"WE WERE ON A BREAK!"
Ha!!! Will always be a classic line.
YES! 😂
thought the same! haha
"I don't think anyone would want to be with Zach" LMAO
Savage i was like 😮
Not even as a friend with benefits
@Miss Dor's daughter I think she deserves a man like Zak
I went to the comment section as soon as he said that 😂😭
except the only other most toxic person in the show… Katie
You give Katie WAYYYY more credit than she deserves. Derrick tried throughout the marriage and she wasn't into him so she spent their marriage attacking him. She also definitely cheated on him and is trying to cover her ass
Katie is an awful human being, and I’m tired of everyone going easy on her when they nail the guys for their issues. She is extremely verbally abusive, manipulative, and was never fully in it because her “love” for the ex which led her to cheat. I’m so glad Derrick is out of that-years down the line he would be such a different person after all of her abuse, and he’s really a happy nice and loving guy from what was shown.
Preach
Kirk usually goes extremely easy towards the women on these shows. It's like he's afraid his audience will dislike him if he doesnt
Derek reminds me of one of my good friends. He's just fun loving and great to be around. Katie was very self centered and too attached to her ex.
Um... I don't see Katie as being a "sweet person" at all. I find her toxic and foul. She berated Derek constantly for the dumbest crap. Everything was about her feelings and her perspective, it's like Derek wasn't allowed to have a point of view. And I don't believe for a second she friend zoned Derek first, THEN took up with the ex. Pretty sure she's been talking to the ex the whole time.
Yep Katie is trash and Derek did everything for her while she only cared for herself Dr. Honda acts like Katie does no wrong despite. Also there have been many sources that have confirmed that Katie cheated on Derik the whole way through
@@onxy1209 Yes, people came out to verify that she was sleeping with the ex just days after coming back from the honeymoon.
lol the ex came out and said she threatened him and came on the show if he didn't propose.
Never saw their whole season but the few moments I saw of them I could tell she didn't really like him. IDK... there's a tenderness ppl have for ppl they have romantic feelings for and I just didn't see it between them. I was a bit thrown to hear Doc say why he was surprised. Gotta go back and see that performance bc it has to be Oscar winning lol.
@@anushrees4981 I believe that.
What you’re doing is so important. Thank you. You‘ve helped more than you know.
yes!
💯!
I think Derek really tried but Katie remained stuck on her ex and kept sabotaging the marriage. When Derek said she made it easy to not love her, that was so true. Most of the matches have been good ones. I think people just give up too soon.
I grew up with three grandparents who are all licensed and practicing psychologists (two of them do couples therapy!) and I love hearing your perspective on these shows. I'm lucky that I grew up in a family that did not pathologize talking to a professional and put an emphasis on paying attention to your mental and emotional wellbeing in the same way you would your physical health. Not everyone had that experience and I think you are opening the door for a lot of people to see that therapy shouldn't carry a stigma and that it really is for everyone.
Derick was extremely easy and straight forward in this marriage. She should never have entered this Mafs . Wont be surprised if she did it to get her x back.And i dont think one should dilute it and say it hurts a little while a marriage is no small issue Pardon Dr.AndcI do think she feels guilty for treating this very solid guy so badly thats why he is aggressive for once
Katie and Zach was my 1st guess, being they both were cheating. I feel like Dr Honda has a biased opinion of Katie for some reason. She has seemed toxic since day one imo
totally agree.. he seemed to excuse every toxic thing she did.. I surmised it was because she was a supossed therapist
@@johnreed4401 Yeah I think he does have a slight bias to be supportive to other therapists.
I love how Dr Honda is in general, I think he's a great judge of character, but I noticed he was more forgiving of the therapist on 90 Day Fiance too, and she is an awful interviewer. She'd sit there while people were having communication issues, with the translator not helping out, and wouldn't say anything. She's let someone be bullied in front of her and do nothing.
But Dr Honda would still support the very few times she did anything, whereas I was just disappointed in her.
RE Katie, I didn't think she was toxic in the beginning, but to me, it was pretty obvious Derek probably is aromantic or aro-spec, and he wasn't supported.
He did indicate he didn't think he needed fixing I'm sure, and I was happy with that. But Katie was PUSHING him to change himself and force love, and that's horrible.
As an asexual, I can confirm how damaging it can be for someone to try to change your sexuality or romantic orientation.
I didn't like her once she was doing that. One time she was a bit drunk but I still didn't think she was unable to control herself, she was just trying to control him and making it a sob story about herself.
If she's a therapist, she really should have took a step back and remembered she's not the only one with needs. And just because she's 'more romantic' it doesn't mean Derek has no emotions that can be hurt and that her emotions mattered more.
And I honestly believe she thinks that he has minimal emotions, and would try to hurt him just to see if he had emotions. Then would be frustrated that he was capable of being hurt and upset but not capable of loving her.
Agree
I think you have bias towards Katie and giving her so much benefit of the doubt. A lot of excuses have been made for her but I think she was very much aware of her behavior and was just terrible all around even with knowing about Zach would go on a date with him and calling herself friends with Mindy.
totally agree for some reason he never called Katie out on all her horrible behavior.. I thought maybe it was because she was a so called therapist
BTW if anyone is on the fence about listening to Dr Kirk's Scientific matchmaking episode, I highly recommend it.
It was so informative and so well researched that it convinced me to become a patron.
5:37 "do they call this " a tell all"???? YA'LL KNOW DR.KIRK HONDA LOVES 90 DAY FIANCE AT THIS POINT.
Ha! Yeah. I don't much about reality TV. After watching 90 Day, I thought all reality TV shows had a "tell all." I guess not.
@@PsychologyInSeattle Most shows call it a reunion. Watching you try to peg who almost dated behind the scenes, I said "Oh, God, they've converted him! " 😂 I watch these shows now bc if you though!🤣
I actually thought he might be a fan of The Bachelor, which also has a “tell all”.
I think it would be great to react to some healthy relationships too so people see what that looks like.
Love that idea!
Another possibility is that Katie is lying to make it seem like she didn't cheat...
Even her saying "we didn't have a real marriage" sounds shitty. Lol what a gloss over of her poor character.
It seems like she lead him on and he's a bit bitter about it. I wouldn't be surprised if she did threaten him about talking about this since may negatively affect her future practice.
I'm late but I agree with your analysis of all the couples except Derek and Katie. I think the fact that Katie is a therapist biased you slightly to her, maybe subconsciously. Katie did nothing in or for their relationship. Derek was not the issue at all, he is lovely and I think given the right person and enough time he would have fallen in love. Everything else was spot on to me and very insightful. Thank you so much for spending time on this. You make me think more compassionately about others in my life.
watching these reaction videos with you changed my perception about your podcast. i'd listen to a podcast once in a blue moon when i need it emotionally or ready to change myself. but watching these examples and hearing your side on it is like 'here is an example of something you can relate to and how to resolve it better' and it registers in my brain for the next time to try a different approach. it is less stressing and more fun this way and it is working, i can tell! thank you dr. honda! keep doing what you do best!
I really enjoyed your line "ready to change myself". I sometimes would notice I felt lazy in that regard but hadn't put it in words. Thanks for that!
Omg I feel the same. It’s like adding steroids to my therapy.
Dr. Honda you have a much more glowing assessment of Katie in this relationship than me. I think she went on the show to make her ex, who she knew full well that she was still very much so in love with, mad, cheated on Derrick after the honeymoon, berated him for not being like her ex, dissed him repeatedly on national television, and appeared to do absolutely nothing kind for him from what we saw. Yes, he said it would be hard for him to fall in love, but he also put her on his insurance very early into the marriage. Finally, to pursue a possible romantic relationship with another cast member who couldn't even be bothered to move in with his wife was in very poor taste and all she should've needed to know to not date him. During the reunion I think she downplayed the relationship with the ex, because he declined a relationship with her again. She clearly has questionable taste in men. I understand why Derrick felt the need to get some things off of his chest at the reunion especially after seeing how critical Katie was of him every chance she got during filming.
I agree, I wonder why her poor behavior wasn't addressed
I agree. Her roommate who lived with her ex during the show said she dated her ex for 6 months and said if he didn’t propose she’d go on the show so I don’t think you’re wrong
than all of us
Literally I called this before the honeymoon ended bc her face and tone changed getting to the end of the honeymoon. So I totally believed when Derek said she went to see her ex right after the honeymoon.
Dr. Honda playing Matchmaker is so cute :) You're a fantastic and inspiring person Kirk!
Who else would like a Mafs Season 11 review? 🙋🏻♀️
KT Z yessss omg
Once it's done airing
It’s a must!!
YESSSSSSSS! I want to know what he thinks about Brett and Olivia!
Yes, yes, yes
Um.....yeah Katie admitted it was before the "breakup period" you keep referring too. So it would be an affair.
These reaction videos are how I found Psychology in Seattle, and I've looked for uploads every day since. I have been watching the earlier seasons and they had 4 experts that tell more about how they put people together.
About this season, I was surprised by Derek and Katie because Derek seemed into Katie, whether being in love or not. I think Katie checked out, so it's weird to hear Dr. Honda keep saying Derek just wasn't in love. I feel bad for Meka and Michael, Taylor and Brandon. They would've needed therapy and to not be on camera trying to work out their issues. I think that added to the stress. Zack needs help and I hope Mindy finds her confidence through this and finds someone that will treat her like the beautiful person she is. The other couple is just too cute and I'm glad they found each other.
The way you explained Mindy probably didn't know how Zack was, agreeing to have a date with him... Merciless. LOL
Your married at first sight series was great :-) thank you for reacting to it!!
I'm a single MFT and the thought of dating is disheartening. It's difficult to wade through the sea of "avoidant" singles to find a healthy match.
Dr. Honda, I think you have a blindspot when it comes to Katie and how rude and manipulative she is and sometimes you seem to jump the gun and make exceptions to the way she acts. She's spoiled, rude and full of herself and that's my take on her behavior this whole marriage. I don't think Derek was perfect, but she sure as heck said a lot of rude and hurtful things to him and I don't see you taking her to task about that.
I agree he has a blind spot. I think it’s because she is a fellow therapist. I really think she either just wanted to move her life forward and was trying to jump the gun or she did this show to get back at her ex. Either way her intentions didn’t seem good. I don’t think it would’ve went well for WHOEVER they matched her with.
She’s not a mental health therapist, though. What she does for work doesn’t even require a license in her state. I forgot the complete title, but it’s not about mental health (much like a physical therapist, respiratory therapist, etc.).
Can you please do the current season of MAFS? I've learned so much from you during this series!
I hope he does!! I think he’d love Woody and Amani. Especially Amani, she’s so direct while still being so welcoming and open. I love how she communicates with Woody AND all the other cast members SO much!! Although, he might not react too much to them since overall they’re doing well and he didn’t really cover Jessica and Austin who did well together.
32:03 i absolutely loved this journey with you! the first thing i do is watching your two uploads when i wake up. my partner and i have been going through some issues lately, it helped me immensely how to communicate my needs better before going into contempt and anger response. he has been learning about himself and how to take care of me in that moment too... this was absolutely delightful to watch it with you dr. kirk! thank you for all you do! love your huge compassionate heart, evidence driven mind and quirky sides!
I really adore hearing what you have to say about these couples. I feel as though I've grown as an individual by watching your takes. I'm way less judgmental of people's relationships that's for sure!
There is a show in Netflix called "Indian matchmaking". It's very different to my culture but I loved it. It's very interesting
yess!
Full literature review... you really came for them didn't you
This was fascinating to follow the whole way though, thanks for doing this!
I NEED Dr. Honda to watch Colt on 90 Day Fiancé
He is now, do you llloovvveee it?! I do!
Please start reviewing the latest series, MAFS is my absolute favourite and I really love your analysis :)
Derrick had a spark. He didn’t fall in love right away just like Austin and the other cast mates but he was attracted to Katie and did a lot of romantic things for her. Katie wanted him to immediately fall head over heels for her and didn’t even like that he wrote love poems as a teen or that he was kind and jovial to others. She wanted him to be 100% absorbed in her and that’s unrealistic.
"Jiminy Crickets!" 🤣❤️ So adorable!
i’ve loved this journey. you’ve taught me a lot, most of all being patient with others and understanding of what makes them unique.
plus i got a cool hoodie out of all of this. i deserve it!
thank you!
I actually think Derrick could have fallen in love with Katie. But she kept bringing up the issue and pressuring him to fall in love with her all the time. Everyone knows the more pressure u put on someone and constantly bringing it up, the opposite the effect has on them. I just don't understand why she needed him to fall in love so fast. What is the rush? Why does she need him to be in love with her by a certain date? I just don't understand that way of thinking. It's too much pressure and a high/unrealistic expectation, imo.
You are an amazing person Dr. kirk! You've helped alot of people by having this channel, myself included. I have hope that I can have healthier relationships and just having that knowledge alone is worth so much. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you so much for this series, I have loved hearing your opinions! I feel like I got a whole different show because I finally understood what might have caused Michael or Brandon to behave in such ways. I would love for you ti continue with MAFS! The new season is really interesting and I have already wondered what kind of things you have to say about it. If you want to watch an older season, I definitely recommend season 6! All the couples have many interesting dilemmas and situations, and I can't wait to hear your take on them (especially Ryan, Jephte, and Molly). It's not as clear-cut as this season, you have to wait to see which couples will make it (here it was pretty obvious since the honeymoon that J&A would stay together and at least B&T, Z&M and M&M will break up).
I have watched every single video you've done on Married at First Sight and I gotta tell you that I've LOVED them! You've influenced me to not just quickly judge someone, but to stop and ask "Hmmm. I wonder why they responded that way?", etc. We should all dig a little deeper into trying to understand "the why" instead of quick reaction or judgment. Thank you for all your insights and for sharing your compassionate & careful analytical thought process! ❤🙏
I’m here for the journey. You give these reality shows meaning. I can’t stomach them but otherwise. So thanks for keeping me plugged into pop culture and enlightening me at the same time!!
It's an honor to be on this journey with you Dr. Honda!
I thank you from the bottom of my heart..in this ; at times crazy life and unkind human nature, you bring wisdom without judgement and compassion without wishywashy .
Thank you I feel grateful for all the awareness and conversations..❤🙏🙏🏾👵
I love being on this journey with you. I’m learning so much about myself and as a result I’ve learned a lot about other peoples as well. In a way I take things way less personally for my own sake ❤️thank you for your content
I saw one show where one person wanted children and one didn’t, this show went ahead and matched them up anyway, knowing the differences in future desires.
I’ve been watching your videos for a while, since you started posting about love is blind.
Watching them pretty much every day while at work and quite nice to have extra ones to on Monday that you’ve made on the weekend.
I never comment on videos but you keep pressuring me to 😂
I very much enjoy watching them and just find your insight brilliant.
I particularly enjoyed the episode of a couple in therapy, maybe because it seems more real and seemingly less edited- please do more of these!
P.s maybe only once got bored of your videos but it’s bound to happen when I’m watching almost everything you post!!
Keep it up please, absolutely love it -katie
I LOVED THIS JOURNEY! I didn’t realize how many videos you made for this season.
Thank you for taking the time to watch MAFS. This season was one of my favs.
Again, thank you! 🎉
Wish Dr. Kirk would design one of these shows. I suspect that the success rate with adequate therapy (and an extensive preliminary screening process based in science) would far exceed 8%.
This has been so interesting and has made me think of how I interact in all my relationships either spouse, friend or family
Me too!
Same!
please review season 11 in new Orleans!
Yes, please do season 11! Or the new season that's happening now!
I would love to see you go back and watch other seasons! And of course we’ll need you to do the current season (11) too!
I loved your reactions to this show! I listened to this playlist every day this week while working or cleaning. Thank you for being such an amazing human being! ☺️
I have never watched or thought about watching this show til Dr. Kirk. I enjoyed this entertaining, enlightening and strange journey
They have 92% failure rate and people still sign up to these shows and then claim they hate cameras 🤦🏾♀️ ( Brandon). Why would anyone sign up to this show if not to be on TV, get paid and have a free trip. If they cared more about the couples than the ratings, they would allow the couples to date and choose their own future husband based on looks at least ( because many couples are just not into each other) and match based on common values and hobbies. This new season just proved that they don’t know how to match people. They chose a man that dated 49 girls in a month according to him and hit on the strippers before the wedding. They should’ve pulled him out and replace him with someone decent.
Some people are probably misjudging how exhausting it is to be filmed all the time. You don't know what being on a TV show is like until you are on a TV show. Right? It appears that Brandon thought he was gonna cope better with it than he did in the end.
Svenja M.
I agree, but he was dishonest when he accused Taylor of being there for the cameras when he did the same thing. He could’ve also quit the show without fighting with the production. I just find it annoying when people go there acting like they didn’t sign up to marry a complete stranger. The experts do a crappy job matching people, like this season, they matched a shy guy with an outgoing woman, a guy who can’t stand his wife making more with a woman who makes more than him. It’s like they don’t care about their values and hobbies. Or the couples tell them what they want to hear because they want to be on TV
Brandon definitely didnt do it only for the cameras. He went to see her outside of filming all the time, even when he couldnt stand doing normal filming time. To me it seemed like she was moreso there to promote her Instagram, etc than he was.
Also, could you react to Are you the one (s8)? It has the same matchmaking idea except that the people will have to identify their match from a big group. Season 8 is especially good because all the contestants are either bi- or pansexual.
Omf I'd love this
Thank you for doing this one. Quite an enhancement having your feedback. I've felt through the seasons that some actual couple's counseling from the beginning would have helped.
I’ve watched it all and would love for you to start watching the current season of this show!
Hi Dr. Honda, I really enjoyed your reaction series of Married at First Site. Your discussions prompted a lot of self reflection and improvement in my communication and understanding of others. Could you do another series on a different season of this show?
Thank you for all that you do, I love your videos!
I just finished watching all of your Mafs reaction videos even though I dont even watch that show. I just love your videos ❤️
I always appreciate the balanced perspective you offer. My ritual is watching it first and getting sucked into the editing, drama, et. al. and then watching your video reactions which remind me that everyone is human and the engrossing drama is usually caused by traumas. A fun challenge!
Would love your review on the My 600lb life therapy sessions!!!
Thank you Dr. Honda for sharing your experience, heart, and expertise!
I've been on this whole journey with you, Dr Kirk, and to answer your question I have agreed with (and learned lots listening to) your hypotheses. Never disagreed or been bored though! Immensely grateful that you have shared this work with us. It's been a fantastic experience.
I know I´m late but these shows aren´t a thing where I live besides me not watching any tv. This would just be way too painful to watch, but with your analysis I´ve just been watching all 42 videos at the last 3 nights. Very digestable and great advice, I really like all the perspectives you bring in. Especially when you phrase better ways of adressing things etc. helps a lot to grasp healthy communication in conflict situations when you´ve never learned how to handle these. Thank you!
I just finished this last video you made. I only watched this season of MAFS because of you and I'm so glad I did. I'm not sure I want to watch another season unless you make the content for it!
I have a recommendation! There’s a YT channel called “The Skin Deep” and they host (ex)couples, (estranged) family, friends, roommates, etc., to play a card game with prewritten personal questions by the staff for the participants to ask each other. It usually prompts deep conversations about their relationships. I think it’d be really cool if you checked it out to decided whether to commentate on it for the channel too! For example, their most popular video features a heavy conversation between a formerly incarcerated father and his daughter (Mia &Khalil) which I recommend watching with a box of tissues. But I think the channel posts lot of different relationship content that I hope you’d find interesting. Reacting to the video(s) that you find the most intriguing, would be so cool! Take care 🍻
Great recommendation!
@@rollerbaybee4230 Thank you :)
Baahaha I was over here like, "Who TF are Austin and Jessica?!" XD
IKR? The only people who did well this season XD He should have followed them too, to show to people "This is what you SHOULD be doing."
So well said regarding you're awareness, and knowledge.
So insightful and humble.
At 62 yrs old and with immense/intense trauma therapy for years 🙏🥵🤗..I needed someone just like yourself , with years of experience and self awareness, you have me able to work on my final stage of therapy the hardest part of letting go and adjusting my way of being in the world .
I thank you
Dr. Honda, I have enjoyed every journey you've taken us on. I've listed to all your videos on MAFS, 90 Day Fiance and Love is Blind as I follow all 3 of these shows. Also listed to all your Game of Thrones podcasts twice. Now I'm running out of material from you. Please start on the new season of MAFS and the 90 Day Fiance The Other Way episodes too. I'll be going through withdrawal if I don't listen to your voice all day at work. LOL
Also listened to most of your other podcasts too. Always so informative and interesting
Thank you for the journey, Dr. Honda. You've taught me a lot. Not just by reacting to this show (or the other shows), of course. I've binge watched so many videos on this channel, and I feel like they have helped me understand myself and people around me a little better. So thank you! :D
When you mentioned Love is Blind and I realized how many reality shows you'd covered since then! I enjoyed every bit of your commentary, and want to thank you for teaching me to be more differentiated! Like you said these videos shouldn't replace therapy, however I'll take what I can get 😉. Recently I'd binged Atypical on Netflix about a family that has a son with ASD. I absolutely love it and thought the conversation they have showed a lot of differenciation!😄love to hear your take on it, especially the potentially their relationship with the son's therapist! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Really enjoyed the journey with you! I’m not one to comment but these videos have really helped me in my own life so thank youuuuu Dr. Honda!
Like you said - what a journey! I have been so informed and entertained in watching this series with you! Can't wait for the next one!!!!!!!!
I looove this show so much. I have bingewatched/bingelistened roughly 60 hours of contect from you in the last 2-3 weeks. So helpful (and addictve) :)
We, your deserving listeners will follow you in whatever journey you want us to take. Love your content.
I've watched all of the Married at First Sight videos you made, even though I never watched the show. They've been really informative and made me think about the concept a lot more. I think the Western standpoint, matchmaking seems weird, but it's common place in a lot of communities. I do agree that it's not the matchmaking that is important, but the help you get after the fact that can save a marriage.
As for your question about whether you'd be a part of the show if it means you have a higher rate of divorce....I've been thinking about the question. While I may not ever do the show, I think if the opportunity came forward I might take it. I think it would provide a meaningful experience and you'd get to see yourself on TV and hear Dr. Honda react to how you deal with things lol. You'd also get everyone else commenting on you too, but I think it might help people who are looking for love see where they are going wrong or what they need to work on. As long as they don't have thin skin, since the internet can be a cruel place.
Hey, Dr. Honda I use your videos as replacements for therapy...
Jokes aside.
If there is a chance to find a long lasting partner even though it maybe to be hard to predict if it will work out. I will still take that chance.
Thank you so much for all your work and effort, this was quite a journey indeed! 😊
Married at First Sight in in Poland it is also very interesting. There are three pairs in our version and they do not know each other as in the American version. In the latest 4 seasons, 2 couples stays with each other. There were so many emotions that I was not sure that anyone would stay with each other. the program is recorded six months earlier, because if a couple resigns, they inform the 'backup' couple about the possibility of participating in the program.
Did he just say 2 weeks into the marriage she said we should be friends? Does that mean before decision day? I don't get the timeline.
I do not understand why dr honda is way too biased towards katie?
She cheated on him and derrek got hurt by her she called him names and all during the marriage. She only put him down. Why can't he be hurt and express his hurt?
She turned nasty towards the end.
@@lavinder11 yes, i understand why derrek was confrontational here, he ws hurt.
Most of his reviews he is on the woman side he does have a bias towards females.
@@innny8536 still he did call out Taylor & Nicole for their abusive behaviors, so it is not always, but he never pointed the negative behavior of Katie
gofychan You’re right he does point out the behavior when it’s obvious.
I have watched every episode and i just think its so fasinating to hear the perspective of a professional totally awesome!
I'm really glad you did this show. I loved hearing about Michael and his behaviors especially. I'd actually love to see you do season 9 of Married at First Sight simply because there are a three couples that I would honestly like to know more about, especially Iris and Keith.
I've enjoyed this journey a lot even though I'm not even watching that show. I started watching your video because one was recommended due to the facts that I watched Love Is Blind. Then I kept watching your videos. I always thought about seeing a therapist because lately I've been kind of "sad" and anxious. But your videos made me realize that I do need to see one for tons of reasons lol
One day when talking about breakups you said "The person in control doesn't get what they deserve because they have to always be the competent one instead of relaxing and occasionally letting the other person take care of them" And I was like "OOOOOhhh that's me!" And another time you were talking about people who doesn't "voice" their anger because as a kid they were not able to express it and I completely related. If as a kid I would have expressed my anger, my mom would have whooped my ass lol.
Anyway all this to say that I freakin love your channel. Take care of yourself Dr.Honda ;)
Dr. Kirk, please do more seasons of MAFS! I don’t watch the actual show but your takes are so helpful!
Please watch season 11 when it's finished! Also I'd love to hear your take on Marrying Millions.
It's another comptely fake show!!!
I watched all of them!!! Love hearing you, learning about communication, and relationships. Regards from Colombia 🙂
As a former Sociology major (have a degree in Soc it’s just been a while), I find Married at First Sight to be the most fasnicating of all the reality shows.. I’d love to see you do Season 11 eventually, bc the couples seem far more sincere than other recent seasons.
I really, really hope you do this with the new season of married at first sight as well. I think there is A LOT to speak on.
I have enjoyed our journey together! So interesting.
I am not happy about the amount of pain the couples endured. Agree wholeheartedly with you about having a legit Couples Therapist being an integral part of the couples’ experience after marriage. At least it could give them tools to succeed.
Would love this current season of married at first sight or season 9
I've watched this whole series with you and not once did I think you were boring - interesting things always come out of your face 😂😂
Truly enjoyed and gained a lot of knowledge from your insights on this season! Thank you for all you do :)
Twas a journey, but I agreed with almost all your commentary, therapy could go a long way for literally everyone and the fact that the experts are just not that involved is pretty much dooming some of these relationships to fail
Would you consider doing MAFS Australia? Series 4 and 5 have recently been aired in the UK
Thanks Dr. Kirk! I feel like I can channel how you would react to things after watching a lot of your videos.
Yes Dr. Honda coming through with the systematic review!
Thank you! I dont watch the show but watched all 42 of these clips so had the journey as well but not invested in the couples really but learnt alot especially how not to argue and be more functional.
I've watched every single episode and loved this whole series... do another!!!!!!!!!!
Dr. Honda, can you please watch the new season of MAFS? You won’t be disappointed! You will LOVE, Amelia and Bennett because they are equally so kind and quirky! You will love Woody and Amani as well! It’s an amazing season!
I loved these videos and hope you will do the current season too. 💜🙏
I watched all of the episodes. It was really fun to have your point of view. Please do videos about naked and afraid of love.
