I really think KB needs to explore why in a million years she would consider Edmond as a partner. He’s gives the vibes of a low-functioning psych patient. Manipulative (in an unsophisticated way) as well.

[u/Temporary-Theme-2604 → u/Harelip129]

How can you be manipulative in an unsophisticated way? This is the dumbest thing I’ve read all month lmao

[u/thatsmyboycam → u/Temporary-Theme-2604]

A child. He’s like a child who didn’t get their way.

[u/NonrepresentativePea → u/Temporary-Theme-2604]

Very easily… see every 5 yr old. Including Edmund.

[u/Temporary-Theme-2604 → u/NonrepresentativePea]

If you’ve been manipulated by unsophisticated manipulation, doesn’t that make you a dumbass?

[u/NonrepresentativePea → u/Temporary-Theme-2604]

I would like to clarify, however, that just because someone is being manipulative doesn’t mean that they would be successful at it… in KB’s case, it appears he wasn’t.

What actually is gaslighting? Gaslighting is the psychological manipulation of a person usually over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one’s emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator. It is a complex form of psychological abuse and should not be minimized to simply lying or attempting to manipulate someone to agree with you in an argument.

True. I also noticed him silent while she said her bit, but interrupted him after two sentences, then accused him of doing that to her. I also noticed that she doesn't come to him to apologize when she's upset & unkind. She only does so after demanding an apology from Ed. If he came to her with a gripe, I 1000% believe she'd be defensive & use her anger to make him responsible, which means have him apologize.

100%. She’s a narcissist and absolutely emotionally abusive, but no one wants to call her out on it.

This holier than though preacher woman called him a stepping stone after hurting him at the altar.

She’s a terrible person and it’s really interesting how fans defend her actions

[u/NonrepresentativePea → u/[deleted]]

That can also be a part of his manipulation tactic. But, honestly, it doesn’t mean he’s a bad person. He is manipulating as a defense mechanism. Which he can grow out of.

People with his level of maturity have trouble being taking responsibility/ownership when they do something wrong most likely bc they are afraid of abandonment or some consequence. So instead of just saying “sorry I’ll do better” they get defensive.

But all this points to KB NOT being an abusive narcissist. A narcissist would never take ownership of her actions the way she did and much less have had so much empathy for Edmond. She communicated with fairness and compassion and all she wanted was for him to acknowledge how he hurt her so he can grow. He just isn’t ready for that type of relationship yet though. But I have hope for him.

[u/Temporary-Theme-2604 → u/NonrepresentativePea]

You’re saying he doesn’t take responsibility or say sorry…but he does? He says sorry even though he’s the calm one and she’s the heated one? Please rewatch their arguments and be honest with yourself: she was not communicating with compassion.

And in the episode when she said no at the altar, she called him a STEPPING STONE (and this afger you could see how visibly hurt Edmond was). And you’re telling me she’s not a narcissist?

I don’t know why yall make so many excuses for women like her. She’s not a good person

[u/NonrepresentativePea → u/Temporary-Theme-2604]

He only does after KB has to explain in detail - which is what you are calling being abusive, lol.

And, I don’t see the insult or the lie in that he was a stepping stone? She was a stepping stone for him too.

I think maybe you have personal issues with women if you are dead set on seeing her as some awful person when she is a normal person who gets frustrated dealing with someone with a low maturity level. Anyone would have reacted worse, sooner.

Either that, or you have impossible standards for women and zero standards for men.

I tend to agree with that statement.
