I love Leanne’s accent, I guess just because she seems very real and sincere to me. But even I find myself catching it a little after I’ve been listening to her - and I’m from the Boston area! 😂

Jen's new haircut looks the best it has in years.
Glad Sydney got home safe but too bad Jen posts her texts. And applauds her judging the unhappy couple eating next to her. I don't know, Sydney, maybe they just got some bad news and were trying to have a quiet lunch. For some reason I found that irksome.

Did she ask permission first

Yeah I think 1:1 its prob fine to give a quick opinion of it but then shared with half a million ppl, it comes off braggy or know it all obnoxious. I think the issue is Jen more than Sydney though.

Thank you!! I am going to assume she asked, but it just feels so cringe and gross.

I don't understand why people do this. My BF and I travel a lot- after riding/driving together for 5 hours or spending a week together...its ok to be on your phone and be quiet at lunch. Doesn't mean all the other hours aren't connected.

I am 1000 percent sure that Jen is exponentially snarkier in person than she is online and if Sydney is blasting the people at the next table for how they present during one slice of time, she learned how to do that at home. Also she is young and young people judge for weird stuff based on lack of life experience. It is what it is.

Posting text messages from other people just feels so slimy.

Sydney is an adult and agreed to have the photos posted. Unfortunately like a lot of young adults, they may not fully appreciate how immature and rude they come across online until it’s too late.

I didn't like Jen's "you are so great and the best company!" response- my own mom would've been like, hey, maybe they were having a tough day. Even to adult me.

Why are people obsessed with being happier than other people? Dang Jen get a life.

Would you believe me if I told you that Jen and Tyler will have a promise ceremony this year?

Mark your calendars. They are redefining mature modern relationships and much of this undeserved skepticism about their bond for life will be put to rest.

Don’t play with the T-dawg. As Jen can attest, he knows how to bite.

Maybe he reads here - it’s the only explanation i can think of for why he didn’t post a MS tribute on cue. Unless he did, and I missed it?

Mean girls raise mean girls.

Thinking of all the times I’ve had sad dinners: after breakups, after putting my mom in hospice, finding out my dad died, after having to put my dog to sleep, when my baby was admitted to ICU. The kindness of strangers goes a long way, but all Jen did was praise her for a selfish comment about how great her own company is. I get that she’s young but l do hope kindness finds her in the moments she may need it. She just came off as sounding harsh - just like her mom.

I wondered where on Earth she was going with this. She has been seeing a man for a couple of years or more whose main public declaration of enduring affection was that he wanted to "eat her meat". I mean, I know she's done such a brave job "deconstructing purity culture" and all, but going from no premarital hanky panky to allowing a guy who makes crude public comments reducing you to "meat" to kind of string you along long distance without the dignity that surrounds some type of formal committment seemed sad.

If I got divorced and got a long distance boyfriend, and he said he wanted to "eat my meat" on a public forum, I would not then turn around and have some type of "promise ceremony" with him. He would just be gone. I don't think a "promise ceremony" in and of itself is terrible - people have all kinds of reasons for not wanting a legal entanglement. We have to remember Jen quite possibly was financially exploited by Brandon. But a "Promise Ceremony" after someone made a comment like that about me, on top of a long distance relationship with no apparent plan to ever get to be part of each others daily lives seems performative and not heartfelt.
