Love your theory. It's very interesting and insightful.
However, if that's the case, Chantal is still a fucking idiot. Shocker, I know. Does she really expect to hold Peetz hostage for the rest of their miserable lives? Yes, he's a simp and a loser, but he, being a human being, deserves the right to pursue happiness. Regardless of how we feel about him, at some point he deserves to maybe meet a partner, have children, spend time with someone who loves, respects, and enjoys some of his interests. What kind of love life will he lead living with that Funky Fat Ass? None, or a very dysfunctional one as Chantal seemingly sees most women as catty bitches and competition, especially if they are thinner and prettier than she is, which is almost every other woman. She will make his dating life a living hell because she's a vindictive, hateful, bitter bitch.
What her stupid ass should have been doing since they moved there in April is downsizing her cost of living. But, no. Since she knows she has help, she has doubled down on the spending. The outrageous, expensive and tacky clothing hauls, stupid diet juices, vegetables that never got used, dumb gadgets, ugly costumes and useless props for time warp videos, and so much more. Fucking fool should have been building a savings account and working on getting a new car because she's clearly outgrowing her current one.
At 36 she lives as though when will always have someone to take care of her. Same when she was living with Bibi. He paid all the bills, so that meant she was free and clear to spend her money on dumb shit. And when her money ran out, she called up Peetz.
I don't care for Peetz, but on a humanistic level, the man deserves a life without that fat,cheating, leech of an ex-fianceé present at his every turn. Even if that's going back to his mom's house. However, that would require Peetz to grow balls, and up to now we have yet to see any.
