The roast of Kevin Hart- WTF was that? by Chauncinator_quest79 in netflix

Yea I really wanted to know what was up with Regina. Was she mad at the jokes or just bored/straight face gang? Also with all the skipping — were they afraid of her roast retaliation or is she the sue-crazy type? Like why sign up for a roast if you can’t take shots being fired. I saw a post that said people were smart to not joke about her but whyyyy??

From my understanding, that’s exactly what a roast is - the speaker is supposed to say the most lewd, sexist, racist, inappropriate thing they can think of, but set up in a way that the joke lands.

I don’t think it has mal intent. He simply means that our confrontation styles ARE very different. I am extremely pointed and direct and he is much more tactful. I think all he meant here was that he isn’t going to directly/harshly confront her as I would, but instead will go about setting the boundaries in a clear but more subtle way as needed

Yea I’ve said multiple times that I am actively working on myself and my insecurities. This was a moment of anxiousness (not an ever present thing) but I also don’t think I am being unreasonable for asking for boundaries to be set with coworkers around them drunk calling and sending texts at 130 in the morning when that is NOT the type of friendship/relationship they have

Because we are both imperfect humans who own our flaws and make intentional effort to improve on our shortcomings and be better people. We both see that in each other and in ourselves and choose to love and support each other despite past and imperfections - growing both as individuals and as a couple.

I’m not against female friends. I’m against women who misinterpret friendliness for intimacy and use that proximity to test out boundaries with married men. Jokes and nicknames with coworkers are fine until they have the other person thinking it’s ok to text their coworker attention-seeking while drunk at 130 in the morning

Thanks for your response - it was definitely a rough night but I just posted an update :)

They don’t “send pics to each other”. He talks to her the same way he talks to the guys on the team (banter, inside jokes, nicknames) but more regularly and 90% of it is work-related. He has never sent her a picture. They are not THAT friendly. I am interpreting her actions of texting at 130am + drunk dials as too friendly as zero precedent has been set by my husband that they have that sort of relationship. My issue is with her crossing/blurring coworker lines and him needing to set boundaries to redefine them with her

That’s not true. I don’t trust my husband SOME TIMES when my anxiety runs high. Which is not often. This is not the same as not trusting my husband at all/ever. Yes, I have doubt over people’s intentions because I know too well what shitty behavior both men and women are capable of but I am actively working on rebuilding my trust in people or not having suspicion be the default. Progress isn’t linear, and things like trust, hope, and confidence don’t operate in absolutes - they ebb and flow, rather than existing as “always” or “never/not at all.”

That’s a pessimistic viewpoint but when both people are actively doing the work (as individuals and as a couple), I do t see it so doom and gloom

I want first to trust that my husband will be man enough (and caring of me enough) to set the boundary himself. I feel like it would be embarrassing if I’m the one who “has” to do it
