But, oddly, seems completely clueless as a brick when it comes to interpersonal communication and reading the room. Isn't that strange? |
I agree she's probably quite naive compared to the other women. She was the only woman married to one man from the time she was a teenager. But also remember the producers gave her a specific edit to perpetuate a certain narrative. Because there was little to no drama in the house, they needed to make the most of what they had! I'm looking forward to seeing what she's like in interviews not crafted by producers. My guess is she's uncomplicated but not a total dope. |

I've watched all the episodes, but have decided I'm "done" with this show.
it isn't the women. It's Gerry. He is like a wet blanket and seems overwhelmed (either overjoyed or completely despondent) about everything. "What a fantastic date!" Or "This is so heavy and breaks my heart." The show isn't bringing me joy. Now, "Paradise," on the other hand, is such a joke as to their sincerity and actual long-term goals. But "Paradise" brings me joy by laughing at these idiots. Ironically, I loved the first few episodes of Golden Bach. It made me happy that these women realized that love isn't "not an option" at age 70. |
If she's a financial advisor, she'd need to have at least some interpersonal skills to keep clients? |
One-on-one professional speak is very different than dating the second man in your life in your 70s, and feeling giddy about it. |

The proficers have not given us much on Theresa. Basically, her crime is liking Gerry a bit too much or a bit to loudly. They haven't helped the audience root for her.
I hope they turn that around in the coming episodes. Make her more than one-dimensional. |
| The producers... |
Her job is "securities professional", which could mean anything. |
Or they’re more comfortable in public, more extroverted? I read about April’s many- years affair with Frankie Valli. You can find a write up about it in the New York Post from a couple of years ago. Joe was a real a-hole. |
| ^^He was, not Joe. Sheesh. |
He and her mother groomed her from childhood. Sick and sad. I'm glad that she seems happy and confident now. |
|
I would but call her happy and confident.
That life must leave its mark. |
True, she could be an executive assistant or customer assistant. Not that there’s anything wrong with it. |
She was a secretary is my guess. Maybe even just a receptionist. |
Nope, financial adviser with multiple certifications: https://www.advisorcheck.com/advisor/3181553-theresa-ann-nist-tfs-securities-inc-lincroft-new-jersey |
