I actually think Heidi us being unbelievably smart. She’s sussed out that the ixperts are gaslighting misogynists and has changed tact to reveal them and Mike for what they are. She has checked out but knew that if she was honest that she would be stamped on. This way she has left it to the viewer to see exactly what is going on. She is a smart cookie

@FleshLiabilities

Martha is just an interfering pufferfish-faced annoyance.
True dat
Jj2431 · 22/02/2021 23:05

Ugh

Martha not only pupeteers Jess but also Michael. WAKE UP MICHAEL.

Jules hit the nail on the head. There are girls and then there are women. Also glad Ning went for it as well.

Dan is seeing the light finally.

Heidi and Mike don't belong together. Mike is an emotional abuser. Everything is Heidi and nothing is him. He would love her but only if she conforms and agrees with everything he says. Run Heidi.

Misty9 · 22/02/2021 23:06

I work in a therapy profession and those 'experts' are an embarrassment - unless they dish out advice to balance the gaslighting they do and we just don't see those parts?! But I somehow doubt that's the case... Hmm

Adirondack · 22/02/2021 23:35

Both Martha and Jess do a similar thing with their eyes. It reminds me of the gaze a random neighbourhood cat fixes you with as it shits in your veg patch.

I don't know about that. That would make her a very good actor. I think Mike had convinced her there's something wrong with her. I think they both have issues that are clashing but the way he let her apologise for everything and not step in, didn't sit well.
MarkRuffaloCrumble · 23/02/2021 08:46

Hmm. Heidi and Mike. He’s just not seeing her is he? And she’s so desperate to be seen, to know that she’s in his thoughts. She is needy, but I don’t think entirely unreasonable. However much I dislike JessiKa, the way Mike speaks to/at her is really uncomfortable. He wants to hurt her - at least with his words. Condescending, with a heavy tinge of aggression. And he has to be right. All. The. Bloody. Time. hmm I reckon he fancies Jess. I reckon Heidi senses he fancies Jess. And I reckon he has no idea what to do about those conflicting feelings he has about her. It’s always been there, and I think Heidi has always sensed it which is why she feels so tense when Jess enters their world.

100% nailed it VillaMia - this is exactly how I see it.

Unfortunately DP is team Mike and I’m team Heidi, and at the moment I’m seeing a few too many parallels!

Why do I torture myself with this thread when I haven't caught up with the latest episode?!! Was too busy with the delightful Troy from season 5 last night. What a prize he is!

Silenceisgolden20 · 23/02/2021 09:12

Yes I believe Mike does fancy Jess. From the first dinner party with the comment about her.

One of those weird wants to shag her but knows she's wrong kind of misogyny thing going on men sometimes have.

Branleuse · 23/02/2021 09:31

i dont think mike is emotionally abusve. I think thats really harsh. I just think theyre not a great match, but both are really nice in their own right.

chocolatesaltyballs22 · 23/02/2021 09:35

I don't get it with Jess. I don't think she's attractive at all. And I don't just mean that she's not a nice person. Every time I look at her face I see her dad. And as for the trout pout....ugh!

SheldonesqueIsUnwell · 23/02/2021 10:08

Apart from the bit where he had a pop at Insta that I was all for, I think Mike has got Heidi’s head spinning so fast, she can dry her own hair with two comments.

He’s got her doubting everything she does. And everything she says. And worse, has got her apologising and accepting most of the blame.

I don’t know what happened to Heidi before but she seems to be fairly broken.

Mike doesn’t seem to be. He is hardened, arrogant and is mad as hell that he doesn’t get to have nice Heidi all the time/on command.

There is a controlled fume there. That massive great throbbing vein at the side of his head is on double time.

If anyone, (IF), he should have been matched with one of the ‘girls’ but to match that cold arrogance with someone like Heidi was cruel.

Like most of these matches really.

I can’t believe that she said she loved him because that seems based on the physical aspect of things. It isn’t because he makes her laugh like a clown, or makes her feel safe, respected or valued, that she matters - that her opinion matters. Because for the last few weeks, Heidi has been looking more and more pinched.

I really think Mike is abusive. The way he looks and rolls his eyes, dismisses what Heidi says, and resorts to verbal insults (with Jess) really reminds me of an emotionally and physically abusive ex. Don’t forget Mike is on his best behaviour being filmed. And being 44 and single (when he is attractive, solvent etc) is a red flag for me. He seems pretty narcissistic and from that first time on the beach when he wouldn’t listen to Heidi talking about her difficult past I have been watching for abusive behaviour. They are not a good match. I’m not saying Heidi doesn’t have her own issues btw.

Alexandernevermind · 23/02/2021 11:06

@Koalababy Jules is so stylish, she looks like a 50s film star.
I really like Mike, I really like Heidi too I just don't think they are right for each other. I loved it when Mike bit Insta's head off for being so rude when he and Heidi were doing the Q&A.

Silenceisgolden20 · 23/02/2021 11:18

I loved the way Jules spoke to Martha. And little Michael spoke up like a lap dog

CocoPark · 23/02/2021 11:22

I hate to say it but I don't mind Mike now, I just think he's totally unsuited to Heidi. He's arrogant and even shallow, but with a family as nice as his I doubt he's too sinister. I've said since early on that he secretly fancies Jess (I think Heidi senses that too).

Martha continues to be absolutely awful!!! Mike is humble, thoughtful and deep by comparison.

I find Cam a bit weird. When he told InstaJ and Lego head to kiss in front of the group - why? I've noticed he's always listening keenly and reacting very visibly to others' gossip or arguments. Even when he burst into tears out of nothing. I'm sure he's totally harmless but there's an immaturity there that I'd find off-putting in a bloke.

theliverpoolone · 23/02/2021 11:37

I kept imagining Cyrell being there last night - think blood would have been spilt!

I can't imagine it will happen, but it would be no more than she deserves if Dan ditched Jess at the vow renewal.

crazycatlady20 · 23/02/2021 11:54

I'm so sad that I've only just found this thread and it's coming to an end 😢

will there be a reunion show this week? I'm hoping it's revealed that Jess spoke to Nick before she then opted for Dan. would love to see Dan and Cyrells reactions.

JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows · 23/02/2021 13:10

Dan massively looked like he was regretting everything last night. I think he didn't think past the sex with Jess and now realises she's a Level 5 cling on. What a shame

The final dinner party is on Friday night, and then Monday is the reunion. I'll be watching both live with you lot despite having already given them an airing Grin
JaneJeffer · 23/02/2021 14:02

I wish they would do a double episode on Friday instead of dragging it over to Monday.

Me too! I suspect my DP has a Mike thing going on with her, as she looks a lot like his ex. Once I pointed out that she looks like her dad he was disgusted (with her or himself?!)
SweetPeaPods · 23/02/2021 14:07

What am I doing wrong with shvideo? I can't get the episode to play?
