										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-text-align-center"><em><strong>Here are the three most obsessive birth months.</strong></em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-november">1. November</h2>



<p>You can&#8217;t talk obsession without mentioning November. While those born in November may put on the front that they don&#8217;t care and are as tough as nails, this water sign is actually extremely sensitive and takes everything to heart. November native&#8217;s obsessive ways often present in the form of extreme possessiveness over those they hold close, especially a romantic partner.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-july">2. July</h2>



<p>Those born in July are deeply intuitive and emotional water sign who cares just a little too much about their loved ones. This loyalty often teeters into obsessive territory. While those born in July may believe they&#8217;re just being nurturing, it can sometimes be a little bit too much for others.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-may">3. May</h2>



<p>Stubborn May natives are a fixed earth sign who knows exactly what they want and will stop at nothing to make sure they get it. This can lead to obsessive tendencies in work, relationships, and personal projects.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-scorpio">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Scorpio</h2>



<p>Like everything else, Scorpios give their all to their friendships. So, when one doesn’t work out, they have difficulty processing why. It takes a lot for them to let someone in. And once they do, they put a lot of effort towards them. They’re heartbroken at any loss. But letting go of a friend will always hurt the most.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-aries">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aries</h2>



<p>Aries become invested in the things they love. Especially when it’s their friends. Like Scorpio, they put in everything they have in their friendships. So, when they lose one, they take it to heart. They’ll have a hard time letting go of the memories and the love shared between them. They’ll need time to process the loss and accept it for what it is.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-taurus">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taurus</h2>



<p>Taurus is incredibly sentimental. But like Scorpio, they don’t let in people easily. It takes a lot for them to make a friend. So, when it doesn’t work out, they become incredibly disappointed. Connections mean a lot to them. And they’re usually in it for the long haul when they make one. So, when they say goodbye, they know it’ll always sting.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="4-pisces">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pisces</h2>



<p>Pisces sees their friends as family. So, when they lose one after years of being so close, it will undeniably hurt them. They will treat it like any loss and grieve all the memories shared. They’ll find it hard to let go of the inside jokes, the times when they felt the most loved and when they were there when no one was.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="5-cancer">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cancer</h2>



<p>Friendships are near and dear to Cancer. They don’t take breakups lightly, especially when they’ve grown up with that person. Their friends are part of who they are, and they keep them close to their hearts. They can’t imagine a life without them. So, when it’s time to let go of one, they take it as hard as if they broke up with a boyfriend. They’ll find it difficult not to call them, see them or let them know of any good news.&nbsp;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Fan theories are running rampant online about Bishop removing Rue&#8217;s DEA line from her phone, but there&#8217;s something fishy about this whole chain of custody.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>Fan theories are running rampant online about Bishop removing Rue&#8217;s DEA line from her phone, but there&#8217;s something fishy about this whole chain of custody.</p>



<p>We never see Bishop return the phone to Rue after he takes it from her in the car. It just magically reappears, but something feels off about every scene that follows.</p>



<p>First she bullies Faye into betraying Wayne and Laurie in order for Alamo to keep her alive (while still buried up to her neck in dirt).</p>



<p>She just happens to record the exact conversation the DEA needs. The one that could get her out of a 20 year prison sentence.</p>



<p>Then Leslie, who hasn&#8217;t answered Rue&#8217;s calls all season, triggering her return to drug use, just happens to ring her while she&#8217;s praying in church.</p>



<p>But then the contradiction arrives. Rue tells Laurie Alamo took her phone. And then we immediately cut to see Jules getting sent to voicemail while G tells an unnamed woman on the phone he wanted her to be his &#8220;BM&#8221; or baby momma, to which she strongly responds in the negative.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" height="1280" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png?w=850" alt="" class="wp-image-1201451" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/6-image-grid-8.png?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a></figure>



<p>It&#8217;s that moment that triggers the most suspicion. Why would G be having an almost identical conversation to Rue&#8217;s last fight with Jules? Did Rue leave the phone in the car on purpose, on accident, or was it never returned to her in the first place? Has every interaction with the phone been out of chronological order, or simply a figment of her imagination?</p>



<p>Lexi brings Rue&#8217;s reliability as a narrator into question in the same episode. On the surface it looks lethal game of telephone from Rue to Lexi to Maddy to Alamo about Rue&#8217;s involvement with the DEA, but what if all of these little moments of incongruity are actually supposed to flag to us that something else is happening?</p>



<p>Every moment since Rue&#8217;s phone was taken away has felt like a wish fulfillment fantasy for a young drug addict whose life has fallen deeper and deeper into chaos. The Hail Mary from Faye. The win for the DEA. The reconciliation with an estranged mother. It all just seems way too good to be true.</p>



<p>With Euphoria&#8217;s track record for incorporating meta-moments, it would come as no surprise if we&#8217;ve been living in Rue&#8217;s fever dream, or even Lexi&#8217;s film or TV script for the entire season.</p>



<p>The finale airs this Sunday, May 31.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Leo Leos is the best person to turn to for advice. The reason is that they’re not afraid to take risks and live fully. So, a lot of wisdom comes from the lives they’ve led.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="leo">Leo</h2>



<p>Leos is the best person to turn to for advice. The reason is that they’re not afraid to take risks and live fully. So, a lot of wisdom comes from the lives they’ve led. The fire sign has learned a few hard lessons, whether love or life and is willing to share its knowledge with anyone who wants it.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="capricorn">Capricorn</h2>



<p>Wisdom is a Capricorn’s innate trait. It’s who they are. That’s why they’re known to tread carefully in their actions. From preferring a slow love to their desires for ultimate stability, the earth sign will always think before they speak or act on something.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="scorpio">Scorpio</h2>



<p>Scorpios are highly intelligent and emotionally in tune with themselves. Like Leo, you can also count on them for advice. They live their lives with an all-or-nothing mindset, and with that comes many valuable life lessons learned. Whether you’re going through a breakup or about to make a big life decision, you can always count on them to steer you in the right direction.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="sagittarius">Sagittarius</h2>



<p>Sagittarius lives well and thoroughly. They’re knowledgeable and most open to new experiences on this list. So, you can bet they’ve got a lot of wisdom they don’t mind sharing. Along with the fact that they’ve got a heap of positivity, their minds are full of the most refreshing insights anyone could hear about.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="aquarius">Aquarius</h2>



<p>Intelligent and social, Aquarius’ wisdom comes from the experiences they’ve gone through and have yet to witness. They’re thinkers and have the most enthusiasm for what they still have to learn. Talk to one, and you’ll walk away with newfound knowledge you never thought to think about.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="gemini">Gemini</h2>



<p>Geminis are the most curious in the zodiac. So, their wisdom comes from the books they read, their experiences, and the people they&#8217;ve met along the way. They like to look beyond the bigger picture and discover what&#8217;s left to find. Go to them for advice, and you&#8217;ll leave with a lot of knowledge you didn&#8217;t walk in with before.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="is-style-introduction">Part 1 of the Summer House season 10 reunion aired Monday night, and the cast spent most of it dismantling Amanda Batula and West Wilson&#8217;s joint statement in real time.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" height="1280" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1201447" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Chris-Lavergne-Cairo-May-27-2026-3.png?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></figure>



<p>Here are the four moments people can&#8217;t stop talking about.</p>



<p><strong>1. Ciara told Amanda she went &#8220;from being married to being one of West&#8217;s side bitches.&#8221;</strong></p>



<p>The line landed so hard that Andy Cohen had to step in and call it unnecessary. Ciara didn&#8217;t take it back. She followed it up by calling Amanda &#8220;a snake in the grass&#8221; who moves &#8220;silent but deadly,&#8221; and accused her of picking the one guy in New York City who would hurt her the most.</p>



<p><strong>2. Amanda admitted she flat-out lied to Ciara&#8217;s face.</strong></p>



<p>Ciara read their text exchange aloud, including the moment she asked Amanda point-blank if she and West had hooked up, made out, held hands under the table, or had sex. Amanda&#8217;s answer at the time was no. Her answer at the reunion: &#8220;I lied, 100% lied.&#8221; She and West also claimed they didn&#8217;t sleep together until after their March 31st joint statement, which the internet is not buying and also just sounds completely insane on EVERY SINGLE level.</p>



<p><strong>3. West defended making out with Ciara on the final night of summer by calling it &#8220;ear kisses.&#8221;</strong></p>



<p>Andy asked West how his approach with Ciara was different this time around. West said, &#8220;not having sex was huge.&#8221; Ciara then pointed out they were still exchanging flirty texts and having sleepovers through the fall. When pressed on the backyard makeout in the finale, West&#8217;s defense was that it was ear stuff, not mouth stuff. Ciara told him to his face, &#8220;you&#8217;re so good at pulling girls.&#8221;</p>



<p><strong>4. KJ revealed he was hospitalized for self-harm and spent months in recovery.</strong></p>



<p>KJ told the group he went to the hospital for a week in the fall, then spent a few months in a recovery program, where he was diagnosed with BPD. Mia and Ciara visited almost every day. &#8220;I&#8217;m grateful that I&#8217;m here alive, &#8217;cause I could have not been,&#8221; KJ said. Jesse Solomon was visibly emotional. It was the only moment of the night the whole couch agreed on.</p>



<p>Part 2 airs next week.</p>

<p>God,</p>



<p>It&#8217;s been hard for so long that I&#8217;ve almost forgotten what it feels like to hope that things could get better. I&#8217;ve been stuck in survival mode, bracing for the next blow, waiting for the other shoe to drop. But today, I&#8217;m choosing to believe that maybe, just maybe, things are finally turning around.</p>

<p>Help me trust that the worst is behind me. Help me believe that the pain I&#8217;ve been carrying is preparing me for something lighter, something better, something worth all the waiting. When my mind spirals back into fear and doubt, anchor me in the truth that you&#8217;re working things out for my good — even when I can&#8217;t see it yet.</p>

<p>God, let me feel the shift. Let me see the signs that breakthrough is closer than I think. Restore my hope. Renew my faith. Remind me that just because it&#8217;s been hard doesn&#8217;t mean it will stay that way. Things are getting better. I&#8217;m getting stronger. And the best is still ahead.</p>



<p>Help me believe it, God. Help me trust it.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">In this prayer, Karin Hadadan invites us to seek God’s help to find true contentment by trusting Him in the present moment. Resonating with this, Rebecca Simon’s <em><strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">Finding God Every Day</a></strong></em> shows how to notice God’s steady presence in every circumstance. Read the prayer below and embrace contentment in God today.</p>



<p>There are moments for everyone where, even with so much to be thankful for, the heart still feels a little restless. Maybe peace isn’t about having more, but about being with God in the moment. <em>Pray this with me and feel His peace. </em></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" height="1280" width="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png?w=850" alt="" class="wp-image-1161282" style="aspect-ratio:0.8003848003848004;width:522px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 522px) 100vw, 522px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rebecca_-Simon_Christian_Devotionals_Books12.png?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Experience the peace that comes from relying on God. <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">See how in this read.</a></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>Dear God, </strong><br><br>Thank you for your abundant blessings in my life. But the truth is, despite these gifts, I still struggle with discontentment. Open my eyes to your perspective so I can transcend my limiting thoughts. Help me find sufficiency in this present moment and security in you alone, not in changing circumstances or external conditions. Guide me today to practice the contentment that Paul discovered—a peace that transcends understanding. <br><br><strong>Amen.</strong></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">Finding peace starts with surrendering our worries to the universe and trusting that God’s guidance will meet us in the middle of our uncertainty. Best-selling author of <em><em><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><strong>Finding God Every Day</strong></a></em></em>, Rebecca Simon, reminds us to trust God’s timing, embrace patience, and lean on His presence through every season of life.</p>



<p><em>God has been preparing something for you, but you have to be willing to step into it.&nbsp;</em></p>



<p>God,</p>



<p>I know you&#8217;ve been preparing something for me. I can feel it. I sense it in my spirit, and today, I am asking you to give me the courage to step into what you&#8217;ve prepared for me, even if I don&#8217;t feel fully ready yet.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1080" height="1350" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png" alt="" class="wp-image-1162194" style="aspect-ratio:0.7999970533635855;width:678px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png 1080w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png?resize=384,480 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png?resize=640,800 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png?resize=768,960 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Trust-God-by-Rebecca-Simon.png?resize=1024,1280 1024w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">For more inspiration on ways to connect with God, <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">check out this books by Rebecca Simon</a></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p>Help me stop waiting for perfect timing or perfect confidence. Help me trust that you wouldn&#8217;t open the door if I wasn&#8217;t equipped to walk through it. Give me courage to move when you say move, even when fear whispers that I&#8217;m not qualified. Remind me that you don&#8217;t call the equipped, you equip the called.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized"><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1536" height="1024" src="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1162186" style="aspect-ratio:1.5000138125362579;width:678px;height:auto" sizes="auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" srcset="https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg 1536w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=384,256 384w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=640,427 640w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=768,512 768w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=1024,683 1024w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=1140,760 1140w, https://thoughtcatalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Let-Go-Trust-GodRebecca-Simon.jpg?resize=1152,768 1152w" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">For more inspiration on ways to connect with God, <strong><a href="https://amzn.to/4pjx5WM">check out this books by Rebecca Simon</a></strong></figcaption></figure>



<p>God, I don&#8217;t want to miss what you&#8217;ve been holding for me because I was too afraid to step forward. So quiet every voice that says I can&#8217;t. Break every limiting belief that says I&#8217;m not enough. Remove every obstacle, internal and external, that&#8217;s keeping me from walking into what&#8217;s already mine.</p>



<p>Let this be the season I stop hesitating and start stepping. I&#8217;m ready, God. Lead me into what you&#8217;ve prepared.</p>



<p>Amen.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="1-capricorn">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capricorn</h2>



<p>Capricorns will stay in one job for as long as they can. They love a predictable schedule and an even more predictable paycheque. They’re also the type to climb up the ranks. Their work ethic is unmatched which earns them a lot of respect from their bosses, which eventually leads them to higher positions in the long run.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="2-taurus">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Taurus</h2>



<p>Taurus loves stability as much as Capricorn. So, when they’ve found a career with great benefits and pay, they tend to stay there for the next 20 years. They love to be comfortable, especially when it comes to their livelihood. You won’t find them searching for a job elsewhere unless they had to. And they’re the least likely to resign out of aspirational reasons.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="3-pisces">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pisces</h2>



<p>Stability gives Pisces the sense of order they’ve longed for. Staying in one job feels peaceful to them, and they’re the type to want that for a long time. You know them as the co-worker that sticks around after you left five years ago or that manager you grew up with. Like Capricorn, they climb up the ranks as well. They tend to soak up enough knowledge of a company that promotion becomes somewhat of a given.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="4-libra">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Libra</h2>



<p>Like Pisces, staying in a job gives Libra a sense of mental clarity. For them, it’s about what makes them the least overwhelmed. First days often make them anxious, and hopping between jobs can make them nervous. They love when things are in order, especially when they figure out a good work-life balance. Sure, it might get boring, but at least it pays their bills.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="5-cancer">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cancer</h2>



<p>Cancers look for stability in everything they do. They love the comfort of it, the predictability and how much it gives them peace of mind. That’s why they only work jobs that they’d consider retiring from. Staying afloat has always been their priority, so don’t be surprised if you see them work a job they’ve had since their early 20s.&nbsp;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="is-style-introduction">Is Bailey Taylor justified in being this upset with Ben Waddell? The <a href="https://thoughtcatalog.com/christine-stockton/2026/05/the-4-wildest-moments-from-the-summer-house-season-10-reunion-thus-far/" data-type="link" data-id="https://thoughtcatalog.com/christine-stockton/2026/05/the-4-wildest-moments-from-the-summer-house-season-10-reunion-thus-far/">reunion exchange</a> split viewers, so it&#8217;s worth looking at what he actually did versus what she&#8217;s accusing him of.</p>



<p>The only direct incident between them this season happened in Episode 6, after Amanda&#8217;s birthday dinner.</p>



<p>During the group&#8217;s &#8220;say one nice thing about Amanda&#8221; round, Ben started complimenting her &#8220;big eyes and a smile.&#8221; Bailey cut in with a joke, the second time she&#8217;d made it: &#8220;Ben&#8217;s gonna talk about how he definitely wants to sleep with you.&#8221; She was referencing the group&#8217;s running Italy skinny-dipping story, and she said it in front of Kyle.</p>



<p>After dinner, Ben went to Bailey&#8217;s bedroom and pulled her aside privately. He told her the comment was rude, not funny, and to never say it again. His tone was stern and lecture-style. He kept pressing her on what her deal was and where her head was at.</p>



<p>Bailey apologized in the moment and explained it was just a joke off the group&#8217;s running story. She said the delivery felt like being reprimanded, and it triggered memories of her abusive ex yelling at her. A mic caught her breaking down in the bathroom afterward.</p>



<p>That&#8217;s the only confrontation between them that aired all season. In Episode 7, they had to kiss during a spin-the-bottle game, and Ben apologized for being so harsh the night before. They moved on. No further drama between just the two of them.</p>



<p>So what was the reunion speech actually about?</p>



<p>Bailey wasn&#8217;t relitigating that one room talk. She was calling out a pattern she sees in how Ben talks to women in the house in general. Her central claim: &#8220;You like to reprimand women. That is your problem.&#8221;</p>



<p>On Sabrina, Ben&#8217;s girlfriend: &#8220;Sabrina is exquisite. I think she can do better than you.&#8221; She told Ben he talks to Sabrina &#8220;like s—t&#8221; and that she&#8217;d watched it happen on camera all season.</p>



<p>Then the double standard: &#8220;When you talk to Kyle, you look like you&#8217;re gonna make out with him, no matter how in the wrong he is.&#8221; With women, she said, it&#8217;s always a lecture.</p>



<p>She also pointed to Ben firmly confronting Amanda after Amanda made a joke to Sabrina about everyone thinking Ben was in love with Amanda. Ben told Amanda it was unnecessary, that it had thrown Sabrina off, and that it made things awkward for his relationship.</p>



<p>Ben&#8217;s defense at the reunion was that he and Bailey barely knew each other, and that he treated Amanda &#8220;like one of the guys.&#8221; Bailey wasn&#8217;t buying it. Lindsay said something like, &#8220;I feel like we&#8217;ve unlocked something,&#8221; and the cast looked stunned.</p>



<p>So here&#8217;s the honest read: Bailey did say something pretty out of pocket at the dinner table in front of everyone. Fans are split on whether he was setting a reasonable boundary after an inappropriate joke, or whether the delivery came off condescending. Bailey then took that one incident and built it into a bigger thesis about how he talks to every woman in the house.</p>



<p>Sabrina update: Part 1 of the reunion just aired, and as of right now Sabrina has not posted or commented publicly on Bailey&#8217;s accusations or Ben&#8217;s tone. She and Ben are still together and have been posting normal positive couple content, but nothing addressing the reunion yet.</p>
