MAFS Recap: Third Week’s A Charm

March 20, 2021 by tamaratattles 11 Comments

MAFS RecapOn this week’s MAFS recap we finally get the couples a therapist. Not Pastor Cal who has been less than helpful this season, but with someone who I hope has some sort of psychology degree. If she can prescribe some sort of medication for Chris, that’s all the better. What Chris needs is for Paige to have male family member come put a foot up his ass.

Virgina & Erik

I have been really anxious about my loss of password clue today. So of course the first conversations in about sharing passwords. My anxiety was so bad today that I thought I might need to go to urgent care for some Xanax. But the thought of going to a place full of sick people just made me more anxious. So  I did three Sudokus, and a crossword puzzle to distract myself and that worked enough for me to be ready to recap. Back on topic I think Virginia is an idiot for offering her passwords to Erik. It will just give Erik more things to be jealous of. See ? They are arguing about it already.

Dr. Coles is happy with how things are going with these two. They seem to be doing the best of all the couples. They do both seem to have different political beliefs. Virginia is into social issues and he is more concerned with other political and military topics. This is a big problem for both of them. To me this is an age issue. Sometimes political beliefs evolve with age. Also political issues are different over time. So the time you begin to start forming political views, and the events in the forefront of the news during those years impacts your political beliefs. Also, Erik wants babies, ASAP and if Virginia doesn’t want kids, that is his dealbreaker.

Later, they do a five minute exercise where Erik says he has been cheated on in every relationship. It is a fear. That explains a lot. They really open up to each other. Virginia explains that her parents fought over visitation and custody and she doesn’t want to put a child through that. The next night, Virginia covers their bed with rose petals and snacks for a romantic evening. Erik was thrilled.

MAFS RecapBriana & Vincent

These two are the first to meet with Dr. Coles. Apparently, we are going to rehash their arguments when Briana crosses the line with her “teasing.” Then, they talk about the salsa classes and that really seemed to embarrass Vincent as well. But somehow it’s Vincent’s fault for having a bad attitude. He did at salsa dancing lessons to a degree. But, Briana needs to bring it down a notch. Why do I keep expecting these experts to offer some meaningful contributions? I should know better by now.

Later these two play a weird game mostly about eating weird stuff.

Paige & And The POS

I cannot believe we are still doing this. It’s been two days since they decided to “reset” and the POS hasn’t spoken to her since. Because, he is a horrible person. He’s not taking her calls. He does seem to love to show up for therapy session though. And he shows up for this one. Chris plays on his phone as they sit in silence waiting for Dr. Coles. She tell Chris that she feels like he is a completely different person than the person they met at his audition. Paige talks about her high expectations and her huge disappointments. Dr. Coles wonders just like the rest of us, why is she still there. Paige says she needs more contact. Chris says his heart is just not in it. Paige is pissed again. This is all just nonsense.

After the shrink leaves, Paige tries to set a schedule with a person who is just a lump on the couch. He wants to watch action TV shows and play basketball. She wants to play cards, he does not. Did he just suggest Bible study? I can’t with this asshole. And yet, he shows up with some chicken for Bible study with Paige. Chris never wants to say the blessing. He also has nothing to contribute to Bible study. But when he does start babbling, she is literally taken notes. THEN HE SAYS HE BOUGHT THE BABY MAMA A BRAND NEW MERCEDES! I thought he was going to admit that there was no baby. I’m not sure I believe this story. Or anything that comes out of his mouth.

Clara & Ryan

The experts sent a fishbowl of questions to all the couples. Lots of them are about sex. I’m starting to think Ryan is a virgin. Oh Clara has been in a long term relationship where they rarely had sex before. This must make her a bit insecure that the problem is her. But, it’s clearly Ryan. I’m sticking to my virgin theory. Dr. Coles makes a visit to get to the bottom of this. Ryan says he just wants to build a strong foundation before having intercourse. Dr. Coles wants to speak to Clara privately. She says they do everything up to the point of intercourse. So what is the difference? Then Dr. Coles wonders aloud if Ryan is a virgin. Clara doesn’t think so.

Clara says she had never had a sexual relationship where the sex was a meaningful part of a relationship. She seems to put no particular value on sex and Ryan has a very significant value on sexual intimacy. It is very strange that Clara has no emotional attachment to sex. Right? Also, she is crying in this discussion.

MAFS RecapHaley & Jacob

These two talk about Haley spending all night with Paige. Who does that when they are newly married? Also, I am surprised that these two had sex. Jacob feels like Haley did it in the first week out of obligation. Now she doesn’t let him even touch her. Haley says that she just doesn’t connect with Jacob. Haley feels like she is doing all the work. She is totally out of this marriage as much as she claims she is trying. The therapist wants them to kiss good morning and good night.

Dr. Coles makes a second visit to Haley. She is worried that Haley may have checked out. She went back to Haley’s questionnaire.  One of the questions asked how picky she was when picking a partner. She said very picky. She went on to say that she often goes on to pick a man apart before she even gets to know him. They go back to sleeping in the same bed. She refused any touch or the prescribed good night kiss.

    Thank you for the recap TT.
    Paige is sad. There is no one in her life to kick her in the butt for being so stupid.
    Her dad, mom, sisters or friends should definitely smack her in the face “ snap out of it” , like the oldCher movie. Where is her self-esteem? Do they get paid more for being on the show for a long time or is it a set fee? Maybe Paige stays because she earns more money that way…
    I hope Briana and her husband take the time to work out their differences. They seem like decent people with a chance of happiness together.

    It’s hard to predict with Erik and his wife. Good for her for sharing her childhood experiences. It’s promising sign.

    Haley needs to stop wasting time—again are they paid more the longer they stay? I see no other reason for her to be there.

    Ryan is either a virgin or he’s very insecure about his ability to perform. Maybe he’s embarrassed by his body parts.

    ALL of these people are fucking stupid!

    WHO would get married that fast? Based on previous seasons, WHO would get married to ANYONE these “matchmakers” put together anyway?

    Only STUPID people.

    I cannot watch!

    Anyone else wondering if Ryan might be gay? He’s reminding me of Luke Cuccurullo (sp?) who performed very reluctantly in bed and put it all on Kate. Clara is confused because they’re doing everything else sexually but not fucking. I would be confused too. That’s what makes me suspicious. As Micky Donovan said a mouth is just a mouth. So Ryan might be okay with Clara for that but not the hide the sausage stuff if he’s gay.
    I was encouraged there were some scenes in which Virginia wasn’t drinking. Here’s another thing I do not understand about how the “experts ” match people. Seems common sense that there are some major topics people have to be compatible with for a successful relationship: age, money, religion, children, lifestyle (city vs rural, homebody vs party animal), politics, sexual appetite. If two people have a major disconnect in one or more of these areas it’s going to be tricky to make a relationship work long term. With all the applicants they get, they can’t put people together who both want children, for example? That’s a big deal. Why put a guy who definitely wants a family together with a chick who maybe doesn’t? The “experts ” suck.
    What a disappointment that Coles didn’t call Chris out for being a narcissist and Paige out for enabling Chris’s bad behavior. Look up “useless”in the dictionary and you’ll see a picture of the “experts”. Chris lies about EVERYTHING so I don’t believe the Mercedes for Mercedes story. There’s no baby. There’s no Mercedes (the car. Not the girlfriend).
    It is the worst low MAFS has sunk to, keeping these two on.

      I don’t think he is gay. I think he is a virgin. He’s fairly religious and in churches where people are supposed to be virgins until marriage, there is a whole lot of “everything but intercourse” going on. Sometime those people think anal doesn’t count as sex either. Even with all of that I still find Clara’s position that “sex is meaningless” much more unsettling.

        Yes, I was shocked to hear she’s NEVER had sex that was related to emotion. Certainly not every sexual encounter needs to be love-based but it was weird to hear her say sex is meaningless. Sex can just be sex but in a serious relationship I personally would expect it to be more.
        Yes, I see your point about the religious views. A likely explanation for what’s happening.

    This show cannot be real. What is wrong with Paige? It’s sad. Chris is disgusting and a POS. All the others are just as boring and bad. This show has deteriorated but yet, they must all go into it for the $….

    Great recap! Honest question: is Paige not all there in the head? There is no way she can be that dumb, right? Why would you even want to work it out with him?
    Virginia’s shaky voice and slurred words—even when sober worry me. Is she drunk at a tissue level? I agree fully that political views evolve as we age and she is just a bit immature or too young for him.

    Thank you for the recap TT. Sorry you have been suffering, I have been hiding in my shell a lot recently, but then you share and I remember I am not alone in any way while being able to talk here.💛
    I am checked out of what used to be one of my favorite shows.
    I have said before, it’s crossed into winning against 8,000 applicants, to win a spot, hoping to be a star, on a reality show.
    Wish you a good day everyone.

    You can talk about it here, or in any open forum. It is getting rather insane. I can’t post about it without getting spoilers because it is the episode BEFORE the last one we watched. Let’s just say I get why Lizzie was brought back for a second chance.
