Meri’s friend seemed awkwardly inserted during the season but she was pure gold last night. The continuity of thought shows the truth of what everyone but Kody and Robyn see.
Robyn is in the craziest loop I’ve ever seen of centering herself in every situation. She centers herself in the break up conversation to the point that Meri has to ask her to hush, and she walks off sobbing. Then when it’s played back she centers herself again with a ridiculous show of emotion- not for Meri but again for her own feelings. I don’t know how anyone could maintain a relationship with her. I’m surprised that someone so self focused would ever have thought plural marriage would work for her. But then she doesn’t see other’s viewpoints so again…a ridiculous Robyn loop.
Janelle always has the wisdom. Last night’s nugget for me was her recognizing that Kody and Robyn were older and more mature and took time to know one another rather than rushing in as she and Christine did.
Super glad to know that it hasn’t been all “beer and skittles” for Kody.
If he could just admit that he messed this up, then maybe I could give him some empathy. Maybe if he could say something like, “I should have realized that a 4th wife when two marriages were already in trouble was a bad idea. I should have recognized that 19 kids was unsustainable for one father. I should not have posted up with the new honeymoon phase wife and ignored the others.” He however just continues to blame others.
