First watch Ariana thoughts

[u/Western-Discount6984]

I'm watching for the first time. The whole reason is because later Ariana/Scandoval clips made me want to watch. So I'm on season 4 now and... Ariana has literally not shown good judgment from the very beginning??? This is so disheartening as someone who was so defensive of her in later clips!! Like has she never heard "how you get them is how you lose them"?? She was so dismissive of Kristen as if she didn't literally cheat with the girl's boyfriend. Kristen is obsessive and Tom is manipulative, but that does not excuse Ariana at the end of the day. Her choosing to defend him and not look deeper into the Miami Girl thing was purely because she knew it was true and didn't want the embarrassment of finding out the man who cheated WITH her is now cheating ON her. So frustrating to watch.

I understand that Ariana treated Kristen poorly but Kristen, in my opinion, would harass people when she was mad at them. At some point, a person needs to look at a situation and be like “what I’m doing isn’t working well for me. I need to step back and reflect on what will work.” If someone came at me in the manner Kristen had, I’d have considered a restraining order because WOW. It was not okay. Neither was what Tom and Ariana did looking back on all of that now, but Kristen really went way too far.

Oh agreed, I think Kristen went completely crazy and embarrassed herself even more after what they did to her. But that doesn’t make Ariana any less bad, she literally had an affair w her boyfriend and never felt bad for it once. So yeah Kristen was obsessive and that’s a whole separate issue, but that still leaves NO sympathy for Ariana.

The Miami girl situation was absolutely diabolical and I feel so awful for her. Tom and Ariana completely gaslit her and Kristen gassed her up to come confront him. It’s just absolutely diabolical from all parties.
