Meeting Javi
Kailyn continued her education by attending college, which is when she met Javi Marroquin. They met while Kailyn was working at a clothing store.
She convinced “a young man who looked 15 to buy a really expensive shirt,” but he brought it back the next day as an excuse to ask her out. They started out as friends, but when Javi drove all the way to New York to see Kailyn film the season three reunion show of Teen Mom 2, she “couldn’t deny his attraction to her” any more.
She point blank told Javi she didn’t intend to be with him and after an appropriate amount of time to emotionally recuperate, the two became friends. Jokes on Javi though because when they became friends, Kailyn told him she wanted to be with him.
Lesbian Relationships
Kailyn’s anger problems proved to be a big problem in Kailyn and Javi’s relationship, but they managed to work through them. One of the biggest things to get over in their relationship was Kailyn’s old friend, Aria. In her book Pride Over Pity, Kailyn remembers that in middle school, she and Aria “kissed and touched each other. At such a young age, I didn’t stop to analyze what this meant about my sexuality, even though I knew we had a unique friendship […] looking back, I realize that I thought of her as my girlfriend even if we never officially acknowledged it. Years later, she came out as a lesbian.”
While Kailyn was still living with Jo, they hooked up one more time. “There was a deleted scene from Teen Mom 2 where we discussed the nature of our friendship and if it would ever go further…Aria was convinced I was gay like her.” When Kailyn didn’t listen, Aria told Javi that Kailyn would eventually leave him to be with her, which caused Javi to leave.
Javi and Jo
Since Pride Over Pity was published in 2014, it doesn’t cover Javi and Kailyn’s drawn out break up and divorce. At the end of the book, however, it seemed like the two were extremely happy with each other.
One day, Jo approached Kailyn to ask for her back and “went on to say he couldn’t sleep straight for a year. I almost gasped at the serious tone his voice had taken on. As he spoke, I couldn’t help but notice he didn’t mention his girlfriend once. He didn’t even acknowledge the fact that he wasn’t single. Why? I think she had no idea what his true feelings were because he kept them buried deep. He never admitted any of this on television.” Kailyn turned him down, but this explains the weird relationship Javi and Jo have with each other.
