What is this shirt, new guy lol

Okay that dress looked lovely on Devin. I had a non trad dress and sometimes hate that I did that because I wanted to hide things I didn’t like about my body versus just being happy

How much is a wedding license in LA county?

A few of you love pups - she was very concerned about the lights reflecting in the window lol

Statue of a guy who wanted to fight to keep slaves about sums up a lot of things very much on those statues.

Did anyone else think tonight was a tell all because time has no meaning ?!

The guy with the black hat with tan trim and denim shirt looks like a cool youth pastor try hard.

Happy Sunday all! I’m so tired. Mr. Butts and I spent 3 days running errands and decorating.

Ready for this train wreck!

I think the biggest shift was the relationship started transactional for both and at some point shifted on her side and then it became unsalvageable. If it had stayed transactional and probably not “marriage” she could have had a FWB situation probably for years.

She never (to me recollection) shut herself in.

She did VERY early on but it was more of a blip in her story than an arc if that makes sense? I think it was valid too since she shared she did not know the language or how to shop but it seems she definitely had the agency to figure it out.

Thanks for sharing this PoV. I am curious are there not families with daughters that are also more conservative like them?

where did Mom/Brandan live in the US? I just worry the cost of that plane ticket!? If she needs to come back etc…

I assume she was in an expat community or apartment share situation.

That was literally the entire point of the apartment! She NEVER wanted to live with you guys and she was extremely clear about that before they got married.

also them needing to walk through the apartment on the regular, I would be miffed too- if that was explained prior and was left out that’s one thing but it does feel like another TJ oversight.

I think there was a lot of hope on her part and probably some level of assumption that it would work out- I also think that TJ didn’t think ahead and just assumed she’d go along with it.

I am not 100% sure still on why she seemed so detached from living after being married versus when she was there for a year; I’ve read some articles and linked one in live thread about how conservative families and in the more rural parts of India after marriage you’re expected to stay home more and not really socialize- it could be since they’re more conservative that the expectation was she would be home a lot??? Not sure- either way it was really sad they spent so much time and resources to be culturally amiss.

Mary and Brandan?

it did feel like it was edited - she looked noticeably more worn down 1-2 minutes later.

Someone said she likely lived in or amongst an expat community, which makes sense.
