It was worse, if you can believe it. Jesse was the least worst part of it. Around the halfway mark, the guest lurched from "men need to take care of their bodies if they want to live long" to "women shouldn't be allowed to work outside the home and should stay home and fulfill their natural role as baby makers." Actual quote (I was taking notes): "sex out of wedlock is dumb. Now you're taking on a woman who has been run through, and the more sexual partners a woman has had the less likely she is to pair bond, science has shown that."  What science is THAT? He was also saying men shouldn't get involved with women who have children already, because it shows they can't keep a man. I cannot believe I listened to the whole thing.

 

Tonight I actually felt a little for Ximena. 

  Hide contents

She really should have told Mike a long time ago she couldn't have kids, and she seemed genuinely regretful she hadn't told him before.

Mike handled the discussion very well, didn't fly off the handle, didn't cave in, just said: we need to keep talking about this. 

 

I won't go any further so everyone has a chance to watch first. In other 90 Day news, Season 3 of Darcey and Stacey starts tomorrow and I am definitely watching.

Elliot Hulse used to do excellent lifting and workout videos. I stopped watching a couple of years ago and the next time I checked in he was on the MGTOW train to nowhere. He is married and has daughters so I just don't get it. It was like watching two completely different people.

Finally done...

So I have now watched this week's Darcey & Stacey, David & Annie: After the 90 Days, and Single Life -- and ohhhhh boy. 

 

First things first -- David & Annie's show is pretty fun. They're in Thailand to escort her sister and cousin over here to study on student visas. The scenes in Bangkok are hysterical -- David letting loose shirtless on top of a bar after many, many shots of vodka is, well, kind of jiggly but very funny. Annie's ladyboy BFF Cindy was also great. But the parts back in Annie's village are just sweet, and I love it when the show goes to other countries (a la the Other Way and Before the 90). The show is not even 30 minutes long, highly recommended.

 

Single Life -- I want Syngin to go away. I hate his dumb shower cap, I hate him changing his mind all of a sudden on having kids (the reason why he broke up with Tania!) after one date with a 23-year-old, I hate his awful shirt and ugggggghhhhh. Mother Debbie is, I fear, about to be catfished. Big (Pr)Ed has his comeuppance and I am not sad; I only feel sad for his mom, who is adorable, and Teddy, who had no say in getting dragged to Mexico. And the Jesse/Jeniffer scenes were just terrible -- so fake, so dumb, and in their make up dinner she looked like she was wearing an oversized Ace bandage wound around her body, strapped to cover only the naughty bits. Bleh.

 

Lastly, my queens, Darcey and Stacey. 😍Their faces look APPALLING, dear god, and Darcey's daughter said her mom looks like Miss Piggy -- and I'm sorry to say, she's not wrong. Florian's photo shoot didn't convince me that Florian is actually a model. And I will not spoil anything by saying that I am 100% not surprised how things ended up with Georgi. Nope. Which is to say I am SO glad we have a Season 3! :D

Minion Mike is so desperate for his chance at "love" that no matter what new devastating news the user "girlfriend" tells him, he's not going anywhere.  SHOCKER!!!

 

First, she knew he wanted his own kids, but she can't have any and didn't tell him until he's in Colombia a few days--- he's ok with it, he will raise the other guys' kids

Then she tells him that she has lived with a sicario (hitman) and he's still wanting to marry her

How about the color of the water in that hot tub they were in??? Yuck it was brown. Mike needs to wake up, But he will when it's too late.

 

I see there is a new catfish, Mahgoney and that Ben, His kids could even see the picture was fake. Another David and Lana.

 

Gino needs to get the heck outta Panama!!! Before Jasmine stabs him or something! After seeing the coming week, i hope his eyes are opened.

 

Usman and Kimberly bore me, there is no story line there. He isn't gonna go to her room, kiss her or marry her.

I know -- I get all my hot 90 day gossip from Reddit and I know wayyyyy too much. Like Mursel and Anna are now having a baby via a surrogate and they can't wait to meet their future beekeeper.

Absolutely! I was watching last night and thinking: how does someone get to that level of crazy jealousy over... what? Paint colors?  I was talking with my husband about the paint thing and he said, Gino is a man. The paint is on his walls. He doesn't ascribe any sentimentality to the colors. The colors are there and if there's nothing wrong with it, why should he change it?

 

It made me wonder if I am an anomaly for not really caring too much about my husband's friendship with his ex-wife. I don't worry that he's going to run back to her because he still wears a sweater she bought him that he likes, and which suits him, or when their co-parenting discussions veer into some reminiscing. (I mean, I am in on many of these discussions so I'd know if it got weird!) I did get a little rumbled when I discovered a bunch of old love letters he still had from an ex-girlfriend, but he said he didn't realize he still had them, and promptly got rid of them. But generally, meh? He's a grown up person, he had relationships before me, and if he's friendly with several of his exes, it doesn't affect me. 

 

It was also an excellent opportunity for me to remind him how lucky he is to have me instead of Jasmine. He said no kidding, there was no way he would pay for fake baps like those and he rather likes keeping his anatomy intact.

I saw that too about Anna and Mursel having a baby lol but i don't go on Reddii.

 

Your point about the paint colors is spot on. I thought the same. Gino has no attachment to the paint lol Also when Jasmine screams that Gino compares her to his ex's is in her mind.

I like your hubs take on the paint.  It's spot on.  Kinda like a favourite mug being from Brazil...does it hold coffee?  YES! Check!  Does what I need it to do, irrespective of what's on the stupid cup. Jasmine is straight up loco!  

 

My ex came to visit the kids and stayed with my hubs and I.  Outsiders think we're weird.  I think it's adulting.  We're each happily remarried but I have known him for nearly 2 decades, so I can tell when certain things are off and I'll speak up.  That said, he's all his wife's and I have no desire to have him back!

I like when she tells him "Good Boy" or "Obedient".  He just sits there with that stupid look on his face.

Didn't Gino send Jasmine's nudes to his ex? Something tells me this is about so much more than a paint color.......

Gino dabbles in revenge porn, in my opinion. But it's such a weird tactic -- you send nudes of your current GF to your ex-GF to make her jealous? How does that work? If it were me as the ex-GF I'd think, I guess I dodged a bullet. And if I were the current GF and found out, I'd soon be another ex-GF I guess.

 

Then of course this is Jasmine so who knows? She might have put Gino up to it. 🤷‍♀️It's a very weird, almost Dominant/submissive dynamic going on there.
