So the rest of these thoughts are just randomly about the show and things that made me concerned because well hell they were concerning. As someone who has been in a polyamorous relationship I know it takes effort and it's not for everyone. Hell I'm not always sure it's right for me but that's for another time. I also know that cameras can highlight flaws that you may not be aware of until you watch them back yourself later with a more objective lens. That's why you won't see me letting folks follow me around with cameras. I'm a hot mess lol.
- One of the chicks who is being considered as a potential sister wife said her primary reasons for wanting to explore the idea of polygamy was because of her childhood. She'd be on her own since she was 14 and is missing a family as well as she can't have children of her own so the fact that there were already seven kids was ideal. Danger danger Will Robinson. You need therapy and then to adopt this is not your mission. At the end of her episode when she should have arrived she stood them up so maybe her friend talked some sense into her.
- The other potential wife featured in the episode I finished watching is super young like at least 10 years younger than the couple. They meet her and she's saying the right things but all I'm seeing is she shady. Don't ask me why cause I can't tell you but she seems shady. When they asked her how she thought the initial meeting went she didn't talk about the wife in the couple at all, just the husband and how attractive she was. I'm telling you shit is about to pop off there.
- One of the families is imploding cause the wives are bickering and the husband is much too chill to intervene and like all of y'all need to play nice. First wife is on her anniversary weekend, bad things will ensue.
- I'm probably going to turn off the channel because it's a clusterfuck of things that are about to pop off. And it's making me have flashbacks of 50 shades, just about polygamy, which is never good. But before I do I need to watch him explain being in violation of rules they set.
I totally understand that I'm probably more freakishly concerned about my privacy than other people are some days but I think it's mostly because I don't want to pony up my privacy for education, fame, etc. Within certain contexts I don't have a choice. Folks know what I do for work and can judge me accordingly but when it comes to my love life, or lack thereof some days, what I do is ultimately no one's business but my own. Still watching, not proud of myself, would love some chocolate or an emapanada or both.
