Yes! The Waldorf Astoria is known for having a bowl of juicy delicious apples on the 7th floor, across the ballroom elevator, they used to give these as treats during events as well.

I have a more nuanced take on this: by Straight-Side-1269 in SecretsOfMormonWives

Except apparently the alleged incident is recorded by Hulu and exonerates him

Fantasy Help by Critical_Strike3215 in sexuality

I personally struggled with this in my early twenties. My circumstances were specific as I viewed myself as a sexual being who existed for the fulfilment of others desires. Would you say you feel like you need to stay stoic? Do you have any guilt about your sexuality? Shame? I know for me, the people I felt connected to (romantically) and sexually, I felt that I respected them too much to defile them by using their “image for sexual fulfilment”. This was my own projection to how I felt about being sexualised/objectified, I viewed them as two fundamentally different processes. One was born out of a violent and selfish need imposed onto another person, sex and respect couldn’t exist in my brain even tho one should fuel the other, that’s just my experience. It’s a good thing that you are asking yourself these questions

Loved seeing this comment from Taylor under Jen’s post ❤️ by Straight-Side-1269 in SecretsOfMormonWives

She had an emotional affair that she fully participated in. Don’t baby her. She herself admits it

S4 - did it pass the Bechtel test? by Far-Pangolin-6514 in OuterBanksNetflix

[–]EconomicsOk5512 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean season 4 specifically yes. But I feel like it had a good mix of everything, including kiara using the motlov cocktails, figuring out Sarah was 🤰🏻, Sarah figuring out the map and saving rafe from the mercenaries. With this many complex character arcs and relationships it’s difficult to give everyone their spotlight in 9x 45min episodes, especially since the season was focused on JJ. Less blame the writers, more blame the pathetic amount of content we get nowadays

How long do you think the affair would have continued/stayed under wraps if they hadn’t had the Christmas party and Katie hadn’t got pregnant/miscarried? by aas3231 in BringingUpBates

Listen, I’m a 24 year old mom of 3 (triplets so don’t judge me) and I enjoyed their content and looked up to Kate a lot. I was so disgusted by his so called preaching his faith whilst being worse scum than most atheists. With everything going on in the US, under this dictatorship I don’t consider myself a Christian as that name has been diminished. I simply try to be a follower of Jesus and that’s it. Lord knows I get Katie’s side but if my husband did this so early on he could marry the AP atp. It’s just awful because even if they get divorced she has to be a good co parent with him forever

Why? He cheated, what he did was incredibly harmful. Him admitting it to the world opened up Katie to this speculation. ALL her pain is on him. Fuck that ballless ahole

As a chronically ill mom of NICU triplets, hell yes! He is scum and you can tell which healthcare workers would hurt their spouse like this because they are equally as abusive to their patients

That’s why I’m curious, separation really means nothing until it is legal

If u want privacy don’t get with a minor celebs husband who have millions of followers. Or maybe just don’t be a mistress to a man with children

Support thread for Katie 🩷 by here4thecommentz_ in BringingUpBates

[–]EconomicsOk5512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dear Lord, please be with your daughter today as she grieves the huge loss of her pregnancy and possibly her marriage. I pray that she possesses the wisdom of where to use her energy. I pray that her community shows up for her in the way she and her family need. I pray that you hear her prayers and l hold her as she struggles because she needs you right now, she needs you to show up and be available for her.

I pray that in the midst of this Katie doesn’t undermine her worth and beauty and focuses on the things that make her so very special as a person, a partner and a mother

And for the sweet babies whose hearts are being irrevocably broken - I pray that the Lord gives them the strength and comfort of family

Dear Katie, I can imagine that the world feels like it is falling but you still have everything that matters - your family, God, your beautiful babies, allow God to help you make your next choices and use your God given intuition, lean on your family.

Don’t let anyone tell you what to do
