My God, people have way too much time on their hands!
I was just about to say this. Also jovi and yara are MASTER manipulators of the screen. This is a role they are playing and y’all are eating it up. they must be good at it if someone took the time to write this
And someone took the time to downvote you! Pathetic…
I think there’s some sort of pill for this.
This is brilliant
Thank you!
Touché! 😆
AI getting good
Hilarious. I’m a behaviorist and definitely thought this was reddit glitching by showing an academic-based behavior article in the wrong subreddit lmao
Are there any treatment options or promising avenues of research currently?
I believe Dr. Yara Zaya is currently the leading researcher in the field, but has yet to come up with any definitive cure unfortunately. Reducing alcohol is believed to be helpful though.
Was he an only child raised by a divorced mother who put him in beauty pageants? That could explain some of it.
I think we allll knew someone like Jovi at point or another. Could never imagine being married to that
Jovi and Ed are both so undesirable in all ways possible I don’t understand how either has a woman. Jovi is so unattractive and goofy, like, why?
This was so fun and entertaining. Deliciously wicked and so deserved by Jovi. Thank you for the time and care it took putting this together.
Thank you this kind of men need to learn their lesson yeah we get frustrated but don’t treat your women like crap by getting drunk and going to strip clubs I’m not saying that’s wrong but you have responsibilities and duties as a father!
It is not that deep wow
Wow, you clearly don’t know what many of these words means and it shows. Isn’t there a rule here abt not diagnosing people…especially if you have no idea what you’re talking abt
No, there isn’t, but there should be. This practice is absurd and is out of control. In the author’s defense, at least, this is not a real diagnosis, just a bunch of BS that makes no sense at all.
