1. Honestly it seemed like the right choice, I'm just concerned cause Braeden is also developing himself and his family is a hot mess so I'm not quite sure how he's going to manage all of that plus school. I'm really praying for him. 2. It was high time! someone who's confident in their own skin and sexuality doesn't deserve what Rita is going through. Like it's from one failed relationship to another... I'm really hoping she actually finds someone that's worth her time. Sam on the other hand looks like she's living a lie! Like gurl BFFR! 3. I mean I understand where she's coming from but it still doesn't justify it! I would definitely take the chance if I had the opportunity but because it's now engraved in her character, I think this is something that will definitely ROCK their ship. At this point, I'm just here for the show🤭 4. Aha ha!!! I definitely do not think so but ayy what do I know about relationships; just that my favorite Sims couple also had the wife lying till their wedding day🤷🏾‍♀️ it's just funny how people were so quick to shit on Amelia and Alas! Yet another relationship on it's way to marriage on lies. I'm just so expectant on what's Stephano's character is gonna be after this. Also, I don't really like the fact that it looks like Saanvi is getting looped into this whole Neveah debauchery! Like urgh it's making me feel like she's gonna be in a really weird spot down the line... She can't tell Stephano without utterly betraying Neveah and she can't be quiet cause when the truth does come out (cause it will💀) Stephano's gonna hate her even more😭. I'm still excited to see what you guys come up with cause it ALWAYS leaves me speechless!

1) I am conflicted about what Braeden chose to do. It wasn’t the right choice. A part of me understands why he did it and another part of me doesn’t. 2) Yes, Rita needs to move on from Sam. 3) No, I don’t understand where Neveah is coming from. Yes, I would. 4) The messy in me hopes their wedding won’t go smoothly. I think the biggest surprise is that everything will go well. When I have more time, I'll detail my thoughts.

My thoughts: (its all over the place) Braeden is going through a lot. I’m glad that his mom came with him to the hospital to support Chloe. I’m not surprised that Chloe left the hospital and the baby. She’s just remembered that her step-dad raped her and fathered her child. Once she woke up and remembered, I did not expect her to even want to see the baby. I cringed a little when Lynn called Chloe’s baby cute. That baby is a daily reminder of the sexual abuse she sustained from her stepdad while she was unconscious. I’m sure Lynn said that because she didn’t know what the hell to say to her. I get it. I wouldn’t know what to say either. Chloe may be feeling a lot different emotions and I’m sure resentment of the life she created is probably one of them. I wonder if Chloe actually loves Braeden or is it more that she relates to him (due to having broken families) and has mistaken that for love? For Braeden, it's like Lynn is his lifeline. I hate that for her. That is putting way too much pressure on her to be what he needs in order for him to be emotionally regulated/stable. This is what I was afraid of many episodes ago. That when they got into a relationship, she would be the one doing the heavy lifting. In terms of carrying the emotional burden of their relationship. I’m pleased Lynn flipped it around and told him don’t put your hurt on me as if I’m the one that caused it. That’s what some people do though. Lash out at the ones closest to us because we feel helpless at those that have hurt us. He’s feeling rejected now because she won’t be moving in with him. On top of finding out about Chloe’s assault, the baby he’d been prepping months for is not his, bonding with Chloe about the baby. Everything he once thought has now been turned upside down. He’s dizzy and off kilter. He doesn’t even know what to think anymore. Everything is a blur. In a sea of darkness, Lynn is that flickering beacon of light that grounds him. I get it and I don’t fault him. I guess a part of me wants him to find that within himself by confronting his own issues.

I feel like Lynn has grown/matured a little bit. She came to the realization that she isn’t ready to move in with Braeden yet though she loves him fiercely. She knows he has so much going on and she isn’t equipped to handle it all. That takes courage. To be aware of your boundaries and realize that maybe you aren’t as ready as you once thought you were. That’s OK. Nothing is set in stone and you can change your mind. It doesn’t mean that you love the person any less. It just means she’s not quite ready and needs to reassess. I appreciate mama Lynn for bluntly saying that Lynnette will not be moving in with him. I agree with her. Too much too soon. Braeden is super sensitive emotionally. It's not a bad thing. Though, I do think that it's something that should be noted and not be taken lightly. Braeden did a noble act - putting his name as the father of Chloe’s baby. Noble but stupid. I wish he would’ve taken a few moments to clue his mom in. She would have definitely shined in that moment of being able to shut off the emotional side of expecting to be a grandmother and think logically. Chloe nor Braeden are equipped to do so presently. Based on her work with Ashley and Neveah and with this being such a delicate matter, she would be an asset. But then again, its different when you’re helping a client versus your own family. Lines get blurred, there’s no boundaries, and emotions are heightened. This situation is above Chloe and Braden’s heads. His mom is the one adult I believe could help them navigate this if they let her in.

I cannot wait for Rita to move on from Sam. I think that Sam said all that stuff to her boyfriend for him to lay off her about the relationship they have. She didn’t mean any of what she said to him. The damage is done and I’m glad Rita overheard. Rita has been hoping on a prayer that Sam would eventually come around - whether she admits it or not. It's hurtful because of how many years she’s been waiting and being so happy to see her only to be let down like this is devastating. Hearing this from Sam’s mouth is the motivation she needs to let it go. Let it go and let it be what it was.

I love Bianca. Let me just say - when she told Nev to keep her door wide open when Stephano came over - I was like, yes ma’am! I love Seb and Ashley but the way they let Steph and Nev be in his room with the door closed, time and time again, uhh… no. LOL. I’ve always wondered about that. When Amelia was a teen, they did not allow her to have Kade or Connor in her room with the door closed. They were not playing those games. I knew Neveah was sicker. She looked it. Her lips told the story (great detail). Why is it so hard for Nevaeh to be truthful with Stephano? It has been years of this, no? Why does she struggle with it? When did this start happening? Was this prior to her getting cancer or post? When they were children? This is what is difficult for me to grasp. Why isn’t she comfortable enough or feel safe enough to just be honest with him? Stephano’s only major concern seems to be on being honest. Time and time again Nev continues to fail miserably at it. The funny thing is that Stephano does this too. It’s not unique to Nevaeh. He’s not totally upfront about what he feels or things he’s thought about. He’s actually very hesitant to voice them to her. What shocked me was a couple episodes ago, discovering that Steph has told Nev hardly anything about Kim after all these years. Not even in generalities.

roamerwanderer

The same questions I posed about Nev, I now question Steph. Why does he not feel safe enough or comfortable enough to confide in her about his interests, about his pain, about his dreams? Why does he put his thoughts on the back burner and not share them with Nev? He’s very honest about his feelings for her but these other things that make up who he is and who he is becoming - he is not forthcoming about. Why? Are they only truthful with each other when it concerns the love they have for one another? The love they share is a given and its entirely beautiful. Besides that though, what binds them? If memory serves, as children he was much more emotionally close to Neveah than he is now. As he became a teenager, something shifted. The dynamics were a tad different. In some ways I feel like Neveah stayed the same and she didn’t see the ways that Steph had subtly changed, grew, etc. Stephano notices the smallest things about Nev. I don’t think she notices them about him.

When it comes to Saanvi and Nev. I don’t know… Nev is putting Saanvi in such a terribly awkward position. The one person in the world who is privy to a life or death surgery that she has decided to follow through on. That is crazy pressure to put on someone who is not even your friend. Easier on a stranger than a friend…right? It's rough being in Saanvi's position. What do you do? Nev is bottling so much from everyone that loves her and who just might be supportive of this surgery. I know Kim said not to tell anyone especially Steph. There are ways to get around that. I felt a wave of sadness when she showed up at Saanvi’s doorstep and revealed to her how excruciating the pain is and how scared she is of it all. This is the most genuine Nev has been throughout this whole ordeal. This is the honesty that Steph wants from her and he could live with the rest. Unfortunately, I feel like that means being OK with rarely looking inwards towards himself. Instead always focusing on Nevaeh.

Hey Roamerwanderer, I have to agree with Steph and Nev do get A LOT of alone time together, which I have to say its a miracle that they haven't gone all the way, however, I have to disagree with Amelia and Kade because Seb and Ashley allowed Kade to move in and put them on them honor system to obey their rule......bad move and didn't work. Connor and Amelia were hardly alone together in a room since they didn't get to be together long. Now they did have one scene where Connor snuck into her after the kidnapping. I too, have wondered why Nev has such a hard time being upfront and truthful with Steph also. Not sure why she can't understand that honest is a big deal for Steph. Now, Steph has tried to talk to Nev about how he feels about Kim in the distracting my boyfriend episode, but Nev was being too self-absorbed to listen, and Steph walked out!!! And that was before the Cancer diagnosis. Since the diagnosis, its been all about Nev, although, Nev did ask him about his feeling concerning Kim in in the Say it to my face episode, and Steph talked about it a some.

I think things changed for Steph when Kim, pushed Ashley off that building and he had to watch her fall to what he thought would be certain death. Go back and watch season 4 and 5 and compare Season 4 Steph to season 5 Steph, you will see a huge change in Steph and his personality. Also, Steph seems to have a problem with dealing with huge emotions and seems to suppress a lot.....this is a seems to be a common thing in the 16 universe.....I.E. Amelia, Kade, Connor, and James.

Lianna Turner Christopher

Isn't it interesting that both Nev and Steph are more comfortable confiding and talking to Saanvi about hopes, dreams, and secrets than telling each other these things....hmmmm. The balance is seriously off with these two.

Braeden knows the position he puts Lynn in. Lynn puts boundaries on Braeden, which he needs. That's why he makes stupid choices, because he's throwing a fit. Essentially he runs to Lynn for help, looking pitiful. Just pure craziness 🤪 Nev, is being very human right now. When you lived your whole life healthy and capable, now being weak and fragile. It's a big hit to one's pride. Her actions are similar to older adults who finds themselves at the mercy of others. It's hard and hurtful. You don't want the people you care about see you like that. Their comfort makes you feel a certain type of way. When not to long ago you and your love ones were on equal footing. You rather talk to someone you never met before and didn't know you. It's help separate the the past to the now future. Someone who won't judge you or have pity in their eyes for you. Don't kill her please 🙏🏾 😔 Big props to the mothers of the show. They stood up and showed out. They spoke straight motherly facts👏🏾. Rita needs to move on, there are a lot more lesbian in these streets to be attached to one. She deserves it, more than these dramatic friends she has. Give Rita a cute romantic love that transcends her friend combustible relationships. 😁 Great job ladies!

For Nevaeh, Ashley is, has been, and will always be Steph's mom. There's no confusion or uncertainty there. From the moment she was born, Ashley is the only woman she has known as Seb's wife and the mother of the Diaz children. I wonder if that may play a small part in her not understanding sometimes where Steph is coming from with his complex feelings about Kim. Maybe her thinking on some level is that Ashley is his mom, why is there such doubt?
