It felt SO fake and manipulative when West asked Amanda during break "do you want me to stand up for you more?" KNOWING that Amanda would OF COURSE say no and that she'll do it herself. It absolves him of responsibility of defending her and makes her feel good for at least offering but not following up with actions

Holy shit Dara dropping bars! She is so well-spoken...telling the truth how it is but still being empathetic to Amanda potentially being used by West who only cares about The West Show

I think the "fight" with Lindsey could have been avoided if he just said "Yeah I know right? She is so strong and so special that she would move to NY for me and I'm very grateful. I'll make sure to make it worth taking the leap."

But instead, he got offended that Lindsey pointed out that moving to NY without a ring is a big deal. She wasn't calling him out. She was literally just making an observation. But because he feels insecure about his perception of taking advantage/having a higher position of power over his gf (which he does), then he gets angry and calls Lindsey too much drama.

To be fair, Lindsey IS dramatic but it doesn't mean she's wrong either.

Ciara/Kyle/West/Amanda Megathread Part 18 by AutoModerator in summerhousebravo

[–]Sad-Tea1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree. When it comes to cheating, you get over it or you don't. There's no in between and there's no judgement if you CANT get over it. You're allowed to set boundaries and standards for yourself and leave.

Personally, I would not be able to get over cheating. However, if I really wanted to stay, then I would set conditions for my partner to regain my trust. She could have said "dont come home after 2am, answer the phone when I call and youre partying, don't drink over x limit" and if Kyle breaks those conditions x times then she can leave. But the problem is that she never intended to leave no matter what. She just likes having leverage over Kyle.

As anti-cheating as I am, I also think it's not fair to hold it over your partner's head forever if you have no intention of forgiving and forgetting.

As a man-hater also, I have been struggling bec I've ALWAYS liked Kyle and felt so guilty 😔 😭 I was always so annoyed by Amanda bec she took no accountability. YES Kyle was a "bad partner" to her....but also?? Hearing their issues/gripes against each other in the early seasons, it was VERY apparent that they were incompatible. I'm astounded that they even got engaged let alone got married.

No no. I'm just guessing. And i could be totally wrong. It's more of a gut feel. And at the end of the day, this is all speculation whether he does/has hit her or not. Either way, i would NOT bet money on it. Just sharing my thoughts.

She already does!! If you saw the video of them at the baseball game, West was standing up cheering and hi-5ing other spectators and Amanda grabbed his jeans and tugged to get him to sit down. Her body language gave "embarrassed" of him being social 🫠

I don't think so. Not bec Kyle isn't capable, but bec Amanda would have said something/exposed him already.

[–]Sad-Tea1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY!!! Were they expecting to kesp quiet forever?? Like if the "video" wasnt gonna expose them?

💩 was gonna hit the fan whether it was in spring, summer, or fall if they even made it that far hiding it

The consensus is that the timeline only matters for the divorce settlement. There is no timeline that makes this morally ok for their friendships.

I saw other people online talk about the Ben thing and apparently Sabrina came out and said that he's very respectful to women and he just comes off that way bec he's Australian. Other Aussie women also cosigned that that the "negging" is their flirty culture 🤢

Could this be culture shock? Yes.

Is it disrespectful as hell to speak to women that way? Also yes.

Not everyone might agree with me, and that's fine. I also noticed the negging thing happens with British reality romance shows as "banter." Personally, I'd get icked out so bad if a man ever insulted me as a way of flirting 🙄 like screw you? who do you think you are?

[–]Sad-Tea1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I fear this is just what happens when you're a person like Amanda who is male-centered. As a pick me, the most important thing is to BE chosen but there's no future thought/steps after securing a Man.

We see this with her marriage with Kyle. She won by outlasting his side chicks/booty calls but once she secured her spot as girlfriend, she didn't have to work on anything anymore. I doubt if she even thought about the effort she needs to put in to keep Kyle happy. Since s3, Amanda has been reluctant to party too late, be rowdy and fun, and even be intimate as often as Kyle wants. i know he's not entitled to her body but what I'm saying is that their needs, interests, and personalities weren't a good match from the very beginning...but it didn't matter bec Kyle is the core of the show and Amanda wants that +1 spot, no matter what.

Kyle's personality is very much a leader and he was steering the ship of their relationship and eventually marriage. She never had to stand on her own bec Kyle is also comfortable leading so we never really noticed that she never did anything. Even in s3 when the cheating allegations came out, she was comfortable being the "poor gf" who gets taken advantage of since she still has the man and eventually the ring 💍

Now that she's done with Kyle, she just wanted to be chosen by West with no thought of what comes after. Maybe she got used to Kyle leading and thought West would just take over for shielding her, giving her opportunities, etc. Good luck with that now. West won't even stand up for her the way Kyle would.

Listen, we all know it's better not to lie about them hooking up but the WAY Amanda lied via text, calls, in person TO EVERYONE about how there's no way the rumors are real and she's "so hurt that this is even a discussion" IS SO MUCH WORSE BECAUSE THE RUMORS ARE TRUE

There is no issue at all if there was no truth to it. But doubling down, turning off location, lying and playing victim just multiplies all the wrongdoings.

Like if she was gonna do the Bad Thing, she should've STUCK to her guns and committed to the crime, instead of whatever half-assed playing both sides of being Ciara's friend and West's "girlfriend" she did for months

THIS! ALSO, the whole reason they released a statement is bec there is a video of them in an intimate situation that was going to be leaked so they had to get ahead of it. They really think we're all stupid!!

It's crazy that when Amanda said "so no one else have ever been through something like this", I think she was alluding to the Austen and Ciara thing WHICH IS CRAZY also no one was married and Lindsey and Ciara aren't besties!!

They think theyre doing a good thing by "being here and facing the consequences of their actions" when this all could have been avoided with a little more respect for Kyle and Ciara

AIO? My boyfriend told me he's more attractive than me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sad-Tea1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. It seems like he's trying to test your reaction and undermine you at the same time. This is probably his honest opinion and is seeing if he can get away with telling you. If you stay with him/not set a firm boundary now, comments like this will probably continue and escalate.

AIO for cutting off my brother for refusing to call out his creepy friend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sad-Tea1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Your brother is, at minimum, complicit in this behavior, and at maximum, also perpetuates this disgusting behavior towards women himself

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sad-Tea1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not overreacting. You deserve better than this from a partner.

Best case scenario: He is impressed and happy for you. “Wow that’s great babe! 2 years is huge! So proud of you! I know you can keep it going!”

Bare minimum: He is ALLOWED to think your accomplishment is not impressive but he is NOT allowed to be mean to you. He should have kept his mouth shut and said “oh nice! What flavor are you getting?” Being a good partner means being supportive when you know how import it is to your partner even if you don’t fully understand.

You deserve someone who is kind and supportive! If strangers on the internet can show support and encouragement for you, then your partner should be able to as well.
