......Poor Karen!

As I mentioned previously, I so understand where she's coming from. To see her ex-husband flourishing with his new life, new spouse, more kids... it definitely hurts.

I can't wait to hear more!

I will freely admit, I hate Karen exactly as much as I did at the beginning. #TruthHurtsFillipelli

Author's Response: I love this so much.

Really feel bad for Pam here. She's dealing with everything and just wants Jim. And he's gone. Gone before she wakes up and not there when she goes to bed. Really feels like she's about to snap. I can't help but wonder if the right target for her anger is Jim rather than Karen.

Speaking of Karen. Yes, it's nice to get some more backstory for her. However she's also the one putting herself in the position of watching Jim and Pam be parents. I doubt there's anyone who forced her to spend that week with them so it's on her. From that perspective Karen is being malicious to Pam. If she wants to get unstuck then she needs to get over herself and stop living in the past and the ruins of her former marriage. Granted that's quite hard what with Julia in the picture and all, but still.

Really hope Jim opens his eyes about all this soon, cause it feels like the whole house of cards that is their life right now is about to come crashing down.

Jim needs to get his head out of his ass and open his eyes before he has two ex-wives. I still have
little sympathy for Karen. She knew that she
was with Jim only because of Julia. Plus it was Karen that left Jim and started divorce proceedings!
It was go to see Pam finally telling Karen to let it go when it comes to getting married to Jim. Karen will never find happiness if she continues to be cold and distant because no one likes a narcissist.
As for Karen wanting to be a singer, perhaps she can still be a singer by going around
to local places in Scranton (and PA). Even if she’s never famous at least she’ll be doing something
that she’s passionate about.

Wow!!!

I may hate Karen a bit less after this chapter, though I really feel it is unfair of her to be so terrible to Pam who has clearly put in effort with her over the years. It hasn't seemed like her marriage was all that happy before Jim & Pam ran into each other. Her treatment of Pam may not come from malice, but Pam would never know that & I'm sure it's obvious Pam is exhausted & unhappy. So I may feel a bit sympathetic towards Karen, but man am I starting to hate Jim. I'm close to wanting Pam to say "enough is enough" and take the kids and go. Jim seems nothing like the person who was so in love with Pam when they reunited and the storm clouds are gathering. Something is not right. I feel heartbroken for Pam. The kids too. What if Pam had called him die to an emergency? Though at this point it is, isn't it? This entire chapter made me sad.
