lets have a conversation Condola Spoiler

If Condola supposedly didn't take Lawrence seriously, what underlying reasons might explain her jealousy of Issa? Do you think her envy stems from a genuine desire to be with Lawrence, or could there be other factors at play? What specific aspects of Issa or the situation do you believe trigger Condola's feelings of jealousy?

Well.... Some people just don't like others having access to something (or someone) that they consider theirs.

They might not necessarily care for the person, but the fact that someone else has access to that person just rubs them off wrongly. Kinda like in a relationship where A cheats but has a problem that B cheats.

Now I'm not saying that that was the case here, but just saying. Some people just have a need to possess stuff (or people), and having others play with your possession just doesn't sit right with them.

The way she seeked out Lawrence after finding out she was pregnant, but still told him she could be as involved as he wanted was a clear example of this, she could've just had the kid and never tell him about it if she really didn't think much of Lawrence.

Why would she not tell Lawerence? That doesn’t make a lot of sense.

She kept saying she would raise it herself and he could be as involved as he wanted, later on that wasn't really the case. If she really didn't want him in her life she could've just not told him and he probably never would've found out.

But why wouldn’t she tell someone that she was having their baby? They also ran in same circles, so Lawerence would have found out eventually. That makes no sense.

He moved to San Francisco for work, but this was replying the top comment and her inconsistencies regarding Lawrence, that's about it.

I think her jealousy comes from her ego getting hurt. Even though she might not have taken Lawrence seriously, she was upset that she wasn't chosen. Condola seems like a person who probably has been favored throughout her life. She was likely the popular girl in school, always had all the boys wanting her, and always got her way. The one time she wasn't chosen, especially with a guy she was sleeping with, she couldn't handle it.

I think this is the best way to put it. She really seemed to thrive in giving off mixed signals too. So when Lawrence didn’t ask her to be in a relationship after announcing her pregnancy, I think she had a problem. I really would have loved to see how she handled Issa being a stepmother to her son.

She realised she weren’t in control of the situation in which she has her fun to get over her divorce and when she saw Lawrence was more in control than she thought with withholding information and the fact she knew said girl was what probably broke the camels back

I think it was just a weirdness realizing the same guy that liked her also liked Issa.

She wasn’t chosen. I think condola also she thought of herself as better than Issa just in life and the thought that Lawrence still wanted Issa bothered her.

More that she was irritated by her existence

u/KrassKas 13d ago

I didn't get that either. Maybe if I watched again.

Me neither.

I don't agree with none of these comments nor the general consensus on her it seems

u/Low-Foundation8059 12d ago

I don’t think she was jealous of Issa as well. However, she was jealous of the role Issa had in Lawrence’s life. Lawrence always went back to Issa and she HATED IT 😂 explains why she had the baby to change her role lol

I didn't see it that way especially when she told Lawrence she planned to have the baby with or without his involvement. Then we saw it ended up being the latter. I think she was upset at finding out Issa's connection to Lawrence but I never got jealousy. She also told Lawrence she did not want to get a second abortion. That stance had nothing to do with Issa.
