I have a theory
It's a shallow theory but a theory nonetheless and I hate that I only get bad vibes from this man but I can't help it.
Jalen has never liked Monet romantically, she has always been and will continue to be nothing more than a pretty addition to his "influencer" portfolio because let's face it...Jalen was not the talk of the town until he got with Monet. Let's not forget that right around the time him and Monet started talking he was in other influencer girlies dms fishing for a content partn- I mean girlfriend and Monet got on the hook. This is not Jalen's first rodeo, his first public girlfriend was also an influencer before they got together and he moved away from his family to Nashville to live with this woman and her kids just making couples content with her and as soon as he got him a couple of followers on his page he left her ass claiming he wasn't not ready for kids but knew she had them from day one. And yes it is possible that he could've changed his mind about kids at the time but I still find it suspicious🤨. Jalen might be a phony but he's not stupid, he often uses therapy buzzwords to come off more intelligent, sophisticated, and emotional/ mentally mature than he really is and it fools Monet and her audience every time. Let's also throw in the fact that he admitted he does it for the camera literally searching tiktok for ideas on how to be the perfect boyfriend and Monet and her fans will eat it up refusing to see he is just sucking Monet dry until he doesn't need her anymore. It's sad because he doesn't have to try hard at all, Monet looks at this man like he is every star in the universe and would wear his skin if she could. I wouldn't be surprised if he effortlessly manipulates her on his way out and tries to convince her "this is what's best" or "I'm not really in the mental space for a serious relationship right now" and they have an "amicable" breakup so her followers don't tear his ass up. I bet even after they breakup (god forbid, not wishing hardship on anyone's relationship despite my feels about them) she STILL won't know that she was used. I just hope she comes out emotionally unscathed (she won't... but a girl can hope).
