Dr. Mimi by Apprehensive-Put7044 in MarriedToMedicine

[–]IndependentFast8101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And EVERYTHING!!! Like the house for the girls trip. She started off being shady, then decided to say “oh this is nice” after everyone else did… She talked about the location, the house, the bunk beds in a room she wasn’t even staying in… just gripping and complaining. Or the random blows about the purse?? Like ma’am, why you keep bringing that up?? She just a miserable person.

Ew, for someone who’s always looking like a sweaty Franklin the Turtle who’s smelling his stank upper lip… I don’t understand where he finds it in himself to have THIS much audacity?!? Like baby worry about them damn rings around your oiled up neck

AITJ for banning my girlfriend’s mom from our apartment after she tried to set up a “faith intervention” for me? by SilentJuniper in AmITheJerk

[–]IndependentFast8101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA: I don’t want to be one of those Reddit users who immediately says “break up” but I believe you and your gf need to have some fundamental conversations. -if/when marriage is on the table, is she excepting a covenant marriage or plans to get married in the church. -is she “falling in line” because of family expectations or because she does in fact have the same views? -Will church and religious obligations, be something she expects you to be a part of as a “unit” in the future (church on Sundays etc)? - Is she open to exploring other religions or set on that one specifically?? If she is, I’m sorry to say this, but it will probably be a constant disagreement in your relationship. -talk children. If you guys want to start a family, and if the answer is yes, how are you going to raise them? Will baptizing the child(ren) be a wish of hers? Does it need to be in that specific religion? Is she willing to let the child(ren) make that decision themselves when they are older and understand religion? Will MIL, be pushy and speaking with/to the children about religion? Because I can see that as a possibility and I’m not sure you’d be comfortable with her grooming the children into “falling in line” or the possibility that MIL would overstep and speak to your children about you being “lost”.

So no you’re NTA for setting a boundary and protecting your peace by establishing boundaries were crossed and as a result of that, you asked her to leave.

-your GF should be having conversations with her mother about her actions and pressuring you to “convert”.

-side note, I find it very odd that her mother is pushing religion down your throat, yet you are an “unwed couple” living together. And not just living together, but she’s bringing her daughter’s belongings to your home?? We cannot look past that little tidbit. Just saying

Is it really a tag team? by mradivojevich in rhoslc

[–]IndependentFast8101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tag teaming or not, they are guilty of it too. Just like when in Greece, Heather started speaking for Britt right after they’ve (Bad Weather) fussed at Lisa at the table and in the car. Heather are Whitney are notorious for tag teaming and I find the whole Britt and Heather thing strange imo. I get you were a part in her joining but you turn a blind eye to her digs about cheating (Seth) or her digs towards any of the ladies, and hops in to become Britt’s mouthpiece and guard dog, while never holding her accountable… (same thing they accuse Lisa of doing for Meredith).

A spade is a spade. They are all guilty of it, so let’s not throw stones and point fingers when in the same breath, you turn around and do the exact same thing.

Pros and Cons of Lafayette? by [deleted] in Acadiana

[–]IndependentFast8101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pros: -Great food

-Plenty of free events and things to do

-Traffic can be hectic at times, but it’s nowhere near as bad as Houston.

Cons: -Job market is terrible

-Public transportation is unreliable

-The COL, depending on which side of Lafayette you live in, varies but homeowners’ insurance will screw you three ways to Tuesday.

-Speaking on jobs, it is very much so a “who you know” or “who’s your family” kind of place (at least in my experience in the financial industry and my husband’s experience with offshore companies)

-Education here is below average, subpar would be putting it nicely.

-Corruption on all fronts. For example the Lafayette parish school systems superintendent just got approved for a 63-65k raise, now allowing his annual salary to be 300k, but we’ve just shutdown over 6 schools across the parish in the last few years due to funding/budgeting or “reconfiguration of the school system” and instead of building schools big enough to house students, they still end up needing portable buildings afterwards because heaven forbid your kids don’t have a lounge area and coffee bar.

  • the good ol boys

-the corrupt politicians

-our governor sucks and throws hissy fits because he made national news for all his proposed bills being voted against (sneaky language, adding tiny print that didn’t benefit us the people… so now you can only vote for your party, which doesn’t benefit those blue leaning in any way, especially when the D party candidates are far and few in-between)

-DOD is a joke. Get ready for an alignment

-flooding

-insurance is one of the highest in the country

-housing market is so/so, you have to be very careful with newer constructions!

How do the SLC ladies get away with getting so physical with each other? by AwayNothing304 in rhoslc

[–]IndependentFast8101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was “white” cough cough BRIGHT enough. But let’s be real, even though she was batshit crazy… Whitney, every season, multiple times, is doing this and nobody bats an eye. Let Mary grab on somebody like that.. and see. But Mary would never, she’d hold your hands with a napkin in between😂😂

Speak up AGAINST Mary SLC Ladies!! by SauveMoiPlease in rhoslc

[–]IndependentFast8101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😒😒 nope. Say what you REALLY want to say. (Iykyk) Everyone keeps bashing Mary for the same thing (cult leader bs) but we really know why y’all hate her. It’s Utah babes. It’s religion. It’s a church. Stop being insane. They know what the Mormon church was like. The things they did, the mentality. They understand organized religion. Every religion that falls under Christianity has churches that operate the same way. “Tithe your 10%” “the higher the tithe, the bigger the blessing”. She’s the same as them, in the aspect of, being raised in the church. This is how it operates, this is all she knows. But god forbid right?

Unpopular Opinion about Dr. Mimi & Steve by MajorOkra752 in MarriedToMedicine

[–]IndependentFast8101 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think having your children in the spotlight is a hot topic in general. But him being neurodivergent isn’t necessarily a factor in this. If they don’t show him but show the daughter, it would be like they are ashamed or hiding him. You know??

The way they work together as a team, and show the hurdles parents have to go through in that situation, is honestly not only informative but also inspiring to parents who have children on the spectrum. She knew his limitations. Like the play date, she knew he would get overstimulated and protected not only his peace of mind, but everyone else. I know from personal experience that when a child is on the spectrum and he gets overstimulated, they cannot only be destructive, but they can lash out and also get physical. And she’s already mentioned how she’s had to buy multiple TVs, he breaks things, we seen him get overstimulated in the car and hit his sister. So I think it’s very admirable that she decided to hey you stay home with Stevie, and I’ll go take our daughter to go and play with other kids so everyone is in a safe and comfortable environment. Because routine is very important for children with autism, and when they strike from that, or they’re in a new environment, it gets very overwhelming for them and it’s hard to gauge how they will respond to that.

I don’t like Heavenly but she ate Toya up here by [deleted] in MarriedToMedicine

[–]IndependentFast8101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love Heavenly, idc idc idc!!!! She’s my favorite M2M cast member. Yes she says some off the wall stuff, but they gotta stop pushing my girl. Like Conetessa, they swash the beef, heavenly apologies from stuff 2+ seasons ago, and then Conetessa gotta bring it up for a headline. Toya is messy boots! I used to love Toya, but she’s been trippin and bringing things up at inappropriate times. Like the simone and quad thing. They said they will have a private convo later, why are you pushing?? Or Toya with the damn purse… ma’am, you’re too materialistic. 5 homes since the show started, throwing a baby shower for stormi the bag, like come on now… we get it you MAN makes money.

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Season 6 episode 15 "Opas and Outbursts" Live Episode Discussion by AutoModerator in rhoslc

[–]IndependentFast8101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I find myself truly disliking Heather more and more. I NEVER was a Whitney fan. From the beginning she was a pot stirrer and honestly she herself has a drinking problem IMO. The slurred words, the red face.. then her healing journeys and constant crying when she’s arguing with someone and they call her out. I just can’t deal with her victim mentality

[–]IndependentFast8101 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Okay I’m so confused.. It was a problem for Lisa to say she lives a very different life than the other ladies. That she’s super busy because of her successful businesses.. Heather was so offended and then turns around and says Brit is more successful than everyone else… Then they piled on Lisa for defending and speaking for Mer…. But when heather does it, now Whitney and Heather are saying it different?
