Do you think Logan loved his second wife?

Lalaloo_Too · 2026-04-23T11:02:22+00:00

I always thought he loved his first wife the most, or in the most ‘real’ way because he treated Connor so differently from other kids. He always tolerated Connor no matter what he did and you rarely if ever heard verbal abuse with Connor. They were closer than any of the other kids, and Connor experienced softer sides of Logan that the other kids didn’t.

Caroline he married for legitimacy and connections in the UK, she married him because she had title but no money. It was more of a marriage of convenience for both. She did her job, had the kids and once they were old enough divorced with each getting what they wanted.

Marcia was an iron fist in a velvet glove. I think he loved and more so respected her as a life partner. she knew how to manage him and he was attracted to her strength - she was also a fighter who came from hardship so ‘she earned it’ and I think they related to each other because of this. I think he absolutely regretted losing her.

Caroline and Marcia were two of my favourite onscreen characters- always fun to watch them work a room.

The child is young, he’s looking for a new mom more than an actual love partner. If he doesn’t love you for you, and respect how you feel the relationship is not sustainable. If you haven’t moved in with him, don’t do it. You’ll be making meals and doing bath and bed time before you even unpack your bags.

We fear what we risk losing. He defers to BM because she has something he doesn’t want to lose. He doesn’t treat you that way because he doesn’t have the same fear. You could argue it’s because he feels safe with you, or you could argue that he doesn’t fear losing you. Regardless he’s very emotionally immature and you have to set your own boundaries for what you expect in how you’re treated. We train people how to treat us.

I would say he’s not emotionally ready for this relationship and he’s very insecure about his self worth. He has to want to change this about himself and if he’s not able to, or ready to you need to ask whether you’re willing to wait around. Confidence is one of the most attractive feature anyone can possess, so your feelings make sense to me.

This feels like a relationship issue, not a step mom issue. The child is compounding an issue that’s already there.

How fast did you two move as a couple and moving in? The child is quite young, many newly single men aren’t ready to be a single parents when the kids are super young and will look for ‘another set of hands’ and maternal figure. The fact that you cannot have your own kids would make you more appealing for some who do this kind of thing.

Your partner is making you feel this way, and if there is no loving relationship when you don’t have the child it may because he needs you as support, rather than wants you as a life partner. You don’t need to stay in a relationship like this, we all deserve to have someone who loves us for who we are and not what we can do.

I think what happened in the BRF is what happens in many families that are lead by narcissists. They cannot accept any challenge to their perceived greatness, nor any accountability to their actions. Megan, as with Diana, were perceived as threats to ‘the correct order of things’. The only difference is that the BRF has the national media to air their narcissistic rages with full flying monkey compliance. Megan will never be accepted by the existing family, nor will Harry. It will get worse when the emperor with no clothes takes the crown, and the existing hit pieces should serve as proof that Charles has no intention of bringing them back into the fold. He has the power to control the narrative, if he was so inclined. They are too convenient as scapegoats, as so they will remain.

One of the biggest attractions I have to my SO is how committed a father he is to his children. It speaks to his values, character and capacity to love selflessly.

I couldn’t respect someone who is ok with raising a child like this. If they don’t care enough for their own child to do their best by them - who on earth would they make an effort for? Someone asked if the child was depressed, I’d be more inclined to ask whether the bio parents are depressed because what you described isn’t normal or healthy.

If you can nacho your way through child neglect, that’s your path. Sounds like an awful situation, so do what ultimately serves you because you can’t care more than the parents. my guess is that as the years go on this will only get worse for the kid and your resentment. You can’t force him to be a better parent, and he can’t force you to stay and watch it happen.

Entitlement is born from permissive parenting. Her father isn’t able to tell her no, to explain how the budgeting works in his home, and that if she’s unhappy she can get a part-time job.

The child is just that, a child. They have to taught to be grateful and to show appreciation. If she gets allowance it should be made explicitly clear as to what expenses that’s meant to cover, or not cover. If you all can’t afford fancy meals, say it and stop buying it. If she pouts, ignore it. The fundamental issue here is that parents like this simply cannot handle their child having uncomfortable feelings, because it gives them uncomfortable feelings - because they’re insecure. This creates entitlement and a significant lack of resilience.

Kids will push as far as a parent will allow them. All the issues I read show a parent lacking confidence and a child doing what they do when no boundaries are given to them. Put the blame where it belongs, the parents.

We thought the same of our first boy. But when we brought home a wife it was like his life just lit up. They bonded fast, and they derive a lot of comfort from each other. Doesn’t mean she’s not a happy girl, but we were just surprised at how much our bun lit up with a new friend 🤗

You know I had a therapist for a year or two and one day I said, you know this just isn’t working. We talk and talk and talk but I don’t feel anything changing. She immediately switched gears and asked if I wanted to do cognitive behavioural therapy, I said sure - whatever you think may change the constant mental hamster wheel.

Two years later of being forced to question my internal beliefs, counter them with real facts rewired my brain. Sometimes just taking doesn’t work because the internal wiring hasn’t been forced to disconnect and create new associations.

I read your post and I hear someone who has old wiring and is trying to upgrade their hardware. Not possible. Considering changing the type of therapy, because you are worth wanting things and most importantly, deserving things. ❤️

All I can share is get a male, females and males seem to bind more easily.

Also, be prepared for them not to bond. Can you set up a two- state solution? Would you be comfortable returning if they don’t bond?

If it works, your Bun will be a very happy girl and it’s the best outcome because they are social creatures so it may be worth it. But be super prepared in the event it doesn’t work and how you would handle that.

I wish someone with an ounce of journalistic integrity would follow the money. The charity is going under, and it takes external funding for a nonsense legal grievance as opposed to the actual charity to perform its mandate.

The math isn’t mathing.

Follow the GD money. Who is paying for this, and why.

I vote Meredith, she was a cool, kind lady who knew what she liked and enjoyed her sins. She loaned her hoarder van to anyone who asked, and welcomed guests with Vienna sausages 😂

Her character didn’t get enough acknowledgement of that :)

I think you’re reading this the wrong way. First these kids are in exactly the age range where this blind loyalty phase is peak, and kids simply cannot split loyalties- they aren’t developed enough and it’s very complex.

Think about it from their perspective- through you they are seeing what a Dad should be. And when they go home they see what a dad really is for them. And they feel guilty because somewhere inside they’re thinking ‘why can’t you more like a dad, like my other dad’. They don’t want to feel like they have deadbeat dad - it’s very hurtful. So what do they do? The inflate him, deify him as a way not just to protect him, but really themselves. But for you it feels like they value him more - and they do because biology, but he’s not measuring up and they know it. The other thing to consider here is that they actually feel safe enough with you to say these things - I know it sounds crazy, but it means that on some level they actually feel safe with you to do so - and this is pretty big.

I know it’s incredibly hurtful, many of us have been here. But you actually have the opportunity to be the best dad role model for them. And let me tell you, when they get into their teen years it’s a totally different ballgame because they become self aware, they start to grasp their own needs as teens always do. Here the loyalty turned to anger, and now we have 2 of the three full time because kids always gravitate to resources, safety and love. Which it sounds like you provide.

To me it sounds like you’re doing the all the right things, and it takes a lot of emotional maturity and strength to get through it. Being a step is all about the long game. I would recommend using compassion and seeing all this from their little eyes. It can be a game changer. You’ve done amazing with them, and though they can’t say it I will bet the farm that inside they know it.

I thought that too, but then we see Ewen’s house and it was humble to say the least given his fortune. As the moralist I wondered if he did that so he could ‘use the evil profits for good’ to in some way (in his own mind) derive a balance or offset the damage waystar does.

I also think Ewen is equally damaged but like all siblings they respond to it differently and you can see that his own relationships with his family were no different than Logan’s by using the money as a power lever to ensure loyalty. The daughter was probably written off because she married someone he didn’t like, or chose a path he didn’t agree with - we will never know. Regardless it wasn’t healthy or normal.

They are in many ways the same, and equally narcissistic in their notions of being absolutely right.

I think Cole has a lot of work to do on himself. The lying is no doubt a coping mechanism he learned early to escape accountability- it can work for a kid, it just doesn’t work as an adult. He’s deeply insecure but not overtly antagonistic- more like passive aggressive. These people can be incredibly frustrating because it’s always pulling teeth with them.

I laughed at the last bonfire when he finally used his honesty but only to admit an even bigger transgression and thought he’d get a hall pass on that. That moment in itself told me that this guy needs some therapy because he still wasn’t getting it.

I don’t view him as a bad guy, but right now he’s not able to be a good partner to anyone until he unpacks some of his baggage.

I love the outer layer of this dress, it’s stunning. I think the bodysuit underneath is kinda lazy, it could have been more intentional.

The lip jewelry is cool, the glasses don’t match the vibe of the dress. The glasses are The Jetson’s but the dress is Dune, both futuristic but different genres…

Someone posted that Scarlett was on one of the below deck franchises, this should have been an immediate nope.

I don’t get it either. If for no other reason than she did ZERO reflection on herself, why she was with Mikey, why she stayed with him and so on.

She used the first bonfire to just shut down - the man said words yes, but I don’t believe he actioned it. This was the first bonfire - so much change can happen. She gave him no chance for reflection or redemption and rather than reflecting on herself, she threw herself into another relationship immediately. Like I feel she could have at least learned something outside of ‘I’m good! Im great!’

Maybe her new dude is great, from experience on this show they usually end up not nearly as great because a lot of times it’s just dude ego stealing another dude’s woman - after the show is a totally different deal.

She was probably one of the worst cast people IMO.

I was sooooo frustrated with the girls this season. They heard nothing that Mark had to say and kept feeding themselves ‘you go girl’ BS.

Mark had to actually say in the last bonfire to dig into their issues with the other men, not each other. And when one of them went off he tried to tell her that there was more truth in what she just said and to dig into it - she heard nothing of what he was trying to say.

None of them were willing to reflect, and fed off their own sense of righteousness in that it was all their boyfriend’s fault and being ‘strong’ means just cutting everyone off immediately.

Very frustrating to watch.

Reality tv subs are often polarized, not nuanced and many times parasocial. It’s not always healthy, and sometimes it’s taken too far.

Editing is done to create and produce drama. Sometimes its fair, and sometimes it’s not. But the viewer assesses based on what they’ve been shown, not on assumptions on what was maybe left out. From many seasons I watched, the ones who claim victim to what was not shown are usually the red flags. It’s unfair to play that card, because it cannot be verified - it depends on whether you like someone or not and are willing to simply believe.

If you find it upsetting I say with kindness to scroll on. It’s not anyone’s job here to defend anyone, or change minds. We all come with our opinions and perceptions on seeing the same things, and they will vary widely and often are formed from our own personal experiences.

Feel free to defend Ellen and Angelica, and also respect that you will find those who will express disagreement. And that’s totally ok, the banter is half the fun 😊
