Wow! That's all what I can say... Reading this chapter I thought she'll end like her mother, but I don't want to be a prophet of evil. And Tobi should think seriously. If Anna can't hold her tongue soon things will get more worse
I hope Tobi learns a lesson about perception from this. He's already got half of it. He knows that his wife will perceive this "friendship" differently from him and jump to conclusions which is why he's keeping it secret. Now he's realized (I hope) that Anna perceives this "friendship" differently from him, and his sister is straight telling him how it looks to everyone else. Sometimes things aren't so black and white like right and wrong. There are some things that aren't necessarily wrong, but you choose not to do them because they are perceived to be wrong by everyone else. Sure, you could be like Clara and be like "🐸🐸🐸🐸" to everyone who has an opinion if you don't mind living with constant gossip lol. But, you know...everything that isn't wrong isn't automatically right. <--I'm gonna put that on a t-shirt lol well...let's start with Twitter first
@roseinblack69 yeah, no matter what happens, Anna definitely needs to keep her mouth shut it it will probably spell disaster for poor Tobi
@Jes2G you are on a roll today! You make great points about perception. This might sound funny, but in "researching" for this story arc, I looked up some articles about what's "cheating" in a relationship and what isn't (since I was asking myself a lot "IS Tobi cheating?").
The general consensus I found was that everyone's definition of cheating is different, but the most important factor is this -- If you are keeping some kind of interaction with a member of the opposite sex (or same sex, depending) secret from your partner, and the behavior you are engaging in is something your partner would not approve of, you're cheating. Basically it's not about whether YOU think you're cheating, it's whether your PARTNER perceives it as cheating.
So your comment ties into that perfectly -- Tobi may see Anna as just a friend, but since he knows Colette would not approve and is keeping it a secret, he's essentially cheating on her. Just not in the "traditional" sense. Not everyone will agree with that analysis of course, but I think it's an interesting way of looking at it!
Tobi! It plum that Clara blackmailed him like that but maybe it's the dose of truth he needs. Even if it were who are we kidding? This is going to get out of control fast, everybody off the SS Toco
I've already abandoned ship. I've been hurt too many times by Citizen's stories to hold my breath... XD
Wow. Love the picture! I sense that Lucas will grow out his hair and get tats and piercings, making him a world class rocker. And Clara She's a beauty and the purple really suits her!
@pammiechick you never know what might happen! There is a lot of this gen left (this is going to be the longest yet, I can guarantee it right now ). Joce will have the main plotline once the YA years hit. We'll see whether she meets anyone "cool" or not
I just caught up, and it's getting intense! I think Tobi should tell the truth, no matter the consequences. Things will fall into place... not necessarily the way they were before, but in the end, it's gotta happen eventually.
@XSimMimX I'm happy to see you here and know you caught up You're right -- Tobi really has to come clean about this, one way or another... *sigh* I love him to death but he's being majorly dumb right now
About the tobi cheating and perception thing.... Tobi is not telling colette because she'll think it's wrong but the fact that he's not telling her makes it even more wrong I can already hear her saying "If you're not cheating, why didn't you tell me about her?!"
Yes, Luc turned out surprisingly hot And Clara is gorgeous. And Auggy is almost a clone of Tobi
And then our poor heiress is... herself. Pretty, but boring. But she wouldn't be Joce if she wasn't!
Joce? Pretty but boring? Are you sure we're talking about the same one. Colette is pretty. Joce is gorgeous! (Or maybe it's just because she looks so much like Mari, )

Haha @Spottydog714 you're right, Joce is very beautiful! She does resemble Mari quite a bit (and, no matter what anyone thinks of Mari, you can't deny that she's stunning haha) So I take it back -- she's beautiful but boring
I love Joce's boringness though. Honestly, it's refreshing to have an heir for once who isn't having some kind of mental breakdown or existential crisis

Hahaha it's kind of true, though, right? Of course, she's only a teen now, so who knows what you'll put her through... But you know how much Inlove Joce

Oh, it's definitely true! Even Alex had a (minor) crisis with Jade back when they first got together hahaha. Joce is the first drama-free heir (Though, in my defense, this is essentially a SimLit soap opera So... we need dramatic heirs, don't we? hehehe)
Of course... The generation is still very young, so you never know what I have in store for her But yeah, for now she is more the observer while her father and aunt stir up all the drama in the house
