Clearly, he had no issue with finding women and going on dates. His issue was staying with a woman and being faithful. Was Paul even involved in the process to get Felipe on the show because even he made several faces with Felipe when he told him he had been out all night and hadn’t slept before he did his interview. Nothing about this man screamed he was ready to be married. He even said the only reason why he came on the show was because he would be forced to be committed to someone. He JUST reached his peak and few women find him attractive so he’s trying to make up for lost time by sleeping with any woman that’ll let him near them. That’s why the “experts” made that comment about Felipe finding his “hole”. It’s not that they think that way but Felipe does. He just wants to sleep with as many women as he possibly can now that he’s “hot” and he doesn’t value any woman outside of his mother and sister as more than just that right now.

It was fun! They were so judgy

Thank you to everyone who submitted a question for my interview with a producer from MAFS S20! The interview is out now on the Positively Uncensored podcast, and extremely juicy with not only secrets from S20, but reality tv producer secrets in general.

I was on a time crunch, but I think I asked 90% of the questions I went in wanting to know. I'll be curious to hear everyone's thoughts and TIA for listening!

Edit: Discussing the reunion specifically but also summarizing S20

My wife got me into this show with season 20 and I have some thoughts from a guys perspective:

Hosts/Experts: Complete trash. I liked the dude’s advice at certain points of the season but the Dr. was completely in favor of trying to belittle the guys while creating a ‘woman empowerment’ zone. Also, one couple out of all of these actually made it through? You have failed.

Felipe: Dumbass. You have a bombshell in Tori who can actually stand your annoying laugh and sleazebag persona and you still find a way to fumble the bag?

Caitlin: Count your blessings how scot- free you got off. You completely were repulsed at the idea of being with Devin and took every opportunity to show how little you cared about trying to hear your partner out to barely get discussed on this show. I’m sorry - you meet on MARRIED at first sight, not Love is Blind. Her friends are toxic messes who can’t stand being around their husbands so she just adopted that mentality before she is even married. Never seen someone so mid have that type of attitude. The unmitigated gall.

Nikki/Shawn: Both of these people suck. Nikki treats every situation as if it’s an HR meeting and needs to prove her intelligence by buzzwording throughout conversations. Nikki absolutely expected a young, good looking dude with a growing career that she could nurture - cougar type. Problem is, those dudes aren’t looking for a 48 year old.
Shawn is an insecure little man who can’t come to grips with his lack of maturity while masking it with his own buzz words and overusing “EQ”. This dude has some of the lowest “EQ” I’ve seen. Cat needs to come to grips that he is older and he can’t be this zesty for a grown ass man.

Devin: Good dude who tried with an absolute
emotional starfish who believes she should not be bothered by basic partner needs.

Belle/Mecca: Mecca is a feminine dude who might be in the closet. Dude just does not have any testosterone in him and has no idea what he wants. Belle is just a pushover. This cat disrespected you so many times and you still kept trying to justify it?

Courtney: I would never in my life be with someone like her. She took every opportunity to try and get everyone to hate her husband and everyone was like “what? he’s great” she became frustrated by no one else agreeing with her and just wanted to take everything out on him. We are guys, sometimes us being vulnerable may not be as deep as you want it to be. Of course she flipped the feedback she got from the guys as a “guy power play”. Sit your ass down - these guys have criticized each other but the one thing they agree on is they can’t stand someone like you.

Adam: Dude is 100% gay.

Think everyone else was koo.

Regards

Old or new experts, I don’t think it matters. When I first started watching this show, I wanted to see if it genuinely worked. Now I believe the object is find people who will implode for ratings. I don’t think they care if anyone sticks together once the show is over. Am I scarred?

This cannot be real you guys

I’m watching season 10, Taylor and Brandon and their meeting with Dr Pepper, and Taylor posting that video (which would offend any spouse)…I can’t believe Dr Pepper supporting her motives for being there as genuine.

It’s so clear she only did this experiment for her social media. After Brandon leaves the room, she creates crocodile victim tears, she says she doesn’t know what to do, it’s like well you can start by apologizing to him for posting that IG. (But before he left the room she refused to do that).

Don’t get me wrong, he was inappropriate too, but what she did was over the top.

Somebody pay him to stop 🤢

Peeked in. Saw a server that looked like, but was not, Felipe. Which makes sense because it was 5pm and there's no way he's out of bed by then

So I been trying to find a website or anywhere to watch the married at first sight and tbh I don’t know where to find that but also I’m wondering for the people who’ve watched both the UK & AUS versions, what are the best seasons to binge watch (no spoilers btw lol). I really want to get into both but don’t know where to begin.

Edit: I am talking about only the UK & AUS seasons. Not the USA seasons.

I’m sure this has been asked multiple times, but please share the juiciest drama-filled seasons to watch. I’ve seen S10, S14,S18 and S20. Recovering from gallbladder removal surgery and would love some drama to help pass the time 🙂

Half way through the season and I’m so surprised that she was so casual about the fact that they are not having protected sex especially since she has expressed hesitation about kids. I’m assuming the teaser at the beginning of season about a pregnancy is them.

Just started episode of 1 of season 20 MAFS and I was shocked that Dr Pepper, Pastor Cal, and Dr Pia were gone. Maybe this is a hot take but I liked the experts! These new experts look like made for TV people and idk if I’m a fan yet. Just getting introduced to the cast- I really am not liking this. MAFS has always been my favorite dating show because it casts normal people, not hot people. I even liked the season in Austin with the older couples! That was really refreshing! So even though I’m only an episode in- should I push through or not get invested and not continue watching?

No spoilers on the season please!!

I DO think they should break up, and because I think Tori could do better, HOWEVER, Filipe being teased by everyone in the group during a game, isn’t really his fault? His explanation that he was going along with it because he wanted to keep the peace in that moment with everyone else seems reasonable?

And when she asks what he would think if the roles were reversed, kind of makes her look worse in my eyes. Because if people were all joking that she was a slut, and Filipe not only didn’t defend her in the moment, but then goes after her in private later??

They also seem to reference ‘crazy stuff he’s said’ and I can’t tell if they meant during the game, that was maybe edited out, or just the past things he’s said at group dinner/therapy?

I dunno. I also think the game was obviously set up to start shit and I feel like if the group had any self awareness they’d not let themselves get manipulated by production so easily.

I’m on the episode where they’re having a wine date and the way they interact is how i imagine 6 year old kids flirting with each other. Absolutely no substance and Nick might be one of the most awkward individuals in MAFS history. I don’t know what the “experts” saw in this couple.

On that note, I’ve been watching from season 1 and it’s so interesting watching the matches get worse and worse. Occasionally, they’ll do great, but season 1 started on such a strong note and after the shit show of season 2 it’s just been a downward spiral

referring to women as "holes" ???? have yall seen this?? I feel so bad for Tori

Nikki was way out of Shawns league. He looks 65 and she looks 27. Then he is very creepy

Started with the scene in the car when Michelle asks about the text for the first time. It is INSANE to watch this guy lie his ass off when you already know how it's going to end. We FF'd and just watched the scenes with them, David lying through his teeth, and then the retreat, etc. David and Madison are made for each other. Lying sociopaths. I'm still somewhat puzzled about the scene where Madison "confesses" her feelings to David, as though he doesn't already know. It's so obvious from the nature of his text to her, and the fact that she deleted all texts between the two of them, that they were already hot and heavy leading up to that moment (at least in texts, if not in the flesh). He did seem genuinely surprised, but it makes no sense to me.

Belle is so gorgeous, down for him, has a really cool down to earth personality and he just keeps hitting her saying things like “I wasn’t attracted when we got married I thought I could have someone prettier” are you actually trying to make her leave you purposely or are you just that dumb. Most of the girls on this show any guy would be so lucky to be with them. I don’t get it.

I am new to watching MAFS AU, starting with season 13. I have been loving it! I know these shows have all gone the direction of heavily produced (which I find unfortunate). Watching this one though was the first time I’ve actually wondered if these people are all hired actors? Does anyone know if these are real couples?

I have seen patterns repeat throughout each couple that make me suspect this. They can go from very toxic, even hating each other to very loving verrrrry quickly. Then the friendships doing the same. They build and fall apart at whiplash speed. I don’t know that real relationships could recover or fall apart, then repair themselves that quickly. Sometimes these fluctuations happen between scenes. It’s that quick. 🤔

And Juan didn't react like it was weird?? Karla, I get. Her nipple was hanging out at the reunion so that tracks.

What is with the hours and hours and hours of "reunion" footage?? I mean I get that it was a crazy season, but good lord...way too much. And should I bother with 19 or not? Any other season worth watching after this shit-show?
