Starting Over Talk - Peer Coaching Support Site

I'm with honeyspur. I think maybe we only saw one little tiny bit of a longer moment. And Cheryl did need to stop choking in those little breaths and really get a good one so she could calm down. I've cried like that and it is so hard to stop once you get going. It was Simon's moment after all and I was having a hard time concentrating on what was being said by him and to him over Cheryl bawling. I'm not saying she didn't deserve to cry, she'd had a breakthrough.

I think they edit A LOT of stuff that keeps us from knowing the REAL situation behind the HG's reactions, etc. For instance, the day of "the car" was the first day the HG had been able to get a good shower and clean up. They didn't have A/C for the first 3-4 days! The house was 90+ degrees!!!!

I started cracking up when LOU told Cheryl to breathe. If you notice she calmed down, I'm sure she could of excused herself from the table.

Also I think the reason Michael got a slap on the wrist was that he didn't say to Iylana face "I will not do that". He agreed, but later realized the intent and then said no. Had he told Iylana no, at the time the assignment was given, I dont think Iylana's response would have been the same.

I didn’t like the way he spoke to her as well…. But as you all mentioned we may have not seen all of it and edited out... I would like to say that everyone girl/woman is different and some woman are extremely sensitive. I know that I am. When I am upset and cry I’ll hold back as much as I can and cry inside and it’s like you can’t breath. We all cry differently and this is how she cries. I think and could be wrong maybe he was just annoyed with her and he is the kind of person that will say whatever is on his mind and not think about the other people’s feelings.

Lou is a loose cannon. I have friends just like him.

I do know that after Lou told her to suck one in and blow it back out, when they came back from commercial I think, both he and Jennifer were telling Cheryl that they weren't judging her and they loved her. So, from that, I can Imagine there was much more to that conversation than what we saw. I think that if Cheryl was so sensitive she would have been much snottier when she said that Lou wasn't ready for the process.

When did Lou tell Cheryl to "breathe??"

I thought he was very touched with the letter they all wrote him and the things they said in it were very touching.

I also laughed when they had a group hug then Lou says....we should all get a big house together !!

Thought the sex doc was pretty cool too.
