J "I get you - I had wondered if you were talking about Zoe and Jenna. I think some patience - which seems in short supply with them - would let them open up to whats highly important to each other and change, without feeling pressured. | |||

" I feel quite sad about Gemma. Yes, the sex has to be good but it doesn't have to be instant. She seems to seek validation in being sexually desired and it is painful to watch her breakdown because he is not providing that. I find it troubling that her justification is that it's not unreasonable to demand this from her 'husband'. The edit prevents us from seeing how much they have got to know about each other. The amount of time they have spent together is easily equivalent to dating for a month, it's just all under pressure. | |||

"Just caught up with this weeks. April needs to walk away from George, very, very fast Why aren’t they giving him some counselling? He needs help to work through his trust issue J x" It's perhaps because they perceive it as good entertainment. Many of us like him and they'll know his popularity, so it's got higher stakes for them to facilitate the drama. That's my guess. I think they feed us TV acceptable relationship guidance, whilst they are driven by the production company to facilitate drama. I was amazed last night, when he introduced his perception of his wife having a be acceptable for several people, including his parents, not just him and his kids. Unfortunately, I'm biased and would probably tolerate too much from him . (Hence I'm single). | |||

"Just caught up with this weeks. April needs to walk away from George, very, very fast" His life, wants and concerns, feel a little too inflexible for a new relationship. Not sure if I’m right but I get the sense she has a confident life of spontaneity and carefree fun, whereas he need consistency, routine, and stability. | |||

"Just caught up with this weeks. April needs to walk away from George, very, very fast Why aren’t they giving him some counselling?

She said she often didn't even know they were looking and he didn't believe her. He also has massive issues about her past relationships and has accused her of lying about them. This kind of insecurity never goes away and ends up with one partner being controlled. | |||

I know I'm more heavily invested than a sensible person should be and it's edited to look a certain way so let me say this is my opinion based on limited evidence. I wonder if he is a manipulative, control freak who controls women by behaving as if they're responsible for every hurt he's suffered in the past. Think you’ve hit the nail on the head there. From the beginning, the way he stares, controlled speech and when having an ‘emotional’ hug most times those eyes are still open and staring - comes over being a bit psychotic. Not forgetting the fact at the first dinner party, he went round telling people about her kissing another woman in the hot tub before she arrived. What new husband would do that to his new wife to strangers? One who wants to isolate his partner, he can't do it physically while they're on the show so he's tried by making her the bad guy What I can't understand is if the experts really are experts, why haven't they spotted this behaviour?" Indeed. A sort of thing a narcissistic partner would do: play the victim to the outside, whilst mistreating his partner behind closed doors. After watching several series of the Australian version and now the UK version is reverting to this format, I wouldn’t be surprised that the producers are calling the shots to make more drama by mismatching couples, rather than the so-called ‘experts’. Although the Australian version is much better at it!

"I concur with all the comments on George and April. Gemma and Matt are a mess. Sophie and Jonathan... he has his own control issues going on. Telling her that her workouts will spoil her legs! And she better not gain any weight. " Gemma needs counselling i think-i wonder if her background has contributed to her insecurities | |||

"I avoid watching shows like this. I prefer to have a functioning brain" Should they even be making these shows? They just use these people then spit them out. Nevermind the quality of the show, is it particularly moral? Sure they might be volunteers, but some people will volunteer for the most insane things. | |||

I don't think it's immoral, unwise to participate maybe. If someone I loved wanted to go on I'd advise against it. | |||

It’s quite worrying that the producers would let someone like that onto the show. But then again, these sorts of people are very good manipulators. | |||

How would his exes know he was going on the show to warn them? I think his behaviour sets of sirens but it would be negligent and a safeguarding risk if the producers had been warned. | |||

"'MAFS UK star George Roberts has been arrested after three of his ex-girlfriends alleged that he 'emotional abused' them and used coercive behaviour while dating them. The reality TV star has continued to deny the allegations.' The home visit was uncomfortable.. The way his mum was wringing her hands about the potential hurt +deception and heartbreak that hadn't even occurred
Do you think they put him on the show, so his true colours were revealed?? "If they did whoever is responsible should be sacked. I spotted his behaviour a couple of weeks ago and couldn't believe that the 'experts'hadn't, I still can't. I agree about his mum. However we should bear in mind that nothing has been proved against him | |||

"Last night was awful, yet again . I will not watch a new series" I feel like this too. Its car crash tv though, and its human nature to rubber-neck whilst passing! Matt os the biggest guy with the smallest mouth! | |||
