@Sunbird24 good point!

PheasantsNest · 10/09/2021 11:04

Just catching up on last night. Morag is so horrible. Has she looked in a mirror lately. She thinks she's gorgeous. She is treating her husband so disgustingly.

Ughmaybenot · 10/09/2021 11:07

@Justmuddlingalong

Marylise's ex and the DF of her kids must be horrified at the thought of Franky being anywhere near his sons.
Can you imagine?!
Keke94LND · 10/09/2021 11:23

Just caught up,

I think Luke seems really nice, he reminds me a bit of my boyfriend tbh, and Morag telling him he's not man enough is really really not okay, but at least she knows that her view of manliness is toxic. I do like that morag is at least trying though, but I think Luke would have been a good match for Marylyse (how do you spell that? Sorry) also I think marylyse is stunning! And seems really lovely.

Meghan I think is the perfect example of a girl who only thinks about the wedding but not the marriage, she had a whole wedding book ffs, but has put no effort into the marriage and even cheated 🤦🏼‍♀️ I liked Jordan at first but not anymore, he seems very controlling, but at least he did say something especially as Megan did appear to have lied to both. I feel bad for Alexis and wish that her and Ant could have coupled up?

I didn't like josh at first, but I've warmed to him, don't think I'd want to date him but he seems alright, I also really liked how all the boys rallied around Bob when he was upset.

Can't remember their names but that loved up couple seem really lovely as individuals and together too

JaneJeffer · 10/09/2021 12:00

I kind of feel sorry for Morag. She knows he's a good man but she just doesn't fancy him. If you don't fancy someone you don't fancy them so she needs to end it now because it's not going to happen.

Shoxfordian · 10/09/2021 12:04

So much drama last night!

I feel sorry for Bob, he seems lovely
Frank is super controlling, which will just seem more and more apparent as the show continues

Can’t believe they’ve already lost 2 couples though

TitsInAbsentia · 10/09/2021 12:09

[quote Sunbird24]@FAQs initially it does, until you realise it reads as though he spent his entire 15 years either being trained or delivering training, and didn’t actually do any soldiering. Obviously I could be wrong, but he doesn’t really strike me as the type not to let everyone know that he fought ‘bad guys’, if he did. Most veterans would probably include something as vague as ‘saw action in X’, or ‘supported operations in Y’ in a résumé like that 🤷🏻‍♀️[/quote]
You've nailed it here. Those I know who have served will mention at some point the 'active' parts of their service. Yes he underwent gruelling training but given he joined around 1995 surely he would have been on some ops - Afghanistan/Gulf etc?

I suspect the people of Marilyse's 'little town' will be watching this and willing him to stay the f in Dubai, assuming they don't already know the outcome of the relationship. Anyway, she doesn't exactly need him, she seems perfectly well set up just without the bloke - this article is from just before the show so no spoiler material in there cosmopolite.media/fashion/inside-married-at-first-sight-star-marilyses-home-with-floating-staircase-home-gym-and-cute-bulldog

TitsInAbsentia · 10/09/2021 12:10

I've just watched the afters show, it's pretty naff, and they made me watch Jordon oiling himself up self-appreciatively in the mirror....for the love of my late breakfast why couldn't you have issued a warning!

Anonymonster · 10/09/2021 12:22

A fair few comments on Marilyse's Insta about Franky, people seeing the red flags etc.

TonyThreePies · 10/09/2021 12:36

I don't get what's happened to Marylise - at the wedding she seemed to have Franky's number, rolling her eyes with her friends at his speech yet now she seems completely smitten. And he's not showing her any niceness for her to have fallen for.

JaneJeffer · 10/09/2021 12:46

She's had the Stepford treatment.

Frazzled2207 · 10/09/2021 13:05

@JaneJeffer

I kind of feel sorry for Morag. She knows he's a good man but she just doesn't fancy him. If you don't fancy someone you don't fancy them so she needs to end it now because it's not going to happen.
I don’t feel sorry for her at all. She’s incredibly shallow in her comments about clothes. Yeah she should end it if it really is a non-starter. Luke is lovely! Bet the producers encouraged her to stay.
Lucythewonderdog · 10/09/2021 13:07

I went out with someone like Bob once in my 30s and childless.

He was initially attractive to me but as time went on, he annoyed the shit out of me with his “Bob” like ways but rather than be a cow and dump him for that I let him carry on with a “relationship” for about 4 months (v sparse sex due to “period” issues) as he liked to spoil me with flash restaurants and stuff.

I actually feel sick at the thought of it now. Not sure if it’s cos of the fact l played him or that he thought his stupid Bob like act was good enough for me?

JaneJeffer · 10/09/2021 13:27

@Frazzled2207 I think the clothes thing was just a softer stab at trying to say she doesn't fancy him. It's easier to say I don't like the way you dress than I don't like you. He needs to accept the facts too.

JacquelineCarlyle · 10/09/2021 13:29

I agree @JaneJeffer

Siouxtse1 · 10/09/2021 13:32

Did I imagine Luke saying that he works as a firefighter as well as a care home manager? I know we're not supposed to be reinforcing the stereotypes, but couldn't that be a way to get Morag interested?
Don't think she deserves it (she's been a cow to him), but it'd certainly be a treat for any Luke fans that do appreciate him AND he could 'chuck her about a bit' (maybe sling her over his shoulder), as that's what she said she liked? If she still doesn't fancy him after that, sure there'd be a queue waiting for him.

Justmuddlingalong · 10/09/2021 13:47

The Twittersphere appears to have the measure of Franky.

MAFSUK 3- Drama at first sight, love gets left behind
SheldonesqueTheBstard · 10/09/2021 13:52

Right.

I get that this is an intense experience. I get that you are laying yourself open in the hope for love.

But I’m sorry. I don’t buy all the angst from the contestants.

They’ve been together for about a week. They don’t have to share a bed if they don’t want. They don’t have to build a relationship if there is nothing to to build on or even an attraction.they don’t even have to pussy foot around eachother’s feelings.

They are not married. They are not lovers (shaggers but not lovers). They can’t even be friends. They are at best acquaintances because they don’t know eachother.

So many of them are damaged or are there for other purposes.

You want a free holiday and a gash 15minutes of fame? Fine. But don’t come onto a programme if you don’t want to accept that your list won’t be ticked. And don’t kid onto us that this isn’t realistically engineered scripted to go with the drama.

Megan has been painted as a right bastard on here and I feel it is unfair. She isn’t feeling it. To fanny around him with platitudes or to give him false hope is a lot crueller than giving him the truth.

And Bob isn’t listening to her. She has told him and told him. She isn’t a bully or cruel or nasty. He is wanting something that has never been there.

She hasn’t even cheated. They aren’t together. They haven’t ever been. So there is no cheating.

Do I question her choice of kissee? Oh yes. He’s a dark soul. The antithesis to bouncy Bob.

But for Bob to shake his hand? That turned me off right there. All the tears and happy clappy Bob - that was the inner arsehole right there.

If everyone is saying she doesn’t respect his feelings, he displayed far more disrespect with that handshake. And the ixpert validating it? Fuxake.

Like someone said upthread, I couldn’t respect him either.

I’m sorry he is insecure. But that is a massive reason he shouldn’t have been on here. The risk of rejection is so bloody huge, his hurt was inevitable. He has admitted that he hasn’t shown her his true self. He should have.

Just because he cries and is upset and has got the crowd, it doesn’t mean that Megan is necessarily the bad bastard.

It was just a kiss. To be sobbing like that over a kiss AFTER A WEEK would have me running like Paula fucking Radcliffe.

To an extent, Morag is the same. With her honesty. Although she has just got the ick. No annoying behaviour from Luke. Just the lack of attraction.

She is an irritant but she has said how she has felt. That could change as he is a lovely chap and she could grow to want his soul. I still think though that she is there for other reasons.

The thing that confuses me is that her body language and the way she touches him. I think it is possible her heart is open to it but the head hasn’t caught up yet.

Nikita? The lass doesn’t come across well at all but I feel sorry for her. The girl has put herself out on a limb with her behaviour granted but she doesn’t deserve the rest oft gem sawing her off at the trunk.

That girl is unhappy. Deeply do I reckon. Happy people don’t act like that. It was right for her to go. I’m glad she went.

The distaste from the others would have broken her further and just would have pulled out worse behaviour - like lashing out type behaviour.

I hope she gets some counselling and help. There is a good heart thumping in there I think.

The big concern for me is the Adam Tayah thing. It is way too quick. And ixpert saying we all love love. This isn’t love. Not after a week.

Superb chemistry. Big attraction. Similar people. Absolutely. But it is at best lust and a budding friendship.
They worry me. That level of intensity so early is unnatural.

Marilyse and Fwanky? Not buying it. She might have put her hand out for him to clamp on to. Her legs are turned away from him.

I’m wondering if he is really Nick Knowles and has been at the bleach.

It all feels a bit jackanory.

And the ixpert showing concern about the distance? You should know. You matched them. It has been a week. Why get so worried about the relocation possibilities?

I’m damned sure I wouldn’t give up everything for someone after a week.
Why are the ixperts getting so worked up about that?

And Josh is just a cunt. And a nasty one at that.

He is not a victim. You put him in a room with Godzilla, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Mr Krueger and a great white shark and that fucker would be out of that room looking victorious in 3 minutes.

He was scared she was going to hit him? What a lying bastard.

And to say what happened with Megan just for the poke?

You want a villain? There he is.

Not Megan. Not Morag. Not Nikita.

That is your Villain with a capital bastard V.

And I don’t respect any forum where they are putting humans against eachother in a gladiatorial fashion.

Justmuddlingalong · 10/09/2021 14:05

The whole premis of the show is to spark side taking, debate and discussion.
I think MN is the perfect place to discuss relationships and behaviour.

Winemewhynot · 10/09/2021 14:13

Aw Bob poor ugly crying, he felt that deeply, so glad all the boys went after him as a team. Good on Alexis calling Meghan out on her lack of girl code. I don’t think the gym and image obsessed Jordan had any real interest in her anyway, just someone to stroke his ego.

I said about Franky giving me creepy vibes yesterday, he just came across as controlling and menacing last night. Marylise was sat with a smile plastered on her face, looking to him before she answered any question, so strange! Why the hell he got on the showing whilst living in Dubai I’ll never know!

I think they’re going to have to introduce some new couple soon as I can’t see many of these lasting!

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 10/09/2021 14:13

I’m sure I wouldn’t have spent 5 minutes typing that out if that wasnt the case muddling.

JaneJeffer · 10/09/2021 14:15

I think you mean Jordon not Josh Sheldonesque??

Justmuddlingalong · 10/09/2021 14:17

I'm sure you wouldn't, but your post appears to be gavel banging. Other posters can have differing opinions.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 10/09/2021 14:17

That’s the one jane

Thank you for that. Wink. The man is disturbing. A hundred times more so than the meltedMattel version of Daniel Craig.

Thank you for spotting that. Typing in a rush and clearly not checking it 👍🏼

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 10/09/2021 14:18

No more so than others previously.

But fine muddling

I’ll bow out.
