I would get his azz, the teaser.  I hope she sets him straight...to hell with the intensity of chemistry between them.  

He had better get her back to her own bed and hopefully he doesn't run again.  I don't think he is going to be able to keep his hands off of her and he was already jealous and protective.  I am glad his brother can defend himself.

I love this story!

If you are not going to change it, then it is what it is:  Ryan should present him with a burial plan and policy, along with separation papers and say she is moving on bc  their baby needs a real daddy.  If that doesn't make him go for help, well, like Addy said 'F it' and life for others go on. 

What!?  This is it?  I saved your story for last, you know, as in 'saved the best for last'?

I agree with Jay, Tess shouldn't have slapped him--hard.  When they make up, he can spank her. 

Wonder what Trifling Toni has up her sleeve next?  TT is not going down w/o a fight, esp. since Jay admitted there is trouble in paradise.

I think our girl Tess is testing Jay by holding out; hope it don't come back to bite her.

On the bright side, Jay passed the test with a B+; stop telling TT anything about their private life.

I am so glad I didn't read this at work :-).  I am so into your story that i read the reviews to warn me before I read the updates.

Tess--I am proud of you, so proud, because I could not have dealt with you for as long as Jay did.  If you and Jay get back together and have kids, I hope they have your common sense, bc husband dearest is intelligent, but oh so dumb.

Jay--Hopefully you haven't slept with immature Placeholder, yet, but she is pretty territorial toward you, so...  When you confess that you are still married and has been cheating on your wife, again, you are going to be shocked at the hatred toward Tess your new 'girlfriend' is going to spew.  Maybe you will come to your senses when you realize you have been dipping your penis and your tongue in that sewage.  Hope Placeholder's  dad has paid you in full for your work.  Did I say I was proud of Tess already?  I am proud of Tess.

Jas and Tucker-- came through.  Hope Jas didn't kill Toni, though.

Eric--fingers crossed that his new woman is really a man or had five kids hidden. Eric is selfish and will always be selfish. 

I think Jay did learn something from therapy, but Tucker still had to break it down to him.  Jay is still indecisive, but I hope he don't stutter when he deals with Jamie.  This man is having sex with someone already and claiming her around town as his girlfriend...that's pretty trashy. 

I think I would have respected Jay more if he had had some random hookups to take the edge off.  But the majority of men don't fare well when left alone for long periods: little head takes over.  I don't even wanna guess what your next update will be about, but you have been doing a fantastic job!

WOW!  Loved that last butt kick Tess gave her.  The couple needs to talk and then decide if they need counseling.  Tess may want to take some anger management classes, but Toni brought this whupping.

Jay shouldn't feel bad about the erection--it was natural and Tess should have been on the job.  Toni will be back--why look at Jay?  I think in her own mind, she thinks Jay wants her and I have to kinda question that, too. 

He should have been the man in this situation and let Toni go, no matter what Tess said.  Right now, Jay needs to slap that man card down, before Tess hit him again.

Thank you for keeping the story going and thanks for giving this couple a break.  If they stay strong, communicate, and have one another's back it will be near impossible to break them up.  Can't wait to see what you have in store for us.  

You know your story is good when you have us all in here writing emotional reviews. 

Did Eric set Jay up with Toni, because she did say she had a hotel room already that was out of the way, but then Jay just happen to run into Eric and Malik? 

Eric and Toni are just alike, remember the pic he took of them in the elevator?  Why was he there anyway? 

Eric just seems like, if I can't have my 'pet Tess', then no one can and he sure don't give a damn about her happiness.  Right now Trouble Tess and Jumpy Jay are playing into the Evil Eric and Trifling Toni's hands.

my, my, my, well, Jay could take a page from Tess's book and keep quiet, but he will come clean and let the chips fall... Tess was keeping a lot of important info from her husband.  She is feeling unworthy and that is why she is avoiding him. 

I can really understand Jay actions with skank Toni, but too bad he didn't slam Eric with the abortion update that possibly left Tess infertile.  She needs to go to a fertility doc and see what's up--she was wrong not to tell Jay, but I bet she thought he would leave her. 

What I don't understand is that Eric had her abort the baby, but she still ran back to him.  Hell, maybe Tess should be with Eric, but if she can't give him a Jr. down the road...

I am still on the couple's team, but I am leaning toward legal separation with divorce around the corner if Jay don't come clean with a quickness.  Tess needs to take Jay actions as a wake up call to get her sh*t together.

Good--things can only go up for Tess now, bc it seems as though she only cares about her job, and maybe Eric.  Jay needs to stop begging, crying, and apologizing.   

This chick is too much drama and I am not feeling her love for Jay at this point. She even wakes up pissed off.

Eric didn't tell anyone she was in the hospital for a week, even though she flatlined? Apparently, he called Malik, after several days had past--why not her mom or Jas or even Jay? 

I am tired of Jay letting everyone dog him...come on man and put your big boy's pants on and call a lawyer.

OK--I had to go for a walk and think about this story:  I have seen other couples go through worst than these two characters, and come back stronger and still together.

Jay's future with Tess will depend on what happens at her condo.  Jay please don't cry or beg--just be hones, for once and take a chance and bare your heart.

Sad that this couple was so happy, but never actually strong.  Until they come clean, and I mean both of them need to really talk and LISTEN, they are spinning their wheels and wasting everybody's time.  

Jay is strong (he would kill for Tess), but not so smartTess has a hard outer shell, but soft on the inside and very vulnerable; she made the right move in obtaining the separation, going through intense therapy, and serving papers on Jay.  

I would like to think that Jay does the right thing, bc he knew when Jamie didn't scald his azz after he confessed, she would never be the 'one' for him.  I understand him pretending it was Tess he was making love to, but Jaime had to recognize she was basically a stand in and a booty call--great sex and then I got a lot of sites to visit. 

Guess Eric is the hero right now, but he don't really want Tess--he just didn't want to lose.  I don't think Eric thought that Tess was try to kill herself.  Why didn't she call Jas or even Malik?

Can't get over Jas doing what she did.  She shouldn't have waited a week to contact Tess and then to blab their business to Tess's mom--she sure didn't tell all the stuff Tess had did. 

Jay should have moved out to give Tess space, but been inher face everyday begging forgiveness.  Now when Tess finds out her 'friend' Eric helped caused the downfall of her marriage will she knee him in the balls?  As for Toni, well Toni was Toni.  Tess needs to heal away from everybody, and I mean everybody and Jay needs to get a catch a break and find out what is really going on.

enjoying your story, but don't think i could easily shake off two slaps and panties being torned off--this girl was almost raped!
