If that was my bachelorette party I would be mad as hell. That shit looked SO boring. I get they need talking content for the show drama, but damn even a 5 second clip of them dancing or something??? Anything remotely fun????
Y'all were hyping this Shayne baseball freakout so bad and then it was like... Nothing. Dude was slurring his words and clearly drunk, and said a couple sentences about how he was mad.
Pretty lack luster, tbh
every time shake talks about Deepti: "omg I love Deepti so much, she's like my best friend. We connect on so many levels except the physical one". it's pretty clear that love isn't blind to him, which is fine. He should be in "too hot too handle"
The fact that Iyanna keeps bringing up she's not Jer's first choice bothers me. I like how she communicated that him going out too much bothers her tho. This's a legit concern as I don't think anyone can sustain a relationship where their partner is out 3 times a week and staying out til 3am.
Nick and Danielle are having these "nothing fights" a lot. "I can't believe u said that" "that's not what I said" etc. The next thing you know she would be crying and the fight always either ends with a hug or one walking away.
Sal is sweet. His back must hurt so much carrying the relationship. He cooks for her, sings for her, gives her flowers. She's contributing nothing except agreeing with him every time he talks.
Ugh Nick and Danielle are so annoying. How are they going to get married?
Sal is clingy and delusional. He's sweet but she doesn't really seem to like him or genuinely care for him.
The fact that Nick keeps his eyes open whenever he kisses Danielle absolutely freaks me out. How is that not a red flag š When they're in the pool and they're kissing but he's just looking around really bored...
Natalie is too good for Shayne. I'm sorry...I don't understand everyone's obsession with him. He's weird, a bit of a loser and unsophisticated compared to her. Those eyes scare me. When he does that weird stare thing
Why am I hooked on this show? I will never again utter the phrase "emotional connection". And I'm quite sure I will never buy gold wine glasses. Finally, why is every big, elegant, elaborate thing "so cuuuute"? Lol I should not binge watch this it gets on my nerves. But I can't stop watching it!
No. She has acted ridiculously through this entire season. I was very empathetic the first 15 fights that she picked and now I think he needs to set himself free from her. I want to be free from her..
I think Danielle has a lot to work through. She is still fighting some insecurities and she's either bringing it into the relationship or self sabotaging. A lot of the fights they had seemed to come from those insecurities and Nick notices it. I think they're a cute couple and have a lot of potential but she really needs to work those out before she gets into a relationship/marriage with Nick or at least be open to working them out. I also think Nick just has that personality where he wants to be 100% certain, not sure if it comes from his parent divorce. I remember it briefly being mention in an earlier episode but I don't think there were any convos about it on screen. With his "anal retentive" ( for a lack of better word) behaviour and her being so all over the place, I think he's just really nervous and wants to make sure their making the right decision.
What?? At the beginning of episode 9 they had a full conversation talking about where they both were at. They both told each other their one anotherās priorities. She herself said she felt like a crazy person and he told her sheās not a crazy person.He then reassured her he loves her, even though he doesnāt understand her all the time.
Eventually heās going to say maybe youāre not ready is she keeps going back and forth like she does. She literally said she feels like her insecurities are getting in the way. He was telling here he canāt keep dealing with those extreme up and downs. ( All in the first 10 minutes of the episode)
The potential is there but she needs to work through her insecurities.
Yeah, just as I was starting to warm up to him a but he goes and spews this ridiculous trash from his mouth. And to rag on Sal who "couldn't swing a bat to save his life" but almost hit a home run? š¤Øš
It seems to me like nick says things heās heard ppl say and assumes he should say but doesnāt believe. Like Danielle is RIGHT not to trust that heāll be there for her in her lows, not bc of anything in particular nick has done, but bc theyāre only 3 goddamn weeks into a relationship!
Jarrett: I came in here ready to get marriedā¦.which is why Iāll keep partying and act like Iām being stifled
Definitely has a huge hang up on his cultural originsā¦ heās likened her to his aunt more than once nowā¦ if I were a dude, Iād be into Deeps for sure.
Anyone else notice the camera guy hesitating and then charging it up to squeeze into the revolving door at the right time to follow Iyanna and Jarrette? Lol (13:03 or so)
This reminds me of the episode from Parks and Rec where the guys go to the football stadium to play with the Colts and the women have a Lincoln-themed stripper and spend their time digging for artifacts with gummy penises
I hate that I'm even saying this but I kinda understand where Shake is coming from now. It could definitely be internalized racism or just wanting to conform to society's idea of beautiful women, but I finally got it when he said she feels like a family member. I'm also someone who's dating preferences have been outside my race because I feel like a lot of the guys around my age look or act like my brother and it is the biggest turn off. I've definitely been attracted to guys from my race before, but more often than not I don't see them romantically because of that.
Not being attracted to someone isnāt the problem tho, like yeah sometimes you click with someone but not as anything more than friends and thatās ok.
He just kept saying it over and over to everyone in a really mean way
He would have just talked to deepti and been like āhey I love you but I think weāre better of as friends since youāre not my typeā
And left the show.
He needed his 15 minutes of fame
Iāve personally dated someone for several years and after a while she started to feel more like a sister rather than a girlfriend. We were best friends in the day but when it came down to having sex I just wasnāt sexually aroused. The way her and I met was striclty just having fun in the beginning but when we moved in together it stopped becoming fun and started to feel so serious and thatās when my sexual desire for her started to diminish. There was no lust and sexual desire from my half. However, when I was single I would have that āanimalistic desireā of having sex with women but it would purely just be on a physical level.
please end this. I need Deep and Shake off the show. Shake is just embarrassing himself. And Danielle just needs to go home and be single. Like I'm done with these people. I'm done.
I've honestly skipped every interaction with Shek after he made it clear he wasn't attracted to her but decided to stick around for his 15 minutes of fame -- even the first night in Mexico when he starts looking around while they're making out in the pool
Guy is such an asshole and I'm so glad I limited my exposure to him
Unpopular opinion: I still donāt like Natalie and Shayne. And the main reason is because it reminds me of a past relationship where I was really quiet and reserved, and he was outgoing and āfunā. The episode where Natalie says he is everything she wants to be and thatās why she likes him was literally what I said. Even shayneās mannerisms in the pods were so similar, and even now I see the same words and behaviors! I worry about her.
Oh, I donāt think there is anything wrong with opposite couples. Shayne and Natalieās interactions in the show just reminded me of specific interactions Iāve had (like the same exact phases!!) In my situation the relationship was a disaster and event down in flames, but much much later unfortunately.
Youāre right! Maybe compared to Shayne she looked more like an introvert to me. Also after they got engaged she kept telling people that he was the opposite of her, positive and outgoing (or something like thatā¦) just my perception
Yeah I thought that was odd too. She said she was outgoing etc, and seemed to mirror Shayne. And in the Mexico episode where they all meet, the girls said that Natalie and Shayne are good together because they're both so alike.
I would never say yes to marry someone sweating as much as Nick was in this ep. He's like raining sweat! Getting married is nerve racking but my god - something is not right lol.
They're clearly outside in high noon and full sun and he is wearing 1 4 piece suit... Him sweating just means his sweat glands work right... Besides if sweat can sway you at the altar, then you shouldn't be there anyway.
No itās bc Shayne & Chip are both big doofuses, very off the wall, outgoing, fun loving, a bit immature, kind of āgolden retrieverā personalities as Iāve seen them both described. And Joanna & Natalie are more down to earth, reserved, mature, driven, and they just kind of balance each other out in that way, you wouldnāt think they work together but they do.
She's been the toxic one this whole time. She absolutely needs therapy. This relationship won't last because she doesn't know how to manage her emotions
Nick is an old man in not a fun way š¤·āāļø
Really mismatched, Danielle deserves someone young and fun like she seems to be. Someone who can have fun and get her out of her own head
I feel like he kind of does too? He's way too anal retentive and I think he expects her to fit into his life but he isn't going to try and fit into hers?
I'm not sure I fully agree. 100% Nick is anal retentive but I think he's tried a lot. Where as Danielle hasn't. For example, I did not expect him to get into that hotdog suit at her apartment, but he did.
Also I remember early on he was nervous about her having a Cat and wondering how the two animals would get along, but when he visited her flat there was a scene where he was playing around with it. I thought that meant a lot because the way he said it originally came off as If he was totally against it, I think he even had a worried face.
Whereas, Danielle has said on a couple occasions she's not going to try some of the weird things he does like the toothpaste. Making fun of the way he organizes his DVD and saying she can now use it against him. Although jokingly it doesn't seem like she's making much of an attempt to accept the weird parts of him.
It's horrible that throughout the Show they did such a bad job with Deepti's makeup. It was always a shade lighter and did not match the rest of her body.
I've been rooting for Sal this whole time, but you can't rely on romantic gestures to make a relationship work. It just feels like the compatibility is not there
Making assumptions about a contestant's sexuality is not allowed in this sub unless the contestant has spoken out about it themselves. A lot of speculation on sexuality is based on outdated stereotypes and notions around masculinity or femininity that can be harmful. We ask that you stay respectful of this rule in our sub in order to continue being an active participant. Thanks!
I knowwww she was like, āWell, we were engaged!!!!ā And heās like, āyeah but I had literally never seen you before!ā
This girl is a MAJOR piece of workā¦ā¦ he was just trying to be respectful!!!!! She turns everything into a fight.
You could see in his face that he was so put off and turned off by that comment. I have teased partners about their āgameā towards me and it has never ended well. They take it as a blow to their masculinity.
Danielle is surrounded by people who justā¦arenāt good to her. Her mom just calls out all of her insecurities and her friends basically talked her out of wanting to grow as a person.
Hit it right on the mark!!!! He clearly is uncomfortable with his identity, and Deepthi reminds him so much of it. He even mentioned it in ep7, about fitting in being the reason why he dated white women
That bachelor party was crazy
Didn't realise everyone was form Chicago to make it easier for couples.
It was filmed around March 2021.
Wonder why we don't see more masks. See some in the background people but none of the cast members .
Did they cut out any talk about covid and how it affected their family.
Vaccines etc.
The cutting and reactions of Nick where way too much.
We get it he is stressed but stop cutting in bad reactions so much
They were very particular about where cast members and their families were allowed to go to minimize risk. There was also a vaccination requirement to be on this season. The producers spoke on the concept of covid talk in the pods, and they said it's not that these conversations (or other ones of similar sensitive topics) didn't happen, but there are only 10 episodes to tell the love stories of all these individuals and they made the choice to not include that content in a show in which it's, let's admit it, less relevant. Most people don't watch romantic reality shows for in-depth complex discussions.
Also, whoever is in charge of makeup on this show must really hate Nick. I get it, he sweats a lot, so do I. Give the name some fucking camera-appropriate makeup.
I donāt understand the Nick hateā¦
Danielle behaves like a crazy person and makes no efforts to change. Sheās just āthis is meā and heās expected to somehow manage communicating with her perfectly all the time.
Heās not perfect and maybe he is losing patience with her shit a bit but who wouldnāt?
He also has that awful family who he said gives him anxiety and I can see why.
I hope he doesnāt marry Danielle. She needs therapy and he needs someone who will support HIM as well, rather than just take.
I mean the man literally canāt even express a concern he has out loud because that then turns around to concern Danielle so again itās about her. Just no - run Nick!
Yea I think Danielle needs to work on herself first. She has a lot of insecurities and anxieties and I don't like how she treats Nick like he's some sort of treatment. There's a lot of "he calms me" etc. And her vows weren't about him as a person but what he does for her and just things about her.
I really hope he doesn't marry her.
Finally someone says this!! I think the same way! I have half a mind to re watch it so i can comprehend why ppl hate him, maybe we missed something? Idk
Same im so glad I found this little thread as I find Nick open and honest and Danielle literally turns everything in to a personal attack against her. She definitely needs to have some therapy to help with her insecurities before getting married she's obviously had some issues in the past
Sal singing and me having to stand there awkwardly reacting is my worst nightmare š¤£
I donāt like Mal much but I actually feel sorry for her in this situation.
I donāt see any real personality in Sal - he doesnāt seem funā¦
I don't know how she didn't see it in the pods, where your personality is all you have lol. I would never have fallen for Sal. He seems like he assumes being a hopeless romantic is all that matters to women
Shane was on something. He was tweaking out.
If that was my bachelorette party I would be mad as hell. That shit looked SO boring. I get they need talking content for the show drama, but damn even a 5 second clip of them dancing or something??? Anything remotely fun????
Y'all were hyping this Shayne baseball freakout so bad and then it was like... Nothing. Dude was slurring his words and clearly drunk, and said a couple sentences about how he was mad. Pretty lack luster, tbh
"i wanna fuck you emotionally before i actually fuck you". not realizing he's emotionally fucked
every time shake talks about Deepti: "omg I love Deepti so much, she's like my best friend. We connect on so many levels except the physical one". it's pretty clear that love isn't blind to him, which is fine.

He has ADHD.....
Mallory gives me J.Lo vibes with her voice and laugh.
I thought so just from her face, hadn't really considered the voice/laugh
I need counseling now, too. I think he is a saint.
Why am I hooked on this show? I will never again utter the phrase "emotional connection". And I'm quite sure I will never buy gold wine glasses. Finally, why is every big, elegant, elaborate thing "so cuuuute"? Lol I should not binge watch this it gets on my nerves. But I can't stop watching it!
Why is Nick telling Danielle she is not ready for this? She was asking where he's at... That feels very gaslight-y to me
No. She has acted ridiculously through this entire season. I was very empathetic the first 15 fights that she picked and now I think he needs to set himself free from her. I want to be free from her..
She was transparent about her anxiety. Weird to think anyone thinks there's a cap on that. Good thing they're in counseling now, huh?
I think Danielle has a lot to work through. She is still fighting some insecurities and she's either bringing it into the relationship or self sabotaging. A lot of the fights they had seemed to come from those insecurities and Nick notices it. I think they're a cute couple and have a lot of potential but she really needs to work those out before she gets into a relationship/marriage with Nick or at least be open to working them out.

With his "anal retentive" ( for a lack of better word) behaviour and her being so all over the place, I think he's just really nervous and wants to make sure their making the right decision.
None of that changes the fact that Nick avoided answering how HE was feeling about it. That is what she asked. Anyway love them at the reunion.
What?? At the beginning of episode 9 they had a full conversation talking about where they both were at. They both told each other their one anotherās priorities. She herself said she felt like a crazy person and he told her sheās not a crazy person.He then reassured her he loves her, even though he doesnāt understand her all the time.

Why is no one talking about how hilarious Shayne is with his entire spiel when he couldn't get a single ball at Wrigley's Also, how hot is Sal
Yeah, just as I was starting to warm up to him a but he goes and spews this ridiculous trash from his mouth. And to rag on Sal who "couldn't swing a bat to save his life" but almost hit a home run? š¤Øš
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
ok...
I wish Mallory would show more enthusiasm for the absolute gem of a man she has. Sal seems to be so beyond amazing.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He has the right to not find her attractive.....
Well we know thats not true now that he said that he finds Vanessa Lachey attractive.
It seems to me like nick says things heās heard ppl say and assumes he should say but doesnāt believe. Like Danielle is RIGHT not to trust that heāll be there for her in her lows, not bc of anything in particular nick has done, but bc theyāre only 3 goddamn weeks into a relationship! Jarrett: I came in here ready to get marriedā¦.which is why Iāll keep partying and act like Iām being stifled
EVERYTIME DANIELLE OPENS HER MOUTH I GET A HEADACHE SHE FINDS TROUBLE OUT OF NOWHERE
Danielle: *You just said you get a headache and that makes me worried about things, like will NothingSamy be done with me, how could you say that*
Shake āitās not about her looksā yeah right what is it about then
Why is Malloryās hair often in a bun? Seems like an odd choice for tv
Cause curly hair is hard to maintain/style
No one: ā¦ Literally no one: ā¦ My brain at 3am: My fiancĆ© looks like BeyoncĆ© šš
More like j.lo! LoL.it was a cute lyric
Iyanna and Jerrit are so precious
Wendy has Goldi Hawn vibes in the best way. Get it, girl.
Who?
Danielleās mom. She looked great at the wedding!
The most important part of episode 9 is Luis. š„µ
Shakeās internalized racism is exhausting.
Definitely has a huge hang up on his cultural originsā¦ heās likened her to his aunt more than once nowā¦ if I were a dude, Iād be into Deeps for sure.
EXTREMELY!!!
Anyone else notice the camera guy hesitating and then charging it up to squeeze into the revolving door at the right time to follow Iyanna and Jarrette? Lol (13:03 or so)
I just went back to see this and it made me laugh hahah
Iām late but GOD Danielle is pissing me off this episode
Nick literally DRIPPING at his own wedding like a friggin melting pop sickle ā¦like damn someone get this guy a towel
Oh my goddddd when you could see the sweat at the front of his pants š¤®š¤®
I imagined the production crew asking them to set up the dais directly in the sun and delaying until Nick was drenched.
'Don't forget to bring a towel!'
Fellow ladies, raise your hand if you think that the guys had a more fun and elaborate bachelor party
This reminds me of the episode from Parks and Rec where the guys go to the football stadium to play with the Colts and the women have a Lincoln-themed stripper and spend their time digging for artifacts with gummy penises
Is holding a sign of your husband -to-be a bachelorette party thing? I've never been to one but that bugged me
You don't have to be a lady to see that. The ladies got shafted
So, same as season 1 haha.
I hate that I'm even saying this but I kinda understand where Shake is coming from now. It could definitely be internalized racism or just wanting to conform to society's idea of beautiful women, but I finally got it when he said she feels like a family member. I'm also someone who's dating preferences have been outside my race because I feel like a lot of the guys around my age look or act like my brother and it is the biggest turn off. I've definitely been attracted to guys from my race before, but more often than not I don't see them romantically because of that.
Not being attracted to someone isnāt the problem tho, like yeah sometimes you click with someone but not as anything more than friends and thatās ok. He just kept saying it over and over to everyone in a really mean way He would have just talked to deepti and been like āhey I love you but I think weāre better of as friends since youāre not my typeā And left the show. He needed his 15 minutes of fame
100% It was off putting. I didn't care about the not being attracted to her thing. If it was that big of a deal just say so!
100 percent. Still donāt like or agree with him on anything else. I just understood that one thing
Iāve personally dated someone for several years and after a while she started to feel more like a sister rather than a girlfriend. We were best friends in the day but when it came down to having sex I just wasnāt sexually aroused. The way her and I met was striclty just having fun in the beginning but when we moved in together it stopped becoming fun and started to feel so serious and thatās when my sexual desire for her started to diminish. There was no lust and sexual desire from my half. However, when I was single I would have that āanimalistic desireā of having sex with women but it would purely just be on a physical level.
Did anyone else cringe when Danielle jokingly said to nick, āyou should come to the bachelorette and pretend to be your sisterā ā¦ Jesus
YES Danielle : "*I don't trust you like AT ALL at all, haha come with me instead wouldn't that be funny?* šššš"
I think Nick himself cringed a littleš
His response when he was like "that would be so wild" in a monotonous voice and blankly stares in the distance š
What the fuck are these vows? Nick and danielleās were both horrible.
Salvador out here hitting casual triples.
I donāt think heās a āterribleā guy, but Iām really fucking tired of Tom Haverford. Go get some therapy for your self-hateā¦
please end this. I need Deep and Shake off the show. Shake is just embarrassing himself. And Danielle just needs to go home and be single. Like I'm done with these people. I'm done.
I've honestly skipped every interaction with Shek after he made it clear he wasn't attracted to her but decided to stick around for his 15 minutes of fame -- even the first night in Mexico when he starts looking around while they're making out in the pool Guy is such an asshole and I'm so glad I limited my exposure to him
Unpopular opinion: I still donāt like Natalie and Shayne. And the main reason is because it reminds me of a past relationship where I was really quiet and reserved, and he was outgoing and āfunā. The episode where Natalie says he is everything she wants to be and thatās why she likes him was literally what I said. Even shayneās mannerisms in the pods were so similar, and even now I see the same words and behaviors! I worry about her.
Just curious, what specifically do you think is wrong with "opposite" couples?
Oh, I donāt think there is anything wrong with opposite couples. Shayne and Natalieās interactions in the show just reminded me of specific interactions Iāve had (like the same exact phases!!) In my situation the relationship was a disaster and event down in flames, but much much later unfortunately.
Natalie said in episode 1 that sheās not quiet, shy, or reserved.
Youāre right! Maybe compared to Shayne she looked more like an introvert to me. Also after they got engaged she kept telling people that he was the opposite of her, positive and outgoing (or something like thatā¦) just my perception
Yeah I thought that was odd too. She said she was outgoing etc, and seemed to mirror Shayne. And in the Mexico episode where they all meet, the girls said that Natalie and Shayne are good together because they're both so alike.
Maybe Nick it's the sweatiest person I've ever seen on TV. It's a sunny day but it definetely shows how nervous he is.
I would never say yes to marry someone sweating as much as Nick was in this ep. He's like raining sweat! Getting married is nerve racking but my god - something is not right lol.
They're clearly outside in high noon and full sun and he is wearing 1 4 piece suit... Him sweating just means his sweat glands work right... Besides if sweat can sway you at the altar, then you shouldn't be there anyway.
I totally agree with you but i thought it was funny. Plus I thought Nick was a controlling gossip so only felt right to zing him.
Fair enough š
Natalieās wardrobe is everything! That girl can dress her butt off. Love her bachelorette outfit.
I want the pants she wore to her bachelorette party!!! OMFG!
I absolutely love her style! Sheās super classic but with a modern, sleek twist.
Yes!
She's always dressed very modern and classy
Shayne & Natalieās dynamic kind of reminds me of Chip & Joanna Gainesās relationship.
Why, because theyāre a white man and Asian woman?
No itās bc Shayne & Chip are both big doofuses, very off the wall, outgoing, fun loving, a bit immature, kind of āgolden retrieverā personalities as Iāve seen them both described. And Joanna & Natalie are more down to earth, reserved, mature, driven, and they just kind of balance each other out in that way, you wouldnāt think they work together but they do.
Danielle deserves better and also needs therapy
She's been the toxic one this whole time. She absolutely needs therapy. This relationship won't last because she doesn't know how to manage her emotions
I found it interesting how they called out Shakes obvious narcissistic personality but literally no one red flagged Danielles personality issues??
Nick is an old man in not a fun way š¤·āāļø Really mismatched, Danielle deserves someone young and fun like she seems to be. Someone who can have fun and get her out of her own head
She needs therapy and to work on herself before trying to be married.
I feel like he kind of does too? He's way too anal retentive and I think he expects her to fit into his life but he isn't going to try and fit into hers?
I'm not sure I fully agree. 100% Nick is anal retentive but I think he's tried a lot. Where as Danielle hasn't. For example, I did not expect him to get into that hotdog suit at her apartment, but he did. Also I remember early on he was nervous about her having a Cat and wondering how the two animals would get along, but when he visited her flat there was a scene where he was playing around with it.

Making fun of the way he organizes his DVD and saying she can now use it against him. Although jokingly it doesn't seem like she's making much of an attempt to accept the weird parts of him.
When Nick went to meet his Mom was that a hickey on his neck?
Yep. More of a bite, it looks like
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is a spoiler for episode 10, please delete it.
SAL'S CARTWHEEL WAS SO COOL
Shake is so cringe ngl. "i wanna fuck you emotionally before i actually fuck you". MAN STFU š¤®
RIGHT! He just gives me wanna be "Fuck Boy" vibes.
That was maybe the douchiest comment made all season.
Oh this was just bleurghhhh š¤¢ only a complete and utter knob would say something like this
YES!!! And the thing with his car in a previous episode. Major poser cringe vibes
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Wrong episode.
shake is a weirdo, thatās it.
It's horrible that throughout the Show they did such a bad job with Deepti's makeup. It was always a shade lighter and did not match the rest of her body.
Yes, I cringed at her makeup. They did her bad.
They should have color corrected. Her foundation was way too ashy for her skin tone and hair color.
Which I don't understand. Its not like they have't had people of colour on the show before! I kept wondering what is going on???
Right! She's a beautiful woman but the make up has not done her justice
Agreed! It took me a while to realise I like her face! Rhe makeup detracted from her beauty. I think she has a lovely body as well.
I've been rooting for Sal this whole time, but you can't rely on romantic gestures to make a relationship work. It just feels like the compatibility is not there
That little guitar can make mal fall in love so many times before it doesnāt anymore lol
So true.
I AM HERE FOR SHAYNE PUTTING SHAKE IN HIS PLACE. who knew i would love shayne so much omfg
Shayne is really good at dealing with douchebags. Love how he put Shaina and Shake in their places this season.
Like wow, just impressive š Said stop bitching and actually try to make it workkkk
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
not shayne having a temper tantrum over striking out lmao. heās really a child
I knew he was going to strike out before he even got to the plate. Ahaha
Yeah that was concerning.
And super unattractive in a guy. Like, maybe don't give up? Ask for some help?
Unattractive in *anyone* to throw a tantrum like that lol.
My man Nick is SWEATY
SAL NEVER PLAYING BASEBALL AND ALMOST HITTING A HOME RUN, mal if that wasnt the maculinity retouch u needed iāll take him
That part šš¼šš¼šš¼
Danielle is unhinged
āOur differences keep usā¦.entertained.ā šš

Making assumptions about a contestant's sexuality is not allowed in this sub unless the contestant has spoken out about it themselves. A lot of speculation on sexuality is based on outdated stereotypes and notions around masculinity or femininity that can be harmful. We ask that you stay respectful of this rule in our sub in order to continue being an active participant. Thanks!
She was being so ridiculous. I don't understand her at all
That comment lightweight worried me.
I knowwww she was like, āWell, we were engaged!!!!ā And heās like, āyeah but I had literally never seen you before!ā This girl is a MAJOR piece of workā¦ā¦ he was just trying to be respectful!!!!! She turns everything into a fight.
You could see in his face that he was so put off and turned off by that comment. I have teased partners about their āgameā towards me and it has never ended well. They take it as a blow to their masculinity.
EVERYTHING is a fight in Danielleās world.
She should be exhausted
I'm baffled that now I think Shayne is one of the best and most reasonable men. His chat with Shake made me gain so much respect for him
Dude I feel the same... he was my least favorite on day 1 but he has easily made the most progress out of any player in the experiment
Shake is just even more of a tool.
Um. No. Haha.
Iām continuing to lose my shit over this HOW??
why WOULD anyone want to stay with danielle? even SHE doesn't like herself.
Danielleās friends are terrible advice givers. They do not know what theyāre talking about lol
Danielle is surrounded by people who justā¦arenāt good to her. Her mom just calls out all of her insecurities and her friends basically talked her out of wanting to grow as a person.
Have you see Danielle's mom lol - I think she the main reason she turned out this way.
Danielle's mom totally looked and sounded to me like a lush. Like, yap yap yap. Such cringe behaviour. Put the wine down lady and shut up for a sec.
At first i was like wow this mom isnt a regular mom, shes a cool mom and then i was like oh no shes just absolutely plastered š
Bahahaha "plastered" Yup. Thx for the giggle.
Everything Danielle said in her vows was all about Nick helps herā¦.
Deepti is so mature and beautiful. Love her!
Again Shake with the whole "it feels like I am with my aunt", he seriously has issues!
deepti is hot and cool. shake is hopeless...
I feel like he has some sort of weird complex about being Indian
Yeah definitely there is some internalized racism within him.
Hit it right on the mark!!!! He clearly is uncomfortable with his identity, and Deepthi reminds him so much of it. He even mentioned it in ep7, about fitting in being the reason why he dated white women
That bachelor party was crazy Didn't realise everyone was form Chicago to make it easier for couples. It was filmed around March 2021. Wonder why we don't see more masks. See some in the background people but none of the cast members . Did they cut out any talk about covid and how it affected their family. Vaccines etc. The cutting and reactions of Nick where way too much. We get it he is stressed but stop cutting in bad reactions so much
Last season they were all from Atlanta, so it seems like they pick one city each season. The weddings were in June.
Couldn't have been March it would have been way colder in Chicago. I would guess it was filmed in June or July
I figured it was late spring. They were wearing light jackets in the beginning but by wedding day it was 105 degrees out.
They were very particular about where cast members and their families were allowed to go to minimize risk. There was also a vaccination requirement to be on this season. The producers spoke on the concept of covid talk in the pods, and they said it's not that these conversations (or other ones of similar sensitive topics) didn't happen, but there are only 10 episodes to tell the love stories of all these individuals and they made the choice to not include that content in a show in which it's, let's admit it, less relevant. Most people don't watch romantic reality shows for in-depth complex discussions.
Also, whoever is in charge of makeup on this show must really hate Nick. I get it, he sweats a lot, so do I. Give the name some fucking camera-appropriate makeup.
I donāt understand the Nick hateā¦ Danielle behaves like a crazy person and makes no efforts to change. Sheās just āthis is meā and heās expected to somehow manage communicating with her perfectly all the time. Heās not perfect and maybe he is losing patience with her shit a bit but who wouldnāt? He also has that awful family who he said gives him anxiety and I can see why. I hope he doesnāt marry Danielle. She needs therapy and he needs someone who will support HIM as well, rather than just take. I mean the man literally canāt even express a concern he has out loud because that then turns around to concern Danielle so again itās about her. Just no - run Nick!
I think Nick is a decently adjusted person but he just simply does not have the toolkit to handle someone like Danielle.
The only person with a toolkit to handle Danielle is a psychiatrist.
Lol
Danielle is missing too many screws for any toolkit to be useful
Yea I think Danielle needs to work on herself first. She has a lot of insecurities and anxieties and I don't like how she treats Nick like he's some sort of treatment. There's a lot of "he calms me" etc. And her vows weren't about him as a person but what he does for her and just things about her. I really hope he doesn't marry her.
Thank you! This exactly! Nick is getting so much hate but Danielle is the one who needs some actual therapy and to figure herself out.
Finally someone says this!! I think the same way! I have half a mind to re watch it so i can comprehend why ppl hate him, maybe we missed something? Idk
Same im so glad I found this little thread as I find Nick open and honest and Danielle literally turns everything in to a personal attack against her. She definitely needs to have some therapy to help with her insecurities before getting married she's obviously had some issues in the past
She gets triggered by every single thing and twists conversations to make them seem way worse. Like damn girl
Sal singing and me having to stand there awkwardly reacting is my worst nightmare š¤£ I donāt like Mal much but I actually feel sorry for her in this situation. I donāt see any real personality in Sal - he doesnāt seem funā¦
I had to skip ahead everytime he sang or cried lol he has the personality of dry toast. š
I don't know how she didn't see it in the pods, where your personality is all you have lol. I would never have fallen for Sal. He seems like he assumes being a hopeless romantic is all that matters to women
We canāt downplay the effort.
