MAFS OZ 5 - All aboard the Le Creuset Express for the final showdown

[Floofydawg]

Here ya go, I even spelt Le Creuset right

Yes! She should be one of the experts! I loved how she nailed him to the mast! 🌹

More than once! Talk about not engaging brain before opening mouth! Especially in front of Evelyn's mother. 🌹

Iirc in the UK one they let them rent somewhere if they don't want their actual home on TV (for security or family reasons).
Are the home stays not going to the other half of the couple this time?

She doesn't spend much time on self-reflection does she? If anything she ruined the kayaking session as well as the picnic. 🌹

Ong yes I love her!!

OMG Rupert is a bloody idiot. He will never in his whole life meet someone as lively, intelligent and nice as Evelyn. And he's still being lukewarm about moving? I've lost all respect I had for him...

Yy I don't understand what happened with Rupert. He'd just made it out of the friends' zone and instead of being in the 'new relationship' glow, he couldn't even commit to wanting to continue after the experiment.
It reminded me a bit of Dan eg we'll take the relationship to the next level then I'll become ambivalent about it.

I watched Kirra again this morning - what an absolute legend

I don't think we've seen any signs that they are really close at all. They get on and I think respect each other, but not intimate / romantic. Nor do they appear equal (for want of a better word). Feeling like you're in a relationship where you know everyone thinks you're punching must be really difficult unless you are overwhelmingly reassured by the feelings and love of the other person. I've not seen signs of that from Evelyn. In fact I was very surprised by them having sex.
I think Rupert would have been much better matched with someone like Lyndall

Seems to me like Cam has got the ick. For some people affection doesn’t come naturally and I get that, but for him to flat out refuse to kiss or hug when asked, that’s not normal. My DH isn’t overly affectionate naturally but if I go to him for a cuddle/kiss of course he reciprocates!

I think Alyssa is in self sabotage mode, I think it’s an insecurity thing. It’s like she continually pushes people away whilst saying they don’t like her enough and then when they eventually give up and walk she says “see, told you you didn’t care enough” 🤦🏼‍♀️ I bet she’s like that in every relationship.

He's literally just made it out of friends zone.

He's now expected to suddenly make plans to move simply because she's now slept with him?

I didn't say anything about expecting him to move. I said he seemed ambivalent about continuing the relationship after the experiment.

Yep sorry, meant to quote the one next to you 🤦‍♀️

😄 it's ok. fwiw I think moving is a massive commitment. It amazes me that any of them would feel ready to do it. (except Ollie and Tahnee who are obviously written in the stars!).

Her facial expressions!

Yup, I think the married man probably suited her in some ways - she knew she was second-best.

Please fill up this thread tonight before continuing on the new one!

I love Kirra!!

If I had met my mother, when she was alive, for lunch with my boobs hanging out like Evelyn, she'd have had strong words with me about staying classy (and she wasn't the type to criticise). Not classy, Evelyn. Not at all.

Rupert's being an idiot!!

(Watching on All4)

@browneyes77

But it is all ok really with Alyssa because

1. She is emotional

2. (You didn't see this coming!!) She has a child!!!

Let’s gooooo!!

Dinner Party….!!!

These guys will be the success stories of the year

Rupert. Not a great look.

I meant Ollie and TAHNEE

He really doesn't help himself, Evelyn us more patient than I would be.
