You may be right, Lisa--but last night revealed to me that maybe Jackie puts up with Mimi's tirades because Jackie plays games--innocent flirting with her straight client--yeah, right. She's way too quick to provocatively and inappropriately jump at people and perhaps Mimi has been on the receiving end of this too many times, for too many years--I think she said they have been together for four years. Now that I've seen this side of her I can somewhat understand Mimi's reaction, although she is way over the top. It reminds me of that relationship portrayed by Sharon Stone and the young woman in "Basic Instincts." They get off hurting each other. I just think they've got this sadist/masochistic thing going on that makes for drama and right now it is making Mimi look like the heavy when Jackie is the one who keeps adding fuel to the fire. As much as I hate to, I have to give Mimi the benefit of the doubt. I don't approve of her behavior, it's inexcusable and no one should have to put up with that crap, but something's there. Jackie's not as innocent as she has been portrayed. Even though she seems to be rethinking their relationship, if she keeps behaving the way she does in relationships, all she will do is just attract another Mimi. She needs to wake up, get a clue, and stop presenting herself as the, "I don't know why Mimi..." victim. She knows why. She just doesn't want to admit she has a hand in it.
