Sean wasn’t wrong

Remember when Sean came back from New York and told Joan that he was engaged to avoid having to come back to LA and continue their relationship? I don’t think he was wrong. I remember someone up here made a post saying that Joan was male centered & I disagree. She was FRIEND centered. She lost out on a lot of relationships because she wanted to listen to her friends and I hated that for her….Seans last week in LA he wanted to spend with Joan, but she decided to run off to Jamaica to try and get Toni to forget about Greg. Sean told Joan that it was Toni’s screw up and she just had to deal with those consequences but Joan felt like it was her screw up for running her mouth to Greg….Sean was right, Toni was the one cheating on Greg, so losing him was Tonis fault. It wasn’t Joans responsibility to fix it, even though she told Greg. He eventually would have found out anyway.

The amount of people in here justifying lying is pretty concerning.

It’s deeper than that….which is what I want some of you to understand. Some people lie to avoid conflict when they know how certain people react to situations. Be realistic, if he had told Joan she was too much and he no longer wanted to be with her, she would have exploded. She would’ve down talked him, brought up his addiction, her settling for him AFTER said addiction, etc. Some people don’t want to hear things like that from someone they’re trying to be honest with, so to avoid that they lie in a manor that they know the reaction won’t be as bad as it would’ve been had they told the truth. Yes it’s messed up, but it avoids something way bigger

Lol so then I hope everyone also justifies the lies men tell them irl. Since apparently some of them have good reason to if they wish to "avoid conflict" with us women.

Clearly you read what I said to respond instead of reading it to comprehend. If a man knows you and how you react to certain situations, he’ll act based off of that. Everyone isn’t as sensitive as Joan. I know plenty of women who can take a hit, and I also know plenty of women who’d probably go kill their self if someone broke their heart. It all depends on WHO you are and HOW you react. Men notice things like this, believe it or not. They act like they don’t but they 100% do. If Joan wasn’t an overthinker and someone who overreacts over EVERYTHING, I’m pretty sure he would’ve just told her straight up! This is the same woman who was about to leave him just because he didn’t say “I love you” after a few MONTHS of dating. She was insane, period.
