Many of my recently-divorced friends are fans of hers.  Even before Jen's own divorce, they really liked her full of fire pablum.  But my friends were in bad marriages, to goofy guys who should have never been married.

This made me think about Kristen and Jamie's exes.  While Kristen's husband was unfaithful and they grew apart, he sounded like more of a man-child.  Jamie's ex sounded borderline abusive and a sex addict. With these bad marriages in the rear view mirror, I wonder if it colored how they approached Jen with Brandon.  Like, they didn't seem to offer her advice on how to work it out, work on the marriage, or reconcile.  It was straight to divorce.  And although Kristen and Jamie seem very happy with their current relationships, you wonder if misery loves company.  Plus, they only saw him once per year, or heard about him via Jen's group texts when she likely was texting only when there was a problem.
