#RHONJ Star Siggy Flicker Reveals Why She Refuses To Play Margaret Josephs’ ‘Toxic’ Game!
Siggy Flicker is out to set the record straight — The Real Housewives of New Jersey star banged and bruised by a friendship gone wrong.
Siggy opens up in her Bravo blog, sharing her thoughts and clarifying misconceptions about her relationship struggle with cast rookie, Margaret Josephs.
“Once I observe and realize that a person is toxic, I’m done. I won’t break bread with toxic people. I can’t. No one can order me to associate or attend when I hit that threshold unless the toxic person reaches out. It is devastating to see the truth play out before my eyes. Margaret says she doesn’t know why I’m upset, that she’ll be the bigger person. Here are some of Margaret’s comments to or about me so far.”
- “I looked up man in the dictionary, and I didn’t see a picture of Michael Campanella there.”
- “Siggy, known as Soggy Flicker, with all the crying.”
- “Soggy Flicker, I’m crying all night.”
- “Take it f—ing down a notch.”
- “I mean, if [Siggy] says it’s ‘cause she had no f—ing uterus . . . “
- “I think [Siggy] actually owes us an apology.”
- “I mean, [Siggy] is psychotic.”
- “[Siggy] really has to grow up.”
- “[Siggy] is the highest level of insanity.”
- “Yesterday, [Siggy] was having a stage five.”
- “There’s literally a shrine in [Siggy’s] house.”
- “It’s not a big deal, this isn’t high school.”
- “Sometimes [Siggy] don’t walk the walk.”
- “For someone who makes a living telling people to walk away from toxic people…she’s the height of hypocrisy.”
- “You don’t need another Dolores to be yes, yes, yess”
- “I can’t tell the two apart—Dolores is so up Siggy’s ass lately. I can’t tell the difference.”
Siggy takes on Margaret’s definition of “friend,” and sounds off about the complicated history that spurred the drama swirling around the flailing friendship.
“How would you react if you discovered your friend targeted your husband, your friend, your profession, and your hysterectomy while continuously spouting, “I’m always the bigger person, I can get past anything. I don’t even know what she’s upset about?”
“How would you react if you discovered your “friend” was telling people that you were upset over a trivial morning of “yoga” without identifying the heart-wrenching memorial for Teresa’s mother?”
“How would you react if you discovered your “friend” called to invite you to her party seconds after laughing and mocking you in the presence of Melissa and Danielle and while rolling her eyes and laughing during the telephone conversation?”
Margaret has been letting her mouth and pigtails fly, slamming Siggy — the relationship guru points out many cheap shots made by Margaret.
“Unlike Margaret who came to my dinner party and immediately insulted me and my home, I will not enter her home unless I truly want to be there. I don’t go to parties to insult or upset the host, so I respectfully declined. The way I conduct myself doesn’t change for maximum impact or to undermine anyone in the group.”
“Unlike Margaret, I don’t revel in fanning the flames during a disagreement. She loves saying things like “I’m not the only one who thinks like this” to legitimize her position while trying to cast doubt in my mind about my friends. She loves targeting my bond with my friends, especially Dolores, because she knows Dolores sees her for what she is.”
Twitter can be a hotbed of drama — Siggy explains she minimized the negativity by blocking Margaret on social media.
“The only way to win with a toxic person is to not play their game. That’s why I blocked Margaret on social media and declined her party invite. Unfortunately, I don’t have the option of walking away from her forever…yet. We both agreed to move forward at the diner. Let’s see if she means it or if it’s just a ploy to get me back into the ring.”
Siggy concludes her blog on a positive note — cheering on co-star Teresa Giudice.
“On a happier note, it warms my heart that Teresa and I were able to express our concerns and apologize to each other. I had hoped you would see more of Teresa’s side of the conversation instead of it appearing as a Siggy monologue.”
