If she had such a great experience why let it get ruined by feeling sorry for yourself!!! I am sure there would have been plenty of other opportunities to sare her experince with the housemates! everything does not have to opperate on allison time!!!
sorry I think allison needs to grow up and just like dr. stan said get thicker skin, and quit having such high expectations of others.
I still am pondering more on the allison issue in my brain, but gotta agree with this post. As I've been busy with MAJOR real life issues, (Mam passed away last Wed. and was bedridden for a week or so before....), I DVR'd all the shows and got to watch them one after the other, of the past two weeks or so.
I was just baffled (once again!!) by allison, going to Houston to GIVE support to the survivors of Katrina, and coming home NEEDING support for GIVING it! She does irk me so, and since Mam passed I've been trying really hard to look at everyone differently, with more compassion, as Mam did. But I can NOT get over the baby act.
Dr. Stan was so right on when he said no more making up stories, no more hyperbole, grow a thicker skin, and STOP making everything about herself!!!!!
She's driving me batty, (I know, I'm already halfway there, okay a bit more than halfway,
)
With her and lisa, this is really a time to watch. I missed the first time around, and am watching these two very self centered women, lisa with her nasty snarkiness, 'sharing her *FEEEEEEEEELINGS*', and using that remark to make ANY kind of snarky comment on anyone there.
Making it look as if everyone was waiting for allison to come back and clean, and yet, WTH was lisa doing, not scrubbing the tub, as she 'wasn't the last one to use it', and doing exactly what she was trying to make the others feel bad about.
It was good, and very healthy (for allison herself, whether she knows it or not, yet), to watch allison get busted in group by Dr. Stan, when she started with the hyperventilating and crying, hearing ppl say 'this is what the problem is, we can't say anything to allison as she just tears up and takes on all (alleged) blame', and her emotions make everyone back off. She's worse than walking on eggshells. It's like walking over a huge spiked pit, covered with eggshells! It's one of the best controlling 'acts' there are, taking it all on oneself, and 'not looking like a "biotch"'.
And yes, ppl can choose to not let her emotions control them, and their own actions. But you can only try so many times, and get met with that 'act'.
They, the SO Show, have truly done her a MAJOR disservice of letting her come back and letting her stay for so long. Whatever. Some say she wasn't ready, too soon, but they ought to have taken her in for a week or a set amount of time, already stated ahead of time, so that she wouldn't dig that rut she's in and instead of climbing out, she just keeps *decorating* it! How many 'ladders' can they hand her to get out, with her merely tossing them back out, unused???
The show has been enabling her long enough, it's been toooo long. She needs private counseling and I certainly hope she gets it.
And to whomever said she didn't look happy t the race, was right, I agree, she is still sitting in that rut, has new wallpaper up, and is charging new paint and furniture for it, heh.
It's a sad life she is *CHOOSING* to live. I have some empathy for her, but not much as the days grow longer and it's the 'allison show', every day with her.
Oh well, just a minor vent...and all my own opinions. Had to get it out somewhere that others can see both sides. Even if I don't agree with everyone else.
Love ya'll,
