MAFSUK - thread 9 This matchmaking lark is quite tricky. When some are decidedly picky. They’ll meet for a blether, and then get together, but only because they’re so sticky.

The show might have lost its appeal
For some that won’t be a big deal
It may just be snark
But they have jumped the shark
With the return of one I and P Beale.

And nip flashing peg? Brace yersel.

And honestly @Twonewcats ?

I think Thomas and Matt are the only ones I’d have liked to have been matched with.

Although, lovely as you say he is, Thomas would have to neck a lot of pies as I appear to be twice his size 😭. He wouldn’t be able to fling me over a shoulder. I reckon Matt might struggle too 😳

And they’d both have to wear a blindfold because I’m encroaching munter territory.

I’ve just caught up with last nights episode. I’m pleased that the scales are starting to fall from Paul’s eyes. Tasha is awful.

Sorry what? Jay was scissoring Roz? Wha....?

I read it from a pp on this thread or the previous. Porschia apparently said it on her instagram. I had a little Google and saw this:

"Porscha then claimed the other members of the group were “trying to do her dirty”, before calling out Luke’s wife Jay for an action she did with Rozz. Luke joked: “And that’s why they call themselves the scissor sisters to be fair, good on ‘em.”

I was about two weeks behind on MAFS but liked the insights of the thread so it took me 3 days to read the thread up to date.

🎖️no mean feat

I think Sean's been pushed to the edge. Marks constant need for reassurance he won't be hurt left no room for Sean to have any emotion he was just there to be Marks emotional support. The stick or twist brought up the harsh reality that he had no choices and was trapped. Its a shame if Mark wasn't such a tit and considered Sean's needs for a nanosecond they could possibly have let something grow.

There's no evidence of this at all. Mark admitted to being happy to have everyone else tend to his needs and Sean said he loved looking after people and was happy to do it.

I'm sure Thomas' friends do find him lovely but I think the way he cosies up to Luke shows a lack of judgement. Also I'm not sure Sheldon's FudAwards of 23 are to be taken as a definitive statement on everyone's character and my amendment was made in that spirit. Grin

I didn't suggest it was a definitive statement :D
Was just querying how he can be lovely then suddenly sly based on 2 brief comments (which were way less than some others were saying).

@SheldonesqueTheBstard - that's interesting re the F and C words - I find fud way less "offensive" than the C word!

Oh, as part of the spin the bottle thing! I see!

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 01/11/2023 15:29

I always imagine the c word to be said in a cockney geezer kind of way @Twonewcats

I know how the f word is said up here and it makes me wince!

It can be said with affection (like my old colleagues used to manage with the c word!) I suppose but it has always been a word that has nipped me.

I was called the c word by my uncle when I was little quite a lot and not affectionately at all (often paired with a derogatory poke at my skin colouring) so I’ve always associated that word with a wee strong stand of fuck you defiance.

I don’t use it in company or anything but it would probably make me bristle rather than cringe.

Words are funny things.

Why does no-one here like Erica? I haven't seen her do anything shady but there doesn't seem to be a lot of love for her.

43ontherocksporfavor · 01/11/2023 16:28

@SheldonesqueTheBstard fud reminds me of the Irish feck which is fcuk lite. 😂

43ontherocksporfavor · 01/11/2023 16:32

@WhisperGold I quite like Erica but I can see how she could annoy some as she does let her facial expressions say a bit too much.

Rummikub · 01/11/2023 16:37

I think these partner swaps should’ve been the actual
matches. Especially Georges and Adrienne!

And where’s all this fun Peggy and Georges have allegedly been having!

MelsMoneyTree · 01/11/2023 16:43

It's funny I think of fud as more acceptable than the c-word too.
@Twonewcats I've never warmed to Thomas so it wasn't a leap for me. But I am in the minority! I've found a distinct lack of men I would like on this year's show. Give me Layton or Dunc from MAFS Oz any day!

Her face gives away exactly how she feels, and I empathise with that 😀

Your uncle sounds a right charmer 😪😡

I like Erica too. She seems lovely. And I also empathise with the inability to hide whatever I'm thinking!

43ontherocksporfavor · 01/11/2023 17:14

Me too @beastlyslumber !!

Aye - that he was 🤨. My beautiful and absolutely wonderful aunt got rid (without him being a misery to her) when he ran away with someone who was far too young and naive to see him for what he was.

I’m intrigued to see what the kick off trigger is for the dinner party tonight.

Jordan definitely looked like he went on the flounce. And Erica went a bit sweary from the preview.
