BBM: I don't think SP's mother would have liked any woman who married her "precious" offspring Scott.
No woman was good enough for little Scotty and Laci was a perfect DIL, imho. I think most moms would have been delighted to have had Laci as a DIL, she was a class act and would have been an amazing mom if SP hadn't murdered her and Connor.
As for the other women you have quoted, the one thing they have in common is being unlucky enough to fall for the wrong guy.
As an attorney what do you think, Gitana1?
I don't think my profession tells me much. But I do notice a commonality with the women for whom I could find descriptions - generally very outgoing and sociable.
Their husbands don't seem to be the same.
I keep going back to that post by someone on here (Was it @Davia18?) about a SM video that showed SW getting footage of her Thrive colleagues dancing. She's carrying on with them. Excited. They're all dancing for her.
In the background is CW. Standing in profile. Sort of maybe pretending to be socializing with a couple of dudes in front of him. But lurking. And in side profile, turning, and just watching her as she was exuberant and getting all the attention as was probably usual.
The poster said his demeanor and his look reminded her of her husband. Who was a secret abuser and would go after her for whatever behavior he decided to find fault with, once they got home.
That post never left me. I have seen the video two or three times but his face, his body language never left me. He was watching her. Observing. Judging. IMO.
I don't know that he was secretly abusive. I haven't heard any evidence of that. But I do think he was secretly resentful. Filled with simmering envy. Anger. Eventually rage.
