      I thought it was weird that he was shopping with her and then she was being very snappy but later on when he said that shopping in the future, he's just going to her let her shop and he's just going to stand back and sit down and she was upset. Freddie is shopping with her then and she hates it and probably doesn't want to get snapped at in the future. I wish he would have responded like, well I'm shopping with you now and you don't seem to like it.

      Aside from the weird stuff Freddie did later, I felt like she was being weird that day. To not want a guy who jokes and has fun with you is bizarre to me. She even said, I feel like his friend. To me, that’s what a marriage is, a friendship. Without a little playful humor I wouldn’t even be interested in the guy. But that’s just my opinion

    Being adopted myself, I was happy to see this subject addressed in the show. I also know that my adoption contributed to my trauma of abandonment (and working on it). But I was quickly frustrated to see Catherine use the subject of adoption for every issue in her life and in their relationship.

      @kendallpaige4160 11 วันที่ผ่านมา +8

      I don’t know what your adoptive parents were like, but I have friends looking into adopting and they’re so excited. They already see the child they’ll get (they only just started the process) as a miracle that God gave them through someone else since they can’t conceive. I know it doesn’t take away your trauma, and I’m not trying to do that, but you were chosen to be loved and cherished by a family that wanted a child 💜 (again, I don’t know that for sure, but that’s been the cases for most of the adopted people I know and my friends now adopting)

    Catherine at the bar scene flirting with Sam right in front of Freddie and everyone- that actually made me physically recoil when I first watched it. I felt hurt FOR Freddie. I don’t understand why she repeatedly knowingly hurt someone she’s supposed to care for, and didn’t seem to apologize for it.

  • @tolulola7680

    Catherine was so unkind and unpleasant to Freddie. It was always so hard to see him hang his head in confusion everytime she'd snap at him completely unwarrantedly. The scene with her friends was so bizarre... I truly am glad he knew he deserved better. I frankly think even Cat knew he deserved better from day one, and so she was simply projecting and preempting his eventual rejection. Honestly, the people that come into these experiments should undergo closer psychological screenings.

    I feel like Catherine was only able to be a little vulnerable or emotionally intimate with either of her connections. Ollie picked up on it, while Freddie did not until they were out of the pods and he started to pull back. I think the ‘original sin’ of Catherine is her difficulty coming to terms with her sense of self and her adoption. Girl has a lot of work to do before she’s ready for marriage.

    • @frankie9953

    • @no.6377
      @no.6377 12 วันที่ผ่านมา +7

      I right away didn't like how she handled that entire Ollie situation. She was just too desperate to make sure everyone knew she wasn't dumped, even in the interview after she feels the need to say something like," I'm so glad I decided to end things with Ollie". Like girl,we know what you're doing😂😂 and insisting that she was definitely better off with Freddie. Like Freddie said, it was a pride thing with Ollie. As someone who's also hyper sensitive to rejection, I can definitely understand the desire to avoid it at all costs. But oh boy, seeing it from an outside POV makes the motives so transparent 😅😅

    A lot of the participants on this show are not ready for marriage at all, its crazy how unprepared mentally, emotionally, financially these people are - on a show about getting married immediately!! Also why dont they provide the couples with premarital counseling?
    This should be a relationship show and not a marriage show.

  • @BeholdenProductions
    @BeholdenProductions 12 วันที่ผ่านมา +27

    One of the things that has baffled me throughout the LIB series in general, and especially this first UK outing, is the poor financial literacy of so many of the cast members. The whole prenup conversation, firstly that not everyone on LIB is having that talk astounds me as marrying in 6 weeks without that agreement seems particularly foolhardy on top of already risky proposition, but also because a prenup is a great way for both parties to outline their needs and expectations. Freddie’s desire to protect the assets he built for his family (we don’t know from the show but many funeral homes are family businesses) and particularly to ensure the wellbeing of his brother who needs extra care is truly admirable and honest/upfront. That is a man who will also be very thoughtful about the care of his future children AND his spouse. A mature, financially literate person could meet him in the middle with a transparent negotiation and say something like, “I love that family is so important to you and you want to honour your obligations, I know that in time you’ll feel the same way about the family we will grow together. To that point, while I completely agree that for the next while it makes sense that your assets still go to your brother/sister or a trust if you passed unexpectedly young, I think you could see that if we were married for a long time - say, 25 years, and have a couple of kids, that those same provisions would also be unfair to me as your longterm spouse and your kids, who may still be minors or may have their own special needs. So can we talk about what it’ll look like longer term? Can you imagine my having to leave our home of decades because it wasn’t left to me? That extreme also seems unfair, while I also acknowledge the other extreme: that if I were your wife of only 6 months and you fell off a cliff it does also seem unfair for me to get everything and your family being cut off. Are there set assets like your home or a certain amount that you want to remain yours and leave to family and anything accrued together in our marriage over time is shared? How will we build wealth over time and our own family within this framework? Could we invest in a property that is ours only together or find a way to safeguard our family home like granting me living rights even if it doesn’t go to me outright?”
    To just eschew a prenup altogether under LIB circumstances is a total red flag to me and further emphasizes a blatant asymmetry in Freddie & Catherine’s relationship - the reason he has a house to stay in and eat beans on toast in is because he was financially prudent and has accrued assets. Catherine still lives with her parents and clearly doesn’t save much, if any, which is why she can go out so much. In a perfect world, Catherine could learn and benefit from Freddie’s fiscal responsibility and Freddie could find some more enjoyment in life from Cat’s joie de vivre (like taking vacations, etc.) but instead the very qualities that were attractive in the beginning as oppositional forces became sticking points. Catherine wants a stable, financially sound husband but then can’t accept Freddie making stable, financially sound choices (whether staying in and watching a movie snd eating beans instead of partying, or asking for a prenup). Similarly, Freddie seems to enjoy that Cat likes experiences and finer things in some ways, but sends her mixed messages (e.g. calling her bougie and then getting her expensive earrings) about her preferences. By getting her those earrings, he kinda reinforced his own concern that she may in part be in this for access to his assets/pocketbook as it did sort of read like “you don’t get me but you do get a consolation prize” - which I agree does seem like a parting gift and a nice gesture but it also solidifies his underlying fear that she wants creature comforts and high life but might not be in it for him/love. That’s another big reason prenups can be helpful, if there is wealth discrepancy it’s a hood way to see if your partner is willing to sign away those potential benefits for the relationship, that’s a good indicator that it’s a love match as opposed to a material match. Prenups can have stipulations (e.g. after X period of time assets become joint) and can be renegotiated later as the marriage solidifies.
    I was really sad for these two as they had so many surface-level things going for them - they look great together and have similar interests/connections to down syndrome, etc. But they are fundamentally at very different life stages and levels of maturity. Catherine seems like she is still deeply troubled and has a lot of healing and emotional work to do, but I do think shrouded under a lot of poor behaviour is a fundamentally good person trying to find their way. Freddie seems mature and pretty ready for a serious commitment, kids, etc. I wish they could’ve closed the gap together but hopefully they’ll both find great partners apart and enjoy the love they both deserve. My heart does ache for Catherine’s unresolved attachment trauma and I do hope she can overcome it with time.

    I believe Cathrine did everything to sabotage the relationship. I think Freddie was really scary to her because he was so solid. She wanted to find the problem when there wasn’t one and I bet she’s so used to shitty men and it’s very scary meeting someone who is treats you like a partner should. There can be a lot of paranoia around that.

    I absolutely love this take, Catherine set Freddie up for failure with every question or test she had for him. She was always going to find a fault in his answers and behavior to justify or excuse her actions and her perpetual distrust or just overall unsatisfied by him. I also found it telling that she was very unamused and unimpressed with Freddie's career or his work ethic/how he took pride in his job and his reasoning behind it (plus finding out he always had he brother in mind when thinking about his future and the whole pre-nup convo) UNTIL she saw his house🤔🤔😳 and realized he wasn't some scrub with a pretty face. He was very serious and dedicated to his family.

    Hi there @StephAnya,LMFT may I please ask a question? You didn’t touch in the family dynamics in this breakdown, and I was keen to hear your take on Catherine’s adoptive parents. I remember they both gave Freddie some really good advice about dealing with Catherine and marraige in general. Although I agree with and respect Freddie’s decision not to move forward. However, in Catherine’s parents interactions with Freddie, I truly felt that they were really good people with good intentions and cared for their children. They adopted Catherine and they seemed great. So my question is, what could they have done in Catherine’s upbringing to help here develop a secure attachment and good self-esteem? Or would her being adopted always have affected her that way? I’m wondering because if I would like to adopt one day, what can I do to help build that self-confidence in my child and make them feel accepted instead of rejected? Thank you so much for your content, truly love and appreciate it 🤗🤗💕

    About the earrings, I didn't catch it when I initially watched, but a couple different recaps/commentaries I watched mentioned they were pretty sure the earrings were actually a brand deal with Netflix because of the focus on them and the way they were displayed, so I personally think Freddie might have been alluding to pressure from production when he was talking about it being "frowned on" to not to get her the earrings. Just my opinion, but that explanation does make a lot more sense to me. 🤷‍♀️

    To me Catherine is one of those people (female or male) whose partner is more attractive than them, when they are used to be the more attractive one. This leads to insecurity and so they try to knock their partner down a few pegs so they don’t feel inadequate. I’ve seen it time and again.

    I think the reason why Cat was very sure of her wanting to move forward the day of the wedding was because it ultimately confirmed her initial feeling and auto sabotage during the show: she was yet and again being rejected. I think deep down she knew there would be a good chance of him saying no after all the conversations with Freddie. Although very hurtful for her to relive that situation, it is after all, known territory, so there is a sense of “controlled situation”. Kind of like a big “I told you this would happen”.

    Thank you, ma'am. Cat beat Ollie to the punch because she couldn't bear to have that man reject her first. Because? She feels superior to Demi and her brain can't handle any other scenario.

      Bingo! Cat switched on time to avoid rejection and a nasty person. The reunion let her slide big time and she was not going to take accountability. Glad Freddie dodged being her cash cow.

    This couple kind of showed that love isn't blind in the negative for me? As long as the love wasn't physical and just something theoretical, Catherine had nothing to feel inferior for. The weird things were obviously still there but most people can be a little condescending, mean or petty at times. But she actually saw what he looks like and that everyone can see just how attractive he is, her issues came in in full force. It is a little sad because at the core this could have been a good match. However, until she works these things out, they will always come in her way.

    i've been waiting for this!!! they were such a damn mess. from the moment she said once a cheater always a cheater their fate was sealed. felt bad for both of them and even though i got spoiled shortly before the wedding ep i still wept for them both and i usually don't get that emotional for reality tv. i had to pause and stop because of how sad i was.

    I was a big fan of Freddie on the show. The prenup discussion made perfect sense to me. In his job, he works with families of all kinds and different dilemmas that may show the issues of how a family member’s finances are handled when it comes to their passing and funeral arrangements. I bet he’s seen a lot on that front. Like many, he preferred to have a direct family member in charge and not someone he’s known for 4 weeks handle their finances.

    Great analysis. I am glad you pointed out some of what we were thinking. It was obvious she sabotaged the relationship as it didn't make sense why she would hurt such a nice man, ready for marriage. But you broke it down, now it all makes sense. As nice as Freddie is at least he no fool and knew she was ultimately not right for him and was grounded throughout the whole process.I hope he eventually meets someone a lot more suited. What a beautiful person and soul ❤.

    Girlfriend! Your explanation of Catherine's Self-Sabotage......😳😳🤯🤯 That poor girl. She definitely wanted Ollie, and said she didn't know what she would do if he didn't choose her. That's why she needed validation in Greece and needed to know from HIM what he thought about her after seeing her. Sooooo complicated the way the mind works.

    Prenuptials should be a requirement by the production team. It is the responsible thing in these flash connections. It would also remove that as a concern that may affect emotion and decisions.

    I agree that she self sabotage her relationship with Freddie. His a beautiful handsome man, has a respectful career, ( I'm pretty sure a modeling job or other professional careers he can get) but chooses his path because as he mentions in the pod his taking care of people's love ones when asked. I think Freddie was there to find love and be committed and he found it with Catherine. The way he spoke to her about his feelings during pod times and first seeing her. It was sad that she really didn't precipitated her feelings towards him. All she could say was meeting his family. I was rooting for them to make it because of their chemistry and instance connections. Hope they both find happiness in the future.

  • @ShadowMor00
    @ShadowMor00 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I find it very interesting how Cathrine tells her story. Yes, she was put into the foster care system, but she was also adopted by a loving couple. Of course she's allowed to feel upset about not being raised by her biological parents, but I think it would bring her a lot of healing to recognized the positive aspects of her adoption more.
    I also REALLY want to know if she's met her biological mom. Cathrine often uses the word "abandoned," and I wonder if she's learned some undeniable proof of that, or if that's just the narrative her pain has created.

  • @sassynchicago
    @sassynchicago 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Love your take on their relationship- I felt like Kathrine was trying to use emasculating methods to take control of their relationship. She although beautiful is self sabotaging as her insecurities got the best of her.
    She has a lot of work to do to be about to be in a healthy relationship.
    And boy oh cute boy- Freddie had my heart! Wish he could be on the bachelor!

    I was really shocked by Catherine’s behavior outside of the pods and immediately connected it to her self-sabotaging and, ultimately, I felt bad for her because Freddy seemed like such a great man and like someone who would work with her through it if she was vulnerable and aware enough to just say “I’m struggling with xyz, but I want to work on it.” I’m glad they didn’t get married, I don’t think it would have been healthy for either of them.

  • @zoeziebee
    @zoeziebee 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The out of the pods podcast suggested that the gift of the earrings was a producer idea, and what Freddie said at the reunion kind of confirmed that for me. He seemed like he was trying to make an excuse for being made to do it by the producers, without saying that’s what happened. When I watched it I did think it was misleading and gave Catherine the wrong idea, which seemed out of character for Freddie

    You didn’t have to call me all the way out like that 😫 In all honesty, I just had the realization that Catherine is me & I am Catherine 🫠 Not actually but you get it 😅 When you said how some people can handle some forms of intimacy but not all such as having great long distance relationships, that’s been me for so long!! 🤯 I would feel the most comfortable that way. Let a good man be down the street, baby I want him out of my face! 🤷🏾‍♀️
    I’ve had good guys & have found a way to self sabotage. Smh! But I truly desire love & a healthy relationship is the thing 🤔
    Welp, at least I’ve acknowledged it. I’m sure it’s from childhood. Now I have work to do & a therapist to find in my area 🔎😊

    Freddie and Cat were really not on the same page from the start.
    Sure they had some nice conversations in the pods, and yes they are both attractive people, but as soon as they are spending days in each others company on the vacation, she can't just be nice and never showed any real love for him.

    It was so painful to watch them.
    Freddie is probably the dreamiest guy on any season, just a sweetheart with the looks, a steady job, a sense of humour and family values. I would've liked to find out more about the context of the cheating, which they probably talked about (eg. was it a 3 month relationship and you had a one night stand, was it a partner of years and you had a full on affair, did you tell your partner or did you get caught, was it emotional as well as physical cheating etc), not to excuse it but to understand her reaction and how big of a deal it actually was in their relationship. It was sort of edited to make it seem like that news triggered all her insecurities.
    Catherine seemed indeed to have great insight but man, some bad judgement. I was flabbergasted and fascinated when she baited Freddie to say something she wouldn't like and was openly flirting with Sam to get back at Freddie (even Sam seemed uncomfy 😅), just so much emotional manipulation in one night. In general though she was a bit of a punish but wasn't really a bad person, and you could clearly see how devastating rejection was for her and maybe why she did all that mental gymnastics to avoid or lessen that feeling. She is in another long term relationship now with another guy from the pods so hopefully she's doing better now.

    Cat is very skillful, knew all the girls but to keep theirs in grils. It is sad she put all skin for herself and no one understand her, when she abandoned in the marriage, everyone are happy, but not me. You are wrong, because you can't estimated as she can do and doing with accompanying everybody, not to omit others with care.😊😊
