I also feel the need to say to you that HE is responsible for the behaviour that people don’t wish to support. That leaves HIM at fault for how HE has affected HIS family. Not YOU in anyway !!

The way he treated you in one only chat session I ever saw: He spoke ad nausium while you waited. He was watching you. You just sat there and smiled. He didn’t introduce to say Hi nor did he even acknowledge you. BIG BIG BIG warming signs to me.

@AA-lq5pu:
That's what gets me as someone who watches couples online. They usually make a big fuss introducing everyone to their new partner and make a whole episode of it. I watched Megan Kelly interview her husband and Candice Owen's interview her husband and there was such a palpable feeling of deep love and respect. Aaron tried to interview Jenna like she was just another guest. They never spoke about their love, how they met..its not normal.

Please don't take on any guilt that is not yours. You did not create this mess, the resolving of it is not your burden to carry.

@SharonBrown-yn6fz:
I agree. Be very careful Jenna. Don’t take him back. You don’t need to apologize at all. I have been there with the same kind of person who sees nothing wrong, with what they did to you and others, they play with your emotions as they r not important to them at all, please stay away from people like that. You will eventually see you didn’t deserve any abuse at all, it’s hard when you had abuse in your past but you will come out on top of it all. Please give yourself a chance to heal, My suggestion is don’t get Involved in any events or activities with them at all for a year to clear your head and you will see you don’t need them in your lives at all. Take care of yourself as you can’t be any good to your kids especially when you r being battered around like this emotionally or whatever. You will see you will be a better mom and person to others. It just takes time, Love Sharon from Vancouver island bc canada There r many others who have been in your shoes. And have good solid advise. Just ask us

@missytyrrell1:
There probably were lots of good things about the relationship. Fantastic - remember those.
Remember also, the cheating, the lying, the disrespect, the pain.
Perhaps his behaviour can be attributed to growing up the way he did. That doesn't mean he gets a free pass - he gets the opportunity to learn, grow, and change. You do not have to be the one he makes his mistakes with.

@bigfreetime-s4l:
Jenna darling, you have the most beautiful soul and it´s breaking my heart to see him taking advantage of your empathy and love for him like this. This ist exactly what narcs do to hoover you back in. You are his PERFECT prey on so many levels. He somehow made you think that the good times outweigh the real nasty stuff which is a classic tactic used by narcs to rewrite history. He´s not even a very smart narc, he´s very predictibal and average in that regard. We all can see right through it because we can see him, his words and actions from the outside with a neutral perspective. You have every right to forgive him or not, it´s your life story, but as someone who works in the psychological field and has overcome narc abuse myself I sincerely hope you´ll leave that cycle of abuse very very soon and put YOURSELF first again.
2025/01/15
@ReeMcC87:
I don’t know you personally but I have to say this video is unsettling. I sincerely pray for you Jenna. It’s so hard to get out of the grip of someone who is so obviously manipulative & disrespectful. Especially when they use your love for them against you. I also pray that he sees what he is doing is wrong. I hope he actually gets genuine help not to hurt those who so obviously care for him. Sending strength, protection & healing your way 💛
2025/01/15
@elisa-beary:
You make whatever decision feels best to you. I just wanna say you didn’t seem irrational in those videos, you seemed hurt & rightfully so. You’ve already been through so much & what happened is awful, not right, & heartbreaking. It would’ve been to anyone. It wasn’t the mature way to handle things when dealing with the emotions & life of another human being; much less who’s been there for you & loved you as you had. Wishing you all the best & continued healing & love on your journey!! This was not your fault. This is the behavior of someone who has a LOT of growing & work to do on himself. Yelling is one thing, what he did is quite another. I hope you know that! 💜🩷💙

@surrealistgirlx:
Sweetie, Please take care of yourself. I'm very worrier about you. You were raised in an incredibly damaged and have PTSD. You had a problematic relationship. Try doing nice fun things for yourself. Spend time with supportive friends especially the funny ones. You are enough. You are kind. You matter. We see you. Let yourself feel the love around. It would be helpful to distance yourself from Aaron. It has nothing really to do with him, but you need space to cry or anything else. Emotional distance is very helpful. Build those boundaries. Speak with a good therapist. Stay away from YT for a while. Sending much love and hugs.
2025/01/15
@Brooke52528:
You must follow your heart Jenna. But also, don't ignore your gut feelings either. I mean it when I say, if you and Aaron can work it out, that's a good thing. He is an extremely charismatic guy. I enjoy his content and I didn't unsubscribe from his channel when other's made a mass exodus. You will probably always have trust issue's if you get back together, that's inevitable. But perhaps you can get couples therapy and work things out❤ I wish you the best, you seem like an absolute sweetheart 💕

@Just_JuliaB:
Jenna, you have to take your power back. He apologised because he wanted wants power over you. How many times did he apologise to Lindsey? How many times did he go back to her after ripping her heart out. Dont get me wrong i am not a Lindsey supporter, but he will do to you what he has done to her... for year! Go back and listen to your videos and remember why you made them. I was an Aaron supporter but no longer. He was shown this last while that the things people were saying about him, which he claimed were vicious lies were infact the truth. I hope you find happiness away from ASL because he is not one of the good guys when it comes to relationships. Would you let your daughter date a guy like this? Would you let your son behave this? By allowing these behaviours around your kids they are going to think these behaviours are normal and that its ok. It's not. Anyway... i will continue to watch your content as you are my kinda lady, all crafty and such. Sending much love to you and your family and Happy New Year. Let 2025 be the year of a fresh start and new journeys.

I hope you are taking time for your self care. Example, going for walks in nature, taking a break from too much social media.

You’re a kind, beautiful soul and you will grow stronger thru this painful experience. Good thoughts to you.

@calboy2:
I'm a bit suprised that are letting Aaron's bullshit get to you and following his instructions for his personal benefit and not yours. You need to stay away from him as he's way better at manipulating you than you think. He's a professional and you are in the minor leagues. Stay away from him and find healthy support. Don't capitulate.

@purpledragonfly313:
Oh, this hurts my heart to see 💔 Classic manipulation and it’s even easier to buy into it when you have been taught anything bad is likely your own fault. You did not bring this onto yourself. You didn’t «pull it in». This is not on you. You Are not responsible. To see you backtrack like this, feel guilty about him losing subs (this is not your fault or decision). If you want a reminder then think about if you want to continue this cycle for years (like others have). Are you afraid to be the next subject of his hate campaigns? He doesn’t have disagreements. He goes into destruction mode. Doesn’t have to, but still does. This is not healthy for anybody. I hope he gets all the help, but this is not your problem to fix.

@ChimeraTruely:
This is your life, your world, and your channel. Thank you for sharing them with us, but please know that you have every right to remove videos, share less, or change your mind as your knowledge (or perspective) on a subject changes. Long-distance relationships are hard, and they are even harder when trust has been broken. It is so amazing to see how many people are supporting you, but it is also important that you never feel obligated to follow advice. That advice was given from a place of kindness, and people should be ok if you pick a different path. You and your kids have to be number 1 in your life. Don't let anyone say you reversed course because you shared other details of your relationship that were negative. Relationships are complicated, and it is very rare to be in one for over a year without any good times. It is easy to hang onto those good times for dear life when you are trying to excuse away the bad moments. At the time you made your videos, you needed to ensure you did not allow yourself to disguise the truth. Your past created a world where you would never thrive in a relationship involving deception. Even if other areas of the relationship were perfect, they still could not make up for that kind of betrayal. It was okay to focus on the bad parts to help you gain the strength to walk away for good. Now you get to decide how you move forward, and just because you can acknowledge your own flaws, it does not mean you portrayed things in a false light. Complicated situations mean that multiple things can be true simultaneously. Sending love your way. ❤

Sorry about my words, cause you said his apology means a lot to you…I can not forget that he hung up during your phone call with the words „why would I?“ (Jenna you know which situation I mean)….Wish you deeply all the best!Take care of you! Itˋs a process to heal and maintain distance is such a good manner to calm down and be yourself! Send you a big hug🫶…You know you are a strong woman!

We're all messiness and flaws. That's the human experience. This is your channel. If you felt the need to take your videos down, you shouldnt feel a need to explain that to anyone, but I do understand you explaining it so that people who aren't even involved will calm down and stop turning it into their fight, when it truly only has to do with you and those directly involved. I support you as a person, whose feelings and desire to be calm are valid. Be well

@RuthMcL1979:
Oh my love!! You have to do you, I totally get it. I would like you to consider your feelings when making those videos. Your feelings then ARE valid. Your feelings then ARE real, ARE true. I know what it’s like to look back on a relationship and wonder if I was as much to blame for arguments, could what I said/did have caused ‘x’ to happen to me, is it as much my fault as the other persons. But I also know those bad times have never happened with another person, and yet they continue to happen in the other persons relationships, including with their kids. It is ok to say, ‘yup, I coulda done better in that situation, but I DID NOT deserve what happened’! Because we don’t. Me and hubby have been through shit, we have a few good years and then a few horrible years, but he still treats me like his Queen and I still treat him as my King, we still come together, and in our space we are safe, we are happy, we are loved, we are solid. And that is what a partner-relationship SHOULD be. We have a different beginning to some, 9yrs are best friends, in different relationships. But we are STILL best friends! We barely argue, cos it’s each other we wanna talk it through with. And it’s not just us, I know my parents became best friends after their romantic relationship started.
Please, please, PLEASE (!), remember you are worthy, you deserve to be loved and treated how you love and treat the other person. And don’t invalidate your feelings cos you shouted back or got to the end of your rope, cos that person is the one who SHOULD be the one you can offload to, shout it out to, share your burdens with, are be heard WITHOUT PREJUDICE!!!
Sorry for the ‘shouting’ bits, that’s where my emphasis would be if I had spoken!! It doesn’t help I’m west coast Scottish, we are good at “emphasis” lol!!!
Your are loved, you should feel safe with that love xxxxxx

@alison2649:
Look, I like Aaron despite all this though believe me I’ve seen he’s flawed for quite awhile now. Regardless, I support his channel. But I feel l would be remiss if I didn’t say this bit- you said that he didn’t mean to hurt you. It wasn’t that Jenna,it was that he didn’t CARE if it hurt you. Not to mention he knew ultimately that even if you ever found out that he could talk his way out of it. So consider that. Someone who didn’t really care enough to change his behavior. Anyway on a somewhat dfrnt note- I tell all my girlfriends,be wary of men that are suddenly good looking for the first time in their lives. Like if they’ve had weight loss after having been heavy for years or if he’s suddenly buff,tattooed,etc. Big red flag that he’s doing it to be more attractive. But why? Attractive to who? When a man is tall & buff & gregarious other women are going to be into him and he’s ready for it. Jenna you can’t live like that,never knowing what he’s up to. 🤷🏻♀️

He is a horrible person and you are not at all. I couldn’t believe how incredibly strong you were by putting those videos out there. I don’t know how to put it in words, but it was just so unbelievable in a great way to see someone admitting that they were cheated on and go on about all the stuff he did just to take them down because he is “sorry” he never cared and never will about anyone. He didn’t love you. Don’t fall for it anymore. You will find an amazing man that truly loves you one day.

I'm glad I'm seeing top comments for Jenna trust herself. Jenna, you can be the most understanding person in the world. You look like you have a heart of gold, but never, ever undermine your experience because you can understand the others. You had a really hard upbringing, too. That did not make you cheat on the person you were in a relationship with. You CAN understand his behaviour, justify it or even relate with his story. I don't think that means you need to accept it or even me ashamed for feeling hurt.

@racheld7528:
I don’t say this with any hate. The attempt to make amends was for his gain. He did what Scientology taught him. Lie and do what is needed to get to the next thing. He did it in his relationships with you and others, and his viewers.
Honestly I thought about it and my feelings about watching the videos. When I sat and really thought about it, I realized that he is constantly rude and berating other people. Behind the scenes and then it gets to a boiling point and we get a small glimpse in front of the camera. But that small glimpse made me wonder about what was not seen. It also made me wonder if the behavior was any better than the people he talked about on his channel? That’s where I’m really sitting and struggling. Just because someone is out, doesn’t mean the behaviors they were taught are gone. This just finished opening my eyes to something I was starting to question.

Jenna, you do not have to hold hate in your heart to break up. You're allowed to remove your video w/out explanation, let alone an "acceptable" one. You never asked anyone to feel your hurt or act on it. Set your boundaries on your own and keep up your boundaries always. Try looking into childhood neglect an attachment disorders. It creates nsrcissistic and competitive traits, or the opposite. You are all competing with big anxious discomfort and distrust so much of the time. I don't have any answers for you but as an outsider I can tell you I believe Serge, Liz Gale, and J. Mustard have put in years of work (and art) and seem the most healed & stable. And when you get down lady, CREATE something. Bread, an artpiece or terrible music...bc you can add positive to the world.

@lewilbur:
3:44 but YOU never cheated. I also have a habit of making excuses for my "loved ones" especially when they gaslight me into "both sides". You don't need to make excuses for him. You don't need to apologize to him. He hurt you and betrayed you.
The one thing I have noticed about cheating in a relationships is that they will ALWAYS cheat on you again and again. Maybe in a different relationship they won't cheat, but once happens in your relationship, there is no repairing it.
(Good for you if you have a unicorn relationship that somehow got a cheater to stop but for most of us, it doesnt happen. The cheater waits 5 yrs? 10? A month??? ...Whenever they feel comfortable to cheat again...) Point is, ditch him. You don't have anything you need to repair between you two. Cheaters are never worth the heartache. Pick someone who always picks you first.

@kelliebellerina:
I support you. I support your channel, whatever you want to do with it. I love hearing how you feel, rather than those who try to speak for you.
Only YOU can decide what is best for you. YOU are the only one who has all the information to make those decisions. I don't love the hundreds of comments telling you not to take him back, none of us truly know what you're going through. Yes, we may all have similar experiences, but no 2 circumstances are exactly the same. The absolute last thing you need is a bunch of pressure from anyone at all or made to feel naive.
You are truly a genuinely sweet and beautiful spirit. Thank you for sharing it with us. I hope that everyone, both close to you and distant, treats you with the respect you deserve. You don't owe us an apology.
Forgiveness is ultimately about self care. Allow yourself to feel all of your feelings, process all the thoughts. When/if you are ready, you can decide to let go and move on unburdened by that pain. It is never something you owe anyone.
Sending loving healing vibes. Take care of you. Bake some bread, take a bubble bath, do the things that reconnect yourself with the present. Listen to your own voice. Love yourself. Forgive yourself.
Thank you again for making this video.

@SunshineSparks45:
I am 6 months free from a narcissist and Aaron reminds me so much of him. Do not believe a damn word he says, it's all lies. He truly does not care about you. The only person he cares about is himself. You must cut off all ties with him. Block him on everything and don't let him back in to your life. He seems to have convinced you that you are somehow at fault when you've done nothing wrong. You are entitled to speak out about what he has done to you and if he is threatening you with lawyers and defamation lawsuits, call his f-ing bluff. Speaking out will help you realize what he has done to you and how none of it was your fault. You aren't the only one he has done this too and speaking out may prevent him from doing this to another woman like you who doesn't deserve this. He doesn't want to look bad to his subscribers and speaking the truth makes him look horrible. And that's his problem and his alone. He did this to himself and soon you'll wake up and realize that you are the one with all the power and control. You've got the receipts and he knows it and he's scared. Girl, terrify him by speaking the truth and you will stop blaming yourself and second guessing everything and begin to feel secure again. He saw you as vulnerable and inexperienced and took advantage of you. I know how hard it is to cut ties with someone you love but it's necessary for your mental health.

@vickyvizio8447:
I did not un- subscribe to Aaron's Chanel solely because of your post. I did it because you were the last straw for me. You are not the only one who has complaints about his behavior. You just happened to the last. Do not let him gas light you like my ex did with me. He may not have " intended" to hurt you, but he knew it would. I learned that if I wouldn't do it to my partner, I could not allow my partner to do it to me. Hang in there. It will take time to heal and DO NOT LET ANYONE GAS LIGHT YOU into thinking you don't have the right to feel the way you do. All the love and prayers to you and your kids. Hope you all feel better soon. Oh yes...always remember a duck can only pretend to be a swan for so long before the yellow starts shining thru.

This video makes me sad. I hope you can get therapy. Your children are observing how you are treated. I’m concerned that you have friends that have broken normal meters from being in a cult or they are manipulating you for their personal gain. I really worry about your children in all this.
2025/01/15
@claritybadb:
Please don't believe anything he says. The bad things hurt you, and your feelings matter. His behavior matches patterns of those with narcissistic traits. Please look into the term "reactive abuse". You lashed out because you were attacked. That does not mean that you deserved any of it.
I've been in a similar spot, and professionals like Dr Lisa A Romano and Dr Ramani Durvasala have so much helpful content here on YouTube. I hope your taking good care of yourself. ❤

It took me a long time to move beyond my toxic ex. But once you’re fully out of it you will stop remembering the “good times” and see the relationship for what it was.

@JasonSmith-pe5py:
Well said,& very classy of you also. You & Aaron's personal lives are none of my business but I hope you both keep kicking Scientologys ass...but the public bickering & drama between all of you only helps the cult. You doing this video is very constructive in my opinion. As opposed to the arrogant, hypocritical & narcissistic post Leah did the other day. When she should have been eulogizing her friend Mike...for all the issues we had with him at times-he did do a lot of good. But she chose that time to attack more than half the SP community which is ridiculous.

@carolannelunan5329:
Telling your truth is not vindictive….. you are not responsible for the consequences Aaron may/may not reap. He may finally reap what he sowed and that is not on you. His apology is good and may or may not be genuine. Only time will tell and it is not for anyone to judge. I hope you are able to move on and be happy …. You deserve better and there is no such thing as someone being 100% guilty or 100% innocent. Taking responsibility for your share is good but what he did was wrong. Eventually he needs to grow up and be a real man and stop using Scientology as an excuse. Cheating and lying were not taught in Scientology …..one can choose to control that. The first time one cheats “may” be a mistake, but repeated cheating, lying and name calling it is a pattern and is abusive. Reacting to abuse is a natural reaction, as is being hurt and feeling abandoned ….. you do not need to be in recovery from a cult to react and feel this way, but I am sure it escalated your feelings. Be kind to yourself, you have been through a lot and the way he behaved was not love, and is not loving.

Jenna you said you weren’t yourself anymore, you were miserable in bed, etc. If you can’t terminate the relationship for your own self please do it for your kids then. Kids KNOW what’s going on, they KNOW when things aren’t right, they shouldn’t have to have their mom be treated like this. You might think you’ll be able to hide it when you’re upset, sad, mad, etc—but they’re going to pick up on it. They’re going to be affected by it. If you can’t remove Aaron for your own benefit then please please do it for them. Abuse affects everyone Jenna. I know your kids matter I’ve listened to you speak about them. This is important as a parent. By protecting yourself you are also protecting THEM. Jenna you are not responsible for that man’s income and family—HE did this not you. Protecting your kids and your health and your bond with them is most important. They are going to be adversely affected by their mom continuing on in this kind of relationship. I’m sorry I’m probably pissing you off but it’s the truth and I know you care deeply about their wellbeing.
2025/01/15
@harmdizzle1979:
I don’t think Aaron betrayed you to hurt you, I think he did it DESPITE the fact that it would hurt you. He’s done videos chastising people who were caught cheating, so it’s not that he’s just damaged and doesn’t know any better. He could very well have unresolved trauma, I believe that 100%. But the truth is that he knows his behavior is wrong and hurtful, otherwise he wouldn’t care if everyone knew about it. Of COURSE you got an apology! He was leaking subscribers, he had to plug the hole! Kinda weird that it took all that pressure to do the bare minimum. As far as his family goes, it is HIS responsibility as a man to behave in a manner that is honorable to his family. It is NOT everyone else’s responsibility to keep his secrets or make excuses for his behavior! I understand taking your video down for your own peace of mind. If they served their purpose and YOU no longer want it on your channel anymore I totally get behind that. Someone who treasures someone else will not do something to risk loosing their treasure. Just know that you are worth being treated as such.
2025/01/15
@follybeachusa:
Please stay away from him. He can’t be faithful. He knows better and he just can’t not cheat. Ask Heather. Glad he apologized but do not let him back in. You need to get help and realize your self worth. You’re an amazing and beautiful young woman. You deserve a partner who values you. Sadly, I don’t think Aaron will ever change.

Don’t defend someone who hurt you. He is a pathological liar and abusive guy. He may love bomb you again and appeal to your compassionate side. He doesn’t feel the way you do.

@cirimpufka:
he was hurting, so he had to stick his penis into another woman. i get it. YOU were overreacting when you made the videos. now he sincerely apologized to you, so you took down the videos. he is losing subscribers so you are telling us not to unsubscribe because he needs money. for his family. or cocaine, or hookers, or booze. but he needs money. jenna, don't forgive. he will not.

@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
Even if he doesn't hurt your children directly, by hurting you, he hurts them. Children who watched their parents go through trauma will be traumatized. And he will continue to hurt you. It's all he knows.

@zeldahopper:
I was in a married to someone like ASL, I would always think... No one else truly understands. When I explained it, it felt like no one could understand that it was actually my fault too.( Or so I thought) Or that no one understood why he did what he did ..but I did. I was the only one who understood him. Etc etc. thats what i used to think and part of the reason i went back and stayed for so many years. But when i hear you speak it takes me right back to how i used to behave with my ex. Textbook!!! You will continue this cycle until you decide enough is enough. No amount of words from any of us will convince you until you decide foe yourself deep down that youre done. That even if youre single for the rest of your life it would be better than giving up your self respect another day to stay in relationship with that person. You will get there. I hope for your sake it is sooner rather than later

@rebeccahowell6538:
So sorry you went through that. When it happened to me- I thought no one could understand. People were like- he's a jerk- move on. But I was hurting. My heart was broken. I felt destroyed. I didn't think anyone could understand. That what happened to me was my fault- that I was desperate or stupid. Finally, after drinking myself into a stupor- I sought help. The therapist cried when I told her my story. She validated my feelings. She understood the hell I was going through. The not knowing WTF happened to me and why I stayed with this man. It was so helpful. I'm fine now (although this story is triggering) = get help Jenna. The person who hurt you- can't heal you.

@ColH0m3r:
Jenna, your genuine positive spirit, your genuine kindness and the genuine goodness that permeates from all of the videos you post is what brought me here and I don't see that any of that has changed one bit, so I'm not planning on going anywhere. Love seeing your openness and constant drive to improve! I admit that I had a visceral reaction to seeing you in so much pain in your previous videos and it was clear that at least some of that was caused by someone I used to admire, so I've chosen to cut ties with that person. Hopefully they work work on their own inner demons and come out the better for it, but these feelings that they aren't exactly who they present themselves as on YouTube have been brewing for me for awhile now, outside of what went down between the two of you, all though that does seem to be what "broke the camel's back" for me. Here's hoping that you find peace and healing in your journey ahead because you deserve that and so much more!!!

Jenna, you are a beautiful soul. I know there is no agony like that of being betrayed and cheated on, so it shows particular integrity on your part that you don't want to see Aaron hurt by your videos. I just want to say that your own imperfections don't justify his behavior toward you. It's good that you are introspecting, but I think you are very hard on yourself, which makes me sad. I highly encourage you to take some time without a man in your life and go within, which is a solo journey. If I understand your story accurately, you married Dallas while you were still in Scientology, and then shortly after your divorce, you got involved with Aaron. (If I'm mistaken about the details please forgive me.) I think you need time to find out who YOU are, not in relation to a cult, a religion, or a partner. You've never had that opportunity. Once you have found yourself as an individual (a powerful, independent soul), you will be ready to share that precious individuality with another person and forge a partnership. I send you many hugs and blessings.

If Aaron is concerned about the consequences of his actions, he should make better choices and get help. You aren’t responsible for his finances or troubles.

I think you are very insightful and intelligent. You will figure it out. I’m not a fan of divorce. Personally, after 45 years in one marriage, I believe it’s better to build on the family relationship even without exciting strides.

Don't know what else to say except I really respect your candid, charitable and forgiving approach to this unhappy situation and towards Aaron. Not for his sake, but for yours. It will help you heal and hopefully move forward.
Also hope you remember that forgiveness and expressing good will towards Aaron doesn’t mean he gets to be in your life. Despite his good qualities he seems like a disaster area as a romantic partner. Thats on him, not on you.
This post gives me hope you are working through your hurt in a healthy way. And are ready to take the next step of walking away from him and not looking back.

He has done a lot of really terrible things... Not at all the kind of stuff we should just forgive and forget. Have you followed it? Sexual predation on vulnerable women coming to the foundation in crisis. Refusing to even entertain the notion that he shouldn't do these things. Committing to protracted campaigns to destroy the people and the foundation, for daring to hold him to the most minimal standard. Sex tourism to locations most famous for providing men access to children...

Jenna. you don’t need to apologise for anything you have said or done. I urge you to rewatch your videos so you don’t forget how you were treated. Everyone should take responsibility for their own actions in life and don’t blame other people. I’m glad he apologised for his behaviour but remember it was only after he got caught out Take time to heal and renew important friendships. Maybe therapy could help you as well. Your family are the most important things in your life and I’m sure your children don’t like seeing you hurt or upset. Take care Jenna you are a beautiful soul with so much kindness. Looking forward to more content from your channel in2025. 💝

@FUNKY_BUTTLOVIN:
Do not feel bad at all because he did a lot of beyond suspect things to, what is it, every woman that he's linked up with? Including vulnerable women coming to him, he in a position of authority, and just abusing that position and them to this degree that is just, so far beyond the pale. He single handedly ruined the Aftermath Foundation and has no appreciation for the fact that HE DID THAT, in the course of doing bad things he never should have done, he broke something that was good, and refused to take any responsibility.
Sure, he isn't INTENTIONALLY hurting you or any of the other women that he has just been terrible to... i.e., all of them.
The good he has done has probably not exceeded the bad, and it's just... right? It is NOT unforgivable. It isn't worth hating him over, I don't think he is fundamentally bad, etc etc etc
But he is just far too flippant in doing this extensive damage to people and their lives, groups, entire communities, non-profits that did nothing but good, up until that moment they made the mistake of allowing him on the board.
I do get that so much of it is truly down to not knowing better, being immature, and not having been given an environment in which normal psychosocial development would ever have been possible... and coming from an environment, a culture where people are disgustingly adversarial towards one another, not yet having learned that this is something that truly just has no place in the world, that this is something that needs to be abandoned entirely .
There was a lot of real damage done though, and I know I personally felt lied to, like, Leah and Mike positioned as these villains, then after many months, I think maybe even a couple years, this trickle trickle of information turns into the dam breaking, the realization that he truly was a pretty extreme problem above all else, that he was doing things anyone in his position should never, ever even consider doing, causing real harm to vulnerable people, and wrecking the group that existed only to help such people, out of ego, and just hating them for daring have these very low standards for him... please don't prey on desperate, broke, vulnerable women who are coming here, begging us, via you, for help in the crises they are facing.
You saying your piece was truly important and valuable because Aaron HAD TO be given a wake up call, he needed to realize, he WAS position ing himself as the bad guy and the ruiner, undo-ing all the good that so many were slaving away, trying to accomplish.
I haven't tracked the community response to all this because I honestly, just removed myself from this space entirely, once I realized the extent of Aaron's misrepresentation of the basic facts, I felt ashamed of how I was publicly cursing Mike and Leah and Aftermath, when all they ever did, was say, we can't allow for someone we've imbued with power and authority here, to prey on vulnerable women that come to us for help.
I truly hope Aaron has grown and done a ton of soul-searching, I hope he understands just how destructive he has been, I hope he has the capacity to grow and see that the trust that others give you is a sacred commitment and you are failing all that is good when you blow all that off, all for physical pleasures.
This seems to be a real problem with Scientologist men and this DJ Donkeypunch type behavior, it's got to go, it is , it must be, a complete blindspot for him, effects the cult had on his soul that he hasn't been able to tease out and recognize as absolutely terrible traits that he should buckle down and settle for nothing lesss, than figuring out how to entirely obliterate from himself.
Anyway I don't want to talk in circles, but I had so much respect for Aaron and what he does, and HE singlehandedly ruined that. Every bit of it.
I truly hope he does a great deal of soul searching and thinking about what matters, and what doesn't matter, in this life.
If you are a good man, save for all that sexual predation you've done, you're not a good man. If you are ruining people and destroying groups that do good work for vulnerable people in crisis, only because they're demanding you be better than absolutely terrible, that's sociopathic, it's sick.
These are hard words but, they have to be spoken. I earnestly hope he can grow and become a man.

2025/01/15
@buttlord-v4i:
So much of the stuff he has done really is just so egregious. Predatory. Like, I am a man who loves women. I have a lot of affection for them. And even as a young man, coming out of a very bad situation at home, going into a hostile world, being a bit autistic, very angry and having pretty extreme mental health stuff affecting me fairly often, even as a young man, I'd never have done any of these horrid things Aaron seems to be compelled to do routinely.... and then either feign ignorance that he's done anything wrong at all, or genuinely be too narcissistic and sociopathic to grasp that he has, yet again, just exploded past the boundaries of human decency, like they don't exist, or don't matter at all.
Being decent to other people, not being evil to people, these are some of the only things that actually really matter in life. Failing in these ways, ARE failing entirely at life, it makes you less than a man, it makes you truly undeserving of love, period.
How we feel about people is complex, and it doesn't make sense. But I do hope Jenna can see that these are not normal, understandable failings. Forgive him if you want, but anyone who treats ANYBODY as he treats so many people, is not someone you should waste ANY time on or with, not someone you should subject yourself to, not someone you should make the mistake of assuming has the potential to be better.
Does Aaron deserve love? I think that's the wrong question. I don't see any evidence to suggest he is capable of experiencing love. This is so much deeper than just some issue of having been failed and improperly socialized, down to being raised in the cult. These are deeper issues, there is something dramatically wrong with him, and he needs to be alone and work on himself, alone, in hope he might, at some distant point in the future, be worthy of love.
Until then.... Jenna is a beautiful woman with rare depth and intelligence and empathy... Where Aaron is just, so grossly lacking in the soul department, there's nothing there to build on, no reason at all to suspect that there's the capacity or will stirring in him, to ever become a worthwhile human being, let alone a good partner, father, everything else she should want, demand, and she deserves.
Thank you so much Jenna for saying what you did, and please, know that you did a tremendously good thing in just honestly speaking about him. Your voice carries a weight so many don't, because you are a plainly decent person. Any harm to his reputation is entirely his fault, and he would have continued being a predator and harming folks, then maligning THEM, publicly, over and over and over again, had you not done your piece to show the YouTube viewing public these facets of his character. You have saved women from being preyed on, others from being maligned... possibly there would have been another nonprofit torpedoed, with all her good works, ruined... Lol
For real though, the things Aaron has done are so wild and not even remotely funny. So freakishly destructive. Good people forced into hiding, for years... I'd sooner die than do some of the things he's done, an is entirely unrepentant about. If bad men exist at all, Aaron is among their ranks. And this is entirely his own doing, he worked hard to be this evil. Don't feel bad about telling the world any of the things you said... Be proud that you did the right thing. Be proud that you are decent enough to see that people needed to know who and what he is, even though it was hard, and hurt you to do. You are a good person, and this is the one thing that truly matters in life.
2025/01/15
@christinak2487:
Very disappointing. This is repeated abusive behavior & that person should not have a platform, even if they have a family relying on them. Sadly I feel this is someone being gaslit & their empathy being used so Aaron doesn’t have consequences. He’s going to do this again.

@michellelee2433:
He had a good job before YouTube , I remember him saying how much Mike used to make working for him. He can do that, he hasn't had the subscriber's he has for long, Plus, he won't even divorce his wife and pay her child support and alimony! He needs a reality check!

You have an emotional intelligence that YouTube probably isn’t ready for. Your experiences, your feelings and your own integrity are not for anyone else to own.

Genuine support and friendship shouldn’t be conditional. Your path is uniquely yours and you have the absolute right to choose the best way to navigate it. ❤
2025/01/15
@buttlord-v4i:
She absolutely does have a depth that few do, which makes me worry so much for her, because Aaron is completely devoid of any depth. And she is surely too close to this to be able to see it properly. She is ALWAYS driven to do what is right, which is exactly why she is just too good to waste her time on an untermensch who doesn't even see the world in terms of good and evil. A hedonist who is out to get his kicks, regardless of their human cost. Routinely doing things that others universally recognize as grossly predatory and not just wrong, but evil.
Using your position on the board of a nonprofit, to hook up with desperate, vulnerable woman who have come to you, in crisis, and driving them to deeper depths of desperation, fracturing their fragile mental states.... Then insisting you did nothing wrong, morality is for the birds and "normal people don't care" about their petty concerns... His priorities are so insanely backwards, the most important aspects of existence are things he dismisses as silly notions, completely violating the spirit that animates an organization like The Aftermath Foundation. He acts like this is his private life and they are overstepping in caring at all, when he is using his position on their board to prey on vulnerable women, leaving them broken, possibly psychotic, apparently drugged-up. Victimized by the very people they went to for help.
Then he attacks the group itself, successfully maligning them in the public eye and severely damaging their ability to help people, because they dared suggest that he should possess a mote of human decency in his dealings with others, as a representative of their group.
Sure, Aaron has not had things easy. Who has? If we are saying a hard life excuses preying on people, then we are excusing L. Ron Hubbard, Danny Masterson, and David Miscavige with the same sentiment.
Aaron will never have the capacity to ever be a tenth of the person Jenna deserves. She is a wonderful person and she can, and should, enjoy a wonderful life with a light heart. She is better off alone, than compromising herself to be a match for someone so grotesquely below her, on the only metric that truly means something about a person.
Get far away from Aaron, don't concern yourself with having the approval of anybody who approves of him, stay on the path. You have been a success in life so far, you have not lost sight of what matters. Let him be lost and confounded on his own, he struggles and fights against his better nature all the time, that he might keep indulging empty, hedonistic desires in grossly antisocial ways. Working hard to twist his own mind day by day, finding the justifications as to why being bad is good. Never growing, continually waking up with a heart heavier than the one he had yesterday, getting more and more lost, oblivious to what matters, or how to find peace and happiness. His bank account growing as his humanity, along with the little good and decent within him, constantly shrinks.
I am not disappointed in Jenna at all, she did the right thing 100% in saying what she did, and there's no reason she should feel compelled to leave those videos about some very private, sensitive subjects up forever. I just pray she is not worried about pleasing Aaron or his supporters, and I pray she keeps him in her rear view mirror, a mistake, a host of lessons learned. I doubt he taught her anything of value at all, because how could he have? But I do hope that he maybe learned a bit about decency, goodness, depth, and what truly matters in life from her.
I doubt his capacity to have done so... But in the interest of the good thing he could become, if so motivated, and those he'll impact in his life, I truly hope she made an impression on him.
Miracles happen every day. And the miracle of someone as spiritually bankrupt, hopelessly lost, and thoroughly indecent as him, being given the opportunity to be close to someone like Jenna, just for a time, and maybe seeing what she is and wanting what she has, abandoning the path to nowhere he was on at middle age, and becoming a good person... that truly would be a miracle. And he could on to have a better impact on the world with his platform with that... Like I said, I doubt his capacity to even have recognized what she has, that he is so deficient in, the significance of it, etcetera. I think he lives a life of empty pleasure-seeking and he can't even conceive of anything deeper or more meaningful. I think he discounts all the mysteries of life, and has no faith that we might be here for any reason, doing anything of any consequence.
But if he has had some seed planted, or even primed himself to maybe experience a spiritual awakening someday, as a consequence of his interaction... That could be a great thing, and maybe a heartening possibility for Jenna. Though, I hope for her sake, she can disinvest in caring about him one way or the other. Move on to better things, chalk him up to lessons learned. One last bad adventure, as a reminder that for young people, adventure itself, adventure alone, is something most of us seek out. But after a certain point, we don't have enough time, patience, or interest for good AND bad adventures, and we need to demand good adventures, or none at all

@Mia_Louiise:
I grew up with a parent that cheated on my other parent & I can tell you the one that was cheated on was shattered. Not a day went past that they forgot about it & it was hell as a child to see. They never divorced but it had an impact on me growing up. My view now is, if you’re going to cheat you shouldn’t be in that relationship & that’s how I have lived my life since. I hope you find peace, strength & put your children/you first at this stage. No child deserves seeing a parent treated like this.

@clairebear5448:
Jenna, you specifically said the reason you made the previous video was for you to watch it, so you could see how horrifically he treated you - so you would never go back with him. You are now backtracking and minimizing how toxic and abusive your relationship was. It's incredibly sad that you feel you don't deserve better. I hope you really hear all the comments here. We are the same people who were supporting your decision to leave. Do the right thing for you, and your children.

You deserve the best & it will come when your heart is ready.

@NessG3:
Jenna just because you are an imperfect person like the rest of us humans, doesnt mean him cheating on you is justified. Just because you may have yelled too sometimes, doesnt mean you drove him to cheating and it doesnt mean you deserve it. You're making excuses for him when you said you know he didnt mean to hurt you intentionally. Yes, he did. He didnt fall into anybody. He chose to go in. You are letting him gaslight you. He is such a red flag. Don't fall for his act.😢

Jenna, maybe it's time for him to get a real job, rather than you backing down. This is typical after being abused. They love bomb you and brainwash you, and tell you " If you didn't do ___, I wouldn't have done it." ( Which is completely wrong and b.s. excuses.) Of course he's going to beg and blame you. Study narcissistic behavior.
Sorry you experienced all of this. It wasn't a one night slip. These were ongoing relationships behind your back. He absolutely knows right from wrong and doesn't care.

@HankBaum:
Dear Jenna, I’m going to comment what I did on one of the other videos you’ve taken down:
Jenna, you said, “This is a liar, and a cheater, and a betrayer, and those behaviors, and those qualities in someone do not just restrict themselves to somebody’s private life or sex life. If somebody’s going to lie and cheat and steal in their relationship to the person who they say they love most in the world, that they care about most in the world, who they’re telling every day how much they love them, then they’re going to do it everywhere else. They’re going to do it on the internet. They’re going to do it to friends. Everywhere. It is a character flaw, not a sex life flaw.”
You expressed your feelings so well in this particular part. (And today I want to add to the above that I hope you reread your words I’ve typed out for you every day. They were so, so, spot on, intelligent, and thoughtful. They came from YOU. Be always on your side, Jenna. Don’t join the other team against you, because then you cease to exist.
2025/01/15
@childofcascadia:
Jenna - cheating is not ok. The emotional abuse you went through is not ok. It seems like you are trying to "make everything better/dont rock the boat". Which is a common reaction of people who suffered emotional trauma growing up and also people who are currently close to someone with NPD. Aaron isnt a monster. Hes a human being who like all humans is complex and has good things and bad things in his personal makeup. Part of that complexity is the fact that he suffered severe emotional trauma growing up which led to maladaptive coping strategies and trouble in romantic relationships.
The issue is, those maladaptive coping mechanisms dont go away on their own. The person has to take a long hard look at themselves sometimes with the guidance of a trained professional like a psychologist that specializes in trauma. And make a conscious effort to change. And its not easy. Its one of the hardest things a person can do. Its like ripping a bandage off a festering wound to drain the pus. It reveals the ugly horrific wound the person would rather keep hidden even if by keeping it hidden, its causing harm.
The issue being, sometimes maladapted people learn all they have to do is make what sounds like a heartfelt apology to avoid that look at their metaphorical festering mental wound. Then they can just keep it covered and continue exactly as they were before.
I know. Ive been there.
Its great he apologized. But hes not going to change that easily. He has some very unhealthy patterns in how he conducts himself among those close to him. Please dont let him back in your life. His actions are not drunken "oops" cheating. They are calculated. His emotional treatment of you isnt normal in relationships. Ive been happily married for a decade. And yeah, we sometimes bicker or argue. But it never ever devolves into personal attacks, belittling bullying or invalidating. Thats just not healthy.

Jenna Whatever decision you make please think of yourself first. We know That you and aaron had something special. Is that there was a lot of good times. We never thought That it was all bad. He messed up, & he hurt you. People can be a good person and sometimes a crappy boyfriend or girlfriend. Is it going to been from all the pressure. We don't know, & We shouldn't guess. We understood why you made the video. We No you were hurting. Your intention wasn't too maliciously hurt anyone else. Your emotions run high. We and watching you long enough. We may not know you personally. Yet we can get a sense, Of what type of person someone is & were they are coming from. Don't feel guilty, Of what we say. Some people take too far. We know it is a personal situation between the both of you. You're not type of person, To come on and cry tell a personal situation. We It had to be something that deeply hurt you for you to do that. Listen I have an ex who I am still friends with yrs later & we broke up because he cheated on me. He gave me a heart felt apology. Took me a awhile to except it. I realized, I know when before we started any type of intimate relationship. He's a good guy. Just not a good boyfriend to me. Every situation is different. You can't blanket statement all. It's OK. It wasn't right or wrong. We are not going to define you of that one incident. I know my friends & I enjoy watching your videos & will continue to do so. We are not going to act silly & attack anyone on your behalf. Anyone who watches you , would know that is not what you were going for. Jenna take a deep breath, give yourself grace. You are good person. It will be ok. People take years to build. Their youtube channels. Your channel is still in being stages. You still got a great following. More time goes by, the people who don't get you Will be gone, & people you build over time, It will be the people who truly want to be here. Who will have your best intentions. That does take a little time. You are already almost there faster then most people. You stood up for yourself, for your friends & people you love, While you were You were in scientology. Even When the same people you stood up for didn't do the same in return. This is something that was naturally in you. Not something anyone had taught you. Is the care in the love in your heart was strong, it beat all odds. You broke the Cycle. You did that all on your own. So your children, Have loving childhood. That's why I admire you so much. Sometimes you go in to make mistakes, lol, I'm glad, First. Because you learn from them. 2nd That just means you are human. Something that's how you try take out of people. Take some time off cuddle with your children drink some tea, Watch some. Movies. Know you are loved. Could be thankful for all the good you have in your life. That you build.

Not because my man was a bad man but because how he treated me was not good for me. I needed just someone different and he could never be that. In the end it is not fair for either party. Just realize someone out there might be a better match for you, as well maybe Aaron needs someone who is a better match for him. The person you chose should always make you feel enough in every way.

Jenna- forget his words. Lets look at his deeds. He cheats one his wife and then says they have an "open marriage"- Heather never agreed to an open marriage. Then he gets involved with a "fan" in California- spends the weekend boozed up and on drugs and it ends in a public fight on the street in broad daylight. Next he harasses a woman in a bar. He then repeatedly gets with an obviously vulnerable struggling addict who just got out of jail. That was your competition. He bragged to Mike about escorts. He lost his position on the Aftermath Foundation. He cheated on you but conveniently broke up with. you so he could cheat and then say you were on a break. You had to go see him- he didn't even care enough to come see you. He lives on the other side of the country- how convenient. He is living a double life- but with the internet- you find out online. What's more- he never even told people you were his girlfriend- why? " Because he didn't want a public break up"- yep- that's what he said. Because he wasn't playing for keeps Jenna. He doesn't respect you and you have to stop thinking he is like you. He is not sweet and sensitive and kind. He is a player and he is laughing.

Darlin, it’s going to happen again. You are an exceptional person, but you’re not going to be an exception on this one.
The tough truth is that if you re-allow this back in your life, you’re choosing to keep chaos, instability, and pain in your children’s lives. They only get one childhood, and it really is your responsibility to protect it.
I’m so very sorry this happened to you and I hope that the collective support of thousands of us can give you the strength to move on for the sake of your kiddos.

@merrivideo:
Jenna, you are not alone. There are people oke who love you: friends, family, your kids. They aren't ashamed for you having defended yourself of the abuse you had been going through. They are happy to know that you realized it was happening and are ready to support you. It is completely healthy to forgive an abuser because forgiving is letting go the pain and the need to make justice to feel good about yourself. You can feel good about yourself even if the abuser never changes. At the same time, forgiving doesn't mean that you are ignoring everything that happened nor opening your arms back to your abuser. Protect your integrity, your peace, your dignity, stay away from the abuser, seek help to keep him away. It must be extremely difficult because you love him. He doesn't love you back and I'm really sorry for that. It must hurt so so much. You deserve love and respect, everyone deserves that. You are as worth as anybody else, you should also receive love and respect. I send a lot of love to you, Jenna. This things take time and fail attempts too. Don't feel ashamed of failing to get away from your abuser. Try it again, built self love and a strong community around you. You are not alone, seek company, seek new friends. You can do it, you will do it.

@TheBriar_123:
I am glad that you took the videos down. I understand that you and Aaron are both public figures, and that cheating is such a blindsiding event. But outing him as a cheater in a video is not going to bring you peace. I hope you are able to heal and find someone who does deserve you.

@NinaLucky60:
People need to know what a cheating verbally abusive loser he is. He portrays himself as this good guy trying to look out for others. When in fact he's a low down pig that can't be trusted anymore than the scientology dogs he reports on. The truth hurts. If he doesn't want to be portrayed as a cheating abusive dog than HE SHOULDN'T BE ONE. Don't diminish your feelings. He CHEATED you didn't. OH PLEASE he didn't see it as intentionally hurting you but he KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING and DID IT ANYWAY.

His family's well being obviously isn't HIS concern or he'd behave like a decent human being so why should YOU care?

@CheSheChe:
Ugh! My daughter is in a relationship very similar to what you described. Very intense, screaming, degrading, cheating, disrespectful, etc. She won’t leave or realize her worth. She tells me all this shit about her boyfriend and how he treats her, makes excuses for him AND has the audacity to ask me why I don’t like him! She’s 5-years in this horrible relationship and it has just torn her down so low where she only hears his voice and is now agreeing and saying the awful things about herself that he’s says to her.
This video was triggering for me because no matter how many excuses you try to make to clean up what you already revealed to your audience, at the end of the day, ABUSE IS STILL ABUSE! This is sad! Take care of you because if you don’t want to leave, you’re not! 😢 I learned that from my daughter! I truly wish you well!

He has hoovered you and played into your insecurities. From what I have seen, he may have bullied you. You sound like you are making excuses for hia bad behaviour. You were very justified in how you felt, he cheated on you, your tears, anger, and disbelief was well deserved. You were brainwashed by your religion, and now he is brainwashing you. I came from an abusive childhood and dysfunctional family, but I don't make excuses for another's bad behaviour. Your life, your choices, and definitely your consequences.
2025/01/15
@jknott123:
Ok…well this is her life and I respect her decision. Let’s keep in mind they both grew up in a very dysfunctional cult without any parental guidance. So these are two people struggling to know what normal looks like after raising children and divorcing from young marriages. We’re watching someone’s life through a different lens. Let them live and learn from their own experiences. It’s less narcissistic and maybe co-dependency and that’s just them surviving from a cult like atmosphere.

Let's not be hard on her in the comments because we've all been there and know there's stages to a break up. This is where she's at. And she's got more balls than most of us to share it so maybe it's helpful to someone. Maybe even her.
Remember the stages and we all go through them differently. Much love.

Girly I can't watch this video for my own sanity but I want to leave you with some love and support anyways. As much as you love him, let him go.

Trust me, you'll be glad you're single and clear headed when you meet the right person. Don't waste another second on this man!

Aaron is a drunk who is always causing drama. He’s very good at manipulating people & making himself the victim. Please stay away from him, he’s toxic. You deserve a man that treats you with respect. Hang in there, this too shall pass.
2025/01/15
@Southern-Sleuth:
Jenna, Thank you for updating us. I appreciate your honesty. I also want to express my honest opinion and I really mean it with respect. I'm not willing to forgive Aaron yet. I do pray he does some soul searching and self-reflection. I also wish he would get some counseling for his deep inner unresolved pain. There's help that doesn't cost $300 a session. I think we're all redeemable and I want him to continue to improve himself.
I understand and respect what you're saying, but Aaron's cheating was intentional though Jenna. He's a grown man. He didn't tell you he wanted to be with Lindsay again because he knew you would be hurt and upset. That proves he was lying intentionally. That isn't love.
Even his kids were hoping he treated you better than their mom. Once a cheater, always a cheater. Please remember that. If he REALLY loved you, he wouldn't have cheated on you with Lindsay and many other women at the same time. You were right. He did treat you like a common wh0re. That's not love. This is not a result of losing a parent at a young age. Many people unfortunately lose parents at young ages but they don't treat others so horribly like this.
He's also a liar and manipulator. He has treated Heather, Lindsay, other women and you the same way, plus several of his ex-Scientology friends that are your friends too. That isn't love.
He has screamed at numerous people besides you. This is a pattern of behavior. Raising voices is different from SCREAMING to whete you're hoarse the next day. We all raise our voices if we get angry, but his screaming at you and others crosses the line to verbal abuse and complete disrespect. He has anger management control issues.
Nora was trying to support you and stand up for herself as well. I understand you don't want any part of it. I hope it was your choice and not Aaron crying to you that she hurt him. Aaron hurt her very deeply too. She is fresh from being hurt by him too. Yes, she could have gone about it in a less aggressive tone. I think she's just tired of seeing him hurting numerous ex-Scientology members. I know you don't want to see Aaron hurt, but please remember Aaron has been the one hurting others besides you. He's also hurt Liz G, Liz F, Dillon, Serge, Reece, Miriam, Christy, Leah, Rinder and the rest of the Aftermath Foundation board.
Him not telling you he had been sleeping around was irresponsible because you could have contracted an STD. Some are incurable.
I'm extremely glad he apologized to you. I know you love and care about him. Please just don't reduce his bad behavior because he apologized. His behavior was verbally abusive and extremely disrespectful, and irresponsible. He is no where ready for a monogamous relationship. He is no where ready to be faithful.
I guarantee he cried a lot when he apologized to you. I just question his motives. I hope he didn't ask you make this video or plant the idea in your mind. I know you are a strong and brave woman who can take care of herself.
Please don't rush back into a relationship with him. With you both living on opposite sides of the country, you'll never be able to know if he's being faithful to you. I just don't want to see you hurt again. I'm afraid he'll love bomb you and then it will start all over again. I know you care about him very much, that's why it's harder for you to see it. I just worry he will suck you back in. Unless he gets assistance with impoving his ghosting behavior, I doubt it will change. He's done this with numerous relationships and friendships over at least 20 plus years. He's told us before how him and Heather wouldn't speak. He said they would fight all the time. This is improper and immature communication from a grown man. I still don't understand why he hasn't gotten a divorce, especially when he said over a year ago he was. It's unfair to his wife, girlfriends and other women he's sleeping around with, as well as his kids. Him not knowing how to have healthy relationships because of his past is another huge reason that counseling would benefit him greatly. I think his ego is preventing him possibly from pursuing this. If he really Wants to stop losing relationships, friendships and sabotaging his life, then it's confusing why he doesn't prioritize this and actually give it a try for a period of time. Going one time doesn't work. You also have to find someone you feel comfortable with. I went once a month for 5 years for depression. PTSD, suici d@l ideations, chronic pain/Fibromyalgia, anxiety and post concussion syndrome. It helped save my life, improve my depression and relationships and deal with living chronic pain.
Remember numerous of your friends warned you about him. Please listen to them. A leopard doesn't change his spots. They are on the outside looking in. They can see things more clearly. I know you can't turn off your feelings, but remember that Aaron isn't the victim here, you are. He's the one that caused your pain by disrespecting you, lying to you, cheating on you. 10,000 didn't unsub to him because of Nora. It was because we're tired of him verbally abusing and disrespecting his wife, girlfriends and friends. It's a pattern. We don't want his demise. We want him to stop hurting the ex-Scientology members we've all come to love, care for, support, and admire over many years. Then see his ego blame everyone else.
Remember you put your video up so you wouldn't go back to him because if you didn't put it up then you would go back to him. Listen to these gut instincts you said. You were right. You're not the only one who has been in this cycle. It's ok the love and care for others from a distance, or setting boundaries or staying friends. Please continue to listen to your friends, except for the friends that told you you can get through it if you love him enough you can work through it. Screaming, manipulating, fighting a lot, gaslighting, lying and cheating isn't love.
I'm very worried about you. I care for you and admire you very much. You have inspired so many people and helped many people break the cycle of different abusive situations they were in. I am still here to support you. I will continue to keep you in my prayers ❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

It doesn't matter if the relationship seemed 99% perfect. If someone is unfaithful (especially repeatedly) then the relationship is a bad one. There isn't an excuse for infidelity. You break up before you move on.

We support you. You did nothing wrong and I hope you can escape the vicious cycle of abuse. You deserve so much more. He knows you are vulnerable and he is manipulating you. I recommend the book Why Does He Do That by Lundy Bancroft. Having a partner yell and scream at you is ABUSE. Cheating is ABUSE.

Sweetheart, there is NO ROOM for those “bad things” EVER in a HEALTHY relationship. Just because we love somebody doesn’t mean it’s going to work out. I know that seems counterintuitive, but it’s true. You have to wrap your head around that fact. Abuse is abuse and love doesn’t behave like that. PERIOD. I know it’s cliché but love IS kind. Love IS patient. Love IS caring. Love is NOT screaming. Love is NOT cheating. Love is NOT demeaning. THAT’S NOT LOVE.

Jenna you continue to be a wonderful example of a human. I found nothing wrong with your prior videos, but clearly they had unintended consequences and you did what you felt you needed to do. You are so kind!! Sad people turned your raw emotional videos into lies... sometimes things arent so black and white... clearly you were done wrong, noone deserves to be cheated on. Instead of using that hurt as a reason to hurt... you choose healing and compassion. You can be hurt, and be mad, and still break that hurting who hurt you cycle. Though your original videos didnt come across as trying to hurt anyone. Wishing you and your kids feel better and better days in your future!

Hi precious Jenna. Been praying for you steadily. Love you! This is so brave and honorable of you. Very wonderful to hear this, it’s hard not to lash out. You are so mature. Thank you for sharing this. I love you dear.
You will learn something from this experience, as hard and debilitating as this is.
No apologies for the trolls. That is in them.
Take care of you, dear, sweet, wonderful, kind Jenna.
My apologies to you for the name calling i did. That didn’t help you and i hope you can forgive me. As can he.

Thanks Jenna! here for you and for your journey whatever that may look like. I was at Int Base at Gold from 1988 to 1991, we need non-judgemental support of one another and resist the temptation to divide or take sides... exactly what OSA wants us to do. You are allowed to decide what your boundaries are in any relationship you are in and state clearly what is and is not allowed and then stand on that to protect your health and peace and that does NOT mean that you don't care for the other person or wish any ill will either... so hard for most to understand these days. :virtualhug:

@mrsblondebeauty27:
Oh Jenna. My heart breaks for you. Please don’t be one of the statistics—the woman who stays with an abuser to her own detriment. Emotional abuse can lead to the death of your figurative self. “Killing me softly with his words…” There is no excuse for his treatment of you. No excuse. And y’all are not even married! Get out while you still can for your sake and the sake of your children. (You are the point of reference for your children when it comes to their future romantic relationships. Would you be okay if your child was treated in this manner by a partner?) I’m sure you’re experiencing the honeymoon phase of abuse right now where he is offering apologies and showing you extreme kindness. This is short-lived. Please, please wake-up. Your mental health and wellbeing isn’t worth his time.

Completely agree. This video is heartbreaking. Hearing her descriptions in the other videos, hearing the emotion in her voice...and now this...I would recognize that anywhere 💔 This is a frightening turn. My abuser's name was also Aaron and this all makes me so sick. I hope beyond hope Jenna can stay safe and see clearly what's in front of her. The comments have given me a lot of hope...and a lot of sadness.

This video was unnecessary. You don't owe us or anyone an explanation of why you took the videos down. This is your personal life. You have your own reasons, and we should respect that. To the people saying she did this to appease a narcissist, get off your judgment couch, and get a life. This is a YouTube channel. There is a lot to Jenna's life that we know nothing about. I hope you feel better soon, Jenna. Being sick sucks.

@taismoke:
Please, never come back to him! As a person, who survived relationships with abusive and manipulative partner several years ago, I want to reassure you that you deserve so much better. It is absolutely possible to have relationships in which your partner is never rude or violent to you, in which you both respect and support each other every day. It is not “too much to ask”. You did the right thing by leaving and making that video.

I saw your other videos, and all I will say is you are the expert in you. If you are at a place where you want to forgive and move forward, that is great. Embrace it and move forward. Regardless of what other people think, or if they're predictions are true or not, only you are living your life. You only get one, pull yourself out of negativity and sadness, use any means possible to do so. I think things will go well for you this year, good luck.

It actually makes sense you decided to take down your videos. They were very personal and private and captured a moment in time.
Hopefully, they’re not deleted because it’s important to remember what happened when you trusted Aaron and how vulnerable you were.
It’s okay to hope for change and better behavior from people we care about.
Watch out for what I like to call “the dance” where old behaviors on both sides start to slowly repeat.
If you decide to reconnect with Aaron, please watch out for familiar patterns and know it takes a lot more than an apology to actually make a real change.
2025/01/15
@ConfusedHarpSeal-no1is:
OMG ! Please don't go back to his clutches! Whatever seemlingy honest and sincere things he said can not be trusted! Its like the parable of the snake who promised he wouldn't bite - not possible because he's a snake. You deserve someone who is honest, sincere, loving, and has true morals and ethics. This man has a many years long history of deception, coercion, and manipulation. He cannot instantly morph into an honest loving monogamous relationship. You have a beautiful heart - please don't give it away to someone who will not cherish it. You deserve a joyous 2-way relationship. The greatest inimacy is between 2 people. When one partner shares that intimacy with more than one person, that intimacy is greatly decreased and tarnished. IMHO.❤

This cult has done such harm to those under its control, especially to its youngest; the ones born in or the ones brought there by parents. I appreciate Jenna’s explanation for the removed videos. I understand why they were made, and I also understand why they should be privatized. However, keep them. They are important. Part of continued growth and reabsorption into reality where yes there is pain, but there is also joy.

@laurieg673:
You had time to gaslight yourself. The heartfelt apology had you accepting the "good" in the relationship was real. In reality, the good was the lie. You experienced narcissistic abuse and you are rationalizing, minimizing, and accepting his abuse as being the exception and not who he really is. Please get counseling with an experienced narcissistic abuse therapist.
2025/01/15
@roxanne2064:
nooooooo jenna 😞 you WERE right - HE IS TOXIC. you have so clearly never lacked empathy, especially for those you love, which is why he's able to use it against you so effectively.
please know that his experience of "empathy" is not the same as yours tho. whereas it's something that's ever-present for you, he truly can (and will) turn it on & off like a faucet to achieve his ends. that's why it can feel so real one moment & then seemingly vanish the next.
idc if you ever put those vids back up, but please consider taking this one down, too. it lets him off wayyy too easy & it puts wayyy too much of the blame on you. also please read It's Not You by Dr. Ramani.

My ex used to convince me to think of the good times. So much so that it took me seven years of mental and emotional trauma and abuse to leave. The good Times are never as good as the horrible times are horrible. Please do not believe his apology. He does not mean it. He is manipulating you so that more people do not see what a POS he is. From what I have heard he he’s lost over 10,000 subscribers and that is the reason he is apologizing to you. He hung up on you and refused to talk until he could figure out how to manipulate you into taking some responsibility. Please don’t go back. Don’t allow your self to feel sorry for him he doesn’t deserve it. Women of the internet need to know what he is so that he cannot hurt others the way he hurt you. Please take care of yourself. Let the anger and pain fuel you to remain away from him.

@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
🎯 Well said. Also, when in a relationship like that, things don't get better, even though you try so hard. You just get more traumatized and beaten down.

@daniellegasper2289:
There is a cycle to domestic violence. First an abuser will love bomb you and make you think he is the best guy in the world. Then the tension builds and you are walking on egg shells to keep him happy. Then there is some type of aggression (cheating is a type of aggression/abuse). Then he goes back to the love bombing. Victims tend to think that the love-bombing stage is a glimpse into his “good side”. It is not. It is only a manipulation to get what he wants. ALL of the things he does is a manipulation.
A victim goes back to their abuser 5 to 7 times before they leave for good. I hope you don’t have to go around that mountain too many times before understanding who he truly is.

The good times do not invalidate the bad but the reverse is also true in that the bad times do not invalidate the good. That being said there are different levels of bad times and some can be tolerated while others can not and it's up to you on where that line is. Honesty and good (healthy) communication at the onset regarding goals and values so that you know you are walking side by side on the same pathway of the relationship is key.
I hope you and your kids are feeling better soon. Rest and Recharge.

Once you know the pattern you can’t unsee it .. I’m a licensed psychotherapist in the field almost 40 years The predictable pattern if your on YouTube or whatever platform your using is take the videos down , go away for a while. Come back on YouTube , be gaslit , make excuses for the abuser and condone their behavior , unfortunately they can be very charming and deceitful but I think you’ll eventually get it…
Like someone else in the comment section mention it usually takes about 7 full cycles 🔁 of this I’m also a Christian and I understand trauma Bond, but I also understand it’s a demonic trauma bond .. narcissists get assistance from dark entities.. unfortunately

To a woman who is sitting there taking on the blame after an apology from an abusive partner who is not sorry for anything he’s done but is worried about this affecting his ability to make money. And you fell for it. Get ready for things to get really bad now Jenna. You’ve just basically told him you can treat me as bad as you want to & I will not only take it but I will defend you & shoulder the blame. I will not be sticking around to see how far you fall.

He was not genuine in his apology, it is all self serving.. I used to believe these people, too.. btw, it's called reactive abuse.. narcs make us react. I respect your decision though, but had to spill some truths. He got you with his pity plays.. HG Tudor explains it well.. you should learn about narc abuse, it is very relevant to your life and what you have been through "Thank you for your temporary support"---sounds passive aggressive. Why add temporary.

@tray4978:
Jenna, please listen. I don't even know him that much. Have hardly watched him. So, were im coming from isn't because I was a subscriber to him. I've come from a very bad abusive relationship. So, bad that the state I live in changed a particular law due to something my abuser did to me. I heard you mention several times that there was so much love in your relationship together. Maybe for you, but abusers van not truly love the other person they hurt. Love doesn't hurt! This man was cheating on you before you were even back home in your home state. Think about that, please! He isnt the victim here you are! Yes, he has kids, but they are grown. If he doesn't want someone speaking up on his actions than he needs to stop abusing others. Him growing up in that cult doesn't give him a right to abuse. Please rethink this through. You have a lot of people that care for you. He is a manupulater, and only cares for himself.

I don't think he did it to hurt you either. Impulse control is different from not loving someone.
After hearing both sides, this whole thing made sense to me. I was worried you guys were too far apart to ever see the other persons point of view, actually.
It killed me to see you guys hurting like that...
None of us are perfect. I've made really bad choices in my life. I'm not sure I'd be the person I am today if other weren't able to forgive me and give me some space to grow.
Obviously, that requires us as individuals to actually make changes as well... but doing so is possible under the right circumstances.

The way I see it, you have no reason to apologise to anyone. You’re doing what you need to do. Take your time. You’re also very insightful. I believe you’re lovely inside and out but I like that you’re feisty too.

@JWat73:
You do not need to defend how you feel. Aaron doesn’t deserve you giving an explanation after the cheating he did to you. We all understand how you felt. It disappoints me that he’s gotten to you and your now doing this video

It was one sided love. He is not capable. And he chooses not to get help to heal. You are so sweet to care and try to validate his actions. I hope your hurt will be over soon. And that you see his true character. One day you will be so thankful he so out do your life. I have no doubt he will hurt others especially women.

@Honeybee48012:
Every woman who has ever been an abusive relationship says exactly what you’re saying right now unfortunately you have not learned that it’s not your fault. You’re still thinking you’ve done something wrong when you haven’t I think all women should support each other, but I don’t think you realize that you are in an abusive relationship. It doesn’t have to be physical to be abusive. 2:54 I only made it this far in your video and I cannot watch anymore. I’m sorry you have to figure it out for yourself. Hopefully, you’ll figure it out before anything worse happens. I truly wish you the best of luck because you deserve it.

@sherrythomas3028:
I've been watching this from a far. Hun, he's already showed you who he really is. He obviously got back in there and manipulated your feelings. You are not responsible for the backlash he gets. It's to late for him to try and put the crap back in the horse.

@AllisonMetcalfPalumbo:
I completely get where you're coming from, Jenna, and while all relationships have ups and downs, and even if both parties are guilty of "yelling", you didn't cheat, he did. He can say "we weren't exclusive" but what I saw - what I'm pretty sure we ALL saw - was a couple, not a "hook up". And the fact that he cheated with the person that caused massive upheaval in his life, privately and publicly - combined with his unwillingness to admit that you WERE a couple points strongly to the fact that he needs help. He is not emotionally well. I am sad that you feel the need to defend him, when he has demostrated numerous times, sadly, that he can defend himself. You are too good for him, IMO. Please understand, I don't hate the man by any stretch. I pity him for being so terribly prone to self sabotage. And his super self focused reaction to this situation is the type of behavior from which I try to distance myself if at all possible, because that is the type of person who will drag you down with them. IMO, of couse. YMMV.

@Bota29ayo:
Jenna just know if you left them up you were so in your right to do so❤ any repercussion that came of it was only the fault of the person who hurt you, your feelings will always be valid with us 🫶🏻

@Bota29ayo:
And even if no insults, you are allowed to say no yelling as a boundary. Anything that makes you uncomfortable you can say no to! You truly deserve all the kindness a partner could offer, Jenna! Have you seen how hard Spencer Pratt is going to show his wife support on TikTok? You deserve to be treated like that too!
2025/01/15
@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
He is heavy in the V of DARVO right now. He is NOT the victim. He is the abuser working hard to convince you that he is the victim. He is very good at it. He's had a lifetime to perfect his manipulations and will be very believable. Please don't be an apologist for his abusive behavior. His patterns are predictable and are not avoidable as long as he is in your life. Go no contact and learn to love yourself enough to know that you do not deserve any of what you have been through this last year.

@adp6694:
Please don't let him manipulate you into believing this is your fault. You have valid feelings. He hurt you! It doesn't matter what his background is. Don't let him blame his cheating on that. Maybe the first time he did it with his wife, but this is a pattern he does with every woman. Making you hurt makes him feel better. I know that's hard to say but he is a sex addict. My ex was an alcoholic. Somehow, I was blamed for him drinking when I wasn't even out with him, and he drank before I ever met him.

People who choose infidelity tend to compartmentalize their relationships, so you are likely right in saying it wasn't to hurt you directly.

2025/01/15
@dognerd7280:
Jenna, you were not wrong to post those videos. I do worry that this one has been coerced in some form or fashion though. This has all the hallmarks of a flipping hostage video. Seriously, it’s not your responsibility to fix things for Aaron. Him giving you an apology out of desperation is not sincere apology. I think Nora is over the top with her focus on him, but she’s not wrong. Why is his wellbeing more important than yours, because that’s essentially what you just said.
2025/01/15
@ek3197:

@CraftyComeLately:
Please don't think you have to try to work it out unless he goes to in patient rehab or he gives you full access to his phones, accounts devices to TRY to earn your trust. The cheating is half. The other half is how he talked to you in anger or didn't respect your time and travels to see him.

One of the first steps I took after my divorce from my 15 year marriage was finding a book about boundaries. The next book was about narcissism.

2025/01/15
@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
He will work very hard to make you feel bad about yourself, however he can. He is clearly blaming other creator's videos about him on YOU. He has no one to blame but HIMSELF. You deserve compassion, love, and kindness... not screaming, guilt, and trauma which is what ASL has to offer. Go no contact and get your power back. You will feel so much better.

I feel bad that you are a typical abused woman. There are reasons A-Aron isn’t on the board any longer, or that Leah R doesn’t have contact with him. I’m not a former scientologist either.

@DespiteTheLookOnMyFace:
You are an impressive woman. I’m sorry people are being critical as you unpack your feelings, history, and try to move forward. I understand where they are coming from, but I also understand where you are coming from too. The truth is that it’s complicated!! I think it’s healthy to want to be the “bigger person” and reflect on one’s one actions and take ownership of them. Empathy and self-reflection are so important —-but so are boundaries. So that will be something you’ll have to be mindful of. Just keep moving forward doing what feels right in your soul, strive for balance, and with an eye to be the kind of woman you want to be and it’ll all sort itself out.

@thescrappay:
You told the truth, how can that be wrong? Actions speak louder than words, and he has already shown you who he is through his actions. Leaving an abusive partner is a process, and it can take many times, many hard lessons, to accept the truth and let go of what you thought was real love. We will continue to support you through your journey, please protect your body, mind, and heart moving forward. Please speak with a therapist and make sure you have community around you that knows what is happening and is ready to support you. You have nothing to be ashamed of, you did nothing wrong, his awful choices are in no way a reflection on you as a person or romantic partner. Emphasis on the word CHOICES. He CHOSE to do this to you and to your relationship. He did not "make a mistake". You are worth more than this. I really hope you see that some day. 💗
2025/01/15
@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
Please remember that YOU did not start this. HE DID. His cheating, screaming, and abuse is being reported by so many people. You are not responsible for his income. I'm sure he's putting the heavy guilt trip on you when HE is responsible for his cheating and abuse. He even cheated by purchasing subs, which we all saw in realtime. He's just a cheater, period. He is NOT a good person. Don't fall for the lovebombing. Don't let him guilt you. Manipulation is his game. Remember what he said when you asked him why he didn't tell you that he cheated.... "Why would I???" The true ASL came out at that moment. Remember that. Things will NOT get better as long as he stays in your life in any way.

Jenna you’re a Bambi, it’s very obvious you are a really genuinely nice empathetic & compassionate person. When ppl are born into a cult they get programmed that’s it’s not ok to advocate for urself. I haven’t done anything wrong, just have faith in urself and your chat when we tell you, that when a person hits breaking point from being abused sometimes we might lash out and it is warranted to raise our voice and advocate for ourself. I’m not sure why anyone is criticising you, you have had a really hard life. I’m so happy u have a wonderful ex husband u can be so friendly with. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

2025/01/15
@superanxietychick7035:
Oh Jenna, as someone who has been where you are now, I understand this all too well. Your compassion etc is admirable, but it's being used against you. He only apologized after he lost subscribers, what was his response to you before that? When you made your video? That was his way of saying that he doesn't respect you or care about you. His cheating, yelling, ignoring, gaslighting you is him telling you the same thing.
You'll see it when you're ready to see it, but please reflect on this in a healthy manner.

@sharonhatt9399:

@LorraineinPNW:
Jenna...I've been concerned that you took him back. I took back my abuser and it got so much worse the 2nd time. Think of all the people that he's pooped on.

As an adult in my 50’s, I am still working on the triggers from that. I am a survivor, so are you. Give yourself grace as you go through this. And hoping you and your kiddos feel better soon. Sending you hugs!

@ELLOGANT:
He is behaving like a serial abuser. Apologies and tears are all show for him. It is all fake. He has conned you. He is protecting only himself, his channel and his pocket. I feel badly that he has managed to manipulate you; scientology taught him well in the ability to manipulate. You have done nothing wrong. You deserve better than someone like him. I have been there. I know how it feels. Take care of yourself.

@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
Jenna, Having been there, I'm sure that you are thinking that we all just don't understand, that we are misunderstanding ASL and he really isn't that bad. That is part of the narcissistic abuse cycle. He will be VERY GOOD at lovebombing you, making you feel guilty, etc. He's probably going to blame you for the hundreds of comments here that are supporting you and hoping you get away from him. Don't forget, you are not the only person that has spoken out about him. He's abusive to virtually everyone, eventually.

@HappyBlessedandLoved:
No reason to apologize. We are all messy.
2025/01/15
@ariannewdnotbe:
Speaking as someone who was also in an abusive relationship, his apology means nothing. He will do it again, if not to you if you let him back in, but to the next woman. He knows how to manipulate you & is trying to reclaim the upper hand & keep his business going.

@HappyBlessedandLoved:
Though people do feel a connection when they see other women upset, when it comes right down to it, it is none of our business how you process this situation.
As someone who has been fully destroyed by narcissistic abuse, please consider if this may apply to your life. I am wishing you everything wonderful in your life.
The cycle of narcissistic abuse typically consists of three distinct phases: idealization (love bombing), devaluation, and discard; where the narcissist initially showers their partner with affection and attention, then begins to criticize and belittle them, and finally discards them, often leaving the victim feeling confused and emotionally drained, potentially leading them back into the cycle to seek the initial positive attention again.

@momoftwo306:
You did nothing wrong. He's mad he got called out on things he wanted to keep secret, so no one would see who he really was. Cheating isn't a mistake or a reaction or a trauma response.

This "boyfriend" is a liar, cheater, and a narcissist.

@suziex4190:
Please love yourself enough to stay clear of a proven CHEATER and ABUSER, and love your children enough to NOT showing them how to be loyal to a CHEATER. Even if the videos remain gone, we cannot unsee what we've seen. That was REAL. Don't confuse narcissist "apologies" with an actual healthy relationship. Please don't cover for a cheating abusive guy who guilt-trips you and blames you for the consequences of his own unscrupulous behavior.
2025/01/15
@chlosies:
Jenna. Nooo, relationships aren't about weighing up the good and bad, when the bad is abuse! Its called hoovering, bread crumbing, future faking, basically priming you for another cycle of abuse. We have all seen his anger and crocodile tears and BS apology. I get that you would take down a video because causing a narcissist ego wound is dangerous.

Does anyone here think that Jenna is perfect? Nope. That does not mean you're even a little at fault for what transpired in the relationship. I highly suggest reading as much as you can about narcissistic abuse. I kept going back to my ex for 2yrs, thinking of the good times. What he did to you is not ok. You do not deserve it, not even for a second. He will continue to abuse and continue to cheat. Please keep taking care of yourself.

This is really sad to watch. I hope you read all of these comments. I have been in a similar position, so what you are saying is quite familiar to me and not in a good way... please do not apologise for anything. You are blaming yourself for many things you have absolutely no blame for, and my heart aches hearing it. People like this will treat you a lot nicer when you try to leave them, then once you're back they will do the same awful things again, it's a cycle. Please stand up for yourself and do not let anyone silence you. ❤🩹

@FlowerChild65:
Jenna, you can't love him into wholeness. You can't be enough for him to be better because you are not the cause of his poor behaviour. Yes, there may have been beautiful times. There may have been context to the yelling. Yes, he has trauma and a difficult past as you do. But explanations for his behaviour are not justifications. Just because you can empathize with why got to be where he is, does not mean it's ok.

Jenna this channel is yours, if followers on your own channel choose to ridicule you , then announce they are leaving because you are not saying what THEY want to hear unfortunately are only here for their own narcissistic agenda.

I had a feeling this situation would go this way. Clearly none of us in the comments know what went on between you two but even knowing little to nothing, we know this relationship is not right for you if being with him did not make you feel like the best version of yourself. It’s a simple question to ask yourself in any relationship. Do I feel like a great version of myself with my partner? I do not think you did with Aaron.

I am sorry about your relationship. Years ago you would write a letter, read it over, and maybe even decide not to send it…You may rewrite it. The new way is to respond too quickly.

@Kshees:
You are making excuses for him and you don’t need to. He is a chronic cheater and was unfaithful to his wife and to you, plus others. He apologized because he was getting abused online. Now he is putting up videos about him respecting Mike Rinder and rewriting history about what he said about him. He doesn’t know what a healthy relationship is, he’s never been in one. You need to stay away from him. He’s a grown ass man, he needs to act like one.
2025/01/15
@priscillajagger5049:
I take it you and Aaron got back together. Like someone else pointed out you will end it when you’re ready. On average it takes a DV victim 16 times to actually leave their abusers. Good luck in the future and try to remember a leopard cant change its spots.

@Kind2Every1:
I'm going to pass on the advice that was given to me when I was in a situation very similar to yours. I kept going back no matter what he did I had that hope in my heart that I was wrong and I believed him when he said he wouldn't do it again. This went on for years and I wouldn't listen to anyone around me. Even my mother looking back on it said to me there was nothing we could have told you you had to find out for yourself. I do wish I had listened to my friends and family that said if someone shows you who they are listen the first time. We were divorced for many many years and after all of these years he decided to pop back up in my life very apologetic very sincere sounding that he had made a mistake and I was the love of his life. Only for it to disintegrate again into the same behavior but this time since I had seen it before I knew what it was. I was no longer letting him convince me that I was at fault, that I was mistaken in what he said, that I misunderstood... He had shown me what and who he was. When I divorced him the first time. I should have listened and kind of the summarize this you just have to follow your own heart but let your head in there some. Sorry for the long post.

" ......careless with your emotions, and I truly apologise for this". Jenna, these are your words, which you said to 'us'!! I implore you...PLEASE be careful with your own emotions!. I've met a few Mr. Destructives, and I feel you are in that camp too, ASL being the most recent. PLEASE believe the person he has shown himself to be IS REALLY WHO HE IS. Don't be shrouded over isolated incidents that 'were good'....they can be repeated with a new man, close friends. It's not how someone treats you in the good times that matters....the REAL character of a person is revealed by what they do when no-one else is watching, and for me, A's actions at your crying question of " were you every gonna telling me?"......"No. Why would I?" followed by a hang up!!!!!! Jenna, would you tell your best friend "yeah, this guy seems awesome, lucky you!" Or, would it be " Run an effing mile, you should not settle for that. I'm not supporting trashing ASL, and I've followed him since he had 17-60 thousand subscribers. He does great things here, BUT relationships are NOT one of them, and when it's you.....the claws come out!!! 6:51 Protect your heart and sanity, cause these events should have proven to you that your partner is NOT going too. With my whole heart, I wish you strength, happiness, and clearly seeing the truth when it is shown to you. I hope you're all feeling much better soon. Lots of Love to you.

Jenna you’re a Bambi, it’s very obvious you are a really genuinely nice empathetic & compassionate person. When ppl are born into a cult they get programmed that’s it’s not ok to advocate for urself. I haven’t done anything wrong, just have faith in urself and your chat when we tell you, that when a person hits breaking point from being abused sometimes we might lash out and it is warranted to raise our voice and advocate for ourself. I’m not sure why anyone is criticising you, you have had a really hard life. I’m so happy u have a wonderful ex husband u can be so friendly with. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

@brookejackson2557:
I understand your position- People’s traumas do in fact influence their behavior- life long. That’s not to say theirs zero hope for that person but just to reiterate that life is a journey and we’re all at different places along our personally. Just because someone is still struggling with their own, and have seriously done you wrong doesn’t mean you automatically stop caring or loving that person. YES- new boundaries and safeguards for you are necessary- but holding onto that hate and constant negativity only serves to hold you back and impede your own growth. Especially with having first hand knowledge of the trauma that person has gone through. Empathy and forgiveness are never wrong - I trust you know yourself enough to still love and forgive while learning from that experience and taking the positive with you to further and enrich your own journey. I think you taking this stance is brave mostly BECAUSE it’s the unpopular move that can make you look like a pushover.
If people have truly heard your story and watched your content that 👆🏻nonsense couldn’t be farther than the truth. ❤❤❤
2025/01/15
@brookejackson2557:
Just too add- I’m not sure where anyone is getting that you’re automatically back in that relationship or want to be. Saying you forgive someone doesn’t mean things are back to “as they were”.

There’s many people out there that didn’t have parents, got abused etc etc but don’t cheat and hurt people. He’s not ok….what he did wasn’t an oopsie. He did it intentionally and didn’t care how it would effect you until it effected his subs and money. He only apologized when thousands of people called him out, not when you were hurt the first time as a matter of fact didnt he say why would he even tell you?. He didn’t care….and still doesn’t. He only cares about his YouTube channel and trying to get back on ur good side.

Dear Jenna, it sounds like the right the to do. I wish for healing, kindness, and peace for everyone involved. Continue on your journey of growth. In selecting a mate take the approach that banks and lenders take: the past conduct predicts your future. Your credit score CAN be rehabilitated but don't ignore the credit history. Every married man who is getting cozy w someone other than his wife is "unhappy". It is not to be assumed it is the wife's fault altho it is not impossible. But why not get a guy with a great track record? ( Some things are ok to put to private and I support yr decision. After i saw the video a while ago of you with him in a bar .... I realized he had not quite reached his full potential yet, that he was not ready, i felt bad for him and couldn't watch his videos after that. He is an engaging speaker but getting that glimpse... he was not ready.) Don't read the comments bc sometimes people just miss that that they're kinda out for blood.

Don’t over think this. That’s your Scientology sneaky in. Aaron is what he is good with the bad. You were not wrong probably way too honest for most people. You took it where you needed to take it for your soul. Consider if this happened to your best friend or even your grown up daughter. That’s the prospective you might come from to see this from the outside world. Because a persons answer for someone they love is different from how we allow ourselves to be treated. This not an example of a good man to hold up for your children. Now I like Aaron he’s one of the few shows I watch due to so many of the fact that does not cuss as much as the others. He has that personality that pulls a person in which is why he’s successful. Would I want lots of Aaron’s in this space NO They can be only one lol. I watch your videos because your calm and give good content. Don’t change Don’t be a doormat. You can’t change the fact that you have abandonment issues from your childhood.

I feel so bad that you want to soften the blow for him. His actions of unfaithfulness are horrible. There are consequences for your actions and he is a grown ass man who knows full well what he did and that it was wrong and would be devastating to you and yet he did it anyway. He filled his own lustful heart with himself and what he wanted. It’s your personal life and you also have to live with your own consequences. Do what you feel is best for you, by all means. All of us here supporting you are only angry because you are such a sweet, wonderful, hurt woman and we want to kick him in the nuts. This has nothing to do with his livelihood or how great his work is. He’s awesome at what he does. What he is horrific at is loving a woman and that’s why we are so upset and want the best for you. If you decide down the road to forgive him or see him again, that’s your decision. I just hope you will love yourself first and always. ❤

Oh Jenna, I must say I am so so worried for you. I was in a relationship with someone like Aaron for 7 years and even though I have been out of the relationship for almost 5 years I am still healing to this day from the trauma he left me with. But, for some reason, I still find myself remembering the good times and overlooking the bad ones and sometimes still thinking maybe it was my fault. And that's all I could see in this video... I don't wish anything bad on my ex (nor Aaron) but please, please honey do not ever go back. I went back so many times I lost count, they know how to play with our heads, don't fall for it. So much love to you ❤

Well he obviously laid a guilt trip on Jenna, knowing full well she would accept part of the blame. He’s like a cat … and will always land back on his feet. As long as she stays away from him, she will be fine. Otherwise he will start getting into her head and before you know it, she will be apologizing to him.

@gr8lsnr:
Jenna, first..you're perfect just the way you are.😀. I do remember one thing you said on your video..something about making that video so you would not forget how it made you feel. By taking down those 2 videos I was able to see the Pandoras' Box you opened. I soon saw how many people have YouTube videos made only to comment as so-called insiders to your social circle. Hmmm...they didn't express their own feelings; they weren't there!
2025/01/15
@L.K.Rydens:
Jenna, regardless of what happened out of our sight, I would tell you this: set up boundaries and trust your gut. In abusive relationships and/or cults, it's our lack of boundaries and ignoring the stabbing feeling of "This doesn't feel right" that makes us vulnerable. Listening to that feeling and keeping your boundaries will protect you from both of those. Also look into attachment styles, I think that would help you a lot ❤ and you are empathetic and you were then too. If you look at your video, you actually show tons of empathy ❤ don't ever forget how wmazing you are ❤
2025/01/15
@PopFizzPaperDani:
If he was sorry, he wouldn’t have hurt you in the first place. There would be nothing to apologize for. We don’t intentionally hurt people we actually love. I thought the whole point of your videos was to help yourself remember that? I hope you find your worth sooner than later because you deserve better.❤

@scaramanga8:
i mean this with full respect: as someone who was in a relationship with a narcissist i said the same thing. they manipulate you into feeling bad for them. the person sees how empathetic you are and fully uses that to their advantage. they will say/do ANYTHING to “win” you over once again if they feel like they are “losing” something (aka viewers). this video breaks my heart, because i believe that’s exactly what he is doing with you. it’s so difficult to see otherwise, especially when it’s so fresh. i hope you do for your own sake/mental health. you have so many people that support you and want to see you leave this abusive cycle.

@idiotmonkey12:
You need therapy for abuse. You left a cult and are right back in another cult like relationship. You don't understand this because, you're in a cult. You need to get a therapist far removed from all of this, I'm talking West Coast vs East Coast. You owe it to your children to show them what a strong woman does. They don't go back to toxicity.

10 years ago I was in this situation with a smooth talking narcissist and I'm so torn. on one hand I'm having compassion knowing you will know when enough is enough and you don't want to live this way anymore and that nothing we say will hasten that, only cause you distress. on the other I want to scream. he made a play and he got what he wanted. you win this round, Aaron. enjoy it while it lasts.

An empathy factor of zero is what is required to remove oneself from the manipulation of a liar. Please don't take responsibility for his actions and how he treated you. You didn't deserve it. He knew it would hurt you and did it anyways. More than once.

@bernadettestrickland7877:
It's extremely sad to see you make ths video! The two previous videos you made were so valuable to many people. I'm really sad to see you've been gaslit by ASL in to thinking It's your fault & that he actually gave you a heartfelt apology! I guarantee that didn't happen. He desperately wanted you to take those videos down & was willing to say anything to get you to do it. Boy he is so manipulative! You're a beautiful soul & it's sickening to see him continue to use & abuse you. I hope one day you cn se it & heal. Like many people I hope one day he gets the professional help he needs so he stops doing this to people. Clearly he's learned nothing positive from what happened & is continuing to take zero responsibility. Hopefully, this video doesn't stay up too long. It usually takes 7 times to move on. Sending you love & hope

2025/01/15
@FUNKY_BUTTLOVIN:
Well, it makes sense... actually that's the wrong way to put it. Feelings don't make sense, especially when it's THIS situation and related. Abused women typically can't stop caring about the men who have hurt them.
Not to compare the two, but I remember a woman on TikTok who went there to air out how her husband had abused their little girl in the worst way, and she would get very upset and block people for commenting saying he deserves to be locked up for a long time... because in spite of her feelings of betrayal, disgust, furious anger, hurt and etc., she still couldn't help but love him, and she simultaneously hated the idea of him facing punishment from the courts, and the life-ending social implications of now and forever being known as a pdf file.
How she feels is normal. The thoughts though, I do hope she won't keep making excuses for him.
He is a predator, he preys on women and doesn't even seem to possess the depth to understand why it's bad or grasp why people care. He ruined so many good things and drove good people into hiding with lies and misrepresentations.
There are a couple schools of thought on human badness... one angle is, everybody does good and bad, and nobody is good or bad entirely.
But, if anyone is bad... if there is a line you can cross, where you're good up to here, and past this point, you are a bad person... he blew past that line, then turned around and sought to deeply wound everybody who witnessed it happen, then ran another mile.
He has done more badness than should simply be forgiven. And then he sought to ruin the people who tried to limit the extreme damage he was doing, all maliciously, which is beyond rotten.
Either he doesn't get it, suggesting he is something along the lines of a psychopath, just completely out of touch with universal human decency, or he knew what he was doing, and just didn't care, only cared about winning, only cared about himself, willing to ruin anybody and everybody to get the thing he wanted in that moment... which also, suggests he is something along the lines of a psychopath.
Jenna has got a lot of depth and kindness, but i think decent straight men and women, almost always tend to be TOO forgiving when it comes to gender-specific weaknesses and evils specific to the gender they're attracted to. Decent women will understand that men contend with aggression and drives towards sexual misconduct and, not experiencing these strong drives themselves, they don't get that decent men obsess over not letting these drives control them, and that men who do, are just bad people, period.
He is a ruiner, and he'll probably never be more than this, because the kinds of bad acts he does, are the kinds of things that the young and immature and ignorant, still understand are just entirely unacceptable.

Hi Jenna :-) Thank you for sharing your video, appreciated. Just to give you my 5 cents worth: Really appreciate yourself for what and who you are. Feel good about yourself and give yourself a pat on the back for being who you are plus each time you do something worthwhile, no matter how small. You may already be doing part or all that I have said. And if you are I suggest you strengthen it. Keep on truckin' kiddo 😊

Alcoholism and drug addiction isn’t done with any malice either, but it doesn’t mean you need to live with them. I know he’s not either of those things maybe.

@NotSoTimorousBeastie:
Im 100% here for the messiness, in whatever form it takes. I would say, that many of us that grew up as never ins within the community have known trauma, very up close and personally. Many grew up in less than ideal circumstances outside of a cult. In part thats why we're your audience, we empathise with your pain. We still know right from wrong though, we know when or if we hurt someone. We all make mistakes more often than we'd like to admit to, but theres a difference between making a mistake and knowingly doing something that no sane person would claim wouldnt hurt the people they love, like constantly lying, cheating, gaslighting and screaming at that person. Im sure you werent perfect because none of us are but you didnt repeatedly sleep with other people and lie about it whilst telling someone else you loved them.

Jenna you are allowed to feel how you feel and felt. It’s not ok even ONE time. The good time do not make up for that. Your mistakes and “faults” don’t justify someone else’s bad behavior or abuse.

It seems like you were gaslit into believing you were partly to blame on the collapse of the relationship & how your videos were causing harm. You cannot be taking any responsibility for that.

Always protect yourself. You will get better and better at spotting the holes in others souls and will be better able to discern what you can and want to live with. All the best to you.

Jenna, I hope all of what’s going on, doesn’t change your heart. You took the right decision in ending this relationship amd doing what you did ( post yr video forcing you to stay on track and not fall back into his arms) He apologized? Great. That’s what I expect from people that do wrong. Having said that, every time he wants to creep into your grace look at that first video. At this point it’s better for you to distance yourself from him and all of his friends. For your sake and that of your children. It takes time to heal. Give yourself that time.

@tinwhistle2k7 Agree. Once bitten, 14 times shy. The point is - " happiness and self-love". That is within you. No one else has domain over this - but yourself. You already know this - you just have to accept it. DO NOT - " invalidate your own legitimate feelings of betrayal ", as this man states. This past interaction just made you stronger as a independent person. The CoS indoctrination seems to still linger (what did YOU do). Never was - and no longer a factor. This man has some wise words - from the other side of the gender equation. Regardless - we are all just humans looking for (meaningful / devoted) love.

What he’s done to every woman he’s been with is absolutely disgusting. He lost 9,000+ subs due to your videos and panicked. That’s why he apologized.

2025/01/15
@buttlord-v4i:
@BuffyLynn he didn't just destroy channels... He destroyed The Aftermath Foundation itself, intentionally, and drove Mike Rinder and Leah Remini into hiding, because they dared to suggest he not prey on the vulnerable women coming them in times of crisis, desperate for help. I would die before ever lowering myself to those disgusting depths of behavior... I truly don't understand what life can possibly hold for someone who doesn't value anyone or anything, beyond his own base desires and hedonistic impulses. It's really disgusting and I feel ashamed for having been "on Aaron's side" in all of that.

Abuse is not OK, and an apology when exposure was hurting his bottom line does not make it OK. Get the hell away from him and stay away. Stop second guessing yourself. You deserve to feel safe.

After I told my family about my ex cheating on me- they said if I ever went back to him, they'd never bring my grandchildren around and I don't blame them. I'm glad I told EVERYONE so I'd never go back to him. It was a good call because he was already seeing another women from probably before we even broke up.

Listening to his word salad does nothing but confuse you and make you take responsibility for things that aren’t your fault.

It is not immature or mean to speak your own truth to take care of yourself where someone else has failed.

Cheating is sexual abuse- last I recall she didn’t give him consent to fuck up her PH balance like I love how cheaters think they can classify harmful behavior jeopardizing mental and physical/sexual health as a character flaw instead of what it really is. Tell someone who can’t have healthy relationships anymore because of cheaters that it’s not sexual abuse. To be vulnerable with someone who is manipulating you is traumatizing. If you wana polygamy say that then is 2025 the fuck!!

@ReeMcC87 whats also sick is how he has made her feel for putting up those videos. I could see how mad he was in his response that she posted them...that is why he was stressing he likes to keep things like that personal.......I bet he don't want people knowing they never do.

I was married to a narcissist for 37 years. You do need to get more distance from the relationship with Aaron. You need to remember that cheating IS NEVER OKAY, and making excuses for it is NEVER OKAY! Just make sure you take a breath and don’t discredit your own feelings and truth about what happened to you. God Bless Sister!

@kcltube3:
what happened before this video: he love bombed you, then used your shared trauma to bond with you and made you feel guilt and empathy (your coping mechanism) then you made this video. we all know the cycle if we've been abused before. so so sad that you are in this phase and i hope you get out of it. it's a cult of one, textbook the same as the scientologists did to you but in one man form. GET OUT.

@amandaf8870:
Aaron cannot give you what he doesn't have. He does not have the capacity to fully apologize. He has the capacity to get you to feel bad and stop "hurting" him. If you read these comments, especially from those who have lived this - myself included - there is no judgment for where you feel today, but you have to do work to understand who narcissists are. Narcissists are not evil - but they are who they are. And for those caring, loving, non-narcissists who get ensnared they are very dangerous. He simply is not playing on the same field you are. He is not seeing things the same. He is transactional. You are not. Please consider what we all are saying here. We are simply trying to save you heartache, confusion, and lost time with your kids as you navigate the craziness. If nothing else, Jenna, study narcissistic abuse and get away for them.
2025/01/15
@LottiesLore:
I am sad you are blaming yourself for everything that has followed after your videos, You did nothing wrong and do not need to apologise. Whoever you have been listening to does not have your best interest at heart.
Of course there were good times and it takes two people to fight, everyone knows that but the way Aaron conducted himself was not normal behavior. Someone or ones have got you to believe everything that has followed after you posted your truth is all your fault and that sickens me.
I wish you well.

@theprodigalsonreturnsoncea1199:
Predator personality types are expert at weaponising their target’s empathy against them. Listening to a target gaslight themself, minimise & disregard the abuse they have experienced & rationalise it away is how the predator personality types are able to continue to abuse their targets for the long term. People with excess empathy & no boundaries with who they empathise with are irresistible prey to dark personality types. My hope is that all abuse targets with indiscriminate empathy can sort themselves out and put a stop to participating in these abuse cycles, especially when they have children. Children require their parent to protect them from abusive predator personality types by being able to identify & ostracise predators with absolute prejudice, otherwise the children often learn that being abused by “loved ones” is what love looks like, which sets them up to repeat the same patterns and cycles. I am speaking from experience as someone who was had a narcissistic Mother & for many years was a magnet for abusive people until I learned what predatory personality types look like, what their abuse behaviour patterns are, how I my behaviours made me complicit in enabling abusers, and learning what I needed to do to change myself, my behaviours & heal the wounds. It’s quite empowering to develop one’s predator radar, & once a predator personality is verified, instantly & permanently eject these people from one’s life. All the best to the adult targets currently allowing predator types to prey on them.

Please stop letting him manipulate you. “Having a family that relies on him” does NOT give him a pass to abuse women. Did it ever occur to you that he apologized because you exposed him and did it to save face? He would’ve gladly kept abusing all sorts of women, and probably still will. Everyone that leaves Scientology needs therapy asap.

@SpiritualSidebar:
Jenna, I did the same thing with a ‘leader’ of a community. Every time I started to get truthful and own it publicly, I back tracked and protected ‘the relationship’ & ‘the man I love’. You are literally playing out classic behavior of a victim of narcissistic abuse. Your empathy factor was not zero in the videos. That said this PROCESS takes YEARS… years. I encourage you to find a holistic therapist to walk you through shadow work. Get a reiki master, I am one. Pull back for a few months. You have an army behind you when you’re ready. We understand you because WE ARE YOU

Jenna I hope you remember to have empathy for yourself through all of this. You didn’t do anything wrong in your other videos. You spoke your truth and had emotions. That’s ok. That’s not hurting someone else. No one deserves to be cheated on and especially for someone who already has abandonment issues it can leave you blaming yourself. And I hear you blaming yourself. You are worthy of love and respect and to be with someone who you can trust. I hope you know that.

@nikkomikko:
"What are the four types of enabling behavior? Enabling behavior includes covering up for the person's actions, providing financial support for their harmful behavior, neglecting your own needs to care for the person, and avoiding confronting the problem. It's important to recognize and address these behaviors to avoid conflict and promote healthy relationships."
You may be softening the blow for his family or for him, but enabling abusive behavior does more harm than good in the long run. I wish you strength as you navigate this difficult time.

@RosieDosey:
Jenna, please don't buy his apologies. He is a narcissist and this is their pattern. Just because he had an F'd up childhood, is not an excuse for cheating. I know so many people who have difficult childhoods and would never do what he did, which is cheat, and he cheated in a big way. Don't put yourself down. He was the abuser, not you! You are too kind, and that's what narcissists look for. God bless.

@lemonade4us3:
Hi Jenna! I’ve been in your shoes. After being hurt, then angry I started blaming myself for what went wrong in my relationship. I thought if I had been a better wife my husband wouldn't have screamed at me, thrown things at me, and cheated on me. What your saying today is normal in my opinion. Give yourself a few weeks and you will feel differently about yourself. You went into this relationship with a kind and loving heart. I don't think your partner did the same, in fact it seems he treated you the same way as he did his wife and other girlfriends. Speaking for myself, I choose to unsubscribe to Growing up in Scientology because I could no longer ignore the many abuses made against women by ASL. You are not influencing anyone and if ASL is concerned about financially supporting his daughters he should change his behaviors and go back to providing valuable information and stop fighting with people who are doing just that. Be kind to yourself and enjoy your life and kids. Time goes by really fast. ❤️

@AGTMOM:
Jenna- Aaron’s LONG-TERM actions will speak much louder than any apology. Remember that Aaron has a history of this behavior with ALL of his significant others. When you asked why he didn’t tell you about sleeping with other women, he replied “why would I?”. What he was really saying was , “why would I tell the truth if it doesn’t benefit me?”. At that moment, he did you a favor. He told you how he really thinks. This ethic is pervasive in all his actions!
Aaron is a bad friend and a worse boyfriend. If he cannot be consistently KIND and RESPECTFUL to you, please cut off all contact. This isn’t about Scientology or SPTV - this about protecting yourself and your precious children.
Sending warm thoughts.

The sad thing is Aaron is abusive in his romantic relationships. It's a bad example for his daughters. He needs to actively seek therapy and learn to change his behavior. The common denominator is Aaron. It's great to work on yourself, but please do not make excuses for Aaron's actions.

@AGTMOM:
@ if only Aaron was anything like MLK. He started this negativity train in the anti- COS movement when he started attacking Chris and Tony. That was born out of his need to be the most important person in the room. Maybe this comes from growing up in Scientology but you reap what you sow. I don’t care what he does with his body, I care when he mistreats and lies to others.
2025/01/15

@dramallamamama My point is simple. Focus on the work (bringing down the Scientology cult) The personal faults of the messenger does not matter. Focus on the message.
2025/01/15
@AGTMOM:
@ RIGHT! The message matters the most. The terrible messenger can just fade away. His negativity and misdeeds detract from the message. He is just a distraction-a rotten apple. If he goes away so will 95% of the in fighting. Look at all the people who defended Aaron when he left the Aftermath. Now he has injured most of them and there is infighting in the SPTV group! No fighting in The Aftermath group though…What does that tell you??
2025/01/15
@grimori:
@AGTMOM what lie has Aaron told about Scientology and their supporters? You guys are like the ones back in the 1960s who would pull MLK down because he cheated and you couldn't care less about the civil rights work.

Forgiveness is a wonderful thing because holding onto hurt and bad experiences is worse for you.

No matter how good the "good things" are, they don't make up for treating you badly. No amount of pressure on a relationship excuses how he treated you.

@91Mliii:
No one would join a cult/toxic relationship/toxic friendship if it was all bad all the time. We mistake the lovebombing for love - because no one has ever made us feel more loved. This is also a massive red flag 🚩 that we need to learn to recognize. Jenna, I would really like to recommend you Dr Ramani here on YT. The way to expose narcs behaviour is showing their red flags - doing so won't make that person popular as people need to face the reality from a new lens which can be scary.
People who has fallen victim to narcs behaviour and is finally speaking out will be painted out as the perpetrator when the narc behaviour is exposed. Because it can look like "hate" (when they are in fact hurt and exposing the truth) to people who aren't aware of the narcs behaviour. This is a very common reaction to narc abuse.
People will catch on to the truth as they start to listen to their own gut feeling in their own time. But it means shattering what they thought was the reality, and it's "better the devil we know".
Bad behaviour shouldn't be excused as a pass just because people sometimes are good too. You trusted your gut and spoke out, I truely hope you'll continue to listen to your gut over your heart and not let others opinions lead you wrong.

Remember it isn’t you that made you feel bad about your relationship!! Love is powerful and emotional and it’s the most beautiful feeling to have within yourself!! You are very much loved by so many people who support your channel!! I can see how much you’ve grown from this experience soon you’ll never have to think about it or speak about it!! You have the most beautiful soul Jenna the way you feel about his family is so special even though he doesn’t deserve it but yes it’s his family you’re speaking of and not him !

@ButFirstCoffeeSuzyOberholtz:
Jenna, please do not let anyone, including me tell you what to do or feel. Only you and Aaron know the full extent of your relationship. Only you two have a right to decide. Some people are handing out advice based on their experiences or their belief system. Most mean well. But some are here like wolf in sheep’s clothing. Do I wish you two had made it? 100% yes. Do I think you need to be together? I don’t know. THATS up to you both. It’s none of our place to say or judge. Do I believe people can change? Yes. I know they can, I have changed. Do they always change? Sadly no. Only the people involved know if it’s worth taking the risk. But that’s in any relationship. Thank you for the video. I don’t think it will help, and that’s not on you. That’s on the ugly acting people who used your pain for their gain. They will use this too. I don’t understand why YouTube allows the vicious bully mentality. It’s ugly. I support you no matter your future decisions. I also support Aaron as a valuable resource in the anti Scientology community. Sending love prayers and nothing but kind thoughts to you. You really are extraordinary.

@leoniep9231:
Please don't value his peaceful existence without consequences over your own peaceful and untroubled existence. Prioritize yourself and consider your own feelings first and foremost! He obviously does not consider your feelings, at least he has shown multiple times in the past that he does not care about hurting you.
He is not a victim in this situation, he is just surprised that he actually had consequences. It's not remorse, it's audacity on his part and he has become a good enough actor to promise you he'll change.
He knows you well and knows what to say to you so you'll cave. Especially since you have children together it's convenient for him to show you the known and uncomplicated route (no separation) and hope you'll take it even if you have to lie to yourself to be kind to him, as he knows you are kind and cannot help yourself empathizing with him. Don't fall for it, please - I and so many other commenters have been there. It's a pattern, he won't change, possibly he cannot change (without excusing his behavior - I mean at this point he is so used to it that it's become second nature to him).
Trust your initial gut reaction, you were absolutely correct about everything. Don't trivialize what he did because it's not trivial, and it's not the first nor the last time. How long until he inevitably hurts you again? You deserve happiness instead of hurt, you should never have to feel that again. And the good thing is that you don't have to feel like this ever again if you leave this relationship - it's in your own hands! You can actually decide that and not depend on his promises.
Also, the good parts don't make the bad parts of the relationship worthwhile if there is continuous and unchanging disrespect from his side regarding your feelings. The bad parts in their own are more than enough to leave.
Life without this constant manipulation and inconstancy is so worth it, but you cannot see it until you are there. You'll have to let go first, take a leap of faith and accept the uncertainty. It's terrifying, but it's so empowering coming out on the other side and realizing you pulled through. The feelings of misplaced guilt and inadequacy (if you have any) and the thought patterns about excusing and explaining away the a8use will fade away, too, as you are healing.
Please stay strong, trust in yourself. I am wishing you all the best.

@jojowynne233:
Hey Jenna. Firstly, I hope you and the kids feel better soon. I’ve listened to your book on Audible but I didn’t live your life nor Aaron’s. It breaks my heart that he cheated on you, I’ve been cheated on too so I know how much it hurts and the cycles of pain, anger, frustration, sadness, humiliation, hatred etc you go through. It’s a long process. Add to that two people that were brought up in a very abusive cult and none of us could even come close to comprehending your relationship with each other.
You just clarified that you both yelled but there was never any name calling etc and people are still calling it abuse for some strange reason. You got your apology for his cheating and you want to move on, you deserve to. ASL isn’t the only cheater on this earth. There are TV shows and YouTube channels dedicated to cheaters. It happens all the time. It shouldn’t. It’s definitely immoral and unfair behaviour. I personally hate it! It’s not abuse though as you so rightly pointed out.
Jenna, I also want to thank you for apologising to those that got caught in the crossfire. Rabbit never came out and addressed the situation, so because she didn’t she was bombarded with messages, emails of hate and threats for not doing it. Rabbit was finally pushed to hit back and she was in tears trying to say she wasn’t going to involve herself in it. Trolls flooded her livestreams and still continue to. I believed Rabbit did the right thing staying out of it because it was yours and Aaron’s personal business, not YouTube’s or YT’s content creators business.
Poe on the Go has now been hacked and facebook photos stolen and put on dating sites. Not sure if that’s related or not.
Jenna, I know this is a long post but I want to say I really admire your courage in coming back out and speaking your truth. We all have ups and downs and messy moments and that’s ok, you’re human, you’ve been through so much. I still think of you being in charge of all the vitamins and the dangerous potassium as a 6-7 yr old for all the kids on the farm. The narrator had such a childlike voice when telling that part of the book.
You can accomplish and overcome anything. You’re very brave and truly one of my Sheros! ❤

@rafalko_:
Jenna, we appreciate you trying to find your peace in this stressful situation, but from our perspective, this sounds very much like you are being restricted from your own honesty, and someone has coached you on “how to think about the situation“. I’m not gonna read between the lines for you, but this was probably the least reassuring response you could’ve made, and I mean that with the utmost concern for your personal well-being and emotional safety. Do not lower your own importance to cover for another person‘s very real and deliberate wrongs. That’s all I’m going to say, and I wish you nothing but happiness and personal independence and security.

You do not have 1 thing to apologize for. You do not have such power as to affect his livelihood to support his family. He has to blame for that. It’s been many instances of poor public behavior and treatment of others which has occurred over the last 2 years that has affected his decrease in the value of his words and his popularity. If he wants to make amends and focus on helping others than he can show that by his actions. If he is reading this I would say: get sober(or take a year long break), get clarity. Take accountability and responsibility, make reparations and change future behavior. Do it for your kids and nmkis!

He cheated, and not just a drunken “oops”. He maintained a relationship with more than one person who thought their relationship was exclusive. That is true narcissism. It’s not something he can just say “I won’t do it again”.

I disagree, not narcissism it's compulsion. Sexual preference is always compulsory, sexual behavior usually is too. Loyalty is avoiding temptation and removing yourself from it and he set himself up for it.
2025/01/15
@buttlord-v4i:
I wonder if he has ever been involved in any sxual relationship in his life that wasn't misconduct of one form or another. Be it cheating while in a committed relationship, sex tourism to a country famous for having rampant underage teenage prostitution, or preying on vulnerable women in crisis, who have come to the foundation desperate to get thrown a lifeline, only to be taken advantage of, drugged-up, and thrown away.
For a supposed heterosexual, he sure doesn't seem to love, or even like women, very much at all.
2025/01/15
@wldncrzy1971:
@ChonkyThetan it’s a narcissistic personality trait—to always have a “spare supply” when dating. They run the cycle with more than one person so they always have someone to love bomb while they are discarding you. It IS a trait of the narcissistic abuse cycle. Look it up!

I’m a member of Aaron’s channel. He did the wrong thing and he has lost someone incredible which has cost him dearly. That is the ultimate price to pay, not subs or views, despite what most comments say. You will ultimately find someone who will make you truly happy forever. Thankfully you didn’t spend years more with him and then found out. It’s a shame many people have decided to use your story to point-score and attack him. You’ve been treated poorly by him and now by others. Life is unfair sometimes, you deserve better.

@DrCornwater:
I can understand where you're at, and I think it says a lot about how big your heart is. Nothing in your videos seemed like it came from some super emotionally unstable place, to me, a professional emotionally unstable person. It only felt like your truth and an honest look into your headspace. There's no malice or shame in speaking openly like you did, and anyone saying otherwise is sadly mistaken.
Your videos are incredibly educational and entertaining. You seem like such a sweet and emotionally curious person who sees the complexity in life and people. I've gleaned a lot of insight and confirmation about things I'm learning on my own healing journey through your videos. So I hope you can put them up again one day.
I share your videos with as many people as I can. You have a unique voice and perspective that cannot be replicated. It's why I come back and tell others to check you out, too. I wish you the absolute best, Jenna! You're a fuckin warrior and a one of a kind presence here on the internet ❤

@cdickenson82:
I think she is speaking honestly and factually and I agree with her stance. Have you experienced a cult? I did and it so thoroughly screwed my ability to romantically relate in an appropriate way. The one thing I think she is wrong is that she owes none of us an apology.
2025/01/15
@acat674:
He’s still a Scientologist. No matter how much he denies it, his actions 100% convince me he’s still mentally in
2025/01/15
@cdickenson82:
@acat674 well I completely disagree with you there but I do believe he screwed up and earned the consequences. That being said Aaron clearly has issues stemming from his time in Scientology and as someone who himself has escaped a cult I can say that I and everyone I've known of who spend a significant time in had clearly stunted emotionally as well as other areas like conflict management, social awareness and many other ways. That doesn't excuse him but it does offer an explanation and in my opinion a chance to continue changing and growing. It could take the rest of his life to overcome issues left over from a cult.

@tcurry1531:
This video makes me believe that you forgive Aaron for what he did to you. You have had two relationships in your life, one was with a man who cheated on you. To be honest I would rather see you with your husband than Aaron because it is obvious you have forgiveness and love for each other. Aaron on the other hand doesn't know how to love or be respectful to a woman who he told he loved her. In order for you to move on you have to let go of the fantasy that Aaron, either loves you even though he cheated or that he does not have the true capacity to love another person. I do believe he covers up a lot of things by not addressing them in his mind. I will continue to support you because even though you want to take blame for hurt or anger in the relationship you never stepped out of it and you never cheated that indicates exactly who you are. I don't wish anything bad for Aaron because I think he has done a lot of good for Ex-Scientologists, but this is not the first time he has had bad relationships with women and I would bet on it that it won't be the last. Remember you can't move forward until you let go of the past.

2025/01/15
@buttershy_:
Exactly. I wish I heard this years ago, but I'm not sure if I would've believed it due to how bad my mental health was, and how attached I was to my cheating abuser. A few months after I left, I couldn't believe I put myself through that. There really is SOOO much better out there. I thought it was normal for relationships to be bad most of the time, and really good for a small amount of time (& what a "coincidence," it was always around the time I was getting fed up and ready to leave 🙄). Finally being in a normal relationship, learning what it means for someone to actually care about you & not just use you, was completely freaking life-changing.

@jillhamilton1916:
Jenna, Jenna, Jenna why even read anything sent to you from Aaron. NO CONTACT is the only way. I learnt one can be too nice. There are men who don’t shout, cheat , use people and who are supportive, loving , kind and reassuring. I know he is to be pitied not blamed in the long run but from my own experience that took a good year to feel in my heart. Now, decades later, I wonder what on earth I saw in him. Nice girls don’t always win. Anyway I wish you well in your journey. Aaron creeps me out and I have a pretty good antennae.

Oh Jenna please don’t make excuses for him and his horrible and horrific treatment. He has no respect for you, his wife or Lyndsey.

@freshofftheboat4ever:
My ex was a covert narcissist. This means that he was able to hide his narcissism from others and himself by portraying himself to be the quiet nice guy. I was never yelled at in my abusive relationship. I got flowers at my door whenever I got sick. Most dangerously, I got beautiful heartfelt apologies and efforts to make amends. Our relationship was at its best after I found out he had cheated on me. Manipulators can take buzz words like nuance and empathy and turn them completely on their head— it’s so second nature that I don’t think they even know they’re doing it.

Jenna, firstly, just know you are beautiful, inside and out. You deserve the best, so don’t settle for anything less. Something I have learned throughout my life regarding partners, is it takes time to really know who they are. You know in your gut when something gives you pause, listen to it.
👉Also, ask yourself if you would be better/happier alone. When a woman is self confident and not “looking”, she seems to have a positive aura around her. You will be amazed at who might be knocking at your door. 👈
It’s great to have a partner but can be disastrous if that person is the wrong one. You are intelligent and beautiful….give yourself time. You have got this, Jenna. 💕

You are so brave and no judgement at all for putting up and then taking down your videos. I just want to share with you what I have learned in therapy after being betrayed for over 16 years. Cheating is a choice, no one made him do it. I understand you both have complicated histories growing up in a cult. I have much compassion for both of you, but I just want you to remember it's always a choice. Much love on your healing journey.💜

Take care Jenna, and I hope to see some new videos about a favorite recipe, a gardening tip, or any lifestyle topic you wish to talk about, when you feel ready.

Hey Jenna, outside observer here. It's refreshing to hear this today. I had posted on your initial video a partially informed response to maybe shed some light on my thoughts of your situation. I had thought when I posted it that maybe it was stepping beyond my bounds and maybe being unfair to people whose side I never got to see. I thought about going back just to remove the post, and never did. I didn't like the idea that my critique was out there as it really felt like something that should have been told to someone person to person rather than a permanent statement on a YT post. Your response today shows to me the highest level of maturity and emotional intelligence and perspective. It is so refreshing and admirable. I really intended the best for all parties, and am here wishing you and your family/families the best moving forward Jenna with whatever you do. Be well 😊

@I_Saw_Stars:
This reminds me so much of a story my younger cousin recently confided to me: when she was 16, she was waitressing at a restaurant and her 50-something year old boss groped her in the back room. When she told someone, they said "he has a family to support. You don't want to ruin him do you?" And she shut up and stayed until he did it a couple more times and she finally left. When you hear that story, I would guess you're as appalled as I was. So why is it ok if its you being hurt with that as a justification for keeping quiet about it? Just something to think about.

I hope you see how lucky you were to find out what a lying cheating bastard he is before you and your kids got even more invested.

@marieanderson6266:
Action speaks louder than words. He showed you with his on going cheating how little you mattered to him or that he even cared about your feelings. He definitely did not have any respect for you. That apology holds little truth I am afraid from my perspective. Of, course you are likely a more forgiving person than I will ever be and that is admirable.

I was never a Scientologist, but have followed Tony Ortega, Leah Remini and all the films. I understand how difficult it must be to leave and navigate the real world. Everyone on that journey deserves some grace. I was never a follower of your ex, but he has a lot of followers and with therapy, will be fine. It seems like you have a great network. I will say, rather than your romantic misadventures, Levin’s attemp to discredit Mike Rinder was appalling because, exiting a cult and doing the work to help others is most important. MR wasn’t perfect, but he kept me informed and I give him grace. Be well ❤ and RIP MIKE

I feel for you but you are making too many excuses for him. It was abuse plain and simple. He’s done it to more people than you.

My heart goes out to you. You should never have been treated that way. Still, I’m glad you took the videos down for your own sake.

As women we are made to believe that we should be always the adult, kind, compassionate, healing, saint, etc even in the face of the abuser! i dont believe any of that anymore and i see it as a way to keep us under control. I’m not buying it anymore and it has taking a lot of work (still in progress) to free myself from those chains. I absolutely loved your truthful, honest, brave videos, it helps us all wake up! I also understand your position now since ive been there too! The guilt because i wasnt a saint everytime! I have found so much healing into acting more from my true and normal anger when it rises. Rage is WISE! It’s life changing and i thank you so much for those videos and its a road that we are all walking in different stages but know that you are NOT alone and that in whatever stage youre in, we’ve got you. You ROCK sista! You are an inspiration! Ive seen your strenght and i say 🔥 🔥 🔥 to your strenght!

@margienieuwkerk:
Dearest Jenna, Please please please understand, people have not unsubscribed from him just because of what you said. He has been abusive over and over again, and it's just your message that was the final straw for many of us. The most helpful thing you can do is to be strong for yourself, your children, his children, his wife, and the others that have been abused by him. Let his apology give you closure, and be brave enough to set an example to others that you CAN overcome this, and to show that what he offered was not real love, and at some point through your journey you will show what that REALLY is. Dearest, be PROUD, this will help you and the children and the others so much more than blaming yourself. You can see for yourself how loved you are. Just look at the waves of it below!!!
2025/01/15
@rebeccahowell6538:
Absolutely- if Jenna's video was the only thing I saw- I would have chalked it up to sour grapes and immaturity. No- I unsubscribed when he was ousted from the Aftermath Foundation and did a little digging on him. What's more- his lame "open marriage" shit was bs on it's face. Get a divorce- don't use your wife as a doormat.

@brenda71657:
Jenna, thanks for your video. We were upset for you because it's easy to see what a good kind person you are & no one wants to see someone like that hurt. Do not listen too much to all those who give advice. Listen to your own heart and mind and stay honest with yourself. I have faith you will do the right thing for yourself and those you care for. No one has all the answers, though they may try to get you to think they do. My best wishes for both you and Aaron, together or separately. That's your business.

@LakerDog2989:
Jenna, I’m sorry you felt that you had to make a video about taking down your previous videos. However, I understand that there was so many questions as to why you took them down. It is my hope that this video will calm the conversations about your personal life. Moving on when you’ve been hurt is tough enough, but having thousands of people with their “own take” will only make it harder. My suggestion is for you is to do things that make you happy, whether or not that means you start back to making content. Your channel matters to many people, whether it’s talking about COS or not. Please know that you are not alone in this journey. Take care.

I know this phase of the narcissistic abuse cycle. He is exploiting your kindness at this point in order to salvage his reputation and to try to continue his bad behavior. Please take care of heart as people like ASL will see you as a target due to your empathy and kindness. He may pretend to care to get fuel from you, but in the end you will be cheated on, abused, and discarded like every other woman in his life. Being screamed at, which so many people have said about ASL, is NEVER OKAY! It's not a part of a healthy relationship, EVER. How he cheated, screamed, belittled, and ignored your needs is abusive. Everything he does is part of his manipulative plan. This video makes me sad. I hope you realize your worth and finally see him for what he truly is. The crying and fake apologies are part of the cycle. The more you fall for it, the more he'll disrespect you and abuse you.

I wish the best for you but I think even you know that this is not it.

@ladymystery9066:
This!!! Jenna, you said you made the video to hold yourself accountable to not going back.... he is using guilt and next will come the love bombing... it's a cycle. Yes there were good times but it's the quality and severity of the bad times that make it an unhealthy relationship. Being psychologically and emotionally abused and the scarring it causes aren't healed by good times they are healed by his efforts to make true change which starts with a MINIMUM of him beginning therapy with a licensed professional. Period. He won't make LASTING change without it. Settle for nothing less than what you deserve ❤

They give their lives up for kids, destroy their bodies for kids, give up careers for kids/family...There is just no excuse. Draw your boundaries and never give them up, for anyone.

You fee you haven’t been speaking rationally? I wonder why you feel that way. Nothing you’ve said has seemed irrational.
Every toxic relationship is very beautiful and very tragic that’s part of why it’s so addicting I’m sure you know. As someone who’s been with myself, talking about the abuse that you go through and the reality of the situation is not ignoring the beauty that came with it, but you cannot have one without the other in these situations I promise.
Empathy factor of zero? Sounds like where someone has to be when they’re cheating. Reactive abuse is very real as well. When someone invalidates and lies and betrays you and then uses your natural emotional reaction to further shame and invalidate you.

Don't let an abuser make you feel bad for defending yourself. Take it from someone who was cheated on he isn't sorry for cheating, but he is sorry he got found out as a cheater!

@I_Saw_Stars:
This video makes me so sad. Jenna, ask yourself why you feel the need to publicly apologize for so much, while he made no apologies at all. It just hurts to hear you feeling so guilty when you did nothing wrong. Just remember that your voice is allowed and your truth is nothing to feel guilty about.
2025/01/15
@la.chameleon:
Jenna, it is lovely to see you. I hope you and your family are well again very soon.
Like others have said, you should not feel that you owed anyone an apology, however, if choosing to publicly apologise will help your personal recovery then I'm pleased that you have done so.
I'm not going to comment on the relationship side of things, or label anyone for things they have done that have obviously been hurtful to you (as they would have been to 99.99% of others who found themselves caught up in an emotionally charged, very painful situation), except to say I'm so pleased that the majority of people have been supportive to you during a really rough period of your life.
Unfortunately, some good people have been caught in some very nasty crossfire/fallout in the last couple of weeks. Jenna, please know & believe that isn't your fault so don't own it in any way. IMO, the people who have chosen to act in this way are the ones who need to look at their behaviour.

@kristiN1214:
I was already subscribed to Aaron’s channel but knew who you were of course…I had no idea that you and Aaron were in a relationship until your first video, but watching that video I immediately thought the two of you would of made perfect sense and lived happily ever after in a perfect world. I’m sorry that the relationship didn’t work and that there’s pain from that loss. I didn’t unsubscribe to his channel after your videos, I was very hurt for you and surprised that he wasn’t able to protect your trust and what you two had built but I’ve had a full life and I’m more of a realist now because of it so I understand that there’s two sides to a story and how we carry traumas from childhood that affect us through our whole lives unless we work hard with professionals to get past it. I think Aaron has done incredible and exhaustingly hard work as far as protecting people from the lie that is Scientology and gives such a good perspective of it because he too lived in that world…you both work very hard bringing Scientology’s evils to the light. So, I would never unsubscribe to his channel like maybe some did. It was just hard not being upset for you and disappointed because you were very hurt and you seem so sincere and humble and that touched alot of us I think. I hope the best for you both.

I’m so glad u got the apology that was so important to u. U deserved that for sure. One thing that truly puzzles me and also angers me is that so many people think they have the right to diagnose Aaron and call him a narcissist and an abuser. Please don’t listen to them. They r outsiders and not doctors. While I don’t agree with cheating I know that it is your choice to forgive or not and no one else’s. Don’t be pressured by any of us. AND I know from experience abandonment is real and real horrible! Do what u feel in your heart is right and what YOU want to do. I am rooting for u two!!! F the haters and F sciento!!

@MadeleineDittlau:
Jenna, sometimes the most loving thing you can do for someone (and for yourself of course) is showing them that there are consequences to their actions. The videos you made and then took down was a consequence. Not that you owe him any love of course after how he treated you, but if you want to be kind to him, it is not by letting him off the hook in any way or protecting him. You are NOT responsible for his income or his family, he IS. Wishing you all the best Jenna!

This isn’t about what you did. This is about what Aaron has done. Aaron has a toxic streak. He doesn’t have integrity and when someone does what he did - constant affairs, alcohol & addiction issues, the way he treats women, the fact that he took documents and exposed them, knowing full well victims would also be left exposed as targets. Aaron needs treatment. You’re doing yourself and Aaron a great disservice, by smoothing over his narcissistic, toxic, behaviour. I hope you are well and most of all, I hope you concentrate on your healing and well being.

Wow. Talk to your inner child as an adult. Would you let your child-self, be treated like that? Wouldn’t you step in and tell her that she deserves someone who makes her feel safe, loved, etc? You deserve a capable, reciprocal partner. You cannot change or save anyone. The kindest thing you could do is let Aaron go fix his major personality disorder and learn how to be emotionally intelligent, before moving any further. I have been where you are. You NEED to put yourself first. You will not believe how great life can be, when you commit yourself, to limiting yourself to things that bring joy & happiness. Love is not a man who dismisses your bond. He is exactly like a drug addict. He has to want to fix himself. It left my husband, now he’s a helpful. meaningful father to our kid.

2025/01/15
@buttlord-v4i:
@rebeccahowell6538 I am a man and it somehow always feels like I'm in the position of power, in any romantic relationship. And the idea of, being bad to someone, abusing them, accidentally, just out of ignorance, has always scared me. Because I just never want to be that. I love being good to people, being loved and having been deserving of it, having someone be more than they were, for having known me. Someone looking back on me fondly, 15 years after the fact. Raising their standards and not tolerating being mistreated at all, having known what it is like to be treated respectfully, lovingly, reverently.
Realizing (mostly from comments Mike Rinder made soon before his death, but also Aaron's own admissions, and sentiments supported by how he treated Jenna) just how terrible Aaron is to EVERY WOMAN he touches is just heartbreaking and disgusting.
And yes, being someone who is NORMAL and prosocial and recoils from the idea of harming another, I just didn't believe that Aaron was this thing he is, it took hearing it over and over from multiple people, and Jenna's voice specifically, she is just so decent that her words hold much more weight. And now I feel betrayed by him, and ashamed of supporting him, when he was very much entirely very far in the wrong. I'd die before ever degenerating into something so indecent as him. Even as an angry and confused teenager and young adult, I never treated women so horribly as he does... A married man, with a daughter..... None of that has persuaded him to become remotely decent??
Part of remaining a decent person I think, so often involves remaining willfully blind to just how completely rotten so many people are. I'd never suspect anybody of secretly being as rotten as Aaron is. Especially someone I like? No, of course he could never do such things! But there's no doubt about it now... It's so wild, why did he ever get into wanting to be in a nonprofit that exists to help people? He clearly doesn't care about people who aren't him.... So why did he ever put himself in this space? Was it all just desire for fame? To gain access to more broken women, confused enough to have him? I can't make sense of any of it. I think that aspect where it just doesn't make sense has given him so much cover. People don't believe he could ever be so thoroughly rotten, because it just doesn't make sense to them, they can't grasp by he chooses to be this thing, when he is perfectly capable of being a man
2025/01/15
@Geoplanetjane:
Jenna, please be good to yourself and make sure that your always being your own best friend. You have gotten attacks? Why? That makes no sense. Sometimes the only response you can have to verbal abuse is to shout back indignantly and defend yourself. You may have been, naive, Jenna. But that is no reason to blame yourself for anything. You may find it within yourself to forgive for whatever reason, but that is never a reason to allow yourself to be abused ever again. Jenna, you are kind and gentle soul and if you choose to form a new relationship, go very slowly and be truly sure that your trust will not be violated. If you are going to be with a new person, it would be vital for you to know a great deal about that person’s history, especially with previous love interests, marriages, and business/political dealings. If a person takes a sexual relationship casually, that should be a giant red flag. Women who are truly wanting to be loved far too often fall prey to men who are seeking not much more than a convenient hookup and/or pretty arm candy. Men are wired very differently than women are, primarily because our hormonal balances are so different than those of men. Evolutionarily, it is to males’ advantage to spread their genes as widely as possible. For women the consequences are more far-reaching. It is far too easy for women to want to be loved by a man they are sexually attracted to. Men are not wired this way. So, Jenna, above all, value yourself for the kind, intelligent, and beautiful woman you are and never allow an abuser back into your good graces. Apologies can come far too easily along with promises that abuses will never be committed again, including gifts, flowers, whatever. Be careful, in all things and know that you are worthy of all good things this life has to offer.

It is your decision to take them down but, in my opinion, you shouldn't have. Those where revenue for you and your kids. He called no doubt he was crying. Everyone has seen how he uses the crying😭. Crying about how this was going to affect his income and family. Well, what about you and yours. Think of yourself and your kids first and no one else. especially someone who does not deserve your loyalty.

Doing damage control for someone who has a pattern of manipulative and abusive behavior towards women, is not a good or healthy thing. Consider every point you made in this video --- how many of them came from other people talking in your ear behind the scenes, and how many of them are truly your own? I wish you well in your recovery from this and a healing journey that will allow you to be strong in who you are, and know that you have value, to think for yourself and not allow another to use you/manipulate you against others. Good luck.

The problem is that he uses any foundation he’s attached to to seek female victims to abuse. Let’s face it. Rinder was right and the community was wrong. Rinder and his failure with Mirriam and the legal community failure with the victims are not excuses to continue to support Aaron. As for his family and children, they are clearly aware of the problem. Empathy doesn’t mean revictimization of others.

@jldisme:
Imagine if a man lied to his significant other, telling her that he was sober and okay to drive, when he was not. He has a crash which seriously injures her. "I'm sorry. I didn't drink and drive in order to hurt you. It's not my fault anyway, because I have to drink to deal with my past trauma, which I know you understand since you have been through the same trauma. Please don't blame me. Please don't speak out about this. If people knew I was an alcoholic, they might not subscribe to my channel anymore, and I'll lose the income to support my kids. You'll ruin my reputation and hurt my family. There are people who want to destroy me, and you will be helping them if you speak out." Now imagine those people are Mothers Against Drunk Driving. The man has no intention to stop drinking (although he says he will) and will drive drunk again. Are you in any way responsible for this?

@marthasimons7940:
My darling lovely Jenna, you sound like me 40 years ago. Relationships can be like Teddy bears. Sometimes we have partners come into our lives temporarily to help us move forward like a kid bringing their teddy bear with them on their first day of school. The teddy bear helps you get stronger to leave mommy and daddy to become a big girl. You know your own life and appear to be like many of us who had to rebuild our self esteem from a childhood of trauma- we might become blinded by a small cookie of love instead of the big banquet. Your relationship with Aaron may not be the best for you. You can leave it wishing him well but take care that you do not get caught up in the honeymoon- abuse cycle where a partner pleads for forgiveness, gives sweet words and makes promises of never again only to repeat abuse because they are unhealed. You probably know all this but it's worth repeating maybe not for you but for the ones in the back. You might like to read " Men who Hate Women & the Women who Love Them" a book by Joan Torres and Susan Forward It began my journey of freedom from choosing the wrong men in my life. I say this with love and support you in your journey. All the best Jenna. ❤❤❤
2025/01/15
@cadencejane75:
Honey, I’m studying psychology. I adore you but this is NOT love. It’s limerence. You are not causing anyone pain, and Aaron is not a victim. Your videos were a moment of clarity and insight, not a mistake, and your truly extraordinary empathy is causing you to accept blame when none is warranted. Please do not fall for the “we’re equally to blame” and “it’s not my fault, I was traumatised as a child,” narrative; lots of adults are traumatised, but they do not behave that way and as adults we are responsible for our own behaviour, and the consequences of it. You don’t need to apologise for anyone else. You don’t need to apologise for yourself. You have done nothing wrong. When someone genuinely loves you, there is no pressure to be better or do better (whatever arbitrary standard that is) - they love you as you are.
2025/01/15
@bydivadream:

2025/01/15
@cadencejane75:
I know it feels temporarily empowering to take responsibility for absolutely everything and everyone, which is why Scientology appeals to a lot of people who feel powerless. But ultimately, that’s an impossibility. You are responsible for you, your children, and the way you act on your feelings and impulses and the way you show up in the world and literally NOTHING else.
You are a good person.
2025/01/15
@cadencejane75:
Also, yelling when are cheated on or abused or threatened or gaslit of controlled is not equal or mutual abuse. It is self-defence. There’s a lot that’s been written about this in the academic literature.
I am not vilifying anyone. As I’m learning to be a therapist, a critical part of my training is to be able to hold space for the damage done to a person as a child while still expecting the adult in front of me to meet basic standards of behaviour, and I can critique the behaviour of the adult as means to accessing the deeper issues of childhood trauma. The issue I have is that the latter conditions - basic standards of behaviour and accessing deeper issues do not appear to be happening on one side of the equation and that side is not your side.
Of course, IDK for certain because I wasn’t there. But I’m confident in my ability to spot a rigid, entrenched behaviour pattern when I see it, and I’m learning to recognise when those patterns fit into a diagnostic construct.
Another therapist said something better than I can, which is to wait 1-2 years to date, or until you feel 100% confident in yourself, however long that takes, and I completely agree.
A person who genuinely loves you will respect this, support your autonomy, hold space for your needs, and make a clear determination as to whether they feel they can wait romantically or not. If not, they’ll support you as a friend, and if so, they’ll encourage you in the interest of your relationship. Neither of you are concerned with starting families, so you should be able to wait, if it’s genuinely meant to be: there’s no rush. What a person who loves you will not do is try to sweep you off your feet in a hurry, then get into a toxic push-pull struggle for power and control while arguing over who is to blame and banging anyone who’s up for it, especially if that person is over 40 years old. This is adolescent behaviour. You deserve to have a peaceful, respectful relationship between completely equal adults who gradually, over time and by mutual agreement each place the other person’s welfare ahead of their own and keep recommitting to that choice every single day and prove it through their actions.
Furthermore, you cannot be both partner and therapist. That’s never going to be a healthy relationship. Ever.
I cannot repeat this enough: you are a good person. You are enough just as you are. You absolutely blow me away with your insight and empathy that it takes others, including those of us who were not raised in deprivation in a cult, decades to learn - it comes naturally to you. It’s an admirable virtue and tremendous strength that you have but can also be weaponised and exploited, so hold it close to your chest, please be gentle with yourself and judicious with your heart.

You are a very well spoken, honest, loving, caring young lady who has lived more emotions than your age.
Just don't get into apologizing for him- and I don't see you going too far there.
What you have said and done, you did beautifully, and with eloquence, as only your pure heart knows.

This video is breaking my heart. You were acting like Aaron is the victim. A leopard never changes his spots. While you were in this relationship, he cheated on you no less than three times. It’s so sweet that you’re showing this compassion, but I really wish you’d turn that into a little bit more anger. I’m worried that you’re going to fall into the same trap. You need to protect yourself and distance yourself from people like Aaron. I’m glad that you have some good memories associated with your relationship, but that does not outweigh what he did with you at this point, it looks like Mike Rinder was right about Aaron all along. I’m so sorry. I understand that you are struggling with abandonment issues. There are a lot worse things in life than to be living alone. You have your kids… They love you… You love them! It doesn’t help them for you to be in toxic relationships.

@heatherwhite2788:
There are many choices as to how to make a living. Some of those are reputation based, and someone who finds it impossible to legitimately build their reputation, rather than leaning on multiple others to keep the truth secret, may not be suited for this way of making a living. Someone who has abused someone in a vulnerable position seeking help should not be allowed to place themselves in a position of claiming to help more people with nonprofit dollars. You were right that someone who can’t be trusted, can’t be trusted. And that remains true with or without your story.
Wishing you all the very best for the future ❤ You deserve the very best.

@Supriya03pl:
Dear Jenna, I respect your decision, the most important thing here is that you feel good with your choice and what you show on your channel. Your videos about the breakup felt to me like you needed some support in order to not feel like a 'crazy person', rather than an attack on Aaron. I am happy that you received that support and I still feel that your emotions are very valid! Please know that there are many people who support you while not bringing Aaron down, life is not black or white. Don't blame yourself for his actions though, he should solve his problems in therapy. Maybe losing this relationship will be the wake up call he needed. You are still an amazing person that creates a safe space in this community. I am happy that you got some closure and wish you all the best ❤

@terrilandry1191:
I'm going to speak as a dv survivor. At the very least, this was emotionally abusive. Cheating once is a lapse in judgement, more than that is a pattern of behaviour that destroys someone else. It's not on you to be kind to your abuser. Do what you feel is right for you, but don't let him or his heartfelt apologies and efforts to make amends sway what you choose to do. Aaron needs therapy to get through these things, but says he doesn't think so. He will do this again and again until such time as he gets the help he needs. If you consider him at all, please make it requests to go to therapy. He's not inherently a bad person, but he's going to keep putting women through this until he gets help.

Abuse victims do this all the time-blame themselves for the abuse. Sadly, there's nothing we can do to convince the victim/survivor that the problem is NOT you. YOU did nothing wrong. Therapy can help, but they have to be willing to do that. I won't tell Jenna how to feel, I just wish she could see Aaron as the user he is. He is hiding behind his cult upbringing and that is despicable. He DOES know better, he just doesn't care. It's not just you, Jenna! IT IS A PATTERN with Aaron. You can't excuse that by saying "Ooops, sorry! I didn't know any better!" I have seen this over and over and we --out here--can't prevent it and that sucks! We hurt for Jenna and all the other people who fall victim to abusers. No matter how much or how deeply you love him, Jenna, he won't change. I'm so sorry he's done this to you, you DO NOT deserve his anger.

@jcgonzo8623:
Hi Jenna, I don't know you, so I'm not going to carry on like I do. But Aaron's pattern of behaviour is not your responsibility.
He made choices, and for some, the continued history and patterns of behaviour, whether it be manipulations, double standards, double speak, weaponsing para-social relationships and the community covertly, excuses, coercive control, abuses - emotional and mental, hypocrises, omissions, agressive behaviour, passive aggressiveness, convoluted explanations, offensiveness and then don't get me started on the mismanagement and neglection of the SPTV foundation - e.g. the youtube channel should have more than 3k members now, should be montised, with a wealth of information, support and tools for who the foundation is aimed at in an educational way, with trauma informed and educated professionals both on the channel and within the foundation itself, with no linkage to personal montised channels - has made people see who he is. It's not your responsibility.
I respect your concern for his children. But this isn't a one-off thing. It's a pattern. And that's not your fault, and you shouldn't feel any type of way. It's his behaviours, his choices that got himself here, not you. If he feels that he may need to reflect and make changes, then that's down to him to do.
My family excused my fathers behaviour for decades and placed blame on his suriviors, and sure, it wasn't all bad, but there still were destructive behaviours. If someone actually called it out, then maybe not so many people would have had to pick themselves up after being broken by him, and maybe he would have changed. But he manipulated, turned that charm or tears or whatever he needed on, so people complied, became enablers and complicit.
Your experience may be different to my own, but there are similarities that can be compared and contrasted.
But please don't put the weight on you. Dont forget why you put the videos up in the first place, and never get sucked back in and go back. Upwards and forwards, with defiance and determination.
This aint on you. It's on him ☮️

I feel like if Aaron wanted a nice story to be told about him, he should have behaved in that manner. No one's story can be told from their vantage point except by them - in this case, you. I think in these "movements" it is necessary to point to people who deserve leadership roles - meaning many people will make it out but that does not mean everybody who makes it out should be a leader because that is different - it means they are responsible, honest, transparent among other attributes. We do not need a manipulator as a leader - as a survivor sure, but not as a leader. I would release him until he grows, but that's your choice ofcourse. Unfortunately, there are no systems of accountability, but there should be some/more.

People are going to try to stop your having a relationship because they have demonized Aaron. I thought about the abandonment thing. It's a hard road.

I figured you took them down to have 100 percent no contact...like you are suppose to do. You must do this with personalities like Aaron...like narrastistic behaviours. To say sorry to the person that abused you verbally and etc. wasn't needed. What Aaron did wasnt a basic argument? You should only reading the comments of women that experienced the same treatment. Some would say yes it was happy when it was good.... but flip it. Most leave because of the bad. A relationship needs to be happy mentally....with binkering here and there...its allowed.

It's your channel, so I respect whatever decision you make. However, I respectfully disagree with something you said.
He ABSOLUTELY did those things to hurt you. And if it wasn't to intentionally hurt you, he had ZERO cares in the world whether you would have been hurt by those actions AT ALL. He does not think about other people. Why would he have responded to you the way he did when you confronted him on the phone? What was it he said again, when you asked if he was ever going to fess up to the things he did that "weren't meant to hurt you?" Oh, that's right, he said, "Why would I?" That answer says it all.
I still support you, Jenna. I just really want you to consider continuing ANY type of relationship with the person. There's a whole community that is on your side and has seen for months now what this person is capable of. Please take care of yourself. 💕💕💕

I understand why you took down your videos. However, I truly hope you don’t go back to Aaron.

@mothersgauri4137:
So sorry you've had to go through so much. Life can definitely be complicated. Just know that there are many folks out here who are silently supporting you. Growing up in an abusive cult ( or any abusive situation) takes a LOT of healing work. Honestly, I think, a lifetime. ....although as long as we are working on it, it just keeps getting better...we grow and learn. I hope you will be as patient and kind to yourself as possible. ( A good counselor / therapist / guide would always encourage that.) As far as I'm concerned, I can't see that you've done anything to apologize for. You honestly shared your feelings...it takes courage to be honest and I don't find that a crime or mistake. I might even call it a super power. And to do a follow up to add clarification is also fine. The point is we are all human. Perhaps a big part of life is simply accepting that fact. Scientology does not recognize that, and so it is indeed a long, tough road to get out of that erroneous thinking that's been baked in.. Please feel free to completely discount what I am going to say here....I'm just passing on some things I've learned in my own life that may or may not even apply: Love is a complex emotion. Sometimes we misunderstand love as being that "passionate attraction" we can have. That kind of relationship won't last because it is not based on the true fullness of what love really is. Real love is unconditional love..the kind that creates a true and lasting relationship. True love accepts the flaws. True love supports the other person no matter what they do or what happens. (obviously I am not saying you support abusive behavior.....don't misunderstand) True love seeks to support and uplift each other...on BOTH sides.. Think of your children. That mother's love is an important part of real love. And of course 2 wounded people ( especially who never really learned what love is or even human social values and skills) will generally not end up being able to support one another..... UNLESS both of those people are sincerely willing to work on HEALING the wounds. As long as wounds are ignored and buried, they are always there and will destroy that person, and others as well.. I am going out on a limb and just saying this...I have been a supporter of Aaron for a very long time through his work and what he has personally shared openly to his viewers over the years. (And I still support him and am pulling for him to find the happiness he deserves) It is quite clear to me that he is still running away from his pain. And as such, he will not be able to have a healthy relationship with anyone until he can heal the relationship within himself. That has to be recognized. To support someone's destructive behaviors is not love. And it isn't healthy for anyone. I hope ( if you aren't already doing so) you will also be sure to get a lot of clarity on what it means to be in a relationship with someone who does have narcissistic tendencies. Someone who has been in a cult can be pretty darn vulnerable and naive about those things. That type of personality will find endless ways to drag you back again and again and it is not healthy for anyone. You don't need that. And he doesn't need someone to allow him to continue to do that. Sometimes supporting someone, means being willing to stand up to seriously unhealthy behaviors. And not allow them to blame YOU for their own destructive behaviors. As adults, we ALL have to take responsibility . You don't help a drug addict by buying him drugs. I'm sure you understand my point. You can still love them....but from an appropriate distance ...with appropriate boundaries, where it won't be harmful. My heart is sincerely with you both...and with all who are struggling to regain their lives after having to grow up with so much pain and dysfunction. It is so very hard. I hope what I have said here will not be misunderstood . It is coming from my heart. And there is no need to respond or even listen to or believe any of this. I'm simply offering my thoughts. Any true relationship should not require ANY strings. Strings are a red flag. You deserve to find true and lasting happiness. You are clearly a very, very special and beautiful person. You have my great respect...keep going....it WILL get better.

SUCH a disappointing video. When escaping NPD abuse, they teach a "clean break". You must enact the "no contact" rule for the rest of your life. Because if not, what happens is exactly what we see here. They will always get inside your head, they will always find a way to reel you back in. ALWAYS. You must escape, change your number, change your address, and never look back. Aaron's apology means NOTHING. I swear. Its manipulation. I had re-subbed after your videos to show support, sadly. kw I will be unsubbing again, as I have no desire to watch this pattern of abuse cycle, which is what this is.

BUT what you are forgetting Jenna he cheated on all of you because he is STILL MARRIED. That alone shows you that he cant be trusted. He cheated on is marriage for years and you all think thats ok? You truly believe that his wife is ok with all this too? I hope you are wiser than this and dont go falling for the head games that he is putting on you. Please respect yourself more than he does. Please be strong and walk away from this mental abuse you are getting. So many of us have walked in your shoes and are begging you and warning you about what is next.

What he did was not part of love. Also, forgiveness is for you, not for him. It does not mean what he did was okay or to be forgotten. Forgiveness is so you can move on away from him. Accept the apology and learn from this as you go in a different direction. Taking the videos down is okay if you want to protect his children but do not do it for him or others who have been in an abusive relationship. If people are twisting your words then maybe reconsider keeping the videos down so your true words can be checked. I am concerned you may be rethinking things and starting to put some of the blame on yourself. Please, please don’t. Please don’t let him continue to control you. You deserve much, much better.

This makes me really sad because now it seems like you’re coming up with excuses for him and his behavior. I’ve seen abusers use their family as ways to get sympathy when they knew their behavior was wrong. My heart hurts for you and I hope nothing but the best for you

@Sleepingsparklegirl:
Sounds like she’s being gaslight to me. It makes me sad that your defending someone who continues to make poor choices which effects others well being. I hope he gets help and I suggest you go to therapy, I grew up with a parent who was a*** both mentally and physically. I would constantly make up excuses, blame myself and say very similar things like your saying in this video. What he did and is doing is not okay. Know you have self worth, I suggest to cut ties with him until he has gotten help. Hope you get to a better place.

I am not sure how you are causing pain as its vague and I may be missing details, but please keep speaking your truth whatever you want to share. Keep your head up held high. You are a strong woman, strong mother, and you have a good head on your shoulders. Please just don't give up, and keep speaking up to help others and get many out of their grasp.

@belindawhite2049:
Jenna, as a therapist I recommend that you do some reading about narcissistic people & being in relationships with them. I also recommend taking time out from any romantic relationships for a long while - 12 - 24 months, to work on your own healing & self-love & self-worth. Get to know who you are as an adult, single woman. Get really happy & comfortable being alone. Loving yourself more than you ever imagined. And then, if you have so much self-love & truly enjoy being alone, and you still want to accept someone like him in your life, then do so. I've no doubt though, that if you got to that point of self-love & self-worth, the behavior and type of relationships you will accept into your life will change a fair bit. The bar will be a lot higher. I know you love him and this is really hard, but he has shown you who he is. Believe it.

@rebeccahowell6538:
This is great advice. I dated immediately after being with a narc but you can't replace that kind of intense relationship. It was too soon and the guy was so kind (we are still friends but I doubt he'd ever re-date me again LOL). I went to therapy and cried and cried. My therapist was so understanding of what I had experienced. I still see her for little check-ins and I'm happy to say that I love my life- and more importantly I love and respect me. I am a great catch and I am happy with my life- my friends (they really love me!) and my family. I have so much inner peace and now those nasty jealous thoughts and ruminating over this guy (I ruminated for years! Not going to lie) One thing you have to accept. You will never get closure. You just have to accept that this person doesn't love you and never did. Hard to admit but it's true.

His choice to play the victim is disgusting. He’s a shell of a real man. I hope he changes, and I hope you find one of those Real men to love you gently and truly.

I would suspect, but obviously don’t know, that your husband did not do these things to you and you know it is not normal. It isn’t normal in the least. I do wish you well.

Beautiful one. Your soul is so beautiful that you are sitting there making excuse and being kind. Kindness is good. Forgiveness is important. Forgiveness does not however mean we put ourselves back in the position to be wounded again. Please allow people to surround you in love, but do not apologise for being hurt! You were being genuine and not "perfect". We as humans respond best to real, and when I saw messiness and flaws as you said, I actually finally felt connected to you for the first time! Please don't let your kindness be used to allow someone in your life to wound you. Love from a safe distance, but your hurt was valid, your pain was legitimate. Please don't discredit the real in order to make it more pretty. You are beautiful. Your real is beautiful. Just my thoughts

We all have those but keep those personal between you and your partner or prior, time to move forward not stay in the past discussing the past, many who comment simply want to get into others personal business, keep them away and keep those facts to yourself. You are now capable of moving forward and let the past stay in the past. Let the topic go and you will meet someone else who you can form a new relationship with but out of public on line posting.

@goosebump801:
I can see your POV that maybe he ‘didn’t do it with the intention of hurting you’…but he did make choice after choice which was abusive to you. Facts are facts.
Sarah Boone thought she should be off the hook because she didn’t intend for her boyfriend to die when she zipped him in a suitcase and left him there overnight. She must have said “Unintentional!!” 50+ times, between her police interview and her testimony at trial. And yet…the jury found her guilty of 2nd degree murd3r and she is now serving a life sentence.
I truly sympathize with Aaron’s childhood trauma — as the f^<k I do with your childhood trauma, and that of all other CoS survivors (particularly 2nd+ gens.) Trauma and lack of good role models can shed light on why a person may make abominable choices and repeatedly mistreat everyone around him. But they do NOT excuse these choices, nor obligate anyone else to forgive their own mistreatment.
Of course you also played a role in the bad parts of your relationship, as well as the good. It is human to make mistakes, to hurt others sometimes. It is abusive to repeatedly make the same mistakes which severely injure others, over a period of years, with essentially no true empathy for others. It is (imo) narcissistically abusive to make these repeated, severely impactful mistakes and then “apologize” using terms like ‘self-sabotage’ while gaslighting the injured parties to downplay the severity of the abuse, point out any small failing of the injured parties, and overall attempt to leave the listener feeling at least as sorry for the abuser as for the abused.
If forgiving him will give you closure before moving on with your life, by all means do so. Just be careful of the slippery slope. Sadly, this type of abuse occurs in cycles — and after separating from the abuser is the most vulnerable time, when the abuser may slowly try to worm their way back into your life.
I wish no ruin for Aaron. I hope one day he will pursue therapy for his trauma, rather than trying to dull his pain through alcohol/drugs/sexual conquests.
But I would not recommend that anyone trust him — particularly women, especially kind and generous ones with their own trauma and vulnerabilities 🚩🚩🚩🚩
I look forward to whatever content you choose to put out going forward, Jenna. Sending healing hugs 🙋♀️🤗❤️ - Jenn in Minneapolis 💐

You need to find a wonderful therapist and do yourself a favor and stay out of relationships for now. Work on yourself and heal your soul. He’s not healthy. When someone has this much drama around them it’s fair to say they are responsible for a share of it. You know where there is smoke there is fire. Take care of yourself❤

He didn’t deserve those following him to begin with. Face it, he puts himself out there as an honest upfront person. Now we all know his real personality. I was one who gave him my trust because he seemed so honest and upfront. I will not tolerate liars. He has the temperament and behavior of a high schooler. Never again.

Dear Jenna! It's all part of YOUR journey, and his too. I truely felt sad that day I saw your video, just bc I think you were a great couple (so I've said in comments before). I unsubscribed from Aarons channel to show him my discontentment with his actions, like cheating and yelling. Then I saw his video and I really think I saw his hurt, his distress and worries. After he did this video (the one he took down too) I felt that I could no longer hold it against him, just bc I've done my stupid, hurtful things too, so I subscribed to his channel again. Wish you both well... Liefs/Love from The Netherlands! 🌷☮🌷

Girl he did this to himself. He knew he had a family to support and made the choice to cheat and treat you that way. What’s the phrase. Stay out the kitchen if you can’t stand the heat. He has no right to be mad at your videos after what he did. I’d put them back up it’s your story and he played his role in it. If he doesn’t like the character he played he should have done better not you.

Please look after yourself and your family. They are the most important people. Ignore all the trolls. They don’t deserve one second of your energy.

@betsybabf748:
Straight advice from the heart: You need to stay single for a while. You jumped from a marriage started in a cult, lasting your entire adult life to a new relationship back to back. You aren't in an emotionally healthy place right now to even have a healthy relationship or to even choose the right person, and you have to role model that for your kids, especially your daughter. Spend some time figuring out who you are and what you want as an individual now single. Work on your own self esteem as a single woman so the moment someone shows behavior, which you would not want your daughter to take in a relationship, you can immediately and confidently walk and feel strong, not abandoned. If someone shows you who they are, believe them.

No way he’s gonna heal in time to be a good boyfriend to you when you need it - too much baggage on him, ❤and you going back is NOT going to help him either- he needs to confront his own demons first not in a relationship.

@erika8627:
Oh, Jenna. This makes me really sad, because it sounds like you are getting sucked in again. Sounds like he is gaslighting you into believing that external circumstances are what went wrong with the relationship. He's doing that to excuse himself from accountability. Do not fall for it. There is no "but" in cheating. This will not end happily. YOU are not causing pain, it's his actions that caused you pain. I wish you all the best - please educate yourself on narcissistic personality disorder. It's very, very unhealthy. There is no happiness in a narcissistic relationship. I learned a lot by watching Dr. Ramani's videos here on You Tube. She is an expert psychologist in the matter of NPD. This is part of the cycle of going back into a narcissistic relationship. :( Do you think he'd be so forgiving if you were the one that cheated?
2025/01/15
@FourTwentyGurl:
this seems a bit fluffy of a video. you now make yourself guilty yet you are not the cheater or manipulator. you are still under the control of said person. get therapy now before you completely lose anything healthy you accomplished. he is wrong he is evil he is selfish he used you. this is a huge mistake. sadly you wont see it, they have already gotten to you. he just made you lie to everyone. unbelievable. ps i havent been influenced by anyone, except the facts and truth.

@CleverNerdPun:
You posted a raw video of your honest feelings in that moment, and it was valid, true, and vulnerable. Yes, time has passed and your feelings have become more nuanced, but that doesn't mean the way you were feeling right then was wrong or was supposed to be how you'd stay feeling going forward. I can understand taking it down, because your heart was on full display, but no one reasonable would think that you didn't have good things in your relationship or that your feelings in the heat of the moment were supposed to be the final word on the matter. You'll keep growing, but you're already a mature and thoughtful voice on this platform and in this world. <3 Your feelings are valid. You are allowed to use your voice and your channel however you want. There is no perfect way for you to handle things so that no one gets hurt in a situation where someone else hurt you. Don't apologize for speaking up. You matter just as much as anyone else. Other people telling you you're doing it wrong usually don't have your own health as their first priority.

Agreed. I didn’t hear her apologizing, just explaining why she took the videos down and clarifying other things after the heat of the moment. She was rightfully hurt and angry when she put them up, but it’s not her nature to continue to be punitive because it suits the Aaron-haters. Also I did NOT hear that she’s thinking about, or planning to, reconcile. She’s a grown-ass woman who’s overcome things we can’t imagine, is dealing with a lifetime of trauma, yet still remains a truly nice person. She doesn’t need anyone telling her what to do or to have her feelings dismissed. Mad respect.
2025/01/15
@GreggyMetalhead:
@datachickatl4092 The apologies I was referencing were quick ones towards the end, starting at around the 6:15 mark.
Jenna comes across as a super empathetic person, so I get why she felt the need to apologize there, and again, I appreciate it. That said, she obviously can't control how others respond to things. That's 100% on them. That's all I was getting at, nothing significant.

I know once I was with a partner who treated me very similarly to what you’re describing, I was more likely to gravitate towards that after that ended. Not sure why. I saw ppl suggesting therapy- YES girl! I commented on the initial videos- that this can be the last time you experience a shit partner, if you put some work in. For me was recognizing the bad signs despite the amount of love. The highs are REALLY high and the lows are VERY low. We ❤️ you. Happy to see you pop on, we couldn’t help but be worried after videos were taken down. Take care
2025/01/15
@GratitudeismyAttitude123:
Just know that he deserves every word of what you said and much more. And I'm sorry but all the "good" is rendered null and void once the abuse happens. In fact the "good" is just part of the control and abuse cycle. The "good" isn't at all what it appears to be. Thanks for the update, but please know that you are not required to balance the abuse with the "good"....again, with people like Aaron, the "good" IS also control.
As far as you yelling back, what you experienced is likely "reactional abuse" and you are never to be blamed for that. Also, Aaron is not trying to "do his best", yeah sorry. His cheating was done intentionally because a narcissist doesn't care about anyone's feelings but their own.
Forgiveness is fine, however, please realize forgiveness is done for you and not for them...true forgiveness can be letting that person go, and true forgiveness does not mean you have to let that person back into your life just because you forgive them. True forgiveness can be a way for you to move on in your own life with peace. I respect your decision, however I'm still disappointed the videos are gone. They were brilliant and helped a lot of people see patterns of abuse in their own lives and make changes. Your videos helped call out a horrible abuser, which can alert others not to fall for it. Just please, no matter what, do not feel one second of regret for what you did. You are giving him WAY more grace than he deserves. Keep healing ❤🙏

He's not really sorry. He's just sorry he got caught. Heartfelt apology: he cries easily and I bet his tears were for him, not for you. Cause if you don't want to hurt the one you love, you don't cheat. No matter what. Bad childhood is no excuse, I was physically and mentally abused for years by my stepdad, I'm not a cheater and I don't use my childhood as an excuse for anything. His image is everything to him, so apologizing to you saves his image, which means: saves subs and views. He cheated! Once a cheater, always a cheater. And that is true. Pls take care of you and your kids. Not this narcissist. He needs years of treatment, before that he will hurt you again.

He needs you to get his subs back on his channel, that is what he cares about. His image, His $$, Himself. You're a smart woman, see through these tactics of his.
2025/01/15
@kmarti63:
Exactly. I’m still not going back and subscribing to his channel.
2025/01/15
@terrilandry1191:
@kmarti63 I won't either. What he's done has been done to me and I just can't support a man who cheats and screams at his girlfriend, especially since he won't go to therapy for the issues that cause him to act that way. If he was remorseful and willing to do something about it, I might consider going back, but not if he is just giving lip service apologies.

I also think Jenna it would be wise to see a therapist and stop associating with ex-Scientology members. For a while I obsessed over my ex and trying to fix him and not wanting to think he was a narcissist. What a waste of my time and energy. Move on with your life- get away from the spotlight, the anti-scientology group (just a lot of angry cult members) and find a new way of living. It will free you .

Jenna, you are a beautiful woman who after years of abandonment and raised in a cult is still finding her way. I wish you only the best. There’s just one part of that original video that still rings in my ears . “ I hope he’s nicer to you than he is to our Mom”. Kids can be very insightful. I hope 2025 is a good year for you.

@abigailjupiter374:
From my perspective, this feels like apologizing for and over-empathizing with an abuser and under-empathizing with oneself. Telling the truth isn’t the same as trying to take someone’s livelihood away. The consequences of someone’s actions does not equal them being victimized. This reminds me of when someone is sexually assaulted (not saying you were) and then stays silent because they don’t want to hurt that person or their family or financial status. As if facing consequences for assaulting another human is an act of offence/attack and not a consequence, ie: a result of their own actions. Again - not saying this is your situation, just trying to say how it feels to me. And also, thank you for sharing your truth so openly. Your truth is valid, your feelings are valid, and I stand with you and support you. I admire you for always speaking out. ❤

@terrilandry1191:
This principal applies to all abuse, including emotional abuse. That's exactly what it sounds like he put her through, and cheating is emotional abuse on it's own, anyway. Maybe she wasn't in physical danger on the regular, but screaming at her at all, cheating and lying are all types of emotional abuse that narcissistic abusers use to control and confuse their partners.

Yes. Great comment. Truth and consequences should not be ignored because they cause discomfort to the abuser. That's also called enabling.

I agree, he is clearly a master abuser like those he learned from. They need to reprogram separately.

Jenna, wake up. He was responsible for the kids and the wife (and your relationship) the first time he cheated, and the second, and the third.
If a hole was all he needed to risk his family's income I'm pretty sure you are entitled to be a victim and speak out. I'm pretty sure you (as a human being) are more valid than a man's need of a hole.
And both of you have trauma, his can be his excuse and yours has to be your blame? Nope. Huge red flags.

There is a proper distinction between law and gospel. You could come to understand this if you joined the Lutheran Missouri Synod church.

@kinesis4868:
Jenna your judgement in those videos was perfection. Yes your empathy was eroded due to the pain of what was done to you but it enabled you to fully see clearly how those actions and behaviours were beyond disgusting and completely unacceptable. Please do not discount the realisations and truths you uncovered and needed to share in those moments. Yes, they were your side only … yes, they were based on your pain and suffering - but they were real. Everyone connected with your vulnerability and rallied to support - which is what a healthy society is supposed to do. I’m sure the impact to Aaron was immense but you had a moment of pure realisation - and by extension - so did the community. You do not need to apologise for that. The fact you woke many people up to the fact Aaron isn’t perfect - isn’t a bad thing. He’s a big boy - he can deal.
2025/01/15
@Sptvwatcher:
Thank you for the update, Jenna. I hope you and your kids feel better soon. Even though you don’t owe any of us an explanation or an apology, thanks for explaining why you took the videos down. I think I understand it. But not wanting to be a vehicle through which other people try to ruin someone’s life and hurt their family is very different from allowing that person (or anyone!) to gaslight you and invalidate your experiences and your feelings. (Sorry but that’s what some of what you said sounded like to me). As I said in my comment on your second video, from where I sit the cheating was only the most hurtful part of the relationship; the other treatment was quite enough to make anybody run. As for other problems also making things tough in the relationship, well that is certainly true for all of us, but you deserve someone who will help you through those times instead of making them worse. No one is perfect, but you deserve more. ❤️❤️

This sounds like he is using your kindness to manipulate and control you. People say that he is an ex-scientologist and needs therapy. This isn't an ex-scientologist thing. This is a toxic misogynist thing. He will never get therapy because he doesn't think that there is anything wrong with him. Being an ex-scientologist only goes so far, he is using it as a crutch for his bad behavior. The fact that he refuses to look at himself and change proves it. Admitting you have bad behaviors and doing nothing to change them is the same as saying, it's OK there is nothing wrong with me, it's your fault.
Stay strong Jenna. Don't fall for that sh!#. You are not alone. Focus on the things that make you happy. Spend time with your friends. Don't make content if you don't want to. I'm sure I wasn't the only one that felt like he was dragging you into this.

Yes! The narcissist will make you think the things you say about what they have done is over reacting and you was in the wrong for saying anything. It's why I get upset when I see people say things should stay in the relationship, you shouldn't tell others what goes on in your marriage or friendship. People who look down on such things have to be toxic or very ignorant to toxicity.

I am sitting here soooo f’in proud of you! You are again a rockstar!! I think you are an amazing human being and I also think Aaron has a lot of great qualities. I think you are both people who came from a horrible cult that has caused you both so much damage… and while it looks from the outside like you both are the cutest couple ever… you both come with a lot of baggage. We all go into relationships with baggage… some is carry on sized. Some is the big roller bags… and you both come with huge sets of Louis Vitton bags… it’s hard to tell who’s is who’s and if there are some missing at at the end of the trip…. And that’s ok! If you and he are not a perfect match, it doesn’t mean you won’t be a perfect match for someone. And it doesn’t mean he won’t be better in another relationship. I also think that osa moles have pushed ugly narratives along. And I think spent a lot of money putting people in Aaron’s way. And really… your last name makes you a threat to that cult. It makes you both big targets. Thank you for sharing your video. I think a lot of people were wondering how you are doing. Me included.

I’ve been through this myself and don’t be too hard on her because she will come to the truth but it takes time. I did the same thing myself and I understand it.

Oh Jenna. It hurts me to hear you taking responsibility for so many things in this video that aren’t your fault.
I spent 15 years in a relationship with someone like ASL. I took him back so many times and was so manipulated so many times into thinking I was the problem.
None of this was your fault—even though you have made mistakes and have also been angry.
Just know that we are supporting you if you take him back, and in whatever you do, and we will be here for you when he hurts you again. And he will.
There’s no judgement, and many of us have been through this cycle too many times to count.

You are marvellous in all your beauty and flaws. Stay true to your self, as far as you are capable to. You have excellent tools like reality checks and taking responsibility. You are an inspiration being with your integrity and heart.
I must admi that I truly interpreted your videos as there have been severe abuse, which I have also expressed in a couple of places - when it was just talked about as "cheating". Then later I've wondered if what I heard was abusive patterns at risk to develope in a really bad direction. Anyway it is clearly not healthy and I'm happy to hear that it will not continue.

@TheKatarinaGiselle it's normal for abnormal adults!!!
I’m so glad to see you. I was worried. You are such a beautiful soul! Both you and Aaron grew up in such a dysfunctional setting. You’re right in that you don’t know how a healthy relationship should look,sound, and feel. I don’t think he is a bad person and I’m glad he apologized, but you definitely deserve better than how you were treated by him, however unintentional on his part and I do want to think it was unintentional. Please take care of yourself and know that there are a lot of people who care about you. Hugs. ❤❤❤

Sleeping with multiple women at the same time while lying to each of them to mislead them IS INTENTIONAL. I’m not a hater. That’s just the facts.
2025/01/15
@helenaterschggrt:
The issue it’s not just her, the wife, the ex, and the drug binge during the trial, girl thing, and the pick up truck outside the bar drug binge with another girl, the LA brawl, and when he was running for Clearwater, he called a Scientology girl a c t multiple times, and you hear him say, yes in the past i kind of stalked her on Facebook but she hot man, she is so hot. He lies outright, multiple witnesses incl the bar people said, he said multiple times unprovoked the c to her, which upset the BF. And then he wants to blame the BF. I mean these are just recent events. I’m not not even talking about he was asked to step down, and then he went on a rage, to Mike rinder, he accused of that he was lying having cancer. Serious? Even Leah R spoke out recently how appalling this was. And Mike took he time to make videos, in which he says how much he loves Jenna, and how sad he is not seeing each other, because well due to her relationship with him. I’m going to stop as I can go on. Jenna isn’t that destructive. It isn’t not the same. I don’t think has to do with being in a cult perse. Some had a choice to join others did not, like Jenna. But I must say, Jenna is really quite normal, take accountability and wants to live.

I have been thought similar situations twice before and they thrive on seeing how much you will take from them and how far they can go with you still taking them back.

@SmokeyMountainLightwork:
Jenna, I’m gonna be completely blunt with you. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that you’ve been manipulated. Aaron is running a foundation to “ save “ ppl from Scientology and not only that I’m sure he makes money from his channel. First things first, if you think he apologized to you bc he’s truely sorry. You’re absolutely 100% fooling yourself. He lost thousands of followers when your videos dropped. As he should! What he did to you was unacceptable!! There’s no excuse, period. You need to wake up to the understanding that you have been manipulated. He called you, “apologized to you and sweet talked you into taking your videos down bc he was loosing FOLLOWERS! He knew his channel and everything else with it was crashing and still is. Bc we all know the truth now. We are putting it all together with what’s going on with Aaron. Let’s be clear, you know this and WE know this. Aaron is in no shape and I’m no position to help anyone leave Scientology! Those ppl are trying to pick up the pieces of their lives. Meanwhile Aaron is crashing out. He can’t keep his own crap together much less help anyone else. I personally think he needs therapy and a lot of it and he needs rehab. Also Aaron clearly has a history of treating women like pure trash. His kids have said it, other women have said it, Mike said it before he even died and now it came from you. We know what’s going on here and it’s unacceptable. Jenna, you have every right to leave those videos up. You have every right to speak your truth WITHOUT BEING SILENCED. If there’s one thing Aaron does the best, it’s manipulating ppl. You need to understand that and keep your feelings out it! Enough is enough, Jenna. What is it gonna take for you to stand your ground as a woman, as a mother and as a human being? Seriously??! That man doesn’t love you. He can’t even love himself. He doesn’t respect you, he doesn’t respect his children enough to respect their mother in front of their face! He is an alcoholic and he’s spiraling right now and if you aren’t careful he will take you with him. He’s using you for views on his channel, your the niece of the head of Scientology, he will use you for views, followers, sex and whatever else. You have already seen it and I know that somewhere inside of you, you have thought of that too. Jenna, you have to stop this toxic cycle for you and your children. Enough is literally enough!

@rebeccahowell6538:
Jenna is re-writing history. She said she couldn't get out of bed because of the fighting- that's not healthy. Not at all. Sure he was fun because narcs can be very fun and very over-sexed. They can also be interesting conversationalists and parrot you - so you think you've met your soulmate. But deep down- you know you haven't.
2025/01/15
@tofupuppy:
I have no interest in taking sides, I'm here to support you as you process things- going back to the stories in Beyond Belief, you have been through so much and came through it as someone who inspires others and makes lives better. That's beautiful and empowering. Having not been loved while growing up, I relate to the messiness of being in an adult relationship. Things are not easy, but we need to believe in a positive path. Something good is very possible. Also, I hope you and the family feel better soon.

2025/01/15
@paigebennett7432:
@emilietherese That’s disappointing. WTH?
2025/01/15
@helenaterschggrt:
@terrilandry1191 exactly … he would repost her video (if she didn’t mind and or cut pieces out of it) and say I was stupid. Make a video to remind myself why I didnt deserve her. Someone sometime also need to know that they are not good for someone. IF he truly loved her he would protect her from himself. He knows he isnt good for Jenna and he should stay away from her, behind her back he talked not very nice about her. All the video of his ex gf are gone, but the one he said was crazy and he had 4 years with. She asked him do you have a relationship with her. He said what do you mean with a relationship (typical narcissist question) she says, you know what that means. He said Jenna doesn’t know that she only had 2 men. So he is playing with her feelings. If he care he would NEVER say something like that EVER. How dare he
2025/01/15
@TalisaRiporing:
Agreed! She’s still incredibly weak and easy to manipulate & Aaron relies on that.
2025/01/15
@bernadettestrickland7877:
@terrilandry1191 he would be seeking professional instead of ridiculing it. He would be making sure it couldn't happen again. Instead of gaslighting Jenna. It's really upsetting to see him continue to hurt such a beautiful soul.
2025/01/15
@Sin-D_:
He’s alright done it. Her saying she don’t want to hurt someone who “has a family” that “RELIES ON HIM.” Those are HIS manipulative words. HE should’ve thought about that. It was HIS ACTIONS, not you calling him out for those actions. I’m disappointed that she doesn’t even see it. 😔
2025/01/15
@cjharris594:
@Sin-D_ Sadly she'll only see it when and if she does. She's an empathic soul and he's a narcissist - he found his perfect 'match'. And that said, he doesn't even recognize his horrid behavior nor acknowledge to Jenna his relationship w Lindsay.

@Redhead155:
I truly hope you’re right and the apology, etc was heartfelt. I believe the narcissist in people does not allow them to TRULY apologize from the heart. It makes them say what they think will make them look good to others (like subs) because there has been a shit ton of sub loss and this person wants them back. My opinion of course. Much love to a fellow survivor (of 20 yrs) of a manipulative person
2025/01/15
@rebeccahowell6538:
If you could read the letters my narcissist ex sent me- they can totally apologize and lay it on thick. It's just a game. Manipulation. Heck, they may even mean it in that instant but then poof- soon as you forgive them they are right back at it- the lying and cheating.

@_kaaaatie:
Don't make excuses. There is no such thing as a sincere apology from someone who abuses the way he does. Keep your voice and stay strong. You deserve the most and so much better.

I get deleting the video to not want to remember that moment, or not hurt his kids. However remember cognitive dissonance and please watch Kerry McAvoys PhD videos on how they act nice to gain back control. I do not trust narcissists they will be very specific with how they will guilt trip you and also make you feel like the bad guy. You did nothing wrong sharing your story and he got a taste of his own medicine. He only cares about his image and making money he cares about losing his supply only when he says he cares about the women he’s sleeping with and lying to.

It sounds like you have insecure attachment wounds. Please do not go back to him. Growing up in Scientology is a recipe for someone not to develop a secure attachment. You deserve better. He didn't do this to hurt you but he wasn't considerate of how this would hurt you. That matters.

Because he doesn’t mean it… if he had or did..he wouldn’t have done this for that long… and he did it not just her, many others.. she deserves a good person like her. And they are there.. ❤❤❤ look this person will always be in some drama ALL the time It’s HIM not you.. girl. You nearly not doing the same, at all. And please being in an abusive child hood or one of the parents..gone. Is NO excuse for this behavior at all. He is sucking you right back in, again. You can use that excuse once maybe twice. But not a million times. My dad committed suicide when i was little and my stepdad abused me terrible … that didn’t mean i did the same to my kids, and no I didn’t know how to, as I had no experience myself but I never yelled at them or hit them, I just hugged them as much as I could. It’s not an excuse to do so to you. Besides that’s not it. He has way more other problems.

Many men would be grateful to have you as a partner / true friend in our lives. However, those with integrity (and disreputable pasts) would not allow themselves to do so (we are not worthy) - and risk letting down a beautiful soul such as you. I have stepped aside from a few chances in my life (to commit) due to this inherent attitude - not wanting to hurt someone because of me. Too bad he did not feel this - knowing who he is internally. Best wishes moving forward - our sweet Jenna.

@mikewhetmore6141 don’t shorten yourself you could if this is true, work on yourself, with a professional… because it is true you first have to healthy yourself and therefore love yourself before… and then if you are in that relationship and maybe even fearful you can go together. For me the longest time as i ran off when i was 14, my dad died and my stepdad abused both me and my mom, I never really can remember a normal childhood, because of him. My mom did try. I was so fearful in fact I wasn’t going to have children, but albeit later in life. Am I perfect ? No, if you try your best, the best intentions, and to Learn from mistakes.. thats what it is about. Just saying don’t deny yourself love.

He lost 9,000 subscribers, that's why he apologised now. Don't fall for it, Jenna.
2025/01/15
@mikewhetmore6141:
@corkwoman Yes, I noticed that... I don't think it was because they disagree with his channel content (Cos Destruction) - but purely for the disgust in what he selfishly did to someone many very much admire. Loss of subs isn't the worst of it. It is our lasting impressions of who, many of us thought he was - (potentially) deserving the devotion of a respected / grounded human. A true tragedy of his own making.

@BEACHY_Tara:
@helenaterschggrt Exactly - there are libraries of books about this pattern. BUT the first time it happens to you, you have no idea what hit you and they capitalize on your disorientation to get back in.

2025/01/15
@Tessietooter:
@corkwoman I didn’t unsubscribe from Aaron because I was watching him way before I knew about Jenna. But if she loves her children and focuses on them she will have inner peace and happiness and the right person will come along. She has a great Chanel ! She has a good heart and needs to put herself first. So she can raise healthy happy well adjusted children who don’t have to go through the pain of seeing her hurt. He said it himself. His personal life is no ones business and she needs to stay as far away as she can from Aaron because he seems to have a pattern. I love his Scientology stuff but needs to get his personal life back on a healthy track. But, players gonna play, cheaters gonna cheat. She has to feel she deserves better or she will never get treated better
2025/01/15
@CleoCat55:
that wasn't a real apology. People like Aaron aren't capable of real apologies or real love. That's just the facts.
2025/01/15
@eammbutler1323:
This is so kind and true to yourself. Aaron hurt you and you have ended the relationship. He has apologised and you have moved on, leaving us out of your private life. I came to know about Scientology through your book and recognised then how kind but strong you are, and now you have shown this again. Aaron and you have both escaped Scientology, you had a messy relationship doing you no good and you wisely ended it. But you both continue to support the thousands still in the grip of the cult. And I will keep watching both of your channels.

@Not_that_Brian_Jones:
@ Yeah, the tone, the 'pointing out' that it wasn't all bad, the suggestions that she is somehow to blame for his cheating, the discussion about how things are difficult for him, etc.
One of the things that I find really upsetting is that her own empathy is being used against her. Boy, that hurts to even write.
2025/01/16
@AmarieH216:
I really hope this guy doesn’t get a pass just because he finally “apologized.” Apologies from narcissists are part of the controlling behavior. It’s their way to get a foot in the door (like a crowbar) so they have time to convince you that some of their behavior is your fault. Be careful because they will use that crowbar to beat you into submission.
2025/01/15
@SuperStrik9:
Agreed. Nothing excuses cheating. Nothing.
2025/01/15
@TrishPaq:
@Amarie - 100% agree with your comment! In My Opinion - Jenna needs to gain strength from this and look for how the reciprocation is working for her with everyone around her. IMO Aaron needs to make some sacrifices to show her how much he truly cares; if he really does... Actions Speak louder than Words, Jenna! Remember that!! Much love from Michigan! 💕💕💕

Glad you have processed it a bit more. Be aware that is common for people to empathize with their abusers whether it was intentional or not on his part. Please stop apologizing and stop blaming yourself for so many things. I have Scientologists in my life, and I have noticed that this is something they do constantly.

@helenaterschggrt:
@carothordgray I think it’s also a bit a female thing:) it struck me she is comparing herself as if she did the same to him, which isn’t. At all. Yes she may have yelled at him, however.. she had every right to, with all the things that was done to her. I mean yelling would be nothing, I would be a lot more angry. Hoever I think it’s very normal to go through stages from anger, to sadness, to negation, denial, and at the end it’s the acceptance which can take a while, but once there, you can learn so it won’t happen again, I so wished I had knew about narcissistic people before, I had no clue. And it makes it so much easier to understand AND to say I don’t want that. Because I know now there is nothing I can do to fix ever.

@unodos149:
Honestly, I think taking the videos down is you backing down in a way that you shouldn't, but to each their own. Get into real therapy before you're back into a bad relationship - because unfortunately like many who repeat and don't realize it, your subconscious is programmed to seek out the trauma that feels like "home". Everybody has heard the "but they're more than just the abuse" a thousand times from a dozen family/friends. I'd give Aaron the same advice, because he's walking in a toxic circle himself.
2025/01/15
@song8777:
She’s not backing down. She didn’t want her personal experience up for the world to view for time, eternal, and she explained how taking it down was the better choice for everyone involved. This isn’t a soap opera.
2025/01/15
@song8777:

@song8777 What she said was that she didn't want to hurt someone that she cares about and has a family that "relies on him." This sounds like he made her feel guilty about the videos and what it was doing to his subs. Unfortunately, with a narcissist, they make it like a soap opera.

@1jacquilee:
"I've done some of the yelling" and "there are different kinds of yelling" was hard to hear. Obviously we realize they both probably did and said regretable things but multiple people say he yells to control and intimidate, no impulse control. This sends a bad message to others on the receiving end of this type of abuse.😢

He’s definitely been in there doing some manipulation. if he cared about his family, his extra marital relationships would’ve been handled a whole lot differently. In fact, his marriage would’ve been to. Listen to his children, Jenna. “We hope he treats you better than he treats our mother.” that kind of says everything about that man.

@IngridKB you don’t need to be a wallflower for this, that’s not being said. The problem with people, with narcissistic traits is, (talking bout the other person not Jenna) they only care about themselves, they love empaths like Jenna, and suck them dry. That’s what they do. It’s all what can I get from them. They don’t really have those emphatic feelings in return. Even in the video he made it’s always how he this. Or he that.. and they are always the victim and it’s all others fault. So there we just worry for her. Not that she is a wallflower this can happen to anyone. Usually to very nice sweet empathic people actually.
2025/01/15
@Sin-D_:
@IngridKB We do respect her. That’s why we are supportive. But we also recognize that fighting heartbreak is a whole other animal. So, we are here to try to keep her strong. Aaron is charming and we all know that we can’t just turn off our feelings.

@Dsam1197:
If you were my daughter I’d tell you this. Raise your expectations of a partner. Learn about red flags and honor when they arise. There’s no excuses for bad behavior, mistreatment of others, especially infidelity. Plenty of people who were raised in dysfunctional homes grow up and create loving functional relationships and families. It’s a choice. Would you want your daughter to date someone who behaved and treated you the way you felt in your first videos? Think you need time away from last partner-no communication for 6 months. Heal and get clear on what you want in a partner. Make a list and stick to it. You are a beautiful soul and I wish you a beautiful life. Do not let anyone destroy the life you have created for you and your children.

I think all of you speculating is bullshit and the opposite response to what she wanted and needed from making this video. If you listen, this is all her and how people made her feel. NOBODY forced he to make this and insinuating such a thing is disgusting. She is hurting mostly because of the things that people like you are saying. Speculating and assuming does nothing but..what?

Seems only you know and the other are all wrong Perhaps in a week or so she thinks exactly like a week ago? Seems more like you don’t want her to think badly about the person who did this to her. And not just her. There were 2 other women who had their version and experience video on, and they also removed them, as he kept multiple women, for extended time, at the same time and as in her first video sometimes he did so in one day. Those facts didn’t disappear. No matter the amount of apology he also made to the other women btw.
2025/01/15
@helenaterschggrt:
@ maybe sometimes people regress, however it always ends up the same. Faster actually every time. In the beginnen the narcist will be good for weeks or months, but at some point once he thinks you will come back anyway, it’s merely days, before he resorts right back… and so it may not be this time, but she will, I think she will because she does understand he cheated on her and lied, various times and with multiple women. And for her, being faithful is everything. And so I do think, that’s not what she wants. She forgave him once. That should be it. Or else you simply need to accept that he will cheat whenever he wants to,

Hi Jenna, I was on Staff @Portland Org for one year in 2005-6. I visited Hollywood during my training to become a Online Course Sup. I may have seen I you at times in different places or at least heard your name in passing among thr many condos I witnessed. I escapes from Scientology strategically and felt first hand the fear it instilled in me that I may never leave. But I did leave and took my life back. I too felt like I was in the know! Among dogs when I left, and it's been hard for me to integrate back into society even now in 2025. I will never be the same! Once Scientology brain washed me, I was never the same. And I will never be thr same. I have tried to learn to do my best to move forward and thrive every day, but I will always be a Scientologist deep inside. The training and the knowledge and the treatment i endured will always be a part of me now.

Jenna, so many of us have had similar experiences and I'm concerned that you are taking responsibility for someone else's bad behavior and for the consequences of their bad behaviors. There's a play called, "For Colored Girl who Have Considered Suicide /When the Rainbow is Enuf" and in it is a very powerful soliloquy by a woman whose abuser maintains a cycle of abuse followed by apologizing....and then followed by continued abuse. Only you can stop the abuse by stepping decisively away from the abuser. Please don't make excuses for him and take responsibility for his shortcomings. As to his "positive" traits, nearly every narcissist is also a "charmer" but that's what sets the trap for their victims. Please stay strong and stay away from this abusive relationship.

It’s in love that those of us who have been thru similar relationships - and are able to identify the modus operandi of dark-triad personalities - hope to assist Jenna with small deposits of knowledge that could inspire her to look into the topic herself. Love-bombing, charisma, hoovering, lack of empathy, devaluation, triangulation, are merely a few of the characteristics Aaron has exhibited. But they are enough to warrant Jenna becoming more aware of them in order to protect herself; being a highly empathic person.

@marthemorang4323:
Maybe you should go attack the real bully Nora. This is Jenna story and either way I will support Jenna the way she decides to deal with it. She wants to go after Aaron I will be her biggest champion. No one has the right to exploit her pain. Jenna your such a classy person.

Totally his defense is that he has a right to be unethical in private and that the people in his life that he abuses and mistreats have a responsibility to protect his image in public.
2025/01/15
@Love_Kuri:
@IngridKB she deserves respect and trying to help her see the truth that she already saw but was manipulated again to not see it - it is respect. And by the way narcissists always choose such a bright, strong, smart, empathetic people like Jenna.
2025/01/15
@Love_Kuri:
@JustAGrlAndHerCat nobody makes her sound like a weak child, it is hard to be with a narcissist and recognize it, they are perfect manipulators. Everybody here gives her credit, respects her and wants to help. By opposing this comments you are just siding with a narcissist and his agenda, unfortunately. Because it is him who wants her to think that what she says in this video is right. Everyone can have a lack of judgment when they are being manipulated, it is not weakness, it is how the brain works.

2025/01/15
@Love_Kuri:
@reneepolin6549 they don’t hate him, they see him for what he is and they respect Jenna. I don’t think what she said comes from integrity, it comes from being manipulated to feel that something is wrong with her, not him and like what they did was equal, which it wasn’t. Her psyche was just protecting her from abuse when she was yelling and stuff like that, so actually she cared about herself in this moments. I think she is an amazing person just in this cycle with narcissist, I recognize it very well.

@Diamondin_the_rough:
Aaron's hate against Nora is strong. I bet he said anything and everything to get you to make this. No one twisted your words. You brought up the warning his kids gave you, no one else. I truly hope you leave him behind and move forward with your life.

@sarcasticcatlady2036:
@IngridKB I spent 12 years with someone who did the same things and anyone who knows me would assure you I’m no wallflower. Anyone can be manipulated, that’s how intelligent people join cults of all kinds. If you care about someone, don’t turn a blind eye and ignore some red flags.

@TheWobblyQueen:
@PrairiePixie that his own doing though. When your publicly caught deceiving the people closest to you & it happens on multiple occasions the credibility is gone because the source is no longer trust worthy. Because if a man’s willing & able to lie manipulate to cheat for his own gratification, why should subscribers believe that he holds them with any less distain & that he’s not someone who would fabricate or spin content for clicks ????
2025/01/16
@TheWobblyQueen:
@lumenesque1 The fact is though that he’s only apologised after his sub count tanked by 8K is grim. If Jenna feels he’s truly remorseful and his apology was genuine that’s enough. Regardless of if he’s hovering or not and however people are worried about what goes on behind the screens theirs no speculation on that & she’s decided to engage in that conversation so however the chips fall from that is just what happens. But going forward wheather she cuts ties completely or however that relationship is viewed the apology will always be tainted because it’s been forced, & Jenna can only guess if doing the right thing came from genuine remorse or as a form damage control from financial loss.
2025/01/16
@TheWobblyQueen:
Jenna please know your not hurting Aaron. He’s apologised to you now you can accept that apology as a genuine remorseful act, however if you’ve agreed to take down the video under the premise of its effecting the GUIS revenue and by proxy effecting Aarons abilities to provide financially as a father, that fall off in subscription doesn’t hang on you.
It’s viewers loosing faith in the Aaron’s words because of his deception, his previous conduct, and him not acknowledge Rinders passing. Because regardless of any relationship with the deceased or yourself former Scientologists weather they liked or loathed Mike would want to at least be informed of the former OSA head & board member of Aftermath passing. He has failed in a duty of care to his viewers by allowing himself to be seen as an untrustworthy person.
Members of cos leaving are now in a position where family still involved can say that their source of information is untrustworthy ans they’d be right ! And this shouldn’t be the case.
Viewers can see a man who’s benefited from a woman by deceptive means. Intimately, In labour, and by taking time from her loved ones while also financially benefiting from broadcasting her cult trauma online.
We can see the parallels between his narcissistic behaviour and abuses carried out by COS
And though your concern & compassion for his finances is entirely valid and you may feel guilty.
Know that you gave your consent for your story to be broadcast by him in a professional context and you were that open and vulnerable to the camera because you had trust.
You did not consent for that video to be broadcast by someone who abused and violated your trust or your bodily autonomy.
He didn’t catalogue or remove your videos at the time of break up & continued to benefit from them financially knowing if you could turn back time, you would not necessarily said yes to an interview is you knew at the time of recording how the future would play out.
Their is no judgement, or malice in this post I just wanted to highlight aspects of Aarons channel failing you won’t have considered so you aren’t burdened and highlight the double standard at play here.
If at no point during your conversation were former collaborations brought up & what you wanted to happen with those videos ethically, Something’s still rotten. Because you are assuming fault for financial loss without acknowledgment of your part in the most rated content on the channel in your video.
An apology without reflection and change is hollow.
Wishing you all the best in health & healing xxx

@pyratellamarecordingstudio1062 last I recall she didn’t give him consent to fuck up her PH balance like I love how cheaters think they can classify harmful behavior jeopardizing mental and physical/sexual health as a character flaw instead of what it really is. Tell someone who can’t have healthy relationships anymore because of cheaters that it’s not sexual abuse. To be vulnerable with someone who is manipulating you is traumatizing. If you wana polygamy say that then is 2025 the fuck!!

I remembered telling my friends about the abuse so that I wouldn’t go back for accountability 💔

2025/01/15
@diane.loves.you.:
@MotherofRobert can you clarify? I'm not being sarcastic or rude but I genuinely don't know anyone who would take glee in her pain. There are many that may be happy that ASL was exposed for who he is, many people have come forward to expose his behavior but Jenna is known to the community, she is solid and credible. He is still manipulating her... a family and people who depend on him??? Seriously? Not her problem, he couldn't scare her into silence.
2025/01/15
@kaneykane3449:
@diane.loves.you. ah ok you're one of them. Doesn't matter what she says or clarifies you will be disappointed if it doesn't suit what you have decided happened.
2025/01/15
@diane.loves.you.:
@kaneykane3449 I'm one of them? Ballsy assumption, maybe I'm someone who has experienced this type of behavior before and can spot it a mile away. Clearly you haven't.
2025/01/15
@kat_k1027:
@diane.loves.you. I believe Jenna has shown time and time again that she can speak her truth all by herself. What you are describing as is a woman who can be manipulated, who exactly is trying to manipulate her now? SMH
2025/01/15
@diane.loves.you.:
@ It's ok, if you haven't experienced it you probably don't get it. Strength, education, upbringing, none of it matters when you're involved with a narcissist. I'm glad you haven't been through this, I know she will find her way.
2025/01/15
@kat_k1027:
@diane.loves.you. You’re assuming and you are mistaken! Although, I don’t look for understanding from people who want to talk down to me, tell me I should do things their way or make me out to be delusional, stupid or weak because I made an error in picking a significant other at a time in my life so said person can be a right fighter. Believe it or not we don’t always go back just because others have. I have confidence in Jenna, she is strong and will make the right decision for her and her babies!
2025/01/15
@diane.loves.you.:
@kat_k1027 I didn't talk down to you, I didn't tell you how to do things or that you're not smart and strong. I don't know you and I support people, I don't tear them down.
2025/01/15
@kaneykane3449:
@diane.loves.you. yes your telling Jenna what her relationship was like rather than believing her because it suits the story you want to tell. Very odd position to take. My personal life isnt your business so 🤫

@kaneykane3449 THIS! Thank you!
2025/01/15
@kaneykane3449:
@kat_k1027 it's so strange to watch people gaslight her by telling her shes great but sorry you don't know what your own relationship was like so I'm going to tell you, while accusing other people of being narcissistic (he may be but I'll chose to take Jennas version) or telling her shes betraying them. You can completely forgive someone & have empathy for what made them who they are but chose to have nothing to do with them ever again. Been there, done that.

2025/01/15
@kat_k1027:
@ I agree. Jenna is a grown ass woman who has plenty of intelligence and is perfectly capable of making decisions therefore if infuriates me to see people trying to gaslight and insinuate she is a weak, simple girl. I don’t see her and ASL rekindling their relationship but if they do, it’s their business and as I said before I trust that Jenna will do what is right for her and her kids with or without the peanut gallery giving their 2¢. The real question is will all of these new subs that are only here because they hate ASL and love to jump on a bandwagon, tear her down and tell her she is stupid because she didn’t do what the thought she should do? And don’t get me started on the creators (real great ‘friends) who waited all if 30 hot minutes to fire up a live and use her pain as a cash grab and to tear others down. I think that Jenna spoke her truth into existence very well!

My mother was in an abusive relationship. She never got out of the cycle of coercive control. Do not fall into that cycle again. However difficult, it may seem you absolutely have to move on. You must protect yourself. Think carefully about things. Narcissistic people are often manipulative. I have been permanently damaged by my past. Relationships are difficult for me, but I think time is a great healer. You are loved by your online supporters. You are stronger than you think from what I can see. True love will find you in the end...

@pumpkinspice2886:
Jenna, He knew he had a family to provide for before, during and after he cheated. No women should ever be forced in an open marriage so their sick pig man could get off. Heather probably wants a divorce and she will still get money and her children will finally have peace. He manipulated you, he used tears in combination with manipulation. He just doesn't want this out because he loses a lot of money due to his actions. Don't let him blame you.
2025/01/15
@Underabluesky:
Just stop. Now a video whining about why you were whining in the earlier videos? Really? Pick a reason your channel exists and stay there. Find a therapist. Have a conversation with them about your emotional immaturity and lack of self-control. Look, the guy you were dating was an asshole. Fine. Newsflash. He won't be the last. He may not even be the worst. If you keep turning your channel into Jenna's pity party roadshow, you are just going to have weirdos watching to see you suffer.
And forget any decent man showing up after. No one is going to take a chance on you if they know your "broadcast to the world" behaviour is a possibility.

Control is a crappy thing. I wish you could see, this is more about him saving himself, than his “feelings” for you. A narcissist cares about no one but themself. But the worst part of it is…your kids are seeing this. Your daughter will allow this treatment of herself. Right now the pain was bigger than you…but if you would have hung in there…you would have been bigger than the pain. Time. Time gives us answers we regularly ignore.

You don't need to apologize to your watchers! There are different phases of healing, and for everyone it looks different. I don't see anything you said in the first 2 videos that is different from what you are saying here, just a few weeks away from the rawness. In those videos you weren't mean, you stated what was happening and you were sad about it.
You have very little experience, and a lot of baggage. I do too. I've only been with one man, and that divorce was 22 years ago. There is another person who is still expecting me to apologize for things he did, but I have been through enough healing and counseling to know it wasn't my fault. It is for other reasons I haven't dated since then, but I know I will have a lot of issues if I ever get involved with someone again.
You are still healing from the divorce from the father of your children, and now this new situation. The only people you need to take care of right now are your kids and yourself, no one else.

@sarawithoutanh8302:
It takes an average of 7 times trying before leaving for good.
The cheating is not actually the concerning part in and of itself.
Hang in there. Protect yourself, your mind, and your heart.
Abusers aren’t monsters. There’s often reasons and trauma behind their abusive and controlling behavior. They’re flawed humans who need help. But that’s never a good enough reason to stick around. They have to truly and genuinely seak help and work hard on themself with a professional for years before they might be safe to have an intimate relationship with. Sometimes it’s best to love someone from afar.
Hang in there.

@RespectforGenuineReality:
So sad for you, Jenna. I couldn’t even watch the whole thing because it’s so sad to see you acquiescing to his abuse. Aaron is disgusting and has earned the disdain he’s getting. Nora is your champion. She is speaking truth to power and that’s the bane of any abuser’s existence. Please wake up again. You have our support. ❤

@Love_Kuri:
The only thing you are right about is that narcissists have a childhood trauma. They always feel deep down like they are not enough and feel deep shame. So they create this grandiose image, they don’t have empathy and thrive on hurting people who have it. But leave that to the professionals, not for the victim to understand and help the abuser. And as I understood he thinks he doesn’t need therapy, like most narcissists do, so he is untreatable. I hope with time you will stop making excuses for him and stop feel sorry for him and will see him as what he is, like I and millions of other people saw it in our narcissist exes.

@instahamx684:
When I used to watch the videos of you and Aaron I didn’t even realize you were together because you always looked so uncomfortable in the videos you were making with him, I was shocked that you were supposedly together in a romantic relationship with him during the making of those videos. You look like his hostage in those videos. When you said that he was a control freak and monitoring everything you said and criticizing everything you said then it suddenly made sense why you always looked so uncomfortable in those videos you made with him. He has you convinced that his image is more important than your feelings and you are putting his image before your feelings yet again for whatever reason. Aaron claims he has a right to be unethical in his personal relationships and has a right to keep that unethical behavior totally private from the rest of the world. He thinks it’s your responsibility to hide his unethical behavior from the world as long as he is making a living “doing the important work” of attacking a public organization for being unethical. Aaron is a fraud and now you are going out of your way to protect him which implicates you in his fraudulent and unethical conduct even further. Now you seem to think it’s your responsibility to make sure that no one has any idea that Aaron is an unethical individual in private and you are insinuating that people have the right to be unethical in private as long as the people they mistreat are willing to cover their asses for them while they are speaking to the world and attacking Scientology.

He is not triggered by everything someone else says the way like you do. It is just form of humiliation and control for him. Really, Jenna, please read about the narcissists or watch videos.
2025/01/15
@Love_Kuri:
Oh and IT WAS DONE INTENTIONALLY TO HURT YOU. They feel joy from hurting people and from controlling. And they always use the bad childhood card. A lot of people had tough childhood and they don’t do this shit. It is not an excuse. I understand you, I also was thinking like you.

@Love_Kuri:
He is just shifting responsibility for his actions. DONT BELIEVE ANYTHING HE SAYS OR SAID AND DONT ALLOW HIM TO MAKE YOU FEEL QUILTY. He is an abuser and a narcissist. That is so sad to watch, he clearly was manipulating you and is manipulating you now. NOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOU AND NEVER WAS, TRUST YOURSELF! Look clearly at what he did and is doing. Your yelling, hurting is just a response to abuse, it is normal, when you are constantly abused it WILL get out. He is abuser, not you, no, it is not equal what he did and what you did. Not even a little bit. Your psyche was protecting you. If he would treat you well, you would not do it. In my relationships with a narcissist I slapped him after 3 years of constant psychological abuse and he made me feel that I am an abuser and I felt so awful for years, trying to make up for it but after this he was in absolute control because of my guilt and nothing was enough for him and my life became an absolute hell. I thought I deserve it lol and I thought he is perfect. I understood that something is really wrong here only when he tried to kill me and cheated on me.He still positions himself as a victim like they always do :) And they always make you feel that something is wrong with you and the fault is on you. I am in a good healthy relationships now for 3 years and I never lashed out! I can’t even imagine slapping him or yelling at him or hurt him. Everything is fine with you! It is response to being treated badly! Sorry for long text, I just see in you myself 5 years ago.

@DianeJarest-z6d:
Don't blame yourself for his behavior. He's freaked out. He got so many negative responses to his "so called" apology, it freaked him out. People started unsubscribing to his channel in droves. I wouldn't trust him. But you do you.

STOP!!! You need to quit making excuses, stay away from him & just heal YOURSELF. Focus on loving yourself & your children.
2025/01/15
@TheyCallMeLadyLame:
I got the feeling when you’re comparing how he was/is to someone who does more extreme things to the person they’re with and I think that that’s a mad mindset to go down.. it gives room for you or others to discount the harm they caused you because there are worse things they could of done. If someone broke your leg and then told you it wasn’t that bad because they didn’t brake every bone in your body, just two in your leg, would that make you feel better about the fact they broke your bones for no reason other than they wanted to? You deserve happiness and absolutely don’t need to take care of his ego. You don’t have to speak badly about him but you don’t need to stick up for him either.
2025/01/15
@dsatt57:
None of us were there Jenna so you see things as they happened to you. But as someone who watched Aaron for a few years and then started watching him derail, I think you need to put some distance in this for your own sanity and safety. I don’t know if he’s having a mid-life crisis or what but in order for you and your family to not become another emotional casualty, I’d stay away from him for a while. Even now, as you say you have had time to decompress, but it’s only been a few weeks.
I don’t know either of you but as someone who has watched you both, as a third party who has no stake in what you do or don’t do, that seems the safest course for your family and yourself. Take a vacation from Aaron. If he moves on, then you will know your original instinct was right. FYI as someone who has lived for a while, your gut feeling is usually right once you learn to trust it. I know you have been programmed to trust in a system and in certain people from your earliest years. Trust yourself. You saw what you saw, heard what you heard and no amount of spin can change that. Also, you cant fix him. He has to change himself. So don’t even try. He’s not listening.

Omg the narcisstic piece of shit made you feel guilty, like they always do. I suggest to visit a therapist. You remind me of myself when I was in this cycle with a narcissist. I believe what you said in previous videos and his behavior was truly awful. “Amazing beautiful moments” is a lovebombing and sugar show that they do.
2025/01/15
@TheyCallMeLadyLame:
Jenna, you don’t need to tell us how there were good times but you only told us the bad stuff in your videos.. we know there must of been good times if you were with him as long as you were, but that doesn’t excuse the disrespect and dishonesty he’s shown you. You don’t need to justify your vids to anyone… if I had been you and made a video, I would have gone in so hard on him. You were quite respectful and balanced and I don’t think you owe him anything

@wldncrzy1971:
I’ve been there and know how this ends. I’ll be here when he hurts you again and you have to pick up your pieces that he leaves you in. I will not tell you not to go back, because I did. I will not tell you to never speak to him again, because I did. I did things I wasn’t supposed to do 6 times before he destroyed me for the very last time. So please do what you feel is ok—personally, I’ll be here when you decide he’s destroyed you for the last time. I’ll be here. Just be careful. It’s going to happen again.

@kiyaah1912:
Jenna you said in your first video you did t to not go back and let yourself bee fooled. Please go back to your first video and remind yourself why you did it.

@connollyclara:
Hey guys chill out! Jenna has taken nothing back, does not contradict what she says before, and simply says that she recovered empathy. That she took her videos down reflects her goodness ( though she does not forgive) and not coercion. Anyone who thinks otherwise ( without evidence) is simply malicious and Jenna doesn’t need that.
2025/01/15
@Love_Kuri:
It reflects his gaslighting and manipulation. People who dealt with people like him have a right to feel alarmed. Evidence lol. My narcissist ex also gaslighted me, manipulated me and abused me and there was no evidence, only my words. They are not stupid.

Live your truth Jenna and do what makes it so you feel you can sleep at night. As a man who has followed Aaron for a long time hes a disaster with woman.

On a side note, have you ever seen the movie "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore? There's a scene where Whoopi Goldberg tells Demi Moore's character "Molly, you in danger, girl" .. I believe that is fitting in this situation. You're in emotional danger. Protect yourself and your kids ✌️

@wandarose9285:
Your perspective was "skewed"?? And didn't take into account the "good times"?? You were living a LIE. He immediately tried to UNCLAIM you and your relationship. That says it all. Cheating IS VERY INTENTIONAL. He scoffed at your videos. Why are you making excuses for someone who needs help and refuses to get it? He's furious at the mere suggestion. Using the fact he has a family to support as the reason to remove your videos is very problematic because there's an element of manipulation and guilt there - and the fact he isn't yet divorced makes it difficult to know how supportive he is but... you yourself said money matters a great deal to him, and that's where you get his attention. You definitely got it. Very few ppl came looking to destroy anyone. They came to hold him accountable - truly accountable and to encourage him to stop the hurtful things he does. At the end of the day, had he behaved like a gentleman, none of this would or could have happened, and that lies squarely on his shoulders - not ppl with "agendas". I think you are a kind person and I think it's your best quality but also your worst. Screaming at someone can qualify as emotional, psychological, and verbal abuse. There doesn't need to be name-calling involved. You really should look into therapy so you can identify red flags and avoid toxic ppl. We tend to romanticize "lost" relationships over time and forget that even if good times outweigh the bad, the bad was so bad, that's why we're no longer in it. You were highly disrespected in the relationship, and just because there's trauma doesn't mean someone should or will go around hurting ppl. Plenty of traumatized ppl live decent lives and have good character. When you choose to repeat the bad behaviors over and over, that is a serious habitual problem. I wish you the best and hope you get some therapy to help you unpack and process what happened to you. Just my opinion.

@m_christine1070:
I think that this long distance relationship w Jenna and all that it entailed, was too much of a hassle for Aaron to deal with and he sabotaged it(prob subconsciously).

When you think about that loved one, please don't let any of the good times influence you into minimizing the bad times. What everyone is seeing, but you are not, is the result of your loved-one's behavior. What you may not understand yet, is that his predicament is the result of his own behavior and not the result of thoughtless action on your part.

I'm seriously more concerned for you now. You need to know that you're still in a very typical abusive cycle. Please, please, talk to an abuse counselor and begin to understand what abusive behavior is and what you need to do to completely get out of it. You're really very vulnerable to the person who has abused you. They may not be aware of what they are doing. However, backing up and putting their concerns before yours is not the healthy direction that you need to be going in. If anyone is close to this precious woman, 💜 please find a counselor that specializes in dealing with abusive relationships to help her. Denial of the degree to which she has been abused, along with making excuses for the situation is showing that she's still in the cycle of being abused.

Except the support you are getting. But don’t let anyone else get in your business. Other people’s opinions don’t matter. Ignore what outsiders say, they don’t live in your head unless you let them. You all had a very important time stolen from you and now have to navigate life as adults without that time of learning. Mistakes will happen in lots of ways, but that is part of the process of life. Give grace to yourself and others that are walking this path. And protect yourself from what you can. You are a warrior. You are full of empathy. Those things matter.

@Sarah-zi3jn:
Jenna, any backlash or strong emotions people are expressing are due to HIS behavior, not yours, and it’s a normal consequence. Don’t let him overpower you with guilt. He knows to do that because you are a good person and will take advantage of it. Your wellbeing should be the priority. Yes, you know what it’s like to grow up in a similar environment but do you go around abusing people? No, you don’t. Let him experience the consequences of his actions. You are not the one making the situation worse or causing harm. I speak from experience. I highly recommend shutting off communication with him entirely. You will likely gain a healthier perspective on this situation in time.

Jenna, I wish you the best in whatever you decide...however, you are NOT at fault. It's not your job to protect anyone else but you. That "anyone else" is perfectly capable of going & getting therapy if they wanted. They don't want to. You don't owe him any protection. If I were you, I would have left those videos up, but that is your call. Be well & focus on taking care of Y-O-U. P.S.: don't let anyone gaslight you into thinking your previous 2 videos that were removed were irrational. They were perfectly rational. And you didn't need to mention the parts of the relationship that were good. Don't let "someone" bully you into thinking that that is rational or needs to be done or that by omitting that then you misrepresented the relationship. I didn't go to a doctor for 98% of last year...until I got hit by a car, and THEN I DID!! You don't need to balance out the perspective of the relationship. We assume there were good times. But you weren't speaking of the good times, you were speaking of the broken trust. I never bring my car to the mechanic & tell them what is working fine. I tell them what ISN'T working. That's all that you did. And there's nothing wrong with that. Please stay away from communicating with Aaron for the next 6-12 months. That's the best course of action while you are healing. I'm sorry this happened to you.

@valhallamcgaughey3720:
He didn’t do it to hurt you. That’s true, because he doesn’t think of your feelings at all, whether to hurt you or make you happy. Your emotions are irrelevant to his decision-making. He apologized to get you to take down videos because the videos were hurting his channel. I’m sure some of the relationship was real, but also you know he had multiple relationships going at the same time that he never planned to tell you about. Don’t go back to that. I’m not saying this so that you stay mad or bitter, just remember the full reality of the situation. It’s like how some people think Scientology isn’t that bad because they see a few gains, but then after they find out what’s really been going on the whole time, they know it is bad.

Jenna- If you speaking the truth about his behavior, and that causes harm to his livelihood, then the problem is NOT with you speaking out, the problem is his behavior. What you are saying in this video is psychological manipulation. He is gaslighting you. Scientology trained him to be an abuser. Unless he has dug deep to work on that worldview, he is always going to be that person. This is not on you, this is on HIM. Don't let him abuse you further.

This is exactly why we love you and see you as a good person. Thank you for posting this and keeping us updated. I had a cheater ex (also ex sea org member with a high IQ, charming, very attractive and charasmatic) so I have a good idea of how this is likely to play out...In four months he will do it again, then when you see something happing in the moment he will then use this incident against you telling you that you still have not forgiven him for something done in the past. You will withdraw more and more and no longer have the courage to call him out and he will then start to openly do things knowing he can get away with it. Then after about 4-6 acts of betrayal or affairs...you will be so broken that you will not be able to stand the very sight of him. You will begin to feel physically ill in his presense and will not be able to get away from him fast enough. You will go online studying narcissistic abuse and finally start to connect every little dot like, the fact that he constantly walked ahead of you, the fact that he never held your hand in public, the fact that he would suddenly turn cold in the bed room, the fact that he barely took you out on dates or romantic getaways, the fact that he always manages to ruin special occasions, the fact that he does not openly claim you online. Mine told me (words) that he loved me every day, but never showed me in terms of quality time spent. I almost died due to malnutrition and medical neglect thanks to him. I am still trying to recover. He abandoned me in my illness. I have lost everything. Unfortunately a person has to go through and experience this to finally see the truth of who they were actually dealing with. And when you do we will still be here to support you.

@reganmac5998:
He cheated on you, he cheated on his wife the mother of his kids and if you believe once spec of the sob story he’s telling you about her that’s exactly how he’s going to treat you when he sucks you dry. There is no redeemable qualities in cheaters. Drugs and alcohol are not an excuse. I was married to my best friend for 20 years who treated me in the end just like he treated me when he was an active addiction but he’s sober. It was only after the devalue and discard did I really understand the damage he did to me and that I was in a psychologically, emotionally abusive marriage taking on all the work, blame, till I was a shell and he built himself a perfect excuse to cheat. Instead of being there for me like I was for him he threw me away like garbage. Cheating is the most disgusting disrespectful thinking you can do to somebody you say you love, if you love somebody like for real, you would never hurt them like that It’s like annihilating you from the inside out. You deserve so much better. This might be confusing and hurt right now but save yourself, get out now he’s so gross.

@AA-lq5pu:
Amen, people need to understand and I think most do. They will leave you a shell of your former selves. All your light, beauty, enthusiasm will be taken from you. It is literally soul destroying and they need to get out before its too late. Its not like a normal break-up wherein you recover after a few months. It leaves you devastated for years and you may never fully recover. They only get worse and they become more open about their behaviours too after you have forgiven them.
2025/01/16
@reganmac5998:
@ exactly, well said, sums it up perfectly! It’s really hard to understand somebody you’ve known and loved for so long can and did fake who they are to get what they want from you. When I found out he was cheating that’s when the real him showed up the lying, cheating, abusive user

@reganmac5998 I totally understand, when the monster rears its ugly head and you can never unsee it. You stand there I shock thinking....who is this person....I dont even know who this person is.

Oh Jenna, you're such a sweet soul 💖 you know, even if someone doesn't "know what a healthy relationship looks like" they FOR SURE know that cheating is wrong. And he cheated and lied and distespected you repeatedly. If you really love somebody you wouldn't do those things. It's nice that he apologized but words have to be followed by actions. And the fact that you yelled too, look up "reactive abuse". It's NOT your fault. Sending you a big hug 💕

Jenna never said she was going back to Aaron ... she's just clarifying some of the things others have taken & made their own videos on trying to get back at Aaron for their own issues with him. I'm not saying what he did was OK or even forgivable. I trust that Jenna is taking this whole situation seriously. She is hurting & trying to get thru this with compassion ... that's the kind of person she is. I understand that many people have gone thru abusive situations & really related to Jenna's videos, but this is her battle & I don't believe that she is going to jump back in a relationship with Aaron. Give her support, time & space. She will come out stronger! We got you, Jenna!!

@mayeliz:
Dear Jenna. When you trivialize, indulge or forgive a narc, you just tell him that what he has done to you (and several others) is ok and all right. The only sensible thing you can do is get away from him as fast as you can - and stay away forever. Don't let him get the opportunity to contact you, block all channels for him. He will do it again, and again as long as you stay in contact with him.

I wish my second post that was more specifically aimed at Aaron where I suggested and stated why imho he should make public apologies , had not been taken down. Until he does the people that took a strong stand for you will continue to look at him as an abuser .

@libbyfransen7053:
You do you Jenna. As a survivor of narcissistic abuse it takes time to heal. The cult of Scientology has many traits of this behavior and unfortunately so does Aaron so it makes sense why you were drawn to him. Dr.Ramani or Tamie M. Joyce on YouTube are great content creators who discuss narcissistic traits, how to see and understand it. They also help you with dealing with them. I hope you focus on your own self ! Mental health is very critical to our lives. You deserve great joy and happiness in this life. Sending much love to you. ❤

As someone who was raised in a cult before, you will be prone to joining cults for the rest of your life. I know this because I am too.
You can be in a one person cult in a personal relationship. Please be aware of this. The brainwashing, abuse, manipulation, gaslighting, is all familiar to you from Scientology. Even though it’s awful, it subconsciously feels like home.
I hope that you are not in a one person cult, and I’m not saying this in a condescending way, but I hope that you are in therapy. They can help you determine if your relationship is abusive through an objective lens.

You left Scientology to have your own kids and a healthy family. This man is not good for your family. He disrespected his wife and daughters, he still does. His own kids gave that testimony. Why would he treat you and your kids better than how his treats his own? Whoever spoke to you defending him is for sure being manipulated by him to make you feel guilty. Please remember how strong you are. You are valuable, your feelings matter. Your sense of self preservation is was not wrong, it’s what saved you from Scientology. We are rooting for you!

You arent wrong you are learning extremely important lessons that most learn early on but growing up in such a fashion severely stunts our emotional growth and the same does indeed apply to Aaron. Like i commented on his channel im sypporting the work and not him specifically as well as how i felt he failed his audience. Less so in his actions towards you leafing to this but in his response to the community and you afterwards bothered me. To hear he apologized to you gives me hope for him though and your approach in this video really impressed me. God bless you and jeep inspiring people in life and here on YouTube.

It's being said in the comments already, but I want to echo that you deserve better, full stop. As two people who have left a cult, I completely understand your desire to hold on to a relationship that has felt validating in those experiences while trying to rebuild your life outside of it. But, sometimes those same people can't or refuse to see the harm they are causing - and that's on them, not you. You have a huge community surrounding you in your journey - you don't need someone who is so disrespectful to you and your growth. I hope that if you feel the need to forgive for yourself, that when that time comes you will not let this person back in your life and you can move on. Sending you lots of strength!

@jackandlill:
There's a reason the saying "time heals all wounds" exists - bcse it does & human beings are built to be adaptable in order to move forward. However, you must also remember that a "leopard doesn't change it's spots". You must look at patterns. This man has patterns of bad behavior in relationships of all types - but in particular w/women. That's not to say that people can't change, can't see the error of their ways & work to improve themselves. But that does not happen quickly!! A few good, remorseful conversations does NOT change in behavior make! So, I hope you can love yourself enough to keep boundaries when someone tells you they are going to do better, when they apologize & are good with words from a lifetime of being taught in the COS how to grift w/the best of them. Those behaviors do not just disappear w/out willingness, a LOT of hard work & TIME. Please, consider ulterior motives, be as wise as you can be and stay safe. Also, it sounds like the lashing out, raising of voices etc. were reactions to behaviors & not Your behaviors. Your right - no one is perfect. And it's always good to take responsibility for our part - but don't let that be misconstrued w/you or your actions being the reasons for the major issues the two of you have had.

There is a huge difference between love and being in love. It’s been 1 year and a bit. That’s a pretty short timeframe for so much hurt. Love is tender, it goes deep, it’s honest and good, it’s compassionate and respectful. It’s friendship in the truest form. It supports, it listens, it reflects. It grows. He cheated on you 3 times if not more in the first year alone. Where were his feelings for you in those moments? Where was the friendship, the respect? Where was the love then? 1 year…your insecurities and fears mixed with hormones makes you an addict. It’s no more than that really. Don’t let anyone treat you that way. Ever.
2025/01/15
@spongebobsqueeze:
I am glad to see you are feeling better. I am a firm believer that good romantic relationships start with good long friendships. Also it is important when a romantic relationship bites the dust you should take a while and figure out what went wrong and it looks like you are beginning to do that. Scientology does not foster good relationships. It makes people secretive, and forces people who do not know each other into relationships and then tears them apart. A couple relationship is just a good lifelong friendship with romance. You should not expect anything more from your friend. It takes a long time to understand and deal with childhood trauma. So cut yourself some slack. You are a good person and if people cant see that, you don’t need them around. We all do our best for the people we love and sometimes our best is not what we hoped it would be.❤

@thirtynine3955:
Jenna, whatever you decide to do is ypur decision alone. I would never deem myself an expert to offer any relationship advice as all my relationships have ended badly...some because of me, some because of others. I will offer just one piece of advice. Do not blame yourself for what someone else has done. Yes, you and others fron the cult have had a "stunted growth" regarding emotions and how to deal with them. BUT, there are somethings that you just know. For example, you don't sleep with other people if you are in a relationship with someone you claim to love. That's not because of childhood trauma, that's because you're a thoughtless, inconsiderate a**hole. If you think this person is 'the one' and you believe you can live with this hanging over you...then it's your life and your choice. Just remember, he's shown you who he is. You should believe him. Good luck

I thought your videos were powerful. Encouraging to all women being treated poorly. I didnt have the feeling of you bashing a guy just out of anger. It was a valid situation to adress. And no matter how much he apologized, he did treat you poorly! He made you question yourself! He made you cry and feel deperate for approval and answers… You are a strong woman, but consider one thing.. If a person makes you feel so bad about yourself to a point that eventhough he was horrible, you consider looking away from the horrible way he treated you (and what you shared was pretty severe from my stand of view), then he for sure knows how to play you well on their chestboard. A really genuine person would open up remorsefully about the mistakes and help you heal with him, not scream at you and lie… You can gladly be friends with him, but keep him on distance because, let me tell you this.. I come from exact relationships where I was treated poorly and I was promised to do better and it kept repeating itself.. They dont change over night. Never. So please keep the distance for yourself on self worth. ❤

Being friend with a narcissist? You are on a whole new level of personal imprisonment.
2025/01/15
@stephaniet1836:
@user-vy5uy9fo8p Look, sometimes its hard to keep a distance. For her he is still important. 🤷🏻♀️ And telling her to kick him far away out of her life is not fair since its my opinion only, but at the end her life decision. Its ok to be friends, but of course with a emotional distance. Its possible as far as she is willing to remember what he did. But you are right.. Its not smart if you are emotionally attached and believe every word he says and allow yourself to be pulled back into his game again. I personally would also run far far away from him, but I do understand how it feels if it doesnt feel possible to do so. She is smart, it might take her a couple hits but at the end she will get there. And she has a whole community pointing her in the right direction. ❤️

I will pray that you’re able to get into counseling and work on yourself. You need to heal heart, mind and soul before you start living your best life. For both you and your children. The children need the best version of their Mom to guide them through life.

@openmyeyes67:
Here's the thing: You have to look at the WHOLE of the other's behavior. You really do know the answer. Would you want YOUR daughter to experience the same kind of love/relationship? When he screams at her, ignores her needs/feelings, will you tell her a relationship is work at times? Only you know the answer. Being honest with yourself about the last question will give you your truth. Don't expect your love and empathy to disappear if you leave the situation. It's your head you need to listen to. Replacing yourself in the scenario with your children or other trusted loved ones will help clear your mind. Tell your heart it's not it's time to rule on this one.

No need to apologise we are here for you we can still watch aaron being upset will him and In the same time understand where is coming from. Don't worry he will get back the suscribers he lost.

But please never stop yourself from talking to us that is what is being part of a community. You are allowed to express your pain. And we are not idiots so for the people who did leave Aaron Chanel it's to show him he needs to take better care of himself they will come back. The other well they should not have been there in a first place. Be yourself and take the time to heal.your heart the first true love is the best and the worst as it's so intense. Don't apologise 🙏❤

I just hope that if you decide to go back you make some kind of counseling or therapy a stipulation.

This is a real mind game and real problem this can be overcome with simple truth and good examples of a moral compass in ones actions this a shame that you have been exposed to to mind game Scientology and arweness with truthful actions from all sides can help you all to step out of this scientology mind game ane mess up it might take time but you can win with simple powerful truth as a uprooting guide. This is what I have understood after having done some some Scientology and leaving and not going back.

This is an incredibly sad video Jenna. You poured your heart out to your viewers and we believed what you said. Did you lie about Aaron, did you embellish his faults to look much worse? Or has he manipulated you to step down from what you said. Whichever way it is this is very, very sad. I hope you are still walking away from this relationship Jenna. Maintain your dignity and eventually you will heal and learn that your happiness, and the happiness of your children is more important. X

@snakepit101:
The red flags from your earlier videos have echoed through my head ever since. "That is when the yelling would start" was a significant one when you perhaps suggested he come visit you. Just the fact he would choose to spend time with HER instead of you. Do your thing girl and don't be scured. But you deserve to be the queen to your king, not some side-bitch. This youtube fame crap is seriously so weird with people getting popular, clicks and letting people into their personal lives. When he does it again, I hope you choose your next man as someone who doesn't know anything about Scientology, and that you can expand in that direction. You don't owe any apologies and it hurts to see you make them. Hubbard's imposed liability formula is still swirling around in your head as some submissive action you need to take. Shake those old ideas off. Aaron has unmistakable charisma that he is blessed with, and it hypnotizes people just like Hubbard did.
2025/01/15
@lafken2:
What I'm getting here is someone made serious threats to this guy and/or his family? It wouldn't surprise me, since the internet is a wild place, but I completely get why you wouldn't want to be in any way related to it. Being a public figure is messy like that. You never encouraged any such behavior, you never called for anyone to do anything but listen to you. But people will react as they do, regardless of what you may want, and it can get out of hand. That's what I understood from this video, at least. If I'm right, I get it. I didn't get the feeling that you're taking him back, as some people seem to think, but honestly that's none of my business. I do think it would be a bad idea, but ultimately it's your choice. Whatever you do, do it for yourself and your family, first and foremost - including taking down videos if you want. Take care, now and always.

@everythingiwishihadknown880:
The way you feel in this relationship is not how you're supposed to feel. A good relationship is easy, calm and feels like home. He should be your safe place, but instead hes creating the storm. Your reactions to him are perfectly normal. Now you just need to learn to trust your gut.

@happytrails699:
Jenna, really appreciate you taking those posts down. I like both you and Aaron's content. When I was in college, I dated a controlling narcissist, who cheated on me constantly, played with my mind by tearing me down, and even purposely tripped me once and laughed. Thankfully we were not married, I did not rely on him for my survival, and I had no children with him. Literally I had no ties to him. I could have walked away easily. I was the one who kept going back and for that, I could truly smack myself for being so stupid. But even with everything that went down, I don't feel he should be punished by losing his job over it. I was partially to blame because I did not walk away after the first episode of cheating.
2025/01/16
@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
I strongly disagree with what you said about losing his job. Jenna shouldn't have to cover up what she's been through in order to protect his channel. He shouldn't have been carrying on multiple relationships while still being married, covering up those relationships by playing the women against each other, not to mention the abuse of screaming at them, gaslighting them, etc. He is at fault. If he wants to protect his channel, he shouldn't be a narcissistic abuser of women. No one needs to look out for this horrible excuse of a man and father. We should never turn our back to abuse or it will continue unchecked. If ASL's channel crashes, he has no one to blame but himself. Jenna is far from the first person to speak out and her story is pretty much the same as we have heard from his previous victims. I hope Jenna puts her videos back, but of course that's her call. Everyone should be warned. Those that are speaking out against abuse are my heroes.
2025/01/16
@_Show_Me_Your_Kitties:
Also, you were not stupid for not recognizing the abuse and going back to the narc/cheater. Almost no one sees it until it has continued for a long time. The stat I've been seeing is it takes leaving an average of 7 times before you figure it out and don't go back. Give yourself some grace. You were a victim and narcissists are very good at what they do. Victims don't deserve blame, and that includes you. The lovebombing and hoovering is extremely convincing.
2025/01/16
@kreuz7sieben:
I always thought Aaron looks like an asshole. There's a lot of red flags, like the podcasts she chooses to go on. I'm sure you're not flawless, but you have to find someone who can accept that and doesn't escalate it. That's toxic. Sometimes people just don't belong together and it's nobodies fault. I hope you can move on from all the crap and live your new life more free. Truth makes you free.

Take care of yourself. Your response reminds me of the way I thought when living in an abusive marriage. You may not be ready yet. It takes a lot of time and a lot of times through the abuse cycle before leaving. It took me 10 years. My advice to you is to keep educating yourself and maybe get an external therapist to give you a solid outside perspective and ways to nagivate through the relationship and possibly one day out of the relationship if it doesn't serve you. The outside support really helps you keep perspective. Much love to you and wishing you all strength and goodness for you and your life. You deserve a healthy supportive relationship ❤

@BettysBoxWhine:
A lot of people including myself could relate to your raw, unedited truth, and bravery in the 2 videos that you deleted. This awkward new video blaming yourself to defend the indefensible is sad. The next time this happens with this narcissist (it’s only a matter of time, love bombing has a very short shelf life), I suggest you get professional help. I agree if you expect people to support this textbook example of emotional abuse and they don’t, they need to move on and not support your channel! Hopefully, at some point you will escape having a cult-abused mentality and know your worth. It won't happen with ASL in your ear.

@KarmenMartz:
Having a horrible childhood with no role models for what a healthy relationship looks like is valid.

Jenna, he really is kind of a mess morally. He has to know that his wife Heather was devastated by the other women he was having sex with. “Open marriage“ my foot. You were probably more important than many of the others, but he still wasn’t honest with you either. It’s also that his behavior is kind of sleazy. There’s so many instances where the ick factor is so high it’s hard look. I hope you can cut bait and move on! 🙏

@CLE-EA:
This is so sad to watch.
You don’t have to talk about him in videos if that makes you feel like you’re not hurting him (you weren’t hurting him. His own actions hurt him) ok so that’s fine. But just know you can’t be friends with him. Don’t let him manipulate you into “let’s still be friends” - he’s just trying to get a foot in the door. He’s already begun the process. You may think your relationship is unique but unfortunately it is textbook. All the people in your comments who are telling you that know this from hard lived experience. We can’t see it until we have gotten some time and space from the situation. So please take the time and space you need.

@BettysBoxWhine:
I want to add the videos you deleted didn't “bust’ Aaron or tell anything that everyone didn't already know. The videos were about strength, standing up against bad behavior, and having a strong voice that resonated with people who have been on the same roller coaster. Think about what kind of a role model you want to be to the younger generation. Ignorance is bliss but knowing is better!

Oh Jenna I am so sad to see this. You will NOT want to hear this but this is virtually textbook. This is what they do. They make you pity them. They guilt you. Please, I beg, that if you dont want to listen to all of us that you at least look up what narcissists do. See for yourself. And cheaters as well. Combine the 2 and there is his picture. I dont want you to ever have to look up victim and see yours. He NEEDS to be outted for who he is. It MATTERS. What about the women who come after you? Dont they matter? Because there WILL be other women. There always are. At the VERY least please dont ever trust him again. Im quite sure that most of us are telling you this and some part of you is saying hes different. We dont understand what hes really like. I beg you to consider how little YOU actualy know him. Listen to him even. Hes vile. And then he acts like a victim. I wont say more because if your not hearing us yet then chances are you wont. I hope to god im wrong. But i swear i see the writing on the wall because, I and so many others, have lived it. Aaron is no different and once you truly get away from them its so obvious. But when your still in it, you WANT to believe. You dont want to be the stupid woman who fell for a man like that.

Toxic relationships use the same mental manipulation as cults do. Yes, of course, hurt people hurt people. But there's no excuse for it.
"Sorry" doesnt make someone safe to be in your life. I support a public truce, but stop saying you did something wrong. Honestly it could hurt other people he has hurt.

I can understand why you took them down. You were having an emotional moment and the internet is forever. I unsubbed from Aaron because he has been the center of a lot of messy drama. For me, you were the straw that broke the camels back. It is good he apologized, and I hope he learns to do better for himself and his family. I hope you dont let him mistreat you anymore and find a healthy relationship with someone that you can resolve conflict with in a positive way and will be faithful to you. I think he has a self-destructive streak in him and I hope he finds someone he can confide in to help him learn to manage that. Men are able to understand each other and hold each other accountable in ways that women are simply incapable of doing for the men in their lives. Be safe mentally and physically.

Hey Jenna, when you made your videos, my heart broke for you. I’ve been cheated on and I know what the hurt feels like.
However, I did not unfollow either of you, but I did turn off notifications from his channel (his was only one of the few I had notifications set up on).
I can’t watch much of his videos because I feel he needs help. He’s always said he does need it, but after being in a cult for so many years, how can you survive life in the real world without some help.
Anyway, I’m keeping good thoughts for you and glad to see you are healing after this. You are a strong woman and I wish you all the best and stay strong. 💪 ❤

@86DOA:
Aaron would have insisted that you take down those videos telling the truth about him. Him and his mods remove every single negative comment about him even when it truthful.from his channel. Aaron can not handle the truth. He can not handle any negative comments. You taking down your truth about him, is proving that he still has power over you, and he is still manipulating you. This action shows how controlling a person like him is. Streets was right, to wash his hands of you and Aaron. He said posting your sex life love life, and relationships break ups on yt is the actions of a 25 year old. Streets said all of you Ex scientologist are crazzy and carry on as if you are still in thr cult. You taking down your video, is not going to help Aaron win back the thousands of "real subscribers" but it will lose heaps of yours. Aaron will show you how to buy batches of subscribers to replace the ones you lose, just like he did, but those bought ones are not real, they are bots, that can not send stickers, super chats or any form of money.The bought subscribers are empty shells, that can not really replace the real human subscribers that he lost, and you are going to lose, Just remember, next time Aaron does this again to you, nobody will listen to you, or stick up for you, because it is like the boy thst cried Wolf, You have just played into Arrons hands and cut yourself off from everyone, just like his wife has been cut off from everyone. Taking down your videos has let down bundreds of victims, but more importantly you have let yourself down, As someone that deals with victims of domestic violence, manipulation and control on multiple levels, ,Ike emotional, sexual, financial, social, etc, I am very disappointed in this, not because of the harm this does to others, but the harm it will do to you. Nobody knows what part of your videos were real now. Did Aarons kids warn your kids about him.? Did Aaron have sex with other women whilst telling you, you are the only one? ( whilst still married to his wife) Did Aaron have sex with someone else, who he told that you abd him are no longer together? What is, and what isn't true ?

@MagickCat861:
Jenna, I had never seen your videos or your face until you posted the first video. I then went and had a look at some of your other videos and I could see and hear the complete difference in you in the videos you have now removed. I could see your pain, your grief, your heartbreak and your trauma, and I could see that the video was you trying to process some of that and not out of malicious or divisive intent. Please please do not invalidate yourself or your feelings. There being good in a relationship or someone doesnt cancel out the bad. Often if there is love-bombing that makes us fall back in love again on those love chemicals and then we downplay the bad that has happened, but the love-bombing always comes to an end and the abuse cycle will be back. These up and down cycles can really mess with our heads and create trauma bonds when the good is good you're on top of the world, but when its bad it is so painful and heartbreaking. You can acknowledge that there were good, but dont let it make you dismiss the bad or downplay it. It was very kind of you to take the videos down but I do really hope that you are not continuing the relationship or contact now. You say that other people may be twisting things, I share from lived experience. Not exactly the same type of scenario you are going through but I can see the cycle and I know it well. Myself and other commenters can see it more clearly than someone who is in it. I truly hope that you do go no contact and give yourself all the time you need to process this. Document everything so that you can keep track of things that can show you perhaps a pattern of how things went with you both.. Again, please, please do not invalidate how you were and are feeling. Life is too short to waste time on those that mess with our heads, maybe in time you will see. Wishing the best for you!

Jenna,you deserve better and please take time to heal and don’t let him fool you. With love ,would you want your daughter to be with a man like him.x

@SamanthaPajor:
The problem in your relationship was not that there were feelings of anger and raised voices. Occasional feelings of anger happen for everyone, and therefore they show up from time to time, even in truly healthy relationships. (Part of what makes those relationships healthy is how the partners deal with those feelings.) So again, the presence of anger wasn't the problem. The abuse was the problem. There has been no indication that any of your actions, even in moments of anger, were abusive toward your partner. There have, however, been many indications that your partner was abusive to you. Abuse is never justified. Abuse is never deserved.

Empower Yourself With Knowledge Jenna. Look into NPD & NPD trauma/abuse victims. Under Narcissistic Personality Disorder you'll see a description of him & the cycle of abuse with a malignant narcissist & under the latter, you'll read about what you're feeling & living. I really hope you empower yourself & talk to a Specialist. You're kids are going thru this too. Js.

When I divorced after 21 years of marriage, it was so important for me to acknowledge my part in the demise of it. It takes two to make it work and two to end it. It doesn’t justify what he did. This past December, 11 years later, at my daughter’s wedding, he apologized again. I still teared up. So did he. I hope you both find peace.

@loveandgutstv:
Jenna you were strong in your conviction in the first video. That was because you let your gut reaction guide you. You knew in that moment you didn’t want to go back. You knew what was happening to you was wrong. Don’t second guess that. Abusers notoriously gaslight victims into second guessing themselves. And then they stay in an abusive cycle.

@texasgina:
You need to read up on abusive cycles and look up the “honeymoon phase”. Whenever abusers lose control of you, they beg you back and apologize and make promises and put you through the honeymoon phase and then once they’ve got you back in their grip they start the abuse all over again. He’s obviously a serial cheater. He’s not gonna stop he’s a liar and he’s Verbally abusive! Please love yourself and your kids more than accepting horrible behavior! Show your children not to choose someone like him and not to be like him. Your children model after their parents. Do you want your daughter marrying someone like that? Do you want your son treating a woman like that? No! Move on, block him from every social media and block his number on your phone and delete his phone number.

Remember also, the cheating, the lying, the disrespect, the pain.
Perhaps his behaviour can be attributed to growing up the way he did. That doesn't mean he gets a free pass - he gets the opportunity to learn, grow, and change. You do not have to be the one he makes his mistakes with.

It is ok to say, ‘yup, I coulda done better in that situation, but I DID NOT deserve what happened’! Because we don’t.
Me and hubby have been through shit, we have a few good years and then a few horrible years, but he still treats me like his Queen and I still treat him as my King, we still come together, and in our space we are safe, we are happy, we are loved, we are solid. And that is what a partner-relationship SHOULD be.
We have a different beginning to some, 9yrs are best friends, in different relationships. But we are STILL best friends! We barely argue, cos it’s each other we wanna talk it through with. And it’s not just us, I know my parents became best friends after their romantic relationship started.
Please, please, PLEASE (!), remember you are worthy, you deserve to be loved and treated how you love and treat the other person. And don’t invalidate your feelings cos you shouted back or got to the end of your rope, cos that person is the one who SHOULD be the one you can offload to, shout it out to, share your burdens with, are be heard WITHOUT PREJUDICE!!!
Sorry for the ‘shouting’ bits, that’s where my emphasis would be if I had spoken!! It doesn’t help I’m west coast Scottish, we are good at “emphasis” lol!!!

He did it in his relationships with you and others, and his viewers.
Honestly I thought about it and my feelings about watching the videos. When I sat and really thought about it, I realized that he is constantly rude and berating other people. Behind the scenes and then it gets to a boiling point and we get a small glimpse in front of the camera. But that small glimpse made me wonder about what was not seen. It also made me wonder if the behavior was any better than the people he talked about on his channel?
That’s where I’m really sitting and struggling. Just because someone is out, doesn’t mean the behaviors they were taught are gone. This just finished opening my eyes to something I was starting to question.

Mustard have put in years of work (and art) and seem the most healed & stable. And when you get down lady, CREATE something.

The one thing I have noticed about cheating in a relationships is that they will ALWAYS cheat on you again and again. Maybe in a different relationship they won't cheat, but once happens in your relationship, there is no repairing it.
(Good for you if you have a unicorn relationship that somehow got a cheater to stop but for most of us, it doesnt happen. The cheater waits 5 yrs? 10? A month??? ...Whenever they feel comfortable to cheat again...) Point is, ditch him. You don't have anything you need to repair between you two. Cheaters are never worth the heartache. Pick someone who always picks you first.

Only YOU can decide what is best for you. YOU are the only one who has all the information to make those decisions. I don't love the hundreds of comments telling you not to take him back, none of us truly know what you're going through. Yes, we may all have similar experiences, but no 2 circumstances are exactly the same. The absolute last thing you need is a bunch of pressure from anyone at all or made to feel naive.
You are truly a genuinely sweet and beautiful spirit. Thank you for sharing it with us. I hope that everyone, both close to you and distant, treats you with the respect you deserve. You don't owe us an apology.
Forgiveness is ultimately about self care. Allow yourself to feel all of your feelings, process all the thoughts. When/if you are ready, you can decide to let go and move on unburdened by that pain. It is never something you owe anyone.
Sending loving healing vibes. Take care of you. Bake some bread, take a bubble bath, do the things that reconnect yourself with the present. Listen to your own voice. Love yourself. Forgive yourself.
Thank you again for making this video.

As far as his family goes, it is HIS responsibility as a man to behave in a manner that is honorable to his family. It is NOT everyone else’s responsibility to keep his secrets or make excuses for his behavior! I understand taking your video down for your own peace of mind. If they served their purpose and YOU no longer want it on your channel anymore I totally get behind that. Someone who treasures someone else will not do something to risk loosing their treasure.

@FUNKY_BUTTLOVIN:
Sure, he isn't INTENTIONALLY hurting you or any of the other women that he has just been terrible to... i.e., all of them.
The good he has done has probably not exceeded the bad, and it's just... right? It is NOT unforgivable. It isn't worth hating him over, I don't think he is fundamentally bad, etc etc etc
But he is just far too flippant in doing this extensive damage to people and their lives, groups, entire communities, non-profits that did nothing but good, up until that moment they made the mistake of allowing him on the board.
I do get that so much of it is truly down to not knowing better, being immature, and not having been given an environment in which normal psychosocial development would ever have been possible... and coming from an environment, a culture where people are disgustingly adversarial towards one another, not yet having learned that this is something that truly just has no place in the world, that this is something that needs to be abandoned entirely .
There was a lot of real damage done though, and I know I personally felt lied to, like, Leah and Mike positioned as these villains, then after many months, I think maybe even a couple years, this trickle trickle of information turns into the dam breaking, the realization that he truly was a pretty extreme problem above all else, that he was doing things anyone in his position should never, ever even consider doing, causing real harm to vulnerable people, and wrecking the group that existed only to help such people, out of ego, and just hating them for daring have these very low standards for him... please don't prey on desperate, broke, vulnerable women who are coming here, begging us, via you, for help in the crises they are facing.
You saying your piece was truly important and valuable because Aaron HAD TO be given a wake up call, he needed to realize, he WAS position ing himself as the bad guy and the ruiner, undo-ing all the good that so many were slaving away, trying to accomplish.
I haven't tracked the community response to all this because I honestly, just removed myself from this space entirely, once I realized the extent of Aaron's misrepresentation of the basic facts, I felt ashamed of how I was publicly cursing Mike and Leah and Aftermath, when all they ever did, was say, we can't allow for someone we've imbued with power and authority here, to prey on vulnerable women that come to us for help.
I truly hope Aaron has grown and done a ton of soul-searching, I hope he understands just how destructive he has been, I hope he has the capacity to grow and see that the trust that others give you is a sacred commitment and you are failing all that is good when you blow all that off, all for physical pleasures.
This seems to be a real problem with Scientologist men and this DJ Donkeypunch type behavior, it's got to go, it is , it must be, a complete blindspot for him, effects the cult had on his soul that he hasn't been able to tease out and recognize as absolutely terrible traits that he should buckle down and settle for nothing lesss, than figuring out how to entirely obliterate from himself.
Anyway I don't want to talk in circles, but I had so much respect for Aaron and what he does, and HE singlehandedly ruined that. Every bit of it.
I truly hope he does a great deal of soul searching and thinking about what matters, and what doesn't matter, in this life.
If you are a good man, save for all that sexual predation you've done, you're not a good man. If you are ruining people and destroying groups that do good work for vulnerable people in crisis, only because they're demanding you be better than absolutely terrible, that's sociopathic, it's sick.
These are hard words but, they have to be spoken. I earnestly hope he can grow and become a man.

Being decent to other people, not being evil to people, these are some of the only things that actually really matter in life. Failing in these ways, ARE failing entirely at life, it makes you less than a man, it makes you truly undeserving of love, period.
How we feel about people is complex, and it doesn't make sense. But I do hope Jenna can see that these are not normal, understandable failings. Forgive him if you want, but anyone who treats ANYBODY as he treats so many people, is not someone you should waste ANY time on or with, not someone you should subject yourself to, not someone you should make the mistake of assuming has the potential to be better.
Does Aaron deserve love? I think that's the wrong question. I don't see any evidence to suggest he is capable of experiencing love. This is so much deeper than just some issue of having been failed and improperly socialized, down to being raised in the cult. These are deeper issues, there is something dramatically wrong with him, and he needs to be alone and work on himself, alone, in hope he might, at some distant point in the future, be worthy of love.
Until then.... Jenna is a beautiful woman with rare depth and intelligence and empathy... Where Aaron is just, so grossly lacking in the soul department, there's nothing there to build on, no reason at all to suspect that there's the capacity or will stirring in him, to ever become a worthwhile human being, let alone a good partner, father, everything else she should want, demand, and she deserves.
Thank you so much Jenna for saying what you did, and please, know that you did a tremendously good thing in just honestly speaking about him. Your voice carries a weight so many don't, because you are a plainly decent person. Any harm to his reputation is entirely his fault, and he would have continued being a predator and harming folks, then maligning THEM, publicly, over and over and over again, had you not done your piece to show the YouTube viewing public these facets of his character. You have saved women from being preyed on, others from being maligned... possibly there would have been another nonprofit torpedoed, with all her good works, ruined... Lol
For real though, the things Aaron has done are so wild and not even remotely funny. So freakishly destructive. Good people forced into hiding, for years... I'd sooner die than do some of the things he's done, an is entirely unrepentant about. If bad men exist at all, Aaron is among their ranks. And this is entirely his own doing, he worked hard to be this evil. Don't feel bad about telling the world any of the things you said... Be proud that you did the right thing. Be proud that you are decent enough to see that people needed to know who and what he is, even though it was hard, and hurt you to do. You are a good person, and this is the one thing that truly matters in life.

Using your position on the board of a nonprofit, to hook up with desperate, vulnerable woman who have come to you, in crisis, and driving them to deeper depths of desperation, fracturing their fragile mental states.... Then insisting you did nothing wrong, morality is for the birds and "normal people don't care" about their petty concerns... His priorities are so insanely backwards, the most important aspects of existence are things he dismisses as silly notions, completely violating the spirit that animates an organization like The Aftermath Foundation. He acts like this is his private life and they are overstepping in caring at all, when he is using his position on their board to prey on vulnerable women, leaving them broken, possibly psychotic, apparently drugged-up. Victimized by the very people they went to for help.
Then he attacks the group itself, successfully maligning them in the public eye and severely damaging their ability to help people, because they dared suggest that he should possess a mote of human decency in his dealings with others, as a representative of their group.
Sure, Aaron has not had things easy. Who has? If we are saying a hard life excuses preying on people, then we are excusing L. Ron Hubbard, Danny Masterson, and David Miscavige with the same sentiment.
Aaron will never have the capacity to ever be a tenth of the person Jenna deserves. She is a wonderful person and she can, and should, enjoy a wonderful life with a light heart. She is better off alone, than compromising herself to be a match for someone so grotesquely below her, on the only metric that truly means something about a person.
Get far away from Aaron, don't concern yourself with having the approval of anybody who approves of him, stay on the path. You have been a success in life so far, you have not lost sight of what matters. Let him be lost and confounded on his own, he struggles and fights against his better nature all the time, that he might keep indulging empty, hedonistic desires in grossly antisocial ways. Working hard to twist his own mind day by day, finding the justifications as to why being bad is good. Never growing, continually waking up with a heart heavier than the one he had yesterday, getting more and more lost, oblivious to what matters, or how to find peace and happiness. His bank account growing as his humanity, along with the little good and decent within him, constantly shrinks.
I am not disappointed in Jenna at all, she did the right thing 100% in saying what she did, and there's no reason she should feel compelled to leave those videos about some very private, sensitive subjects up forever. I just pray she is not worried about pleasing Aaron or his supporters, and I pray she keeps him in her rear view mirror, a mistake, a host of lessons learned. I doubt he taught her anything of value at all, because how could he have? But I do hope that he maybe learned a bit about decency, goodness, depth, and what truly matters in life from her.
I doubt his capacity to have done so... But in the interest of the good thing he could become, if so motivated, and those he'll impact in his life, I truly hope she made an impression on him.
Miracles happen every day. And the miracle of someone as spiritually bankrupt, hopelessly lost, and thoroughly indecent as him, being given the opportunity to be close to someone like Jenna, just for a time, and maybe seeing what she is and wanting what she has, abandoning the path to nowhere he was on at middle age, and becoming a good person... that truly would be a miracle. And he could on to have a better impact on the world with his platform with that... Like I said, I doubt his capacity to even have recognized what she has, that he is so deficient in, the significance of it, etcetera. I think he lives a life of empty pleasure-seeking and he can't even conceive of anything deeper or more meaningful. I think he discounts all the mysteries of life, and has no faith that we might be here for any reason, doing anything of any consequence.
But if he has had some seed planted, or even primed himself to maybe experience a spiritual awakening someday, as a consequence of his interaction... That could be a great thing, and maybe a heartening possibility for Jenna. Though, I hope for her sake, she can disinvest in caring about him one way or the other. Move on to better things, chalk him up to lessons learned. One last bad adventure, as a reminder that for young people, adventure itself, adventure alone, is something most of us seek out. But after a certain point, we don't have enough time, patience, or interest for good AND bad adventures, and we need to demand good adventures, or none at all

Jenna, you said, “This is a liar, and a cheater, and a betrayer, and those behaviors, and those qualities in someone do not just restrict themselves to somebody’s private life or sex life. If somebody’s going to lie and cheat and steal in their relationship to the person who they say they love most in the world, that they care about most in the world, who they’re telling every day how much they love them, then they’re going to do it everywhere else.
They’re going to do it on the internet.
They’re going to do it to friends.
Everywhere.
It is a character flaw, not a sex life flaw.”
You expressed your feelings so well in this particular part.
(And today I want to add to the above that I hope you reread your words I’ve typed out for you every day. They were so, so, spot on, intelligent, and thoughtful. They came from YOU. Be always on your side, Jenna. Don’t join the other team against you, because then you cease to exist.

@childofcascadia:
The issue is, those maladaptive coping mechanisms dont go away on their own. The person has to take a long hard look at themselves sometimes with the guidance of a trained professional like a psychologist that specializes in trauma. And make a conscious effort to change. And its not easy. Its one of the hardest things a person can do. Its like ripping a bandage off a festering wound to drain the pus. It reveals the ugly horrific wound the person would rather keep hidden even if by keeping it hidden, its causing harm.
The issue being, sometimes maladapted people learn all they have to do is make what sounds like a heartfelt apology to avoid that look at their metaphorical festering mental wound. Then they can just keep it covered and continue exactly as they were before.
I know. Ive been there.
Its great he apologized. But hes not going to change that easily. He has some very unhealthy patterns in how he conducts himself among those close to him. Please dont let him back in your life. His actions are not drunken "oops" cheating. They are calculated. His emotional treatment of you isnt normal in relationships. Ive been happily married for a decade. And yeah, we sometimes bicker or argue. But it never ever devolves into personal attacks, belittling bullying or invalidating. Thats just not healthy.

We know That you and aaron had something special. Is that there was a lot of good times. We never thought That it was all bad.
He messed up, & he hurt you.
People can be a good person and sometimes a crappy boyfriend or girlfriend. Is it going to been from all the pressure. We don't know, & We shouldn't guess.
We understood why you made the video. We No you were hurting. Your intention wasn't too maliciously hurt anyone else.
Your emotions run high.
We and watching you long enough. We may not know you personally. Yet we can get a sense,
Of what type of person someone is & were they are coming from.
Don't feel guilty, Of what we say.
Some people take too far.
We know it is a personal situation between the both of you.
You're not type of person, To come on and cry tell a personal situation. We It had to be something that deeply hurt you for you to do that.
Listen I have an ex who I am still friends with yrs later & we broke up because he cheated on me.
He gave me a heart felt apology.
Took me a awhile to except it.
I realized, I know when before we started any type of intimate relationship. He's a good guy.
Just not a good boyfriend to me.
Every situation is different. You can't blanket statement all.
It's OK. It wasn't right or wrong.
We are not going to define you of that one incident.
I know my friends & I enjoy watching your videos & will continue to do so.
We are not going to act silly & attack anyone on your behalf.
Anyone who watches you , would know that is not what you were going for.
Jenna take a deep breath, give yourself grace. You are good person. It will be ok.
People take years to build.
Their youtube channels.
Your channel is still in being stages. You still got a great following. More time goes by, the people who don't get you Will be gone, & people you build over time, It will be the people who truly want to be here. Who will have your best intentions. That does take a little time. You are already almost there faster then most people.
You stood up for yourself, for your friends & people you love, While you were You were in scientology.
Even When the same people you stood up for didn't do the same in return. This is something that was naturally in you. Not something anyone had taught you. Is the care in the love in your heart was strong, it beat all odds. You broke the Cycle. You did that all on your own. So your children, Have loving childhood.
That's why I admire you so much.
Sometimes you go in to make mistakes, lol, I'm glad, First.
Because you learn from them. 2nd That just means you are human.
Something that's how you try take out of people.
Take some time off cuddle with your children drink some tea, Watch some.
Movies. Know you are loved.
Could be thankful for all the good you have in your life. That you build.

@Southern-Sleuth:
Thank you for updating us. I appreciate your honesty. I also want to express my honest opinion and I really mean it with respect. I'm not willing to forgive Aaron yet. I do pray he does some soul searching and self-reflection. I also wish he would get some counseling for his deep inner unresolved pain. There's help that doesn't cost $300 a session. I think we're all redeemable and I want him to continue to improve himself.
I understand and respect what you're saying, but Aaron's
cheating was intentional though Jenna. He's a grown man. He didn't tell you he wanted to be with Lindsay again because he knew you would be hurt and upset. That proves he was lying intentionally. That isn't love.
Even his kids were hoping he treated you better than their mom. Once a cheater, always a cheater. Please remember that. If he REALLY loved you, he wouldn't have cheated on you with Lindsay and many other women at the same time. You were right. He did treat you like a common wh0re. That's not love. This is not a result of losing a parent at a young age. Many people unfortunately lose parents at young ages but they don't treat others so horribly like this.
He's also a liar and manipulator. He has treated Heather, Lindsay, other women and you the same way, plus several of his ex-Scientology friends that are your friends too. That isn't love.
He has screamed at numerous people besides you. This is a pattern of behavior. Raising voices is different from SCREAMING to whete you're hoarse the next day. We all raise our voices if we get angry, but his screaming at you and others crosses the line to verbal abuse and complete disrespect. He has anger management control issues.
Nora was trying to support you and stand up for herself as well. I understand you don't want any part of it. I hope it was your choice and not Aaron crying to you that she hurt him. Aaron hurt her very deeply too. She is fresh from being hurt by him too. Yes, she could have gone about it in a less aggressive tone. I think she's just tired of seeing him hurting numerous ex-Scientology members. I know you don't want to see Aaron hurt, but please remember Aaron has been the one hurting others besides you. He's also hurt Liz G, Liz F, Dillon, Serge, Reece, Miriam, Christy, Leah, Rinder and the rest of the Aftermath Foundation board.
Him not telling you he had been sleeping around was irresponsible because you could have contracted an STD. Some are incurable.
I'm extremely glad he apologized to you. I know you love and care about him. Please just don't reduce his bad behavior because he apologized. His behavior was verbally abusive and extremely disrespectful, and irresponsible. He is no where ready for a monogamous relationship. He is no where ready to be faithful.
I guarantee he cried a lot when he apologized to you. I just question his motives. I hope he didn't ask you make this video or plant the idea in your mind. I know you are a strong and brave woman who can take care of herself.
Please don't rush back into a relationship with him. With you both living on opposite sides of the country, you'll never be able to know if he's being faithful to you. I just don't want to see you hurt again. I'm afraid he'll love bomb you and then it will start all over again. I know you care about him very much, that's why it's harder for you to see it. I just worry he will suck you back in. Unless he gets assistance with impoving his ghosting behavior, I doubt it will change. He's done this with numerous relationships and friendships over at least 20 plus years. He's told us before how him and Heather wouldn't speak. He said they would fight all the time. This is improper and immature communication from a grown man. I still don't understand why he hasn't gotten a divorce, especially when he said over a year ago he was. It's unfair to his wife, girlfriends and other women he's sleeping around with, as well as his kids. Him not knowing how to have healthy relationships because of his past is another huge reason that counseling would benefit him greatly. I think his ego is preventing him possibly from pursuing this. If he really Wants to stop losing relationships, friendships and sabotaging his life, then it's confusing why he doesn't prioritize this and actually give it a try for a period of time. Going one time doesn't work. You also have to find someone you feel comfortable with. I went once a month for 5 years for depression. PTSD, suici d@l ideations, chronic pain/Fibromyalgia, anxiety and post concussion syndrome. It helped save my life, improve my depression and relationships and deal with living chronic pain.
Remember numerous of your friends warned you about him. Please listen to them. A leopard doesn't change his spots. They are on the outside looking in. They can see things more clearly. I know you can't turn off your feelings, but remember that Aaron isn't the victim here, you are. He's the one that caused your pain by disrespecting you, lying to you, cheating on you. 10,000 didn't unsub to him because of Nora. It was because we're tired of him verbally abusing and disrespecting his wife, girlfriends and friends. It's a pattern. We don't want his demise. We want him to stop hurting the ex-Scientology members we've all come to love, care for, support, and admire over many years. Then see his ego blame everyone else.
Remember you put your video up so you wouldn't go back to him because if you didn't put it up then you would go back to him. Listen to these gut instincts you said. You were right. You're not the only one who has been in this cycle. It's ok the love and care for others from a distance, or setting boundaries or staying friends. Please continue to listen to your friends, except for the friends that told you you can get through it if you love him enough you can work through it. Screaming, manipulating, fighting a lot, gaslighting, lying and cheating isn't love.
I'm very worried about you. I care for you and admire you very much. You have inspired so many people and helped many people break the cycle of different abusive situations they were in. I am still here to support you. I will continue to keep you in my prayers ❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Most have found themselves in messy situations and everybody has flaws. It’s the lessons we learn from those life experiences and how we use them to grow that defines us.
Forgiveness is a great doctrine, but so is NOT forgetting.
Look forward to watching your content Jenna, your voice does matter more than you know.
Happiness for 2025!

Hopefully, they’re not deleted because it’s important to remember what happened when you trusted Aaron and how vulnerable you were.
It’s okay to hope for change and better behavior from people we care about.
Watch out for what I like to call “the dance” where old behaviors on both sides start to slowly repeat.
If you decide to reconnect with Aaron, please watch out for familiar patterns and know it takes a lot more than an apology to actually make a real change.

The heartfelt apology had you accepting the "good" in the relationship was real. In reality, the good was the lie.
You experienced narcissistic abuse and you are rationalizing, minimizing, and accepting his abuse as being the exception and not who he really is.
Please get counseling with an experienced narcissistic abuse therapist.

@roxanne2064:
please know that his experience of "empathy" is not the same as yours tho. whereas it's something that's ever-present for you, he truly can (and will) turn it on & off like a faucet to achieve his ends. that's why it can feel so real one moment & then seemingly vanish the next.
idc if you ever put those vids back up, but please consider taking this one down, too. it lets him off wayyy too easy & it puts wayyy too much of the blame on you. also please read It's Not You by Dr. Ramani.

@veldalyonswatchwoman:
The predictable pattern if your on YouTube or whatever platform your using is take the videos down , go away for a while. Come back on YouTube , be gaslit , make excuses for the abuser and condone their behavior , unfortunately they can be very charming and deceitful but I think you’ll eventually get it…
Like someone else in the comment section mention it usually takes about 7 full cycles 🔁 of this
I’m also a Christian and I understand trauma Bond, but I also understand it’s a demonic trauma bond .. narcissists get assistance from dark entities.. unfortunately
Praying 🙏 you will soon be set free from this endless cycle of abuse

I don't think he did it to hurt you either. Impulse control is different from not loving someone.
After hearing both sides, this whole thing made sense to me. I was worried you guys were too far apart to ever see the other persons point of view, actually.
It killed me to see you guys hurting like that...
None of us are perfect. I've made really bad choices in my life. I'm not sure I'd be the person I am today if other weren't able to forgive me and give me some space to grow.
Obviously, that requires us as individuals to actually make changes as well... but doing so is possible under the right circumstances.
Anyway, very well spoken as always, Jenna

As someone who has been fully destroyed by narcissistic abuse, please consider if this may apply to your life. I am wishing you everything wonderful in your life.
The cycle of narcissistic abuse typically consists of three distinct phases: idealization (love bombing), devaluation, and discard; where the narcissist initially showers their partner with affection and attention, then begins to criticize and belittle them, and finally discards them, often leaving the victim feeling confused and emotionally drained, potentially leading them back into the cycle to seek the initial positive attention again.

Just because someone is still struggling with their own, and have seriously done you wrong doesn’t mean you automatically stop caring or loving that person. YES- new boundaries and safeguards for you are necessary- but holding onto that hate and constant negativity only serves to hold you back and impede your own growth. Especially with having first hand knowledge of the trauma that person has gone through. Empathy and forgiveness are never wrong - I trust you know yourself enough to still love and forgive while learning from that experience and taking the positive with you to further and enrich your own journey.
I think you taking this stance is brave mostly BECAUSE it’s the unpopular move that can make you look like a pushover.

There’s many people out there that didn’t have parents, got abused etc etc but don’t cheat and hurt people. He’s not ok….what he did wasn’t an oopsie. He did it intentionally and didn’t care how it would effect you until it effected his subs and money. He only apologized when thousands of people called him out, not when you were hurt the first time as a matter of fact didnt he say why would he even tell you?. He didn’t care….and still doesn’t. He only cares about his YouTube channel and trying to get back on ur good side.

Aaron is what he is good with the bad. You were not wrong probably way too honest for most people. You took it where you needed to take it for your soul. Consider if this happened to your best friend or even your grown up daughter. That’s the prospective you might come from to see this from the outside world. Because a persons answer for someone they love is different from how we allow ourselves to be treated. This not an example of a good man to hold up for your children. Now I like Aaron he’s one of the few shows I watch due to so many of the fact that does not cuss as much as the others. He has that personality that pulls a person in which is why he’s successful. Would I want lots of Aaron’s in this space NO
They can be only one lol.
I watch your videos because your calm and give good content.
Don’t change
Don’t be a doormat.
You can’t change the fact that you have abandonment issues from your childhood.
Holding you in my prayers. I know you might not have a belief system because of Scientology but I do so I’ll pray for you honey.

I hope you don't continue in an abusive relationship. You deserve so much better and I hope you continue to recognize the signs of abusive behavior. Please don't belittle yourself and the situation. It's not in anyone's best interest to be involved in a relationship where neither person is their best version. I hope you stay away from anyone who does not bring out the best in you.
Do what's best for you and your children in overcoming your trauma. It's easy to repeat patterns. I'm hoping you break the pattern for you and your children.

@FUNKY_BUTTLOVIN:
Not to compare the two, but I remember a woman on TikTok who went there to air out how her husband had abused their little girl in the worst way, and she would get very upset and block people for commenting saying he deserves to be locked up for a long time... because in spite of her feelings of betrayal, disgust, furious anger, hurt and etc., she still couldn't help but love him, and she simultaneously hated the idea of him facing punishment from the courts, and the life-ending social implications of now and forever being known as a pdf file.
How she feels is normal. The thoughts though, I do hope she won't keep making excuses for him.
He is a predator, he preys on women and doesn't even seem to possess the depth to understand why it's bad or grasp why people care. He ruined so many good things and drove good people into hiding with lies and misrepresentations.
There are a couple schools of thought on human badness... one angle is, everybody does good and bad, and nobody is good or bad entirely.
But, if anyone is bad... if there is a line you can cross, where you're good up to here, and past this point, you are a bad person... he blew past that line, then turned around and sought to deeply wound everybody who witnessed it happen, then ran another mile.
He has done more badness than should simply be forgiven. And then he sought to ruin the people who tried to limit the extreme damage he was doing, all maliciously, which is beyond rotten.
Either he doesn't get it, suggesting he is something along the lines of a psychopath, just completely out of touch with universal human decency, or he knew what he was doing, and just didn't care, only cared about winning, only cared about himself, willing to ruin anybody and everybody to get the thing he wanted in that moment... which also, suggests he is something along the lines of a psychopath.
Jenna has got a lot of depth and kindness, but i think decent straight men and women, almost always tend to be TOO forgiving when it comes to gender-specific weaknesses and evils specific to the gender they're attracted to. Decent women will understand that men contend with aggression and drives towards sexual misconduct and, not experiencing these strong drives themselves, they don't get that decent men obsess over not letting these drives control them, and that men who do, are just bad people, period.
He is a ruiner, and he'll probably never be more than this, because the kinds of bad acts he does, are the kinds of things that the young and immature and ignorant, still understand are just entirely unacceptable.

Having said that, every time he wants to creep into your grace look at that first video.
At this point it’s better for you to distance yourself from him and all of his friends. For your sake and that of your children.
It takes time to heal. Give yourself that time.

Enabling behavior includes covering up for the person's actions, providing financial support for their harmful behavior, neglecting your own needs to care for the person, and avoiding confronting the problem.

This is also a massive red flag 🚩 that we need to learn to recognize.
Jenna, I would really like to recommend you Dr Ramani here on YT.
The way to expose narcs behaviour is showing their red flags - doing so won't make that person popular as people need to face the reality from a new lens which can be scary.
People who has fallen victim to narcs behaviour and is finally speaking out will be painted out as the perpetrator when the narc behaviour is exposed. Because it can look like "hate" (when they are in fact hurt and exposing the truth) to people who aren't aware of the narcs behaviour. This is a very common reaction to narc abuse.
People will catch on to the truth as they start to listen to their own gut feeling in their own time. But it means shattering what they thought was the reality, and it's "better the devil we know".
Bad behaviour shouldn't be excused as a pass just because people sometimes are good too.
You trusted your gut and spoke out, I truely hope you'll continue to listen to your gut over your heart and not let others opinions lead you wrong.

Do I believe people can change? Yes. I know they can, I have changed. Do they always change? Sadly no. Only the people involved know if it’s worth taking the risk. But that’s in any relationship.
Thank you for the video. I don’t think it will help, and that’s not on you. That’s on the ugly acting people who used your pain for their gain. They will use this too. I don’t understand why YouTube allows the vicious bully mentality. It’s ugly. I support you no matter your future decisions. I also support Aaron as a valuable resource in the anti Scientology community. Sending love prayers and nothing but kind thoughts to you. You really are extraordinary.

He obviously does not consider your feelings, at least he has shown multiple times in the past that he does not care about hurting you.
He is not a victim in this situation, he is just surprised that he actually had consequences. It's not remorse, it's audacity on his part and he has become a good enough actor to promise you he'll change.
He knows you well and knows what to say to you so you'll cave. Especially since you have children together it's convenient for him to show you the known and uncomplicated route (no separation) and hope you'll take it even if you have to lie to yourself to be kind to him, as he knows you are kind and cannot help yourself empathizing with him. Don't fall for it, please - I and so many other commenters have been there. It's a pattern, he won't change, possibly he cannot change (without excusing his behavior - I mean at this point he is so used to it that it's become second nature to him).
Trust your initial gut reaction, you were absolutely correct about everything. Don't trivialize what he did because it's not trivial, and it's not the first nor the last time. How long until he inevitably hurts you again? You deserve happiness instead of hurt, you should never have to feel that again. And the good thing is that you don't have to feel like this ever again if you leave this relationship - it's in your own hands! You can actually decide that and not depend on his promises.
Also, the good parts don't make the bad parts of the relationship worthwhile if there is continuous and unchanging disrespect from his side regarding your feelings. The bad parts in their own are more than enough to leave.
Life without this constant manipulation and inconstancy is so worth it, but you cannot see it until you are there. You'll have to let go first, take a leap of faith and accept the uncertainty. It's terrifying, but it's so empowering coming out on the other side and realizing you pulled through. The feelings of misplaced guilt and inadequacy (if you have any) and the thought patterns about excusing and explaining away the a8use will fade away, too, as you are healing.
Please stay strong, trust in yourself. I am wishing you all the best.

You just clarified that you both yelled but there was never any name calling etc and people are still calling it abuse for some strange reason. You got your apology for his cheating and you want to move on, you deserve to.
ASL isn’t the only cheater on this earth. There are TV shows and YouTube channels dedicated to cheaters. It happens all the time. It shouldn’t. It’s definitely immoral and unfair behaviour. I personally hate it! It’s not abuse though as you so rightly pointed out.
Jenna, I also want to thank you for apologising to those that got caught in the crossfire. Rabbit never came out and addressed the situation, so because she didn’t she was bombarded with messages, emails of hate and threats for not doing it. Rabbit was finally pushed to hit back and she was in tears trying to say she wasn’t going to involve herself in it. Trolls flooded her livestreams and still continue to.
I believed Rabbit did the right thing staying out of it because it was yours and Aaron’s personal business, not YouTube’s or YT’s content creators business.
Poe on the Go has now been hacked and facebook photos stolen and put on dating sites. Not sure if that’s related or not.
Jenna, I know this is a long post but I want to say I really admire your courage in coming back out and speaking your truth. We all have ups and downs and messy moments and that’s ok, you’re human, you’ve been through so much. I still think of you being in charge of all the vitamins and the dangerous potassium as a 6-7 yr old for all the kids on the farm. The narrator had such a childlike voice when telling that part of the book.
You can accomplish and overcome anything. You’re very brave and truly one of my Sheros! ❤

I share your videos with as many people as I can. You have a unique voice and perspective that cannot be replicated. It's why I come back and tell others to check you out, too. I wish you the absolute best, Jenna! You're a fuckin warrior and a one of a kind presence here on the internet ❤

Every toxic relationship is very beautiful and very tragic that’s part of why it’s so addicting I’m sure you know. As someone who’s been with myself, talking about the abuse that you go through and the reality of the situation is not ignoring the beauty that came with it, but you cannot have one without the other in these situations I promise.
Empathy factor of zero? Sounds like where someone has to be when they’re cheating. Reactive abuse is very real as well. When someone invalidates and lies and betrays you and then uses your natural emotional reaction to further shame and invalidate you.

Like others have said, you should not feel that you owed anyone an apology, however, if choosing to publicly apologise will help your personal recovery then I'm pleased that you have done so.
I'm not going to comment on the relationship side of things, or label anyone for things they have done that have obviously been hurtful to you (as they would have been to 99.99% of others who found themselves caught up in an emotionally charged, very painful situation), except to say I'm so pleased that the majority of people have been supportive to you during a really rough period of your life.
Unfortunately, some good people have been caught in some very nasty crossfire/fallout in the last couple of weeks. Jenna, please know & believe that isn't your fault so don't own it in any way. IMO, the people who have chosen to act in this way are the ones who need to look at their behaviour.

Realizing (mostly from comments Mike Rinder made soon before his death, but also Aaron's own admissions, and sentiments supported by how he treated Jenna) just how terrible Aaron is to EVERY WOMAN he touches is just heartbreaking and disgusting.
And yes, being someone who is NORMAL and prosocial and recoils from the idea of harming another, I just didn't believe that Aaron was this thing he is, it took hearing it over and over from multiple people, and Jenna's voice specifically, she is just so decent that her words hold much more weight. And now I feel betrayed by him, and ashamed of supporting him, when he was very much entirely very far in the wrong. I'd die before ever degenerating into something so indecent as him. Even as an angry and confused teenager and young adult, I never treated women so horribly as he does... A married man, with a daughter..... None of that has persuaded him to become remotely decent??
Part of remaining a decent person I think, so often involves remaining willfully blind to just how completely rotten so many people are. I'd never suspect anybody of secretly being as rotten as Aaron is. Especially someone I like? No, of course he could never do such things! But there's no doubt about it now... It's so wild, why did he ever get into wanting to be in a nonprofit that exists to help people? He clearly doesn't care about people who aren't him.... So why did he ever put himself in this space? Was it all just desire for fame? To gain access to more broken women, confused enough to have him? I can't make sense of any of it. I think that aspect where it just doesn't make sense has given him so much cover. People don't believe he could ever be so thoroughly rotten, because it just doesn't make sense to them, they can't grasp by he chooses to be this thing, when he is perfectly capable of being a man

2025/01/15
@cadencejane75:
I am not vilifying anyone. As I’m learning to be a therapist, a critical part of my training is to be able to hold space for the damage done to a person as a child while still expecting the adult in front of me to meet basic standards of behaviour, and I can critique the behaviour of the adult as means to accessing the deeper issues of childhood trauma. The issue I have is that the latter conditions - basic standards of behaviour and accessing deeper issues do not appear to be happening on one side of the equation and that side is not your side.
Of course, IDK for certain because I wasn’t there. But I’m confident in my ability to spot a rigid, entrenched behaviour pattern when I see it, and I’m learning to recognise when those patterns fit into a diagnostic construct.
Another therapist said something better than I can, which is to wait 1-2 years to date, or until you feel 100% confident in yourself, however long that takes, and I completely agree.
A person who genuinely loves you will respect this, support your autonomy, hold space for your needs, and make a clear determination as to whether they feel they can wait romantically or not. If not, they’ll support you as a friend, and if so, they’ll encourage you in the interest of your relationship. Neither of you are concerned with starting families, so you should be able to wait, if it’s genuinely meant to be: there’s no rush. What a person who loves you will not do is try to sweep you off your feet in a hurry, then get into a toxic push-pull struggle for power and control while arguing over who is to blame and banging anyone who’s up for it, especially if that person is over 40 years old. This is adolescent behaviour. You deserve to have a peaceful, respectful relationship between completely equal adults who gradually, over time and by mutual agreement each place the other person’s welfare ahead of their own and keep recommitting to that choice every single day and prove it through their actions.
Furthermore, you cannot be both partner and therapist. That’s never going to be a healthy relationship. Ever.
I cannot repeat this enough: you are a good person. You are enough just as you are. You absolutely blow me away with your insight and empathy that it takes others, including those of us who were not raised in deprivation in a cult, decades to learn - it comes naturally to you. It’s an admirable virtue and tremendous strength that you have but can also be weaponised and exploited, so hold it close to your chest, please be gentle with yourself and judicious with your heart.

I hope not too many people twist your words or make you feel bad. I feel that you have and are handling all of what you are feeling very maturely. Like massively maturely.
You are a very well spoken, honest, loving, caring young lady who has lived more emotions than your age.

What you have said and done, you did beautifully, and with eloquence, as only your pure heart knows.

I couldn't tell friends I was leaving the country, I couldn't risk his finding out. The only people who knew were my immediate family.
Best thing I did for myself. He's into his fourth wife. Wife two & three left him before having children. Wife four is stuck having three children by him. That was in 1969.

He made choices, and for some, the continued history and patterns of behaviour, whether it be manipulations, double standards, double speak, weaponsing para-social relationships and the community covertly, excuses, coercive control, abuses - emotional and mental, hypocrises, omissions, agressive behaviour, passive aggressiveness, convoluted explanations, offensiveness and then don't get me started on the mismanagement and neglection of the SPTV foundation - e.g. the youtube channel should have more than 3k members now, should be montised, with a wealth of information, support and tools for who the foundation is aimed at in an educational way, with trauma informed and educated professionals both on the channel and within the foundation itself, with no linkage to personal montised channels - has made people see who he is. It's not your responsibility.
I respect your concern for his children. But this isn't a one-off thing. It's a pattern. And that's not your fault, and you shouldn't feel any type of way. It's his behaviours, his choices that got himself here, not you. If he feels that he may need to reflect and make changes, then that's down to him to do.
My family excused my fathers behaviour for decades and placed blame on his suriviors, and sure, it wasn't all bad, but there still were destructive behaviours. If someone actually called it out, then maybe not so many people would have had to pick themselves up after being broken by him, and maybe he would have changed. But he manipulated, turned that charm or tears or whatever he needed on, so people complied, became enablers and complicit.
Your experience may be different to my own, but there are similarities that can be compared and contrasted.
But please don't put the weight on you. Dont forget why you put the videos up in the first place, and never get sucked back in and go back. Upwards and forwards, with defiance and determination.
This aint on you. It's on him ☮️

What Aaron did wasnt a basic argument?
You should only reading the comments of women that experienced the same treatment. Some would say yes it was happy when it was good.... but flip it. Most leave because of the bad. A relationship needs to be happy mentally....with binkering here and there...its allowed.

He ABSOLUTELY did those things to hurt you. And if it wasn't to intentionally hurt you, he had ZERO cares in the world whether you would have been hurt by those actions AT ALL. He does not think about other people. Why would he have responded to you the way he did when you confronted him on the phone? What was it he said again, when you asked if he was ever going to fess up to the things he did that "weren't meant to hurt you?" Oh, that's right, he said, "Why would I?" That answer says it all.
I still support you, Jenna. I just really want you to consider continuing ANY type of relationship with the person. There's a whole community that is on your side and has seen for months now what this person is capable of. Please take care of yourself. 💕💕💕

Honestly, I think, a lifetime. ....although as long as we are working on it, it just keeps getting better...we grow and learn.
I hope you will be as patient and kind to yourself as possible. ( A good counselor / therapist / guide would always encourage that.) As far as I'm concerned, I can't see that you've done anything to apologize for. You honestly shared your feelings...it takes courage to be honest and I don't find that a crime or mistake. I might even call it a super power. And to do a follow up to add clarification is also fine. The point is we are all human. Perhaps a big part of life is simply accepting that fact.
Scientology does not recognize that, and so it is indeed a long, tough road to get out of that erroneous thinking that's been baked in..
Please feel free to completely discount what I am going to say here....I'm just passing on some things I've learned in my own life that may or may not even apply: Love is a complex emotion. Sometimes we misunderstand love as being that "passionate attraction" we can have. That kind of relationship won't last because it is not based on the true fullness of what love really is. Real love is unconditional love..the kind that creates a true and lasting relationship. True love accepts the flaws. True love supports the other person no matter what they do or what happens. (obviously I am not saying you support abusive behavior.....don't misunderstand) True love seeks to support and uplift each other...on BOTH sides.. Think of your children. That mother's love is an important part of real love.
And of course 2 wounded people ( especially who never really learned what love is or even human social values and skills) will generally not end up being able to support one another..... UNLESS both of those people are sincerely willing to work on HEALING the wounds. As long as wounds are ignored and buried, they are always there and will destroy that person, and others as well.. I am going out on a limb and just saying this...I have been a supporter of Aaron
for a very long time through his work and what he has personally shared openly to his viewers over the years. (And I still support him and am pulling for him to find the happiness he deserves) It is quite clear to me that
he is still running away from his pain. And as such, he will not be able to have a healthy relationship with anyone until he can
heal the relationship within himself. That has to be recognized. To support someone's destructive behaviors is not love. And it isn't healthy for anyone. I hope ( if you aren't already doing so) you will also be sure to get a lot of clarity on what it means to be in a relationship with someone who does have narcissistic tendencies. Someone who has been in a cult can be pretty darn vulnerable and naive about those things. That type of personality will find endless ways to drag you back again and again and it is not healthy for anyone. You don't need that. And he doesn't need someone to allow him to continue to do that. Sometimes supporting someone, means being willing to stand up to seriously unhealthy behaviors. And not allow them to blame YOU for their own destructive behaviors. As adults, we ALL have to take responsibility . You don't help a drug addict by buying him drugs. I'm sure you understand my point. You can still love them....but from an appropriate distance ...with appropriate boundaries, where it won't be harmful.
My heart is sincerely with you both...and with all who are struggling to regain their lives after having to grow up with so much pain and dysfunction. It is so very hard. I hope what I have said here will not be misunderstood . It is coming from my heart. And there is no need to respond or even listen to or believe any of this. I'm simply offering my thoughts.
Any true relationship should not require ANY strings. Strings are a red flag. You deserve to find true and lasting happiness.
You are clearly a very, very special and beautiful person. You have my great respect...keep going....it WILL get better.

Yes he cheated numerous times with his gf (I believe her name was Lindsey?). BUT what you are forgetting Jenna he cheated on all of you because he is STILL MARRIED. That alone shows you that he cant be trusted. He cheated on is marriage for years and you all think thats ok? You truly believe that his wife is ok with all this too?
I hope you are wiser than this and dont go falling for the head games that he is putting on you. Please respect yourself more than he does. Please be strong and walk away from this mental abuse you are getting. So many of us have walked in your shoes and are begging you and warning you about what is next. Dont be a fool and think that this isnt going to happen to you. Wake up and turn around and keep walking Jenna before its too late again

Also, forgiveness is for you, not for him. It does not mean what he did was okay or to be forgotten. Forgiveness is so you can move on away from him.
Accept the apology and learn from this as you go in a different direction.
Taking the videos down is okay if you want to protect his children but do not do it for him or others who have been in an abusive relationship. If people are twisting your words then maybe reconsider keeping the videos down so your true words can be checked.
I am concerned you may be rethinking things and starting to put some of the blame on yourself. Please, please don’t. Please don’t let him continue to control you.
You deserve much, much better.

Sarah Boone thought she should be off the hook because she didn’t intend for her boyfriend to die when she zipped him in a suitcase and left him there overnight. She must have said “Unintentional!!” 50+ times, between her police interview and her testimony at trial. And yet…the jury found her guilty of 2nd degree murd3r and she is now serving a life sentence.
I truly sympathize with Aaron’s childhood trauma — as the f^<k I do with your childhood trauma, and that of all other CoS survivors (particularly 2nd+ gens.) Trauma and lack of good role models can shed light on why a person may make abominable choices and repeatedly mistreat everyone around him. But they do NOT excuse these choices, nor obligate anyone else to forgive their own mistreatment.
Of course you also played a role in the bad parts of your relationship, as well as the good. It is human to make mistakes, to hurt others sometimes. It is abusive to repeatedly make the same mistakes which severely injure others, over a period of years, with essentially no true empathy for others. It is (imo) narcissistically abusive to make these repeated, severely impactful mistakes and then “apologize” using terms like ‘self-sabotage’ while gaslighting the injured parties to downplay the severity of the abuse, point out any small failing of the injured parties, and overall attempt to leave the listener feeling at least as sorry for the abuser as for the abused.
If forgiving him will give you closure before moving on with your life, by all means do so. Just be careful of the slippery slope. Sadly, this type of abuse occurs in cycles — and after separating from the abuser is the most vulnerable time, when the abuser may slowly try to worm their way back into your life.
I wish no ruin for Aaron. I hope one day he will pursue therapy for his trauma, rather than trying to dull his pain through alcohol/drugs/sexual conquests.
But I would not recommend that anyone trust him — particularly women, especially kind and generous ones with their own trauma and vulnerabilities 🚩🚩🚩🚩
I look forward to whatever content you choose to put out going forward, Jenna. Sending healing hugs 🙋♀️🤗❤️

As far as you yelling back, what you experienced is likely "reactional abuse" and you are never to be blamed for that. Also, Aaron is not trying to "do his best", yeah sorry. His cheating was done intentionally because a narcissist doesn't care about anyone's feelings but their own.
Forgiveness is fine, however, please realize forgiveness is done for you and not for them...true forgiveness can be letting that person go, and true forgiveness does not mean you have to let that person back into your life just because you forgive them. True forgiveness can be a way for you to move on in your own life with peace. I respect your decision, however I'm still disappointed the videos are gone. They were brilliant and helped a lot of people see patterns of abuse in their own lives and make changes. Your videos helped call out a horrible abuser, which can alert others not to fall for it. Just please, no matter what, do not feel one second of regret for what you did. You are giving him WAY more grace than he deserves. Keep healing ❤🙏

Jenna, wake up. He was responsible for the kids and the wife (and your relationship) the first time he cheated, and the second, and the third.
If a hole was all he needed to risk his family's income I'm pretty sure you are entitled to be a victim and speak out. I'm pretty sure you (as a human being) are more valid than a man's need of a hole.
And both of you have trauma, his can be his excuse and yours has to be your blame? Nope. Huge red flags.

I spent 15 years in a relationship with someone like ASL. I took him back so many times and was so manipulated so many times into thinking I was the problem.
None of this was your fault—even though you have made mistakes and have also been angry.
Just know that we are supporting you if you take him back, and in whatever you do, and we will be here for you when he hurts you again. And he will.
There’s no judgement, and many of us have been through this cycle too many times to count.
Please, please take care of your mental health and consider getting some therapy for narc abuse. Just check it out. It doesn’t hurt even if it’s through someone on YouTube like Dr. Ramani.

You are marvellous in all your beauty and flaws. Stay true to your self, as far as you are capable to. You have excellent tools like reality checks and taking responsibility. You are an inspiration being with your integrity and heart.
I must admi that I truly interpreted your videos as there have been severe abuse, which I have also expressed in a couple of places - when it was just talked about as "cheating". Then later I've wondered if what I heard was abusive patterns at risk to develope in a really bad direction. Anyway it is clearly not healthy and I'm happy to hear that it will not continue. I was glad hearing A admitting that you didn't lie and that he has apologised.

For what it is worth, I believe being honest and open about abuse is always worth it. It helps so many people and saves lives. If you feel that isn't your journey, that is okay. But please be careful and don't feel any shame. Especially at this point in time, women need to speak up about the unacceptable ways men treat us so often. Keep thriving and be kind to yourself. ❤

It sounds like you have insecure attachment wounds. Please do not go back to him. Growing up in Scientology is a recipe for someone not to develop a secure attachment. You deserve better. He didn't do this to hurt you but he wasn't considerate of how this would hurt you. That matters.

She has a good heart and needs to put herself first. So she can raise healthy happy well adjusted children who don’t have to go through the pain of seeing her hurt. He said it himself. His personal life is no ones business and she needs to stay as far away as she can from Aaron because he seems to have a pattern. I love his Scientology stuff but needs to get his personal life back on a healthy track. But, players gonna play, cheaters gonna cheat. She has to feel she deserves better or she will never get treated better

If Jenna feels he’s truly remorseful and his apology was genuine that’s enough.
Regardless of if he’s hovering or not and however people are worried about what goes on behind the screens theirs no speculation on that & she’s decided to engage in that conversation so however the chips fall from that is just what happens. But going forward wheather she cuts ties completely or however that relationship is viewed the apology will always be tainted because it’s been forced, & Jenna can only guess if doing the right thing came from genuine remorse or as a form damage control from financial loss.
2025/01/16
@TheWobblyQueen:
It’s viewers loosing faith in the Aaron’s words because of his deception, his previous conduct, and him not acknowledge Rinders passing.
Because regardless of any relationship with the deceased or yourself former Scientologists weather they liked or loathed Mike would want to at least be informed of the former OSA head & board member of Aftermath passing.
He has failed in a duty of care to his viewers by allowing himself to be seen as an untrustworthy person.
Members of cos leaving are now in a position where family still involved can say that their source of information is untrustworthy ans they’d be right ! And this shouldn’t be the case.
Viewers can see a man who’s benefited from a woman by deceptive means. Intimately, In labour, and by taking time from her loved ones while also financially benefiting from broadcasting her cult trauma online.
We can see the parallels between his narcissistic behaviour and abuses carried out by COS
And though your concern & compassion for his finances is entirely valid and you may feel guilty.
Know that you gave your consent for your story to be broadcast by him in a professional context and you were that open and vulnerable to the camera because you had trust.
You did not consent for that video to be broadcast by someone who abused and violated your trust or your bodily autonomy.
He didn’t catalogue or remove your videos at the time of break up & continued to benefit from them financially knowing if you could turn back time, you would not necessarily said yes to an interview is you knew at the time of recording how the future would play out.
Their is no judgement, or malice in this post I just wanted to highlight aspects of Aarons channel failing you won’t have considered so you aren’t burdened and highlight the double standard at play here.
If at no point during your conversation were former collaborations brought up & what you wanted to happen with those videos ethically, Something’s still rotten. Because you are assuming fault for financial loss without acknowledgment of your part in the most rated content on the channel in your video.
An apology without reflection and change is hollow.
Wishing you all the best in health & healing xxx

He knew he had a family to provide for before, during and after he cheated.
No women should ever be forced in an open marriage so their sick pig man could get off.
Heather probably wants a divorce and she will still get money and her children will finally have peace.
He manipulated you, he used tears in combination with manipulation.
He just doesn't want this out because he loses a lot of money due to his actions.
Don't let him blame you.

@Underabluesky:
Now a video whining about why you were whining in the earlier videos? Really?
Pick a reason your channel exists and stay there.
Find a therapist. Have a conversation with them about your emotional immaturity and lack of self-control.
Look, the guy you were dating was an asshole. Fine. Newsflash. He won't be the last. He may not even be the worst.
If you keep turning your channel into Jenna's pity party roadshow, you are just going to have weirdos watching to see you suffer.
And forget any decent man showing up after. No one is going to take a chance on you if they know your "broadcast to the world" behaviour is a possibility.

You have very little experience, and a lot of baggage. I do too. I've only been with one man, and that divorce was 22 years ago. There is another person who is still expecting me to apologize for things he did, but I have been through enough healing and counseling to know it wasn't my fault. It is for other reasons I haven't dated since then, but I know I will have a lot of issues if I ever get involved with someone again.
You are still healing from the divorce from the father of your children, and now this new situation. The only people you need to take care of right now are your kids and yourself, no one else.

The cheating is not actually the concerning part in and of itself.
Hang in there. Protect yourself, your mind, and your heart.
Abusers aren’t monsters. There’s often reasons and trauma behind their abusive and controlling behavior. They’re flawed humans who need help. But that’s never a good enough reason to stick around. They have to truly and genuinely seak help and work hard on themself with a professional for years before they might be safe to have an intimate relationship with. Sometimes it’s best to love someone from afar.
Hang in there.

But as someone who watched Aaron for a few years and then started watching him derail, I think you need to put some distance in this for your own sanity and safety.
I don’t know if he’s having a mid-life crisis or what but in order for you and your family to not become another emotional casualty, I’d stay away from him for a while.
Even now, as you say you have had time to decompress, but it’s only been a few weeks.
I don’t know either of you but as someone who has watched you both, as a third party who has no stake in what you do or don’t do, that seems the safest course for your family and yourself. Take a vacation from Aaron. If he moves on, then you will know your original instinct was right.
FYI as someone who has lived for a while, your gut feeling is usually right once you learn to trust it.
I know you have been programmed to trust in a system and in certain people from your earliest years. Trust yourself. You saw what you saw, heard what you heard and no amount of spin can change that.
Also, you cant fix him. He has to change himself. So don’t even try. He’s not listening.

Please, please, talk to an abuse counselor and begin to understand what abusive behavior is and what you need to do to completely get out of it. You're really very vulnerable to the person who has abused you. They may not be aware of what they are doing. However, backing up and putting their concerns before yours is not the healthy direction that you need to be going in.
If anyone is close to this precious woman, 💜 please find a counselor that specializes in dealing with abusive relationships to help her. Denial of the degree to which she has been abused, along with making excuses for the situation is showing that she's still in the cycle of being abused.

P.S.: don't let anyone gaslight you into thinking your previous 2 videos that were removed were irrational. They were perfectly rational.
And you didn't need to mention the parts of the relationship that were good. Don't let "someone" bully you into thinking that that is rational or needs to be done or that by omitting that then you misrepresented the relationship. I didn't go to a doctor for 98% of last year...until I got hit by a car, and THEN I DID!! You don't need to balance out the perspective of the relationship. We assume there were good times. But you weren't speaking of the good times, you were speaking of the broken trust. I never bring my car to the mechanic & tell them what is working fine. I tell them what ISN'T working. That's all that you did. And there's nothing wrong with that. Please stay away from communicating with Aaron for the next 6-12 months. That's the best course of action while you are healing. I'm sorry this happened to you.

We are all daling with our own problems, having been part of a cult and having OSA agents fanning the flames doesn't help.
None of this is your fault though, do not apologize for the nonsense that goes on in the comunity, none of which you had started.

When you trivialize, indulge or forgive a narc, you just tell him that what he has done to you (and several others) is ok and all right.
The only sensible thing you can do is get away from him as fast as you can - and stay away forever. Don't let him get the opportunity to contact you, block all channels for him. He will do it again, and again as long as you stay in contact with him.

You can be in a one person cult in a personal relationship. Please be aware of this. The brainwashing, abuse, manipulation, gaslighting, is all familiar to you from Scientology. Even though it’s awful, it subconsciously feels like home.
I hope that you are not in a one person cult, and I’m not saying this in a condescending way, but I hope that you are in therapy. They can help you determine if your relationship is abusive through an objective lens.

Scientology does not foster good relationships. It makes people secretive, and forces people who do not know each other into relationships and then tears them apart. A couple relationship is just a good lifelong friendship with romance. You should not expect anything more from your friend. It takes a long time to understand and deal with childhood trauma. So cut yourself some slack. You are a good person and if people cant see that, you don’t need them around. We all do our best for the people we love and sometimes our best is not what we hoped it would be.❤

@thirtynine3955:
I will offer just one piece of advice. Do not blame yourself for what someone else has done. Yes, you and others fron the cult have had a "stunted growth" regarding emotions and how to deal with them. BUT, there are somethings that you just know. For example, you don't sleep with other people if you are in a relationship with someone you claim to love. That's not because of childhood trauma, that's because you're a thoughtless, inconsiderate a**hole.
If you think this person is 'the one' and you believe you can live with this hanging over you...then it's your life and your choice.
Just remember, he's shown you who he is. You should believe him.
Good luck

Only you know the answer. Being honest with yourself about the last question will give you your truth. Don't expect your love and empathy to disappear if you leave the situation.

Being a public figure is messy like that. You never encouraged any such behavior, you never called for anyone to do anything but listen to you. But people will react as they do, regardless of what you may want, and it can get out of hand.
That's what I understood from this video, at least. If I'm right, I get it.
I didn't get the feeling that you're taking him back, as some people seem to think, but honestly that's none of my business. I do think it would be a bad idea, but ultimately it's your choice.
Whatever you do, do it for yourself and your family, first and foremost - including taking down videos if you want.
Take care, now and always.

I'm sure you're not flawless, but you have to find someone who can accept that and doesn't escalate it. That's toxic. Sometimes people just don't belong together and it's nobodies fault. I hope you can move on from all the crap and live your new life more free. Truth makes you free.

Take the time to heal. You also don't need to be his friend.

You don’t have to talk about him in videos if that makes you feel like you’re not hurting him (you weren’t hurting him. His own actions hurt him) ok so that’s fine. But just know you can’t be friends with him. Don’t let him manipulate you into “let’s still be friends” - he’s just trying to get a foot in the door. He’s already begun the process. You may think your relationship is unique but unfortunately it is textbook. All the people in your comments who are telling you that know this from hard lived experience. We can’t see it until we have gotten some time and space from the situation. So please take the time and space you need.

I thought this video would say "People are using this for their own agenda when my priority is stopping scientology"
Toxic relationships use the same mental manipulation as cults do. Yes, of course, hurt people hurt people. But there's no excuse for it.
"Sorry" doesnt make someone safe to be in your life. I support a public truce, but stop saying you did something wrong. Honestly it could hurt other people he has hurt.

However, I did not unfollow either of you, but I did turn off notifications from his channel (his was only one of the few I had notifications set up on).
I can’t watch much of his videos because I feel he needs help. He’s always said he does need it, but after being in a cult for so many years, how can you survive life in the real world without some help.
Anyway, I’m keeping good thoughts for you and glad to see you are healing after this. You are a strong woman and I wish you all the best and stay strong. 💪 ❤

Please please do not invalidate yourself or your feelings. There being good in a relationship or someone doesnt cancel out the bad. Often if there is love-bombing that makes us fall back in love again on those love chemicals and then we downplay the bad that has happened, but the love-bombing always comes to an end and the abuse cycle will be back. These up and down cycles can really mess with our heads and create trauma bonds when the good is good you're on top of the world, but when its bad it is so painful and heartbreaking. You can acknowledge that there were good, but dont let it make you dismiss the bad or downplay it. It was very kind of you to take the videos down but I do really hope that you are not continuing the relationship or contact now. You say that other people may be twisting things, I share from lived experience. Not exactly the same type of scenario you are going through but I can see the cycle and I know it well. Myself and other commenters can see it more clearly than someone who is in it. I truly hope that you do go no contact and give yourself all the time you need to process this. Document everything so that you can keep track of things that can show you perhaps a pattern of how things went with you both.. Again, please, please do not invalidate how you were and are feeling. Life is too short to waste time on those that mess with our heads, maybe in time you will see. Wishing the best for you!
