Also, boy do I relate to your username. Fellow "stressed virgo" here. LOL!

LMAOOOOOO!!!! Now I've got to watch it!

Got it. It's nice to see issues resolved in such a commendable manner. You two set such a great example.

Wait, I'm a little confused. Was I being shitty? If so, I didn't mean to at all. It looks like your post may not be directed at me but I want to be certain as I usually enjoy my conversations with you. We share our theories and such. If I came across as negative I apologize. It was never my intention.

FL: "I can't really talk right now."
ML: "Are you crying?"
FL: "No, I'm not crying" (*while clearly crying*...yet she's still not hanging up the phone).

ME: *facepalm* + *eyes rolling damn near out of my head*

Omg, I hate it when people do crap like that. Clearly you want him to know you're crying so why not just say so! This is why men always think we don't say what we mean.

LOL! A year later but same here!

I feel you. I made it to episode 12 and about midway through I thought, "aaaand she's back to being really annoying again." The story and the writing is very entertaining otherwise but her behavior always takes away from the quality of the other aspects of the drama. It overshadows everything else, which is frustrating.

I also don't like how her mother never teaches her anything. She's clearly the reason why the FL never talks things through. All she ever does is call her an idiot and slap her and stuff. Rarely does she actually give her proper advice. She should have prepared her properly for marriage in the first place and continued guiding her after since she knows exactly how immature the FL is, but she doesn't. Her darn teacher did more.

Oh lord. lol

How could he let her become friends with his ex and not tell her that she's his ex? Not cool. If she chooses to be friends with her despite knowing that's one thing but no woman would ever want to find out that someone she's getting close to turns out to be her husband's ex and that neither said anything to her about it.

OMG. I get that it's supposed to either be cute or funny but seeing a grown ass woman sitting on the floor of a department store and throwing a legit toddler-style tantrum is completely turning me off. I really wish they'd tamed down her immaturity some, especially after she got married. She's not even trying to be more mature!

She's legit giving me a damn headache.

It's such a great drama to watch otherwise but these last 2 episodes (5 & 6) have been killing me with her obnoxious immaturity and just ruining it for me. I'm sticking it out though.

Quick question. When do the leads each figure out all the tricks the ML's ex has been up to? Does it happen relatively quickly?

OMG I'm just getting to your earlier posts below. LOL! I see we're having all the same struggles. Too funny. Since you're able to say you enjoyed it overall I feel much better now.

Oh! I just see that you had issues with her too! I'm on ep. 5 now (near the end). Please tell me we start seeing changes in her very soon.

Okay I've been totally hooked so far but now I've watched most of ep. 5 and her extreme immaturity is becoming too much. I'm also irritated with her mother since not only has she not prepared the FL for adulthood at all, but she also isn't talking things through with her to help her understand where she's wrong or showing her better ways to handle things. She just yells and hits her...which I guess also explains why the FL is constantly yelling (it's grating my nerves at this point, can you tell? lol)

So I'm hoping you can tell me things improve. Her immaturity is overshadowing how poorly the ML has been treating her since they've gotten married. But it's only become overbearing in this particular episode. Does it go on for much longer? If so I may have to stop bingeing this and take it more slowly.

LMAOOOOOO! Best commentary ever! You captured the essence of their dynamic perfectly! Too funny!

Facts! But getting divorced is not so simple. You have to understand, when you marry someone your entire future changes. Everything you do is tied to that other person and them being a major part of your life. Divorce is NOTHING like a simple breakup and parting of ways. People who have lived together for a long time would understand it a lot better. Every aspect of your life is tied to that person so breaking those ties is complicated and more difficult that most people realize. Just the thought of the process of going through a divorce often is enough to stop people from going that route. But also, when you take that step of marriage, you throw your all into that commitment. Knowing that, no matter how strong of a couple you might be, that you WILL go through some seriously rough patches. The way she handled things is very much in line with someone who didn't want to give up on her marriage or on him. That's exactly how it SHOULD be. If not, you shouldn't be getting married.

I totally get everything you're saying. My post wasn't directed at logical and rational thinkers like yourself. It was for those people who were being completely over-dramatic and extreme.

The first time I watched it the comments were more in line with those you stated. Even in my original posts I had comments on many of the same issues you bring up. However, when I came back to watch it again the comments had become over-the-top and extra. Then others were jumping on the bandwagon. My post was countering specific comments made. They knew full well exactly whom it was directed towards. LOL!

But you're also missing my point. The show never made it seem like his behavior was okay and she never behaved like it was either. However, when your married there's a lot more than you tolerate and endure, hoping for them to finally understand, knowing things will be better if and when they did. Divorcing is nothing like a dating couple breaking up. Your comments and feedback are on point for a couple that was dating. However, for a couple that is married the way she handled things is more accurate and true to life.

I'm guessing you haven't been married?

This I can absolutely understand and agree with but some people on here were just being dang ridiculous.

Also, my point was the show never did act like his behavior was okay. Most definitely not but, the way she handled it was in line with the character. Had she handled things differently it wouldn't have fit because that wasn't the character's personality.

Furthermore, when someone values the sanctity of marriage and doesn't believe in divorce this is what you get. People go through therapy and all that but they don't just give up on the other person or the relationship. Too many people are looking at this from a dating person's point of view, not a married one. I myself have been divorced twice! Yet I still get that what she did was try her very hardest to make her marriage work. That's how it should be. You don't throw in the towel if you haven't given it your all. Not when it comes to marriage.

LOL! I watched this quite a while back and am considering watching it again now. Reading your comment is like deja vu. It's literally everything I remember thinking with the exception of my being a team captain. I may not have been a captain but I was a competitive, college and national team swimmer so I can relate. My concerns about their questionable swimming skills went right out the window really quickly.
