She was SHALLOW and MATERIALISTIC, period. No other way to explain it. And no one should disagree

Welllllllll, she was a strong woman that knew what she wanted. She worked, she supported herself. So she liked to dress nice and have nice things, what's wrong with that?

Nothing but you just end up being alone-lol

in what ways was she those things? point out your views on that please.

I don't see how Wilona was shallow and materialistic. She was an independent woman who had her own. She didn't need a man telling her what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. Marriage is a partnership, not a dictatorship in which she was trying to convey to those knuckleheads who kept coming to her sideways instead coming correct. We are no longer in the 20th century. Women are more educated now and make enough money to hold the fort down themselves and raise the kids too. True, every woman wants a good man, who doesn't. But if they can't accept her being independent instead of being dependent, then oh well, that's their problem. Yeah, I said it!

If she was truly materialistic, she would have married Frank in a heartbeat to get out of the ghetto and provide for her daughter and stay at home. I don't know what other definitions of materialistic there are, but what I just posted would be a good example. She thought abt Penny and up-rooting her, etc. she put her daughter first...a woman who was materialistic wouldn't even bother adopting another woman's child.

Well there was the ep when she didn't want to go out with Walter because of his handicap. She was all into him until she found that out.

i agree that may have made her look shallow, however, I think she cleared things up when she said later on that she believed he would want to take things further and it would look like she didn't want him anymore BECAUSE of his handicap. If she knew right off the bat he would only want to be friends and have time together, she wouldn't have an issue. But that has nothing to do with her actually being shallow nor does it deal with materialism.

Solomon, she was in no way shallow and materialistic. You are trippin'! lol

Willona said herself she wanted a Good Looking man to take care of her-lol

Irene had a perfect example, about refusing to take Frank's hand out. Willona was not materialistic and even if she was, she changed by season 5.

Remember she only turned him down because of Penny

She turned him down because she actually wanted to work, not hang out at the country club.

Exactly. she put her child FIRST before herself. That is not being shallow nor materialistic. That is being a MOTHER.

Just like that guy that wanted to marry her, you guys were talking about Frank, I think this was a different guy. He didn't want her to work and she wanted to. Then he bought the boutique for her and said she could run it and not really have to "be there that much" and she didn't want any part of that. And like everyone's been saying, shallow people don't adopt children.

Nothing but you just end up being alone-lol
And like I said, what's wrong with that? We don't all need to be chained to someone, lol.

Like Willona said, "There's a difference between being alone and being lonely..." She wasn't lonely.

Solomon, you have yet to give any plausible examples for this thread. I expected to see alot of reasons, from you, why you stated she is materialistic and/or shallow.

I'm mainly talking about the Pre-Penny Era. I should have narrowed it down that Willona was shallow from seasons 1 to 4.

OK Here is a Shallow Example.


"Flo I went out with his guy last night, he was 6 foot 2, shoulders out to here, and a smile that lit up the Night, until he mugged me-lol.


Then he was saying that she didn't want to go to the wedding because he would she would end up dancing with a 5 foot guy who is BALD.

Do you expect her to be with a guy THAT MUGGED HER????

She was making up excuses for the wedding because she knows how it is at weddings when family/friends try to set you up with ANYBODY...instead of understanding you enjoy living your life SINGLE. How would anyone feel? I remember being single after my divorce and certain people trying to get me to "meet" certain guys etc. I made up excuses too. Reason was, I will look when I was ready...not have a guy shoved in my face and then deal with crap I wasn't ready to deal with.

What I was saying Irene is she was so HUNG UP on what he looked like and it turned out that he was a mugger. Maybe the guy who was 5 feet tall and Bald woudn't have mugged her at all-lol

maybe, maybe not, but her interest wasn't in finding Mr. Right...not at that moment in time. She had men in her life that for one reason or another were not good men. I don't blame her. A woman who has dealt with a "bad" man is either going to be careful or is going to jump into the arms of the same kinda man she just got rid of. The mind of a woman is nothing to be messing with.

Well you have to admit that James was right when he said "Willona's problem is she that she is too picky and women play hard to get they don't get GOT-LOL

She has a right to be picky. she wasn't picky the first time she got married and look what happened. I was picky too. I deserve to be. I have alot to offer a man and I am not abt to just give it to any person. I gave up a boyfriend who was materialistic and always talking abt his money: BORING!!!!!!
