That's the problem with having the same experts pair and counsel them. Because they have a personal stake in the couples working out, their advice is tainted. Did anyone catch how many weeks we have until decision day?

If Sonia and Nick agreed not to reveal they had sex, but Sonia revealed it anyway, how is Nick the bad guy for continuing to deny it? And, if Nick was the one who insisted that they keep it a secret, what does it say about Sonia that she went along with it? Or, was it Sonia's idea? Maybe it's down to editing, but this whole thing is very odd.

Can you repost it?

I found that disturbing as well. The producers should not be interfering. It's bad enough these know-nothing experts are handing out their crappy advice.

I bet the producers went into a frenzy when they decided to divorce so early. They already stretch this show out to the MAX. Now, we'll be stuck with several more weeks of Heather and Derek reminiscing about their marriage that never was.

You know, I don't blame Heather. If a man can't put his best foot forward during, at least, the first week of marriage, what is there to look forward to? At 35, Derek, should have been able to put his vice down for the purpose of getting to know his new bride. And, even if he couldn't, he should not have become argumentative and resorted to name-calling once questioned. Heather seems to love her job and should not have to compromise her career because her new husband might decide to board their flight one day with pot (I firmly believe it was pot based on his coy response whenever asked). Heather took a glimpse at her future and said "hell no!" The show has done her a massive disservice by refusing to discuss the real issue head on.

This is why I'm skeptical when some say that this show should avoid casting people in their 20s. I think some of the older participants (not that people in their 30s are old) come with their own issues - like Nick. I too think he did this show to appease his mother, who probably wants grandchildren. But I don't think he wants to share his life or home with someone. A lot of things came out about Tres after the show ended. I think he did what he had to for a good edit (ever the salesman) but his words didn't necessarily meet his actions off camera, which drove some of her insecurities. I also don't think he dressed that well.

Based on this week's revelations, Nick's comment (last week) that the marriage was at an 8-9 seems pretty phony.

Guess so. Because I don't recall her family saying anything of the sort.

I don't recall that, but maybe they were taping her in the middle of picking out clothes or doing laundry? I sometimes lay things out on my bed too. Doesn't mean I had a doting mother who picked up after me. I wouldn't match her up with Vaughn or David, FWIW.

I remember him cleaning up the house ONCE in preparation for her birthday. Who knows, he may have been the one to make the mess that day. Other than that, I don't remember the house being a mess. She also cooked a lot. I don't recall any wives from any other season doing much cooking.

I agree. I was surprised he didn't try to ease her into the situation. It's the respectful thing to do when you know the other person has a serious fear.

I actually think Sonia and David would be a good match. They are both amiable and seem to be looking for love. And, there's nothing about Vanessa that said slob. She always wore cute dresses. Plus, she and Tres were also the only couple to dress appropriately for the expert visits.

You don't usually hold back so it must be bad.

There's nothing to be gained from engaging on that Facebook page. Nick and Sonia would wise to stick to their own social media accounts to the extent they wish to with communicate with fans.
