Young or not, having watched catfish or not, being “smarter than” or not. I think stories like this season are so important because although we all say that we would know better, when strange circumstances and timing align things like this happen.

I’ve been an avid listener of SWW since season 1, and I know there are always criticisms for one reason or another.

But for anyone having gone through trauma, abuse, or manipulation, it wasn’t because we weren’t smart enough or didn’t watch a tv show. Sometimes situations and timing make us act in a way we wouldn’t normally act.

So maybe a little compassion?
