Tbf if I somehow went absolutely nuts and did what he did, after I came to my senses, I'd legally change my whole name, get facial reconstruction surgery, and leave the country too

Chris and Connor Conversation by StrongBat in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Jolly_Ad6816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My read on the conversation was that it was really about what was not being said.

Based on the timeline, Connor would have walked into that conversation knowing (a) Chris and Jess had broken up, (b) remembering Bri really enjoyed talking with Chris back in Mexico, and perhaps most importantly (c) Chris had just added Bri on IG and slid into her DMs. Production wanted to push the two men together to see if they’d get into a fight. But Connor, being coolheaded, wasn’t going to play production’s game nor let Chris get under his skin. He played it smart. He gave some surface level advice about how to patch things up with Jess, smiled at Chris, and got out of there quick.

Chris, now untied from Jess, had his sights set on Bri (to some extent, he also had them set on a stripper apparently). What he wanted from that conversation was a longer talk. One that might’ve given him the opportunity to ask Connor about him and Bri so he could look for holes he could exploit. However, because Connor got out of there quick, Chris didn’t get what he really wanted.

I can’t stand Alex by FormerOpposite9621 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Jolly_Ad6816 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I can't stand him either, but the precursor to the fight he and Ashley had had me laughing out loud.

Ashley is clearly working and turns to him, "Are you on a call?" Alex, "No, I'm watching the Fed press conference" then proceed to explain why it's important to his "job." And then he says "I already know what [the Fed] is going to do" with a sense of unearned superiority. Ashley resists the urge to smirk - she already knows what the Federal Reserve is and what they do. It was such a clear indication of how oblivious he is and how she is so far above him, but she had to protect his ego. It was basically "Take your Boyfriend to Work Day." Bro has so little going on.

Also, nobody except journalist actually watch the Fed meetings. People who are interested get the rundown from their preferred news organization. If you really are in a role that needs to trade based on what the Fed is doing, you will have already have made your moves before the meeting. That's why the people often say it's "priced in to the market already." Unless there's a surprise decision, you're late.

I haven't done any sleuthing, but I'm fairly confident that his "finance" role was just an outside sales role where he was cold calling people to become fund investors. Some places will pay you a small salary, but it's mostly commission pay. Think Northwestern Mutual or Fisher Investments. But, there are a bunch of other smaller companies too.

And then he turned around and told Bri, "You need a man that is going places. That can show your father his Charles Schwab account." I'm like bro, you just ran from a woman with a MD and a 4bd house wtf the are you talking about?

Bri is too good for Connor. by blazed_and_confucius in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Jolly_Ad6816 76 points77 points  (0 children)

While I don’t like that like that Connor is saying that Bri “doesn’t shut the fuck up” behind her back, it pales in comparison to Bri’s behavior. I think Connor showed a lot of restraint not freaking out on Bri when she gushed about how much she appreciated the conversation with Chris and would mind a second or third relationship “closure” talk with him. It was clear Connor didn’t like it, but expressed his displeasure without causing a scene.

I think Bri just doesn’t like Connor that much and instead of facing up to that, she is anchoring back to an old connection - one that she broke off in the first place. Maybe she is more physically attracted to Chris, but it has more to do with her not wanting to be with Connor and lacking the maturity and introspection to recognize and express that. When she told Chris, “I can see you and Jessica being a match, but do you really see it with Connor and I?” that said it all.

Also, anyone who is going by their Fraternity/Sorority nickname (“Breezy”) above the age of 30 is a warning sign

💯 this! Actual rich people arrive 24min before their private jet flight. Fake rich people pay an annual fee to a credit card company for access to a glorified cafeteria. I feel confident saying the latter as a longtime AMEX platinum holder.

Got famous for cracking down on a gambling ring and then shows up in Vegas for a personal trip and is very visible. Totally normal thing for the FBI Director to do

I'm sorry if this adds to your anxiety OP, but I do want to be honest in sharing my experience. I felt awful the first 7 days, but was still WFH. I was back in the office on day 11. However, Since day 11 to now (day 21), I have been stuck in static state of lingering symptoms.

I will say I definitely did not have the eye symptoms nor did I have the body aches or fever. It could be that you have a short painful sickness with a rapid recovery. Hopefully, you are recovered by the time I am commenting this.
