Jacqueline needs medication

It's not healthy for someone to lash out the way she does and hurts people. No one on this cast is perfect but I just found it extremely disturbing how at the end of the reunion she was almost on her knees begging to be Teresa's life. She always says the same things. Oh we don't have to be friends, blah blah blah but we can be cordial and have a laugh blah blah blah after what she's done all season long and the reunion. She outed Melissa and her nose jobs out of spite.

Teresa simply said that can happen but you need to stop with hurting her family and she goes right back but you always hurt me like a pathetic girlfriend that just won't get the message.

In all honesty, Teresa has said hurtful things to Jacqueline. That's a fact. Though, I never saw her hurt her on a premeditated stance. I never saw her go out of her way to attack her or hurt for no reason. She felt under on the porch way back when and Jacqueline kept pushing the issue. Then, when Jacqueline distanced herself, she went on the attack again. It's like she doesn't understand that some friends need space. Some friends don't want you prying into their financial business on camera. She just goes on and on. Even at the reunion she brought up something about the sprinkle cookies. It's like she has a folder specifically for Gorga and Giudice where she's researching everything about them to use against them but she wants to be their friend. It's disturbing. She's so like invested in their lives. Knows way, way too much. Still goes to her cousins and other friends when they're not speaking. That's not how friends act. She feels completely abandoned by Teresa, her so called friendship soul mate, yet she's always pushing her away with the crazy and vindictive stuff she pulls. She says the most hurtful things and then excuses it for being angry. It's always her go to.

I think it's been cemented that she's mentally unstable and Teresa and Melissa will be nice to her and such just so she doesn't go off the deep end again but we all know they can never trust her again.

I have to honestly say that Teresa does have a soft spot for Jacqueline because she never tried to lay a hand on her when she's angry. She will either try to walk away or say something that's supposed to be insulting lol but I never seen her lose it with her the way she has with Danielle and a few other people.

I agree and don't agree. I don't think Jaq is any worse in any way than the other ladies. Yes, she might be seeming to be a little unhinged this season, but I think that that might be an act in order to stay on the show, because perhaps her family needs the money. At least she doesn't act like a moron like Theresa. I do feel sorry for Jaq if she really wants to be friends with Theresa or Melissa because they are both ungrateful and heartless when it comes to loyalty or friendship. Nothing Jaq has done has warranted the way she has been ousted by them. And Theresa's accusing Jaq of turning her in to the feds, what a joke. Can you get any more disgusting? Theresa will always sing the "I'm too stupid to have known what I was doing" lie, and she's not fooling ANYONE. She knew, and she's a liar about it.

The reason Theresa does not attack Jaq is because Theresa has actually learned a thing called consequences. It took a long separation from her family in prison to penetrate her brain, but it worked. If she attacks Jaq she violates her parole. It has nothing to do with personal growth, it's just realizing there are consequences now, plain and simple.

But Chris finally admitted they were talking to some people that were involved in the federal case during the reunion. That's where Teresa got her suspicions from. When she mentioned it, Chris felt the need to lay it out on the table.

"I never hear you speak and when you do you apologize for saving me?"

I wouldn't say he admitted anything, he just reminded Theresa of what happened. She has a way of hearing facts and discarding them because they don't fit into her sob story. He said explicitly that he had kind of tried to prevent Theresa and Joe's trouble. He (Chris) was told that a real estate guy was going to sue Joe and Theresa, he(Chris) called Joe to give him a heads up and to try to arrange a sit down and maybe settlement, and Joe told Chris to tell the guy to "f#ck off". So Chris relayed that message. That's the end of the story, the end of Chris trying to help. And instead of Theresa being GRATEFUL that Chris tried to save them, she is fricken idiot who will NEVER take responsibility for her crime and fraud. Yes, she did her time, which she was forced to do. But no one is forcing her to actually admit responsibility, so she never will; she will plead "I'm just too stupid" forever. Yes, she's a moron, but she is smart enough to know exactly what she was doing, and it was out of greed, it was illegal, and it bilked thousands out of innocent people.

I NEVER would have tried to help that horrible woman out of a jam, out of the fraud that she had committed, hurting others, yet here was a friend throwing them a line. They were too stupid to take him up on it, so that real estate person (who probably got screwed by Joe and Theresa) called the feds. Imagine that your family was one that lost even $20,000.00 and you never got it back, and all the headaches that produced for you, and here she is still living in that giant house, denying any responsibility except that she's "so cute and stupid, and everyone else shouda went away too". She's gross.

Jac is bipolar

[–] mcbaps 8 years ago

Jac is creepy,childish, and extremely vindictive. I would not be surprise if she has a personality disorder or is very very unsecure. I never seen Tre do anything to Jac on the show; I think Jac over thinks and she wants to control everything, and when she does not get it, she goes crazy. That could be due to the fact that she needs to stay on the show for money,but I could see her acting like that without being on a show. She lies as much as the other housewives, and somehow her and husband think they are better than everyone else.I do believe she wants to do the right thing sometimes,but people like her husband or production gets in her head a lot. She says she a "fact checker", but truthfully I think she jumps to conclusions thinking everyone is out to get her. She has this LOVE HATE thing going on with Tre too.

[–] DonutLover 8 years ago

In my opinion most people on reality housewife shows have some disorder. Narcissism at the least. If you haven't seen Tre do anything to Jaq on the show, then either you haven't been watching (no offense) or we just see things based on who we like. I don't mean to be rude, sorry. And, maybe it's because I hate Theresa that I do see what she does. She does stuff all the time to Jaq! She started in right away in the kitchen, when she and Joe came over to Jaq's for the first time after prison. She wanted to put Jaq down, have her little say and have Jaq say nothing. But Jaq did something she doesn't always do; she stood up for herself, and that sent Theresa running. Theresa dumped her as a friend so many times, based on things to to me (again, maybe because I can't stand her) were all HER fault, not Jaq's.

Jaq is not perfect, but Tre has treated her very badly, not like any friends should do. Dolores and ........Simmy?..the crying one point it out often.

You may be right, I'm just expressing my opinion too. And, I happen to believe that Chris and Jaq are way better people than Tre and her husband (and even Melissa) so I have no problem with that.

About the love/hate thing, you are right. It's easy to have that when you have a friend who is really, really stupid and mean, and predictable when they don't get their way. That's Theresa, and I wish Jaq would just stop wanting to be her friend.

I completely agree, Donut. I'm not a fan of any of them, and I see Jaq as the lesser evil/crazy. Tre is obsessed with turning herself into a victim instead of a criminal and Jaq seems to be the only one trying to hold her accountable for her actions in even the tiniest way.

[–] mcbaps 8 years ago

DonutLover you are right! She did start with Jac in the kitchen,however, Jac did not get that she was expressing her feelings. I am very indifferent to Tre right now, but back when she came on, I disliked her a lot. On the other hand, I want to like Jac,but she makes it incredible hard to do so. She is hypocrite especially when it comes to Tre's bankruptcy. Only difference between her and Tre, is that Tre was too stupid to get caught- plus Jac stole from a business and Tre stole from a bank. Jac deflects lot and it's very annoying to watch. Jac still gives me the creeps ; she is too consumed with being right.
