I like Beto and wish he'd win as the men who've been running Texas for the past decades are terrible but sadly he's not the guy or girl that's going to do it. His position on guns is a total deal killer here. Texas isn't like other states. It is its own thing. It's going to take someone who's more moderate and can appeal to a broader voter base. |
Hi Jen ![]() |
I don't think it's your call as to whether or not a photo of a mission trip is a "photo op" or just a cherished memory by the person showing it. |

Point well taken and I am sorry that I sounded so judgemental here. There are many great and loving young people out there doing God's work. Our family has adopted kids from different ethnic backgrounds as well. What I'm talking about is this: I know a Christian family whose college kids ONLY wanted their parents to adopt if the children would be of a visibly different race and had no enthusiasm otherwise . And these were sweet young people who had probably not thought it through
But my main point- don't you think it was weird when Jen announced her relationship with Tyler and all these women started posting photos of their African American guys? Like "I've got one too!" Like they are cars or dresses or shoes. Photo ops are like breathing to narcissists. That being said, I have to examine my motives when I post here. Maybe I cross the line at times from wanting to sound an alarm on someone whom I believe promotes false teaching over to being snarky. I will be more careful in the future, because words do matter. |
I appreciate this. Everything's fine. I have a multi-ethnic family too from infertility and that's one reason I started following Jen. And I could never speculate about Tyler other than her interest seems to be genuine. I do know that I have cultivated friendships with people who are the same ethnicity of my children. I think it's been very helpful. There have been a lot of hurt over the years from people who just say insensitive things. I've try to grow a thick skin. Jen's hucksterism is a whole difference kettle of fish though. Sorry but I call it as I see it. |
"And just like that me camp became we camp"
I'm rolling my eyes and gagging over her most recent post. |
“Look at me, I am traveling alone and it’s the best” “Life is so much better when I am not alone” |
Todays post hits this strange note of her suggesting she’s found this “easy love” because she did all the hard work and was ok with being alone before he came along. Ah, there’s some pretty lengthy online evidence she was far from comfortable alone and heavily longed to have someone to offset the agony of seeing Brandon happily in love with his nurse girlfriend. She operates in a sort of delusional space. Wonder how all the single divorce’ followers feel who have been alone many years not Jen’s whopping year and a half before finding, “the one”?
Not to sound cynical but I wonder how much Tyler chips in towards their travels together. FB photos of his apartment suggests he doesn’t have a lot of capitol. How is he generating income as a influencer/author? I sure hope she’s not floating him a bunch just so she can have someone. Those last few years of her being the main breadwinner with Brandon were not good for anyone. |
I’m in year four after a horrific divorce (abuse/addiction). I am still single and doing a lot of healing and work.
I think it’s great if Jen has partnered up- no jealousy here- but definitely some quiet eye rolls and smirks at her telling anyone anything about “being alone” when she made it about a minute single. I find her rush to department sad and ultimately very very shortsighted. It might have been fun to see her doing something more non traditional than finding a token African American to beard for. |
Brandon, Post Divorce Romantic Life: 1
Jen, Post Divorce Romantic Life: 0 Brandon coupled up. Jen, down. And this is not a slam on Tyler. It’s just based on obvious chemistry and comparability. Texas Barbie is hot, has a job equal to her mate, and they look super happy together. Jen is coupled with an obvious gay man who has 1/10 the following as he does. And they are an odd looking couple. |
My best guy friend in grad school was a gay sex addict on the down low. He’d date very attractive successful women who had no idea about his anonymous hook ups, often with married Christian men. Sooo….
I get it about how much fun it is to hang with a down lower with a great sense of humor, fabulous sense of style related to women’s fashions (Tyler used to be a women’s dresser🤨) full of love for life, passion for the arts and no kids to take away any of his attention. But this dude is late forties never married, wears a uniform of his own graphic tees with a bandana on his head daily, and he has a deep need to be heard. His videos are some of the most performative, self conscious cringe fests ever, and they just keep on coming. It’s easy to see why he’s interested in Jen: exposure to half million new followers, podcasts with big names like Abby and Glennon, free trips to fancy resorts and lakeside locals, and a desperate white woman who love bombs him online which is free advertising for his Tyler merit project. |
I thought Big Sis would find some local but established 50 year old professional divorcee on the upswing. Someone stable, not interested in fame, who can pull his own weight. |
