I just want Chris off my TV. I feel like every time the camera is on him and he gets any kind of attention, his ego grows. For someone who's an "expert" on marriage, Erik is very inflexible.I bet Haley has a mini-calendar in her nightstand counting down the days until she can file for divorce. Probably why the first one didn't work out Right? I said the same thing to my husband. You’d think Erik would’ve learned that compromise is essential!

Yes Chris... the reason your relationship isn't working is because y'all haven't put God first... It has nothing to do with you putting your dingdong in someone while also claiming you're ready to marry a stranger and being interviewed for it.

I get that Jake doesn't seem like the best catch ever but I remember the first season with Jamie and Doug and at the beginning she was like repulsed by him and now they're happy, in love, and have two kids.

The only one I give any hope for is Vinny and Brianna.

Anyone watch tonight? My take always: Brianna and Vincent: dr. Viviana hit the nail on the head. He was trying to impress her and didn’t want to look silly. They were pretty cute tonight. Virginia and Erik: after their timer talk, I see why he doesn’t like her having guy friends. But he talks so much about being in that she has her views, but he’s very my way or the highway on things. Haley & Jake: she isn’t willing to let go and try. Clara & Ryan: it annoys me when she’s talking and he always responds with sure. Lol. No words for Chris and Paige! Yes to all. Erik is SO uncompromising. I feel like Virginia will stick it out because she wants it so badly, but I'm not surprised his first marriage didn't work. I think if Haley was about 5 years older, it might have worked out. I just get a strong sense that the lack of maturity and feeling like she has to settle down is part of why she's not willing to put in the efforts and sacrifices that she needs to in order to give it an honest try. Chris is just a dick. I can't even stand to look at him, he just annoys the shit out of me.

Big wow to Erik. Why is he so obsessive with Virginia's dog and having it trained more? And the things he said to Virginia...

I really liked Paige's brother. He's been the most insightful "extra" person that's been on.

Hayley and 80s robot man are painful to watch. They obviously don't like each other but just don't want to pay to split early.

I haven't watched the last few episodes. I need to borrow someone's cable login.
But from what I've read on Reddit, Erik seems to like to say "if you don't like it you can leave"/"if you don't agree then I'm done". Which is really not a great way to go about communicating and attempting compromise.

He paints himself as a marriage expert and that he knows better than her about everything. And he's so smug about it too, it's so annoying.

I think Erik is in competition with Chris to see who can be the bigger dick. I like him less and less every episode. I hope Virginia dumps his ass.

I feel like Erik really demeaned Virginia in this episode. He was so condescending and not even listening to her. She’s right, she’s compromised and he isn’t willing. She’s clearly having anxiety issues and he continued to talk down to her.
I feel like Vincent was trying to give some decent advice, but I doubt Erik takes it!
The dog dad stuff made me lol.

I'm watching last nights now and this season has really left a bad taste in regards to the experts and their matches.
Chris and Paige-how did they not see that he is a narcissist and yet you're pairing him with a kind soul with so many hopes and dreams. Gross. This is going to play on her emotions so much, she's already been blaming herself questioning what she did wrong. poor girl.
Virginia and Eric-he is a controlling ass. 'We're married now so you must cancel plans to hang with your husband'. I mean come on dude. So they take a person who is an expert on marriage (Eric) with a free soul like her? like wut. And this whole kid thing is disgusting, she has expressed that she isnt sure she wants kids, she is being honest and yet they are pressing for a 'reason'..she says 'oh i'm scared' and they scoff it off like oh its fine, those are normal feelings, you're gonna be a great Mom' LISTEN TO HER PEOPLE, when it is going to be 'ok' to not want kids.
Hayley and Jacob-they dont even like each other, what terrible match. She is a world traveler who likes to experience new things and he likes his house. It's fake smiles and conversation all around. It is painful to watch.
Ryan and Clara-again, they're ok but they are so on either side of the spectrum when it comes to sex, he can go forever without it and it's almost her number one thing in a relationship. But also, the fact that she is getting him off every night?! I mean, no wonder he is saying that he is fine with where they're at. So guy gets a blowie/handy every night, she does it cause she is attracted and hopes that its going the next level and he finishes and then rolls over. weeks and weeks of that?
Vincent and Briana- I think they're doing ok, they're super cute and their self reflection is good.

I agree with all of that vino. I actually have found this season hard to watch or get excited for because of everything you said. Honestly H and I skipped over and deleted a few of the episodes instead of catching up on all of them because we just didn't care. And obviously didn't even miss anything! Lol

I loved that Pastor Cal called him out on so many things.

There is no way after decision day that Hayley and Jacob ever see each other again, unless they have to see each other in person with their divorce lawyers.

I completely agree vino. If I make plans a week in advance, I'm not going to cancel last second because now my husband wants to hang out with me. And the whole thing with kids. I get he wants kids but they don't seem to be hearing her when she says she's scared paired with the faces she makes while saying it. It's not just normal nerves about having kids, she obviously has a lot of stuff to deal with before really discussing kids.

I thought Briana was just being vain when talking about being scared to be pregnant because it changes your body. But revealing she has high blood pressure changes that. That's dealing more with danger than being vain.

PLUS he is very adamant that she needs to be ok with him going away for work and she just needs to deal cause that isnt changing, wont discuss the feelings etc as it is just fact. BUT then when he is home she needs to be at his beck and call, cancelling plans etc. I'm triggered by that shit, MH is military and is always coming and going weeks and months at a time, we have an identity as a couple and as individuals and if for any reason MH was all 'I'm home pay all attention to me only' we would have lasted all of 5 mins.

Yeah, I’m over this season and everyone’s dysfunctional relationships. It’s not even entertaining at this point. I get mad or sad watching everything play out. Let’s get to decision day and cut our losses already.

Ryan isn't having sex because then they can get an annulment instead of a divorce.

I think Eric would be fine with Virginia going out with her friends if they were chicks and not dudes. He's clearly very insecure.
