It’s a bit weird that her ex is already remarried and she’s a year deep into a “serious” relationship yet she keeps harping on about her divorce.
I’m relatively young and never been married so maybe I just don’t get it but I would dump any guy that was constantly posting about his previous relationship and I would never do the same to him. If I’m still so traumatized that I feel the need to keep bringing up my past relationship, I’m not ready for a new one. |

He mentioned something to the effect of wondering if he should fight for the marriage and her giving him the "gift" of letting him go...something like that... Life is hard. She's picked her hard and is calling it like it's a dream boat that she's on in her second half of life and has so much to offer in the way of hard earned wisdom and such. Total flake and performative and a complete flip flop of her foundation if you ask me. |

Jen is a trauma expert whos suffered the worlds worst personal loss and who’s “done all the work” my ass!!
Unreal the tone deftness and arrogance if these blowhard tryhards! The above poster is so right! I personally know of a women who lost a child and a husband in a car crash about 20 years ago and who since has battled and survived cancer and has for about five years been the primary caregiver of both two living children and a sickly Puerto Rican mother who didn’t speak a word of English and who raised the kids to total post college success and who all the whole built a very successful career as an attorney. This is the sort of women I want to learn from when it comes to trauma and healing and “putting the pieces back together”. Not some privileged Z grade influencer with a vast support network who suffered a pretty common divorce. What makes Jen’s trauma so extra spicey? What makes her an expert of recovery? Just because she says she is? That’s a low mark. Cheap and easy and sleazy, the hatmaker way. |

Brandon and Texas Barbie absolutely glowing at the Houston Rodeo. Hand in hand.

Does anyone have any real insight into why Jen is with Tyler? He seems distant in every way and she says she’d love for him to be closer. Did she fall in a love bombing well and now can’t get out? Does she subconsciously feel safer with someone who will never truly commit? Despite his regular touches of passive aggressiveness, they do seem to have a lot of fun when they’re together, which is fun, and not to be crude but sometimes the most unexpected people can have incredible sexual chemistry.
But why is she trying to sell this as some grand forever love story? Is anyone buying that? It seems desparate, shallow and foolish. I know dating as a woman can be especially difficult as you age but this relationship reeks as a trauma attachment. Brandon icks me out, is a cheater and seems like a tool so I’m not saying he’s any better to be clear. |

I think you’re on to something that it’s subconsciously safer for her to be with someone who isn’t really *it* and can keep a shallow relationship going for a long time to keep the charade going that she’s healing and progressing.
People with abandonment issues (who want a partner) tend to date down (so they can always be the one doing the rejecting) avoid dating all together, or date someone like Tyler which is more casual and write a forced script around it that isn’t actually there or happening. And see…someone who has really dealt with their abandonment issues would recognize that in themselves. IMO She’s avoiding healing and pretending to everyone not that she’s healing but is full stop healed with a few glitches here and there. I also agree and think she love bombed Tyler or love bombed the situation and now she’s stuck there. |

| Brandon is trying so hard. His stupid cap wearing. Wear it right bro. You’re not 13. And you’re 50. Those wheels on your truck are so lame. Oh…. And you don’t need a F-250. Get over yourself. |

| 🤔 Facebook > Search: Shannon Albrecht (Nashville) > Tyler’s bestie apparently attended his parents’ 50th anniversary with him; not Jen. Interesting. |

“Life is filled with wonderful moments and tough circumstances. I am learning to find the joy in both.”
Is this her? I don’t want to snark on a non-public figure but have you really been through tough times if you think there’s always joy to be found? Meaning, sure but joy??? Put the love life laugh pillows away for a moment. Unfortunately, I don’t see any post with Tyler so I’ll take you at your word. Maybe I’m too much of a narcissistic insecure B who doesn’t understand mature adult relationships but in what world is it okay to bring your girl friend rather than your girlfriend to your parent 50th anniversary? Does the BFF have an independent relationship with the parents? |

Tyler’s latest post on his book; I don’t want to nitpick but I get weird vibes about some of the listed facts:
1) “My publisher wanted Jesus, I wanted Faith. Jesus lost.” - Jesus lost? I’m agnostic so I don’t care either way but isn’t Tyler a Christian? Almost seems like a brag to put down Jesus. Weird, especially considering your girlfriend is a “Christian celeb”. 2) A White guy co-wrote your book? Why? No Black writers available? You’re trying to make it more palatable to White audiences? This is a book in being Black in America and you’re a Black advocate… 3) “When my parents read for the audiobook my mom who is a professional speaker STRUGGLED in the studio. My dad who spends most of his retired life watching every sport in his man cave… Killed it.” - So tired of Black men and their constant public put downs of Black women (I’m a Black woman btw). Dude, this is your mother. Maybe you have a super joking relationship in private but this is such an unnecessary public dig. Again, you’re promoting a book on being Black in America while making a jab at your Black mother. Be better Tyler. Lift women up. Lift Black women up! 4) “Vaginal steaming. You’re welcome.” - Haven’t read the book so don’t know the context of this but WTF! This line actually alone angers me. What am I thanking you for Tyler?!! Another dumbass man telling women what to do with their vaginas? Telling us what’s appropriate from our vaginas? TAKE ONE SECOND TO SEARCH THAT THERE IS ZERO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT VAGINAL STEAMING AND IT CAN BE DANGEROUS. But let me guess, your dumbass finds vaginas inherently icky. You probably make Jen get a Brazilian and douche before going down on her for 1.5 seconds. Then proclaim you’re some oral God. Did not mean to get riled up y’all. |

Oh and one more point I forgot:
“Jimmy Kimmel told me that he enjoyed reading my book more than Obama’s (I have that in writing somewhere)” FU TYLER! Jimmy Kimmel has never been a Black advocate. Remember when he completely stole Quinta’s award-winning moment?! Oh some White guy likes your book better than Obama’s? Which Obama are you even talking about? Which of their books are you even talking about? Are you actually using doucheboy White praise to put down Barack or Michelle? Two people who have done more for Black advocacy than you ever will? Forget riled up, I’m actually disgusted by you Tyler. |

Wow. I went back to Jen’s profile and Jan 7 was when her friends left austin so she could’ve flown to Vegas. It’s also the same weekend she posted the comment about her heart being discombobulated |

He mentioned VS constantly in his first book, like he thought it was some kind of recurring joke. It wasn't funny and it still isn't. That aside, the first three comments are enough to make me hope his new book bombs and bombs hard. I read his first book. I liked most of it. I did think some of it was whiny. Do I think he has done anything between then and now to warrant a second book? Nope. And pretty sure Jen won't get mentioned once, in the acknowledgements or otherwise. |

| Tyler's comments about "Jesus lost", etc., are from a pinned post celebrating the one year anniversary of the release of "I Take My Coffee Black." But yes, wow- so disrespectful toward the Obamas, his mother, and especially toward Jesus. God's Word is not mocked. These were bad seeds for him to sew. |

Speaking of books any word from Big Sis about any new manifestos beyond last year’s cookbook?
No vaguely dropped hints about how the words she’s currently “curating” are the most dear and most precious and most impactful and most transformative words she’s ever put down on paper? If Big Sass is allowed to continue his charade as a writer you’d think that Big Sis would be allowed to? I would like so see the book sales of all her books since For The Love. And Big Sas’ too. Just lined up all next to one another. |
