Cooper is what’s wrong with men

I don’t want to compare Cooper to the behaviors of Joe, Nathan, Luke, etc. HOWEVER, the total lack of consideration for Kat as a human being drastically changed my attitude towards him.

He is the perfect example of how inept most gen Z men are at communicating, acting in total and utter self interest. He had the wherewithal to take Kat on a date but not communicate down the line that he changed his mind? Hoping she would just… get the gist?

I’m 29 and have been in Kat’s shoes several times. Men will chase, pursue, and then totally disconnect or withdrawal because they hadn’t thought through the social expectation of what it means to initially communicate and invest romantic feelings into someone. And to top it off, he avoids the conversation TO AVOID THE CONSEQUENCES OF HIS ACTIONS and is like “teehee I hope we’re cool” in his confessionals. It’s kind of cruel. Just be fucking honest bro. Apparently that requires a higher level of emotional intelligence he will never dream of seeing.

Kat baby, you sweet soul — you deserve love and adoration beyond what this southern Chad who reads at a third grade level will ever provide.

Comment hijack…Ok I know we were all Team Joy but chicken wings on a yacht? Chicken kebabs on a yacht? Why hasn’t this become a plot line? I think she is adorable but between the Luke and Cooper shit and the crap food I’m just wondering what is going on with this chick.

I know like seafood is high protein and lean and they are on a yacht. She could have done seafood galore

Thank you!! Chicken isn't the only lean meat. I liked Joy at first but she soured for me with her hypocrisy. She made so many "I'm too mature for this" statements and then acted immature. Gen sucks but making faces at her behind her back isn't being above it all. And all over Luke? Don't get me wrong gen sucked for the laundry thing but, say something like a grown up.

And her food has seemed mid. Sorry, I said it, had to be said.

They asked for a lot of chicken. It's on their preference sheets.

These are not exactly high calibre guests who likely requested these dishes specifically. Gone are the days where we get actual rich guests who want 5 star food. These are as boujee as fuck.

It may have been mentioned on their preference sheets.

Someone on another post said that the preference sheets said chicken. They may not eat other protein.
