Lea's Over the Haters

Lea feels she is constantly being maligned by some of the other ladies.

By Lea Black

Contrived Hot Air

The bus that's running over me this week is leaking hot air, not water.

This week’s episode sort of personifies the season so far. Joanna and Romain are willing to face their challenges head on and fight for their relationship. Joanna makes a gorgeous brunette, by the way. Do I see a Pretty Woman sequel? Loved her costume and her spunk!

[video_clip_url:http://player.theplatform.com/p/PHSl-B/yT7k3t_YLXoZ/embed/select/owS_zjybjBVN]Adriana still takes no responsibility for anything, she blames Frederic for the non-wedding marriage and even blames me for her problems with Joanna. Joanna is the bigger person once again -- she decides to call for peace with Adriana, and if I recall everything that has happened up until now was Adriana’s doing: the slap, ugly tweets, and lies. The only thing Joanna ever did was stand up for Karent and defend herself against nasty name calling. Adriana is only an hour late to the peace invitation, guess it’s better than making it to the alter five years after being married, LOL! She clings to her story of not being married and tries to burn a past that speaks louder than her denial. I would have preferred she donated the wedding dress to charity and burned her bridge with the hate gang.[video_clip_url:http://player.theplatform.com/p/PHSl-B/yT7k3t_YLXoZ/embed/select/WSITmWz3NfpH]The haters never miss an opportunity to try to make me look uncaring or lie about me. Hopefully the next few episodes will reveal the truth about me reaching out many times to my friend when she fell ill. Alexia never misses an opportunity to throw me under the bus, perpetrate a lie about me, or try to make me look bad. She could of course ask me for my side of a story…but then how could she justify her comments and keep the haters happy? It is all behind my back of course -- to my face she is always lovely and "never allows anyone to ever say anything bad about me" -- because she "loves me and we are friends." Should I keep letting her get away with it or stand up for myself?

Lisa keeps peace with everyone, is the life of the party, and takes good care of Lenny, who couldn't possibly be any cuter. I love how he always has a smile on his face, even when in pain.

And Romain is the consummate gentleman.

And even when I'm not in an episode, I'm in it! LOL!Spread the love, keep the peace, and I hope you will comment below.
Love, Lea
