Tina has told Bette she is attracted to men. Bette has told Tina to explore here feelings. Bette is already beaten down by Tina’s nagging relative to money, insecurity in adopting Angelica, telling Bette that she didn’t get a vote relative to taking the job with Helena, lack of intimacy coming from Tina. Bette knows about Daddyof2 and Josh Becker. Tina has been flirting her butt off with Josh at work, even evading questions about a partner and Bette in particular.
Bette has come to a decision. She and Tina are over. Tina does not want a life with Bette and is no longer in love with Bette; time to move one. It will break her heart to lose Angelica, but as Tina is her birth mother, Bette feels she doesn’t have a say in Angelica’s life. She has lost her own mother and vowed not to do that to her own child, but in this case Angelica is hers at Tina’s and the state’s discretion, neither is budging at this time. Bette doesn’t need it spelled out further. Tina wants Angelica to have a mother and a father. Bette isn’t father and realistically most men aren’t going to play second fiddle to a second mother. As much as it pains her, Bette knows that Tina’s plan for a “normal family” is her dream for Angelica. Bette will give Tina what she needs to do what is best for Angelica. If Tina needs or wants a man and a normal family life to be happy, Bette would not stand in the way.
Bette is thinking through the logistics of their split. She has been the primary caregiver for Angelica. Thankfully they have found Angus and she will arrange for him to keep a regular schedule immediately. Once this decision is out on the table, there will be no time to let things fester. Bette had been holding off on an offer from the Whitney. She just accepted and will move to NYC to get settled and started there a soon as possible. This will be hard on Kit, ironic as earlier in their lives, Kit was always the one leaving Bette. Thankfully she and Kit will get some time together before she takes off as once she announces this to Tina she’ll leave that immediately and let the separation begin.

LOts of hatred and anger on Tina’s part. How did it get so, so bad?
I think Tina is shocked, feels betrayed, Bette has processed over time, Tina is blindsided. She comes home from work and finds her life is being dismantled. She still loves Bette, just not sure Bette is the right choice anymore and now Bette has made that decision for her. I’m not sure where this “inspiration” came from nor if its going forward, but we’ll see. The desire for men at that time in the relationship had to be devastating for Bette. IC gave us one path, here is another, not sure how thorny it will be.
Hmm, looks like in this case, Bette’s not the only one who can be considered self-involved and have their head up their ass.?! While Bette’s iteration of the realizations she’s come to and the actions she’s taken may have come off abrupt to Tina (and me), I feel she’s doing what needs to be done in this situation. Up until recently, I had only seen some snippets of s3 on youtube, but thanks to LOGO I’ve seen the edited version of a few eps and I can safely say all the stuff with B&T broke my heart…this tale is doing a good job with that too, however I’m not going anywhere and very curious to see where you take our girls?? Thx & PPVS!!
What a nightmare. There they go again, doing things without talking to each other first. Great chapter. Please continue.
WOW! Lots of drama indeed. I hope to read more soon. Thx
Wow….that was powerful! You did a great job expressing both Bette and Tina’s feelings equally. I don’t think it is a matter of taking sides or who was more wrong than the other. I just think it’s important to understand where they are both emotionally coming from in order to understand where your story will take us. Wonderfully written and I look forward to more.
My goodness, such venom from Tina. What the hell did she think Bette would do, let her continue having feelings for men, date Josh Becker or any other man of her choosing and continue to have cybersex with Daddyoftwo. My only wish was that they had agreed to separate but not make the break permanent until Tina decided that Bette was no longer the person for her, they need the wiggle room to take those decisions back and resume their relationship. Also I understand how Bette felt when Tina told her all that, she was particularly devasted because it is her “T” doing all this which she never expected. And as much as it hurts, I do want to see where you take this. It will be very interesting. We’ve missed your writing and thanks for posting this new story.
What a mess hey. I can’t blame Bette really even if she stated this by cheating in the first place. it’s hurt to see them like that. I am still hopping to a better ending. PPVs
Oh Wow! No words – just that! can’t wait to see what happens. Thank you!
WELCOME BACK!!!! It’s strange isn’t it how we can go along and not feel a story in our head, and then all of a sudden, pow! it’s there and you feel you have to write it?!! Glad you are back, and I look forward to reading the rest of your story. Thanks!!
I can’t believe Tina is feeling betrayed. After all of her behavior did she really think that Bette wasn’t going to reach a breaking point? We know that they may well find their way back to each other, but Bette seems to have made a logical choice at the moment.
I kept you as a favorite and will not be changing that. Please continue and tell it like it should have been told in the damn first place. Welcome back!
season 3 broke my heart. tina made me so mad…i was hoping bette would do something like that (even though i was a tibetter) tina wanted her cake and eat it too. bette is doing what she needs to do to survive. i am sure she thought long and hard about it and it is killing her to leave either of them. can’t wait to read more.
oh well. One partner always leaves ’emotionally’ a long time before they physically up and leave. Usually the more intellectually secure person reachs the decision to leave and prepares their exit plan just like Bette has done because an intelligent person can only take so much ‘abuse’ and that’s what T has been dishing for 2 years by the sounds of this. Bette has done the right thing for her and maybe in this case for Angelica because it appears that T has a lot of hate spewing out there…some of it self-hate possibly feeling rejected and ugly since B cheated on her. Very sad situation cuz I love them both but very real the way u’ve portrayed it. I will be following this. Thx for writing.
This is sad and drama!
Ugh im already hating this soooo kuch in other words that I mean I love this as well, damn b I hate when Tina and Bette break uo or fight
