Jenelle Evans is never single for long, and has even admitted to Dr. Drew Pinksy that she always feels like she needs to have a boyfriend for attention and validation. But her bad relationship habit of always going back to her troubled ex Kieffer Delp is not only bad for her emotional health — it’s also bad for her son Jace, 3!
On the March 4 episode of Teen Mom 2, Jenelle didn’t spend much time mourning the loss of her relationship to Gary Head, with whom she split after she found out he had hooked up with her BFF Tori (before they were officially dating).
In typical Jenelle fashion, just as her life is going well with school, goals and staying out of trouble, Jenelle gets sucked back into her old ways — namely, her on-again, off-again boyfriend Kieffer. She finds out that her ex is out of jail, and he wants to travel from New Jersey down to North Carolina to see Jenelle — if she pays for his bus ticket, of course.
When they are finally reunited, he says he has missed her, and hasn’t stopped thinking about her. She says she’s missed him too, and that seems to be all the confirmation Jenelle needs that Kieffer has “matured.” It doesn’t take much for Kieffer to worm his way back into Jenelle’s life.
But Jenelle fails to realize that Kieffer is just a master manipulator, and is only using her for her fame, money and roof over her head. Even mom Barbara Evans warns she better not go back to her old ways, especially since Kieffer tends to lead her into trouble, and lets her take the blame for it. Jenelle’s first arrest was thanks to Kieffer for breaking and entering into their friends’ parents house, which led to years of legal woes, probation and drug charges.
He convinces her to smoke weed even though she was on probation, and thought it was a good idea for her to steal her mom’s credit card so they can road trip up to New Jersey together. Jenelle can think for herself, but she seems to make a lot more bad decisions when Kieffer is involved.
Jenelle would rather be with a boyfriend — even someone like Kieffer who drags her down — than be single. And as much as she tries to convince her friends and family (who all care about her) that Kieffer brings her down, she still insists he’s a changed man.
Nearly a year after filming season four, Jenelle got married to Courtland Rogers, split from him, got back together with Gary, and is single once again. Now that she’s not with a boyfriend anymore, I just hope she doesn’t feel the need to get back together with Kieffer just to have someone in her life. Jenelle just got out of rehab, and is finally working on getting her life back on track and taking care of Jace.
Jenelle needs to take some time to be single, and focus on herself and her life with Jace. When the right guy comes along, he will only motivate her and encourage her in the right direction — not take advantage of her and manipulate her.
