MAFS Australia Thread 7: Let’s rehash - Doing the deed has planted the narcissistic seed. The jam has stopped jamming. The Bad Bitch energy isn’t bitching and Air BnB are still waiting for Nipple Boy to pay his invoice (NO SPOILERS!).

[browneyes77]

Into the final days and it’s still a shit show!

Ew
jacks free
Flowing locks and his like for a ‘ submissive type ‘

If it was a choice between those two, I’d take a vow of chastity

Yes. Get me to a nunnery if that's the choice.

I’d take a bullet if they were the only choices 🤣

Lauren's dress is possibly the most stunning wedding gown I've ever seen. Possibly because of her incredible figure, possibly because it looks like really good fabric

It's polyester 200 quid!! She makes it look like couture!

@FergoMcFergFace At least with Jack, what you see is what you get.

We see it but I don't think Tori sees what she is getting!

You could see the concern on Tori's mum's face when she told her mum that basically everyone else on the ixperiment disliked Jack but Tori liked him so she was disregarding everything the others were saying.

I bet that is a situation her mum has seen before.

Tori's idea of being strong is sticking to your point of view no matter what and she decided on the wedding day that he was gorgeous and they were the superior couple.

Apart from Lauren that was the most boring episode - have to watch these on catch-up just to escape all the re-capping!

This week is definitely record and then fast forward through 90% of it - and then straight on to SM to find out what’s going on with them all now

So dull. I actually don't care. Jonno is a complete arse. And actually probably worse than Jack because he tried to pretend otherwise. Lauren deserves better; I hope she does well from the show and finds someone amazing.

Yes I could tell Tori's mum was trying to negotiate it without pushing her further into defiance. Suppose she will just have to let it play out, Tori won't be advised.

I understand Jade has a child to consider but anything about what Ridge may need or what she offers him? I dunno about in Aus but you'd be lucky to find the right grade and specialism clinical job in another area, recruit, do all paperwork, find a place to live, serve notice etc and be in post within 3 months. Not saying not doable but it's all about his maturity when she doesn't seem to consider his real world at all.

Jonno was absolutely contemptible and Lauren handled that beautifully. What an invertebrate. Stardom for Lauren. Boring suburban future with boring suburban Ellie for Jonno

I've just remembered who Jono's voice reminded me of - Eeyore!! Can you imagine putting up with that voice in your life forever?

Except that Eeyore is not a lying gaslighter. 🌹

Isn't there the reunion next week before hitting SM?

what2dooooooo

"What does everyone think of Ridge?

He's incredibly childish!"

I don't think Ridge is childish, he displays regular 20 something silliness when with his mates. However, he holds down a responsible (difficult) job, he has gone into an experiment to find (effectively) a dating partner and has opened his heart and mind to becoming a step dad. I think he is fab.

Yes, he lives at home but so do a lot of young people, and so does Jade. i think they are the only really good match on the show and will work.

Yeah Ridge is de(eeeec)ent.
He was very compassionate when Jade was talking about her ex in the earlier episodes. There was a moment when he asked what side of the bed she wanted to sleep on, it was the kind of every day thoughtfulness we haven’t seen much of in the other couples. On the couch last week when he said he thought about her all the time he does sound genuine.

I’d normally wait for the reunion, but this series has been so drawn out, thank goodness for Lucinda, I need to put myself out of my misery 😆

I think Ridge does love Jade but he might turn out to be a bit of a player.

I don't blame you!
I was just checking for those of us saddos watching till the bitter end who might head to SM and inadvertently miss the delights of next week 😆 or others might post last minute spoilers.

Tori doesn't want to see it.

Yes this... I think he is ok - the mental health nurses I work with can be ridiculously silly but they work hard and are compassionate,

I think he will step up and be both a good partner and father to V.

Jonno saying he deserves to find love, when what he actually deserves is a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

I agree. They clearly really like each other on a human level. There are no games just genuine affection for each other. I think he's a lot more mature than most of the other guys in there. He realises what you need in a partnership.

I can see Jonno's point a bit, that Lauren was not supportive, and was judgmental of him. Although I did laugh as he said in final vows how Lauren had said he had a robotic voice, and he said it in a robotic voice.

It’s strange because I can see that Jonno was quite serious about Lauren but I think he is also quite sneaky, he has presented himself one way and when he said ‘I can’t wait to get off this show’ or words to that effect, which he also qualified as something like ‘the most true thing I’ve said on this programme.’

I cannot see what he saw in Ellie at all, I mean she is nice enough but she was not his match.

Lauren is gorgeous, insightful, wise and out spoken. A perfect match for a quieter person like Jonno.

and when he said ‘I can’t wait to get off this show’... I think that was the real Jonno coming through, sneaky, selfish, not really sure what he wants...
