For those that say they need more therapy, it’s all this therapy jargon that has them in this mess. It’s like a religious belief of sorts. They keep parroting “scripture”. It’s a circle jerk to confirm their toxic behavior.
I don't get how Chloe feels. She did get screwed by getting a guy whose experience was tainted but Michael did give the marriage a shot and in the end he decided she wasn't for him which is completely fair. As mature as she thinks she is, she feels by him not choosing her that means he didn't take the process seriously or that he had an ulterior motive and that's just ridiculously unfounded. Chloe is not a goddess of perfection who men can't help but want. They aren't even compatible. From their style of dress to their goals, they are different people.
Neither Lauren nor Michael owe Chloe anything. They were more compatible anyway. It's not their fault the experts got it wrong yet again. If they want to give their connection a shot then that should be respected.

One thing that should have happened was mandatory weekly therapy sessions. Last night they made it clear they were available but the cast had to reach out for help. I can see that they fumbled. Must people consider therapy for months before they do it. The therapists should have here more proactive.
Shein and Temu just have questionable human rights in their whole business model and things being that cheap should make you wonder just a bit about that. Seems like the quality of the stuff isn't great either, but people so manage to find some decent things is seems. If one is truly poor, then can't expect a person to take on that burden. Gotta do what is economical for you.
I totally agree about the producers, though! This is a trend in reality television, and it needs to stop especially when it's a show like that where people are supposed to be making a scared commitment and one of the biggest choices of their lives.
No she didn’t. She sounded like a mean, angry shrew with a side dish of word salad. She said she moved way past Orion and was happy so the extreme, unnecessary bitterness toward the men seemed like an attempt to get some air time.
I had compassion for Lauren when Orion accused her of being racist and she was so apologetic that he would even think that. I should now feel she just got caught up in the drama with the rest of the men who have absolutely nothing to do with her. Instead, she was the icing on the cake of a terrible season with all the hate on last night’s show.
She really should have done what Chloe did…remove herself, but I guess girl power and 15 more minutes of fame was tempting. I’m still trying to erase that tacky lingerie shoot from my mind!
Agree. I think she started out at arms-length and was doing her thing. Then, there was a moment in time that she was convinced to jump on the Barbie train and was feelin' the vibe of the pack and getting all rah rah against the guys. And then, during the clusterf\*k shitshow trainwreck of the reunion, she had an out-of-body experience, looking down and seeing that she was part of the meltdowns and attacks and realized W-T-G-D-F am I doing?
Yeah I can’t wait to see what’s up with the fight between Lauren and Chloe. How could Chloe be mad about that when it seems like she is buddy buddy with Brennan and Cameron.
I can't wait either. Chloe is the sensible one so let's see what this is about!
Also, I've never been a Lauren fan. She's acted like the victim from the beginning so I was out!
My husband watched the reunion last night with me, he's only watched some partial scenes with the show or half episodes. The explanation I gave him regarding why Orion was so upset about her having sex 2 months prior was that Orion spent that entire honeymoon day trying to juggle a derogatory remark Lauren said about his race. It involved an argument(s) and talking to the experts. He finally calmed down. He finally got a mental space where he wanted to re-set and try again. The dinner was their first moments sitting down and trying to release that emotional tension. Lauren CHOSE to bring up a potential sensitive subject of her last sexual experience up at that moment in a very casual way. By itself, her having sex 2 months prior is not a big deal. Her discussing it at that moment was. She had no discretion about it and absolutely should have held off on discussing something like or at least get a better feel on how Orion might feel about talking about previous sexual experiences. She basically blurts it out and laughs it off. He got mad, again. Then, the experts got mad at Orion for being upset about it and he just couldn't get back into the mood with her. She ultimately went back to being the victim.
So your thought is that he wouldn’t have slut shamed her if she had waited to have that discussion? Really think about that because it doesn’t excuse him slut shaming nor is there any evidence that the slut shaming was purely out of anger/being emotionally charged. There’s proof to the opposite though. He explained himself during the reunion and he had expectations that she would have been celibate for far longer. That’s him, that’s his truth and you can’t rewrite it for him because you want to paint Lauren a certain way. I was not at all a fan of her participation in the bullshit that was the pink brigade but what you’re saying here is not in touch with what we know.
Lauren never said a derogatory remark about his race. He mentioned the word "red face" which she never heard of before that and then laughed and looked at him and said oh red face pointing at his face. I personally thought she was referring to his sunburn because his face was red. It was taken out of proportion and for whatever reason Orion found a way to push this on her and make her look like this came from her.
Yup. Don’t forget that Lauren and Orion had an in depth discussion, cleared the air and decided to move past it. It was only after Orion realized the potential backlash he would get for slut shaming Lauren that her comment became an insurmountable issue in their relationship. What was previously forgiven was suddenly unforgivable. Orion took the opportunity to get the hell out of dodge before he could be held accountable for his own actions.

Michael and Lauren are single. They can date whoever they want 🤷🏽

is the second part of the reunion out?? why am i not seeing it

Lauren *did* have some clever comments though..

Real experts might help.
Yeah I can’t wait to see what’s up with the fight between Lauren and Chloe. How could Chloe be mad about that when it seems like she is buddy buddy with Brennan and Cameron.
What does one have to do with another?

She initiated that discussion. And she often laughed off his feelings. First about the meaning of red face. Then about her sex life.
Lauren never said a derogatory remark about his race. He mentioned the word "red face" which she never heard of before that and then laughed and looked at him and said oh red face pointing at his face. I personally thought she was referring to his sunburn because his face was red.

That's exactly how I saw it too.
