| I hope they both wait at least until the divorce is final before they settle in to something serious with someone else.
Lawyers love that kind of thing to hold against you during the proceedings. That’s when things get nasty.
I don’t think Jen will date for a very long time. |

| Yikes .. the Ross clan need to hear it clear as day ... children are NOT bandaids for a failing marriage.
I think I gave my self whiplash shaking my head as I typed that.
I really hope Jen gets her head on straight and stops resenting her kids. Divorce is hard, but having a parent that hates your existence is hell! |

| I’m in Canada .. so I don’t know how divorce goes in the US.
But I had to wait 90 days to file. I didn’t have an attorney to file the initial paperwork. Once the paper work was served we both had to retain lawyers.
It was a VERY long 2 year process. Nothing moves fast in court. I hope she’s ready for the divorce marathon. |

| As much as I sympathize with her... I gotta say it...
WHY did they have children?!?!
They waited so long, struggled with the fertility issues and still went ahead and had 2 kids!
We all know there must have been issues before the kids. Maybe they should have focused their attention there first. It just seems incredibly selfish ..
These things just don’t happen overnight |

|  well......
I feel for her. I just did the same thing 4 years ago. I was married young (21) we were together 6 years and married for 10. 3 kids and I left him. Her demeanour in that video was similar to mind. I called it “survival mode”.
When this divorce gets rolling the real emotions and struggle come with it.
Just saying from personal experience.. I left because my ex had cheated. I stayed in the marriage a long time to make it work and just couldn’t anymore, too much resentment.
This board is going to implode all weekend long.

Very well worded🙌🏻
I totally think she had a vision of what she wanted her life like and Don was the only one that could make that happen.
For his age at the time, he obviously did well for himself. I just think it’s sick that is almost seemed pre meditated on Jen to use him.
In one video I think don had said something along the lines that “Jen didn’t know how to spend money” and that’s why the allowance came to be. Ohhh Don she had the wool pulled over your eyes. She knew how to spend.. she just didn’t want to be questioned about it.
I feel really bad for whomever they retain as a divorce lawyer (if it happens) .. Jen will ring him out for every cent!

| I forgot to add in regards to my last post. The husband tag from early on in her videos.. I think the question was “how did you meet”
Don responded in high school, but felt Jen was “out of his league” they didn’t officially date until college
cough- I mean when Don made big $$$-
and then Jen felt Don was in her league 😒..
Anyways, I don’t think there was any actual love in that relationship. Jen saw the opportunity to never have to lift a finger and work.. Don was an easy ticket to the comfy life of excess. I feel like she may of used her “above league” status to manipulate him. Don had to jump at her every demand because he felt it would risk loosing his “trophy wife”
Personally, from the pics that have surfaced on many forums.. Jen didn’t come off as some trophy, she looked like an average teen.. unless her family name was status?
I really wonder what she would have done had Don not been an option. I can’t imagine her working any type of career that would have given her current lifestyle. Thoughts? |

| I forgot about the “spice haul” snark she did on Don.
I think in one of the couple/husband tag they did, one question was “what is something you wish your partner would get rid of” Don must have chewed his tongue off not answering that honestly lol ...
she literally has packed that entire house to the rafters with bins of “collections and seasonal decor” (for seasons I didn’t even know existed 🤣) and he was banished to his man cave to not complain about anything she ever had.
I don’t overly think Don is a saint.. but I am sure he has been on the brink of insanity for years! - bring in the Tito’s and cran!
Also... no wonder his back needed surgery, him hauling literal tones of weight from the basement and attic in bins for every holiday ... yikes! 🤯 |

| I have been doing a rewatch of some of the very old Jen vlogs ... holy cow.. now that we are all patiently anticipating their relationship fall.. the digs she took at him in videos is super cringy!
I don’t know if she ever really loved him.. or just fell in love with the life he provided her.
So many clips of eye rolling when he would say or do something she didn’t like. If it was caught on 10min vlogs, you know if prob is going on a lot when the camera isn’t rolling. After 10 years I could see why don would want out.... he prob should have done it BEFORE kids.. just sayin |

| I was just watching her very old organization video of her “under the stairs storage” she shows lots of clips of the basement layout. Don has an office, there is a mini kitchen, home gym,a bathroom and a large living space, including a pool table. That space would be ample for a comfortable play room.. and you know Jen could have the most high tech video monitor if she had to leave the kids to play alone.
I think leaving the house as it was and making unused rooms for the kids would have made the adjustment phase easier on both of them. They went from a “free” couple to running a home daycare. It’s too much! |

| I have a theory on how their relationship went downward...
I think Jen to a degree was feeling pressure to have kids. Maybe not directly, but from observation.. she follows the Ross lead on EVERYTHING!
So they had the kids and reality set in after CC was born.
Jen doted on Don and he did on her. It was almost a parent like dynamic between the two of them and they relied heavily on each other in their relationship. Don and Jen kinda drifted apart because the focus was not on each other like it had been for so long. She went on to make some fairly huge life changes (food, schedules etc) and left everything from their past in the storage bins in the basement. Literally
I honestly believe that BOTH would have been happier being the couple they started as and not have the kids in the middle. I have heard that a lot of couples struggled after kids come around and their lives were completely turned over the second CC arrived. It was too much change in a short period of time.
I don’t think they will make it honestly. |

| What if Jen was the cheater?!
Maybe that’s why she’s avoiding dons family/family functions?! 🤷🏻♀️ |

| Maybe she’s more than ok with this potential divorce on the horizon... they could split the kids 50/50 and she would be even closer to her “ideal” life?
She always was happiest in her own bubble 🤷🏻♀️ |

| | I think don was raised in a more tightly knit family life... I think his parents attended everything with their kids. Jen not so much. She probably doesn’t even realize how far removed from the “family” life she is. She relies way too much on the “family” raising her kids and being present. |
