MAFSUK 3- Drama at first sight, love gets left behind

[dillite]

Well, I started one because lack of space was driving me mad

Don't bow out. It's a discussion, everyone's opinion is valid. And nobody's is more valid.

Don't you dare go anywhere Sheldon I will cling to you like Wanky Franky.

Nothing wrong with a spot of gavel-banging between consenting adults

I’ve never said that anyone else’s opinion was not valid.

You have just tried to tell me that I was gavel banging and insinuating I didn’t understand the premise of the show and that I didn’t invite discussion.

I typed out in a hurry (check the glaring errors!) so I’m sorry my post didn’t suit.

If you didn’t like my post fine. It is fine to discuss why you didn’t like it. That is what usually happens on MAFS threads.

Not a shout of gavel banging and insinuating that I don’t find others points valid. I do. Which is why I started the thread and participated in others for so long.

Wish I hadn't allowed DH to watch this with me last night.

FOUR times already has he done the Wanky "guy with big balls" quote to me today

If I wasn't keen on Frank the Wank before, I hate him now.

Also, suspect I will find myself shouting to RESPECT THE FORUM at least once this weekend

Some of us swoon before your mighty gavel, Sheldon.

Didn't wake up this morning expecting to type that sentence.

Just watched the after show thing and the preview looks good for next week! Looks like it’s Marylise, Josh, Morag, Adam and Dan with the control.

No sign of Jordan, Alexis, Bob or Meghan.

I missed the after show and Tom was on it

Fair enough Sheldon. I just found the post about you not respecting the gladiatorial behaviour confusing. That's why I made the comment about it being the whole idea of the programme. Sorry. 💐

It's such crap tele, but I can't wait for the next one. I love it. 🤣

I watched this last night as i tried to switch off from work and thought it would be good for that (it was!)

I have to agree @SheldonesqueTheBstard. If you don't fancy someone, it's very hard to force yourself to do so. All this righteous 'well he's not your normal type so we tried someone different' is all very well but if you feel nothing for someone physically, imo, it's unlikely to suddenly appear in the space of a few weeks. And better to be honest about that. I also agree the dig at the one bloke's clothes (I forget all their names) was really a 'I didn't fancy him from the out' and (she thought) a kinder way of doing so. Same with old aggressive Jordan (for whatever reason he's in there). He didn't fancy her and therefore it was never going to work. I would find it incredibly hard to endure a week in one person's company who I was meant to be married to but I had the ick already for them.

You can have growing affection for someone but it's unlikely to happen in such a short time period. And generally everyone has a physical type (as my kids would say to me, yeah mum you like the bald, fat ones ).

We all know how quickly these threads fill up - to save any anxiety there is one prepared.

- for when this thread is full

Just not yet. This isn’t thread swap

I disagree re the clothes issue being just an excuse and an easy way to let him down gently. I have certain fashion styles that I really feel nauseous about, and I could easily fancy/go off someone based on this

@SheldonesqueTheBstard I agree with some things you've said, but surely the purpose of the show is that you have to behave as if you're married. We all know that they don't have to stay and that they're not really cheating, but the purpose is to act as if you are, which is why I personally think it's horrible when they kiss others or decide to swap partners- as it makes the entire premise pointless.
Similarly with Morag attempting to make it work. Whether she has to or not, she's choosing to work through it rather than walk away, as if they're actually in a committed relationship

Neighbours character who looks like Megan. Couldn't get a better pause photo 😕

Why are all the men (other than Josh) either namby pamby, wet lettuce types or controlling and nasty?

Jordan HATES women. He gets so angry when a woman is "disrespecting" a man. I really think he's quite terrifying. Franky is another one who was very controlling from day one and the response from Marylise was like she'd been drugged to stay quiet. "We get on well"

The voice of Morag is horrific.

Adam looks about 21 and Tayah looks about 45. Has she had botox or something already, I can't believe she's in her 20s. Adam is Tim nice but dim, I think she'll get bored of him quite quickly.

All that being said this is one of the most entertaining shows I've watched for a while... bring on tonights episode!!

Is it on tonight? It wasn't on last Friday.

Aww do i have to wait until Monday?!

Yep, it's not back until Monday 😤

I think Megan has been a pretty horrible bastard. Not feeling it is fine but her manner is very curt and her eye rolling and general disapproval. Putting the kiss aside, I don't think she's come off well on this at all. I liked her at the start but she's done herself absolutely no favours with her shitty attitude

I think there was something very incestuous with Megan's twin brother, the way he was gazing at her in in the taxi was just weird and creepy.

Also..did Bob set anybody else's gaydar off?

Agreed.

Wonder if this is before or after after Morag's makeover on him cos he doesn't look comfortable dressed like this.

Making a start on the Australian one to get my fix

Can’t believe we have to wait til Monday… don’t they know we have no life?! 😂
