If it were my husband, it could have come from rolling out of my mothers purse, rolling out of my sister’s purse, rolling out of either one of my nieces’ purses, possibly a coworker, and I think that’s about it. That’s still a lot of possibilities. In Gino’s case, it could have very easily come from TLC

Googling enmeshed family

I think they both have huge problems and are both using each other. I have felt that Danielle is just more of an idiot than Yohan. With Yohan I might have more sympathy because he is trapped in a way that Danielle isn’t. From the get go, Danielle played it off like they would live in the US. His expectations from the beginning were to go to the US and be able to earn a normal living. That was all that was needed for the rest to happen as it did. Danielle wants to live like a queen in DR. Yohan knows that it’s impossible for him to play that sort if game. Danielle still expects it (because she’s delusional) and Yohan already knows that it’s completely impossible no matter what he does. I don’t like either of them, but I feel Danielle is more culpable in the way the rest of the story pans out.

No… that’s definitely not what I said. There are negative traits that aren’t 'if only’s. If only’s are major traits that are the kinds of things the other partner can’t look past. For me, traits that I can’t budge on are smoking, drug use, excessive drinking, bad credit, mean to animals, mean to kids, mean to me, etc. Traits that bug me but I can look past… snoring, leaving dirty socks on the floor, not cleaning the bathtub after he uses it, weed whacking the wrong bushes,etc.

Your bar for relationships is lower than my own. That’s all I can say. My biggest prerequisites to getting married were that because I already had an amazing life as a single lady, I would only date a man who somehow made it even more fabulous (which was a tall order) and that I would never accept ‘if only’ in my thought process about a relationship. He’s so sweet, kind, and funny… if only he was more responsible about his spending. He’s so handsome, responsible, romantic, and great in bed…if only he didn’t hang out every weekend at a strip club.

Usman, Jose, and Nikki need a collab

It would not be appealing to me, but then… even when I was 25, that would have been an instant turn off.

The standard of throwing poopy toilet paper away in a garbage can in Mexico is always unsettling.

The squat toilet on the moving train in S. Korea was 😳. You can see the tracks through the hole.

The hotel room in Poryong (S.Korea) that was completely unheated and freezing. There was a sleeping mat in a concrete floor and that was it. Super weird. It was $125/night and that was in 2001. There’s no way it would even be legal to offer that sort of accommodation in the US.

Ashley seems far more comfortable speaking Spanish

I don’t know enough Spanish to translate everything, but I know enough to know that the translations aren’t exact. They give the gist I guess.
