MAFs U.K. 3 - The First Dinner Party. Expecting thanking, rankings and tankings

[AndThereSheGoes]

New thread. Sorry couldn't see one.

.

As a larger (aka curvey) woman I find it really annoying the way larger women are matched with men who will not find them attractive. There is only one women on the programme I would describe as a petite brunette, and she is a lesbian, so not a match for Adam.

The choice to pair people up in this way leads to awkward 'confrontations' between the couples and then the 'experts' keep probing to find out why they are not clicking!

So, the guy has to say 'not my type' but if they say why then it's a big drama. I think it's quite offensive for women to have to appear to 'talk the guy into fancying them.' and it usually is that way round!

I've misjudged Alex and Holly, I thought their attraction to each other would over come the crazy. But it won't!

However Caspar wants to tell Emma he is not attracted to her, and the rights and wrongs of his opinions, he is now being actively unpleasant to her from what we can see.

This season is so weird. The woman are all childish and weird and the men are all unattractive and weird! The experts really fucked this one up!

Doubleraspberry how is Casper being actively unpleasant? I think he is upset and lashing out but Emma is being critical of him and pressuring.

It's easy to see why K and K work well, they have lots in common. Nathan and Lacy seem to be ok, I don't think they will last but they seem fun together. I think Ross and Stacy is the surprise match that works but maybe it is just the good connection between interests/looks etc.

am really not sure why Richelle is on the show. Not sure Orson is my cup of tea but he didn't,5 deserve to have to go to the first dinner party alone! IMHO!

How is Caspar being unpleasant to Emma? The way he looks at her, talks to her, and talks about her. She’s not reacting well, which isn’t helping the situation, but he has been like this since the start. He’s taken his disappointment out on her.

@Italiangreyhound I hear what you're saying, but I doubt that ANY woman said she wanted to be matched with a man who has a head like an acorn, Turkey teeth and an overinflated sense of self-worth; so who do they match that guy with?

Adam has said that he thinks the experts have got it spot-on with the personality type of his wife and if he wasn't so superficial he may have realised how bloody lucky he is to be matched with her.

That's not to say I think the experts get it right, but that I think he would have been hard to pair with anyone as he's looking for "perfection" (despite being far from perfect himself).

Accepting Adam to be one of the grooms on the show was unfair on any woman matched with him. Not knocking his looks - for once - but what passes for his personality.

I think it needs to be taken in context. He doesn't hate Emma. As his mum and sister noted " she's one of us". They ( including Emma) all know she's fine and accepted. Caspar and her along at a Young Farmers level. The anger from Caspar is crushing disappointment he's got the exact opposite of what he wanted to fall in love with.

This seems to be the issue with Polly and Shitlid too. Clearly she's fit enough for a shag and they both say they get along well day to day. That's why Polly isn't giving up. She's not uncomfortable being fat and she knows Shitlid is full of shit.

Also this thread is already nearly full. I'm not doing it again....😁

I don’t like Caspar or Adam personally but I don’t think there wrong at the end of the day if you don’t fancy her you don’t fancy her. Adam was a dickhead for sleeping with Polly tho. But Pollys energy is just so weird, he’s told her so many times that he doesn’t fancy her, she’s always drapping herself all over him or touching him, it’s really odd and quite sad to watch.

Who do they match Adam with? No one, they must have thousands of applicants.

Casper has not been very nice, I admit, doubleraspberry but I think Emma is, also, but she hides it better. As she says, being glass half full and sugar coating it.

I don't especially like Eve but I do think Charlie is just way too full on.

I am re-watching the dinner party. It's quite sad as Eve and Charlie are in a good place and so are Holly and Alex.

Sugar coating it plus rewriting what was actually said under what circumstances.

And, ya know what? Those bikinis were ugly. And no, not because of her shape. But because they were ugly and did nothing for her shape.

I do dislike bikinis as swimwear in general though, on all bodies.

I haven’t watched the dinner party one yet so haven’t read this whole thread.
But re-winding to where I last saw it, I feel sorry for Polly who’s very into Adam. It’s quite painful watching her coming across as desperate..

I actually think Adam is the one who is punching..He has a pudding basin haircut and not particularly handsome. Yet Polly is quite attractive I think..

Do any ladies in here think Adam is a catch ?

Exactly. And it’s the men who don’t find the women attractive who are cajoled and pushed into relationships with their matches. You don’t find the women who are matched with men they e don’t find attractive being bullied into sleeping with them by the experts.

That’s actually a really good point. It’s quite creepy

Yep!

I mean they seemed sort of suited. Both slightly posh. Surely there are other qualities they Match on?
I mean me and the bloke match on "you like playing games and he is happy to code at sane time" which works for harmonious living!

Holly with the kids shouting that she won't be introducing Alex to her kids. I mean does he care?

And when the experts say "but this is your partner" about sone rudeness. Well they have been together a week and not from choice. Not someone I'd consider a partner, more like a cell mate!

@Paul2023

You clearly haven't read much of these threads! 🤣

But in real life the person would swipe right or you'd have one coffee date and move on. You wouldn't have much discussion about why not interested. No one would be that invested in it to demand a reason.
