And Loren adds disgusting, childish table manners to his many charms.

Oh, okay, Bozo had broken things off 2 months prior AND it sounded like he played pro basketball. Those two facts do not scream "I love you and want to marry you".

I feel as though Americans desperate for their 15 minutes of fame, are using this platform out of desperation. Yes, we seen some good matches over the years, but not enough to justify being on tv.

If parents, elders, or important others were also involved with the initial selecting, interviewing (or weeding out) potential mates to match their person, THAT might be worth watching.

I just feel present cast lie about too many things.

By the way, I confess that I fast forward through Brian's/Ingrid's part.l because he gives me such a big ick response. I do not trust him at all!

I watched the episode again, and intentionally watched Brian's interaction, re: trying to be romantic. He's not interested in finding passion with Ingrid. He wants her to come to the USA and care for him and cooking/cleaning etc. I believe this was always at the back of his mind, as he's getting much older.

He figures all foreign gals should jump at this opportunity to move to America and get a green card, in exchange for being his 24/7 caretaker.

i feel that there are plenty of age appropriate American women who will give him a shot, so long as they can keep one foot out the door.

Ps: I keep getting this one popup about a virus. Only with this site though... has anyone else gotten an interruption?

Veah is using her ex like an emotional support dog she can't be separated from because she might need him at any moment. She explained to Sonny that the ex can't go home because "You threatened to break up with me!" So if Sonny breaks up with her (which he absolutely should do), Veah wants to be able to rush to the arms of her "friend" instead of dealing with it like a grown woman. She is not well.

Will her ex always have to be in the wings waiting to protect and console her? If she and Sonny get married and have kids, will that guy have to stay close just in case something goes wrong? Will he be like an emergency boyfriend mounted on the wall with "Break glass in case of sad"?

And that ex is no innocent friend. The looks and attitude he gave Sonny said it all.

I get this ALL.THE.TIME just on this site. It takes over the screen with no way to close it down. I have to back arrow back to here, but I don't get back to where I was on the page. I either have to scroll up a lot or I am on the Browse Topics window. It drives me CRAZY. Trust me, I will NEVER agree to whatever virus protection site this advertises. NEVER!!!

Never seen any such thing on this site, ever. But then again, I do use Firefox as my browser with an ad blocker extension.

Thank you!! Yes, you're describing all the nonsense I've had to put up with the last couple of weeks. I always use my phone for Primetimer, but it never used to be an issue. Once the PT site was revamped, I got nonstop popup ads.

I too, have no interest in responding to the  "Beware of virus drama". I hope no one is actually buying their product.

I find Veah particularly cruel.  It’s as if she wants to inflict pain in Sunny by using her ex.  Bizarre and sad, imo.

Loren is disgusting....WTF was he eating like that?? I felt so sad when her sister basically told her to suck it up and be grateful she landed a foreigner who accepts her as a trans person. She should have explained that not only does he have "the disease of the whores" , he doesn't have a job and wants to stay in the Philippines. 

Brian is a disgusting sex tourist and shame on her for letting him near her young child, let alone make him hug him for those shitty toys. I am waiting for him to drop the bomb that he wants to stay in Brazil and live.....I am sure his reasoning will be that it is cheaper and less stressful which is so important with his disability. Cause he has to work that into every scenario and situation. Guessing he drops the bomb about how many wives after she gives it up. 

Magda is no great beauty and it seems like she may have some issues----23 and that damn eager to play house? Her mom seemed to almost be rolling her eyes, like oh god here we go again! Joey is a d-bag arrogant ass and he ABSOLUTELY was doing his best to miss that flight. 

Vanya is a stage 5 clinger. That meeting with his friends was so cringe.....rather than just have a fun night out, she started grilling them. WTF were they supposed to say? I am sure the one said his ex was like her as a way of a compliment as in, you are his type ! No idea what he told her over text or Skype calls, but I have a feeling for him it was just a fun flirtation, he never expected her to actually show up. Cause seriously who flies half way around the world for someone that has not made a commitment after a few short months of texting?? I think he was very respectful and kind and she could have had a fun trip with him as a tour guide. But she kept pushing and pushing and pushing. I agree with what others said in live chat, if a guy is into you, he knows. He doesn't need time to see if feelings develop. He was just being kind and letting her down easy. He could have been a creep and banged her the first night.
