Southern Charm: Guess Who’s Coming To Lunch?

May 29, 2017 by tamaratattles 75 Comments

I’m bored too, Craig.

When last we left this group we has suffered through a deplorable dinner party thrown by one old crone who is jealous of a twenty something with addiction issues and attended by another who displayed the world’s most deplorable manners by dictating how others should behave in her presence. They both did so in horrific rayon muumuus cover in dog photos. If you had not watched the last episode, you might think I am making this up.  I am not. It was worse than the time Patti threw a bunch of dollar store inflatable flamigo beer cozies in her pool and thought it was a civilized event.

At the end, Cameran was sick of everyone butting into Kathryn and Thomas’ relationship. Um Cameran is on of the prime busybodies in everyone’s business. Shep called everyone fucking stupid for not wanting to film with Kathryn anymore, because there is seriously no show without her and he likes the paycheck.

Craig found out that his thesis was accepted and he is now free to take the bar. Spoiler alert, he passes on his first attempt.  But on a more serious note, why does he have a flimsy IKEA desk smack dab in the middle of the living room with cords going everywhere? Gizmo seems to like it because Craig dumped out a bunch of treats there so that someone could celebrate the good news with him. 


Craig and Naomie go to dinner to celebrate his accomplishment and Naomie is thrilled and congratulates Craig and gives him a big old kiss right on the smacker. Oh wait. That didn’t happen Naomie’s response was along the lines of “It about time” and she pointed out it is a bigger weight off her shoulders than his. I still firmly believe this drama is strictly so they will have a storyline.  Happy relationships make for boring TV.  But if this is really how Naomie is, Craig needs to cut bait and fish again. Then she smugly said, “It feels good to do what you are supposed to do, doesn’t  it?” She’s just awful.

Chelsea and Cameran did a HomeGoods commercial.

Shep calls Cameran to invite her to lunch with Kathryn, Craig and Whitney. He rightly points out that Thomas has just as many issues as Kathryn and he gets a pass. He doesn’t think that is fair. Amazingly, Cameran agrees and says she will come to the luncheon. They haven’t seen each other since the reunion. That didn’t go well. 

Thomas and Landon are going to dinner. This is completely fake storyline. Landon is beyond carried away with it. In her confessional, she informs us that if she would agree to a relationship with Thomas that he would quickly put a ring on it and buy her all the horses she ever wanted. But she is just not sure. Lord, I hate this sea creature and her delusions.

Landon and Thomas meet up at 492, a restaurant that looks like someplace that old people eat. Never heard of it. I haven’t been anywhere with the outdated double table cloth since 1997.  It just gets weirder from there. Thomas comments on some sort of shoe string with red glass baubles and she says it is from Turkey. This lead drunk Thomas to inform us that turquoise comes from Turkey. (nope) Then Thomas spills his wine because he is “nervous.”  Is nervous the new word for coked up that kids use today? Landon tosses her head back and does her squinty-eyed fake laugh. I think I may have to fast forward through  this before the set up lady proclaims that Landon and Thomas are soul mates. Oh there it is. This woman may be more drunk than Thomas.

It’s time for lunch with Kathryn at California Dreaming. Cameran has opted to bring Whitney along for moral support. Why do I like Whitney this season? WHHHHY? But I do. Cameran and Whitney both are very kind to Kathryn. Very nice. That must have been a very stern talking to by production. But it does seem like these two have come around a bit. Cameran is prettier when she is kind.  It was a really nice little lunch.

Craig and Austen go golfing at a real golf course with a dress code. None got nekkid. Craig’s pants were full of awesome. I love Craig. We get dueling scenes of Austen talking about Chelsea to Craig while Shep goes to “get his hair cut” by Chelsea. Austen basically says that if Shep were to try to come in between his relationship with Chelsea that would be the end of his relationship with both of them. Craig says that Shep used to hit on Naomie when they first started dating.

Deidre, Saint and Kensie’s nanny are talking like they are husband and wife. Deidre says to Thomas, “So we need to have a discussion about who you are going to invite to Saint’s party.” Excuse me? Side note, Kensie is so adorable. Thomas calls his dad to let him know about the party. He says he has a dentist appointment at 2:30 and if they pull it he is not coming.  Um why not? I realize I have the best dentist in the entire universe, but I cracked a tooth that needed to be pulled and it didn’t hurt a bit and there was no pain at all afterward. I finished running errands before I came home. I do believe the situation with Thomas and is father is real. That makes it even sadder.

Whitney drops by and tells Thomas he will be in LA on the day of Saint’s party but his mother will come. (Because she was forced to). They act like Thomas is trying to decide whether or not to invite Kathryn but this entire party is Kathryn’s first all cast filming for the show.

Landon and her hired boyfriend go to Home Team where over a bowl of collard greens she tells him that she designed ROAM without checking to see if the name was already taken so she could not incorporate because it was. Now it has some other stupid name. I was not going to cover this scene at all but then Landon questioned Drew’s southern heritage when he said he eats collards on New Year’s day.  NO! The fucking moron insists, that’s blackeyed peas. It’s both Drew correctly replies. This bitch need to have her southern card revoked. Then out of the blue Landon cries and breaks up with Drew because she is an old hen with dried up eggs. Or Drew wants out of his Bravo contract.

Kathryn meets Elizabeth at Carmella’s which is apparently a new coffee house in Charleston. It look very pricey. This entire episode every single person’s name has been put of on the screen except for Elizabeth, the one person I needed a little help with. It is Saint’s birthday and Kathryn is sad. If she has passed all her drug tests as she claims why is she just now appealing to the court to see her children? IDGI!!!

Thomas sent Kathryn a letter via Elizabeth inviting her to Saint’s party.

Next week: Cunty Cameran returns trashing Kathryn with the old bitty en route to the birthday party. Oh well, it was nice while it lasted. Perhaps the lunch at California Dreaming was filmed later. Kathryn came in late and had a lot of catch up filming to do.

    I have a red Persian cat too and he acts just like Gizmo, affectionate but still very master of the house. And I love how sweet Craig is to Gizmo. But Naomi, telling Craig she did not really believe he had his law degree, and to see Craig’s face fall? What a nasty, mean, rich daddy’s girl. Run, Craig! Run! I am amazed at Kathryn’s grace, humility and charm. Not because it is surprising, but because I doubt I personally could ever be so open to that pack of rats. Really, her incredible calm makes me consider taking up yoga. Thomas’ reply letter sounded snarky to me and the nanny did act like she was Mrs Ravenal — only she wore the pants in the family. She has a really mean face, like a bullying character from Oliver Twist. How much did they pay that woman at the dive restaurant to launch into the third or fourth Southern Charm “Thomas and Landon are soulmates” soliloguy? It always makes me feel like I need to take a shower. And as for Camaran.. she just seems so disingenuous and cruel. Her not wanting to get involved is taking sides – by excluding Kathryn. And who knows why she showed up with Whitney. Maybe she realizes her discriminatory tactics are not a good look. Anyway, I wonder who the nanny is really for, because I was getting a kind of Prince Charles/Camilla vibe. Rotweillers and all that.

      To be fair, though, you can’t lie about having graduated law school to your family, friends, and gf and then be surprised if they dare second guess you when you announce you have in fact, graduated.

      I do think Naomie was unnecessarily snarky about it, but I get where she’s coming from. I just think it’s mean for her to stay with him at this point if this is how their dynamic is.

        Craig never lied about graduating from law school. Many people still have to finish their thesis after completing their coursework. These people are not Craig’s friends. He doesn’t need to explain the details of thesis writing with them. He sent in the application and didn’t finish writing in time so he took the next test. I don’t get why everyone in on Craig’s jock. He’s the only nice person on the show.

          I think he did, he represented to all of them that he was preparing for the bar and was eligible to take it, he sent in the app knowing he couldn’t. I don’t think he’s a terrible person because of it, just insecure enough that he’d lie for appearance’s sake. But he can’t cry wolf when people don’t take him at face value, though.

          The test he just took and passed was definitely not the next scheduled one from the time he sent in his application with Shep, knowing full well he wasn’t eligible to take the exam. The test is given twice a year in July and Feb. If he just got his results now, that means he took and passed the February 2017 test. The debacle with the fake application was last season, season three, which bravo’s site says began airing 4/4/16, so it had to have been filmed for months prior to April 2016.

          The test prior to Feb 2017 would’ve been July 2016, so Craig couldn’t have been sending in his application for that one, filming was long since done and the season already started.

          All I’m saying is, you can’t mislead people then wonder why they are skeptical of you. I don’t think he’s very nice to Naomie, but again, this is a tv relationship lol

          I think Cameran and Shep are nice.

            That came out wrong, nevermind me, I am overtired and not processing information correctly lol

            I meant he must’ve been applying for a test much earlier than the one previous to what he passed, because filming was too long ago. He was probably applying for the Feb 2016 exam, if they were filming Fall 2015 into early 2016.

            I really need to go to bed 🙁 lol

            You seem to be missing A LOT of things. First of all, as usual his so called friends storyline was to encourage him to apply to take the bar. Unlike normal people, the idiots on the show were told to constantly ask him if he had applied to take the bar. So he sent in the application.

            Despite the fact that this is all storyline, he could have finished his thesis and taken the next test. But he ended up not completing his thesis.

            NONE OF THIS IS THE BUSINESS OF ANY OF HIS CASTMATES.

            But it was made into his storyline, so he mailed the goddamn application. I am sure the price of applying was money well spent to get the fucktards to stop asking him about taking the bar,

            He was filming for months which is not conducive to writing his thesis or studying for the bar. So he focused on the opportunity of SHOOTING A TV SHOW because HE CAN TAKE THE BAR WHENEVER HE WANTS.

            I do not get the sense of moral obligation that you seem to think Craig has to explain his decisions this group of strangers that he was cast on a show with. I do not get why you think every law student must immediately take the bar and got work in a law office. Particularly when they have the opportunity make some fast fun legal money filming at TV show that will wipe out his debts, and set him up financially to pursue the career of his choice in the future be it law or making embroidered pants for organ grinder monkeys.

            I find the level of judgement over all of this exhausting, especially coming from you,

              I didn’t say people are obligated to work in a law office and take the bar immediately after law school, circumstances can be such they delay taking the exam and some may not be able to get work, no biggie. No judgment there.

              My issue was with the fact he played along like he finished his degree, which he hadn’t and was preparing and taking the bar, at a time when he wasn’t. He could’ve just said I have a paper to finish, I don’t have time to study now, I’m going to do it when I’m ready. I don’t know about any moral obligation to the group per se, but generally a person is honest because they are an honest person and it seemed disingenous that he presented himself that way and the facts were different. He definitely has an obligation to be honest to Naomie, so I hope he told her what was really up.

              I can honestly tell you, and maybe this is why, Craig rubs me 100% the wrong way because his behavior reminds me of a really shitty ex of mine. I’m not above admitting that lol. So this aversion to his behavior probably comes from there and is prob why it seems so nonsensical to you. I’m seeing everything he does through a very different lens, is all. 🙂

    Last week Thomas made a reference to it being Kathryn’s weekend with the kids. If I heard that right, then she had them on her weekends, she just hadn’t seen or talked to Thomas in a year? Then, in February for some unexplained (so far) reason, she didn’t get them anymore? I am probably confuzzled, I don’t know when this filming happened that we are currently watching.

    I too like Craig. But I’m trying to recover from him tucking in a chaw on the golf course. So disenchanted.

    Landon’s hair is stupid. I’m only saying that because I’ve already addressed her vocal fry, whininess, delusions, style, arrogance (she’s just “crushing” life), etc. Whether she gives him the green light or not, Thomas is not going to put a ring on it, now or ever.

    I am starting a website. The VERY FIRST thing I did was search to see if the name was already in use (trademarked or otherwise). Duh.

      If I had to hear Landon giggle one more time with Thomas at that restaurant, I was gonna lose my dinner. They need to can Landon asap. I even hate her name. She is whiny and beyond annoying. She and Patty need to ride off in the Southern sunset together. That planted lady at the restaurant telling Landon and Thomas that they were soulmates was the most ridiculous thing ever. Who the hell tells complete strangers crap like that?? I agree Whitney is much more likeable this season. It does not surprise me that Cameron reverts back to catty, bitch mode with ole Pat next week. I like Craig this season but Naomi’s is awful. It seems all the women on this show are kinda awful.

    I’m glad Whitney has screentime. I find him more interesting than anyone else in the cast. I originally loved this show because men were the protagonists, a refreshing change from the housewife banshees. Whitney and Thomas and even Shep have some depth to them despite what production does to keep the narrative as brainless as possible.

    Thomas is confused about turquoise. But not about its name. Turquoise is the French word for Turkish. So called because it was an early exporter of turquoise to Europe according to wiki.

    I can’t believe Landon doesn’t know about collards on New Year’s Day. Even we Yankees in the Midwest know and follow this tradition.

    Christ on a cracker, Landon is actually dumber than I thought, and I already thought she was dumber than the dumbbell whose picture is shown after the word dumbbell in the dictionary. This fully explains why she had to share a “mock up” of the site (that her sister produced) at her big launch party. Remember the big, fancy New Yorker, the one she pitched her project to? Yeah, well that guy probably jokes about that bitch and her multiple levels of stupid at every Manhattan dinner party he attends. I wonder if Shep’s tech buddies hooked her up with that contact? I don’t see her locating and connecting with a venture capitalist on her own. Bitch doesn’t have the where with all to do much of anything except whine and sneer.

      Landon’s lack of savvy, basic understanding of web development, design or content planning, as well as experience , mean no one with any experience would ever give her a moment of their time on the phone, let alone in person. Heck even at that lightweight non-presentation introduction to her dinky website concept, it had been drafted last minute by her sister, and was so sub par as to been deeply embarrassing. And then she left because some one hurt her feelings ! If she was seriously chasing any investors or donors, she should have never left their side, let alone spend a minute talking to a friend or worrying about her feelings.

      As it is, the website appears to be nonexistent, we have heard neither a new name nor a location for a site, nor any indication it exists. How could she possibly not have checked the name out first for conflicts???

      I understand that KD’s absence led to the seeming- omnipresence of Landon during the first half of the season, but Landon needs to go- it is offensive to see this lost soul presented as she is- as if a cougar playing with a younger, brainless, guy, whose biggest issue in life is renting a tux for a night.

      Landon is a waste of tape and screen time , as any producer knows. I try to understand what Southern female preconception she fits in; the only one that fits is the Jane Eyre, unmarried untitled daughter of the family who needs a spouse, but she is neither willing to work hard on anything nor bright enough.

      Those giggles are enough to drive me off the show, honestly. Add the cute little tilt of the head with the big wide eyed look , simpering smile and a giggle and you have a fourteen year old who never grew up- and Landon. She needs to grow, wake up, and turn the brain her head has in hiding, on. And get off the show.

        There is a new name which I don’t care to mention. It is some Italian word or something, I forget. Which is not good. ROAM was at least someone people could spell and remember. And what does she need investors for? The travel. She is looking for people to fund her travels so that she can talk about them on a website.

        After I finish setting up my Go Fund Me for my Four Seasons Apartment in NYC, I will start another one for people to pay for me to travel the world. Jesus Christ on a Cracker the stupid is strong in this dolphin,

    Thanks for the recap. I couldn’t finish watching when KD said Whitney knew her when she was 21 and innocent.
    You know when she got arrested for dui, dated another politician 20 years older than her (not TR) danced on tables dressed as a Coked out Lindsay Lohan, slept with 3 different men what – a month?
    ‘Innocent’ Hell no.

Jennifer wasn’t down with that so they were just cordial acquaintances Then she was asked to be on the show. Her first scene was with Kathryn. *cough* Whitney *cough*

Maybe from shit we haven’t seen, or from his behavior, or waffling/lying about his career, whatever. She is bitter and not making any attempt to hide it. Not good.

      When your child overhears derogatory conversations about their mother, maybe coming from the nanny or Thomas, it’s a terrible thing. Up to the age of 5 is a child’s formidable years. I read where the little girl was told to call her mother Katherine not mommy. Watching the nannies body language in my opinion, around Katherine makes me believe Thomas has given his approval that the nanny can do what she wants. The woman needs to remember her place.

        I agree with you totally about that Nanny. She seems like a powerhungry and manipulative bully who has complete control over Thomas. And Thomas has shown that he seems easily influenced by mean, monster women. Her vibes are so tough and unkind, that I would never allow her to nanny my cat, let alone my children. I hope that Kathryn gains full custody.

          That nanny has been there since Kenzie was born – day one. The only stability those kids have. Now she is on the hit list too along with Thomas, the courts (who are supposed to babysit Kathryn according to you and give her help) and cast members. Where is Kathryn’s accountibility in all this? You put the E in enabler.

            I thought the nanny seemed quite capable, she’s been raising these kids since day one, more so than their own mother under the circumstances. I think the stability is good and Thomas relies on her massively.

            Spunky: So that nanny was there — so what? If she behaves as mean and high-handed towards those children when the cameras are off– as she does about Kathryn when the cameras are on — the longer she has been there, the worse for those children. And she speaks to Thomas as if she is (a castrating) Mrs. Ravenal. She clearly has ambitions for very long-term control. And I have always found that a nanny who is jealous of and does not like the mother — does not like the child of that mother. And Kensie looks just like Kathryn. No nanny should be given so much total power over the minds of these or any children – with Thomas’ 24/7 nanny “care”? and de facto abdication of them, while their mother is blocked from seeing them. Blocked, in large part, because of all that Thomas has done to Kathryn before this went to court, and then crushing her in the courts with his suitcase full of money. He might as well be a carpetbagger. He acts like a Yankee. There — I said it! And please stop throwing around words like “enabler” as if you know what they mean. I have known young people who suicided because stupid idiots told their parents to kick them out or they would be “enabling them”. They hung themselves. With the way you always attack Kathryn, you clearly have a “thing” against her. So I won’t “enable” you in this. You seem to put the E in envious.

              How does Thomas “act like a Yankee”? their mother is blocked by the courts because of her drug abuse and behavior. Thomas is not innocent, but he did not make her abuse drugs and fail drug tests, nor did . He hasn’t always been kind to Kathryn, but they’ve both been assholes to each other and honestly had no business having two kids in such a volatile “relationship”.

              Thomas hired the nanny to help him raise two babies, clearly he’s comfortable with the level of responsibility and authority she has. I agree, nobody should disparage the mother in front of the kids, but i haven’t seen the nanny do that. She’s doing her job and frankly the kids are fortunate to have her I think.

        Those poor children are probably a little confused by our standards but for them it is their “normal”. I have no clue about the nanny I just hope Thomas isn’t really sleeping with her daughter and she loves them and encourages a positive relationship with their mother.

        Unfortunately these two babies will grow up and learn about the drama surrounding their births and first few years of life and they will form their own opinions regarding their parents.

      Whitney’s behaviour this season reminds me of Luann when she was a FOH.

      I re-watched Seasons `1 and most of 2 over the weekend .It helped put both people and their stories in perspective. At first, Whitney was the landed gentry baron who flew around the world with his world of sophisticated women, on Mommy’s largess, it appeared. She wanted him to have a more elite career as a film producer , while he was content investing in Charleston restaurants that never transpired, with Shep.

      Then he became the devil who flagrantly led T Rav astray, whether it was against KD or into films for his election run that hurt, rather than helping, the campaign, supposedly. he was presented as arbitrary, opinionated, spoiled, and anti KD in every aspect of her life.

      Now he comes with Cameran to the lunch and acts more pleasantly towards KD than we have seen him.
      I think he and his Mom believed the show could and would revolve around them, their fabulous lineage and world class knowledge, money and access. Ahem. When Georgette Mosbacher is the best you’ve got, you’re not the center of anything, kids. Particularly while you are sporting doggie caftans you want to sell. Could not be much more lowly, in fact.

      As TT said, the show revolves around KD. While we understand that next week’s event does not go well, my sincere hope is that, she continues the improvement we’ve see to date in all her actions , beyond that. Her children need her- and she needs it too.

      It was very interesting. As you go to watch S 1 on demand, three episodes are missing- the first two, when she hooks up with Thomas, Whitney and Shep, and then episode 6, when they have the dinner confrontation at T Rav’s home, as he chastises them for not being more supportive of KD, among other things. If the above suggestions that she was with other older men for weeks at a time, slept with multiple others , etc., I’d love to know more about that too. KD is no saint. But she did appear to be sincere in her desire and actions, to try to be a partner and mother for his children . And to truly care for him And to desire the name and money that went with a marriage to him.

      We’ll see. TT’s insights have been essential to understand what is truly going on here- but I hope ,for the sake of the show but esp for the children ,that KD improves from here on in.

    Pat had no problem with KD in season 1 when she slept w/whitney – both she and whitney commented on her lineage (which is real unlike pat’s pretenses) she’s been obsessed w/KD ever since and never misses a chance to slam her, dis her, call her an addict as she throws back her martinis. she’s mad KD didn’t choose whitney!!

      Interesting- I remember some interview, maybe later in S2 than I am or in S3, when Pat is interviewed about the specifics of KD’s time with Whitney. She says she was sleeping in his bedroom(at that point they were keeping appearances up about Whitney) for several days, with her clothes at the base of the bed and all over this room. I don’t remember it as being particularly positive, but it was relatively neutral .

      I don’t think KD was a threat to them in any way, Whitney wasn’t interested in her , except as a rival for T Rav’s attention and friendship. Other than that, and the fact that KD doesn’t give her” her due” as Pat sees it, it is not obvious to me what the specific beef with KD is . Given her penchant for “breeding ” defined as lineage, to Pat, she also feels that , given KD’s heritage , her behavior should be more refined.

      Pat A holds everyone to her “standard” whatever that is ,but she has failed to live up to it herself,in her marriages. stealing and lying about her heritage, and , her every surface-focused choice intent on rising “status”.

    Re Arthur Ravenel saying he might not come to the birthday party if he had a tooth pulled…the man is 90 years old which might explain why he wouldn’t feel like running around town after having oral surgery. Georgette Mosbacher – she looked like a drag queen to me, not that there is anything wrong with looking like a drag queen (if you are one and not a rich old woman trying to look years younger than you really are.)

    Finally, someone gets it. Patricia hates KD because of her attacks on Whitney. The “fall on a knife” comment was prefaced by her screaming in his face that he was a nasty motherfucker and then taking a swing at him. Then factor in her serially sleeping with all three men, shacking up with Whitney and then going to a party escorted by him and leaving with Thomas, she’s pretty much appalled. It’s the old story, “Hurt me and I might forgive you, hurt my child and I’ll hate you forever.”

    It was interesting how KD thought Whitney owed her an apology at the lunch detente. She apparently hasn’t gotten to that step in the program where you apologize to people for whatever turmoil you’ve caused. On the contrary she thinks Whitney is the cause of her downfall, as she proclaimed in her talking head. Amazingly unselfaware still. Girl is clueless still, and for that reason I think this whole thing will go from bad to worse.

    Whitney created & produces the show, and I think he was pissed & mortified that he looked so bad last season, with Craig blurting out that Whitney was actually (initially) pretty smitten w/KD. So he’s fixing his image this season. His mommy does seem to have a vendetta against KD that is likely because she rejected her boy, even though she now realizes he dodged a bullet.

    The nanny does seem overbearing. Wonder if it’s true Thomas is sleeping with her daughter. Also, is this the nanny that gave testimony about KD? A nanny testified that the kids came back from time w/KD reeking of cigarette smoke, dirty, hair in knots. I was “team Katherine” until hearing this, which seems to be backed up by the fact that KD lost custody AND visitation for awhile. Also KD is delusional about how she views what went down in different situations, especially with Jennifer/Thomas. She’s pissed that Thomas handed her a hankie when she was crying? So now she’s twisted the timeline re Jennifer’s date w/Thomas?

    It’s hard not to like Craig. Even if he doesn’t end up practicing, congrats to him for graduating & passing the bar. Even if it’s a fake storyline, Naomi & Craig are not a match. He IS a flake, but he’ll find his way. He’s bright (though naïve) and talented. He’ll make someone a good husband & father one day.

    The Landon/Thomas storyline…. Sigh. They are both pretentious. There is no depth to their interest in each other. She’d make a nasty step-mom. For the kids’ & Katherine’s sake, here’s hoping that relationship never gets off the ground.

    Love Shep, but it’s past time for him to grow up. At least he seems like a genuinely nice person.

    Cameron is all about appearances. She’s brought a lot to the show, though. Her hair stylist friend, with the whistle in her voice, I can do without. It could just be a fake storyline, but if not, it is kind of interesting to see a woman toying with two “player” type men. Hope she didn’t really sleep with them both, tho, cuz that’s gross.

Since most people sleep together before marriage (if they marry) and sleep with more than one partner over time, why would it be gross for Chelsea to sleep with both Austen and Shep?

    I couldn’t agree more about Naomi. What a [email protected] You can see it in her face that she is full of righteous indignation and she genuinely thinks she is such a catch and he such a loser. Craig needs to find someone that’s gonna love and appreciate him for exactly who he is. And ride the ups and downs with him. Not to take all of his insecurities, point them out, magnify them, tell him she thinks all the worst things he thinks about himself too, and then wonder why he’s not really that motivated. If I could give that little girl any advice, it would be that you will regret always talking badly about the person that you’re supposed to love. Even if they are wrong. Be mature and keep it private. Have some respect for the man you say you love. Especially don’t badmouth him all the time to all the people that you guys are friends with. It may feel at the time like you’re in the right, but eventually, you realize that you can’t take it back and you have painted a picture of your relationship that is really ugly. And it’s your fault. Because that’s what everybody thinks. Even when things get better that’s what everybody will always thinking. it just makes you look like a horrible person. Because you do not stand by the person that you said you were committed to. If you hate him so much then move on and let him be happy without you. Don’t just stick around to make him miserable.
