I agree about Morag. Keep telling people that they aren't your type and they aren't going to want you to see them naked. | |||

I agree about Morag. Keep telling people that they aren't your type and they aren't going to want you to see them naked. "I can't believe you've never had a thread reach 175! Franky is so petulant! He resented her asking him to do anything. I feel a bit sad that she feels getting him to do something as basic as pull his weight, and doing it testily, is a success. | |||

"I was watching tonight thinking that this show is showing how a lot of relationships actually are. I think Franky is frighteningly insecure and could do with allowing himself to let his guard down and admitting that he might not be able to do something" I worry about his insecurity. I was on the wrong end of that sort of insecurity when I was younger. | |||

"Ah just saw the post that it is not legally binding, so ignore my previous post. " . I think what you said still applies though. It calls what they commit to "marriage," they talk about love, commitment, loyalty etc. The new format isn't my kind of shoe either but I enjoyed the previous series' and I'm invested in this one now. I doubt I'll watch any further series but you never know | |||

The previous UK shows concentrated on each couple as an individual unit, meeting with the experts and living in a neutral space.

"It's not really my kind of TV. But it seems to fly in the face of what marriage is supposed to be about. 2 people growing together and making a free and open choice to commit to support and love and provide life long friendship to one another. Given marriage is also a contractual commitment in law it seems weird that this show allows people to form that contract with little or no prior knowledge of who they are meeting. Also if a few years down the line it turns out one of the contestants is abusive or worse, will the shows panel of filters be liable? Each to there own but not for me. " I think initially it was about matching people scientifically (well you know) through detailed questionnaires into all aspects of their life.. And then seeing if 'your perfect partner' came into your life what would happen | |||

"It is isn't it. I found myself thinking "for god's sake get on with it!" On Thursday.
Relationship wise it all seemed very much like how my group of friends were when I was about 18.
The men all saying that Megan was the woman none of them would marry was brutal and wholly unnecessary in my opinion as was the dramatic revelation by the blonde whose name I can never remember | |||

"Marilyse and Luke are putting themselves in the frame for strife and heartache. " Harsh words coming up, take cover 
Luke is one of those men who will be wondering why "nice guys" get walked all over. He's changed himself into someone his 'wife" has told him she wants and when she *still* doesn't want him he keeps on trying to be that person. Public declarations of love and telling her he might not be the man she wants but he's the man she deserves, what kind of passive aggressive rubbish is that? It's basically saying I know you're not really interested but you need me for your own good. Those "experts" have encouraged him and he honestly believes he's found himself again. He's deluded the poor chap but I agree he is putting himself on the frame.
Marilyse isn't the gentle soul she makes herself out to be. She's as hard as nails I reckon and Franky with his very delicate ego is going to come off worst.
And that, is why people should never ask me for relationship advice

"Thankfully Amy cut through that at the dinner party and explained it to her, and I agree, why bring something up from the past at that stage. Also, she needs to drink a little less, at these dinner-parties and think a little more. Her outburst of defensiveness really hurt Luke, but then, he is too dumb to realise he is being played by her, so perhaps it was a red flag that he could Actually see!! | |||

"This is a Philppa Gregory (the historical novelist) quote When a woman thinks her husband is a fool, her marriage is over. They may part in one year or ten; they may live together until death. But if she thinks he is a fool, she will not love him again. " Doh! I actually meant Philippa Perry! But the Gregory quote is good too. I'm just settling down for tonight's episode. We're almost at the end. I must resist getting into the Australian version starting next week - it's even longer than this series. | |||

"Well... I hope Marilyse never has cause to regret her decision and that they really are soulmates, for now at least. I have concluded that Franky is rather boring. What is it with all the shots of their shoes? Tune in tomorrow for the Amy and Josh decision..." He does bang on rather . | |||
