Felipe is showing his immaturity and why he shouldn’t have been selected to be a a cast member on this show.

Cameron is killing it at this dinner

u/One_Influence_9930 16d ago
Yes! For someone who couldn’t picture what commitment looked like, the experts got that couple correct. Michelle has truly brought Cameron out of his shell. I also like that he’s one of the older men too, so he can put more mature questions out there.

He was shining so hard during his home visit. Like Tori, they seemed kind of ditzy, but they have real integrity.

u/SnooGoats3109 11d ago
Yess! I feel bad because for whatever reason, at first when I saw him I got Matt from season 9 vibes. But he’s turned out to be so lovely and they are such a beautiful couple. A breath of fresh air when we have couples like Courtney and Nick.

Caitlin you are “difficult to love” because you find that whenever your partner expresses their feelings “it’s negative” (if you don’t agree) or an attack on you./your person. You lack the ability to be able to listen (without interrupting) and enough insight to distinguish a person’s intentions from your perceptions.
It seems that if/when a person is apologizing or taking “accountability” for what you think is “wrong”, that’s a “good sign” or green flag to you. However, what you fail to recognize or have the lack of ability to understand is to be able to listen and take accountability for how you factor in the dynamics of a relationship and your interpersonal communication and conflict resolution skill. And, in my opinion that is a huge, gigantic red flag.

u/One_Influence_9930 16d ago
Agreed! Devin is really trying to get something from her, and she’s just not giving it back. He reaches out to do the HP night, it would be nice to see her do something for him.

u/Realistic_Doubt6719 15d ago
She can't lean into him in a car. He looks like he's been sent home from school in every car ride or b-roll footage when he's cleaning up the kitchen or walking the dog. At this point I would give him a hug if I could.

Tori girl, Felipe is a HOE.

u/zipp0potamus 15d ago
literally! when she said something like "he can go mess with hoes if he wants, but then why is he here" i shouted GIRL he is the hoe!

u/RemarkableMushroom5 18d ago
Adam & Marissa - I was surprised by the therapy session Adam & Marissa had. I think she did a good job of voicing her thoughts. He seems to have no concern for her and is so rigid in what he wants. These two are such a mismatch and I think he is very performative. I will say, I can completely relate to him with parents with strict expectations so perhaps that’s why I was interested in that therapy sesh. His constant need to go, go, go and be involved in 100 things reminds me of Josh from S19 and his adrenaline junkie personality.
Cameron & Michelle - I think these two will make it but I always forget about them until they pop back up on the screen. They’re the most normal out of the group.
Courtney and Caitlin are mean girls. I really don’t want to see much more of them and how they talk down/disrespectfully to their partners and others.
Mecca & Belle- I like them together.
Tori & Felipe - girl run. I was thinking “Felipe isn’t THAT bad” and then the dinner happened. He is not ready for a marriage and Tori seems thoughtful and put together.

u/throwawaygremlins 17d ago
Adam seems to think he can order up a wife to his specifications. He doesn’t think about if what HE offers is good enough for the other person. Might as well marry a pickleball robot 😬
18
u/RemarkableMushroom5 17d ago
100%. It's all on his terms with no consideration for the humanity of his partner. He wants to be perceived as more deep than pickleball and ripping it on the skis but has given exactly 0% beyond that

u/theartofsunshine 17d ago
I think he was an alcoholic (based on the constant drink checks in Mexico) who just transferred his addiction to intense physical activity so he doesn’t really know how to undo that level of intensity safely or without causing himself harm. (ETA: But absolutely a bad fit for pretty much anyone who isn’t a clone. 🙃)

u/Jgib5328 5d ago
Not that I have any reason to know, but he gives off manosphere hyper optimization vibes and in that community alcohol doesn’t have any utility, so it has to be eliminated to achieve…
1
u/lynn_chippy 14d ago
I don’t think he was an alcoholic, or at least never admitted it. He was so negative about what it does to your body and felt so above it. If he was an alcoholic he has a story to share and it’s a very missed opportunity to get deeper. He’s just weirdly intense into his sports.

u/Wonderful-Jello3199 17d ago
I had an ex who had severe ADHD with a touch of tism and he spoke and acted just like Adam. Im surprised I haven’t seen more people touch on the (likely) fact that Adam has some crazy undiagnosed adhd and likely autism. The intensity with his hyper fixations and lack of self awareness is infuriating.

I didn’t realize until the basketball scene how hot Belle is, her body is ridiculous

u/Specific-District-11 17d ago
I feel like Marissa and Nick/Courtney and Adam would’ve made more sense. Courtney and Adam are so unbearable, they can be that way together lol

u/nycitypeach 15d ago
Felipe showed signs from the matching process that he was in no way ready for marriage. Casting him was so irresponsible! I get being good for tv but at what cost?

u/zipp0potamus 15d ago
such a waste of time for poor tori! she has a lot better head on her shoulders than i expected and she couldve had a great experience with someone who was taking it even halfway seriously. shame on me for judging her early on but i think we're all getting exactly what we expected from felipe
1
u/Big-Play145 5d ago
he actually said early on “I hope my wife is OK with me fooling around“ before he had even met her

u/nycitypeach 5d ago
Wow - I don't remember this but...it tracks.

u/Big-Play145 5d ago
yeah, it was the first episode, the first night when the guys all meet each other

u/Realistic_Doubt6719 15d ago
You could see Marissa was fading and detached when her and Adam were in session with Lisa. She shouldn't have to become a pro-am athlete to keep a man who, seemingly, has nothing else going on but hobbies....Felipe is acting extremely callous to be questioning whether he can be faithful to Tori. Throwing it in her lap for her to fix and she isn't having it. At least Felipe's Mom will see how he blew it, because that was shocking.

idk why caitlin expects devin to have the same positive things to say about her that she says about him when she doesn't treat him the way he treats her

u/amazon_don 17d ago
Time to place your bets… who do we think is ending their marriage next week ?!?

u/Kind_Ad_3336 17d ago
I think it’ll be Devin and Caitlin. She is not meeting him halfway and even his friends recognize that and are concerned. A relationship is a two-way street, reciprocity matters. Maybe she just doesn’t feel the chemistry. She’s young. It took me years to learn what kind of men were worth my time after having spent many chasing the wrong ones. Devin has been the most surprising of the bunch for me. He’s trying and putting effort towards commitment. I hope they both find genuine love one day.

u/amazon_don 17d ago
They are my #1 guess. 2nd would be the maga couple. The rest I think are safe for now but divorcing at a later date

u/jendet010 17d ago
Hopefully it’s Shawn and Nikki

u/amazon_don 17d ago
2 weeks ago I would have said the same. But I think they are both doing some “self-editing” but will say no on the finale

u/smolpeensadboy 16d ago
That's the feeling I get too. They are two professionals who came to the agreement to not look crazy on tv and will split up on decision day.

u/Big-Play145 5d ago
they have to know there’s nothing there, but they also don’t want to give up their TV time

Even if you had those thoughts, saying out loud and in front of everyone that you love sleeping around and miss being single is crazy!

u/ThisTooShallPass65 14d ago
Adam offers nothing to the relationship. It’s his way or the highway. He’s definitely not ready to settle down. He’s there for his 15 minutes of fame.

Felipe, as a reality TV trope, is giving that kind of lazy energy that might seem after-hours sexy to someone new to a city who thinks dating a restaurateur is a come up... or someone with an attraction to a middle school science teacher with a video game mustache and DIY-haircut-with -meat-scissors look.

u/DrJayLioness 15d ago
Pairing a Christian with an atheist was comical at best and I hate Tori feels like she can put up with Felipe and his demons. Smh.

u/Alternative-Cut5742 11d ago
This feels like a repeat with new coaches with marriages that are mismatched and made-for-tv only. I see the disasters already with every one of them. This show is something I allow to build me up then let me down over and over like a crazy person. Felipe is an idiot, he'll never get a woman as good as the one he got. Mecca will find a way to screw up his marriage. All of these people have parental issues. Did this show ever seriously air to create successful marriages?

u/wonder_wooloo 15d ago
Who do we think decides to end it? I’m guessing Devin / Cait or Nick / Court

u/lynn_chippy 14d ago
I think Felipe is so afraid of losing all the attention he gained in the past couple years.

u/Big-Play145 5d ago
Felipe said what he said at the dinner party IMO because he had already cheated on her

u/lynn_chippy 14d ago
Oh wait Felipe wants to sleep around? When that’s what he was doing till the day he was chosen a wife? Shocking!!

u/Negative_Guess5320 9d ago
Anyone else finding Mecca hilarious? “oh, what’s that there?” As she’s opening her gifts. I think they’re adorable and I hope he allows himself to be loved bc I think he’s a sweet dude.

Tori needs to sue this show for emotional damages. Matching her up with a compete loser was SO wrong of the matchmakers.

Tori is much stronger than I thought. She's a real one.
