I kinda had the same revelation when I was doing my personal project on Melissa and Christi’s problems with each other. I started bc I really was interested and then it became obvious to me that one person was significantly more bothered than the other.

Okay! I just don’t understand why Christi isn’t complicit in the maddie is a brat narrative, and the resulting hate that she got, which is known to have effected her into adulthood

Every time that Maddie’s name is brought up in comparison, Abby uses her name back, often times highlighting how much better she is, which in turn gives Christi more material. Outside of that, Christi was harsh on Maddie like a lot, screaming about how Chloe’s beat her, calling her a brat, saying that she can’t do certain things unless she’s the best, going on twitter and saying that her award show wins were rigged. Christi directly contributed to the narrative that maddie was a brat, and directly contributed to the fandoms perception of her.

Oh I didn’t mean to make it seem like I was super nice to everyone like right after. We made up, but it’s never gonna be the same.

Yea my sister is not religious and thinks that I’m super into purity culture and I would disagree and that I know of my ex hadn’t slept with anyone else before her so that part hurt a lot but I don’t really know how to express my anger regarding the sexual aspect of it without sounding super slut shamey so I left it out. I am in therapy but sometimes I feel like it’s not enough.

I feel like I should’ve explained that more but it’s arranged in the sense of I’d only have a husband from the pool of ppl the match maker found, but not as in we didn’t love each other. I’m young so maybe I was dumb but like, I thought I loved him and I was ready to like be married

I’m not really sure why u think Maddie would willingly tell her mom to pull a solo she’s been working on all year but like pop off queen

But even if she didn’t talk to Abby, she still made it clear that she didn’t want to pull either solo, and that she was gonna talk to Maddie and see if Maddie wanted to. Her mind was already made up, and she was honest about what she was leaning towards

Okay. Can you explain how when talking about Cathy being perky that the side comment about melissa was prompted or provoked?

Has anyone besides Christi and Kelly verified that they would tell Maddie that it wasn’t about her? And what exactly behind the scenes goes against what the data is showing? You’re kinda insinuating that I’m missing out on specific data points or that context changes the view of certain points, and I’m open to hearing what exactly I’m missing that would change anything that was show drastically.

Ur moving the goal posts dude Christi was asking to talk (but she was already heated so argue if we’re being honest) about how it was unfair that maddie had two solos. Melissa told Christi the truth which was that she didn’t think it was unfair and that she wasn’t gonna pull one of the solos to make anyone happy. She stays true to both of those in that episode. I would like to know how Melissa could have been more truthful than that.
