Around in Circles

Melissa tells us about her recent trip to LA and shares her thoughts on the talk with Teresa.

Jun 29, 2011

Did you see my little girl ballroom dance? I was really proud of her! She practiced really hard for that show and did such a great job. She really knows how to shake it! Sometimes I can't believe the way I see her move around the house. It really does come naturally to her, and she's just got it! I love her so much! 

Something about watching your child perform in front of a huge group of people makes me very proud that she is so confident and had the guts to do it. She was the youngest one there! There were about thirty acts that night, once again you only saw the older people who went, who by the way, were also so good! But there were many other children there performing from ages 8-16 and then there were the adults. It was such a great show! That's an incredible dance school.

Also, did you see how happy my husband was with his mother? Ah, this is what I like! No tension, just good family times. So happy she came and got to watch her granddaughter! Joe was so happy she was there, we all danced for hours! Joe was beaming with happiness. It was all over his face, and I felt the same. This is all we ever want! Love this! My mother, my sister, and Kathy's family all came to support Antonia, and it was such a great and memorable night! We all laughed together and had an incredible night together. I was so happy Antonia got to have both of her grandmothers there on her big night!

oh pleaseee give us a break.. one blog where your not bashing theresa is not gonna change the viewers mind about you! You are still self-centered and manipulative..only now you realize that half of america cant stand you and wants you off the show!

It sounded like Teresa was trying to make amends, but you wanted to keep going with the drama. Women have lots of influence over their men and you should use that influence to bring Teresa and her brother back together, not stoke the fire. True forgiviness is the key on both sides.

Melissa,

You are so sweet, love watching you with your children, husband, and family!

Interesting how you skipped over the conversation with Lysa completely.

You can't be serious here - you roll your eyes when you're thinking? OMG this is the lamest excuse I have EVER heard!! You know you're getting called out on Teresa's blog so you bring it up here? Is this why you wait to post your blog last as well, read everyone else's and then comment? All I have to say is: LIAR!!! You've done it in other circumstances and it's been because of Teresa so please don't take us for fools!!

It's clear that you are trying to save face after all that has been written about you after the episode. You think with your eyes??!!! Ooookkkk. And there you go twisting things again. As a viewer, I thought Teresa was bringing up the plumber to show that Joe Guidice doesn't discuss with outsiders things about your husband. If he hated him so much, he would have had his name all over the place. That's what she was trying to say. And you said in your interview that he could have paid the bills for him because you all are family and Teresa's shoes are more expensive than the plumber bill. Really??? Then hey family, why don't you pay some of their bills then. After all you're family. I really hope you open your eyes and see the destruction you are causing. Not saying Teresa is innocent in any of this, but at least she admitted it. You have yet to admit to anything. And dogging your mother-in-law with Kathy? so not nice. Take a long hard look at yourself before you keep casting stones.

Sorry babe! don't believe you with that thing about you "thinking with [your] eyes" bit. The rolling is just indicative of not listening--period. Your negative body language was speaking louder in that episode than you realize. Get real. You are not innocent.

Do yourself and your husband's family a favor and go get some professional help as to why you subconsciously want the discord. Maybe then you grow up, take responsibility for your share of the discord and your share of fence mending. You should be thankful you are not caught up in this economic downturn like others are. Stop with the bad mouthing about your sister-in-law and her huband's financial problems. What goes around comes around.

You think with your eyes?!? Really? No wonder you and Teresa haven't gotten along, she thinks you are being a smartass rolling your eyes at her all the time, and you were really just thinking!!! Wow! And if I were you I wouldn't mention the trashy behavior of you and your sister running Teresa in the dirt when you just got back from a meeting and agreed to make things positive and show love, I that's how you show love, talking crap behind Teresa's back!!

Melissa - it doesnt seem like you roll your eyes. you do roll your eyes when talking to Teresa...If you do something own it. You say one thing on your blogs, but your actions and interviews on the show are completely opposite. You come across very caddy and envious of Teresa with no compassion for her situation that going on at the time.

I think Teresa met you more than half way, what happened at the christening was precipitated by you and your husband. Teresa offered an opportunity to start fresh and you were resistant in the meeting and the later conversation with your sister disappointing. The most puzzling thing was you being upset that Teresa expressed your sentiments. For most people that would be a win, everyone is in agreement, but somehow that was offensive to you? weird.

ohh yeahh.. and I think with my middle finger. not buying it!

Why do you and your sisters hate Teresa? She is trying very hard and meeting you way more than half way. Also why the digs at Teresa's parents?

Melissa, Does your sister roll her eyes when she is thinking and talking also?????????

You think with your eyes. That has to be the most ridiculous excuse ever used on Housewives. A real first.So how's the "Teresa bashing" going for you and Kathy? You don't sing well ,you are the "oddity" of the moment. Have you met Danielle and Camille you have a common bond, reality escapes you.

Oh Melissa,

You are fake, fake, fake! Crazy, manipulative, and sooooo unkind. You really should be ashamed of your behavior in this episode. I'd hope for you to change, but you are a big girl and you should already know better by now... so maybe its too late for you. Its obviously too late for your sisters!

Melissa, I find it interesting that you had something positive to say about everyone on the Catskills trip except Teresa. It's clear you do not want to make peace with her. You and your husband accused her of ignoring you, but then you go and admit that you "ran" away. Which is it??????? You completely contradict yourself. And it's creepy because it's clear both you and Kathy clearly came on the show to hijack teresa's life. How sad.

Doesn't matter what you say, your a no talent loser!!!

you make me sick cause your so fake! you have your husband wraped around your fingure and he cant see the truth. The only time you're rolling your eyes is when you talk about Teresa and her family...is that the only time you think? Even after your talk, you were talking crap about her w your sister! Talking about her money issues is rude! Guess that goes back to how you were raised!

Thinking with your eyes? Yes, that's what the eye roll means, it means you could care less. If that truly was not your intention then you might want to learn a little bit about body language so you can try to fake more people out with your real feelings. Right now you just appear to be a walking contradiction.

What about your comments in your talking head, after the sit down..What about your ,and your sisters comments at your home?? Sorry, Teresa has been saying all along about ending this and moving on and wanting to be family again...You have said something like that, but then contradict your self with words or actions.. Sorry I have no respect for you, your huband or Kathy for doing this show with all this family drama, to hurt and disrespect Teresa and her parents..

You think with your eyes and that explains why you roll them? HAHA...still rude. You seem to have an answer for everything!

okay melissa, it was really nice watching your husband with his mother and your daughter's dance show was really nice. i liked that you and theresa talked but i felt that you were soo not into that conversation. yeah you say you think with your eyes, but come on! seriously! i really like you, i do, but then on your interviews, you were bad mouthing the whole situation. it seems that you do that alot with your situation with Theresa and there was no reason why you had to bring up Kathy into that conversation. That's a whole different topic, focus on the relationship with your family and Theresa's. And don't you think that your sister might be a little hater too. I'm just saying.

NICE TRY YOURE STILL A FAKE BITCH THAT CANT SING.YOURE A FAME WHORE.GET A LIFE

I don't know why I am bothering to write this because not one of my comments about Melissa have ever been posted, but here we go one more time..... Melissa the only thing that your annoying eye rolling proved was that you were thinking you really did not want to be there talking with Teresa. The viewers are not stupid and we could tell you had a bad attitude right from the start the second you walked in. Also the way you talked about the situation with one of your mean sisters after the meeting with Teresa just proved that you are full of it! You do not want peace in the family, you love the attention you get for stirring the pot. Grow up already and quit whining about how bad you think your husbands family treats you!

Hi Melissa , when you show doubt and talk negatively with your sisters it makes you look bad. Just be a good person and expect the best ... if you don't get it then whatever, don't take it so hard because that will make it a struggle. You add to the struggle. Be positive and be kind whether in front of Teresa or behind her back. Then you can feel good knowing you haven't done anything wrong and you have no regrets that way. That is how you be the bigger person. Teresa has her own issues as much as I do love her there's a lot to learn here overall, but that is usually the case when there is tension - both sides have learning and growing and the sooner someone figures that out the better. Move on, enjoy life - without judgement and without assumptions. Ignore the digs - and do it with a smile.

OMG, is that it? You are running....running....from the issues. I cannot wait until the reunion show. You have some questions to answer. Why do you never take responsibility for your wrong in this family drama? I cannot stand you and hope you will not be back year. As all of the fans have stated you were jealous of Theresa's fame with the show and you wanted a part of that fame. It is so very clear to all of us....wow...I feel so sorry for Theresa.

Melissa, you dont think with your eyes...you have a different set of EYES for Teresa and her husband and another set for your husband. Replay dear! Replay! Dinner w/the Hiza's ..Gia's meet...explaining to your husband how you feel....talking to Teresa....PA"LEEZ!!! I don not believe it is Teresa controlling the family..HER family. It is you with your insecurities and competitive wanna be attitude. Listen to yourself. Try to look within your body language, your tone, and UUUURGH! the words you use! lets have some class? manners? i am sincerely turned off by this entire battle and listening to your VOICE on this show. You have a nice SINGING voice. But how you behave and what you say and how you sound :UGLY" - getting bored with seeing you.

MELISSA STOP BLOGGING LAST EVERY WEEK, WE ALL HAVE NOTICED IT. Melissa no one is buying your eye rolling story. You are rude and a fame whore. Take a few singing lessons, you are an average singer based on your closet debut. I am not hating on you, just being real. Also, tired of seeing Lysa every week; Is she auditioning for next season. "Bravo", Please bring back the lovely Dina and get rid of Messy Melissa her silly sisters and scary Kathy.

YOURE SO BORING.GET OFF THE SHOW. YOURE HUSBAND IS A MORON.GROW UP. YOURE SISTERS ARE BITCHES/WITCHES.THEY ARE SO UGLY

Love you Melissa! I hope you're prepared for the nasty comments but don't let them get to you. It should make you feel very good that the people who claim to hate you were waiting for your blog with baited breath. They watch the show every week and they will click all three of those links to see your interviews. LOL!!! They know they love you. The media loves you, Kathy loves you, Caroline loves you, Jacqueline loves you, and you'll win the fans over too! Congrats on all your success.

xoxo

I think its pathetic that you use Teresa as a connection to get on the show. You are so fake & you just want fame & attention. You're just another Danielle Staub!

booooooooring. you never post your blogs on time and then when you do, you beat around the bush and talk about your publicity tour. i'd much rather read about how you truly feel, which is what i thought blogs were for. none the less, i hope by watching yourself on television, you see how ridiculous this whole feud is. like you say, "family is everything." what i say is, a little less talk and a lot more action. suck it up for the sake of your family and if that means biting your tongue, so be it. i think teresa has apologized too many times and you have responded by "thinking with your eyes" too many times. just knock it off and act like adults!

Melissa, Im so glad you and Teresa are trying to work things out. Me and my husbands family didnt get along until my 4 yr old was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2010. Sad it took that to get us back together. - Amber

You had 4 days and this is all that you can come up with!!!! You keep saying "we" need to fix things and YOU are the only one that's NOT trying. We all see right through your lies and manipulation. Save that manipulation for your husbancd - he's the only one that believes you. After your meeting with Theresa, you continued to bad-talk her to your sisters, you continued to take jabs about her financial situation and you continued to dangle her brother like a dog bone: saying that Theresa better act right or she's not gonna have her brother. YOU ARE SO UGLY!!!!! YOU ARE DANGEROUS!!!! AND YOU ARE SO JEALOUS of Theresa. Oh, and I have news for you honey... You are NO Beyonce!!! You have to be liked in order to have a successful music career. Antoher thing, I am sooooo glad that this show is already filmed so you could not go back and try to change your NASTY ways after you saw yourself. BITCH!

um...you are not a nice person. It galls me that you throw around the word fake when you are the epitome of that word. And your sisters? Ugh. I now dvr RHONJ. When you, your sisters or Kathy come on the screen, i fast forward. Useless, all of you. Theresa never brought up family drama on the show. You show up and all of your dirty laundry is aired for the world. Shameful! If its all about family, you wouldve kept that to yourselves. I feel like you told bravo you could cause the drama and thats why you are there. Once the drama is settled, you have no storyline. Also, the comment "we pay for our things" made me laugh as a quick google search revealed a TON of liens against you guys for NON-PAYMENT. "Plumbers unhappy is common". What planet do you live on?

Melissa, rolling your eye is rude. PERIOD! no excuses. Be an adult and grow up. And you wonder why your mother in law and sister in law don't like talking to you.

Melissa, Glad you had a great time in LA, it is a very happening place, sort of like NY. So happy to see your husband enjoying the time with his mother, it looked like they both had a great time. Now on to your talk with Theresa, it is amazing how it bothered you that Theresa brought up your husbands business, yet two weeks ago at the dinner with the accountant you did the same thing. Thank god your husband put a stop to it that night. Also, I do not think you are ready to move on, you are a very confrontational individual, your conversation with your sister proved that. If you really mean what you say your actions would prove it, however, every time you are with your sisters and Kathie all you talk about are the Guidice's, is there any other story line for you. I have watched RHONJ since season one and I do think that if it continues along the line it is going, this will be my last season. Way tooooo much empasis on being vindictive this season. Hopefully, you will realize your mistakes and own up to your (and your sisters) part in all this.

Of course you would have preferred your mother in law did not come so that you could have one more story to feed into Joe's head.

I am glad you girls had your talk family is family no matter how much you love or hate one another!!! I have been watching Jersey housewives since they first aired!!! Teresa has always been a family person since I first started watching the show she hasnt changed one bit!!! No matter what Melissa and Joe has said about Teresa she has said nothing but nice things about them and about how she just wants her family back and to get along!! Seems like Teresa's trying to make everything work when she's the one whose really owed an apology!! Hope everything works out

You talked about how Tre doesn't have money for a nanny. Please remember, she hasn't always been in a financial bind and I know you know that seeing as though how hard you strived to be exactly like her. Even when she had it she didn't have a nanny and no other help. So, you have two nanny's you really aren't the SUPERWOMAN you seem to think you are. Although, we didn't hear you call yourself superwoman until after the "Super T" episode! And as far as her mother babysitting, your problem with that would be?? I really wish I could like you but I can't and I don't.!! I hope you do not come back for another season!

More than anything, what says that most about you is your spotless home, your beautifully healthy & well dressed children & the fact that you gave your daughter your mother-in-laws first name. As an Italian, this tells me you are an honourable woman. Teresa comes across as an excellent mother to her children as well. Perhaps this is your common ground above all else.

Melissa....are you kidding? In your blog you say and I quote, "Hopefully it stops here! I do want to tell everyone that it might seem like I roll my eyes a lot, but that is not because I don't want to listen to her, it's because I'm thinking. I think with my eyes," If you want it to stop, then quit bashing her!!! This "sit down" happened months ago and you have continued to bash Teresa in the press, on twitter and in your blogs. As far as rolling your eyes and thinking...you said it. You are thinking of what you are going to say next instead of listening to her. GET YOUR STORIES STRAIGHT! The viewers are not stupid. We get you!

Nice, Melissa. Starting your plug already for your "sparkling wine".

Love your blog this week. Trying so hard to like you. Hoping you, Teresa and your husband can put this all behind you!!!

Melissa, You should really be very grateful to your sister-in-law Teresa.. considering that your hatred is being used as the vehicle to promote your singing career.

I sure hope you two can get along... But the viewer can see that you're not going to end the fued... Rolling your eyes mean you're thinking? whoa, that's the first... You said you'll try to make amend... but you didn't... at least Teresa tried... and that's something coming from her which she tend to get furious and flip tables... But she didn't...

It seems you both like to compete... and since Teresa has financial problem... You are loving it... correct me if I'm wrong... but you tend to bring up that they can't afford this and that(babysitter, etc)... it's shows that all you do is brag about yourself... Yes, we know you're living a grand lifestyle... but if you keep on making comments like that... HOW IS IT GOING TO WORK? so all the stuff you told your husband is a lie... you're not trying at all...You make it hard to believe the things you say...

Get over yourself and make peace... I feel bad for your husband not getting along with his sister... (just by watching... Teresa love her lil brother) and for the kids sake... please try... basically, you can end this... but you chose not too... maybe you like the ATTENTION...

Yeah, I totally understand.... I'm rolling my eyes right now just thinking about it. (get a grip, girl)

Melissa,

It's really hard to believe anything you try to say. A re-cap of this episode and your blog from a viewers point... No one thinks with their eyes. Man up to the fact that you were rolling your eyes at Teresa, no one believes you. Face it, you didn't like what she was saying so you felt the need to let her know from your behavior, we all do it. JUST ADMIT IT. Second I will agree with you that it probably wasn't best for Teresa to bring up your financial situation when hers is on thin ice. But do you really think that in a conversation attempting to mend problems that it was really necessary for you to point out her financial misfortune once again. And side note to that, yes her mother may be her nanny but is she really at fault for that. She is in financial turmoil and is trying to pull herself out of it and you sit there and judge her for not being able to afford a nanny. That unbelievably disrespectful. You are flat out rude and I can see right through your act with Jacqueline and Caroline. Leave them alone and stop trying to turn them against your sister-in-law. She needs the same support you get from your sisters. I dont know what your constant issue is but maybe you should just keep quiet and lay low for a while instead of continuously stirring up trouble.

Melissa, Nice try in making amends with your husbands family, glad you are trying to explain the rolling eyes because you look like it is you who keeps it going and your sisters making comments egg it on. Do you really see the episodes? Could you see how happy your husband is around his family? Do you see your kids they know how you feel but they want the cousin relashionships to happen. Your daughter is beautiful and yes she has some moves in dancing well have the best of luck in singing.
