Issa Rae’s Emmy Winning Series: Insecure Official Thread

If they make Lawrence take back Issa then I'm done with this show completely

Get cheated on by this bum Issa and then take her back with open arms

Issa was throwing Hov type shots at Molly in the supermarket I'm surprised Molly didn't check her

Lawrence Getting back with Issa would be his biggest L ever. No coming back from that

Condola is doing the same thing Lawrence did to Tasha in season 2

Don't Issa and Molly go through this shyt every season

Don't Issa and Molly go through this shyt every season

They're really horrible friends

Issa is selfish as all hell and Molly is a co-dependent nutcase

@LauderdaleBoss - Yup. Definitely agree to disagree

Issa and Lawrence’s personality just really mesh.

Issa and Lawrence’s personality just really mesh.

They're very compatible but... it takes a better man than me to forgive a woman for cheating. There are some doors that once you walk through you can't walk back the other way in my book.

They really are. They take pleasure in each others drama. On paper Molly would be damn near perfect status... educated, got her own money, and independent. But once you start peeling back those layers... you see why she can't be happy or keep a man

The bytch is a trifling hoodrat. Money and education doesn't change your core values

Lawrence about to have his ex main chick be the side chick

 

[HARLEM AL]

Nah my nikka, when will yall ladies realize that nobody is forcing you to wait for a man's potential to peak. You either can rock with the timeline, speed it up, or bounce. Its that simple. But a lot of women create a fourth option which is to be complacent their damn self and lose sight of their own goals. They then wake up 5 years later like Issa biter as fukk about it. Lowkey she gotta take a lil accountability and come to terms with that L. Just like Lawrence would have to come to terms with staying with a chick that cheated because he fell off and became a bum. That shyt works both ways.

Ya'll forget that, Issa leveled up her damn self, after the break up.

Truth of the matter is Lawrence was always above Issa weightclass and she knows it. Especially since he was able to bag the person she looks up to most after he left her. Meanwhile she smashing sloppy ass TSA nikkas for loud packs.

Issa acting like she cultivated Lawrence potential, when all she did was enable his stagnation to the point she got stagnant herself. A chick that is truly on the ball and has a progressive life will not allow a nikka with Lawrence potential to waste 5 years of her life.

Yup. She was definitely not in his class.

And yes you’re correct big homie. Every chick that wasn’t Issa saw potential in him. Look how shorty at the bank looked at him. She saw everything she needed to see. She was ready to get on the ball with whatever he wanted to. She is the one who put that nikka back where he need to be. She encouraged the shyt out of him.

 

[RickyGQ]

That conversation Issa n her brother had about Lawrence potential and etc... will be the thot topic of the week.

How you know a nikka got potential, but you still fukk it up cuz it wasn't happening fast enough.

Or better yet, Issa talking like she’s some catch. Her life is a fukking mess...

 

[HARLEM AL]

Well, the show would disagree with you

Dude had the higher earning potential even when he was just chilling on the sofa, all of their mutual female friends make him look like the catch and is more physically attractive than her.
Even when they both leveled up, he seemed to do it faster while it took Issa like 2 seasons to get her mind right. On top of being on the verge of losing one of her best friends. Meanwhile Lawrence still cool with all his nikkas.

Issa sounding bitter to her brother pretty much confirms it. That convo doesn't even come up if she truly felt Lawrence was beneath her. Hard to read someone's potential when you can't even realize your own.
But yeah we all see shyt differently so we'll definitely disagree there.

The glossed over shyt is dude was getting unemployment and saving the shyt. When he left her shyt crumbled

 

[RickyGQ]

How so? This is the same man who couldn’t even get Issa a cheap card for her birthday. That comment is only expanding on what we already knew.

He forgot her birthday. The devastatingly broke shyt always felt like something the audience put on him but the writers weren’t really conveying in that first season. So now he was broke and unemployed for the whole 5 years they were together? That doesn’t even make sense.

Yea I don’t believe that. He was just going through a rough patch and Issa was holding it down for a bit.

 

[RubioTheCruel]

From what I understand(it's all vague since we didn't see anything before s1) - Lawrence was trying to get his app off the ground and he had not worked for anyone for a while and lived off his savings and later, his unemployment. He wasn't broke the whole time they were together but they established he had been down on his luck for a while in s1.

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Yup. She was definitely not in his class.

Exactly
You gotta really resonate with Issa to think she's some type of catch for Lawrence. Hell, Issa is even looked at as the weakest link in her own crew.

and yes bank shorty did a better job of cultivating Lawrence's potential than Issa did with 5 years of having that nikka.

For some reason, some females think they just gotta be around you and breathe oxygen during your shytty moments to justify saying they had your back once you get your shyt together. It don't work that way. You gotta be encouraging and lead by example by being progressive yourself. If your gonna fall off too or be a bitter condescending dikk about it, then you not really being supportive.
