I couldn't find the great one liners from the last few episodes

Have missed a few episodes and am trying to catch up, not only on the tv but these threads. It's a lot to try to read/watch in one go 😬

One thing that's really confusing me is why does Gaston lie about pretty much everything? And what's the big deal about him having x number of relationships? I recall him saying at the beginning that he'd never had a serious relationship, or did I imagine that. (Chemo + meno brain fog is the worst). What's so bad about 16 relationships - why couldn't he just be honest about hat? Or is it really some kind of code for something out. So much weirdness from him. So many questions about this. Ditto Amy's face which seems to be getting fuller and puffier with exasperation at not only Gaston's lying but his cheesiness and terrible sexual innuendos.

Poly really needs therapy about so many things, particularly her neediness and constant need for affirmation. She also needs to wake up and realise that in this instance at least, the lack of being told she's beautiful etc is because Adam just does not fancy her or find her attractive. I also think that her lack of self-esteem is why she behaves the way she does, on all counts - and until she works on that, she's going to be doomed to repeat the same mistakes - both getting involved with men who aren't attracted to her and needing constant affirmation.

'The lights are on, but you're not home. Your mind is not your own' are lyrics that spring to mind whenever I see Nathan. Maybe that's the secret for a happy life? Either way, he's as happy as Larry and who would have thought he and Lacey would be the couple to make it. Not me, that's for certain. They're like a pair of school kids embarking on their first romance. It's kind of cute. Nauseating, but cute!

Not looking forward to Polly's return. She's vile. Hopefully we'll be spared Alex 🙏🏻

Nathan was sweet

I don't know that he has any less going on upstairs than Lacey but he's obviously socially awkward. They say he has adhd but he seems autistic to me not that I should diagnose, I just wouldn't be so quick to write him off as thick.

It was annoying me when Sasha's said said he understands Ross wanting to be near his daughter as he feels the same - I'm paraphrasing so hopefully haven't got it wrong - but Ross's daughter is 3 or 4? Sasha is an adult! It's not the same!

Mill3nnial · 07/11/2024 07:56

Also Polly and Shitlid finally getting on okay - I kind of thing it should be that difficult although I know it's an experiment. I can't imagine it will last.

I liked Amy at the start but I've really gone off her. She was awful to Luke when he met her friends. He would never have done that to her in front of his friends and if he had she'd have gone mad. He's a nice guy. The sexual innuendo isn't for me either and he does need to sort that out but she's a bit nasty to him. He means well he just seems to have no filter! Not okay but he doesn't deserve that.

Agree with PP who said it seemed she was in her own house and then it became her mum's house not that it matters but there was definitely an impression she had her own house as I even thought to myself she's doing well as it looked nice!

Mill3nnial · 07/11/2024 07:57

I've never watched MAFS before so if anyone has any recommendation of another series to watch I may watch another if they're any good!

They all are, it is a prerequisite of being on the show.

More than averagely for the show

MouldOrPaintOnlyOneWayToFindOut · 07/11/2024 08:12

What does the last sentence of the thread title mean? I know what the sex duck is but just can't understand the sentence

Return of Holly, not Polly. Bloody chemo brain 🤦🏻‍♀️

How could you tell the difference from her usual face? She had no makeup on in those scenes, so maybe that's why she was looking puffy.

Ooh maybe that was her, um, natural look.

Speccytwit · 07/11/2024 08:37

on catch up from last nights show.

Nice outfit Amy - but really NOT daywear ! Who chose the activity ?

TriangleLight · 07/11/2024 08:38

I’m beginning to think Gaston is winding her up a bit, as it’s all hopeless anyway.

MAFS Australia is (IMO) the best of the franchise. Season 6 was a good one, and Season 9.

LivelyMintViper · 06/11/2024 22:37

Who was the lady in one of the previous series who couldn't open her mouth without making some sort of suggestive remark? A real turn off for her luckless husband. Anyway she and Luke are soul mates! Can you picture it? Nudge nudge wink wink slobber slobber lick lick. Groan. Sex duck explodes.

😂 so funny!

wizzler · 07/11/2024 09:12

Watching on catch up ... how sweet are Nafe and Lacey . Fingers crossed they make it long term

Speccytwit · 07/11/2024 09:19

Awww yes - Nathan and Lacey! How sweet they both are . I even shed a little tear watching Lacey open the star gift

i hope they make it

Towerofsong · 07/11/2024 09:35

So, with Gaston's 8 or 15 relationships.....I'm sure I remember when he was introduced at the start he said he had dated but not had any actual relationships..
I mean, people define things differently, but surely they'd stick to their own same definition ...

Amy should stop getting her lips inflated so they mush all over her face every time she purses them and looks pissed off.

And Polly.....just leave it....he may care for you but he's just not that into you, stop trying to force him to lie.

SL may have a bad haircut but he has had integrity all the way through (except perhaps the wedding night).

Nafe and Lacey are adorable

Sacha and Ross.....I honestly thought the locket was going to have a pic of her mum and dad in.

Onacuctustree · 07/11/2024 10:10

All I have to say is that Lacey and Nathan...
Absolutely wonderful.
He doesn't get it a lot of the time because he has to process.

But when he does...

So lovely.
I really hope they can make it work.

I used to work with someone like this.
She ended up being known as Babs after Barbara Windsor.

TheHappiestChristmasTree · 07/11/2024 10:59

I don't post much on these threads, I'm more of a lurker. But I thought I'd mention what Polly said on last nights show- they were reflecting on the process and she said something about 'the last 6 weeks'. So it would seem the whole process only takes 6 weeks- no wonder it feels intense!

It feels like we've been here for way more than 6 weeks!

Tittat50 · 07/11/2024 11:17

@MouldOrPaintOnlyOneWayToFindOut I noticed Amy's face change. It was definitely more inflated in one part and looked quite out of shape.

Tittat50 · 07/11/2024 11:18

You know things are bad when that's what you notice.

Rainbow321 · 07/11/2024 11:21

I've realised I'm watching the show this year just so that when I'm on here I know what you are all going on about .
This hasn't been a great year show wise so I'll probably make it my last . Will miss joining the thread though !

Victoriawould24 · 07/11/2024 11:23

I know it's irrelevant in the bin fire this season has been but why do they all pretend that they have arranged these dates , Polly saying 'I did this just for you' 🥴.
I was thinking maybe they have them presented as options on a list by the production team so technically they are choosing.

I also think Ross is as cognitively lacking as Nafe easily, he doesn't appear to have the capacity to even understand the seriousness of what he has done and can only parrot the same shit all the time 'I just want to make you appy'.

Tittat50 · 07/11/2024 11:31

@CheeseWisely yes MAFS Australia Season 6 was a good one.

Tittat50 · 07/11/2024 11:33

This thread has been a real joy for me. I'm only hanging on watching MAFS for this thread!
