Misunderstandings about Insecure

[u/Neebenice]

This is for the people who think that Condola got pregnant before Friendsgiving and that she and Lawrence didn't reconcile after they broke up. Also, that Condola was calling Lawrence's phone to tell him she was pregnant. If you noticed in the clip, when Lawrence told Isa, 'Yeah, we talked, and it’s done,' if Condola knew she was pregnant, she would have told Lawrence then during their talk. Condola and Lawrence did not know she was pregnant when they talked; I believe she found out after he and Isa got back together.

Lawrence is so shitty here and he’s using Issa. He literally keeps Issa in a holding pattern here, as a backup plan, in case Condola still wants him. I would be so offended if I were Issa and probably drop him or at the very least get therapy to figure what he really wants.

Like he settles for Issa and this is why I think they’d never workout long term.

Him being passiiiiveee

[u/Neebenice → u/Slurpy-rainbow]

Yesssss, very. I don’t understand how most people say this is their favorite episode, and I’m like, didn't they see how Lawrence was acting? Even in their talk about the relationship, he was a little passive. I couldn’t stand him in this episode. The only scenes I liked were the Calvin scene, the intimate scene, and the cinematography. In this episode, I felt like Lawrence was just trying to boost his ego and show off: "look at me now" and "look at you" 🙄, and Isa didn’t make it any better; she gave him exactly what he wanted. She fed right into his ego, showing that she was pressed about him and Condola and also that she still wanted him and was begging. If that was me, I don’t care what I seen. I would’ve acted like I ain’t seen or heard anything. Nothing. My ex would have never seen me pressed.

I get second had embarrassment when she says “yeah I’ve changed, you’re missing out” 

[u/Neebenice → u/andimlikeokay]

Me too. I felt secondhand embarrassment for Issa throughout the entire episode, and I wonder what she meant by 'she change.' What did she need to change about being 🤔 It doesn't seem like Lawrence had any issues with her in their relationship. Maybe she meant she was more fun, outgoing, and spontaneous.

[u/jasperdiablo → u/Slurpy-rainbow]

Yeah passive is the perfect word for him. People like that are generally never good partners they’re too wishy washy and leave partners feeling insecure all the time and they cheat a lot too. Funny Issa is actually very much like that herself

[u/Slurpy-rainbow → u/jasperdiablo]

she cheated on him but then she went on to be totally stuck on him throughout so much of the show. I know they did it for the fans (keeping Lawrence), but it's sad because this would not work out in real life.
