Baseless Accusations: Season Finale

Long awaited season finale review:

Recap:

Jen decides to stay with Eric. She claims to love him. And you know what, I’ll actually give her a pass on this. When I saw it, I involuntarily rolled my eyes, you know… “*itch please” type of thing. But let’s pretend that she does love him, he doesn’t love her in return. One person can not make a relationship work. Jen doesn’t trust him, he doesn’t appear fully committed, hell, he won’t even play the game. All this to stay married? Is it that serious? Eric pretty much acts as if he could care LESS. It’s not to say that Jen is perfect. There is clearly some resentment and attitude present when she interacts with him. It really seems like a lost cause. Staying together without changing anything is a recipe for

All this talk about happiness, find your dignity and self worth and move around. I just see there being more hell later. Not to mention, there is no spiritual basis here. So if he can’t be faithful to Jen based on the vows he took, though according to her, he was cheating then, and he doesn’t answer to a higher spiritual being that would require him to honor his wife and love her like the Lord loves the church, then what is going to stop him from continuously treating her like shit? I’m just saying… I definitely think Eric is dealing with some other issues. I mean he’s not exactly attractive and he’s an asshole, so without good looks and personality he has to validate himself by sleeping with women who want to be around him because of his “celebrity” (connections). It’s a sad situation really. All around. Let’s hope they don’t bring children into this madness.

 

Suzie continues to be in the midst of the madness/drama. It’s safe to say she’s been the culprit behind all of these surprise meet-ups: Evelyn and Vanessa Davis, the “Groupie” and Jen. She met up with Gloria and the two of them engaged in fake conversation, shared fake apologies, and gave fake hugs. Y’all are not friends. It defeats the point if you smile in Gloria’s face and then talk about her later…she’s going to see the video. DUH! Then Suzie invites Gloria out and hoodwinks Royce. I’m glad Royce set her straight letting her know she’d better not pull that ish again. Unfortunately, she will. So, I think I speak for the masses when I say to Suzie

HOE SIT DOWN!! 

:random rant: Suzie is not the voice of reason, she is NOT checking for any of the females there and she likes to be in mess. Suzie’s not going to keep it real, she’s the “friend” that’s going to steer them in the wrong direction if they actually take her advice. Actually she’s about as much a “friend” as she is a “wife.”

Shaunie confronts Gloria, and you know what? She actually has a valid point. If she felt she and Gloria were close friends and Gloria felt the same, all of this talk about being “ride or die” for her family is a joke. Not to say throw your sister under the bus, but don’t be smiling in Shaunie’s face if your sister is knocking down her husband. I also would like to point out that no one is denying these allegations, so…we can assume that something happened. How hard is it to squash this mess, especially if it’s not true? Come on. She did it. I think they need to move beyond the madness. Gloria is not exactly the person that you want on your team, she’s very fickle.

 

 

 

 

 

Royce & Gloria reconfirm that they don’t like each other through this pre-arranged meeting Messy Suzie sets up. Royce is right in being done with Gloria because her position was one where she was speaking well of Gloria and Gloria was going behind her back talking shit. And not because Royce had done anything to her, but because of what her profession was. It’s amazing to me that Gloria will apologize to Suzie, hug her, and call herself cool with her and when Suzie does NOT like her. Fool. The one chic who was actually checking for Gloria she gets into it with. Then Gloria tries to go hard at Royce like “You’ll never be a wifey.”

Let’s be clear. Gloria is not even married. Her and her baby daddy are just still together. If your kids are at least 15 months, and you were pregnant all 40 weeks, that means y’all have had at LEAST 2 years to get married and you’re still a fiancée' and probably only that because you have his kids. So, you’re throwing jabs at Royce saying she won’t be a wife… well, let’s break down what that really means. That means she won’t be sitting in any of their chairs, weeping because she’s in a loveless marriage or because she’s been cheated on and because females are “coming at her husband.” Seriously? That’s some ignorant shit to say. ONE, she’s Dwight Howard’s baby mama, the reality is…she’s never gon’ be doing THAT bad. Two, Royce knows what it' means to work, to have a dream and follow it, while Gloria is doing the same thing her other counterparts did when they thought their marriage/relationships were good: NOTHING. She’s sitting home, with what I presume to be no education, and if/when it ends, she’ll have nothing to show for herself but wasted years and as many children as she decides to pump out for this dude. She’s an idiot. There. I said it.

Trust in your man… that’s cool, but to assume everyone wants to be in your position, is naive and juvenile. 10 years. Let’s see where Gloria is in ten years. That’s all I’m saying. She’s quick to pop off at the mouth and she needs to learn to shut up and let the situation speak for itself.

  Evelyn weeps again about the love SHE supposedly walked away from by choice. I really want her to check herself into some counseling and handle her issue. I’m not being facetious either. I understand it was 10 years. But it doesn’t take that long for a man to decide he wants to be with you. She gave up her youth (in a sense) to be with him and for what? Just to be back at square one and damaged goods later? It’s not worth it. She definitely needs to take some time out to get over it, get to a place where she can hear his name or have a conversation about him and not burst into tears. Also, let me address some nonsense she said. She went off on Gloria because she knows what it’s like to “have to deal with bitches everyday.” These are her words. Well, you weren’t in a relationship with these females, you were in a relationship with Antoine. These females don’t owe you anything, these females didn’t say they would be good and faithful to you, ANTOINE did. So under no circumstance should she have been taking her issue up with them anyway. Ass backwards.

Ladies…if you’ve been in a relationship with someone over five years and you WANT to be married and it’s still being put off because he’s “not ready,” “money’s not right,” “wants to finish school,” or any variation. Move around. Grow together. If you’re good enough to be with for 5 or 10 years (and you want to be married) you’re good enough to marry. Don’t play the game. You’ll lose every time.

Final point, if your man is cheating…move around. There has to be some consequence for his actions or it will become routine in y’all’s relationship. It’s not worth it.

BTW…a new season of Basketball Wives will return in the fall.

This has been Baseless Accusations, as always, I look forward to your feedback. If you’ve missed an episode check out VH1 online.
