    I am so happy that it was mentioned how he tried to make Alex look bad by not defending the abusive narrative he created. To me it was always obvious that he was going out of his way to tarnish Alex's image, while she was going out of her way to protect Tim's image. Another example is when he was breaking up with her and he mentioned "As soon as the cameras left, you fell asleep" He was trying to create a narrative that she was fake in front of the cameras. Yet he never mentioned that she had a night shift, nor that HE left the house when the cameras left. He constantly tried to cast Alex as the villain for things like taking naps or not replying to texts, but once we heard her side, it became clear Tim was always leaving out crucial context. Another example is when he tried to cuddle and claimed she didn’t care, but conveniently left out the fact that she was asleep when he did it. 🙄

    at first i thought they didn’t like each other mutually, but tim was just not ready for a relationship and alex was never able to let her walls down
    yep he was very calculated in not correcting people about what happened. I’m so sorry that happened
    none of these men were up to par, NONE!

    I believe the reason for his breaking up - was Tim was too mentally weak for Alex, he couldn't impose and dictate the rhythm of the relationship.
    Alex was too non-chalante with him, which explains his rage at the break -up.

    • @zt7961
      @zt7961 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      I agree I think Alex’s non chalant attitude bothered Tim the most. Alex observed Tim and was very careful about what reaction she gave him. Even at the reunion it seemed he was still trying to get her attention and see a reaction to something.

    For all the naysayers against Alex…bet if you speak with any of Tim’s exes, the script will be the same. He leaves at the slightest bit of conflict or when he doesn’t get his way. He has a ton of NPD traits, calling her abusive when it’s really him that’s verbally abusive. How he has to control the conversation, “Are you gonna let me speak?”. This guy is not compatible with any reasonable person or any person that ever disagrees with him. Alex dodged a bullet!

    36:43 I have been shouting this all of over the internet; I hated how he let the internet run with the narrative that she was abusive. He let that go on for far too long until she spoke up at the reunion. That was bothering me for the longest time and honestly made me very concerned for her.

    @valeriejohnson8771 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    I’m not on social media, thank goodness! I will say that this is very good interview where we see Alex as a person. She is caring, and kind. I remember how tears flowed down her cheeks when Tim was revealing his deep pain after losing both of his older sisters. She felt his pain, and was honoured that he chose to share that with her. LIB only gave us snippets of interaction between all of the couples, which accounted for conjecture from viewers.
    I can recall thinking that Alex was lazy, and seemed tired most of the time. I also saw that she was feeling a bit overwhelmed with her interactions with Tim. I also noticed Tim’s military style of laying down the law. It seemed that she had to accept his word without explanation. Whereas she needed him to work through his angst, with her so she could understand him more. Tim had formed this bond with Alex because of her shared experience of dealing with her parents chronic illnesses, and his family’s deep losses. Trauma! On both sides. Tim has a lot of healing to do, and has issues dealing well romantic relationships. His mother referenced the fact that he doesn’t open up easily etc. it was obvious by the time Tim found a reason to break up with Alex, that she was over him. She could see the difficult road ahead, and I totally understand her reaction.

Also, the edit Alex got truly feels not representative of how their relationship was. TY so much truly for listening!

    Ashley saying Tim was more playful in the pods than in real life is crazy. He was being super playful and fun when they first saw each other face to face and Alex kept acting as if she was turned off and complaining about him calling himself a dog. 2 sides to every story. Alex isn't the innocent person she portrays herself to be

      It's always been interesting to me how housework or potentially leaving some dishes in the sink can negate all of the work that she does outside of the home. She was working 3 jobs at the time of filming and I feel like if she were a man, her low energy would be understood and there would have been a lot more compassion towards her going to bed without doing them. Just my opinion!

    This is painful to watch. Alex says she takes accountability? At the reunion she doubled down on calling him a little b and said she called him that because he was acting like one. Alex says Tim types paragraphs on his IG but aren’t paragraphs shorter than her doing interviews? Like, what’s the difference? They both are giving details and contexts so why is the medium important? Alex said she needed time to clear up “abusive” but Alex is only just now clearing up her not feeling “safe” is with her heart and she didn’t mean she didn’t feel safe physically with Tim. Shouldn’t that have been just as clear prior to now? Alex said Tim told her IN DETAIL why he was different which was adjustment to the cameras. Because Tim was DETAILED, Alex could tell the casts why he’s different yet when she needed space she wasn’t detailed with Tim? The host of this podcast glossed over so quickly with Alex calling Tim a little b. That’s wild! Alex also said “call me out my name, whatever I don’t care.” That was telling because it shows she doesn’t think it’s a big deal when it’s a huge deal to men and completely emasculating….in an interview where the host insinuates Tim gets emasculated easily.

      To me it mainly seems like they’re massively incompatible. Alex is learning boundaries and standing firm in them, and possibly isn’t willing to bend as much as she used to. Tim has no respect for boundaries/is a boundary breaker and expects things to be his way for them to be deemed as correct. So what you’re saying is correct, but your view is a little too simplistic

    I see Tim & Alex both displaying the same behaviors that they don't like in each other, unfortunately. Two people with communication issues. Pride. Two people trying to make the other look a little worse than necessary ...when a "We were just not compatible" would suffice.
    Showing up stank bc you're still upset from the night before isn't great communication.
    Leveraging the "why were you like that with my parents" thing, when according to this, their week was already planned and he knew what to do bc of her coaching... seems manipulative. If he was bad w/ her parents the relationship would be over. But if he knocks it out the park he can't mention he has his doubts later?
    And I'm not a Tim defender... They have both been really unfair to each other. They could both use some closure. (Away from some cameras and social media)

    • @Julie-j9o
      @Julie-j9o 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +11

      Completely disagree. Tim literally told us he bought a shirt because a girlfriend didn't like it. That's an antagonizer. He likes to push buttons but at the same time is hypersensitive about his buttons. Everything in the show should be read in that lens. He demanded she cater to him while not communicating his needs and while disregarding her needs. And then the one time she tries to get him to stop screaming at her, he's suddenly a DV victim. There's nothing remotely similar. She's just less needy than him.

    • @christianjrb
      @christianjrb 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @Julie-j9o If Alex had an ex that didn't like her wearing a shirt that she bought anyway. No one would bat an eye. In fact, we'd celebrate her individuality / freedom. So why do you fault Tim for not conforming to this ex... If he's defiant it's antagonizing, but if she's defiant (choosing to eat when she knows he came over to film) it's yas queen.
      The only lens I view them with is: individuals get to set their own boundaries and should communicate them.
      I think they both failed at that. How many times in just this interview did she say: "I just wasn't feeling it."
      If that's true, what was she doing to fix that? Or at least address it? Why show up just to show up and half-ass things.
      I agree that Tim holds on to slights and punishes her unfairly. But she acts like the whole relationship was in his hands. Based on this interview what did she do in that relationship other than watch him be mad? ...Everyone is trying their best to be the victim. I don't buy it.

      Just as, Tim was barking like a dog - REPEATEDLY - when they met just BECAUSE she said she didn’t like it.
      He NEEDS the experience of diminishing his partner’s perspective, just as he NEEDS validation through having his partner submit to his every preference - when to communicate (even if you’re at work), when to engage (even if you request space), when to sleep (a one-hour nap in between a full work day followed by many hours with his parents, before a full night of work is not OK).
