The couples stagger to their one-month anniversaries.. for one... possibly two of the couples, the time is zooming by as they cruise happily on the road to love...for others, time is moving at a sloth's pace and the collisions with major roadblocks in their marriages leaves wreckage....

Are you implying that Kate has a drinking problem? 🙂

[humbleopinion]

No...Implying that it is a struggle for the couples whose marriages are in dire straits....

[Crazy Bird Lady]

We'll know soon enough. 

My personal "greatest hope" is that Kate and Puke will 'call it quits' and no longer be part of MAFS!!

[humbleopinion]

Hold your horses...

Betcha it gets cliff hanged....a week...or two......

if it happens at all.......

[aphroditewitch]

Oh look fake tears from Luke on Unfiltered and it looks like Dr. Jessica is going to give him a pass on his behavior. And several of his condescending smiles. And now he needs a break. 

Kristine doesn't seem to be buying it.

Luke is on the hot spot & like any bully, cannot handle it, so he's running.

I need Dr Pepper staring him down and forcing him to answer the tough questions.  Jessica is acting as though he’s the victim in all of this.

Not surprising. Dr. Jessica during her time on the show has displayed internalized misogyny multiple times. 

[Gem 10]

.. Jamie weekly update, unfiltered.  

I think I like Jamie.  She put Puke on the hot seat, but good.  The creep was stammering and stuttering.  He didn’t know how to answer Jamie’s questions she was throwing at him.  He had to take a break, the little pussy.  Plus, he told his Mother everything that was going on.  He is bad news.  Jamie, I like you.🤗. Go get him !

[Gem 10]

O.k., Jamie didn’t press too much anymore with a Puke.  Maybe a Blondie told her to lay off.  They never got to the truth as they didn’t want to distress little Puke anymore.Poor thing.  But stressing Kate was o.k.?

[ECM1231]

My heart is breaking for Kate. She looks so sad.

[gonecrackers]

Luke should've rated himself a ZERO.

[aphroditewitch]

Luke claiming he thought Kate felt better about herself when he has spent weeks putting her down. 

[Soup333]

This is sad to watch. 

[linleyphd]

Luke rated himself a 7.5. I needed a good laugh today.

[ECM1231]

It really is. Kate has no poker face. I wonder what the other couples were thinking seeing her so sad. I truly hope she gets to dump his sorry ass first.

Kate should've laughed & told everyone at the table what he's been saying/doing, instead of rating herself down because he makes her feel like crap.

[ECM1231]

Again with the boozing comment?

[gonecrackers]

Luke is the epitome of a cowardly bully.

[aphroditewitch]

I want to have an eye makeup intervention with Stephanie. She needs warm toned shadows, the cool toned ones she is wearing are making her eyes look harsher. 

[ECM1231]

Wasn't the experiment always 8 weeks? They are 1 month in and the experts are saying they have 3 weeks left. 😕

[LennieBriscoe]

Lying Pukehead! He disliked Kate from her walk down the aisle! "You drink too much," my BFWA!

7.5, also my BFWA.  Maybe 5, if he's lucky,  IYKWIMAITYD!

Puke does not get to cry! He is trying every trick in his small bag of tricks to avoid having to explain himself. Maybe if I cry she will leave me alone. Oh, that didn't work. Maybe if I have to take a break she will forget what she was asking me. Good for Jamie for trying to pick up that line of questioning. And Kristine was looking at him like he was the weasel bully that he is. 

And if Dr Blondie had any sense she would pick up where Dr Pepper left him last time they talked. 

He is just so icky.

I wouldn’t have Blondie if it was for free.  She’s feeling sorry for Luke?  Is she kidding?  The guy couldn’t even give an explanation for what he said to Kate.  He hasn’t a leg to stand on.  Kate is no better for taking this crap even if by contract she has to be with him.  Take some B-12 shots, you need to wake up and smell the coffee already, Kate.  Enough is enough. Ignore him until decision day and have some respect for yourself.

[ECM1231]

Puke gets up early on their 1 month anniversary to hang out with his friends? WTF? Kate is devastated b/c she has feelings for him and wanted to spend time with him. Idk HOW she can have ANY feelings for him after all he has said and done to her.

[EctoGammat]

Good on Kate for calling Luke out on his BS excuse. Dude gets hammered but is oh so concerned about her drinking? Also sounds like the nickname ‘Puke’ is appropriate. He is so condescending to her for no reason. Worst husband award is split between him and Ryan ‘I’ll kill you and your family’ DeNino from S2. RUN, Kate! 

[Soup333]

AJ and Stephanie are cute.

I just don't think Will is into Jasmine.

I was thinking that too but tonight I thought I saw him act a bit warmer toward her. I know he is an introvert so I wonder if he is very uncomfortable around the cameras. He just has such a poker face.

Oh and now Jasmine thinks she is a great wife? She thinks he is a 5. Lol. I just can't get a good read on them.

[Soup333]

My anal self did the math and Will is right. 

7/10 = .7

6.8/9 = .7555

Jasmine is crazy. Will should dump her ass.

Edited February 27, 2019 by Soup333

[ECM1231]

Did Keith take the meal he prepared at the cooking class home? 

[gonecrackers]

Will wasn't a "5" until she heard she was a "6.8".

[aphroditewitch]

Jasmine and Will have so many unnatural sounding conversations.

Will is too guarded and Jasmine is too rigid. I want this marriage to be over so I can be taken out of my misery.

But Jasmine was just being humble - she's actually a 9.5 🤣

Random thoughts:

• The "experts" constantly emphasize that this is a "real" marriage! If it doesn't work out you have to get a DIVORCE! Do everything you can to make it work! Yet they still call it "the experiment"...
• It is downright cruel at this point for the "experts" to encourage Kate to stay with the emotionally abusive Luke.
• Luke is quite possibly the most manipulative person I've seen on the show thus far. Dr. Pepper called it. Evidence from "Unfiltered" where he left the room pretending to cry (or actually crying as your typical sociopath because it was hurting him, not because he hurt someone else). 
• If I hear one more person say "like" I might lose it. 

[Straycat80]

It’s painful to watch Kate and Luke. It’s sad that she has such low self esteem that she can’t see he doesn’t like her and he’s verbally abusive.  I would love to see her bitch slap that smug look off his face when he’s trying to convince her she has a drinking problem (which I doubt she has). 

Jasmine and Will aren’t going to make it either. I have a feeling if she gets fed up with him she’ll won’t be a wimp about it. 

[endure]

OMG Luke says Kate has a bad attitude about their marriage.

[shouldbedancing]

I don't remember seeing someone cry like Kate did on this show. A producer should rip her contract up in front of her and tell her to go home. Puke isn't worth it.

Because two couples are just horrendous.  They are impossible to watch.  It’s torture for the viewers.

[OnTime]

Why are they only married for seven weeks?

Haven't the recent season be married for eight weeks?

[EctoGammat]

Previews show AJ and Stephanie getting into an argument while driving like it spells doom for them. As someone from the area... driving on Philly roads/highways will make anyone get into an argument lol

And that her attitude is unproductive. Repulsed and dead inside must be an endearment to this jerk. 

Luke is so full of shit I can’t stand it. Of course he had to take a break because the conversation was upsetting to him. That gets him off the hot seat and shifts sympathy to his feelings instead of his actions. Then he had no idea why Kate rated herself so low and then said her attitude about their marriage was unproductive after he completely ignored their anniversary. Seriously, fuck that guy. 

I pity Kate for her feelings of attachment to this lowly shithead. She needs therapy.

He is such a fucking gaslighter. I hate him. I am so sorry that they just skipped over the whole episode of Luke’s drinking binge that left him too sick to come home (at least Kate was spared cleaning up after him). 

I realized when one of the other husbands said he wanted to fall in love with his wife that this is one of Luke’s major problems. He doesn’t want to fall in love with Kate. He doesn’t want the marriage to work. He isn’t even trying - in fact he’s trying to make it as awful as possible. When he was sitting there on the anniversary evening dinner blathering on about capers, I just wanted to smack him. I was really hoping he would come home to find Kate gone.

He really is a villain.

I don’t think Jasmine has the personality a guy likes. She walks around criticizing things, like where he grew up, all money goes to her, thinks she is better than him.  It seems they are in competition.  No sex after a month.  I don’t think it’s there for them.
