Nick and Jessica Jessica's Romantic Dinner Part 1

[@AmandasGlambition]

So basically, Jessica ends up divorcing Nick Lachey, married another guy, has two great kids, becomes a great mother, and then makes million off a clothing line sold at every Macy's and Lord and Taylor in the country. Yeah. She definitely did do well after Nick!

Before I got married, my husband and I had a conversation about marriage. I told him I’m scared to be a wife because I don’t know much. I remember him being a sweetheart and telling that it’s okay and that he will help me and teach me. And guess what? He would cook with me and do things with me. I can now pretty much do anything as a wife. I’m happy that my husband was so loving and understanding towards me. So as I watch this show, it’s really disappointing to see that he’s not much of a help. Marriage is about being a team and making compromises for each other!

He's totally helping! He took care of basically everything else in the house! She was the one that wanted to cook alone for him. In every other episode he's maintaining the property, planning trips, keeping her organized. Her parents spoiled her (by her own admission) which is why she doesn't know how to do anything so I can't really blame her either.

[@sweetiepie9411]

[@dominiquemcclaney128]

I think you're right. A lot of what your saying makes sense. Its very good to be patient, understanding, and encouraging when someone is still trying to learn how to do different things. It helps make things go along more smoothly.

[@dominiquemcclaney128]

What your saying makes sense too. But a little encouragement along the way doesnt hurt. If you make someone feel like they can do something then sometimes their abilities in it can get better and they begin to feel more confident in themself. Patience is also important and understanding.

[@sweetiepie9411]

Dominique Mcclaney Yeah it really does depend on the effort the person puts into learning certain things. You can't change a person who doesn't wanna change so yeah lol.

[@dominiquemcclaney128]

+sweetiepie9411 That is true too. But once the person wants to change and wants to learn then what I said and what the other guy says can come into play. If the person doesnt want to change or learn then nothing can be done.

Watching these it just doesn't make sense why nick even married her. He wanted a housewife, a wife that was domesticated and would do everything for him. He knew she was younger, spoiled, and knew essentially nothing about doing things herself. He expected her to change that first year of marriage and never gave her time to grow.

That's what you got from this vid?! HE literally does everything. She doesn't, she said so herself on an interview. Her parents should have at least taught her the basics so she can survive on her own. Knowing how to cook doesn't make you a housewife. Learning life skills is a GOOD thing! lol...

[@purewoody1623]

I think it's a mistake to marry someone who is not willing to be a wife. IMO, a wife is the nurturer of a family. Her role is to have kids, raise them, cook, clean and be a (GASP) good mother. She keeps the balance within. The husband keeps the balance without. He provides and protects his loved ones. Many have forgotten this balance. Women have forgotten their valuable society roles and are instead insisting on taking masculine roles. Just like a key fits a lock, a woman should stay in her lane and do what she does best. And here is the thing... there is NO SHAME in that. It is an honorable, and respected role. It is so VITAL.... but most of you have forgotten that. Father Time will show you individually that what I'm sayin is true... When your ovaries dry up and you miss your window, you'll be alone and completely unfulfilled. And here's a bit more honesty for you - - if you're husband is doing that for you, he's failing his role as a man. You will eventually lose all respect for him... Sex will drop... and you'll look for a more alpha male to put you in your place. Turn back before it's too late LOL... or not. It's your life.

[@heyarnold1611]

[@defiedreality8814]

Age isn't always a factor, much of it is how someone is brought up, the way people around them lived, learning what they can learn and then knowing what they want. Britney and Jessica were both very innocent in personality, Brit could be very much like a child most of the time and she became the most famous woman in the world at 16 years old. Thing is she knew how to live in a house, clean it, cook, etcs in fact she said as far as cleaning she was OCD about it and only had a maid one day a week due to the house size. And then she had two kids practically back to back while the paparazzi were all over her and given as much money as she had she could of paid someone to do everything, Britney stated in an interview she wouldn't buy a thousand dollar sweater even though that is nothing to her, means she looks at the prices and if they are insane for regular people she wouldn't buy it. I think the only time she would spend big on clothes is if they were for special events. She wannted a loving marriage and kids and pretty much had that when she was not much older than Jessica. Her only issue was pretty much things outside of the home, trusting the wrong people, etc because when she wasn't taking carre of things she was just a very fun person, she knew how to run a house but she was easily pressured and taken advantage of when it came to the business which I think Nick would have been happy to play protective hero in that department, I would have liked for them to have gotten together instead. To me Justin is more like Jessica, like a spoiled teenage boy, out of control, getting revenge on people, his MV when Britney and him split, though when they were together he wasn't like that so I am sure Jessica's loyalty would have been better suited for him. Point is, each girl should of gotten the other guy.
