Furthermore, Michelle has mentioned at least 3 times, if not more, that she needs to be kinder to HERSELF and give herself a break!

I agree - she acts like she has been doing a lot of self-reflection, and then comes out with saying how she needs to give HERSELF grace! So ridiculous, and sure isn't doing anything to make her look better to the viewers. (Although I do realize that she is definitely being set up to be this season's most hated person. Followed closely by Madison. I don't think anyone takes Karla seriously, so she is more amusing at this point. Except to Juan.)

In a similar vein - I'm tired of hearing reality tv peeps always say they're too much "in my head" - is that slang for self-centered and narcissistic?

I think it's this generation's "overthinking" and in doing so, not being able to just enjoy the moment. I think that you can do that and NOT be narcissistic and self-centered but I think M&M are managing both with flying colors so far this season.

Also - Karla's not mean!

Haha my mom called it "navel gazing" and we were told to knock it off and think of others! 😃

I think she is mean-she tried to punish Juan and ruin his day, but he called her out on it instead, so she ended up ruining her own day rather than his.

I'd call that more "spoiled baby" acting.  She doesn't tell Juan he's a horrible singer, or all the things that make him so very unattractive to her.

I think the most unattractive thing to Karla about Juan is that he is not willing to support and "take care" of her as she had planned. He won't even consider it. He is focused on his business, which I think makes him an unsatisfactory candidate for this show (other than they look great together). He isn't ready to commit to a real relationship and she thinks that all she has to do is show up in all of her Karla-ness and the men will fall at her feet. Maybe for some fun, which is what it seems Juan wants, but not for the long haul. She is way too high maintenance.

David and Michelle are doomed. He was so hurt when she said she was not comfortable sharing a bed with him. After-party guest was frank ...he said you can't go into this marriage experience and pick and choose what you will do,like an a la carte menu. You have to go all in. 

While I agree with that After Party guest for the most part, and Michelle has been awful at times, I will say that if I were genuinely uncomfortable with sharing a bed with my brand new husband who in reality I barely knew, I'd be g--damned if someone is going to force me to share the bed with that person or guilt me into it.

I might have reacted similarly to Madison in my youth but now that I'm older, I really don't care what my husband wears. Clothes are not important to him. He dresses up when the occasion warrants it but on a random day/evening, he is likely in sweatpants and t-shirts or cotton drawstring shorts and a t-shirt. 

Fortunately I like how my husband looks in his around-the-house shorts/sweats clothes, so no complaints in that department. But there was one thing he wore when I first met him, that was just such a turn-off, and that was Birkenstock slide sandals. No they weren't worn with socks, but I still just couldn't, and thankfully he was wiling to stop wearing them.

No thread for new episode?

@kristen111 started one already but anyone can. There's a "Start Topic" button at the top of the page where all the threads are listed. Click that, give it a name and type something in the text box... very similar to a regular post.

I don't think that mods start threads anymore?

Did I do bad?  I tried to give @Elizzikra a break.  Tried my best.

Thanks .. I’m insulted, lol.

Kidding right? I was being serious - it was awesome that you started the thread! It confuses me that mods don’t do it anymore but I think that is the case. And I’m always eager to comment on the new episodes even though I really dislike the housewarming interrogation episodes.

Yes, kidding.  Wasn’t aimed at you of course.  Just thought it’s always you that starts the conversation and tried to help.😀

I accidentally elbowed a guy in the face & immediately checked & made sure he was okay. I would've done the same if I was married to Tom after he hit his head on that lamp. Just laughing? 🙄 "Cultural differences" I guess... Oversold it on the lingerie, huh? She probably should've kept that to herself instead of creating honeymoon expectations to not deliver on. Keep the mystery totally or say maybe something special might make an appearance.

What a moronic thing to say! He forgot about her?! Would he like to hear that?!!! SERIOUSLY!!! THINK BEFORE SPEAKING!!! SO UNNECESSARY TO SAY!!! She doesn't want to ask for things? It should be "natural"? People still think that stupidly?!! Outdated nonsense! Then she should be in a relationship with herself! MORON! PERFECT MATCH! The retaliation was so immature. Could've had a mature convo about what he said, resolved it, & moved past it, but no. It was funny how he called her out & she tried to use some jargon that was not what she did. I would've asked her how that worked out for her? Did she enjoy herself? Juan looked super bald with his hair wet. 😬

think there was a better way for Madison to discuss what she'd like to see. Just pointing out things she didn't like wasn't the best way to go. She could've asked what activities and features he finds attractive in a partner, but she seems to only care about what she wants. He wants to look good for her? When? Just the wedding? Not buying it. Seems like he's moreso: I'm wearing what I want, you're married to me, accept it. 🙄 He looks like a pushover if he didn't say how he wanted to spend the evening with her. Should've asked him if he talked to her about it. Is he collecting issues or is it just a consequence of him being a pushover? I think it's the latter. Same result.

Of course Michelle got off easy on the after show. Didn't have to answer for how she treated her husband. Wasn't asked if she's sabotaging. Wasn't asked if she intends to build a marriage with David & how she's showing that. Given an excuse about wanting a man with a plan. HOW ABOUT ASKING HIM?!!! Acting like she has no control over obtaining that information!!! RIDICULOUS!!!!
