Hello All.

I hope it's bonza that I took the liberty of starting a second thread - just didn't want us gong walkabout in the bush (pardon my Fronch Grin) if we ran out of the other (whoops did it again!)

@RinderTinderNotRinderGrinder

I can’t believe I’m going to do this, but I’m going to defend Anthony! My dh processes stuff faster if he reads it rather than hears it. It could be that Anthony is just being controlling again, or it could be that he takes in information faster when he can read it.

I feel dirty.

Me too. I listen to what is being said but it takes a while to register what I heard.
BedknobsNoBroomsticks · 29/07/2020 12:42

We have another week to go. They are really dragging this out. One of the episodes is a catch up meal a few weeks after the commitment ceremony. That might be quite interesting.

LunchBoxPolice · 29/07/2020 12:45

Nadia was being a bit stroppy..but then so would I be if I had Anthony constantly telling me how I feel/what to eat/that I need to eat carbs because I’m flat etc. He’s so patronising.

YourVagesty · 29/07/2020 13:06

I felt that I could totally read Nadia's mood last night because I've been there many, many times.

Her face looked like mine when I'm hormonal and I either want to burst into tears or have somebody say the 'wrong thing' so that I can explode with rage at them.

Lardlizard · 29/07/2020 13:35

Jesse is always at the end of the table! Not fair !

And I agree about shaz not being able to let misch
Enjoy a bloody moment
Maybe shaz doenst even like nice much at all
She’s just trying to get one on in misch?

How many more episodes do we have to come ?

Italiangreyhound · 29/07/2020 13:37

I don't particularly like Anthony but Nadia is a very bad match for him and vice versa.

Lardlizard · 29/07/2020 13:54

Anthony was gutted that susan and Sean might last long term

"Every girl in this room wants to hear those three words."

That statement really annoys me. It's the implication that women are desperate for a man and that the men hold all the cards.

Yes and it's like THATS IT. That's the end goal. Not joining lives, careers, kids etc just 3 words.

It is a bit sexist, but I have to admit that I am one of those girls. There have been so many men over the years that I’ve longed to hear those three little words from. I don’t see what the big deal is really, you just open your mouth, crank up the vocal chords and whether it’s a whisper or a shout I think it can mean so much when a man says, “I was wrong.”
Honeyroar · 29/07/2020 14:28

Anthony sees it as a competition- almost in a last couple standing way. He can’t bear the thought that someone might last longer as himself and Nadia (and hasn’t even registered that Nadia might even say no to him yet!).

They load them with alcohol on those dinner party nights. Half of them were slurring their words before the meal was served (deliberately late!)

Sertchgi123 · 29/07/2020 15:13

I really don't know why Nadia wants spoony to commit to her. He's such a bad catch, she can do so much better.

I'm loving it that Susan is prepared to give living on the farm a chance. It would be my dream to live somewhere like that, with horses.

Absloutely! Tosser!

HAHAHAHAHA! Touche, Rinder!

This was one thing that annoyed me about Love Is Blind, that it was up to the men to decide who to propose to and the women just had to wait for the proposal. Similar to as the "women all want to hear "I Love You"" thing.
BiggerBoat1 · 29/07/2020 17:15

I can just imagine the production team pouring Jesse a glass of wine and saying "Tell us that brilliant thing about the door again mate" and then pissing themselves. Bless him. He needs to slam that door shut and run from those self-absorbed twins.

@BedknobsNoBroomsticks

Another week?!? I thought this was the last week. I need this to end so I can refocus on 90 day fiancé GrinGrin I’ve not been giving it my full attention since watching MAFS

Pamalarrrr · 29/07/2020 18:21

Ah yes, we all want to hear those 3 little words - "you are dumped" to AnTHony

EllJ · 29/07/2020 19:53

Nadia's facial expressions were brilliant last night. It's like a mixture between "I've got popcorn stuck in my teeth" and "is that a fart I smell?"

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 20:24

Watching on slight delay so I can FF the endless adverts... loving the amount of Simon and Alene so far!

Vanessa says she doesn’t want to end up ‘wearing the pants’ in her marriage but she will, it’s just her nature. She wouldn’t be happy with an extrovert decision maker in reality, but until she realises this she’ll forever be chasing the wrong men.

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 20:28

I love Simon and his lovely friend and her lovely family

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 20:28

I’m aware I’m talking to myself here 🤣

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 20:34

Ugh, Tommo and his stupid bum chin

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 20:42

Concentrating solely on two couples so far in this episode is so much better than the usual flitting between all the couples nonsense! I really feel like I’m getting to know the participants, a mere 20+ episodes in 🤦🏻‍♀️

The whole show should’ve been done more like this, and loads fewer bullshit filler recaps.

WorryWartOne · 29/07/2020 21:00

Right officially blubbing my head off for Simon and Alene! And officially don’t care about any of the other couples, so I’m off to dig out some spoilers... don’t worry I won’t reveal any on here 🤫

Destinysdaughter · 29/07/2020 21:02

You know if you watch it on catch up.on the All4 app, it's only an hour without all the bloody adverts!

Thought tonight's ceremony was very touching actually.
