My Unorthodox Life

I admire Julias story but the conflicts are obviously planted and the conversations feel so scripted. I guess that's how tv is even if it's "real life".

The whole show I just bad for Robert because people were constantly violating his boundaries. First Julia not respecting him when he said he didn't want to date at this time. He stood his ground but Julia wouldn't drop it. And then his family gaslighting him for trying to find out more about his birth person. I hope that has changed foe him since.

This reality show has very little "real". Everything looks planned and staged (the cameraman in the bedroom filming one of Julia's daughters in bed having sex - or make it look like it - with her boyfriend: really?! Not to mention the dialogue). Lots of money but little good taste in both style and behaviour. Julia wants to rule everyone's life; she has a God complex. Silvio, Robert and Ben are the only characters that inspire sympathy.

I am writing things only to help out with the bad ratings, that apparently come from people that are very religious or can't deal with this type of women.

I find the main message of this reality amazing: You can re-do your life and have a fresh start at any stage, at any time, no matter what. If that is not inspirational, I don't know what is. Get a grip, people!

Most of this is so over the top but I love Bat' she's is a great young lady. Her communication with Ben is how a successful relationship can be maintained rather then destroyed when one is changing. I hope she has success in her life.

For those who condemn her for attacking an entire group, watch the documentary One of Us, also on Netflix. You'll have a better understanding of what she left and why she doesn't want her son to be sucked into that way of life. I think she's going about convincing him in the wrong way, but maybe, hopefully, by the end of the series I'll be proven wrong. I agree with her that fundamentalism in any religion is a huge problem. We see it with American right wing Christians, Myanmar Buddhists, Middle Eastern Muslim Al-Qaeda, etc.; they're all putrid peas in the same rotten pod. I fast forwarded through all the fashion world junk. Other than a few brief scenes it was irrelevant.
