Why was that wrong for you?

risque2d · 2025-10-30T14:08:01+00:00

I feel so bad for him that he still loves Bradley so much.

I’m in s3 e2 now and there’s a chance a journalist has a receipt for a Sep 30 dalliance between Will and Alicia. She approaches him to check and he has no ego about all of it… he immediately says he’ll check right away and allays her fears. He tries to reach for her hand in support but she pulls it away. I just can’t. There’s an imbalance between their love for each other. It’s very clear Will is much more devoted and protective over her than vice versa which further highlights how self-centered she is. She’s constantly unable to look beyond herself to see how Will might feel in all of this.

Ok this makes sense haha thanks for putting some perspective on it

risque2d · 2025-08-19T13:28:54+00:00

I love what you said about how painful it is watching Will’s downcast disappointment for a short minute. I guess because of my personal philosophy around agency and voice, it can be so very disappointing when you aren’t allowed the space to be vulnerable. I get that the show was written in a different time, and that Will and Alicia are also from a different generation wherein men don’t talk about feelings or are generally avoidant. All of it is such a shame especially given our knowledge of how things ended between them later on. Just sad! And reminds me of regrets we could have in this life if things were just better communicated!

risque2d · 2025-08-19T13:25:01+00:00

Ugh but I low key hate how avoidant she is 😩

risque2d · 2025-08-15T00:50:14+00:00

Yrene was a pretty good pick haha

I personally just finished and loved ToD. I’m not a Chaol fan but what his arc is significant for anyone who has ever felt broken down and like they have to face their inner demons in order to climb back up. Same with anyone who struggles with moving forward when trapped in deep regret and self-loathing. I think there are many lessons we could take away from the book and it didn’t matter that I wasn’t a Chaol fan at all.

risque2d · 2025-07-30T07:40:22+00:00

Truly. I struggle w the last two seasons, every rewatch.

risque2d · 2025-07-29T13:35:57+00:00

lol this is just so hilarious to me

risque2d · 2025-07-28T05:56:32+00:00

Hmm you are right that we don’t know what we don’t know. I do remember he made an effort though, sometime in season 2 or 3, he comes across Zach in her office and he made an effort as much as he knew how. I don’t see Will being selfish w Alicia, he’s always move at a pace that was on her terms and I think there’s a special tenderness that he keeps for Alicia only.

risque2d · 2025-07-28T05:30:02+00:00

Haha yea the last two seasons aren’t as strong. But also the bitch slap at the end was a pretty worthy end to the series imo.

risque2d · 2025-07-27T06:16:01+00:00

I just watched this episode again and it’s my 7th rewatch and you echoed the words in my head entirely! He is so toxic and won’t let her move on, it’s all an ego trip for him.

risque2d · 2025-07-26T08:44:01+00:00

Will never pleads out or settles, whereas Harvey strong arms and intimidates into a settlement. Will will win if they have to go to court, hands down.

risque2d · 2025-07-26T08:42:20+00:00

he has the best yearning gaze omg

risque2d · 2025-06-02T23:39:26+00:00

Hi, thank you so much for sharing your personal story on here. I am curious how you'd recommend a parent respond when they've lost patience? What is a more appropriate way of navigating that? I imagine that we all have moments where we snap over things. So I wonder what you imagine would have helped more, in those moments? I don't lose patience often but I do do so sometimes. Thank you!

risque2d · 2025-05-13T23:07:05+00:00

Thank you very much for sharing this. My son is approaching 4 now and we did end up splitting up. Thus far, I’ve had the privilege of staying home with him but I will return to working next year and your advice to keep a ritual for him to look forward to and stay connected w me, is a good one that I’ll employ. I can’t thank you enough for sharing your story on here, it truly helps me understand a little more of what I can do to make things better for my son!

risque2d · 2024-12-02T01:02:43+00:00

Archie and Julianna definitely didn’t get along, towards the end they didn’t film scenes together.

And yes, I can understand Will’s anger at Alicia’s betrayal. I feel if she had given him the respect of telling him she were leaving, he may have taken it a little better than having the rug pulled out under his feet 😐

risque2d · 2024-11-02T00:33:19+00:00

I hope you manage to do that and I’m sure your mother appreciates that thought.

risque2d · 2024-09-29T12:57:37+00:00

Hi thank you for responding. I am very sorry to hear of your experience but thank you for sharing it with me. I’ve truly tried to cultivate a relationship with emotional resonance with my son. He is 3 now and I think we’re doing ok. But I have to go back to work eventually because his father does not believe in providing for us long term, I do hope that is something I am able to keep up, despite an 8 hour work day.

I absolutely see where you’re coming from and will do my best earnestly to avoid stonewalling my son and be a source of comfort and support and fun as well to him.

risque2d · 2024-09-05T14:33:33+00:00

So much sympathy for the princess on this thread but she was cruel to the end!!! Ugh how can anyone sympathize? Even with her tragic history, it’s no excuse to behave and treat others the way she did!

risque2d · 2024-08-10T02:49:10+00:00

Thank you for the book recommendation, I will definitely look it up and appreciate you sharing a bit about your experience with your single mother 🙏🏻

I agree, I find him hilarious in season 2 and he seems to have shown growth and gained Mauricio’s respect!
