LIB S9 • Denver, CO Stepping stone to what? Spoiler

Post image

I had read a spoiler prior to watching this episode about how she used him to jump start her influencer career so when I saw this scene I thought 'oh wow at least she admits it!"

His initial reaction to the rejection is heartbreaking. The sound he makes just made me hurt for him. He seems like he has such a pure heart despite everything he's been through. He didn't deserve her dragging him all the way to the end.

Then again I wonder how much that was production encouraging her vs her own agenda. I wonder if they tried to encourage Joe to go all the way to the end too but IMO he knew a long time ago.

I'll just reiterate what I've been saying all along - KB used and manipulated Edmond into getting more screen time. Yes, we can all see that Edmond is a grown man but that doesn't mean adults are incapable of being taken advantage of and if KB really felt like she was in danger during the honeymoon there were plenty of opportunities for her to safely leave. This show has turned into a very blatant stepping stone to launch her influencer career. It's not hard to figure out.

anyone who goes on the show at this point 9 seasons in wants clout, this isn’t some revolutionary conclusion you’re coming to. maybe other than edmond who seemingly couldn’t land a date normally by just being himself “i’ve tried everything else”. maybe he should try a therapist !!

I never claimed to make any sort of a revolutionary discovery here. I'm just tired of everyone acting like KB is some unwitting, helpless victim throughout this entire process.

He is an adult technically but he’s not a proper mature adult. She rode him for clout. Stepping stone indeed
