It’s very difficult for a Real Housewife to admit her mistakes and be accountable for her words and actions. Dorinda Medley is the exception to that norm. There might be other Real Housewives that do the same, but no one else consistently comes to mind in all honesty. But anyway, Dorinda put up her blog entry following the most recent Real Housewives of New York City episode and she is saying what most of the viewers are thinking.
It really seems like Dorinda makes the effort to give an honest opinion no matter where her loyalties lie. She has no issue calling out her boyfriend for his mistakes, checking a close friend for her behavior, or even admitting if she does something wrong herself. Dorinda just wants to know why people can’t own what they do and just try to get along

It is such an awkward situation when your friends do not approve of or like your significant other. It’s no secret that most of the RHONY cast is not a fan of Dorinda’s boyfriend John Mahdessian and is very difficult for Dorinda to balance. At the same time, Dorinda does not have blinders up when it comes to John’s actions. In the beginning of her Bravo blog entry Dorinda wrote, “OK, this is going to sound awfully cliché but at this point, I feel everything we’ve been up to these past few weeks is just as old and as cliché. So here it goes: CAN’T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?!” Good question. I get her point, but that’s also not a show that I want to watch in all honesty. Nevertheless, I am over the ladies dragging out the same issues. I’m ready to move on to some new story lines.
Dorinda is not the kind of woman who defends her boyfriend no matter what. In her blog she shared what she really thought about John’s confrontation at the bra party with Bethenny Frankel: “I’ve said this before, so I’ll say it again since it bears repeating: John had no right, and it was truly out of line. So now he had to make up for it and be gracious and respectful. Take it from me — those two qualities are VERY rare in this day and age. Especially in this city, and even more so amongst our group.” It’s pretty big of her to admit this especially when she spends so much time defending John to the other Housewives and the viewers at home. It just shows that she makes an effort to be honest and avoid bias.
Dorinda also wrote, “Look, his apology attempt wasn’t done in the style I would have preferred; and Bethenny’s attempt at being gracious wasn’t done in the style I would have preferred either.” Dorinda always tells it like it is.
She also had some opinions on this annoying rift between Carole Radziwill and Luann de Lesseps. Once again, I really feel like she wrote what the fans have been thinking: “And on that, it’s quite obvious that Carole and Luann can’t move on from last year, something they’re BOTH guilty of and took way over-the-top — both online, on-camera, and in day-to-day. Fact is, they both needed to apologize to each other because it certainly wasn’t a one-way street.” She’s right. They’ve both made remarks about each other and they both should just own up to it, apologize, and move forward.
When it comes down to it, Dorinda is right. Just take responsibility for your actions and be nice to people. Hopefully everyone can just say worry for all of their wrongdoings and move on- to some fresh, new drama.
