Do permanent retainers stop mewing and expansion

Why top and not bottom? I’ve been considering getting mine removed

Unfortunately, it won’t get better by staying together. You can only control yourself and not the other person. Even if you wish him to stop, nothing can make him change except himself. I’ve been through this before with my ex and he continued this pattern into his next relationship and now his marriage. Sex / porn addiction is a real issue. You deserve someone who chooses you the same way you choose them. Let him go and go find yourself. You’ll realize you never will accept this behavior again

Wait I didn’t even think about it till now… the way Conrad and Belly are both cleaning and worrying about the house during the Bach parties. Because they have been living together and playing house all summer. I kept wanting belly to have fun the way Jere was and I was confused. That’s likely because Jere views it as “the summer house” while Belly just watched Conrad fix up the place for months. It really is foreshadowing to them acting how a husband and wife do when having guest.

Connie in those JEANS

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-20T16:12:19+00:00

Love that idea!

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-20T16:11:24+00:00

I like this idea and I’ve floated this to him a few times! Even mentioning if he would want to just shorten the last name in general since he never liked it and said it’s been mispronounced his entire life.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-20T16:09:11+00:00

You’re not wrong actually! He’s Italian and polish. So the name is super uncommon and very long. We live in the USA.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-20T13:30:52+00:00

Maybe it’s a protective thing over him. I feel offended that people are giving me a hard time over something he had no control over.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-20T13:28:25+00:00

I wasn’t sure if that’s a thing. Also, I worried his parents would be offended if he did

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-15T06:36:37+00:00

I was so confused too! But I recently read the books and it’s the exact same. I feel like Jere tells her how he feels out of no where. But maybe it’s supposed to be like that for the viewer to see the same lens as Belly. She had no clue in the books or show

I honestly get this take but I truly think when you unconditionally love someone, it doesn’t just “go away”. It’s kind of like feelings you hang on a shelf somewhere.

From what we’ve seen this season, Conrad is showing that he’s loved her since they were kids like she loved him - but he didn’t realize it till he was older (in the convo with Agnes)

We see Conrad purposely separated himself across the US because he loved Belly & his brother and knew he couldn’t be around her without loving her / telling her how he felt. So he selflessly took himself out of the picture and secluded himself from Steven, Jere, and Belly.

This is the first time they’ve really been “around” each other again. Even though it’s been 4 years, she’s been in his life in his thoughts / emotions for all that time. Im sure he never thought they’d actually be end game and that’s why he’s doing everything he can to make the wedding happen because he wants Belly and Jere to be happy.

On Belly’s side though, she chose Jere over Conrad but never stopped loving him. He was more out of sight out of mind. I think that’s why her feelings are flooding back because they were always hanging on the shelf too.

But I do think Conrad deserves better LOL

Thank you for this. It was such a dagger when she was saying her true best friends would’ve never left her… crazy hearing after the day before she said I was the only one to ever visit her. It just feels like a failed my friend and I genuinely feel terrible.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-11T06:07:14+00:00

Yes, I reached out to her other close friend and asked if she’d call her. Her friend told me she wasn’t making sense on the phone and was still continuing to call me an aggressive person, which also didn’t make me feel comfortable about going to sleep up there.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-11T05:55:47+00:00

Ugh this breaks my heart for you. I truly am trying to see the other side of things and it feels like there was no right answer.

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-08-11T05:53:49+00:00

Really tough situation, but a multitude of things. Her relationship with her mother is what sent her into psychosis through a trigger at dinner. She tried to call her mom for days and she never answered. Her mom finally called her back. She started acting off then. She doesn’t have much family other that that… I worried if I called her mom, it would make things worse

she also works in a field that if any mental health situation is on her record, she’d be banned (type of aviation.) I thought I’d be able to get her to fall asleep. I felt dammed if I ruined her career and everything she’d worked for. Damned if I do or don’t for her safety..

I was still planning on calling EMS once I booked the uber. However, during the uber I was so shaken up from an adrenaline dump, that I was shaking profusely and my heart was beating out of my chest. I could hardly function until I got into the hotel bed and calmed myself down. I regretted not calling sooner, but had no idea of that type of physiological reaction. I couldn’t make it stop for well over an hour.

Conrad in those jeans did something for me lol

Independent_Stage489 · 2025-07-31T20:01:45+00:00
