The WRONG Person Got All The Blame 😠

I HATE My Answer… But It’s the Truth!!!

It’s the holiday time and I am gearing up to watch “The Best Man Holiday”.. and it really got me thinking… the series never really cast the blame on the right person🤔

—————————-—————————-————————

⭐️ MY POV: Yes, Harper should have told his best friend, Lance, about the book before before writing it. But maybe it was a blessing in disguise for Lance!

Looking at the glass half full, it’s a great opportunity that he knew about this before saying “I do.”

—————————-—————————-————————

👀 REASONS FOR ALL OF THEM:

1. Jordan - She told too many people about the book prematurely. She had a sneak peak of the book, it’s not meant for EVERYONE to know about it yet.

2. Lance - If he didn’t mess around in the first place the chances of this happening would have been much lower.

3. Harper - Just messy! Why would you write a pseudo book about situations you know this man doesn’t know about? Or If you thought he already knew about.. why wouldn’t you confirm it first?

Especially if you KNOW you didn’t tell him or talk to him about it. Also very wrong of you to still want him to get married to her knowing this news could derail things!

—————————-—————————-————————

💔MY ANSWER & WHY:

4. Maya - ugh… she is my pick.

Because why wouldn’t you tell your future husband that you have not only been with his friend before but that you were you his best man?!

That’s a conversation they should have had. And the movie does a STELLAR job of making her seem like she isn’t a major component of the problem.

From what it seems like, she never knew what was going on behind the scenes.

This further solidified her as the “good girl” because she SEEMED so innocent because she was in the dark.

In my opinion, Mia as Lance’s future wife, had more of a responsibility to tell Lance compared to Harper.

Harper was flawed BUT Mia was silent.

QUESTIONS:

*What’s your answer to this question??

* Also, if you were Lance would you have still married Mia that day?

... Read moreThe movie "The Best Man Holiday" has sparked many debates about who truly deserves the blame for the complicated events surrounding Lance, Harper, Jordan, and Maya. While Harper wrote a revealing pseudo-book about their circle of friends that caused tension, and Jordan prematurely shared spoilers, it’s important to consider the deeper dynamics at play. One interesting aspect is the concept of accountability within relationships. Maya, often painted as the "good girl," never disclosed to her fiancé, Lance, her past relationship with his best man—a fact many viewers might find surprising. This silence arguably contributes to the unraveling of trust and adds complexity to the narrative. In real-life relationships, open communication about past connections can be crucial to building a strong foundation. Another key point is that Lance’s own actions set the stage for difficulties. His infidelity before marriage fueled insecurities and issues that spilled into his friendship and engagement. Meanwhile, Harper's decision to publish without prior consent created unavoidable chaos, yet from a different viewpoint, it gave Lance a chance to confront uncomfortable truths before marriage. Reflecting on these characters offers insight into why blame is often misplaced or shared unevenly. It raises thoughtful questions about responsibility and transparency in friendships and romantic relationships. Would knowing the full truth beforehand have changed decisions? Could Maya's silence be seen as more than innocence but rather a critical omission? For fans and viewers, this discussion encourages us to look beyond surface judgments and explore the layered, human aspects behind conflicts. It also invites us to think about our own boundaries in sharing information and handling past relationships. Ultimately, "The Best Man Holiday" poses an important reminder: honesty and timing are vital, and everyone involved can contribute to both healing and hurt in complex ways.

Lance is my choice cause every action has a reaction if he wasn't being a man whore she wouldn't have felt the need to turn to Harper

If it wasn’t for Lance there wouldn’t be a story to tell. Mia was a virgin, he didn’t give a fuq. He even was a fake Christian for Mia getting on his knees for ppl to see acting as if he really believed what he was quoting. Was warned plenty of times by Harper in college who didn’t even believe in God partially because of Lance. Mia got cancer and died from stress and heartbreak. Mia did nothing wrong but seek what love was according to the Bible from Harper.
