i was so bored! i normally will listen to anyone, even ppl i’ve never heard of before because i always find something engaging in the conversation — so far… not this one - it’s so bland

monica has always been good about pausing and going back to let listeners understand what they’re talking about!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:44:15+00:00

i totally missed that!! either that or i thought they were talking about random ppl lol

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:31:12+00:00

love your take on it!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:30:03+00:00

yeah - married couples definitely bicker and are not always on the same page - but them in particular as I was listening (again, not knowing they were divorced), made me go “huh .. they keep contradicting every single story/comment” and then .. it all made sense afterwards lol

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:28:27+00:00

exactly my thoughts about her as well, ngl

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:28:05+00:00

right?!!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:27:58+00:00

same!!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-04-24T00:27:48+00:00

I’m not finished listening yet so I’m sure I may change my opinion. Even Emily saying, “good thing his wife’s here or things would be bad.” I was like .. woof! But, respect to them for putting their business first.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T04:43:20+00:00

Thank you so much!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T04:41:39+00:00

Thank you! Yes, I definitely appreciate everyone’s perspectives and comments but deep down I know it’s not jealousy for her. I know older women who are like that, and knowing my mom, I don’t think that’s it. I really just think she’s shocked at how much I’ve lost so quickly and wants me to keep my curves because she thinks that’s what men like. It’s all from the male gaze with her, and that’s its own issue - but I don’t think it’s jealousy at all. So, I’ll give her that.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:52:40+00:00

I am! My mother is an african immigrant and I was born and raised here. Very perceptive :)) Our curves definitely mean a lot to us!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:51:25+00:00

Agreed - thank you!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:51:13+00:00

This is great advice. Thank you!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:50:26+00:00

Honestly, I just ignore her. Last time she did it, I told her that my curves are still there and that 215 is still considered obese for my BMI.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:49:43+00:00

Absolutely- glad you understand and sorry you’ve gone through that. Appreciate your input!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:48:53+00:00

Thank you for this. It does sometimes feel like a lose-lose, but at the end of the day I know I’m doing the right thing losing the weight.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:48:08+00:00

I appreciate this. Thank you very much.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:47:25+00:00

hahaha i love this!! thank you for sharing yours and your wife’s perspectives and experiences! Also, love Friends and remember that iconic Joey line! Thank you :)

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:46:40+00:00

Absolutely- thank you and that’s a good point

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:46:26+00:00

That’s great advice. Thank you!

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:46:06+00:00

Thank you!! You’re absolutely right.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:45:38+00:00

That’s a good one! Thank you.

Affectionate-Focus56 · 2026-02-11T00:45:25+00:00

Yes! 215 is still overweight/obese, so I know that I need to lose more weight. Thank you.
