The Lindquists

The only reason they’d get a divorce is if dan grew some balls and left. She will never leave her kushy lifestyle and be known as a divorced woman. I can’t believe they conceived 2 children during this toxicity and are trying for a third. She’s one of the most toxic wives I’ve watched in a while. I really feel for dan. He doesn’t stand up for himself and say, hey, what you’re saying right now is really hurtful and I need you to change how you speak about me. He just sits there and lets her shit on him. I hope he gets some courage to stand up for himself. I don’t think she’d know what to do with herself if he ever did.

I agree she won’t leave him. She needs his financial stability (and sperm lol)

I agree with the label of toxic. I can’t believe someone so selfish, hurtful, and controlling is running a channel with a brand of “empowerment” and “uplifting women”. It makes me question her intentions for being this “wellness” channel and wonder if she really cares about helping women, OR if she’s just playing the game to try and build a brand that will gain her views. The way she talks about vlogging and gaining viewers and worrying about her career makes everyone sound like just $$ for her.

I don’t care that she isn’t perfect. I like imperfection. But she claims to be an expert at everything, is so smug and self rightous, and wants to be seen as a fitness/mom guru. Then other times she wants sympathy and to be relatable for her imperfections. I’ve said it before - these things don’t mix. Commit to your brand and be authentic.

She's projecting a lot in Part I, like saying that Dan didn't even care to ask her about her pre-cancerous moles. Probably because, as a doctor (a vet, but still, he knows the basics) he was aware that she was being dramatic about the situation and that it wasn't as serious as she made it out to be.

Their marriage hasn't recovered. It's hasn't been long enough, and Elle is talking about it like she's still in the thick of it, not like someone who has come out on the other side. She cares more about her image than about Dan. It's obvious there is no love there. She only sees the relationship from her own side and what she can get out of it. She never once expressed caring about Dan's feelings during their potential divorce, just how it would affect her vlogging, viewers, and image.

Also, all the problems in their marriage seemed to come from Elle's machinations. It seems like Dan never changed at all and was always there for her. She was the one creating all the issues.

I’ve been watching Elle’s channel since the hair to heels days, off and on but I have kept in touch on her channel. I am not shocked at all by their marriage troubles as it was so evident in their vlogs since summer 2017 that there were major issues going on behind the scenes. I kept hoping that she would take a break from YouTube to fix her relationship (and her head) but she just keeps changing her image, her personality, her hair and HER VOICE. She’s a different person every six months. Just last year she was a “fitness guru” then a “hip, trendy mom” and now she’s trying to be a “raw, authentic, plant based, self-help” guru. Once she realizes she’s not going to make any money off of this persona she will move onto something else. I’m all for self improvement and moving on but this lady is just ridiculous. You can’t believe anything she says. These two vlogs about their marriage, she makes it seem that “all is good now” between them but in reality they probably just had a break through like six weeks ago and I would hardly call that “fixed”. She’s in major denial. If they have had 5 years of bad marriage does she really think a couple of months of therapy will make it all better. I’m not even going to dissect her one way conversation from the two 25 minute vlogs because I could write pages on it!! Sadly, I’m sure she only posted them because she was hoping they would go viral for being so RAW and AUTHENTIC. I swear, she just posts these videos to rattle some viewers so she can then have THOUSANDS of people comment on how wonderful she is. She needs constant praise. You ever notice how she’s always commenting on how everyone thinks she’s so hilarious and funny! I think she’s mentioned it like 5 times the past month. I’m sure she will have an entire chapter in her “book” about how funny and raw and authentic she is... God, someone call Dr. Phil because this woman needs an intervention.

[Refrigerator_Light]

Man, she’s something else! She’s going through and deleting all of the negative comments (while claiming she has stopped reading them....).

I feel so bad for Dan- she lured him in hook, line and sinker!

[Princessyen12]

This definitely didnt go the way she planned. She was expecting people to commend her on her authenticity and being so real and open and it completely backfired into people saying she is an abusive spouse who belittles her husband.

[starstoshame]

I usually don't post much on here, just read. But I CAN'T with these latest relationship videos.

I honestly can't handle the people commenting telling her how HONEST, and BRAVE she is for talking about this. I don't care if your marriage is better now, or if you claim that you've both agreed to share this "to help someone else". Like another said, I would understand if this was a year+ in the past and they'd been in a good place for a while now, but damn, she can't even wait a few months after counseling to announce it all? It makes me think she's doing it for the attention and views she hopes it will bring.

And her excuses as to why Dan looks so blank during the whole video is that he was driving, a quiet guy, and doesn't have much to say. HA. She barely lets him speak, and when she does, it seems like he's pretty capable of expressing his thoughts. But I can't IMAGINE sitting there listening to my husband rant about how he didn't actually want to marry me and felt sick at the thought. Like, did she have to repeat it 75 times and go into extreme detail about how sick to her stomach she was about marrying Dan? In front of him and to the whole world? That just seemed so unnecessary and it made me feel so sad for Dan. I'm sure she's telling the truth about how disconnected he's been lately, but that doesn't give you an excuse to focus entirely on his end of mistakes and shortcomings and not really say a single thing about yourself except for that you were having bad anxiety and have a fear of vulnerability... okay? Most people deal with that on some level. It's not a flaw, Elle.

And yet everything she said about Dan was just so... mean? Unfeeling? It seemed like there was still some unhinged negative feelings there that she clearly hasn't completely worked through.

I honestly think she's the most selfish person I've seen in the vlogging community. It must be utterly exhausting to be her.

[starstoshame]

She honestly has to good examples in her life of what a truly healthy relationship, or marriage for that matter, looks like.

[TeachIT]

She put on instastories that she’s still deciding if she’s going to stay online.

[Princessyen12]

100% backfire. I think she will announce in a dramatic way that she isnt going to do YouTube/social media anymore. She will come back though because she needs all the asspats ro make herself feel good. She also cant give up the views on her infertility videos. They are really the only ones pulling in views right now.

[TeachIT]

But how can she push infertility now? Everyone will just comment and tell her to work on her marriage first lol

[whiterose90]

She won't leave Youtube or social media she needs that money for herself in case her and Dan separate. Didn't she say one of her fears was how dependent she is on him monetarily? Although in reality he would have to pay her alimony & child support and she would get the house so she would be more than fine.

[Nacholife]

There is no way she will quit ! She just posted on Instagram a photo of her with a pig .... After reading her comments she posted on Instagram I don’t see her quitting. She’s getting too much attention and that just fuels her more. She’s so over dramatic and is just milking this current attention for all it’s worth. If she really wanted to work on her marriage she should quit for that reason alone and not because she feels her image is tarnished.

That seems a bit ridiculous, considering it seems like there are more people supporting her in the video comments than questioning her. But she does seem like the type to focus on the negative instead of the positive.

[Nacholife]

Why wouldn’t she just turn off comments from her two marriage vlogs.... oh wait, because she craves the attention she gets no matter if it’s good or bad.

Part 1 has 581 likes and 51 dislikes.
Part 2 has 607 likes and 37 dislikes.

The people commenting negative things aren't just haters and trolls coming over, writing a mean comment, and disliking her videos. They're viewers, and there's a huge majority of people encouraging her. Honestly, I don't think I can watch her after this if she continues vlogging. The videos were one thing, but how she's handling this situation is just immature.

[TeachIT]

Dan posted a vlog this morning. Cringe.

[Nacholife]

Dan has spoken ! It was so amazing to see and hear Dan speak, too bad Elle couldn’t give him the spotlight for once and still had to eject herself in the vlog for the last 8 minutes. He was doing just fine. I still can’t get over how upset she was over the negative feedback, I’m scratching my head on this. She wants to be REAL, RAW and AUTHENTIC but yet she doesn’t want to hear any real, raw or authentic comments? She made a reference in her previous vlog about “those Christian” vloggers (we all know who she was throwing under the bus here) and how they are always so happy and life is wonderful and she put them down for that ! Talk about being a hypocrite. Just because other families choose to be more positive and give people a break from their every day lives, and you know are HAPPY in their lives, she puts them down for it. A lot of people watch Youtubers to break away from their every day lives, not to watch a mom who hasn’t washed her hair and is still wearing pajamas making a green smoothie everyday. If a 37 year old woman can’t handle social media than she shouldn’t be on it, makes me worried for all the young kids out there who have way more subscribers and viewers handle the attention. I never see the bigger Christian family vloggers dwell on the youtube hate, they obviously know how to handle it. She should step back from YouTube and re-evaluate what’s more important to her, her ego or her mental wellbeing. Sorry if I seem I’m ranting but these vlogs but everyone is just sitting back watching her mentally blow up.

That was painful to watch. Yikes. She should leave YouTube for sure. If you can't handle MILD criticism then get out, girl. No one was threatening her physically LOL that cracked me up. She's making it so dramatic.

It's a good thing many people don't watch her videos, a few thousand people still tune in even though she has over 100k which is sad, but I don't know if she'd be able to handle having more subscribers and more viewers. The more people watching, the more criticism she is going to get. I'll never understand why people become daily vloggers tbh
