I love MAFS Australia, and it's started again this week in Oz. Does anyone fancy a watch along? I watch on SouthHemiTV.

Already desperate to discuss the first two couples.

Jayden was an uncomfortable watch today.

Eden needed someone to sit quietly with her, reassure her and help her to breathe. Or distract her. Or leave her alone...

Anything, really other than demanding the conversation that HE wanted to have. Right then. In the middle of her panic attack.

Yes, it is hard supporting someone with anxiety, but that was a masterclass in making it all about you and making it 100x worse.

Jack is so disgusting as well. He can't hide how he feels and he does that hating expression with his chipmunk head.

Agreed. That nasty red smirky little face. Grrrr!

Re the cheating scandal mentioned at the end of episode 32, I think I know the two involved but don't want to spoil it...

I always stop it before the 'next time' nuisance. Already annoyed at all the replays as if nobody has a memory longer than a few hours. Waste of my life

SwimmingIntoSpring · 20/03/2024 16:06

Yes I’d agree Tori is very insecure and how she can’t see through Jack is unbelievable or maybe she’s the master puppetry in this and just wants/needs Tv exposure to validate her 🤷🏻‍♀️ but geez he’s really not worth it SO not a catch.

Yah that Lucinda finally had enough of winey Tim. He’s very self centred.

yeah Eden needs a very different kind of person and Jayden isn’t it. I hope they move on in their separate ways. He’s far too Mr Confrontation/ Black/White guy thinking.

As much as I am a normal human being, so couldn't stand Lizzzzzzz the weirdly possessive client, I did agree that Tori claiming to have mainly male friends was a bit of a concern - not because she's sleeping with them all - but because I am suspicious of women who claim to be 'not like the other girls' and to seek the approval of men to that extent.

She thinks she's a badass, but she's deeply insecure and wants the validation of men. Even snakes like Jack. She thinks she's better than other women. She has said so herself.

She is NOT better than Cassandra by any metric, for instance.

She seems unable to take the advice of women because she doesn't value their opinions.

All of my friends are male, not because i "seek their approval" but because my hobbies and interests are more traditionally male dominated, and those are the people i mix with socially. Its not about approval, i just have very little in common with most women, and therefore little to contribute to conversations. In my social time i want to spend it with people similar to myself.

The friend was a dick. It was ok for Jack to have a majority female friendship base, but not for Tori to have a majority male friendship base? Her take fully just implied she wanted Jack in her pants, which, is disgusting in itself, but to go on to berate a woman for enjoying platonic relationships with men is even worse.

IMO.

Tori is so insecure. For all her 'my mum taught me how to be a strong woman' - well she might have taught her that but she hasn't taught her how to be secure in relationships. She seems blindsided that her job is great, she's right in her relationship with Jack and everyone else is wrong.

Eden hopefully will see through Jayden.

Tim - ugh - he is so self centred and I actually think he's quite dangerous the way he thinks and acts.

Merryoldgoat · 20/03/2024 19:44

This year’s couples really are a bag of madness.

None of them are worth rooting for.

StartupRepair · 20/03/2024 20:59

Jack is disgusting and Tori is all internalized misogyny. The Gold Coast is a bit of a haven for the shallow and self obsessed, it is true. Hence so much representation in MAFs.

ILoveHugeAckman · 20/03/2024 21:07

I have anxiety - however I really feel for Jayden.

In this situation, he couldnt win. I hope they have had help as a couple for her anxiety because it looks utterly exhausting for both of them.

I agree. I couldn’t deal with that, she makes me feel anxious just watching her. Why has this suddenly manifested? She wasn’t like this before the retreat.

Manyandyoucanwalkover · 21/03/2024 04:44

I don’t understand why you would go on MAFS if you suffer with anxiety. Having said that, I haven’t liked Jayden at all. He’s dead behind his eyes.

Jack is the gift that keeps on giving. He really doesn’t have any redeeming features. I want to smash in, his smug chipmunk face. Tori sells herself as an intelligent, independent woman. She’s utterly deluded. I haven’t forgiven her for placing herself above Cassandra in the food chain.

This! I cannot stand to look at his face. Tori disgusted me saying that about the lovely
Cassandra. How dare she. Nothing superior about her at all.

haveyougotamin · 21/03/2024 22:43

@Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain which Tim?

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 22/03/2024 09:15

haveyougotamin · 21/03/2024 22:43

@Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain which Tim?

The older Tim. Although the younger Tim is sending some strange messages as of late too. I didn't like it at the dinner party where he let everything build up and then let rip at Sara (she deserved it though). I thought from that that he could hold grudges.

chaosmaker · 22/03/2024 13:34

I still like headshot older Tim and can understand how he lost his rag with Lucinda trying to dig in when he needed a break from her. He did try to tell her that but she kept on. I'm glad they made up at the dinner party. Much as I like Lucinda she would do my head in as a partner and I'd end up telling her to shut up if she wasn't listening when I needed space.

canina · 22/03/2024 14:19

Opposite of this

moderationincludingmoderation · 22/03/2024 18:52

I just can't deal with Tori and her sassy hand movements.

She's like a 14 year old who saw a grown up
doing it and she thought it looked cool and adopted it.

I keep wanting to like her and feel sorry for her but she is just so frustrating.
I cannot believe how she falls for Jack's every move.

TitsInAbsentia · 23/03/2024 16:13

Yes those bloody waving sassy "look at my new nails" hands! What is with them!

I just can't get over what a bunch of fuck-knuckles the guys are this year. Messed up or toxic. What a grand choice for the ladies - would you like a few weeks with a gaslighting knobhead or would you like to be the counsellor and lead your broken man to his salvation? I'm afraid we have no normal this year, we weeded them all out....

chaosmaker · 20/03/2024 09:38

Love that the gym he works at won't take that photo down :D

I love that even if his clients fawn all over him his colleagues have the proper measure of him!

TitsInAbsentia · 24/03/2024 14:20

Finally latest episode has loaded up so giving myself a break from housework 😎

From the off it's clear Tori is delighted to have some scandal to share, anything to turn the spotlight off her and temu teeth (no coincidence that Lauren and Jonno were last on the couch). Like hell have waggly hands and temu teeth actually done the deed, they made that up after his 'client' brought it up..

Lucinda def needs a medal. I found her annoying at first and over bearing but you can see really deep down she's a good egg.

brittanyfairies · 24/03/2024 15:15

Oh yes, Tori was euphoric about that information, she gave that information out of spite whereas Lauren has always spoken to Tori with her best interests at heart and has even taken her to one side to tell her the things Jack has said and done. Tori is not a nice person, she and Jack deserve each other. The photos of them at the beach in today's paper are so posed but actually really yuk.

I feel for Eden, I can't see her relationship with Jayden lasting, she's afraid to argue with him because it's all about him and how he feels. Anxiety is a bitch and she's just shut down. I wish her well.

You could see how arsey Jayden was getting on the sofa, his bottom lip hanging down... Envy (deffo not envy!)

TitsInAbsentia · 24/03/2024 19:38

I have no effing idea why I googled the beach photos....WHY!! What is wrong with me 😂 I am fully expecting to hear from so dramatic that the usual scuzzy DM photographer was in tow and it was all a set up.

chaosmaker · 25/03/2024 20:45

I don't really get the Lauren stuff although her bloke didn't back her up early on when they were talking about Jack early on so thought he was a bit suss back then. There does need to be trust in a relationship and she did check his phone and see they were just texting. Tori so gleeful but liked that in the pre dinner chat, Lauren was talking more to Eden on the sofa rather than her.
