she refuses to get help for it. She points out to Marge, who carries Snickers Coffeemate in her fucking purse, that she has these “drizzly healthy low cal rice cakes.”
Something tells me Marge is gonna be goin for the croissants, and not those. She relays the convo to her about how she cannot POSSIBLY make the time to get the counseling and help she needs when she has “4 ‘little’ kids” who really aren’t that little. They can all bathe themselves and use the toilet, and have a dad. Also her parents nearby. She could take this time for herself easily. She maintains she needs to do it at “her own pace.” (or not at all) Why was the time even wasted, and that whole dramatic scene, when she went to the clinic, and that poor girl there was so nerved out from the cameras, she was breaking out in hives.
Margaret is looking at her like she knows she’s full of shit and she ain’t doin shit to help herself.
Again, why talk about it? She’s certainly not helping girls or women who may be watching this. that also struggle with their eating, by making excuse after excuse.
Teresa is carrying Chanel, guess she’s not on the Fendi bandwagon.
David wants Dololres’ mom to stay with him. He has the time to take care of a sick elderly woman at his home, but never had one night off for Dolores? Because he was always “working.” Or pretending to be working.
Back and forth scenes with Dolores, Teresa and Jennifer, and Margaret and Jackie, and the six croissants.
What’s this ‘Tenafly’ thing they keep saying ?? I literally don’t know what they’re saying. Is this a town ?
Marge tells Jackie that Jennifer indicated that Teresa was digging around on Evan.
Teresa gets all worked up over the Luis thing again, and claims he’s the most perfect man on earth.
Traci arrives to this retreat thing. This is going to be the shit show of all shit shows. Melissa arrives and shakes the dude’s hand who’s in charge of these bitches, and says “nice to meet you” while not even looking at him.
Margaret is telling everyone who will listen about her convo with Jennifer. Everyone feels bad for her, they say. Dolores says “Teresa is coming in hot.” Margaret wants to know where the food is. This bitch doesn’t have an eating disorder.
Jennifer is now really sorry about all of the people she screwed over.
Teresa comes in caring a shit load of gift bags threatening she’s “not in a good mood, and this isn’t gonna be good…” Remember Gia and how she kept saying she’s “gonna get aggravated” in the opener to Joe, where Gia made her “Housewife debut” of sorts. This is how the Guidice women roll. They walk around threatening everyone how they’re ‘gonna be mad’ When they’re already mad. Dumb.
Margaret and Teresa both bitching they’re not “woods” people. For the love of God, this is for a few hours. Put on bug spray and stfu. Teresa has on lip gloss like six inches thick and Margaret makes a joke about bugs getting stuck in it. Which is funny.
Teresa continues to dole out threats about throwing someone from the tree. Who all is impressed with her threats? Traci assigns everyone in teams, and Traci is with her.
Teresa is walking ahead of everyone griping about “Two people here that like to talk behind her back” instead of addressing them directly like an adult.
Teresa continues this berating behavior and wants to come after Traci for “talking shit about her”
One person in each team is blindfolded with ‘Ramona Eyes’ goggles as their teammate guides them walking across this log thing up high. I’m not gonna say I would be excited to do this either. But I would do it. Teresa is being really bitchy and no one can concentrate.
Margaret is trying to turn Jennifer against Teresa about the Evan girlfriend thing, for not sticking up for her when she was the one asking questions. Jennifer says in her interview that there’s a “comfort” being around Teresa ?? Okay. I’ll just leave that go.
Teresa is pouting and refusing to guide Traci, who is her partner. So Melissa does.
Teresa is pissed that Margaret and Jennifer are friends. She can’t have that.
She is doing her typical hypocrite bullshit. She and Margaret get into it, and Margaret tells her she “looked like shit all last year …” whatever that means.
Well you don’t insult Teresa’s looks or call her stupid. There are no tables around,
but a lot of trees…
