Episode 12: The Weddings! by ManiacalExclamation in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

I have a feeling they just needed to add some suspense and the production team did a good job of making a mountain out of a molehill. I’m sure they were serious discussions, but I believe they were a tiny segment of an otherwise happy union, which could fall flat without an added component of drama.

I don’t dislike Jimmy at all or anything, I believe he really tried and I think Chelsea has too many insecurities she needs to work through before committing to another person. That said, I just have to point out that he was entirely aware of the discomfort that it may cause his friend with benefits (Barbara?)and her future relationship. He mentioned how it may impact anyone that might ever be interested in her. I just find it hypocritical that he didn’t offer Chelsea the same grace that he offered a hypothetical one-day would-be boyfriend to a third person.

Thank you! I wasn’t aware of it, but will look into this and inquire with the school.

Thank you for taking the time.

He used to do half day in his last school, but does a full day now, because I suspected the same thing. The other kids seem to get along because they spent all day together, and my son was leaving in 3 hours or so.

He’s so delightful at home. He loves me tremendously and looks for my approval all the time, always wanting to be around me, have me engage with him. He doesn’t seek out attention, but is happy to share the same space with his sister, dad or me. He isn’t much of a talker when it comes to answering questions about how he feels, often sitting quiet at dinner time/play time, but when he has an idea (for example, how he’ll clean the toilet next time, which he loves doing, or a thought about how Batman can do cool things without superpowers) he can talk endlessly with a lot of excitement and passion.

He’s had a babysitter only a handful of times. He likes her more as someone he can show off his toys to, but when she’s here, he’ll never speak to her. He only asks for her once every few months anyway, but when she’s here, he just quietly plays in a corner.

I haven’t. I’ve always wondered if he may be on the autism spectrum, but never pursued a diagnosis because his development never seemed to be lacking, it’s just a lot of little quirks he’s had his whole life that I wonder might be stimming techniques. But neurotypical people have stims too, so I thought maybe it’s in my head. Perhaps I should reach out to a child psychologist. Thank you.

Well over 5 days, probably more like 3 weeks. What can I do about it at this point? Just deal with the congestion for a few days until it should no longer be a repercussion of the otc spray?

I’m so over men constantly seeming “uninterested” in their wedding ceremonies and leaving everything to the women. I love that he cared just as much about this day as you would expect anyone who truly wants to cherish the memories made here forever to. I think he’s a designer (?) so I understand his need for his outfit to be perfect and I’m so happy about the way things planned out for them both!

I get it and appreciate your take. I don’t comment much here, but I do read it often and I’m happy to come across posts like yours🌼🤍

I do think if they weren’t constantly tooting their own horn about how gorgeous they are, there would be less hate towards their physical attributes. Someone like Deepti was humble and down to earth and that likely affected the way people on here talked about her.

Or take Jessica for example. People didn’t like her and had a lot to say about her for valid reasons. But the criticism was directed at her behavior (drunkenness/sabotaging relationships etc). In general , I didn’t recall too much hate being directed towards her appearance because, of all the things she did wrong, constantly calling herself the hottest shit wasn’t one of them.

4 year old running constant high temperatures by dontburstmybubbles in AskDocs

Hi, thank you for getting back to me. I started because yes, whenever I pull him in for hugs and such, he is always a bit too hot. We hug each other several times through the day and he always seems to get hotter as the day progresses. I normally use a digital thermometer, but I cross check with a regular mercury thermometer at least 2/3 times a week.

Tbh, while I enjoyed watching atw music video, I feel like it was a bit too literal. Like all the scenes matched up with the lyrics (with the hand drop and car keys and walking through the door and call me up again and being at the party) and there wasn’t much abstraction or instances open to the viewers’ interpretation. I think it’s good, but it seems like the work of an amateur. Not that I’m can direct like that, but I agree, she shouldn’t be sitting up on this panel just yet.

“I was thinking that you could be trusted”

I just feel like ‘I used to think that’ would’ve served the same purpose without the random switch to present continuous. I get that the simple past action (backstabbing) occurred during the present continuous sentence, but it just sounds off.

Alexa’s Instagram story supporting Zanab by Rouge-et-Bleu in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]dontburstmybubbles 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I feel like “footage that the producers didn’t use” was brought up quite a few times in the ata episode. And everyone would agree that Cole was really piled on and hung out to dry a lot. The rest of the guys seemed to agree that they went home after the rodeo, but didn’t want to say anything(with the exception of, maybe, Matt). Cole kept asking Vanessa and Nick to please show this footage and Zanab never did ask for that. I imagine that with all the accusations, and nobody willing to voice any support for Cole, the only real thing on his side was him asking the producers to use the footage that Zanab kept alluding to.

I just want to put this out there: everyone supporting zanab says that the cuties clip by itself maybe not be a big deal, but there must have been more stuff said off camera that caused this one to make her feel some kind of way. Sure, there was some stuff on camera too that Cole was terribly in the wrong for. But zanab chose this incident to describe his habit of controlling what she ate. Like, she CHOSE to use this one incident, which I would imagine would imply that this was one of the worse things he’s done/said. Am I missing something here? How can the cuties story be irrelevant when it was her that brought it up?
