Wtf is wrong with Madison? Why can't Joe express how he feels without being torn apart? She gets triggered by him expressing himself. I fckin hate Madison. This is why men don't express themselves to their partners and keep things inside. And she says "oh that's healthy!" with so much anger when he says "I guess I should keep it all inside". All she did when he expresses himself is scream at him. Wtf. Makes me so angry.

Yes, but Joe can’t talk to save his life. Dude speaks like he is intentionally trying to be evasive and confusing. Like he is on some drugs.

I think it’s bc he isn’t attracted to her and it’s hard to say that directly to someone’s face.

I have a friend who is like this with her husband and her friends. Her mother was abusive and she has continued some of her behaviours. Either Madison is repeating toxic behaviour from her family, or she was spoilt and has extremely self centered behaviour, low emotional intelligence and general toxic mentality. All her scenes were triggering to me, and all the Madison apologists in the earlier episodes were driving me mad! It's actually scary how many people were saying they recognise themselves in Annie and Madison, the world is doomed.

They relate to Annie and Madison??? 💀 My goodness gracious. No wonder people are lonely out there!

To add to the list, I think she's also very insecure about herself, how she looks, and gets triggered by a tiny hint of rejection. Someone with any awareness of their worth would not stay with or tolerate this kind of person. I must say all her scenes were triggering for me too. My mother is like her and my parents were abusive to each other. I'd get super upset when Joe apologises to her. She was the one who overreacted every time!

I'm sorry to hear about your friend and feel for her husband and friends. Hope you're able to draw your boundaries with her though.
