Love After Lockup: Donna Sees An Opportnity To Break Up Louie & Melissa
Donna Fojut has made her feelings abundantly clear about how she feels about her son Louie Fojut and Melissa Picariello’s relationship. She has not cared for her son’s girlfriend since day one, and now she sees an opportunity to cut Melissa out of the picture.
The former Love After Lockup inmate’s mom was thrilled when she heard that Melissa and Louie were having issues. So she began making moves to introduce her son to a few other women she felt may be more suitable for him.
Donna hates that Melissa wants Louie to leave her behind and move to New Jersey. But now that Melissa has second thoughts about continuing her relationship with Louie, Donna is ready to act.
Louie Disappoints His Mother?
It is no huge secret that Louie’s mom worships the ground he walks on. If she had her way, her son would continue living with her at home for the rest of her life. But Louie is searching for more. Now that he is out of prison, he dreams of moving to New Jersey with his Love After Lockup partner, Melissa, and starting a life and possibly a family with her.
Oddly enough, he is now receiving some resistance from the New Jersey native on this. Melissa told Louie that she needed some space and time to figure things out. She is starting to see that the high school Louie she had a huge crush on is not quite the guy she dreamed he would be.
Louie’s mom sees this as a golden opportunity. So she starts introducing her son to a few women she is pre-screening. Donna wants a woman for Louie that sees things her way. That will love and respect her thoughts, opinions and needs as well as her son.
