REPLIES TO GEORGINA GROWING BALLS
@princessdejamars
Face palm ....Jaw drop....seriously never thought she'd find the "balls" to go through with it
@doka-chan
Georgie, my dear. I'm proud of you. BUT I only hope Vinnie will be able to forgive and forget... Because he was so very hurt. *fingers crossed*
@shhhushhh
In Bulgarian we have a saying "putting your hood after the rain". 😑 I'm sure you'll understand me no matter how stupid the transition sounds 😂❤
The English equivalent would probably be ‘shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted.’ The Bulgarian saying is much more relateable!

i'm feeling like there's some kind of twist with patrick and its not as simple as oceane. patiently waits for next update. either way the marriage seems unhealthy and she needs to free herself if she's not happy.
Patrick has yet to express any real interest in Océane...I think she has a sizeable crush on him, though!
@wannabecatwriter
Progress. I just feel like she and Patrick are a bad match.
Once upon a time they were happy...but they drifted apart, and neither of them was prepared to put in the work that was required to fix the marriage. Both had other priorities...Patrick his vineyards and wine importing business, and Georgina felt it was her duty to look after Bunty.
@ktarsims
I really wonder if Patrick will agree so easily.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I am very late commenting again but I wanted to add that I really enjoyed the little talk Roy had with Georgina :P It’s what she needed to hear!! I don’t know how I feel yet about her and Vinnie getting together again.. I understand what she was trying to do but I don’t blame him for leaving and feeling hurt!
Thank you dear heart!! Sometimes Roy does come good. Georgina definitely needed a wake up call, and of course Roy made sure he was the one to deliver it to her.
@summerreverie
I am interested to see how all this plays out between them (if she does pursue him). Also, it seems like there have been quite a few break-ups in your story lately (or as long as I’ve been reading anyway) and it’s always a relief for me to see characters finally deciding to make changes and get out of things when they aren’t working! I have hope that everyone will find some sort of peace eventually!
That’s so sweet of you to say. I have to say though that I love flawed characters, and drama and tension in stories and relationships, and moral ambiguity, and exploring how people react to stressful and difficult situations. In the current storyline involving Georgina and Vinnie and Patrick I am finding it so exciting and challenging trying to work out each character’s course of action, and how they would each react to things given their very different personalities...it’s what makes writing their story so much fun! Most of my characters are sent on very arduous emotional journeys and peace isn’t even guaranteed for them at the end...but I hope readers can say their journeys have at least been been entertaining! I can assure you though that I love nearly all of my chars very much and only want the best for them...eventually ;=)

Truly not a man of strong reactions. But I'm sure he knows she's right.
@mochasims
why does he suppress his emotions with georgina? acting so aloof, its no wonder she's looking for an emotional connection outside of the marriage. initially i felt her description of vinnie was cold-hearted and tmi, but i wonder if she did it purposely to get a reaction and as per usual he gave nothing. i'm scared of what will happen when he finally does release all those bottled up emotions.
It’s just the way he was brought up, to be stoic and keep a stiff upper lip. It is also his M.O to run away from difficult situations rather than face any sort of unpleasantness. Georgina’s father Ian is cut from exactly the same cloth. Isn’t it said that women always want to marry their fathers? ;=)
@princessdejamars
emotionally unavailable...man what a messed up situation for both of them...
@parystrange
I hope Vinnie tells her to fuck off too. Patrick is better off out of the marriage anyway, it seems they never spend any time together or as a family.
@rillensora
I'm really proud of Georgie. The divorce aside, it's going to be a far harder and far longer struggle to try and detox from a lifetime spent with a narcissist like Bunty. Not to mention the societal pressure and judgment, which Bunty will only be too happy to reinforce.
Yes, Georgie is in for a very bumpy ride, but I’m sure she will emerge a much better and stronger person!
@rillensora
As for Vinnie... I think some part of Vinnie probably knows Georgie didn't really mean it... but she did say those words herself, so until and unless she also takes the step of disowning them (again, with her own mouth), he's not going to try and fight that reality.
Georgina’s words definitely struck a raw nerve. And the reasons might be a bit more complex than just wounded male pride. You are absolutely correct, Georgina needs to accept full responsibility for her words, no matter what the motivation behind them was. And only then can she try and woo Vinnie back.
@rillensora
But it looks like Georgie is more than ready to take <i>THAT step herself now, so I wouldn't say getting Vinnie back at this point is a lost cause. Far from it, he might even appreciate that she was brave enough to not only take a risk, but also admit her mistake. That's always the hardest thing.</i>
@shhhushhh
I'm not so sure Patrick got convicted it's not JoJo she is going after. And I'm so not sure he won't be making phone calls left and right steering trouble not only for his wife but for people who has nothing to do with them and are extra touchy right now 🤨
@miraakles
You wanna adopt a polite detached voice but then get angry when she wants a divorce?! FUCK OUTTA HERE! GO GET YOUR MAN GEORGINA! I'M SO PROUD OF YOU! MARCH IN THERE, AND TELL VINNE YOU'RE HIS. IF HE SAYS NO? PUNCH HIM AND SAY IT AGAIN!
@ktarsims
I'm wondering if Patrick is kind of a male version of Sonia here. Sonia was more overtly emotional about it, but her reactions were very similar when she found out Roy wanted a divorce.
There are a lot of similarities between them, absolutely! Both come from repressed, ‘well-to-do’ families where it’s considered normal to never disclose one’s feelings, even in the most extreme of circumstances. Sonia has rebelled against her upbringing a lot more successfully than Patrick but still carries a lot of emotional and psychological baggage. We don’t know as much about Patrick’s family, except that his mother Margaret is a society maven like Bunty, and that he was raised in a household that valued emotional restraint and conservative ideals over individualism and freedom of expression.
@city-mouse
It never ceases to amaze me how you manage to make me feel things I never thought I would feel through this story of yours. If it isn't outstanding character development at work right here...
Thank you so much, Lovely!!!
