That’s what people do here too they work really hard and save up for a down payment for a home except they don’t get to live rent free so it takes them a lot longer and they have to work a lot harder and once they get their house they have to keep working they don’t just chill and play video games while they have a baby on the way.
The issue really is Mary’s fault. She refused to let him do anything with other human beings in fear a “female” would be near him including his own mother and sister!!!. She completely isolated him with only her on an iphone screen for connection. What did she expect? He plays video games all day as that’s the only main interaction or mental stimulation he was allowed to have for two years!
She created an isolated environment that lead him to become dependent on video games for any mental stimulation or interactions without her flipping out, crying, hyperventilating and threatening him!
The only human being I feel bad for is the baby neither of them are mature enough to raise.
Well, and the cameraman
They both made this mess. There are 2 people in a relationship.
I get he might be depressed and not knowing the language is hard but there’s no reason as to why he shouldn’t be trying to help with the farm or to cook or help clean or something. Honestly, both seem relatively lazy. They’re always asking for money online. And she’s seemingly still trying to make it big on TikTok. Either he needs to be more hands on so she can go back to school or he needs to figure out how to market himself locally to try to earn some form of income for their family. Either way, arguing about deciding between buying a newer phone or a video game, isn’t a good look when they constantly have a hand out, asking strangers for money.
He thought Mary was the answer to all of his emptiness, loneliness and neglect. However, as it turns out, Mary is not good for him as she is an abusive bitch. So now he’s trapped because he’s too stupid to use protection and doesnt want to leave his offspring
Trying to analyze anyone on this show much less these two young people is crazy. How do most of the cast end up from this show , much less 2 of the youngest cast members ever. This is predictable
All I see is the ‘poor Brandan’ narrative. Him and Mary are BOTH responsible for the garbage, toxic life they are living. Brandan is an adult. He’s not a baby. He does not have to be trapped there, but he chooses too be. Mary is not a saint, she’s extremely manipulative. That doesn’t take away from Brandan’s issues as well. This really all boils down to 2 young adults who are paying the price for their messed up childhoods, they are immature and should not have brought children into this mess.
Brandan obviously put no thought or foresight into how he was going up support a family but Mary seems to be certifiably crazy in the coconut. They are a disaster in the making from day one. Both having fault of their own and while I do think Mary is worse, Brandan is just as responsible for ignoring all her red flags. I guess that’s what you get with damaged people.
But he can’t really work there legally and it seems like Mary doesn’t want to even tho B could be a SAHD. these two thought nothing through at all.
Many guys go for “less than”… “Lower standard…” Poor subsurviant Asian or latina girls" like myself to get treated like a king.
Brandon is still a pretty good guy. He means well… He’s very lovable to many… but yes… he’s young yet grown. He will find out the hard way what this will take to have a grown ass man marriage and family… of course he has help from DADDY TLC
He is a child. He had no structure growing up and needs a kick in the a** to get his stuff together.
I don’t believe he is lazy, I think the gaming is like his way of escaping reality. I’m sure depression will hit soon if it already hasn’t. He knows, he didn’t make the right choice being with her and a child as well but now its like he is too far gone or invested in this. Her constant nagging because she doesn’t have any hobbies makes him even more miserable, so he is just like a little hermit crab at this point. Toxic relationships come in many shapes and sooner or later you completely lose your identity and just like give up and I feel like he is at that stage where he just doesn’t give a f@ck anymore and playing video games is his only way out because I’m sure he can’t drink or smoke there.
You know what would be fair? Him selling HIS house and coming back to the US and never speak to Mary again. Maybe give her 10K for her to rent some shack for a while for all the trouble she went exploiting him for years.
Someone really needs to explain the sunk costs fallacy to this guy.
PH is full of lazy people with horrible work ethic so he should fit right in. Hell your own government makes up holidays on the fly, sometimes with less than 24-48 hours notice, just to give people days off work or force employers to pay +30% or more. Many of the people I work with even “joke” (they arent really joking) about how they can retire in their 40’s because they have multiple kids who will “take care of them”. Meaning, they sit at home and do nothing while their kids go to work and are expected to give their earnings to the parents. Its not even a lot of their fault because its the “culture” and my own wife gets irritated when I pass judgement but I’ve never had to work with or manage a lazier group of people than those in PH.
I do not believe the “Brandan paid for the house” story. It was mentioned at the beginning of the season that he kept losing jobs because the bosses didn’t like him being on his phone all the time. Also the fact that they have to live under the grandparents rules, if it were Brandan’s house I’d say “This is my house and I make the rules here” and would make the grandparents pay rent. So I think it was the grandparents who got the money together to build the house. Brandan might have contributed something towards that but I don’t think he paid to have the entire house built.
He is doing exactly what he was doing in Oregon
He sent Pandemic money and played it off as hard work
He lives in an RV and doesn’t have a regular job
I live in Eugene area and he could have been working fast food for 18@hr
Nah, he was working, trimming. Mary could stare at him all day and there’s no boss breathing down his neck.
Yup idk where everyone’s getting this story from I remember he lived in his RV and did odd jobs around the house for rent I never heard him say he had a job lol
