AWelcome to Plathvillestar is sharing wild details about Micah Plath and other Plaths, saying Micah’s relatives were trying to ruin her romance - the one complaining about the controversial clan is Veronica Peters. She vented her spleen in episode 7, and Ethan Plath talked about her feelings. He seemed sympathetic.
Micah was initially elated to be with Veronica,but the blush quickly faded from the rose. He never really made relationships last with prior love interests. However, this romance seemed different. Veronica’s impressive. She’s a Boca Raton, Florida-based realtor - Veronica sells elite properties.
Veronica Peters Has Issues, According to Ethan
She’s educated, sophisticated, and socially adept. Basically, if Veronica can’t make it work with Kim and the other Plaths, no woman can. As Olivia did, Veronica chafed against the family’s controlling and senselessly disapproving ways. This type of rebellion usually means that a break-up’s looming in the distance.
What Did Ethan Say About Veronica’s Feelings?
He Got Real About Her Doubts & Fears
Veronicais still doing well after the season, as seen in her latest Instagram post, which is shown above. She looks great, and she’s showing off high-end properties, hoping to sell them for big-ticket commissions.
However, in the latest teaser clip, she’s obviously unhappy among the Plaths, and episode 7 makes it crystal clear that Micah doesn’t want a partner who clashes with his family.
Micah is a Pisces - a sensitive sign that tends to dislike conflict. His moon is in Libra - a very peaceful position. He’s not a warlike person, mostly, although he did fight with Isaac Plath at Lydia Plath’s wedding, where his nose was seriously injured.
Maybe he wasn’t the aggressor in that altercation, as he was the one who was hurt.
The point is that Micah wants peace, and his partner. Veronica, seems to feel like he’ll choose peace at any price. In other words, she thinks he’ll be passive-aggressive and disloyal in order to keep his partner and his family happy.
Towards the end of the episode, she hinted at something very bad that happened between them, and accusedWelcome to Plathville’s Micah Plathof not having her back.
She gets really heated - then, she starts to get sad.Her eyes fill with tears, and while he tries to deny that he didn’t really defend her over the still-mysterious situation, it seems like his heart’s not really in it.
Truthfully, it looks like he’s emotionally checked out. It seems like he knows his relationship is dying.
In fact, earlier, when Veronica chastises him for leaving dirty hand-prints on a wall, saying it looks like you’re"trying to get out,“he responds:
“Maybe I am.”
Yes, he was joking, but not. He said a lot without saying very much.
Veronica’s turning into his mother - angry, hysterical, demanding, unhappy, nagging - right before his eyes. It’s not what he wants to see. He appears to want a woman who can diplomatically handle these people.
While Micah has his moments, he’s very level-headed and typically is able to navigate the relationships with his parents, often better than his siblings do.
Now, it seems like Veronica’s clashing with his family, and he’s not really stepping up for her. In fact, she seems to be almost dazed by the fact that he won’t. Everyone who’s watched the show knowshow insufferable Kim can bewith her son’s partners.
This is why it IS surprising that he didn’t go to bat for her when she had an issue with them. That seems like a deal-breaker for her. Meanwhile, he’s admitted that he doesn’t want a woman who can’t make it work with the Plaths.
Veronica said they’re fighting because she"doesn’t want to be around the family.“She clearly thinks they’re at fault, but Micah thinks there’s fault on"both sides.“She doesn’t believe that Ethan protects her from them - does this sound familiar?
While Kim’s almost certainly at fault, what’s uncanny is how Ethan and Micah’s partners act like Kim sometimes. These two women are never really satisfied. They always want more from their Plath partners - more housework, more defending, more adventure - whatever it is the woman wants, the man never seems to give enough.
Veronica and Olivia never really relax into moments and just enjoy them, or so it seems, and Kim’s just the same way. They’re always thinking about what they don’t have.
What’s sad is that Kim, with her narcissistic bent, seems to bring out the beast in her son’s partners. Without her interference, they might actually be content.
However, there’s always the chance that the sons subconsciously choose women with traits like Kim’s and then try to work out their issues with her parenting through their romantic relationships.
Unfortunately, so far, they haven’t been able to. The fights probably trigger them, reminding them of all the times they tried to get love from an often cold and self-absorbed mother. So, they gain new psychic injuries when they’re really trying to heal.
Every Plath son must walk this path, it seems. They find a beautiful, intelligent and spirited woman who’s really got it all - Kim, wanting to maintain control, goes into overdrive. She begins to meddle - she pretends to support her sons' partners, but it’s just a facade.
The thing is, the more these young men depend on other women, the less power she has. So, she starts to cause trouble. This happened with Olivia too,as Ethan’s now-exwas often painted as a villain. That was probably extremely unfair.
Life as aWelcome to Plathville"WAG” can be rough. It’s a jungle out there. Kim prowls like a tiger, ready to pounce on women who find out what she’s all about soon enough. The men tiptoe around all these women, trying to create some kind of peace. Eventually, it all devolves into chaos - fights, fear, and blame.
Hopefully,Welcome to Plathville’s Micah starts to see these patterns - maybe if he does, he can’t find a way to break them. That’s what he really needs to do. He must choose different types of women, or stand up for a partner more - one or the other. Until then, romance that turns to ashes is, sadly, almost guaranteed.
