I think he does exactly what he did: continues to reassure her that she’s beautiful until she can finally see it for herself.

He can voice it for her for the time being, and just never let her forget it.

A woman feeling beautiful can also be tied into how sexually desirous her significant other finds her. Jasmine’s been saying for some time now how Gino doesn’t seem interested in her, so I guess I do believe that it is hard for her & makes her feel less attractive when he isn’t intimate with her.

If she’s already self conscious & then he doesn’t want to get physical, that’d be hard.

Exactly

That’s what I’ve started thinking as well.

I was very impressed. She recognized Mary didn’t have anyone and needed a mother figure, and she stepped up.

She actually took Mary’s side-which was fair considering the circumstance.

She listened & gave some good advice.

Addicts make a lot of poor choices & bad mistakes when they’re using, but most times they’re amazing people. A lot of times that’s why they’re an addict-they’re sensitive caring people who just self medicate to hide their pain.

Of course time will tell, but I’d thought the same thing while watching this episode. It was nice to see.
