The problem with Ramses is that he hides behind a progressive, even feminist, facade. In reality he’s shown us that he’s self centered and expects the women to meet his sexual needs at all times. When he realized Marissa couldn’t do that for him it didn’t work out, but instead of saying that he gave her a bunch of BS about “energy.”
I think love is blind. They are able to fall in love sight unseen. What this show has proven is that no relationship is solely based on looks. Living together and being with each other in person is what fucks everything up. Love has been proven to not be the most important thing for a relationship to stand strong.
Great recap all around. I think at some point J&J mentioned that they thought this was the best dating reality tv show because it showed couples getting in depth and showed the nuances of making the choice to marry someone but to me this is a commercialized and watered down version of married at first sight, and maybe that’s a show they do next! Married at first sight is basically the same concept except they don’t get to know each other in the beginning and they are matched by therapist and meet and get married at the altar and throughout we get to watch them live together with higher stakes cos they’re already married. And the show does a better job of catching the fights in the middle of the night, etc. And they also have confessional and they have professional therapists sit with them every now and then and it’s all filmed and it’s great relationship efforts put in but it’s still chaotic and dramatic. That’s my vote for next recap show!
Marissa said in an interview that she called her mom because her mom& sister were literally driving up there that day to help with stuff before the wedding.
Married at First Sight is the other “dating” site to consider. Obviously married immediately but it’s also pretty real in that you see their lives with phones and family and friends blah blah blah
The end of Ramses and Marissa was the conversation with her friends that he wouldn’t be ok with her ever going back into the military. That was a HUGE red flag if not an immediate deal breaker. She should have seen it as such and considered ending it with him bc of that. I think that was his reason but just didn’t want to say because she cant promise she wont change her mind one day. Divorced men are THE WORST haha! ❤
We've had a few unaired scenes over the years (who could forget the cutie chaos with Cole and Zanab in season 3), but saving footage with key context hasn't been a common theme in past reunions. They usually go back to what we saw to discuss further and plenty wasn't covered for on camera for multiple couples in season 7, but wishful thinking while we wait for Wednesday!
I love that you have a calendar that marks “the worst day of the year”. 😂😂
p.s. welcome to our new studio 🎊
I'm liking the new studio and the nods to U Up? Lore in the background 😁
Agree, but for some reason that exposed outlet behind Jordana drove me crazy.
Don’t believe anyone who says you love too big. You are just giving your big love to someone who loves too small.
Love you recaps of LIB!! I wish I found this when episodes were released in real time-- def keeping up for next season in Feb 💖

I really loved all the U Up commentary on LIB! J&J coming in with the factsss
Ramses and Marissa breaking up felt real vs everyone else saving their brand was spot on. Also Jared is self aware enough to see himself in Ramses 😂
Thank you for these videos! I look forward to know your impressions about this show ever since season 1. Great content love it
So Ramses just wants all of the fun and none of the responsibilites of being married. He needs to grow up.
Love isn't blind. We solved it

The "please read" email 😂 I feel seen
I was just happy to see Jared and his hat in the front row of Garrets wedding

Love the new studio!
He hesitated in the pods when she asked "do you think I'll be too much." Rude. Rude.
Great review wow💕
I literally watched the beginning and then scrolled to them saying I do bc I hate the wedding part
Same!

Holy ripped jeans Jared

I think he felt no sexual chemistry …when she said codom no bc, he checked out…him and his braids.

Would LOVE to see you guys over the ultimatum (also on Netflix). It’s so crazy good, especially the queer season!
I think they have more of the fights on camera but they save some of it for the reunion?!

Not feeling the new studio
Is this the new studio? I think maybe they are in another make-shift spot. I agree it looks like a closet
Leo is so likable now from his own ig, I am looking forward to seeing him at the reunion
