      That’s typical for adults that grew up around trauma in their fundamental years. She also had a lot of hate for other women. That too is very typical for women raised by highly dysfunctional women. I love her so much but, as someone that was raised with some crazy generational trauma myself, this is more typical than we talk about in our society.

    i think Tina was probably over compensating for her loveless marriage by bragging about all the stuff Ike bought her. When people are in manipulative domestic situations where they are being brainwashed, they try and over sell the good the person does for them to help bury the mass amount of hurt they do to them.. its a coping mechanism, like working a job you hate to your core but then spending excessively to compensate yourself, this of course doesnt help because its your mental heath that is being compromised.

      Tina never grew out of that materialistic phase. Ike said he'd giver her $20,000 for shopping and she'd spend it all still owing money to the boutique. In 1985, Tina bragged to People magazine that she spent $5,000 an hour shopping. She loves talking about her expensive things. In her second book she talks more about designer brands than her sons. She gave every detail of her wedding except why her family wasn't there.
