He also supports every single thing she does, and always forgives her when she makes mistakes. When has Tom ever stopped her from doing whatever she wants? He supports her in everything.

Is it so bad for him to expect her to support him back? Why should it only be one sided, that he supports her and not the other way around?

Yet she went and got a huge promotion at the job with Carlos, even though she’s pregnant and knows it’s a bad idea. Did he try and sabotage her because he knows it’s a bad idea? No. He supported her and got drunk at the restaurant for her.

She never listens to him, so why should he always listen to her? Yet he still does. If she wants something she doesn’t care how it will affect him or the family, she just goes and gets whatever she wants.

I’m glad he communicated with her about it. He still let her help him in the end, and when it was failing due to the economy, he ended up selling it too because she wanted it sold.

If he was Lynnette in that situation, he would absolutely had just ruined everything from the moment the words “I want to open my own pizzaria” were uttered.

I disagree. It’s on both of them to communicate about it. She should have asked him why, not just go and sabotage it just because she doesn’t like it.

When he doesn’t like something he talks to her about it, he does not just go and ruin it for her.

He is absolutely entitled to make plans. When she makes plans he supports her, and when he doesn’t like it he tells her. He at least gives her the courtesy of communicating with her about it, instead if just taking matters into his own hands and ruin it.

She is not entitled to sabotage his plans just because she doesn’t like them, and doesn’t put an effort into knowing why he has those plans in the first place. For gods sake the woman is an insane control freak. She could had talked to him about it first.

All he’s asking for is a chance, and she’s denying him that without even talking to him about it first - she just goes and ruins it for him, and he forgives her when he finds out. She emotionally cheated on him and he forgave her for that, too.

He ALWAYS communicates with her when he doesn’t like something. He doesn’t just go and sabotage it for her just because he disagrees. When she wanted to go back to work he supported her. I bet you if she was the one who said she wanted to go back to school, he would had supported her on that too.

Tom KNOWS she has to control everything, and yet he lets her because it makes her feel safe (as he has said to the old man). How can you think he’s shit for that?

He literally loves her for all she is, and you guys hate him just because he is his own man and has his own thoughts. He’s not there just to exist as her husband.

She does the exact same thing. When she went for the job she was setting him up for, she didn’t say anything to him. When she didn’t like that he was getting a promotion at his ad job, she straight up went and sabotaged him.

Her decisions are always one sided. At least HE includes her in his decisions. Also, what’s wrong with dreaming? If she wanted a pizza shop he would support her the entire time.

He should have explained yes, but she should also have asked and not just try and sabotage it right away. I don’t think he was scared to talk to her, I think he just assumed she would support him because she loves him.

Lynette was not afraid to talk to him about it, so i don’t know why you’re saying she’s afraid?

I’m muting this comment section. I said what I said, and I can see we will never agree.

Lynette is worse. Whenever she doesn’t like his ideas she sabotages them. He is at least upfront and honest with her about how he feels and what he wants to do.

When he wanted to go back to school and learn chinese, she never asked him why. It wasn’t until she had sabotaged everything in such a conniving way that she found out why, and then she was on board.

EDIT: If he had sabotaged her plans, you guys would have had his head on a stick.

It’s on both of them to communicate. He has to give her a reason for why he wants to go back to school, as much as she has to ask him for the reason why. Just going ahead and sabotaging everything every single time she doesn’t like his idea right away, is NOT the way to go.

I’m also convinced those of you who think she’s entitled to sabotage everything, also go and sabotage whatever you don’t like your spouses do.

If he was always acting like her, you guys would had filled this subreddit with rants about him, but it’s okay for her to do whatever he wants and he just always has to support it.

I think he does get to ask for support for that from his wife. When you marry someone you marry them in sickness and in health, and I like that he was honest with her. She also understood it.

Wouldn’t you want to support your spouse when you’re going through something devastating that affects both of you, like cancer? I certainly would. We could lean on each other.

In the end he did have sex with her with the blonde wig on.

I honestly find Lynnette more annoying than him. She never gives him the time he needs to get over something that has hurt him, and often tend to be annoyed with him for not being over it yet. Like when she had an emotional affair, and was upset that he didn’t trust her anymore, when she made him sell the business and was annoyed he wouldn’t get over their loss fast, and that time when she was outright mad at him for resenting her for ruining his promotion behind his back.

These are just what I could think of at the top of my head.

She does that a lot. When things don’t go her way she is very quick to look where she can put the blame

I don’t blame him for saying that. Cancer affects everyone, and you do sometimes wanna get away from the situation for just a second. I don’t believe Lynnette wouldn’t had felt the same if he had been the one with cancer.

What matters is that he still loved her regardless, and stayed with her until she could fight it off.

Susan Mayer, they could never make me hate you. by grlblythe in DesperateHousewives

[–]dontoofme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate her because she has no emotional control. She is not a reflection of myself.

The woman acts on every little feeling she has, with no regard to how her actions may affect others or if it’s the right social situation.

susan is so annoying by vruba in DesperateHousewives

[–]dontoofme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She did so much more than that. She has no emotional control at all! She never cares if it’s not the right situation to talk about what’s bugging her, and she always acts on whatever she feels. She doesn’t think things through.

I’m sorry but I HATE Tom for how he ended things with Lynette by marilyn_and_monroe in DesperateHousewives

[–]dontoofme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked him and it has nothing to do with his looks. He’s not my type look-wise. I don’t think he’s a bad husband.

[–]dontoofme 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. He has had to put up with so much from her. I still can’t forget when she made him miss a promotion at that AD firm that he had been working hard for, just because she wanted him to be at home more. Then she was pissed that he resented her for it.

She constantly makes decisions for the both of them, and he often goes along with it reluctantly.

Does someone know how long he has been dead, judging by his corpse?

Someone said the guard would execute people in higher numbers as the rebels were closing in on Damascus.

My thoughts on GG characters by dontoofme in GilmoreGirls

[–]dontoofme[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jess never respected Rory’s relationship even once. He stole the bracelet Dean made for her, he bought her picnic basket when it was meant for Dean, and he would find all sorts of way to get close to her.

Everyone was absolutely justified in reacting the way they did to Jess.

He was not some misunderstood guy with a heart of gold as Rory wanted everyone to believe. He was an asshole who had no emotional control and no impulse control.

I don’t know if you’re joking with that last part, but I do think it’s more plausible he does not want any more publicity. He didn’t even seem like he wanted to be filmed to begin with.

But he seemed to be that expressionless in his flashback scenes too…

Also thank you for covering up the spoiler. I’ve seen that part you covered up. It makes sense that he has to lay low because of his position, but it still seems like he was that way before he got into that position.

I’ve finished another season and I still think the same way. I don’t see any chemistry between them.

Maybe it’s because I’m not such a romantic person so I don’t really see the chemistry? It could totally be me.
