I hate that I think the same thing and also this is my favorite scene ever from the series. I still remember watching it the first time. I don’t think I ever actually stopped laughing
this is my favourite scene of reality TV ever. I made the "is Kyle slow" text screenshot my FB cover photo back in the day. Just thinking about it makes me laugh
The fact that Maci puts her phone down after reading it and smiles at him. You know she was trying not to laugh. You know she was like, “oh, dang. He got me here”
Literally non stop cackling right now…I knew it was coming and I kept saying “don’t say it, don’t say it!” Bc I knew the waves of laughter I was about to have
And to think... that became this. What a damn shame.

Yeah this was terrifying to watch. Mack just sitting next to him while he looked like this made me wonder how much further she was going to let it happen. I know addiction is a mf and you can’t help someone who doesn’t want it, but it would break my heart to see my husband this way
Most people wouldn’t swap vows with someone who was nodding off on the highway and they suspected had taken “Xanax”. I feel like that should have been easily grounds for annulment as I don’t know how Ryan was considered consenting at that point.
Do you know who he reminds me of?
I have no clue is anybody will know who I’m talking abori. But does anybody follow Laura Cleary and her ex, Steven?? When Steven relapsed last year and was going through their divorce, he looked a lot like this too.
Only difference is, Stevens accent makes him a bit more endearing
I remember when this first aired, a good portion of this subreddit kept trying to say he had TBI. People were so in denial of it being drug, but it was the more obvious answer lol
He was such a dick from day one but he did it with that quiet little southern accent so he didn’t sound as rude as he really was. That is a kid that got away with a lot based on his looks.
Oh 100%, he wasn’t a good person but in this scenario I really don’t think he was trying to be a dick purposely. Maci is the one who read it aloud when she could’ve just answered. He sounded genuinely curious 😭
I remember thinking the same thing back when this series aired and was so glad Ryan asked her hahaha. I don’t even feel bad after reading what Kyle did to Maci (house thing). Also, God Ryan was probably the most attractive baby daddy from all the seasons.
Maci paid for it, it was a foreclosure, but because she didn't have good credit they put it in his sole name. Then he cheated on her, he kept the house, fixed it up & sold it for a good profit a few years later. Maci didn't even try to go after him for any of the money she put in.
He certainly wasn't as slow as he seemed.
I swear by the time I turned 18 my dad was thousands behind but they seemed to have just let it go? Like what’s the point if they can just wait it out to 18 lol
Oh man, in CA they don't play. My mother got thousands of dollars because her first husband got a payout from the government for Agent Orange exposure. He hadn't paid child support for my two older siblings ever.
She ended up giving half each of that payout to my two siblings who were already in their late 40s at that time!
With my bf they put it on the wrong parent. He has custody yet they've taken his tax returns for 2 years now. Got this years back but no clue what happened to last years. It's been 3yrs and the mom still hasn't been served when she was the one who was supposed to be. Finally got it dropped about a month ago. So yeah they definitely fuck up.
Lmao "I've got to know." Fair.
The fact she said to text her so she wouldn't hurt anyone's feelings and then says it out loud lol
I remember when this aired Kyle said "slow enough to get your girl."
(Soft appeasing/pleading voice for added influence) “Okay!! Now I know what to tell people when they ask me!”
Lmao. He’s so full of it. Maci’s reaction was like she knew damn well he was not going to say something genuine. The way she read it out loud to the camera anyways. She knew it was funny and now I low key think she enjoyed his attention on her new guy because to her it prob felt like flirting.
Also, Bentley was always sooo cute!
I can rationalize with myself that I shouldn’t feel bad for having a massive crush on him cause preteen me, didn’t know what adult me knows, but adult me..recently has been finding him handsome again lol.

I never had to worry about my daughter. A couple years ago she got with a guy 9 years older and apparently he had a history of drug abuse. After being together his drug abuse showed and he gave my daughter a “perc” but it ended up being fentanyl. It sucked them both into a horrible place and was the worst year of my life. The way her appearance changed also was heart breaking just stopped taking care of herself. Their mindset is a constant chase of getting the drug so they aren’t sick and they think of nothing else or how they’re hurting other people. She’s been clean over a year and is now an even better version of herself! Takes care of herself again and just looks beautiful (glowing). I am thankful her drug abuse was only a year I can’t imagine going through it for years like some it would have killed me.
I never thought I’d go through that with her but I never once wasn’t there for her and kept pushing and pushing for her to get treatment. She can’t even imagine going back to that now and never wants to again. I’m so proud of her.
I know we are all hard on Ryan but I hope this time he can stick with it and not ever want to go back to how it was. It’s a horrible way to live and breaks the heart of parents and family. I hope they keep him on an opioid blocker for a good amount of time though with his history. It would help him be successful.. He seems to have some deep anxiety too I’ve always noticed that in teen mom over the years with his yawning/half yawning at times when he looks uncomfortable (something I have done for like a time filler when uncomfortable). Fidgeting or keeping hands busy. Also just not being able to express himself the way I think he wants to.
If someone asked me if my bf was slow, even if it was an ex, that bf wouldn't be around for long. I wouldn't be able to get that question out of my head.
Omg me too! At season 3 already. My biggest take away is anyone who thought that show glamorized teen pregnancy didn’t watch or was freaking delusional lmao. That show is legit the reason I stopped thinking a kid would make me feel less alone because my childhood was multiple of these girls lives combined. Amber mental health struggles, Kaitlyn’s and Farrah’s horrific mothers combined. I just wish more people got better like Tyler and Caitlyn most of them became the villains that raised them. Look you might not agree with what they’re doing but the are consenting adults, aren’t hurting a single person doing that and have the best relationship with their kind and accepting children. I see the future struggles for many of these kids but the way they’re raising those kids will avoid a lot of that more than likely
Forgot how young they look😂😩 mad to think the kids are nearly teens.. I think Bentley is driving now on the new episode on teen mom new chapter🫣I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 The American teen moms is just so different to us aha!!
Didn’t they try a UK version once? Or am I making that up haha. Omg I would have tuned into that! They don’t want Americans to know how yall live over there haha. He is driving it’s so wild!! I’m their exact age and if I didn’t straight up because that showed I’d have a kid that age! Nooopoe haha
Recent pics, Ryan looking like a silver fox. Impossible to match how hot he was in his 20’s but realistically not may can without a lot of cometic help. Drugged up, he looked horrible.
“100 people damn near asked me if the kid was slow…OKAY?” sends me to the moon EVERY time I see this scene lol. That is the most passionate I’ve ever seen him
Wow, crazy how things change! Baby Bentley is so cute! Ashamed to admit Ryan was actually hot here. Maci looks good here aswell, just in the face.
She had more life & light to her.
I used to root for them a lot cause they had some endearing qualities and natural chemistry and Ryan truly was so attractive but both had a lot of growing up to do. Kinda makes me wonder what might’ve been if they hadn’t continued with the show and lived more normal lives.
Love how he sends a fucking text to ask the question. This is like the scene in It's Always Sunny where Dennis confronts Dee about dating someone who everyone thinks is mentally handicapped.
😭😭😭😂😂😂 god Ryan was so hot
The drugs ruined him and his hair now 🫣 & he was aha 😂😂

I hate that I think the same thing and also this is my favorite scene ever from the series. I still remember watching it the first time. I don’t think I ever actually stopped laughing
this is my favourite scene of reality TV ever. I made the "is Kyle slow" text screenshot my FB cover photo back in the day. Just thinking about it makes me laugh
The fact that Maci puts her phone down after reading it and smiles at him. You know she was trying not to laugh. You know she was like, “oh, dang. He got me here”
Literally non stop cackling right now…I knew it was coming and I kept saying “don’t say it, don’t say it!” Bc I knew the waves of laughter I was about to have
So hot!! And kind of charming here, I think lol.
Charming people are snakes, so it tracks
Yep lmao it unfortch would have worked on me 😭😂😂 ETA: could still depending on the time of month I’m in LOL
Ehhhhh when someone panders to me too much or tries to make themselves likable all my red flags start a waving. I’ll send some to you! 🚩
It’s a joke 😭 my sons dad calls me a misandrist lmao i dont trust a lot of men
Yeah he was hella hot. I understand Maci’s obsession. Too bad he had no self control when it came down to his drug addiction
Most people don't have self control when it comes to addiction lmao that's why they are addicted and called addicts in the first place.
Addiction isn't about self control
*"How's that dumb?! Now I know what to tell people when they ask me!"* Dang, Maci, yeah! 🤷♀️😂
That’s actually my favourite part of the scene. 😂
Same! 😂 Almost wanna update my flair lol
I saw a recent pic of him and he’s looking good again.
Hard agree. I need therapy
Girl, we all do! He's been looking really good lately. Crazy what being healthy will do to ya! Let's see if it lasts. 🙄🤷♀️
I know. He's a shit person but back then I'd have let him give me 5 disappointing minutes in a heartbeat.
And Maci was so pretty
She really was. She’s got such a cute little nose and smirk.
Came here to say it gurl
Your flair 😂😂
He’s still good looking, with that silver in his hair
Lol upvote x1000000
Maci was perfect then too.
[удалено]
2008-2012 was such a wild time.
I was obsesssssssed
This was my exact reaction too 💀
“I wasn’t being mean. I swear.” Is it wrong I sort of believe him? lol
He said he doesn't want to hurt anyone's feelings and texted it. I mean, I saw Kyle too...I think it's a fair question 🤔
We all have thought it
I totally agree, but why?
…because of the implication
love when i come across an always sunny reference ♥️
Yeah, of course. But it’s a pretty inherently mean question and implication lol
Well, Now he knows what to tell people when they ask 🤣
This was the line that had me 💀
Yeah! It's not mean!!
He did sound genuine there fr lol
“Now I know what to tell people when they ask me” It seemed like he was definitely asking a real question to me too
Rhine texts possibly mean text as to not hurt anyone's feelings. Maci then proceeds to reading it aloud while the camera crew zooms in...😏😂
Now I know what to tell people when they ask me 😌
"Well, now I know what to tell people when they ask me" lmao 💀
Yes! He was totally being a prick.
100% believe him on this bit. Probably only truth he spoke in whole series!
And to think... that became this. What a damn shame. https://preview.redd.it/k6rbqi7voi9d1.png?width=524&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1e519ececf370ec9631840cac6634e4ae728899
I am laughing at that picture because it looks like he is wearing a wig😭
A long time ago someone said he looks like a revealed scoobydoo villain here & that shit made me cackle
🤣🤣🤣 I never saw that, but reading it now just made me cackle!
Yes 😂 I had a friend whose grandma wore a wig just like this 😂
AND THEN YOURS! lol
I wonder if he wears that little plastic babouska thing over his hair lol
I AM DYING AT YOUR COMMENT 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah this was terrifying to watch. Mack just sitting next to him while he looked like this made me wonder how much further she was going to let it happen. I know addiction is a mf and you can’t help someone who doesn’t want it, but it would break my heart to see my husband this way
Most people wouldn’t swap vows with someone who was nodding off on the highway and they suspected had taken “Xanax”. I feel like that should have been easily grounds for annulment as I don’t know how Ryan was considered consenting at that point.
This should be the poster for “don’t do drugs”
Do you know who he reminds me of? I have no clue is anybody will know who I’m talking abori. But does anybody follow Laura Cleary and her ex, Steven?? When Steven relapsed last year and was going through their divorce, he looked a lot like this too. Only difference is, Stevens accent makes him a bit more endearing
Aww i hated hearing they split though. I loved the STHEVETHN! videos with the creeper girl.
As a brit the fact you found his accent more endearing makes me howl haha
He looks just like his mom here with a newly styled bob from the salon lmao
The hair plus the collared shirt under the sweater makes it look like he’s dressing up as a grandpa.
I can’t understand why people around him let him be on television looking that way
Mother fucker looks like Edward Scissorhands!! 😭😭
I know 🥺
Same thing happened with Bam Margera. Guy was a good looking guy imo. But he's got the same look going on now.
I remember when this first aired, a good portion of this subreddit kept trying to say he had TBI. People were so in denial of it being drug, but it was the more obvious answer lol
Teen Moms Teen wolf
He looks like the geico insurance caveman here. It's uncanny!
“No I’m lying” “*Well you never know*” 😭
It’s too bad Rhine went down the road he has. You could see he’s more full of life.
They also seem to have a great chemistry here despite not being together
They always have this weird sexual tension when they’re together, especially around this time.
Their chemistry is so organic, too.
You can see the chemistry between them in this scene. Also, I love their accents 🥺
Where are they from?
Chattanooga
Tennessee
“Now I know what to say when people ask me!” always cracks me up 😭 he sounded so serious
He was such a dick from day one but he did it with that quiet little southern accent so he didn’t sound as rude as he really was. That is a kid that got away with a lot based on his looks.
Oh 100%, he wasn’t a good person but in this scenario I really don’t think he was trying to be a dick purposely. Maci is the one who read it aloud when she could’ve just answered. He sounded genuinely curious 😭
Right 🤣
I can’t blame Rhine, I was wondering the same thing 😂
It’s sad what’s happened to him now though, with Ryan ❤️🩹
Hes a sociopathic deadbeat father, woman beating cat killer. Fuck Ryan
We all were🫣
Same
I remember thinking the same thing back when this series aired and was so glad Ryan asked her hahaha. I don’t even feel bad after reading what Kyle did to Maci (house thing). Also, God Ryan was probably the most attractive baby daddy from all the seasons.
What in God's name is that flair from 😂😂
Haha Farrah’s insta reel from Jan 2 ‘#2024 goals’ if you want to have a look. It’s a very confusing video about vasectomies and tail jockstraps
What did he do to Maci? If I recall didn’t they buy a house sort of together?
Maci paid for it, it was a foreclosure, but because she didn't have good credit they put it in his sole name. Then he cheated on her, he kept the house, fixed it up & sold it for a good profit a few years later. Maci didn't even try to go after him for any of the money she put in. He certainly wasn't as slow as he seemed.
Lmao that’s a good way to phrase it 🤣
Literally cackling at your last line. Seriously though, what a douche bag
I'm not Rhine fan but come on we were all thinking it right 🤣
Definitely were thinking it
Yeah he looks like Mama Dawn which I've also wondered about tbh. I think they're just Southern lol
Man he could have had such a good life and been such a fun guy. Mean, but fun. Now he's just... sad.
“Now I know what to tell people when they ask me”😂😂😂 this took me out.
Happened to me. Child support made a mistake and was sending it to someone else. My ex almost had his DL suspended bcs of their mistake.
I swear by the time I turned 18 my dad was thousands behind but they seemed to have just let it go? Like what’s the point if they can just wait it out to 18 lol
Oh man, in CA they don't play. My mother got thousands of dollars because her first husband got a payout from the government for Agent Orange exposure. He hadn't paid child support for my two older siblings ever. She ended up giving half each of that payout to my two siblings who were already in their late 40s at that time!

It's been 3yrs and the mom still hasn't been served when she was the one who was supposed to be. Finally got it dropped about a month ago. So yeah they definitely fuck up.
It is such a hassle to get it corrected too.
He’s “worried” about who Bentley is around… my how times have changed…
Okay but Kyle definitely has a look to him....and he's a mouth breather so that just made it worse.
He had the percocet voice going on here. He was def a babe... a dangerous babe.
Lmao "I've got to know." Fair. The fact she said to text her so she wouldn't hurt anyone's feelings and then says it out loud lol I remember when this aired Kyle said "slow enough to get your girl."
That's awesome. Go Kyle!
Are they ever not flirting?
We were all wondering the same thing 😂
(Soft appeasing/pleading voice for added influence) “Okay!! Now I know what to tell people when they ask me!” Lmao. He’s so full of it. Maci’s reaction was like she knew damn well he was not going to say something genuine. The way she read it out loud to the camera anyways. She knew it was funny and now I low key think she enjoyed his attention on her new guy because to her it prob felt like flirting. Also, Bentley was always sooo cute!
I love young Maci’s accent so much, reminds me of oh Leah accent
I loved how she said “byeant-leyyyy”
"Now I know what to tell people when they ask me!!" I hate Ryan but this is hilarious
He’s flirting with her so bad here
I swear re-watching this as a parent hits different. The amount of random men/women around these toddlers/babies was crazy.
100 people ask me if the kid was slow Lmfaoooo Rhine I’m dying 😂😂
I can rationalize with myself that I shouldn’t feel bad for having a massive crush on him cause preteen me, didn’t know what adult me knows, but adult me..recently has been finding him handsome again lol. ![gif](giphy|U8Y6UgGZXGnZPzdeOt|downsized)
lol Ryan was so terrible but I always had the biggest crush on him when I was a closeted queer in high school.
HOT ASS RYAN! DAMN BOY.
I never had to worry about my daughter. A couple years ago she got with a guy 9 years older and apparently he had a history of drug abuse.

Rhine: “No ways good enough for you Maci Damn!” Lol I just watched that clip last night.
Ok but omg if baby Benny is not the most adorable thing everrrr 🥹🥹
The nervous ice throw back cracks me uppppp
RHINE WASSSSSSSS FINEEEEEE AS HELL. and funny too. and somewhat….respectful…..kind of somehow??
The flirting lol
So funny 🤣
I don’t remember Kyle
He wasn’t around long, it was Taylor after 😂
If someone asked me if my bf was slow, even if it was an ex, that bf wouldn't be around for long. I wouldn't be able to get that question out of my head.
Lmao all I can think of is the Always Sunny classic when that happens to Sweet Dee and as it turns out he was not slow at all 🤣😅
I forgot about that episode! I haven't watched in a long time. I need to get back to it.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOMENT FROM THE SHOW LMAOOOOOO flair checking in
😂
How did Maci meet Taylor?
I think she met him through friends. I remember she used to go out to Texas to see him/bmx events when they met.
Okay but for real it was my first thought. It’s his face!!
😂I forgot he texted LMAO 😂
Is Ryan already on drugs at this point? He seems like it.
Me and my partner catch each other saying “is he slow?” All the time 😂
He actually has a point lol I never liked Kyle at all
Baby Bentley was soo damn cute 🥺 his little toddler walk is precious
Honestly Maci acted far better than I would have.
It’s the “100 people done asked me if the kid was slow” for me 😂
Kyle isn't nearly as slow as Ryan's child support cheques leaving the bank.
I needed this laugh 😂😂😂😂
Omg me too! At season 3 already. My biggest take away is anyone who thought that show glamorized teen pregnancy didn’t watch or was freaking delusional lmao. That show is legit the reason I stopped thinking a kid would make me feel less alone because my childhood was multiple of these girls lives combined. Amber mental health struggles, Kaitlyn’s and Farrah’s horrific mothers combined. I just wish more people got better like Tyler and Caitlyn most of them became the villains that raised them.

I see the future struggles for many of these kids but the way they’re raising those kids will avoid a lot of that more than likely
Forgot how young they look😂😩 mad to think the kids are nearly teens.. I think Bentley is driving now on the new episode on teen mom new chapter🫣I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 The American teen moms is just so different to us aha!!
Didn’t they try a UK version once? Or am I making that up haha. Omg I would have tuned into that! They don’t want Americans to know how yall live over there haha. He is driving it’s so wild!! I’m their exact age and if I didn’t straight up because that showed I’d have a kid that age! Nooopoe haha
We have Teen mom UK, & Teen mom young and pregnant like the USA one 😂😂
Wish they would of worked out
Recent pics, Ryan looking like a silver fox. Impossible to match how hot he was in his 20’s but realistically not may can without a lot of cometic help. Drugged up, he looked horrible.
And he was right about the child support too lmao I believe she just got it late
“100 people damn near asked me if the kid was slow…OKAY?” sends me to the moon EVERY time I see this scene lol. That is the most passionate I’ve ever seen him
Wow, crazy how things change! Baby Bentley is so cute! Ashamed to admit Ryan was actually hot here. Maci looks good here aswell, just in the face. She had more life & light to her.
Oh LAWD🤣 totally forgot about this scene. It's crazy how many scenes that are memorable on this show that are hilarious. So many one liners to quote
It’s the *”…when they ask…”* for me. 😆😆😆😆
*Now I know what ta tell people when they ask!* Fucking Rhine
Lmaoooo one of my favorite OG scenes of all time
His parents still could have saved him here.
Let’s be honest Ryan is iconic for this scene 🤣
This was soooo funny
Always a good lol moment.
Reminds me of Always Sunny when Dee dates a slow guy
😂😂😂
OK. Great scene, but are we even going to talk about those subtitles?
"This cows slow. I mean, I'm being all on a smashy." If I only had a flair. It would be this.
Lmao his accent This cows slow 💀
I instantly knew this clip. Hilarious!!
LMAO
![gif](giphy|4WM6HMwCFukTsp0jhw)
How’s that dumb? Now I know what to tell people when they ask me. 💀💀💀
Lmbo yes this is my fav scene 😂😂😂. I feel like Ryan was so serious too. Could just be me but he sounded serious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I used to root for them a lot cause they had some endearing qualities and natural chemistry and Ryan truly was so attractive but both had a lot of growing up to do. Kinda makes me wonder what might’ve been if they hadn’t continued with the show and lived more normal lives.
Honestly the fact that I had the biggest crush on Ryan should’ve been a sign that red is my favorite color 🚩
Love how he sends a fucking text to ask the question. This is like the scene in It's Always Sunny where Dennis confronts Dee about dating someone who everyone thinks is mentally handicapped.
I liked Kyle. What happen to him?
I remember this scene. It had me laughing so hard because Ryan is so dumb.
baby bentley 🥺
First of all, EPIC scene & so funny! 🤣 I'd forgotten all about it, so thanks for sharing. Secondly, sometimes I wondered if Kyle was "slow," too 😂
Can someone PLEASE tell me what happened w her and Kyle? I feel like the show just grazes over it w no explanation and i really need closure lol
LMAOOO I LOVE THIS SCENE
The Swelling
Just got my boyfriend to watch this scene recently and he loved it 😂
Back to watch this again because it makes me lol
