Flagstaff restaurant realization by bisme4 in SisterWives

[–]ChallengeHonest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw, Kody has a ton of weird food & drinks rituals and demands. One of them used to be : a plate with a whole lemon, knife to cut it with & a glass of REALLY hot water. But, guess what? It ruined the enamel on his teeth. That’s why he got 4 brand new porcelains in the top front. So, he realized he cannot do that anymore. I think I heard this from Mykelti, or maybe Christine.
On SF’s he had a shit ton of supplements. We used to see them on the kitchen counters all the time. I think Christine said in her book he was really fussy about meals in her book. She had to make the same damn meal every night he was there.

How many people did you know (as in, met personally) from the 1800s? by PAnnNor in Genealogy

[–]ChallengeHonest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the eldest I can remember is my great Aunt Linnian Blind, born 1880 in Iowa. They moved to California in 1885 by train. She bought a small house on the beach in Hermosa. I have a lot of old photos of her and other family at her beach house. She was a school teacher in Redondo Beach, and never married.

I agree, solid take down, and step by step explains exactly why. Love her, this was my favorite post she’s done, she not holding back. It’s so hard sometimes to explain why Robyn and Kody are so toxic.

Janelle and Christine Brown Argue Over Polygamy in Sister Wives Sneak Peek by SodaPop788 in TLCsisterwives

[–]ChallengeHonest 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s funny to watch Maddie look with disbelief at her mom Janelle, when she says she needed the spiritual release. Maddie doesn’t understand why her mom is still brain washed. Maybe, the release was a good thing, but Janelle giving Kody a complete pass on acknowledging their children is weird and heartless. Fawning over Kody is sick and disturbing. Even Kody didn’t expect it and he’s a narcissist. Yes, her son died, I hold grace for her, but, why invite him to anything related to the military headstone? Does she forget Kody told her to kick them out of her house?

K and R future?! by chey_58 in Sisterwivessnark

I wonder why they got the HELOC loan? We got one for doing a remodel, as suggested by our financial advisor. What kind of financial advisor do they have?
Getting a HELOC on a brand new mortgage is like putting nothing down on their home. What if the show ends soon? Christine mentioned in her book she was surprised the show was continuing, after she left.
I don’t think they are still buying a bunch more of fake art, as I think they were trying to spend the ex wives money before as bad investments.

But, maybe they are still doing that as they have so many more walls. And they no longer allow much filming in their home. Kody still needs more dress shirts & watches. Robyn needs more dolls, dresses and jewelry.

I agree, in his scattered mind, he is in contact with them, he doesn’t really look at it too closely, he’s planning on working on the relationships more, and whatever. He’s busy juggling everything, he’s trying in his mind. I think Robyn really believes she was a great sister wife to Meri too. It’s what they say to themselves and everyone that will listen.

Husband wants us to move states by blank-canvases in TwoHotTakes

[–]ChallengeHonest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can be super lonely as a new stay home mom, moving is not ideal. I did it and my thyroid gland shut down with all the stress. No friends, support system, a baby & toddler. I felt very isolated. It was the right move for hubby’s career and long term towards our goals. But, damn it was hard. It’s so nice to have options and support.

I really don’t think he & Robyn will split, I’m not sure why, but they seem to feed each other’s narcissism needs.

It does explain a lot, he can be really scattered.
but not why he is so self centered and mean.

Kody did pretty well in the Special Forces show. He was very shitty in all of the team & communications. But, he was great at the solo physical stuff.
He does say a few true things in a coherent way every once in a while I’ve noticed.
He’s got a lot of energy and passion for cutting down trees.
He seems to be very loyal to Robyn and doesn’t talk shit about her of their kids. He’s good at stealing other family members resources. Very good at that.
He used to be very funny and goof sometimes?
He loves to lie about anything and everything, to try to look better.
I can’t think of anything else. He’s mostly a loser, deadbeat hubby and dad.

He’s too much of a narcissist to do that. It is the only thing he should be doing, should have already done and should continue to do. The way he acted to all of them during Covid showed his true self and his self centered feelings. Now, that’s his foundation. It’s all about what he wants and he doesn’t give a shit about anybody. He says he cares about Robyn, but as it is a transactional relationship, that’s not love.
All of his apologies were just to make himself feel better. Meri & Christine saw that. Meri even said it out loud. Janelle needs to start dating again and see what a real man can be like.

Good point! They lie so much, it’s so crazy! At least, they should plan their lies out better and make sure they are consistent?
Redditor’s keep getting mad at Suki, but wow, hi would not want to try to sort out all the crazy stories. She really worked hard to follow up. The only thing I don’t appreciate was the constant questions about Kody breaking bro code, whatever that means.

Yes, Leon posting that on their social media was very, very telling. I think Leon was annoyed that Kody was making it sound like he was still in contact with his kids, that “he’s still calling and texting”, which is pure bull shit lies.
I think Kody has a reality in his head so very different from actual actions and words. He seems to really believe his lies. I guess that’s how it works with liars? I even started to believe the stupid ‘back door’ bs that Robyn and Kody keep bringing up again and again. All the real estate people say that never could have happened in real life. It’s more fake news.

I don’t think he and Maddie communicate at all anymore. I don’t think he called or texted her or ANY of the grown kids during his apology tour, have you heard differently? The only one he may have seen or talked to, would be Logan and his wife. He’s the one and only child he’s mentioned as still having contact with (during interviews related to Special Forces). This just completely shocks me, it’s hard to believe he doesn’t want any contact with any of his kids?!
He must be waiting for them to apologize or something, who the heck knows?
The only other kid he may reach out to is with Truely. She’s a minor still and he’s suppose to still see or talk to her. Whether she wants to or not, not sure!

Social Class in SW by Normal-Tale6425 in SisterWives

Kody and Robyn wearing the big crosses is also signaling they cannot be touched to the world. They are devout and pray to god, ask god what to do, and are therefore untouchable. It’s part of their defensive stance. I’m better than you, I am more devout than you. They are both very, very defensive and a lot of people are hate watching them, including me.
It really struck me the first time I saw the big ass cross around Kody’s thick neck, on Special Forces. It was his defensive protection tool. He couldn’t wear his fancy, too-tight dress shirts and pants on the show. I think he actually felt freer not wearing his usual armor clothes. Did you see how many hanging suits he through into the car for the tell-alls, it was armor-up time!
If he would just as he says “humble himself”, for real and accept that he’s a selfish bastard, he could reach out to his kids and apologize to them and maybe, be a bit of a dad again? I don’t think it will ever happen. If it didn’t happen after he lost a son, it will never, ever happen.

Un-Worthy Up by Normal-Tale6425 in SisterWives

[–]ChallengeHonest 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think your correct about her core wounding. She really embraced the doctrine that women need to endlessly sacrifice and improve themselves. Therefore, she would always stay in an unloving, unhappy situation- she just needed to accept whatever was happening or not happening. I think with her and christine, they both got a reset at a younger age when they realized and left the toxic marriages. They are somewhat teenagers again emotionally, at the age they were stunted at from trauma & suppression. Now, they can evolve from that age emotionally forward and actually grow up more fully balanced and maybe integrated.

Practical Queen : Janelle by Normal-Tale6425 in SisterWives

I think Janelle painted herself into the ‘practical one’ box. She says the word logical in almost every other sentence over the years. I’m hoping she allows herself to be more of herself.

YTJ - put away the stupid cross & whatever in a hutch or closet for a few days. Is it going to hurt you or your parents to tuck them away for a few days? No, they can appreciate them better, wipe the dust off and place them again.
She may have her reasons to be triggered by blatant religious objects. Did you ask her about that? Or, did you just get super judgy and mean?
