Whatever. I don’t see Madison as being “the sky.” She’s a pretty girl with a good job and something of a catch but she’s not out of Allen’s league. I don’t think they were compatible but not because she is any way more desirable than he is. David is happy, sure. Good for him. But nothing else about him has changed. His housing is still provided for him and probably many of his other expenses (like utilities) and he’s still a party boy player. I guess he did purchase the “investment property” in Iowa and as long as he has a renter that covers those expenses I suppose he has a few more financial assets. There is nothing at all wrong with that, but no reason for Michelle (or anyone else) to find him any more attractive than who he was during the show.

I don’t agree. I don’t think there is a “new” David to see. He went from living in his parents’ house to living in his girlfriend’s house. That’s the only difference. I don’t think that Michelle feels like she is missing out on anything. Allen didn’t need to be remade. He was happy with himself the way he was. He made cosmetic changes to try to make Madison happy not knowing that she had already caught feelings for someone else’s husband. I think Allen is a catch. He is well employed, a nice guy, seems to have a generous and outgoing personality and he can cook. I’d take him any day (and when I was in my 20’s/30’s, I was as much a “catch” as Madison is now).

That makes so much sense!

It is a business they were supposedly starting together but there was just the one mention of it. I don't know if it ever got off the ground or not. There was no mention of the supposed feud; at the end of the episode, they seemed to still be on the same good terms that they have been. No and I wondered about that. I am surprised Emem didn't make it happen asap when she met Brandon. I thought the show took care of it as well but I'm guessing they have to divorce fairly soon after filming ends (i.e. the show isn't going to pay for a divorce like a year after the couple is done with the show). For whatever reason, I suppose Brandon and Emem didn't do whatever the show's process would be for a divorce? Ikechi sounds and acts like he has so much healing to do from his traumatic "marriage" to Emem but I don't see why. Anyway...

I think they are both done with dating and ready be married. I think they like each other enough and felt like they had enough of what they wanted to try to make a go of it. And honestly? There are worse reasons to get (stay) married...

She has to finalize the divorce from her first huzzzbinnnn…

Why does Ikechi keep asking people for divorce advice. He was legally married for about a minute and he never liked his wife. He's making It sound like he needs deep emotional support, and he probably does, but it's not because he's heartbroken about his failed marriage. Maybe that was just to give him something to do on camera? Also - Juancho's Ponchos? First - horrible idea. Second, the punctuation was incorrect in the logo. Also that commitment ceremony was just... weird. Emem put on a wedding dress but it looks like she didn't do anything with her hair or anything particularly interesting with her makeup. No flowers; no decoration... just not much going on there. Also I don't remember her having such poor posture; maybe I just didn't notice it before but her shoulders were all slumped over when she walked in the room and was standing with PC and Brandon.

I dislike stereotypes so ... Huh. Injury maybe? Firefighter was the job I was thinking of; when she (we) met him for the first date, that's what she said he did. Did I imagine it or did he also say he has his real estate license? I do hope he has another paying gig besides Emem's huzzbin too!

I didn't like his outfit but I don't think it reveals anything about his sexual orientation.

That's not what he said. Allen said that he had a first date with a woman to whom he was introduced by a matchmaker. She called and said "I'm ready for a second date" the day before he was scheduled to be married. I don't think he had heard from her between the first date and the casting process. So there was some time that passed between their first date and MAFS. She's cute! Good for him. If he is happy then I'm happy for him.

He is employed. I know he is probably paying child support but if he doesn't have to pay for a place to live, he can probably afford a few drinks. I don't get lazy at all. I think she actually works pretty hard. She seems to keep up her living space. She doesn't like to go out drinking as much as David does but she does like getting dressed up and going to dinner. Not all people who dislike working out are lazy. Who? Juan?

For whatever reason, that is off-putting to me. I don't know why.

Cross on earth, crown in heaven!

Yes, absolutely. That goes without saying :)

I also thought they looked a bit older and I think that could be a good thing. I think perhaps it's harder to find people a bit older who haven't been married before and/or don't have kids. I wouldn't care if the MAFS participants had been married before but I don't want to see a show where they have children, particularly minor children.

Congratulations to him! The world needs more nurses!

I thought everyone looked so uncomfortable in their clothes except Allen. That's part of the reason that I don't like the women wearing evening gowns; it's just hard to find one that is comfortable and looks good sitting (plus it's just a ridiculous occasion for an evening gown). I thought Juan and David also looked uncomfortable in their clothes.

Madison explained the rings in part 1 when Kevin asked. They bought them together (for some reason Juan also was with them on the shopping trip). She said they were “symbols of their commitment to each other.”

I think it was Emem's miscarriage. There's more! I think the central plot point is Emem's wedding with Brandon but maybe with other filler. I'll watch because I'm a glutton for punishment like that, but really - I'm done. They're done. Can't we all be done with each other? That is a very good job and she is on the young side to have it. Good for her. I'm not a fan of hers but I'm impressed.

Hope you are recovering well, kristen111! The most recent comment in the spoilers thread has information about future seasons. i feel like last season was worse than this one. It’s a close contest but last season I just didn’t like anyone at all and they were all awful to each other.

So they say…

Nobody watching???

I guess the grass is always greener because I would LOVE to be nearly flat. Never having to wear a bra? Priceless. I thought Karla actually looked a little better endowed on the reunion show. Just me? I thought her figure generally looked a little fuller and it was a good look on her.

It's like that last Christmas you force yourself to still believe in Santa because you want to get gifts... but deep down, you know...

Maybe Oastor Cal declines to marry Emem and Brandon?
