Married At First Sight: Move-Ins

February 8, 2018 by tamaratattles 8 Comments

 

Ryan & Jaclin

Jaclin loves Ryan’s apartment that he shares with a roommate. Ryan wants to find a neutral place for them to start a life together. They both make around $60 -$70K a year. They both are wanting to build their savings.

The first place they look at is ridiculously stupid. It is a three bedroom that is all chopped up and has a crappy kitchen and the toilet and sink and bathtub are in two different rooms. And it’s $2,500 and it took them an hour to find a parking space. It’s the worst apartment ever. The second apartment is a lot nicer. There is parking. The views are pretty. It’s two bedrooms, two baths and $2,400. Clearly, they showed them the first one to make the second one look like a deal.

Jaclin has a breakdown moving when she has to go through boxes that she hasn’t opened since her ex died. She tells herself that she wants to make this work so she has to get it together. Ryan doesn’t seem to be very good at supporting her. Ryan tells her that he feels like she is going backwards in their relationship. He tells her that she doesn’t seem like she is over her ex. His real issue is that he feels like he is going to be constantly compared to her ex. I understand that fear, but he is sharing it in an aggressive manner.

Jon & Molly

Molly is worried about closet space. She does approve of his mature apartment, right up to the ginormous cat house. I would not date a man with a cat. Molly has a million shoes. I just threw away all of my shoes except for three pairs. I will probably toss one of the remaining pair as soon as the replacements are broken in.

Jon is unemployed. Molly currently pays $700 a month. She makes around $55K  he is making ZERO. But was making around $70K. They find a gorgeous apartment that is a furnished one bedroom for $2,100. I hope Molly can pay for that. Honestly, I think the show pays for the apartments for the two months and then if they stay together they have to pay the remaining months or they have the option to move out. That said, their plans are always to stay married at this point so the generally try to choose something they can maintain longterm.

Molly is happier with Jon back at home and now realizes that vacation Jon is a big goofy kid but real life Jon is more serious. Ah, a spark of hope!

Jephte & Shawniece

Shawniece has two pairs of Loubs. What does she do for a living again? Oh she lives at home and doesn’t pay rent or utilities. So the will have to stay at his house while they look for a place. Jephte’s apartment looks like a clothes bomb went off.

These two want to pay no more that a thousand dollars a month each. Shawniece is saving for her own salon. Shawniece budgets, Jephte has no financial skills. Jephte is sleeping on the floor in the living room while she sleeps in the king sized bed. This is just ridiculous and insulting. They find a really pretty furnished apartment but it is 3K a month. Next they see a cute house for $1,500 that they really like, but the commutes are a lot longer. We still don’t know what they make, and I have no idea what Shawniece even does. Oh yeah, she is a hair dresser.

Shawniece talks to her mother and tells her that she is not happy with Jephte ignoring her. Her mother tells her she needs to give him time. Then she hears that Jephte is sleeping on the floor, and won’t even hold her hand. Shawniece cries and says she doesn’t want to do it anymore.

She goes home and talks to Jephte. She cries and tells him that she is tired of feeling like she is not wanted and it is the worst feeling in the world. Jephte is unable to say a single word. I think he wants her to leave.

Ohhh… coming up this season, they exchange phones and it looks like that was when Jephte left. Jephte has said they should not be together on two separate upcoming occasions.

    I could be wrong but I just don’t see it for Jephte & Shawniece. I understand taking things slow and not really knowing her but this dude is taking it to the extreme. He’s sleeping on the damn floor and she can’t even hug him ? really dude? Ryan is very headstrong and is very firm with his beliefs and opinions , I also really like Jaclin and can tell this experience is hard for her. I feel optimistic about Jon and Molly. I do wonder if they really move out of their apartments and houses for real or do they just pack a couple of things to make it seem that way. While they do move out for 2 months, I’m sure they still have their old places in case they divorce.

      Production pays for the two months in the new place, they keep their old place except for probably Jon because he has lost his job. the if they stay together, they stay in the new place and or move into one of their old places based on when they can give notice and suck. They still have stuff in their old place usually. sometimes someone goes back to their old place mad for a day or a week or two… or until decision day.

    Unless production told her to, which is most likely, I don’t understand why Jaclyn was even going through those boxes of old things in her basement or wherever. She obviously hadn’t looked at those things for months. All she had to do to move into the new place is just get whatever clothes and personal things she needed for the next couple of months.. As Tamara said, the couples don’t usually completely move out of their old places when they move into a new place together. But production probably told her to go through those boxes to stir up old feelings in her.

    I felt a little more hope for Molly and Jon after this episode, but l have basically no hope for Shawniece and Jephte.

    What kind of “experts” match these folks up? Why the hell did Jephte even apply to this show? Much less agree to be on it? Did one of his buddies sign him up? Does he want to be a celebrity? Does he think it’s going to help him get the ladies?

    Inquiring minds want to know! At least I do. Any ideas on this anyone?

      I’ve wondered why Jephte applied. He doesn’t seem like he wants a girlfriend, much less a wife.

    I love this show! I’m still clueless who signs up then follows through with this “social experiment”…marriage…reality TV show!?

    I watched the pre show to the show this week where they interview one of participants, review previous episodes and talk about their thoughts etc. Jephte was the guest. He seemed so open, respectful, he referred to his wife in a kind, generous and insightful manner. I came away before watching the episode that I was going to see something click between him and Shawneice.

    I did see a flicker of what I saw pre show on the episode but fleeting. I feel for Shawneice! She seems like a highly secure and self motivated young lady only wanting a well matched partner to share her life. We all have insecurities which her husband seemed to recognize and respond in a way to either push her away or keep her in check.

    I will never understand why he told her to not get in the water and touch the bottom. Then so callous…”I told you not to!” I’ve met real strangers on vacations that I’ve helped or they’ve helped me with anything from sunscreen to Montazuma’s revenge! Bluck! Who does that?

    The way that Jephte carried his wife from the water to the lounge chair when they were on their honeymoon showed how he really had no feelings for his wife. He carried her like i carry heavy boxes of crap headed for the dumpster. I can’t wait to get to the destination and put it down. Love the show but watching Jephte and Shawneice is sooooo painful.

    I don’t get Jephte at all. He says he can see falling in love with her, then chases her away every single time she gets close. I wonder if he has a girl on the side whom he met after applying for the show but before filming started. His actions seem like he wants it clear to anyone watching that he isn’t getting physical with Shawniece. I also wanted to smack Shawniece’s mother, when she didn’t comfort her daughter in any way over their lunch meeting. If my daughter was feeling that way, I’d give her a huge hug and tell her how beautiful, amazing, smart, talented, kind, etc. she is. Her mom didn’t say or do anything encouraging.

    I like Molly and John together. I love that he has a cat and is very patient with it. They seem to have a good chance of making it.

    I like Jaclin and Ryan together, too, though I wish Ryan would be more patient with her as she goes through some grief. He seems really intent on making this work, and he tries pretty hard. She seems very open to him.
