Her insecurity over other members of her family being on the show really demonstrated how selfish she has been all this time. She tried to be this sweetheart during Season 1 (I think it was Season 1, ... the one with Danielle) until the finale when she flipped the table. She seemed like such a nice person to me despite all that.

But THIS season, her true colors came out. It was like she was digging a whole for herself during the reunion. And her favorite line, "Bring it on, b!tches! BRING it!!" is so played and overdone at this point.

But, yeah, I too, felt sorry for her during the reunion, because I hate to see anybody ganged up on by several people. It definitely felt like high school. But, as I said before, Teresa comes off as very fake to me. Whenever she's "crying", we don't ever see any tears. When she cried at the book signing to her brother, I saw no tears then. I saw no tears when she tried to cry on the reunion show. Now, I know that everybody's blood pressure doesn't go up when they cry, so you don't always get the typical reaction (i.e., red face, watery eyes, etc.), but for some reason, I just felt like Teresa was faking it the entire time so that she will SEEM sincere. She's not, folks, ... she's not.

Teresa is no saint but they are all manipulative, catty, insecure, bitchy, etc. etc. and I still don't like that Melissa!!! She just rubs me the wrong way, which I'm sure is how Teresa feels...lol! They're all trainwrecks!!! Can't wait for the reunion part 2...I love a good T.V. trainwreck...lol!

LMAO at "a good T.V. trainwreck"!!! And I kindly join your guilty pleasure.

Yeah, I think they're all manipulative ( ... except for maybe Kathy, I think). When Melissa cries, she has uncontrollable crocodile tears that drip and fall, which causes me to see her as more sincere than Teresa.

I've always thought Caroline was a bully until she slimmed down and suddenly became pretty, ... so now her character has become more noble, and her advice more sought after. It's still hard for me to watch her and Teresa go at each other's throats like this, but it was bound to happen, because Teresa is soooooo insecure about having to share the spot light with other members of her family. I feel even WORST about Caroline and Dina not speaking anymore. How the hell did THAT happen?! I hope they go into more of that during Part 2 of the reunion show.

And, while I know Dina is no longer on the show, I am actually subscribed to her FB fan page, and I think she has the absolute most beautiful heart. She loves adopting animals with disabilities, ... i.e., hairless cats, two legged dogs. She's just like me when it comes to a love of animals. I'm glad to see her turn her popularity into something that she can use for a cause of some sort as opposed to being linked to reality TV drama. Go, Dina!!
