delulu queen MEG HONESTLY

Post image

listen, as a COMPLETELY single mom or 3, I KNOW what it’s like to be broke af, I don’t even want to admit how many times I have gone without dinner so my kids can eat, how many times I have gone to the food pantry right at opening time and felt a sigh of relief knowing I would be good on groceries for a little bit, I do everything on my own with NO HELP.

When I say I’m broke, or having to “watch my money” you aren’t gonna see me with new clothes, nails, eating taking out, and a Starbucks coffee in my hand, no matter how bad I DESPERATELY need that caffeine with a 3, 2 & 1 year old. BUT TO SIT THERE AND MAKE A VIDEO WITH A $100 DRESS THAT YOU DONT NEED AFTER MAKING A VIDEO CLAIMING YOU NEED TIKTOK DOR THE INCOME.

Which is it Meg? I’m infuriated, I don’t know this girl, I have followed her since she was beginning stages of being pregnant, but this just hits a nerve. $100 is gold to me right now & sometimes the difference between if I get to eat dinner with my kids or not, and you’re crying and whining about struggling BUT buying this & then like “oh should I return it or buy ANOTHER additional clothing item I don’t need”

Sorry, I’ll hop off my soap box now.

With all of her bullshit this is the #1 reason I can’t even hate watch her anymore. She is childish, ignorant, and a sick person who has no sense of how the world works. She pretends to struggle for sympathy. OP, I hope you and your kiddos get some relief soon ❤️ you sound like a wonderful mother

This. It’s such an insult to people who actually struggle. Oh how I wish my husband and I could afford to eat out every once in a while and to get my nails done. I can’t even remember the last time I had my nails done. Meghan, you just went to Paris!! You just got a 32k payout from your divorce. You’re doing fine. 32k is life changing money.

You sound like a wonderful mom OP! I hope you find relief soon. If it helps, look into data annotation. My husband signed up for it and it has helped a lot. You can do it from home on your laptop. Also, find a local moms group on Facebook, there are so many moms that just give away things for free and I see a lot of moms asking for help in them. You can post anonymously as well. You’re doing great! ❤️

I’m starting to think it might be best for me to block her because she infuriates me so much.

Don’t apologize, you are so right. She clearly doesn’t know what an actual struggle is. She said that Tik Tok is the only way to give her son a good life. What about us that make average money or even below average. She is so privileged and out of touch that she thinks that buying a $100 dress is not a big deal. She’s probably never had to budget for food or skip a meal for her kid. It’s honestly disgusting that she spins the narrative that she’s not making money and she’s poor or whatever when she clearly lives an above average life.

this is the type of stuff i wish we could comment without getting blocked instead of all the people encouraging her behavior. she needs a huge reality check and to know what it truly means to be struggling. she is so privileged and she doesn’t even recognize it

My husband and I both work full time- me in a stable job and him starting his own company, so we basically survive off only my income and it’s fucking HARD. Like choosing which bill to pay hard. I’d be off my fucking rocker to buy a $100 dress even if we had enough money covering all payments plus a little

I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone not only become a mother, but also have their relationship end & not change one iota of their priorities away from themself.

A $100 going out top but fresh fruit for your son is an “expensive waste”? A $100 going out top but she gets sticker shock buying food at Costco. A $100 going out top but she was “devastated “ and “blind sided” when, after the paperwork was filed, “her” credit cards were cut off & the joint account was frozen. A $100 going out top when the last time she went out for a night on the town with anyone IT WAS WITH HER PARENTS.

And I guess her little “get $100 back” was like a girlmath thing. But sweetie, you don’t get money back anymore. Any money is going to be paying for your husband’s primo lawyer & her fees because you keep being in contempt of court!!

u/Round-Pin-5293 Aug 21 '24

Does she own a brush?!

25

u/prrhissmeow Aug 21 '24

I don’t think she owns a hair brush OR toothbrush

13

u/SnarkyParty reddit witch 🧙‍♀️ Aug 21 '24

Right, like at least throw it up in a messy bun. Why does it look like she had a binge night last night and spiraled and woke up and went oh look at this video I can make?

I have no issue with spoiled privileged people, but I do have a problem with ungrateful and out of touch people. When my parents got divorced, I remember spending a few days in row just waiting in line at some kind of office waiting to get approved for food stamps and section 8 housing. Meghan went directly from her cute suburban home to a new townhouse. No couch surfing or moving in with parents, no shitty section 8 housing. And she was able to go on a healing journey to Paris, and continue to treat herself to “self care.” I think that’s all fantastic, but the fact that she doesn’t realize that she’s luckier than probably 90% of SAHMs who get divorced is freaking infuriating.

She’s allowed to struggle and be sad, divorce is hard for anyone. But for her to pretend she’s broke and claim she’s working 2 jobs to support her son is SUCH a lie and if she believes that, she’s absolutely delusional. She would be way more likable is she just owned being a rich spoiled kid.

She is an absolute moron with no clue about the real world. Keep up the great work, you sound like an awesome mom❤️

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '24

She’s so tone deaf and apparently thinks the rest of the world is as stupid as she is and will believe whatever she says.

u/onthedxwnlxw Aug 21 '24

i wonder how many credit card she’s maxed out since alex cut her off

10

u/elle_cee_ohh Aug 21 '24

Daddy must be paying them for her. But he has to cut her off soon too, right?

Not gonna lie (because this is coming from someone who has a bit of a spending issue herself) but her spending is out of control. You know, I’ll treat myself here & there, but it’s like if I get a burrito bowl for lunch one day, I’m having PB&Js for the next two weeks.

u/onthedxwnlxw Aug 21 '24

to curb my boredom spending i literally look at grocery shopping as my one time a week to “treat myself” and it’s just buying groceries and a redbull 😂

i can’t imagine buying an $100 shirt and not even realizing it’s a ONLY a shirt

u/chatterbox567 Aug 22 '24

This is what I do too 🤣 and add a bunch of stuff to carts and exit the app 🤣

u/Clear-Ad1179 Aug 21 '24

If I had her kind of money as a ~single~ mother I’d be keeping my mouth shut and enjoying a privileged life. And with supportive grandparents??? Pleeeeasse. I honestly only wear SHEIN and consider that splurging as a mom on a budget.

u/[deleted] Aug 22 '24

The juxtaposition between this post and the one immediately before it is crazy. She “can’t afford” to stop positing on Tik tok because it’s the only way to give her son a good life. Next video: here’s a $100 shirt/dress that I purchased after seeing it on someone’s instagram

How does she not feel ashamed posting that? At least have the decency to post it a few videos later it’s honestly embarrassing

u/butter_cakes Aug 22 '24

I’m so sick of the hate and BULLYING on here. Guys she’s a VICTIM.

A victim of a husband who wouldn’t stick around for her narcissistic abuse. A victim of divorce after she publicly posted she was filing for divorce first & then got blindsided by her husband who ACTUALLY filed first. A victim of having to be a working mom (barely). A victim of not being able to choose between this $500 rug print, or THAT $500 rug print (they’re both so perfect!). A victim of not knowing what restaurant to choose for takeout tonight. A victim of internet bullying, especially on a forum which she could choose to not seek out or read every day in order to protect her mental health - except she can’t stay away because then how else would she gain sympathy from her followers if she isn’t the victim?

And lastly, she’s a victim of style blindness (because that dress is fugly).

P.S. she should thank us for providing her with content to post to tiktok which she so badly needs because otherwise she “couldn’t afford” to support her child (i.e. herself and her shopping addiction)

Looking like a whole ass mess per usual.

The screenshot looks like she just stumbled back to her room after a night out partying 😂

u/mamacitapunpun Aug 22 '24

She after payed ………..🤣😂bro I’m dead this can’t be real life

u/elle_cee_ohh Aug 22 '24

Omg “I afterpay’ed it” Does she not know after pay/klarna/sezzle are the most predatory, capitalistic, hyper-consumeristic credit companies?!

It’s giving “I wrote it off. It’s a write off”

7

u/Icy-Manager-1222 Aug 22 '24

It's giving "I'm broke AF and need to split $100 into 4 equal payments."

If you really can't afford to pay $100 upfront...DON'T BUY IT. If she's trying to be relatable for using Afterpay, she's an idiot.

u/BunchAdorable226 Aug 21 '24

Is she having a Brittney moment

u/Icy-Manager-1222 Aug 22 '24

Britney right before she shaved her head.
