Is this how middle-aged people flirt?

I am on season 3 and I just feel like in all the relationships the flirting is so cringe and unnatural. Is this how married people flirt? Even the non-married people like Erik and the lady he met at the bar, it’s just so cringe haha.

The teenagers too but, I feel like that is more expected as they are young and no experience and lack social skills.

Dana Sue

I know this has been discussed to no end, but I had to throw my two cents in or I'd explode...

She should just be single. This is how I hear every conversation between her and Ronnie...

Dana Sue, who owns a restaurant, co-owns a spa, has a Foundation, Vo-Tech: "Why cant i just have what I want in life?"

Ronnie: "You're doing great! I love you! I think I'd like to...."

Dana Sue: "Why do my dreams have to be put on hold for your idea that will surely fail???"

Ronnie: breathes

Dana Sue: "WHY CANT YOU SUPPORT ME AND MY DREAMS!?!?!?"

Helen NEEDS more scenes

So I started watching sweet magnolias a couple weeks ago while doing my hair and I binged the whole first two seasons. I'm currently on season 3 but I had thoughts during season 1 and season 2. Let me just get out the way that Helen is honestly the best character of the three main characters and I find her the most interesting character. She's not annoying, her narratives are great, and Heather Headly can ACT! However, I've been noticing that she doesn't get as many scenes as Maddie or Dana Sue. It'll go from Helen to Maddie to Dana to Maddie to Maddie then Helen towards the end of the episode and then we got to wait till the next episode. I don't like that considering I find Maddie annoying and Dana is interesting but Helen is way more interesting. I feel like they give her the short end of the stick like...GIVE ME MORE HELEN! I'm tired of Calvin and Maddie being on my screen!

Helen

Hey everyone,

so i’m on S3:E6 and I can’t figure out why Helen is so upset with the girls for….. Like were they really wrong or is this just how she feels deep down inside about Ryan… because i really don’t think they meant any harm….

Be nice 😊

There should be a drinking game

There should be a drinking name every time someone says "With love AND faith AND trust AND blessing" you take a shot. Seriously how many times can one use an AND in one sentence?? Was I the only one getting triggered by it?

Also it feels like there's no individual charecter, even little Katy has same exact monologues as her seventy-something old grandmother.
