    Now I want to eat pizza. Why did you always do this to me...
  2. This pretty much sums up what my feelings are too. And I am shocked that this person wants this nasty conversation to continue in this tone accusatory, doubting and arguing. I said what I said and now plan to completely seize engagement with this topic. But I am happy. Why I am happy - I think the overall reaction was pretty much universal, the right and humane one... and there is only one person arguing and wanting to be right. And only one person deflecting and shifting the focus to places we were never going. I will say this to anyone, reading this- beware excusing rapists. You don't know what would happen if it was your child at Luna's place. That's all I'm going to say.
  3. Thank you. I have had different therapists (mostly because I had a horrible childhood) through the years. I think it forever changed the way I trust people. Now I'm okay with mostly everything... other than when people deny an obvious rape... that's when I really start to feel anxious. TRIGGER WARNING
  4. This is exactly what happened to me by the way. I was not drugged. I was just very drunk and the person decided that they should violate me, when I am not in the form to say NO. This happens to a lot of people. And let me say... something I have never said on the internet - IT TOOK ME YEARS to UNDERSTAND what had happened to me. To completely understand I was raped. Back then I played it off like Luna... and tried to judge myself and tell myself - I shouldn't have drank at all. That's what A LOT OF VICTIMS DO. And it is a rape, 100 percent. To say it isn't is as you say... in the most light way to put it - uninformed. And I want to suggest something to people who are stating this is not a rape - respect our opinion and the law's opinion - something very important was published couple of pages ago and should have ENDED this triggering discussion... And don't continue to ask question after question after question. Why and why and why is he a rapist... This is how a rape-apologists operate and I don't think anyone here is one. AT LEAST I HOPE SO. RAPE APOLOGISTS start asking questions and repeat and repeat and they are never satisfied with WHY IT IS A RAPE. And they always say things like - IT'S gray... or there are details that need to be taken in. I am not saying anyone here is a rape apologist, but I AGREE that they are HARDCORE uninformed. As Donna said it - there is no question if this is a RAPE. It was. IN THE LAW'S EYES IT IS. I actually did my part and called a friend of mine who is an attorney and told him the exact situation - HE CONFIRMED - IT IS A RAPE. And the whole trial question... and putting us on the spot to decide what we would choose if we were a jury... I am sorry, but YOU CAN'T ASK THESE QUESTIONS at this point. At least NOT TO ME. I have never agreed to comment whether a person like Zende should get a life sentence or 2 years or nothing at all. I am not going that route, because it's irresponsible... at least that's what I THINK. We are not a jury and we are not a judge and we don't have all the information to give a verdict in a trial. BUT WE CAN STATE THAT A RAPE IS A RAPE. And people shouldn't be afraid to speak up. I had people in my PMs supporting my point of view, but telling me they don't want to write it here... because they don't want to be asked questions WHY THEY think this... AND DEFEND their point of view. OUR POINT OF VIEW, watching A SOAP OPERA is that THIS WAS A RAPE. DISGUSTING, VILE RAPE. The continuation of this conversation in this matter of repeating the same thing every day... is probably going to trigger some victims, myself included.

    Something real and ... amazing.
  6. I took 1 day internet break... and boy I feel refreshed.
  7. This is something I COMPLETELY agree with and wanted to say, but wasn't understood correctly.
  8. Thank you for having the compassion and knowledge to recognize this. ❤️ You are the best.
  9. itchy skin
  10. " No clique can bully me anywhere. I will never surrender. I am so crazy and stubborn you have never even heard of people like me " MOOD
  11. sailor.
  12. We are born alone and we die alone. That's the simplest truth.
  13. So the consensus after 11 people too the vote - LIAM! This is not a real pic BEWARE
  14. I think KKL gave her best here.
  15. The Doctors is a masterpiece. I have never binge-watched a show like this.

  17. Metaphorically speaking... When someone hits me, I don't hit back - I destroy.
  18. I guess my worst trait is that I give people the benefit of the doubt. In some cases, you really shouldn't.
  19. I don't know what you are talking about. You and me have never had a conversation in which you have asked me a question. What is the question you want answered... ? I have already stated my opinion about what happened was a rape. Zende is a rapist. Bradley Bell made him a rapist. Be mad at him, not at me. And the way you are speaking, the whole aggressive tone and calling me Honey is a little too much. I posted this gif since I didn't want to call you a name... You can guess what name yourself. And yes, I am witty and clever and I am not a rape apologist. So I will never NOT call this a rape. As you see, everyone else here is repeating my opinion. Maybe you need to ask yourself a question, why is it that it's only you that don't see this as a rape. Think about it. And what are these people called? PS - I am a male rape survivor. I was taken advantage years ago by a guy, who I thought was a veeery good friend... we drank together and as soon as I was really out of it... he took advantage and later played it out like I had wanted it... I don't want to go into personal detail about what followed. This traumatized me... my whole life actually and made me stop drinking with people around. Just in very safe situations. So this conversation is VERY TRIGGERING and very disgusting. THIS WAS A RAPE. And everyone here saw it.
  20. Amen. People here have this strange opinion that this season has been amazing... while you can clearly see the consensus online is that this season has been a Snooze-fest. There was even a reddit post that had hundreds of likes and comments that was stating just that - HOW BORING THIS SEASON IS. Someone said they liked how light and how friendly everyone seemed this season... BUT no... I really don't need to see empty episodes of people giggling together or telling each other how great the food is. I don't find this interesting or amusing. I don't watch Housewives to watch FRIENDSHIPS... because these are not real friendships. I come for DRAMA and for interesting dialogue and confrontations. This season lacked ALL of that. I don't know how Andy allowed this to continue... this BORING narrative. Kyle tried to create fake drama and it's the suspense that something may happen like a break-up with her and Mauricio... that keeps people watching. They will probably drag this suspense into next season and as soon as the show starts having a proper storyline, Kyle and Mauricio will REUNITE. Fake crying... all the way.
  21. Has the angel reached the non-background music video period on youtube. If so... is there background music now in videoland... AND MILLION thank to the ANGELS.
