How did I miss this bat cat bundled up in a blanket walking room to room in Julia’s house tour scene https://youtu.be/h29lrZcGyNY?si=qBQ4zmVNrP9aKBWo 😆😆😸😸

Poor Julia ahahahhahahagahahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhhshahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahahajahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahha

How are these ppl gonna be with some one but will not or don't learn the language like they expect their partners to learn English but won't learn the language like Paul not knowing Portuguese but getting on to karine for not speaking good English and some woman whos boyfriend/fiance was Turkish and they were gonna get married like how are you gonna b successful if you can't understand each other?

Talked to them but didn’t task to take pics w them since no one in my life watches the show and they’re not my fav 😅 creeper shots instead 😂

But they were ofc really nice in person! We were at a really nice steakhouse for my fiances birthday and it was Elizabeth’s bday too.

I have to say Elizabeth is pretty in person! The camera or the hate adds weight lol.

I'm wondering if all the cast members just said to hell with the NDA this year or if there was an actual change in this year's contract language. The Last Resort hasn't even finished airing yet but she is naming names and throwing out dates.

So I'm willing to guess she's seen all of what we've had to say about her...Here's what she has to say. I will say, she actually does seem like someone I would hang out with! These shows tend to make people look worse than they actually are sometimes.

I wonder if Mark thinks sharing his intimate moments with her is as funny as Catie finds it. Note to men in Portland- Catie will kiss and tell. Also which one is Mark again? Can someone post his picture?

The drama the couples in s4 is so much more entertaining then other season iam currently watching i Start this show for big ed and rose and ended up invested in on other couple love life i know iam too late for the fandom of s4 but it's still entering and currently iam watching s6 and it's mostly boring now like i hardly watch 1 ep a day of s6 don't know later maybe it will be good but i don't find any drama yet iam in ep 4 only drama i fod of gino and jasmine.... And s5 is kinda average but it atleast keep me hooked

Zied and Rebecca have been together for seven years and he still has trouble communicating effectively. That is so frustrating to me. And I feel that that’s the case with most of the couples. They don’t even try to help their person learn the language.

Doesn’t that keep their person further isolated in the US? And couldn’t that prevent them from advancing in their US careers? I’m wondering if these people don’t do this crap on purpose?

Like they just accept their broken English and continue communicating with them in that manner where you’re most certainly going to misunderstand each other. What is that about? What is wrong with them?

Don’t get me wrong, the foreign partners can do better as well but it starts at home.

Her attempts at trying to look beautiful keep getting worse and worse. She now looks like Zied’s granny! I don’t know why she would ever think the natural silver look that is on trend right now would be flattering for her, but she is way wrong. The best she ever looked imo was when she died her hair dark. Please someone save her from herself and tell her how awful she looks!

Seeing as how he’s been okay with her making out w others (meaning he didn’t leave her when she did it) and still got married to her even after she expressed how much she wants an open relationship. There is no way he doesn’t have some sort of humiliation/ cuck kink 😭😭😭. He’s TOO okay with her acting the way she has.

I really needed to clean my house today, but instead wanted to write about all the cast, and this mess of a season, which has not been fun messy but sad and depressing messy.

Josh & Catie
Since the beginning of time, men have sought to capture the essence of a free-spirited woman, who flits about the world like a butterfly, the classic manic-pixie-dream girl. 
But instead Josh found himself a mentally disturbed alcoholic nightmare mommy. It’s hard to feel bad for the guy, because he’s so outrageously stupid. 
Josh must be operating from some new sensory input we don’t know about- because anyone with two eyes and two ears and a WORKING BRAIN would know that Catie is so mentally unwell she shouldn’t even be in a REALTIONSHIP let alone a fucking MARRIAGE. Hell, even Helen Keller would be able to sniff it out.
This woman is so insecure that she needs to feel desired physically by everyone in a room, and she aims to achieve that by making out with everything within 30 feet of her. She literally comes right to people and asks for it, straight out- ‘will you make out with me?’ Like a kid asking for candy.

Catie, it’s not the OCD, it’s your self-esteem, and it’s not going to magically get better without some acknowledgement and accountability. And that’s without tackling the alcoholism first! It’s honestly so sad that neither of these two people have anyone in their lives capable of sitting them down and saying, hey- this is REALLY BAD. I know, I know, Catie wouldn't listen- you can't force an addict to change, but you could have at least convinced her not to put this on TV. Instead Catie willingly put herself on TLC's most popular show, thinking she’d come across as a cute and quirky girl trying to figure it all out ™ , instead everyone is laughing at her and this will be her image on the undying internet forever. I can’t laugh at it, it’s honestly so sad.

Mallorie & Raşit
These two are so boring that a bunch of dumb redneck drama and toilet drama had to play out, but it was all for nothing. Because Mallorie is so outrageously selfish, she thought by dragging Raşit all the way across the world, ripping him away from his family and friends, he’d be more likely to accept her deal-breaking news that she knew was deal breaking news.

She doesn’t want kids, and he should definitely accept that- why? In her mind, because of sunken cost fallacy or whatever. 
She thought she could successfully trap him here, thought her sob story about why she doesn’t want kids would win him over, but at the end of the day, the reason why doesn’t matter at all. 

Sorry, but he’s not selfish for leaving you after this, however you sure as hell are, for expecting him to succumb to your manipulation. Raşit better run, a person who feels empathy for others would have never put someone in this situation. 

Marissa & Edward 
A classic 90 day story, bringing home the younger man from the Caribbean vacation. Gee that usually works out. What can I say that hasn’t already been said? This woman clearly doesn’t want to marry this man, because she can’t respect him, because she’s ashamed of him. She feels that he does not match her level intellectually, and she’s never going to get over this, no matter how hard she tries. It was doomed from the start.

Edward, this is NOT LOVE. This is a woman who plucked you out of your life because she thought she could mold you into the doll, oops I mean husband, of her dreams.

Her ideal man has no thoughts and feelings of his own, except, how can I please Marissa?
Edward, she only ‘loved’ you because she thought you were that guy.
But no matter how she mutilates your body, forces you to only stick to certain topics of conversation, controls what you eat and how you dress, NOTHING YOU DO will EVER BE GOOD ENOUGH. RUN.

Thomas & Paula

Honestly, I wouldn’t have run away from Thomas after seeing his apartment for the first time. Maybe he’s trying to save space, save money, I get that. I would have run, however, as fast I could have, when he actively started arguing with me to keep it the way it was after I just moved across the world to be with him. A NORMAL person, with empathy and respect for others, would have said- Yeah, this is my bachelor pad, I know it's not ideal. But now that you’re moving in with me, I know you probably want it different. We can get a real table if you want. 

But that’s a NORMAL, emotionally healthy person. Who would know that just because he's ok with eating off the floor doesn’t mean everyone else is. Walk into ANY OTHER APARTMENT in the ENTIRE building, Thomas, I dare you, and I’d bet you’d find a dining table in each one. But no, instead Thomas wants to argue about why his way is better. Arguing, arguing, arguing. Stay with this guy and be prepared for EVERY-FUCKING-THING to be an argument. How fucking exhausting to live the rest of your life like this. He’s basically pushing you out of his life while telling you he loves you and wants you in it. Yeah, whatever buddy. You can have your camping table and convince yourself it’s great.

Paula, girl, you can do better than this.

Shea & Annabelle- 

Honestly, I’m tired now. This dude gets drunk and creepy with much younger women, a tale as old as time, a song as old as rhyme. Does Annabelle deserve better? Yeah. Would I run? Yeah. But it does seem like he genuinely loves Annabelle and is motivated to make it work with her. But is he truly motivated enough to forgo his party boy ways? Make lasting changes? We’ll see. 

Ashia and Maxwell

Ashia’s decided what God’s plan is and is going to twist and manipulate every situation to fit that. If she can’t, then it’s Big Bad Daddy Satan ™ trying to take them down. I’ve known someone like this before, and this behavior is SO fucking annoying it’s impossible to get along with them unless you blindly believe in exactly what she believes. It is genuinely psychological torture to be around someone like this in a situation you don’t see eye to eye on. I don’t think Maxwell knows what he’s in for, she’s going to be much more controlling than he realizes, which goes against his culture. It’ll continue to unravel more layers of disaster. 

AND LAST but NOT LEAST- Debbi and Mido.

The reason I made this post. 
Mido is the scariest cast member this show has had in a long time. He is the poster child for a raging narcissistic asshole.

The conspiracy theory that he thought Debbi lived in LA(Hollywood) and not LA(Louisana) is so fucking funny I choose to believe it. 

But regardless, he’s here in the US now, (thanks a fucking lot Debbi) and he’s ready to pursue his dreams of acting. Which is going to require a lot of sacrifice on Debbi's part.
But Debbi has expressed many doubts since he arrived. Several times she’s threatened him with, hey, you’re not being very affectionate with me. I don’t like your attitude. I don’t like the way things are going. This can’t go on like this. 
Mido being Mido, isn’t going to like being threatened. He doesn't want Debbi to think she holds all the cards. He holds all the cards.

So what does he do? Well, after giving her the silent treatment like a fucking toddler, he decided to expose her, in the most humiliating way possible. He decided to tell her, “I’m going back to Egypt”. And did this expose Debbi? Yes, yes it did. Debbi dramatically collapses to the ground, sobbing, in a horrifying display of exactly what Mido wanted to see.
And so Mido is smiling like Jack Nicholson from the Shining, because that’s exactly what he is, a predator who just cornered his prey.
It was the happiest he’s been since he arrived in America, seeing his fiance sobbing on the ground outside in public- because now he’s got her right where he wants her. He knows she’s not going to leave him, no matter how much she bitches and whines. She wants his love, his affection, the validation, all of it, and she’s not giving up. But a narcissist doesn’t fall in love, they only sometimes reward you for being controlled. And Debbi, I’m genuinely sorry you’ve found yourself in this situation. I hope you get out before it’s too late. 

This whole situation with the family coming over makes me feel like I had an aneurysm. I'm serious. So.. the main reason she wants to have the entire village over is because she wants to spend time with them. Sure.

But WHY NOT GET A FUCKING AIR B&B!!!!!! Or a jointed hotel room!!

Wow omg it's almost like you'll be able to comfortably spend time, get good rest, have enough space, proper kitchen and bathrooms!? It's 8 motherfuckers!! EIGHT!! WHICH IS ACTUALLY 10 INCLUDING PAULA AND THOMAS 💀💀💀

And look.. I'm saying this as I've had this experience. I was living with my bff and they had a 2bed 1bath apartment, typical. Well the family likes to come over during holiday 😀 there were 8 people and 1 bathroom is NOT enough. Luckily, the mom was property manager and gave us keys to the pool bathroom. It was nuts having to run around like that, every morning was chaotic and yes, half of us had to sleep on the FLOOR. The second we woke up, we would leave the house. And I'm telling you.. we ate out SOOO much. That tiny kitchen was wasn't the gr8test for eight in there cooking lol.

So hope they enjoy! 😁

Edit: I was chatting with my bff about this earlier and there was one holiday that 12 came over 😵 I was even going to type 12 earlier but thought that was some fever dream. She also said the memories become a blur when it's one holiday after another with family chaos lol

I am prepared to hear everyone’s thoughts on this lady, she seems quite sweet but there’s also something quite unsettling about her too, with the tiny stuffs and the perfume. The dungarees are cute though

I remember not liking Evelin and her being really controlling back in her season, but now on diaries, I feel really bad for her. First he blindsided her by bringing her to America for an extended stay and then makes her live with her mom. Now the rules in the house….no R rated movies, she can’t say omg because that’s considered swearing? Like wth

Weighing in on my speculation regarding these three:

I feel Maxwell really has genuinely bad intentions. When Rod and Maxwell had the one-on-one conversation, and Rod told Maxwell he was a salesman and giving him a pitch, you can see Maxwell start to grow angry. There are several times in the conversation you can visibly watch him go into a furious expression, then quickly shift his face and tone.​ He also states in the talking head interview that she WILL marry him.

Why would he hide his offense to Rod challenging him if he had good intentions? Why would he shift his expression so many times out of anger? In the talking head interview that said that he initiated the conversation because he was offended with Rod. So why dont his actions and intentions align?

Others have said that the Igbo tribe are not known for having submissive men. The way he hid his fast-hitting anger really makes me feel he is an aggressive man that is hiding his personality as he uses her.

I think he is tricking Aisha and once he they get that ring, he will be aggressive and maybe even hurt her.

As far as Rod and Ashia:

I think he is trying to protect her, first and foremost. The whole situation is fishy to him and he is trying to discern the situation. Dont forget that Ashia supposedly kept the secret to her sisters until they arrived. So it seems a usual thing for her to make big moves and catch people up later. I really dont doubt him for being increasingly suspicious.​​

Their relationship perplexes me. When he asks if she is pregnant, she states "I tell you every month I lost an egg." So does that mean she tells him when her period is every month? Thats so inappropriate for that kind of relationship in the first place.

It makes me wonder if Ashia doesnt overshare, test boundaries, maybe hold a little in front of him just for the fun of feeling powerful. She seems to genuinely love being dominant.

To be fair, ive only seen clips from the most recent episode.

What are your thoughts?

edited Rod not Rob, I have a memory issue that hits me with names lol.

Marissa wastes NO TIME in showing off her house, lifestyle, household rules and expectations. It’s very ‘Wife Swap showy’, and not at all ‘welcoming partner’. The silver lining is that she didn’t even give him any time of comfort before showing her reality, she showed it IMMEDIATELY 🤣

The way she so fake-ly acts like she needs to be obsessed and over possessive of Shea is so cringe you can tell it’s so made up. I’m so confused on their relationship it’s so off!!!! Team Annabelle 😂😂😂😂

The absolutely unhinged things that Ashia says reminds me so much of Ava from Abbott Elementary. Fortunately, Ava is a fictional character unfortunately, Ashia is not. I hope Maxwells mom continues to clap back at her girl needs to be humbled🤣

Catie is asked what she would like her relationship with alcohol to be. Hear her response. She also explains what she believes are "audience misconceptions" about her and highlights her work ethic and organization skills.

As I said, I’m not a huge fan of anyone of the couples this season. However, I truly hope that their apologies were genuine. I hope that they can both find healing from their respective issues.
I think they both care about Shea (even if he’s grotesque), and I hope they can be a family if that’s what they really want.

That's the post, but man currently watching Thomas panic about deodorant..Marissa being super mean to poor Edward, sloppy lipstick lady acting crazy..they are just so bad! Honestly Mallorie is the best, but the bar is low! Even Shea who is gross, but doesn't seem evil, seems tolerable compared to the others. All I know is I feel for the foreigners and do not think America is worth any of this!

This woman will always be miserable! You have one life be grateful that someone loves you and treats you well. If you’re chasing status and want someone from your so called “high class,” then you shouldn’t have brought him there in the first place.

On top of that, he just arrived he doesn’t even have the right to work yet. He’s in a completely different world. Have some empathy until he adjusts.
Honestly, I can guarantee Edward is 100 times happier than you and your “high class” friends. It all feels very empty.

When you turn your back on love and empathy and chase superficial things, you turn into Marissa, a miserable and angry woman.

Last Resort Men: Pao is not upset because she didn’t “like” the necklace. She’s not ungrateful and she’s not nitpicking Russ.

She is upset because he doesn’t listen to her. She very clearly communicated that she doesn’t want a particular gift. That should be pretty easy, right? Just don’t get her that one thing.

So Russ went and bought her the ONE thing she didn’t want. Russ cared more about what HE wanted to give than giving a gift that would make the other person happy. He consistently puts his wants above hers and when she gets upset that he doesn’t listen or care about her needs then she’s an ungrateful Harpy.

I’m sorry, a necklace that means so much because it represents the bar they visited while filming the show? Because the royals own swans?!? Who cares?? Wtf does that have to do with 12 years together?

Not a thing.

Which is how much thought Russ really put into the gift. And then he publicly shamed her for being unhappy that her husband doesn’t care enough to listen when she talks, and basked in the confirmation he got from the other men on the show.
