Second chances? Why would they give Molly a second chance when she was so horrible? Molly wasn't part of Second Chances as it was filmed before her MAFS season. Dave definitely isn't getting any third chances, thankfully. They probably met at one of the MAFS SM events or something. Present & past participants are always posting pics of themselves hanging out somewhere, to promote the show. 4 Link to comment

I actually liked him quite a bit, before Second Chances... Molly was on MAFS and was extremely obnoxious imho. 5 Link to comment

aphroditewitch November 1, 2018 Share November 1, 2018 I feel bad for Amber because she probably feels as though she was set up to fail. They matched her with someone who has no true interest in being a husband. So I can't slam her for being upset when it seems clear that Danielle and Bobby were the only match with any potential, while the she and others were there to pad the show with drama. 5 Link to comment
ShaNaeNae November 13, 2018 Share November 13, 2018 Neil was my coworker until I switched jobs in June. It wasn't until the end of the season I realized I worked with Neil (he was in our Atlanta office, but we still worked together on various projects and he started out in our office). I've been an avid watcher of MAFS (all things reality really) since the beginning and it was funny the day I realized it and sent him an email going "how did I not know you're MAFS Neil?" He really is a great guy. Smart, personable, funny and even better looking in person. It became a joke in our work emails I'd have a "fan girl" portion where we'd shoot the breeze show related and then "official" section for the work stuff. So I'll forever be a Neil backer. 12 Link to comment

Neurochick November 18, 2018 Share November 18, 2018 I don’t think Jephte is a jerk. I don’t think he was ever into Shawnice, and I don’t think he really wanted to get married, he does want to be a father. I don’t think these so called experts have read “Is Marriage for White People?” by Ralph Richard Banks. He said it all using, using data. Basically black men have too many options, while black women have too few. Black men are between two and three times as likely as black women to marry someone of a different race. I think an expert should ask a black man a question like “with so many options available to you regarding women, why do you want to marry now?” 2 Link to comment
gonecrackers November 18, 2018 Share November 18, 2018 Cheating on a pregnant wife is the very definition of, well, much worse than jerk. If Jephte didn't want to get married Jephte shouldn't have gone on the show to begin with, & if he didn't like Shawniece he could've left her from the get go instead of staying & being irresponsible enough to create a child with someone he isn't into. He's already set a horrible example for his daughter, so not a great start as a dad either. He's worse than a jerk. 18 Link to comment

Didn’t Shawnice know that Jephte wasn’t into her? I mean both of them are responsible for creating a baby, not just him. It’s not like he held a gun to her head and said, “have a baby with me.” Or is it always the man’s responsibility? As far as him leaving the show when he knew he wasn’t into Shawnice, I think this last season showed that people stay for the financial incentive. No way Tristan would have stayed with Mia otherwise.

And I said "create a child WITH someone" - those were my words, which included Shawniece. And sure, she's just as responsible, of course. But my point was she didn't cheat on him when things were bad, & things were bad with him from the beginning. 54 minutes ago, Neurochick said: As far as him leaving the show when he knew he wasn’t into Shawnice, I think this last season showed that people stay for the financial incentive. No way Tristan would have stayed with Mia otherwise. Reg. Shawniece staying, she gave it a shot at least; she tried with him to the point of looking pathetically needy, which seems like an issue for her. He was making it difficult for her from the start. Neither had to stay but my feeling is they knew she was pregnant by 'decision day', which may have made her more invested to try, yet again, to make it work. Jephte, I believe, was just paying lip service to the marriage & maybe didn't want to dump his pregnant wife on TV. But once the cameras left he figured cheating on his pregnant wife wasn't as bad - in his twisted mind. And yeah I've said for a while now everyone with troubled matches are getting financial incentives to stay together, however, the pregnancy threw an extra twist into their situation. 5 Link to comment

She was pushy, yep, & the lap dance was awful (although I think it was a set up for the show & not done at the formal reception - they never showed people in the room in the same shot as them, so I've always side eyed it). That doesn't excuse him cheating. He obviously didn't like her & that's fine, but he should've called it quits & he definitely shouldn't have cheated on her - nothing excuses that for me. 4 Link to comment

crazychicken December 9, 2018 Share December 9, 2018 (edited) Umm I think the engagement of Dr Blondie and Jon is real, they both seem a bit famewhorish in their posts since coming out though, most of their posts are about their 'love' and how awesome they are. The relationship still smells a bit off to me, even though Molly was a nightmare they seem to enjoy throwing their 'love' about a bit too much.

gonecrackers December 24, 2018 Share December 24, 2018 (edited) Just some things that randomly jump out at me for no apparent reason... Quote Vollmoeller is ... President and CEO of Future Force Talent Connection Publicity ? Quote Sersen similarly is inspired by her parents’ 30-year marriage and wants to find a man like her father. At 35, she’s ready to settle down and start a family. (bio clock is ticking) Baby fever ? Quote Now financially stable and emotionally ready, Guess is ready to no longer be the only single guy left in his group of friends. Will watch for walls full of framed pictures of buds. Quote An independent woman, McGriff is ambitious but aspires to find the kind of love her parents have. Possible conflict with coupling up depending on what he's expecting... Quote Sisk’s parents divorced last year. Still healing, she is pessimistic about love but remains hopeful that she’ll find the right person for her. Oh for crap's sake... no potential issues there. Quote Killingsworth’s parents have been married for more than 35 years and stayed strong despite their ups and downs. A real estate agent, she hopes to find the “gold standard” like her parents. Those are some high expectations. Warming up for a new season of snark. Edited December 24, 2018 by gonecrackers 7 Link to comment

silverspoons December 31, 2018 Share December 31, 2018 I had heard about back up couples before and wondered if one of these couples is a backup. The first article awhile ago I read only had 3 pictures of couples. AJ the CEO of the talent company and his wife were not pictured. While I much rather see a backup couple then have another Mia that you know will not work out, I hope this couple is not staged to be a success story. 5 Link to comment
