Erica is vile, sorry not sorry (RANT)
It's not really an update or anything, but honestly, I'm getting tired of seeing her on the screen. I have never disliked a person I do not know in real life, the way I dislike (what I see of) this person.
From the second she stepped onto the show, she seemed to be displaying classic symptoms of MCS - Main character syndrome. This false sense of grandiose is really grating me, from claiming to be the 'strongest married couple' after a literal week of marriage, to claiming that people don't like her and it (of course) MUST be because she's a 'good looking girl'. Delusional. (The 'everybody is jealous of me' trope is very boring now). Her getting upset with Jordan for simply saying she was a bit harsh with him, rather than trying to show any type of support and comfort her husband -which she always claims to love very much- was the third strike. She sat there and acted like a victim when she had an issue with Tasha and Ella, acting as though she was being bullied, but is always sat there with a smirk when other couples are going through issues. Constantly inserting herself, making unnecessary comments.
I'm all for being honest, but the way Jordan just sat there and blurted that to Bianca was.. humiliating for her at the very least. I don't mind if he wanted to let her know, but he could have approached that with some more sensitivity, had a chat with JJ, had one with Bianca and gave them the opportunity to work through that themselves, or in a way that was not embarrassing for Bianca. One thing I noticed was Erica's smirk when Jordan said this. A real 'girl's girl' would have either stepped in, or taken Bianca to the side in private! She smiled with glee, she was most definitely enjoying Bianca's embarrassment. I also noticed her smirk after Luke and her husband had that altercation.
She is incredibly self centred, refuses to take accountability for anything inside or outside of her relationship. Judges everybody's relationship, but cannot stand the thought of being criticised herself. She is easily threatened, and her saying she's had 'issues like this before' only prove that she is the common denominator in all of those issues. Perhaps people don't dislike you because you are a 'good looking girl', maybe that's more to do with the fact that you're a bit of an arsehole really.
Of course, I don't know her personally, and she could be lovely in person! But she comes off absolutely vile on the show. It's funny that people will label that Tasha girl as being aggressive for one blow up, but Erica continues with her terrible, nasty, mean-girl behaviour and people label her a victim. Tired of it. The level of immaturity to sit there, after she disrespected somebody, and refuse to apologise for her own childish behaviour is beyond me. After DEMANDING an apology from a peer on the show.. Major red flag for me. Your own husband says you're harsh at times and you go behind his back and state that his feelings towards you are simply a reflection of his feelings toward himself, call him insecure and absolve yourself of all responsibility. I've dealt with an individual like this in my life, and there are certain things she does that just put me under the impression that she's not this sweet woman people so desperately try to paint her out to be. She revels in other people's misery, lives for the drama.. I've just gotten to episode 25 but good gosh, get this lady off the screen!
