Such great points 😃🙌💯! Emily only likes Brennan because he's playing hard to get and she's trying to hold onto her winning streak of making it past a 3rd date- even if her partner has zero attraction to her. I think that the couples who do make it to decision day and beyond on this show are a blend of desperation and Stockholm Syndrome. I'm sure Brennan would be animated and flirtier if he was paired with a lady that he thought was hot. Hell, we saw that he had great chemistry and happiness with a horse, so he can be fun and animated when paired with something he enjoys. She absolutely should match his effort and pull back. She looks so desperate making faces and complaining. Also, she really needs to blend her extensions better with her actual very fine hair that's too yellow for platinum blonde extensions.

I completely agree! Michael should've told the experts to screw off when they asked him to go back onto this show. He has a very flamboyant, colorful type of style and a personality that's probably an acquired taste- it won't be easy for him to find a wife- but he should try to find her on his own without this show. I predict that his second chance won't work out. This show is the definition of "settling". I'm in my 30's, unmarried and I find dating apps to be annoying sometimes, but I am an amazing catch in every regard, and I'll be dammed if I ever let some sleazy tv "experts" pick a man for me out of a file of leftover, lackluster men. These women should drop their guys, update their dating profiles and move on from these shit show marriages. 🏃‍♀️🛅🚫💍👨‍🦱 And Brennan should ride off into the sunset forever with Gucci the horse 😄.

This wedding went on way too long and I was not emotionally moved by it at all. Leslie looked great in her metallic eyeshadow and pewter off the shoulder dress- that's a "fuck you, Gerry" dress if I've ever seen one 😄🔥💃! Gerry's vows were predictably melodramatic, wordy and weepy, but what did I expect? I loved Leslie's side eye when the camera panned to her during his vows- very subtle, but she kept her cool and was poised throughout this drawn-out event. I'm sure we'll see Gerry and Teresa during their honeymoon and maybe a follow up episode on 48 Hours. 😏 (just kidding!) The Amazon product placement was sooo heavy handed- I don't even know them and they want me to scan an app on my tv and buy them a blender?! No thank you! 😅

I definitely agree. Becca seems to have a lot of religious hang ups and trauma around religion- she might have a phobia of religion or is hoping that Austin sees Christianity as a hobby rather than a major belief system. Becca needs a lot of reassurance, and it might wear on Austin in the long run to have to comfort her and build her up all of the time. I've noticed that she seems to compliment him in order to receive compliments back. I wish that this show would require couples to videotape their major fights before or after they have to report for filming each day. I'd understand more about how each person handles conflict and the fights would be interesting to watch and analyze.

I hated the steak dinner outfits- the girls are dressed like they're going to a Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion and the guys look like they just waited in line at the DMV or washed their cars. Why is Becca so bent out of shape over some backwards baseball cap guy telling her she's potentially going to hell? I genuinely think that Austin isn't that into her and he's using religion as a way to get out of the marriage. Lastly, Michael is the type of guy who is very eclectic, and a specific woman really has to understand and see beforehand to date, let alone marry- he's rocking serial killer eyeglasses, loud Lula Roe style floral joggers and penny loafers. Get the man a hairstylist and a personal stylist, MAFS!

Hahaha thank you for the laugh 🤣🙌!! It's so true! I think she has the halfhearted side hug down- but anything more than that is a bridge too far for her! I don't even think that she's kissed him yet, right? I think that Brennan, Clare, Austin and Orion aren't into their partners so they're fabricating big issues to use as an easy scapegoat to get out of the relationship.

Happy Holidays @kristen111 🙌🌹😊 and the rest of you Golden Bachelor/Bachelor Nation Primetimers 🙌🌹😊! It's so much fun to read everyone's comments each week! I'll see you all when Joey, the cute tennis instructor starts his journey next month. I have a feeling that this will be... "the most dramatic season ever!" 😄📺🎾👨‍🦱🌹👧💃

Emily should've never applied for this show- it's so reckless to jump from never making it past 2 or 3 dates to signing up for a televised arranged marriage. She needs more experience and to mature a little- she keeps pulling really childish and exaggerated facial expressions instead of talking about what she's thinking. Brennan is shutting down emotionally because he's not attracted to Emily- he feels trapped and he's counting down the days until this experience is over. The "experts" and Emily keep backing Brennan into a corner and trying to know exactly why he isn't physically attracted to her. Does she want a humiliating blow-by-blow breakdown from Brennan about why he's not attracted to her? What good would that really do her? She'll find a guy who wants her and is attracted to her- it's just not Brennan. If Austin had a woman he was totally into and wanted to bone, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be delaying sex by harping on potential issues about their non-existent future children going to church or synagogue 😄. Becca lays it on thick and Austin never really reciprocates in initiating kisses, longingly looking into her eyes or giving hugs- it's all her initiating and expressing affection. She's more into him than he is into her. When the therapist suggested foreplay, Austin said, "Alright? I guess we can do that... 🥴"- he's not raring to go and none of the men on this show want to throw it down with their assigned wives. Clare isn't into Cameron but wants the MAFS paycheck for completing the process. We're dealing with a lot of people pussy footing around their real thoughts and feelings in order to get a good edit on TV. I hope these contestants all find love someday with people that they choose for themselves in real life on dating apps.

Brennan doesn't want to insult Emily by saying exactly why he isn't physically attracted to her. Why do the experts keep trying to get him to say it in front of Emily? What good would that do for her or her self-esteem? I also thought that the therapist's pink suit was a little tight and wasn't the most flattering- fun color, but a little too bold for a therapy session. Also, that group potluck was pretty depressing, even the cake slices that Orion brought didn't cheer any of these couples up! 😅

Emily's friends are barracudas 😄! I finally figured it out, Emily's loud and trashy friends in the neon wigs remind me of the rough rival band called The Misfits from Jem and the Holograms! 😄🙌💯

Emily's skanky/combative friends wanted to get a rise out of Brennan, and he played it cool- I was hoping he'd at least cuss them out. I couldn't stand her friends annoying vocal fry and overuse of the word "like"- birds of a feather flock together since Emily talks the same way 😏. Brennan's face is interesting to read- the looking away and closing of his eyes when Emily looks at him hopefully and does that weird smile with her mouth closed. Clare was annoying when she kept stressing about ordering the food. I admire how Cameron shut down the conversation about his dad- the friend asked a loaded question about his relationship with his father, and he answered it honestly so that she'd back off. Bold move, Cameron- bravo! 😄 Becca looks at Austin like a gecko trying to size up a fly 👀- way too intense with her eye contact and much more into him than he is into her. She has ZERO mystery to her- way too clingy. He's not that special- a dime a dozen immature man-boy who wears hats indoors and lies around like a hop toad 😐. I think he's going to use the religious differences as a way out and he's not boning her because he's not that attracted to her. All of the parties were half assed and trashy.

So Neil Lane is getting all of his Zales rings back- since Eliza and Aaron broke up too 🙌💯📺😅! I knew that none of them would last! Oh no- did Aaron forget Eliza's breakfast order?! 👀🍳🥯🥭😄😆 Did Eliza slip and forget to put on her cloyingly sweet little girl voice?! The world will never know!

LOL!! I wonder what she found in Orion's bedside drawers- Orion admitted to Lauren that he has a collection of sex toys (that he of course uses in his mom's house). 🥴😧

Yeah, the backwards baseball caps are not a good look and its rude for men to wear hats indoors. Clare's lips are a little ducky 🦆 looking and the lip filler migration into her philtrum is pretty noticeable when I see her side profile, hopefully she can have the filler dissolved.

Lauren left nothing to the imagination with that sex talk- tasteless, zero mystery and she went from 0 to 60. She couldn't read all of Orion's stiff side hugs and hesitant facial expressions?! He's not into her- and what made it even more awkward was she used the very outdated term "fellatio" to refer to oral sex and kept saying she "likes it when guys go around it and not on it, but around it and over it" - a very strange mix of beating around the bush 😉 and being too bold. It was presumptuous for her to even talk about sex since they have zero chemistry and barely even know each other. 😏👀📺

I thought that Emily getting hammered with the shots and the grapefruit slices on her honeymoon was a bad look- and Brennan seemed reluctant to want to drink anymore and Emily kept pressuring him to finish the shots with her. Emily is not going to age well if she keeps boozing it up. They're incompatible based on drinking and the lack of attraction to Emily is the final straw for Brennan. Lastly, I hate how these experts encourage and guilt trip contestants into "letting attraction grow"- if it isn't there, it isn't there. Men are ruthless on dating apps- they don't think, "Well, I'm not attracted to her at all- but what if she has a great personality?", they swipe left if there's even a shadow of a doubt and I think women should do the same and if the looks and chemistry aren't there, don't waste her time or his time. The problem with this show is, most of these couples would ghost each other after a first date, but since they're on MAFS, they have to go through with the contract and the process. Can these couples legally get an annulment since filming is so short and some haven't even consummated the marriage?

That was so smart of your mom to get the best silk and lace, alter the pattern and fit it to you- a labor of love and I bet it's such a beautiful dress! I love lace and silk together, a very elegant and fancy combo. I also liked Clare's dress- it showed off her athletic frame and her curves and the rhinestones along the straps, chest and back were cute. Weather Girls wear some interesting outfits- a lot of times they're super stylish and flattering and other times they're overpowered by a too big print or an ill-fitting blazer. I notice fashion when I'm out and about too- what I see a lot is petite women wearing a purse on one shoulder with a long strap that isn't adjusted so the purse hits about 9 inches below their butt 😐. I just want to run up to them and fix it, but I can't 😄.

Good point! I completely blanked on the January weather in Colorado since I'm born and raised in a city on the West Coast that doesn't experience snow, so I don't have any major winter clothing. 🙂

That's so wonderful that your mom designed and made your wedding gown- I bet that it's a very beautiful and elegant one-of-a-kind work of art! Wedding dresses are so pretty to look at- I like to watch the show called "Say Yes to the Dress" and the seamstresses do amazing work. There should be a reality tv show about seamstresses- the career is so interesting. You brought up a great point about Clare possibly not packing well for the honeymoon! It's hard to pack for a trip and maybe she was such a bundle of nerves that she threw stuff in her bag without any rhyme or reason. I'd also like to see her outfits now that she's back home. Clare seems to not be into Cameron- especially his lack of style and his super short shorts.

We could definitely dish about petite fashion tips for hours- I bet your outfits look very stylish and it's wonderful that your mom taught you about the art of fashion and fit through her seamstress expertise and fashion sense. Seamstress work is such an artform. I definitely agree, Clare's baggy clothes don't do her athletic curvy frame justice- I see what she's trying to do with the 90's throwback denim trucker jackets and the color block tops with distressed jeans, but she needs to size down on her clothes. Baggy tops AND baggy pants can overpower petite frames, especially if worn together- so if she wants the distressed boyfriend jeans, she should wear a fitted top, or if she wants the baggy button up, she should go for fitted or skinny jeans. Also, Clare could benefit from learning about color theory and her "color season" because her yellow, blonde highlights and color choices for outfits really clash against her skin tone. Lastly, Cameron was a major jerk for not helping Clare with her baggage in the airport!

Eliza's fake little girl voice is so high pitched and exaggerated- I wish her well, but I can't handle another season of it. Aaron knows her breakfast order and that's about the only thing he knows about her- such deep knowledge of his fiancé 😏. Kylee should just buy herself a ring if she wants it so badly. She's begging Aven who she's known for a few weeks to marry her, and he still wanted to date her after that?! She's so desperate- guys on the dating apps would sprint home and never look back if they encountered that behavior so early on. Kylee only wants the Niel Lane diamond ring and the fanfare that comes with an engagement. Thank you for making this season fun for me, BIP Primetimer posters!

I wish that I could be 5'1.5"! I'm 4'11" and I've found looking my best is all about optical illusions. I have some tricks to visually elongate my frame that I've learned over the years: high waisted skinny jeans, slightly cropped sweaters and tops, cropped jackets, miniskirts or shorter bodycon dresses, pointed flats or pumps etc. Express brand high waisted ankle length short inseam skinny jeans are perfect on me- I have 40 pairs in different color washes 😄. I stick with brands and fits that I know and buy multiples in different colors when something is a perfect fit for my short athletic frame 🙂. Emily and Clare could learn a lot from us!

My apologies- I love Rudy!!! I'm 35 and I used to watch The Cosby show on Nick at Night as a kid! What a bitch I am for forgetting who she was! Please forgive me Primetimers and Little Rudy! 😄💯🙏

Who even is Keisha?! Are we supposed to know who she is? And I hate the stupid polls that they expect people to do during the After Party show- it's hard enough to stay awake during this show and now they want me to get on my computer or phone and vote?! No thank you, MAFS producers!

I totally agree! I couldn't do it either- to each their own, but I want a straight husband. I'm an unabashedly straight lady who loves chest hair, facial hair, old school masculinity, etc so I would expect the men I date to be straight and only have attraction towards women.
