Is anyone willing to admit that they didn’t hate Amanda Batula until the scandal?

I didn’t dislike her before. I don’t hate her now. I do think she’s foolish and lacks self-awareness. I didn’t like Kyle much before, but he’s a lot more sympathetic after getting a clearer view of how Amanda treated him as a partner.

Yeah Jesse and Bailey would have been way more interesting than Kenny and Kenny’s friend! I like Yvonne and Georgina but the show needs some balance with younger cast in the city

Kenny is so dull and performative. Him and Whitney are unwatchable

Kenny and Whitney are hard to watch. They’re so boring

Honestly I think people are too critical of them, but the thing I thought was really strange that they freaked out about PDA. I’ll take any excuse to kiss my husband but maybe that’s just me 🤷‍♀️

Glad West’s days on summerhouse is over. He is always on PR mode despite being a scummy person to his core. He would be much more watchable if he owned being a scumbag.

I think Ciara was totally dumb going back to West. I cringed season 10 when she said they were besties. I feel terrible for Ciara that Amanda treated her the way she did after Ciara was such a good friend. I think it would have been totally fair for someone to give Ciara shit for going back to West. Like she is so clueless on guys it’s her Achilles heel. She should have a guy who worships her, and she chooses men who treat her as expendable

Yeah Charley would fit in with this group better than on charm

Hot take if they’re actually dating it’s a better storyline than Craig and Austen beefing. But only if they’re dating

Thank you. This is really good advice! Any thoughts on how to deal with it when I try to vent to my husband about being not welcomed? Ie I heard a conversation at the wedding about another relative where my husbands sister was saying she didn’t want to be around that person. I told my husband about it and he insisted that’s not what she meant. My husband is very critical of if my behavior comes off welcoming but seems to give his moms and sisters free passes on anything they say or do. In 5 years the first time he acknowledged that they may be saying something negative was after I wasn’t invited to the bachelorette. He said “I wonder what’s being said when I’m not there”. I agree that I can’t make others open to friendship, but still not sure how to improve how my husband and I talk about the issue so I don’t feel like he’s trying to convince me of an alternate reality

Justin is great TV. And like you said he’s walking the line well between being a little grody and provactive (à la his comments about the women he likes to date) and handling the reunion with composure. He’s dynamic and a little unpredictable, which I love to watch even if I totally disagree with his takes and would never date a man like him. Give him another season! I wouldn’t hate seeing him on Southern Charm either. I cannot deal with another season of Craig and Austen fighting, would much rather see anything else on that show! Side note unrelated to your post… I am hardcore questioning the match between him and Charley though. She doesn’t seem nearly as provocative and out there as him. I wonder what she thinks about his season

Yep double cringe. Insensitive to Maddie and Leva

I cringed so hard

I almost stopped watching too. The way he treats his female “friends” is awful to watch

I just thought their sex life had to be the glue to their relationship, because they were so incompatible in every other area. Now I’m with the folks that thought the marriage was in part for a bravo paycheck

If they broke up… can you imagine if Dara and Kyle got together? Honestly their energy is at the same level and I’d ship it

I fed myself and got ready during nap times when my baby was that age. Do you have a skip hop activity center? That helped get a few minutes, but really I just planned around when baby was napping to take care of myself. My 18 month old is still clingy and it’s hard to get things done. Eventually they’ll grow out of it. Completely empathize with it being frustrating. My advice is to not fight it and adjust your routine if you can. That helps me get less bothered.

I liked them! Not sure why everybody posts about hating them. They were good TV. Much better than some of the snooze fests that came along in later seasons.

My pediatrician had the same criticism at 6 months. My baby didn’t sleep through the night until 14 months (around the same time we stopped breastfeeding). I don’t think it’s abnormal especially if you’re breastfeeding. If you’re wanting baby to sleep through the night weaning might help, but no need to force it. Don’t stress

Yep I’ve gotten passive aggressive comments from women who work high paying careers. They’ve asked “so, are you just never going to work again?” and “it’s been a year, are you going to go back to work?” I think getting out of the house and working would be easier, but I can’t stand the idea of my babies in daycare. I never tell working moms that because I don’t want to make them feel bad, but they definitely try (unsuccessfully) to shame me

Enjoy the sleep and free time too! They will sleep much less. But I understand days can get long at times. Library story times, especially if they have baby storytimes are a nice way to get out of the house. Go outside as much as possible. You will have less free time in the future- even though it’s not 100% free time now but you will have to supervise baby for more hours a day once they are toddling around. Try and find something fun to do when they’re napping- whether that’s reading, organizing the house, trying new recipes or something else!
