      This is a bit late, but I just caught up on the show lol. Jimmy is a lot more slick and manipulative than he appears imo. He was incredibly disrespectful towards Chelsea throughout the process, both in what we see and the stuff Chelsea’s mentioned being edited out. I’m guessing he probably got nervous that she would ‘correct the record’ at the reunion and that’s why he reached out to mend things with her right before. Honestly, I was right there with all the Team Jimmy people until the reunion and now hearing Chelsea’s experiences on these podcasts. Paints a completely different picture. And I find Chelsea to be a lot more reliable than Jimmy, who thought it was ok to lie about Jessica and portray her as an angry woman who stormed out on him after 10 minutes, when she did nothing of the sort. The fact that men were sending death threats to Chelsea and Jimmy didn’t own up to his behavior and shut all that nonsense down… is wild

    I honestly believe that jimmy wasn’t physically attracted to Chelsea , his body language was off you could see in his face once they were revealed to eachother that in his mind he made a mistake. Even the small comments he made about her physical appearance, you have to really pay attention to understand! His body language and the way he talked to Jess at the river, was more intimacy than I ever seen the whole show between him & Chelsea. Once he seen what he passed up on he mentally checked out. I really do believe if it were him & Jess together he would’ve made it work

    @tspfull 4 месяца назад +14

    update: i keep coming back to her blaming both Jimmy and the edit for what appeared to occur. it really smacks a inability to own what happened on her end. which happens to match what we see onthe edit of the show
    I do feel for her in that she seemed to have twisted herself into knots to make something work that seemed so painful. It seemed on air and continues to seem that she wanted Jimmy to change into this person who would be the right fit (the person who he seemed in the pods to her) instead of seeing him for the wrong fit and acting accordingly. He seemed extremely avoidant and emotionally constricted which will always make someone with "big feelings" appear like the are comparatively unhinged.
    So here in the interview is something that I think people talk about with her. the idea that one can have a perspective that isn't "right" but yours. in this interview she keeps on talking about appropriate boundaries as the key for boy-girl friendships but appropriate is a relative term and it important to acknowledge there isn't just one way to determine what appropriate is. Clearly her idea of appropriate is not what Jimmy's was and that is ok. she continues to paint her idea of appropriate as what should be considered generally acceptable.

    • @sarahalysse
      @sarahalysse  4 месяца назад +2

      Such a great point! Hopefully the two of them can communicate this better to their future partner way in advance.

You deserve a man that wants you and that doesn't make you feel insecure. I'm rooting for Chelsea, i just wish she loves herself more. Don't beg for anyone, don't make it work if its only you who is trying to make it work. You deserve the world and I'm excited for Chelsea's next chapter.

      As a friend going into this, I knew I was going to be a bit bias but I still made sure to ask the questions people were asking in FB groups, IG and TikTok. The main reason was like you said no focus on pressing them and the camera only showed one side of Chelsea. I’m sure Jimmy will get to share his story over time. Thankfully AD, Jess and other cast mates shared how he did go out and IRL what a confident sweet woman Chelsea is, I’m just happy the other side is out there now.

    I've never seen your channel before, but I am SO grateful you gave Chelsea the opportunity to explain what was really going on. It was clear to me from the beginning that Jimmy was triggering her with his lies and manipulation, and how he basically drove her crazy by saying one thing and doing another. I dont know him, and I hope Chelsea doesn't take offense to my criticisms of him, but I really hope women can learn from this. When a woman behaves the way Chelsea did, there is a REASON for it. That doesn't make it the best way to behave, but people who are being mistreated should not be expected to behave well at all times. Any woman could fall victim to the dynamic Jimmy created with her.

You mentioned that the basis of the show falling in love and not seeing someone you’re all about it, but it seems like you had doubt because you had to bring looks into this.. you’re explanation of it on all these platforms just doesn’t convince me or doesn’t make me feel that you were that naïve to realize that you were psychologically bookmarking a hint for him whether if it’s true or not, you dangle a carrot

    Okay this is my 3rd comment as I’m just finishing up this interview and have finally heard it all. I really do wish Chelsea the best and I think she is a decent person. I do wish she would do a little more reflection. Maybe even study herself through all these interviews and make adjustments as necessary. We don’t all get the priverlage to be our authentic selves on camera like she has. To keep saying you take responsibility for your actions and follow through with a “but…”, for example she said I get that it’s wrong to share Jimmys secret about sex with his friend when I told him I wouldn’t BUT…..That’s like saying I’m not racist but…..or I don’t mean to be rude but…..everyone knows whatever you said before the “BUT…” doesn’t count or you didn’t mean it. Also it’s a little delusional to get mad at the whole ordeal w/his ex, bring it up, justify your actions and then turn around and say you have a lot of guy friends including your ex who you f*cked also. If you think it’s that bad think about how your exes wife feels. You FaceTimed him after your honeymoon. Like how close are yall? What volume does that say about yall? Just some points to self examine on.

      I respect your feedback. I wanted to address the bias. Most of my interviews are normally wellness, leadership, or self growth based focusing on positive spins to how they have gotten to where they are today. Being a friend, the portrayal of her really got to me because I had experienced passive aggressive men in the past and I could clearly see the edit from my years of podcasting and on-camera work. Also, I went into all of the FB groups to understand and ask the questions that I saw them constantly bring up. I wanted to start the conversation but I’m hoping interviewers like Nick Vials will continue the dialogue. Lastly, the fact that other cast mates like AD are confirming that IRL chelsea is a strong sweet woman tells me that the whole story wasn’t shown.

    This podcast had a good sides and Chelsea does need a platform to explain her self, and I am glad to her this, but this is so biased. Not surprisingly, cause you are friends. No hard questions were asked nor perspectives challenged. And ganging up on Jimmy's friend "she inserted her self blah blah" so not cool. Regardless of everything, Chelsea was hard to watch whatever the trigger. She needs extreme support in handling her emotions when challenged. It was a great case study to watch of two incompatible people going against themselves.

    Halfway through the interview and I’m having so much trouble reconciling how incongruent Chelsea’s message is with what we saw. For example, she says she loved him, she said Jimmy was inconsistent and who he was off camera was different. So different that she made it seem like she could tell he was actually not his person. And yet on camera she was so ready to marry him. Okay, so what was it? Either Jimmy was who he portrayed himself out to be or not and she was crazy. It’s one or the other.

      Also - didn't she admit he was at work when they weren't filming. Being a remote employee, I understand the importance of having a dedicated workspace free of distraction. She likely wanted him to dote on her in between his meetings. She's toxic and can't take any ownership. Any time she is found to be at fault she immediately shifts the blame to others. It's never just her. Sad the reunion show didn't touch on their story because I'm sure if she brought any of this up he would be able to counter it.

      She acknowledges that in the interview that it is was not the right time and never is to argue after drinking. In social situations she never goes overboard. These shows are really good at getting their contestants liquored up and lots of sleep depravation keeping them up late. Not an excuse...something that needs to be talked about and done better. They do this to prompt their talent to stir up drama.

This interview alone changes my entire perspective! I need an interview like this for each of them! 🤣
    Also, the fact that almost every man there had something dumb to say about how fast it was all going makes me want to scream. It’s not like they didn’t know how the show works, the timeline, etc. If they didn’t think moving that fast was for them then why did they agree to be on the show?

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he wasn’t showing much affection outside of the cameras. He seems very conscious over how he & his relationships are perceived, specifically when he was very uncomfortable with Chelsea saying “look at the strongest couple” and it wasn’t them. Like yeah you are having some arguments, you may not be the strongest couple. I also think Chelsea has that issue to some extent but in front of the camera she seemed to be pretty true to herself, letting all sides of her show.
    I wish we got to see all the clips from a 3rd party perspective but I can understand freaking out if someone is acting different on & off the camera, that would make me feel gaslighted. I really disliked the way she handled arguments but I wish we saw more of their relationship.

    I am with Chelsea on alot of points. Jimmy said all the words, but clearly didn't show actions. Jimmy lied when confronted about spinning AD around and saying " When did I say that?" Like he couldn't recall saying not to initiate intimacy with him, when he definitely said it. Jimmy did not love her and was not attracted to her at all. Chelsea is a very pretty woman. Just not his type. Chelsea felt all of these things, and became unhinged and looked nuts and desperate. She should have cut this thing off when she felt this way. His words and actions didn't match. But instead of either of them ending the torture for themselves and viewers, ( even though viewers love drama) they chose to drag this mess out til the end. Did they do it to stay on the show as long as possible? Perhaps.Jimmy I'm almost certain did. Maybe Chelsea was just hoping and praying his actions would begin to match his words and was delusionally hopeful.

They can’t show everything! But clearly they showed yall pretty great cause people were right. She blames everyone but justifies herself …Don’t say you think he wasn’t ready for marriage but act like you were and put that on him when you yourself say you had to get help for your insecurities and how this show helped you recognize your flaws?!?! Soooo you weren’t ready then ??? We didn’t need to see anymore girl we saw enough trust me we got it!!! It was clear yall didn’t work… The whole talk she contradicted herself left and right. I’m just confused lol! This is a mess! Prob why friends shouldn’t interview eachother they ain’t gonna call you out and they are totally bias!
