S14.E07: This is My Decision Day

[kristen111]

Secret roommates, cats and dogs in the beds, clutter all around, small rooms.  I’d opt for a better and bigger apartment with windows.

His apartment looked a mess.

I think the landlady did some “redecorating” in order to deal with the bed bug infestation.

[candall]

Ack!  You can't just throw cats in together like that!  I've spent WEEKS isolating different animals from each other, letting the smells kind of drift out and intermingle, progressing to visuals from opposite sides of a barrier.

One of those cats is going to start marking his territory.  ☠️

Yeah, she probably did but I still wonder what that place must have looked like before, although I'll never know, lol.

If I was Mark, I COULD NOT live with Lindsey,  At his apartment, she tells him what he can keep and what he has to throw out.  She over talks him constantly.  She doesn't listen, she tells him how things will be.  I think she's a nice person, just way too controlling all the time.

He. Has. BEDBUGS! Lindsey should insist that he leave EVERYTHING behind!

I’m here and ready to give Alyssa the Bronx Cheer, loud and long.

I think you are confusing her with Shark. He blows big ones.

[Kiss my mutt]

Olajuwon has some pretty nice digs compared to the rest. Jasmina should thank her lucky stars she didn’t walk into a Mark situation.

I’ve never seen a single guy who has quotes decaled all over his home. I thought I’d ventured into wine mom, USA territory.

I hope Lindsey and Mark aren’t going to dump his stuff out of those bags into her apartment.

I can’t decide if Mother Alyssa looks more like Don Rickles or Sid Caesar in drag.

Don't forget the LED "party lights"! Boom-chicka-BOW-wow!

[CSunshine76]

How old are these people? I’m really surprised at how some of them live. I get it, if they are in Boston, it’s expensive, and I assume places are smaller than I’m used to (Texas here). But it really seems like people are just starting out like one would in their early 20s with mismatched cheap furniture and hand me downs. Not impressed!

[Auntie Anxiety]

Alyssa is trying to sell her very special brand of bullshit but I’m not buying it.

Hear me out---Shelley Berman. Amirite?!

I did not know the police check your Instagram before deciding to respond to you calls! This is good to know!

You nailed it! 

[Kiss my mutt]

Oh come on, Alyssa, if he had six pack abs, you’d be hollering about defunding the police. She is full of shit,  She need's Lindsey’s squatty potty.

Notice how jasmine flopped a pillow between her and Michael. Body language wise that spoke volumes to me. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

I’m kind of loving Jasmina. She’s kicking ass and taking names.

Boston is expensive - she may be paying for location over size and natural light.

ACE is full of shit, especially as she unironically informs her mother that she and Chris need "better communication" for her to want to stay on decision day. Try giving him your phone number and actually having a conversation with him.

[candall]

Okay, I'm now officially done with all the nonsense of people probing into exactly what Alyssa needs to participate in her marriage with Chris.  SHE DESPISES HIM.  She would let him die before she would let him be her husband.  Stop pretending like this has any chance at all of working out.

I’m afraid Mark will have a breakdown.  Between family problems, getting married,moving in with Lindsey, and her personality in general, I’m afraid he is on the brink of cracking up.  She’s not helping the situation either.  I think he has to be alone for awhile and get his thoughts together.  How much can he take?  He needs peace n quiet.

[Auntie Anxiety]

You said it, @candall. It’s already day six of sitting shiva for the death of this marriage.

She seems like a nice lady, but I was wondering the same thing.  

[LennieBriscoe]

I can believe Michael about his not yelling. Some people think any increased volume is "yelling." 

[Mindthinkr]

Wow. That’s the first time I think I’ve actually heard good advice given by one of the experts. 

[candall]

Oh, look.  Jasmina has taken a page from Alyssa's book.  ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR?!?!?!

Holy shit, people, someone can have an opinion different from yours and it doesn't constitute calling you a liar.  Step down.

[Mindthinkr]

Wow. Pastor Cal is on fire 🔥 this episode.

Given his family responsibilities, maybe going on this show at this time was a miscalculation. 

I like Lindsey, though. And I think MTS could use her strength. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Here comes O and his bullshit, “I was testing her.” In 3......2......1

[spunky]

I guess Michael is one of those people who believe an omission is not a lie. Oh so Michael sends his representative on camera and the real him comes out once they leave.  Now I understand why Jasmina seems checked out.

Alyssa please go away. You hated Chris the moment you laid eyes on him. His social media posts are not the problem,  YOU ARE!

Exactly Pastor Cal! Olajuwon wants her to be pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen.

I think this show needs an entirely new slate of experts. You know, people who actually know something about relationships?

Shelley Berman, R.I.P.  He made it to 92.

[JenE4]

Mark, Lindsey, Will one of you please PRESS START. They’re as blind to the microwave’s signals as they are to each other’s.

[Straycat80]

Steve is right, play it by ear basically. I remember when I wanted four kids, I stopped after two because…life. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Noi has no idea how much work it is to be a parent. How about let’s start with one.

I developed respect for Lindsey's commitment to the marriage when I found out Mark had been farting on her in bed and she didn't brain him with a lamp.   FFS, Sharky, that's not a first date sort of thing, if you're hoping for Date #2.

[JenE4]

Pastor Cal walks in and Noi and Steve are like we’re perfect! We agree about everything! Now it turns out they completely disagree on “the biggies”—kids and jobs/money! But you both like to dance, so there’s that.

[Kiss my mutt]

Noi is being ridiculous saying it has to be three kids. It’s not like you get to fill out an order form and she’s not a spring chicken, and the crying that her husband might not make enough money for her taste. She has a job, I’m assuming. 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Steven is MAFS’ answer to Peter Pan.

 Boston is not expensive.

I have a feeling that Noi and Steve will work things out.  I sure hope so.

[Mr. Miner]

Mr. Free Spirit went on a huge roadtrip and slept in his car in Wal Mart parking lots all over FL.

[Straycat80]

Is Steve making excuses for not getting a job? I see a big red flag waving.

Steve did this?  (I was busy composing my manifesto about farting on your lover.)

Did Jasmine make spaghetti wearing that hat?
