Married At First Sight: I Want An Equal Partner

August 15, 2018 by tamaratattles 20 Comments

Danielle needs to give half of her eyebrows to Amber.

Each week, this show gets fewer and fewer views. Are y’all still watching this with me? Also, my DVR keeps cutting off two or three minutes off the end of shows. It’s annoying.

Danielle and Bobby

These two animal lovers seem to be going great. They are fostering dogs together. They have a lot of sex. So far so good. These two live in Fort Worth so Danielle has a 90 minute commute to work. When they have Bobby’s family over for dinner they think it is unbelievable that she commutes so far to work each day. Bobby’s dad says Bobby is totally not worth that commute. Dinner seemed fun with lots of laughter. Danielle’s sister was there too and she totally approves of Bobby.

Danielle says she usually looks for things she doesn’t like in her partners. There is nothing about Bobby that she would change. These two are in a good place and don’t seem to disagree about anything so far.

Amber and Dave

Seriously? These two got in a fight because Amber asked Dave who his celebrity crush was and he said Jessica Biel. Amber was pissed because she doesn’t look anything like Jessica Biel. WTF? Amber is worried because Dave prefers brunettes. If it is that big of a deal, go back to your natural color and lose the horrific blond dye job. Also, stop plucking the hell out of your eyebrows.

Dr. Pepper comes to help them work through their Jesssica Biel issue. Unbelievable. Dr. Pepper points out they are having a lot of sex. Dr. Pepper basically tells Amber to get over herself. They were not matched based on looks but more important things.

Amber has her best friend and her husband over for dinner. Amber’s best friend is very dominate over her husband. She’s really weird and a potential problem for this marriage. The next night they talk about dinner with Amber’s friends. Dave says his friends are very welcoming. Dave says that he would never want to be in a relationship with the dynamic her friends have. Dave says that he wants to introduce her to some of his friends. She is really hesitant about it. She tells Dave she doesn’t feel like she needs any new friends.

Amber does go with Dave to meet two other couples for a BBQ. When the menfolk go out to the grill, Amber tells the stupid blonde/brunette story. Way to lead with your insecurity, Amber. Can you not see you are freaking these two women out? But the two women are very supportive. One of the other wives said her husband’s celebrity crush was Halle Berry and she’s white. That was just perfect. I’m glad she is giving these two women a chance. They can be valuable resources for her to get to know Dave.

Couples Meetup

All three couples meet and hang out for the first time. Dave comes right out and asks how come they could not make it to their honeymoon destination. Tristan just says that originally, Mia was detained but she’s been cleared and they really can’t say any more about it. Bobby asks if her real name is really Mia. It seems like he was joking but actually it not her real name, it’s a nickname.

Mia and Danielle both changed their last names. Amber did not. The guys break into one group and the girls go into another. Mia has her ear on the boys conversation and is upset to hear Tristan breaking down the “I love you, but I am not IN love with you yet” situation.

Back in the couples seating arrangement, Tristan asks the other couples if they “do sex.” Yes Tristan, they do sex, but that is none of your business. Dave and Amber admit to it. Bobby and Danielle refuse to answer. I’m shocked that Tristan and Mia have had sex. That’s news to me.

Mia and Tristan

These two exchange I love yous but Tristan says he is not in love with her yet.  After the dinner Mia started a fight with Tristan over him talking to Dave and Bobby about not being in love with her yet. Tristan told Dave he was still working on rebuilding trust with Mia. Tristan says her arrest issues are like a cloud over their marriage.

Mia is going to Houston to have dinner with his family. His mom is going to grill her about the arrest. Tristan’s mother is shocked that Tristan is telling Mia he loves her. The conversation about the arrest was so edited that I really would not know what she was talking about if I didn’t already know the story. His mother asks her if there is anything else that would effect Tristan that she hasn’t told him. She says she’s told him everything. His mom seems to believe her and feels better about the situation. Tristan would like to eventually move to Houston. Mia really would prefer to live in Dallas.

I got everything but the preview for next week. What’s coming up?

    I haven’t watched this ep yet, but I appreciate the quick recap. I’m behind on everything, these days.

    The preview for next week was the best part. In it, Tristan is very upset and says that one of his buddies told him Mia was still talking to people on a dating app. Tristan is freaking out about that. Mia makes me very uneasy – I don’t think there’s a genuine, honest bone in her body – and her body language with all the twisting around, cringing and tears, reeks of (maybe subconscious) manipulation by making her seem child-like and in need of protection. After Tristan was hit with the whole arrest situation (while they were leaving for their honeymoon!), and her lying through her teeth about it, she’s surprised he’s being cautious? She’s lucky he’s with her at all. She’s a mess and he’s far too nice a guy for her. I hope he gets out fast because I can’t see him being happy with her long-term.

    I was surprised to hear Amber going on about how Dave likes brunettes – with her inch of dark roots clearly showing. Is there something wrong with her? Then she gets upset because he likes Jessica Biehl? Girl!! Any time you ask your partner that question, understand that it’s meaningless – he’s as likely to meet JB as you are to stop being shallow. Her girlfriend of the domineering personality (and very proud of it) was a pain in the neck – what makes someone like that and how do they find men wussy enough to put up with it? I can’t see Dave ever being comfortable with her. He was obviously horrified but didn’t say what he was thinking because Amber thought the woman was fine, just fine. Then, when he wants her to meet his friends and their wives, which is a normal part of most relationships, she obviously isn’t thrilled with the idea and says she already has her friends, why does she need new ones? This woman is clueless and so self-absorbed she doesn’t even see how screwed up her thinking is.

    Danielle and Bobby seem to be doing OK and I liked the visit she had with his family. A good sense of humor is a wonderful thing, especially around a dinner table. Those eyebrows of hers are driving me nuts., but maybe it’s because I have eyebrow envy. Mine are light brown and skimpy, so if she’s going to give any eyebrows to anyone, I think it should be me.

    Love this show, don’t know why more people aren’t watching it. Maybe because it’s tucked away on the Lifetime channel. Thanks for the great recap.

      English Rose, I always like your comments so much!

      Tamara, I hope you keep recapping this. I’m behind on watching, but I want to catch up!

      Why was Amber even matched with anyone?? And why was Mia matched with anyone??

      And I’ve never understood asking your husband or partner who their celebrity crush is. Even worse, two of my friends asked their husbands, “If you weren’t with me, which of my friends would you be with?” Why would you even ask such a thing?? Nothing good can come of that, and if your husband is foolish enough to answer, now you’re just going to feel insecure and jealous whenever your husband is around that friend.

      I just don’t understand people sometimes.

      Kind of off topic but, Jessica and Justin used to come into the bar where I worked. They were both super sweet and attractive (no shock) in person. But, she’s actually quite short. So at least Amber can stop worrying about the tall part;)

      @EnglishRose – I agree with every word you said all day long. (You too SD)

      Mia is a master manipulator and I pegged her child-like behavior from the get go. I had a 51-year-old friend who spoke like a baby when she needed a favor so I’m having flashbacks, lol. Tristan is in for a wild ride. It’s way too early for saying I love you (or maybe it’s just me & Tristan’s mom). They’ve only been married a couple of weeks if that. I can’t see him being happy with her in the long term either. I think for now he’s enjoying having someone to be with and to care for but eventually it’ll become exhausting. I don’t think Mia is mature enough to give emotionally. Also, I was a bit put off by his “do sex” conversation. That was a bit immature so damn, maybe he and Mia are a match.

      I’m so glad Amber’s hair was mentioned. That blond hair is a mess. I’m not sure if those are extensions but they sure look stringy. She’d look so much softer and more refined with darker hair. I think she was going with the blond to attract men – that desperate vibe is there. I don’t mean to trash her looks but I think she’d be so much more attractive with a sleeker haircut and darker hair. That said, Dave is wildly attracted to her so she needs to chill with the insecurity nonsense. She’s going to sabotage this marriage. I also maintain that she could be crazier than Mia. That friend isn’t a good look for Amber at all. Yikes.

      Danielle and Bobby – meh. He seems too rigid but they seem to be doing okay. A 90 minute commute is insane to me and I live in Houston where commutes can be terrible too. They are really invested in one another so that’s good. The real action is with the other 2 couples, lol.

    I’m watching, TT! I’m in a different time zone, plus I sometimes wait 1-2 days before pulling it up on my DVR.

    Amber looks like jessica Simpson. I cannot believe how petty and insecure this girl is. I wonder how many Guyana cheated on her before. She seems like someone with a bad picker.

    I think Danielle and Bobby have a similar look, like siblings. Her eyebrows look like there were recently microbladed. That, or drawn on with a thick Sharpie. They seem really well matched (Danielle and Bobby, not her eyebrows), but kind of innocent and boring.

    Tristan is a sweetie. I can’t figure out how they put him with Mia. There are plenty of religious women in Texas, so why did they have to pick her?

    Love the show. With schedule. Update saved me. Agree w English Rose about Mia’s shady behavior. What continually astounds me is just before Mia N Tristan’s wedding. The. Very Heavy man talk to talk Mia’s dad with Tristan. WTF. Like family didn’t know!

      Yes that conversation was…I dunno…strange. I really think the family knew/knows about her behavior which is why her sister wasn’t on board with the whole marriage thing in the beginning.

      Also, this man to man talk helps explain Mia’s child-like behavior. Her dad was speaking to Tristan as if Mia was 12. She’s clearly displayed to me that she’s not a helpless woman who needs protection although that’s her shtick. Run, Tristan, Run.

    Please keep recapping. Amazingly, I’m on a current episode as I’m usually days behind an airing and just lurk to read post and comments. I’m loving Dave more each episode but Amber is a whackadoodle! I laughed when the girls were listening to her while trying to keep neutral faces. Danielle fits in well with Bobby’s family and they like her. My only thing with Bobby is he seems to have controlling tendencies. Mia, Mia, Mia is still lying, manipulating and I totally distrust her. Run Tristan run. Promo I remember for next week is Tristan gets a wake-up call that Mia is still active on dating apps and he’s extremely hurt and deceived again.

    Thanks English Rose for great insight. What puzzles me is Mia’s father n sister Big talk w Tristan prior to marriage. This is a close family n had to know. Plz. Treating Mia like a fragile virgin for sacrifice

      I wonder if their behavior was because they know she is “emotionally/mentally fragile.” I am sure that one of them had to know about her obsessive behavior with the ex-boyfriend. Might be why her sister was coming on so strong about her getting hurt. Probably know she is two fries short of a happy meal and it may drive her over the bend.

    There are major warning bells going off for me on Mia, I could see Tristan on a spin off, he seems like a genuine guy. Danielle’s eyebrows and lashes bother me, and I’m waiting for something ANYTHING! to throw these two off, because they are getting a bit stale. Amber is insecure, and Dave was pretty great about her friends, which was awkward. Celebrity Crush? Come on, how old are you 13?

      I am online to see if anyone else is bothered by those eyebrows of Danielle. OMG…she must use a lighter color as it is so distracting.

      She needs to get a pro to show and teach her how to do them herself. We can sure tell when she does them and not the makeup artist.

      Just Add a mustache and she would look like Groucho Marx. Someone who loves her must tell her…..I’d want that.

    Love the show and love your recaps!!

    Amber needs to humble herself. Dave seems like he is really invested in this and open and she is just me me me. Who the heck says they don’t want to meet their husbands friends? ugh. You have to meet them all to see who needs to be weeded out! LOL

    I feel badly that Tristan was matched with Mia. What a hot mess of a woman.

    I am crossing my fingers for Bobby and Danielle! Love the family dynamic.

    Hope everyone has a super day!

    I couldn’t wait for the recap because some things (Amber) is so ridiculous.
    Also Dave’s friends said “well your a natural blonde” and she said “yeah” lol.
    Tristan’s mom said she is a prison guard and she knows what happens to pretty girls like Mia in prison.
    I thought YES!! wipe that smug look off her, which she did, lol.

    I’m finally watching the episode and I think the “conflict” between Amber and Dave is staged. They are both smiling while talking to Dr. Pepper. Dave, in fact, is hiding his smile behind his hand. This is total BS!

    After refusing to kiss Tristan on their wedding day Mia had sex with him as soon as she was released from jail. It was her way of manipulating him into staying in the marriage. She is a sneaky little thing and cannot be trusted. I hope Tristan doesn’t give her his banking passwords.

    There are so many bells going off with the Mia/Tristan relationship. She seems to be very manipulative. It’s funny how she wouldn’t kiss him or show any sort of affection and was all about how she didn’t know him when they got married. Then what was it a day later she got caught and was arrested how quickly she slept with him. Sorry but she used that as a way to distract Tristan and he fell for it hook, line and sinker. She seems very deceitful to me, I get there is a lot of editing but her answers always seem to be vague and very measured. Tristan should run. I think he is going to get burned very badly here. Hope I am wrong because he seems like a nice guy.

    Amber is way too insecure. Not sure how well that will go either. Who gets so bent out of shape about a celebrity crush. She is actually a brunette so she could actually just go back to her normal color.

    I have hopes for Danielle and Bobby. They seem to be genuinely putting their best foot forward and make a real cute couple. Her eyebrows drive me crazy but they seem like a good fit for each other.
