RHJunkie November 9, 2018 Share November 9, 2018 The highlight of this episode was Grant asking Zak if he even knows himself and Zak said 'I don't know'...I think that answer says it all, lol. Has it always been like this in past seasons because I'm so incredibly confused why all of them sat back down after the 9th beam and looked so nervous for that 10th beam. They were coupled up so if one pairing was wrong, it would mean that their match is someone else who is sitting next to someone else which in turn would make that couple wrong. The closest outcome they could have and lose the game would be 8 beams.Once they got the 9th beam, it was a given that they had won. Are they made to sit there and pretend like they don't know math or are they stupid...or shit, am I stupid? I've had a long day but I don't feel like I'm over complicating this, lol. Did they really not know? Were they made to pretend that they were nervous about the last beam? Or did they edit their reactions? I have so many questions about this, lol.

Guest June 27, 2019 Share June 27, 2019 Well, it definitely looks like Kai will be this season's Zak. He's the same brand of gleeful, shit eating fuckboy. Testosterone must be a hell of a hormone if it makes you so uncontrollably horny that you need to fuck someone else an hour after the girl you just had sex with went to sleep - lol, he's so full of shit. His girl (name???) is going to become the new Morgan if she doesn't wake up soon. I think Kai is still high off both men and women now perceiving him as irresistibly sexy as a man, which I'm sure would be a big anxiety prior to transitioning, so I can't fault him on that front, but he's still kind of a shitty opportunistic person. I guess this show is the perfect playground to revel in your male puberty. It was super fucking rude of him during the match ceremony when Danny was listing all Kai's qualities that he found attractive and Kai wouldn't even make eye contact before totally brushing him off. We found the one person in the house Kai doesn't want to bang! I don't get all the fuss over Nour, who just seems okay. Amber was practically peeing on her (not like that, Remi) to mark her territory from the minute they talked. It read as very desperate and off putting. Then Justin got all pissy with Nour for "wasting his time" with one date/make out and a confirmed non-match...chill bud, it's not like you were dating a month. Kylie is the cutest girl in the house to me personally and I think she has good chemistry with both Kali and Basit. I saw Paige on Tinder a few weeks ago lol so it's so weird seeing her on the show. She seems very awkward and I'm not sure any of the women will have the patience to hold her hand through socially coming out, as she basically admitted having zero experience with women (which seemed to turn Jasmine off on their date). It makes me laugh that most of the guys in the house all seem to share a little torch for Justin.

Also, I really like Dr. Frankie and her segment. It might be too early to say this but I hope AYTO keeps her on for future seasons. Also, I felt sorry for Danny when Kai was ignoring all of his compliments. Between that and the small segment showing Danny and Kai flirting on the bed, I'm willing to bet that they are a perfect match because.... this is MTV. I hope they aren't because I think Danny is sweet and I like that he is super nerdy. I'll be your perfect match, Danny! (if I wasn't married lol) Just an observation... but did anyone else notice that during the first match up ceremony, the women tended to pick women and the men tended to pick men?

What's the point of the truth booth if they have the beam ceremony? I must have missed the explanations. I thought this might be something fun to watch during the summer, but it's a little exhausting. The format of the show is in the group of 16 people, there are 8 "perfect matches". So the contestants need to try to determine who in the rest of the group is their "perfect match" and there is only one winning combination that is determined by "matchmakers" (i.e. MTV producers). At the beam ceremony, the contestants get a chance at guessing who their "perfect match" is and if everyone guesses correctly, they get the cash prize. Of course, that is insanely difficult to do so they get 10 chances to guess and MTV will tell them in each round how many couples are correct (but not who those couples are). So in this episode they got 2/8 couples correct. The truth booth is where the house can send in one couple and MTV will tell them with 100% clarity if that couple is a perfect match or not. This can be critical information as the season goes on. So overall, the show is one big math equation but these people are not rocket scientists and are usually very sloppy. So the logic portion (or as the contestants say "strategy") generally does not play a huge part in the show (you can leave that to nerds like myself and Danny 😉 ). ETA - I forgot to mention that if you are interested in the math, the Are You The One? Math blog does a good job breaking it down by episode and can usually predict the "perfect matches" by the 7th or 8th episode.

I guess thinking about it now, I'm assuming it's some sort of algorithm based off the contestants likes and dislikes, like those dating apps that suggest matches for you based on your profile.

All of the contestants are bisexual so anyone could theoretically end up with anyone, which is supposed to be the appeal of this season, but seems to be throwing most viewers for a loop. Kai is the only self identified transgender person in the cast (female to male). Paige is just a skinny, androgynous cisgender (the term for "not transgender") girl. As a bisexual woman with a growing preference for women, I can see how it would be possible to think that some of the participants are actually gay, especially with the men because we equate any effeminate tendencies in men with homosexuality and in general society is skeptical that men can even be bisexual, and that bisexual men only identify as such as a stepping stone to being gay. On that note, I felt bad for Basit - it's obvious that Jonathan has a lot of issues with internalized homophobia and especially disgust with femininity in men, As he went on and on about how he only likes femininity in women and could NEVERRRR be attracted to a feminine masculine person. Only BIG BEEFY BRAWNY BEEFCAKES for him! Which is ironic because Basit is actually very fit and muscular, but Jonathan can't deal with Basit wearing skirts and eyeshadow. Basit was right to call out Jonathan for basically suggesting that he should be with Danny because they're both effeminate. At the same time, Basit picking Jonathan at the match ceremony was stupid. Dealing with dating biases sucks, but you can't guilt trip or lecture or bully someone into being attracted to you, and you should respect yourself enough to know that you deserve better than constantly trying to convince someone to see you that way.

They said something during one of their confessionals about thinking that the experts had matched Jonathan and them up, rather than just going on pure emotion.

Never mind.) Seriously, Kai and Jenna's just-out-of-a-romance-movie "I hate you! *tonsil hockey!*" moment was practically scripted. Even the misting rain felt artificial for effect. (Jenna, get some therapy. Stop chasing the drama if you ever want to be happy.) Amber, honey, run from that hypocrite Nour. You don't need that crap in your life.

Guest July 11, 2019 Share July 11, 2019 Jenna and Kai aren't that deep - they're just turned on by fighting and now it makes them horny they're not a match and pissing off the house by continuing to fuck. The Notebook this isn't. Nour really revealed herself to be a giant asshole this week. Calling Paige an ugly ostrich would be immature for a sixth grader. She's got major narcissism and control issues. I hope Amber and Paige are a match just to spite her. Jonathan is shady with drunkenly kissing Basit and saying they could be a match and then arbitrarily picking Brandon "because he looks like that." Basit, I repeat, please love yourself!

Caseysgirl July 11, 2019 Share July 11, 2019 I feel for Basit but I guess we can’t help who we are attracted to and it’s pretty obvious he isn’t Jonathan’s type. I don’t particularly like Jonathan & feel that picky no Brandon was pretty much out of left field but oh, well...... Kai & Jenna - please stop giving them camera time. That’s what they came for. There are at least. 5 people I have never seen if I’m going to be invested in this I have to know them. I thought Remy was going to be the villain in this show but I rather listen me him (at this juncture). Noir went from Indian princess to thug in one episode. 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13793-are-you-the-one-general-discussion/page/10/#findComment-5438570
Giuseppe July 13, 2019 Share July 13, 2019 I continue to think Jonathan is the cutest guy in the house, but he's a little dense. I don't think he understands that a relationship is more than just physical attraction. Justin practically blew him off on their "date" last episode, but this episode Jonathan can't get the hint that Justin just isn't that into him. So now he's jumped to Brandon, the other hot muscular guy in the house, despite barely ever talking to him (that we've seen). Not saying Basit is his perfect match, either. I fully understand Jonathan's and Brandon's position that Basit is great to connect with, but their persona is not what either of them are attracted to. I understand Basit's frustration, but they're acting almost the same about Jonathan as Jonathan was acting about Justin. Anyway, I'm sick of Kai and Jenna. All this angst, jeez. If they have a genuine connection, then fuck the show and be together! If they're just upset because they aren't the show's "perfect match" and they don't wanna lose the million dollars, then be together and just pick other people at the truth booth or beam ceremony and hope for the best. I feel like these kids are letting the show rules dictate their feelings. Is there some rule that says that they have to BE with their match even if they like someone else? 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13793-are-you-the-one-general-discussion/page/10/#findComment-5442382

Jonathan's behavior is pretty typical of standard dating hypocrisy. If someone you're not attracted to won't stop pursuing you, it's "They're pressuring me and making me uncomfortable! Why won't they just respect that they're not my type?" But then as soon as you are the one attracted to someone who obviously isn't into you, it's "They're leading me on! Why can't they see I'm what's best for them?!" Clearly Jenna and Kai didn't watch last season when everyone sat with their perfect match at the final ceremony and then went back to the house and celebrated by having sex with whoever they'd been dating the whole time LOL. I think Jenna was just using the algorithm as an excuse to break up because she knows that they aren't good for each other and won't last, but Kai's very dramatic resistance gets her motor running and is sucking her back in.

Dmarie019 July 17, 2019 Share July 17, 2019 On 7/4/2019 at 11:39 AM, SnarkEnthusiast said: On that note, I felt bad for Basit - it's obvious that Jonathan has a lot of issues with internalized homophobia and especially disgust with femininity in men, As he went on and on about how he only likes femininity in women and could NEVERRRR be attracted to a feminine masculine person. Only BIG BEEFY BRAWNY BEEFCAKES for him! Which is ironic because Basit is actually very fit and muscular, but Jonathan can't deal with Basit wearing skirts and eyeshadow. Basit was right to call out Jonathan for basically suggesting that he should be with Danny because they're both effeminate. At the same time, Basit picking Jonathan at the match ceremony was stupid. Dealing with dating biases sucks, but you can't guilt trip or lecture or bully someone into being attracted to you, and you should respect yourself enough to know that you deserve better than constantly trying to convince someone to see you that way. But isn't it ok that Basit isn't Jonathan's type? I don't think people have to go around feeling bad about themselves because they aren't attracted to certain people. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13793-are-you-the-one-general-discussion/page/10/#findComment-5453048
