I&#8217;ve been waiting to hit on her for a while now, but you know, the guy code and stuff. She&#8217;s definitely a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/stapleton-teen-uncomfortable-after-finding-out-mom-is-milf\/\" target=\"_blank\">MILF<\/a>&#8221; said Steve Gerbracht, 38, and a friend of Jodi and Bobby. Interviews with local residents did reveal that many were more interested in Jodi and Bobby&#8217;s apparent hotness than the emotional trauma that such a dramatic change would have on their lives. One of the couple&#8217;s friends, Becca Wiley had the same sentiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, Bobby is really hot. I&#8217;ve had a crush on him for about seven years now since we met at a Westerly Creek fundraiser. We were both married then, but I\u2019m not anymore, and he\u2019s in his situation. So fair game, right?&#8221; Jodi&#8217;s mother, Patty, is definitely upset about her daughter\u2019s break up. &#8220;It\u2019s so sad, you know, they were such a nice couple. The toughest thing that Evan and Ella (the kids) have had to face until now is having the same names as many other children their age. This is a big change for them. The good news is that Bobby and Jodi are a couple of hotties and with some luck, the two of them can find new partners without you know, having to go onto one of those online dating sites.&#8221; Bobby and Jodi were fairly dismissive when asked if the number of interested parties of the opposite sex factored into their decision to split. &#8220;We&#8217;ve been not getting along for a while now. Bobby rarely takes out the recycling and expects me to do the laundry most of the time. But, I guess it\u2019s nice that I have seen some guys that have seemed interested in me. I worry about how our kids will handle it. I think Bobby&#8217;s moving to Eastbridge which is totally new for the kids. That&#8217;s going to be a huge change for them. They hardly ever go over there except when we go to the Rec Center,&#8221; said Jodi. Friends say that Bobby and Jodi already have made separate plans for Spring Break and Summer and that the kids are looking forward to meeting some of their new &#8220;friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6892","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-144","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6892","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6892"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6892\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8015,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6892\/revisions\/8015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6892"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
