Love you, your new found attitude is great ! luv your support and care for Bethany, now we are seeing real relationships. Ya Alex too!

So tell me, why would you keep dating someone you have no intention of getting serious with? And how do you go about that?

Serious doesn't mean marriage, you know. It could mean exclusive.

You are right, women decide if they like the man!

You are MY FAVORITE<3

I agree with you 110% on dating. Too many times we are so desparate to be with someone that we settle for less and regret a whole lifetime. Women have come a long way,but we just can't get it right when it comes to men. Date as much as possible and you will know who will be right for marriage. Men love the chase!

Hey Ramona,
So how many squats do you do a day to keep your legs toned? When will we be able to check out your new skin care line?

Ramona you were an inspiration tonight...i wasn't too keen last season, i was worried that you were a bit over the top but BOY, you are so very clever and can see right through the others. Kelly was rude and disrespectful to you when you were so friendly and sweet to go and see her ride. i have been in that situation many time, a new friend and you make lots of effort and they don't even seem to see you. i felt for you when she walked right by and then the rude cow went and told you , 'wait a minute' AND THEN....she didn't introduce you to the man that came over after the riding....she onviously doesn't see what a chance of a good friend she would have in you. You looked sensational too in the shorts and gold wedges. Simon and Alex are vry funny, but i admire you for sticking by what you believe in when you tell jill you don't want to be around them. You are my fave at the moment and i think you wold be kind and sweet to any one, you are not a snob but very down to earth and your husband is very cute, you deserve him.

I understand that some people just don't mix. Get over Jill, and let her be who she is, and enjoy her energy, or keep it to yourself.

When does your beauty secrets book come out?? You look amazing and I want to know how you do it!!

Ramona-

You're wild and crazy with no reservations and not taken as seriously as people should give you credit for. You should, though, judge less and take more into the fact that with flaws, for most people, come an equal amount of love. Think about the undoing gift given to all of us at birth, called opinion, once given and absorbed, the after effects could either cause, or undo someone's self esteem or sense of self preservation. (Stop being so judgemental)
You're gorgeous and successful, what don't you have?? Be NICE!!

I also wanted to add - I love the dynamic between you and Mario. Your relationship is so open and loving, just like that between real friends.

I know you may come off a bit eccentric but I find your advice for the independent woman to be very true and insightful. I remember what you told Avery about making your own money from Season 1 and I was so impressed by you. You are instilling life lessons in your daughter. Just from the show, you can tell Avery is wise beyond her years and very observative (which I'm sure is why she reigns in your wardrobe choices - haha!) Your advice on a woman's attitude and manhandling are also very true.

Can you please buy some class... or borrow some from Luanne...

Less is More...

Ramona is ridiculous! She needs to insert her foot in her mouth on the daily. I cannot believe that there are people out there that act like she does. I honestly don't know how the other girls put up with her or her husband at that!

No-you still need medication. Why do you feel the need to talk about everyone all the time? You don't like Alex and Simon. We aren't stupid. We got the point last season. Do you think you can move on? We know you are in competition with Jill. We aren't stupid. Again, we understood this last season. I know I'm repeating myself but since that seems to be how you communicate - I'm hoping this might get through.

I love the comment you made about a woman’s attitude and attracting a man. You can be the most physically attractive woman in the world and because of your attitude, not be able to maintain the interest of a man. Wonderful advice and I know you will teach your daughter that. I love how you yourself take your advice to heart, and you don’t define yourself through a man or where you stand society. I wish you the best and look forward to watching you this season.

So far so good Ramona...and yes i do agree with your comments on dating...good advice. I also agree with you on Slimey Simon....that guy just makes my skin crawl!!!

Romana I love you. I love that your independent! I love when you stand up to jill! I wish I have that ability to stand up to people like you do! you go girl!

Hey Ramona! You are my favorite housewife. You are the prettiest and the most fun!

I like ramona the best she has a very positive out look on life she's fun and her and her husband seem to be real people that are not stuffy

ramona i have to agree with the other posts. you are different this year from last year. i think we all understand your "eye rolling" when it comes to simon as we all feel the same way. you have had some good positive points for avery this season and its nice to see a new side of you to what was protrayed last season.

Ramona - we're bored to tears hearing about LuAnn's background. What is yours?

I have to admit i was not ur fan season 1 but now i see where you are coming frm. simon and alex are very much annoying. when i watch them i laugh. also the chat with your daughter about jill and simons fight was very mature and correct. and u bringing the lizard to the dog birthday showed ur not not such a girly girl.

I think you are a little obsessed with Jill. So much of your blog is devoted to bad mouthing her, all be it in subtle ways. A lot of your attention on the show is focused on criticizing her as well. Regardless of what Jill's flaws may be I don't think she spends a fraction of the time focused on you that you spend on her. I think Jill is a very genuine person, a little pushy yes, but she doesn't try to be someone she is not and you should respect her for that. I think you are trying very hard to restrain yourself this season- which is a very good thing but your contempt for Jill is not becoming. If you actually want to set a good example for Avery don't spend so much time looking for peoples flaws.

Ramona sorry this about AXS you are right I am starting to feel sick when I see them , also dont you all see that they are using you all to creep up , you all are inviting them to meet your frinds ! and on it go s an other one you are all are playing into the plan, belive me I am from ENGLAND and HAMPTONS you all are moving them up whot rock did they come out off? MY DEAR WITH OUT SAYING TO MUCH ??????????????.

Ramona, I am seeing a calmer, gentler Ramona this season. Enjoyed the lunchtime "manhandling" tips for Betthanny. They were very smart, and the kind of thing that a mother tells her daughter, because she knows it will carry her far in life. You and Jill really know how to pick good husbands. Even though you are to be commended for your own individual successes, you can see that career is not all a woman needs in order to be happy. I think S-1 may have gotten you off to a faulty start with Alex and Simon. They are in a different place than you are, and just a little different in-general. Maybe it seems like they are just status-seeking for the sake of status-seeking. I watch the show because the NYC housewives actually do charity, and seem to have a sense of duty to a higher cause---more than self-adornment, that is. Maybe you, Betthanny, Jill, and The Countess could find a way to draw Alex and Simon out more about where their interests lie in the area of charities. They gave money to Jill's charity, I noticed.

Ramona you are a very self-absorded individual. How is it that you want to talk about Simon and Alex with such negative energy but you feel justified in how you act? You are so jealous of Jill that it's crazy . What you need to understand is that Alex and Simon have a relationship that is good for them, to call it a sham is really tacky of you. Just because your relationship is different doen't mean their's is the problem, maybe yours is. You act like an attention starved freak when out in public with the girls, and at least Alex's looks are natural and not bought for. So, try to be classy(like the New York socialites you try so hard to fit in with).

Ramona,
I love your sunburst necklace you've been wearing. Where did you get it?

Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Do you have to be so mean? Your not going to agree with what others think or feel all the time, just because they seem different than you, does not mean you should put them down, talk badly about them, and it makes you look like a snot.(Try to be nice).

Perhaps you don't have a strong desire to be best friends with Alex and Simon.... but why do you have to be so mean? They seem like nice people who just choose to live a little differently than you and your husband. You are the one with the negative energy when it comes to this subject... they actually seem to be pretty proactive and positive. Live and let live girl! best...

I wanted to compliment you on the way you handled that waitress spilling a cocktail
on you when you went for drinks with your husband. You handled it with grace and good humor. I'm not sure "The Countess" would have been so forgiving. Or Jill. (I can hear her
saying, "what are you a moron?" as she addressed you last season) And Bethany would have probably freaked out. And Alex would have certainly told her how much the dress
had cost and acted condescending. And Simon who would have been with her, would
have said, "Did you know you just spilled on a Cavali?"

I find it ironic that you were condemning Jill for speaking out against Simon in the Post but you seem to find it acceptable to dis him on television. Hmmm, it seems to me that Bravo TV probably has a bigger circulation that the Post. Ramona, come back down to earth. You think wayyy too much of yourself.

Hi Ramona,

I am getting you this season more than S-1. Your eye rolling is hilarious (whenever you hear Simon's name). I feel your pain. I agree with your decision to steer clear of Alex and her creepy wife Simone. They emit negative energy. Aside from that, they aren't even remotely interesting. They talk endlessly about themselves and their little urchins and their desires. Who cares?

I loved the scene you had with Bethenny at lunch. It was hysterical. You certainly have many facets that are just now being revealed. btw: Jill is a bit of a busybody. But I think she means no harm. It's just her way. You handled her inquisition the way I would have - by repeating your single statement "She seemed nice"... Stay strong!

Ramona,
You are in such good shape and I look at you as a "Role Model" for aging beautifully and gracefully. Can you give me some of you diet, fitness, and make-up secrets? How do you apply your eye make-up?

I agree with some of the other comments that Ramona was OFF THE WALL last season. But despite the histrionics and the kind of ditzy Barbie image, for some reason I never minded Ramona that much. I think she's very true to herself, and is intelligent enough to see "Silex" for what they are.

One thing that did bother me last season, was Ramona pushing the whole acting thing on Avery, when she clearly wasn't into it that much. I hope that's passed over; and Avery is AWESOME.

Ramona- I agree why waste your time with Alex/Simon. Life is too short One minutes it is passover and the next it is Yom kippur as Jill's mom says. Bravo!

I totally agree that Jill was being was to pushy asking you all those questions about Kelly. I think Jill is just jealous that Kelly is young, a model, a socialite, and single. I mean I love Jill and all but she needs to stop obsessing over people. On another subject, I would really like to lose about 30 pounds. I exercise regularly and try to eat healthy but the thing that kills me is carbs. I can't seem to stop eating loads of them. Everyday I tell myself that this is the day I'm going to start eating really healthy, but it never works. How do you do it?

Ramona,

I have to say last season I really thought you needed medication. You were up and down and up again. I could hardly keep up!

This season you seem to be a lot more calm. And I love your out going nature and the way you stay true to your belief's. I don't blame you for avoiding Simon and Alex. They are way beyond weird. They creep me out from the TV, I couldn't imagine having to deal with them in person. YUCK! So if you need to, just RUN when you see them, you'll get no complaints from me!

Ramona, you are very smart to realize the benefits of weightlifting. Weights are the fountain of youth. Go on girl!!

Ramona,

I love it that you took the fiasco between Jill and Simon and turned it into a good learning example for your daughter Avery.

Kudos to you for recognizing that moment as such and teaching your daughter. Not many parents take the time to look for those moments, clearly you do!

I'm glad to see you sharing the nicer side of you. I'm looking forward to watching the show and seeing how the interaction between all of you goes!

It's nice to see you trying to stay out of the gossip, but, let up on Alex and Simon. What do you care about how they live/act/dress, etc. You don't have to snub them/be mean to them. Just ignore them and be cordial. It was childish to leave Jill's party just because you saw them coming in. Go about your business of being friends with the rest of the cast and not coming off as a snob/leaving without saying goodbye to your friends.

Ramona,
I like you so much more this year. Last year, you seemed a bit wired. But, you have changed and you find you the most likable this year. Maybe it has to do with our mutual disgust of Alex and Simon. Can you ladies suggest to them that they use all the cash spent on clothes to upgrade that trash pit they live in.

Anyway, your great!

I don't care what anyone says, Ramona, you're awesome! Believe in yourself and keep it up.

Hey Ramona,you looked great in that mag -you were so fit! I really like the manhandling advice you gave because it was practical. How did you and Mario meet?

It's exhausting to watch you constantly try to compete with Jill and put her down. I'm over it.
