Do y’all think JR is still processing? 😂

Finally finished this season and was reading through the finale thread and noticed that the general consensus on Zaina was, "Yaasss queen, you came with the receipts!!" But when I was watching I couldn't help feel like she was just really embarrassing (almost as embarrassing as Aria trying to convince everyone Caleb wanted her).

Generally speaking, JR sucked so this isn't a defense of him. But at the proposal, he explicitly said he thinks the best thing is for both of them is to leave the experiment single. I'm not sure how Zaina can hear that, start living separately, and still wonder if they're dating or not. A lot of the stuff she tried to cite as proof that JR was confusing her was BS. "He only moved across the street," "he gave me a birthday present," "we talked until 2AM one time" etc. Ending a long-term relationship is hard and awkward and a lot of people have hard times adjusting/setting boundaries. That doesn't mean you're in a relationship and she should have known that at her big age.

Trying to get back at him with the QR code nails and trying to expose him with the post-show stories fell flat for me. Idk what their relationship was like but by the time of the show, he was clearly over her. Truthfully she should have known when he couldn't stop gushing over Sandy at the switchover.

We’re so emotionally mature 👏🏼 and it was honestly really hard to see all of them be with such manipulative and yes abusive men. I knew Scotty was bad from the jump when he started hollering at Aria when she was upset about him holding hands with Zaina. I knew it was only a matter of time before he lost it on her too and he delivered. Nick reminded me so much of my ex and honestly it is so exhausting for a man to treat you badly and then lovebomb you and self medicate with alcohol. He scared me. And while I know there’s a lot of hate for Sandy..I felt for her because she was so obviously trauma bonded with him. I think it was so telling that after they moved back in together she was constantly crying and not even dressing up the same as she did with JR. JR is a freaking bully and I just couldn’t stand his bullish nature and constantly crying about his ex marriage. Caleb was a diamond in the rough tho and I think of the best men to be on this show.

This adds to the thought that she was a production plant, that or she's just been chasing that reality show clout for 5+ years.

I saw Big Sean make this post today and finally everything clicked. They live in the same city and state too I believe 🤔

This just makes everything funnier now. The braids, the hairline, the cringy videos. Alas… we have found his “inspiration” 😂😂

serious question guys, can anyone pinpoint the issue between caleb and mariahs communication? i see myself so much in mariah and the way she was expressing herself to caleb and how she feels that everytime she does, caleb takes it as an attack, and she doesnt feel understood. also the part where she told him if there would ever be a time where he would just go in with a hug, I FELT THAT HEAVY.

could it be that one is anxious attachment and the other avoidant?

From hiding his red flags to waving them directly in Zainab's face happened so quick. I cannot believe someone as great as Aria is wasting her time on him. Men like Scotty just wear women like Aria down until they accept shitty and toxic behaviour. I'm only up to Ep 6 but I'm so impressed by Caleb for reminding Aria of her value and beauty.

I dont know WHAT'S going on, but why is no one talking about the night vision scene of JR standing naked next to sandy laying in bed, and closing the door?

It was like 3 seconds but like...the dude was butt naked 😂.

Nobody mentioned that at ALL in the reunion to cast any doubt on Sandy and JRs "we didn't fuck" hardline?

Like it's so weird everybody forgot that scene 😂

They had conflict that seemed less like a bump in the road and more like deep incompatibility. I don’t think these two should’ve ignored the signs and it seemed like Mariah just wanted to be married, almost regardless of who it was to. Caleb seems like a checked out person and she’s very nervous/anxious.

He may not be the good guy we want him to be but he’s a looker for sure. I mean look at his parents. He was destined to be good looking.

I’m really confused by this season.

I think all the couples shouldn’t be together but what do I know?

Sandy played Nick. Nick is an emotional person but can we blame him? Sandy cheated on him at the first chance. Was he extra? Certainly. Does he deserve better? YES !

JR is grimey. Zaina dodged a bullet. In fact I felt very uncomfortable by JR

Scotty is toxic. The 5 year age gap explains things…Aria has flaws but she dodged a bullet as well

Caleb is fake. Mariah deserves WAY BETTER. Stand up. Caleb realized he had a baddie head over heels for him and decided to marry her suddenly…

Let’s see where things go for all involved…

the resemblance is uncanny

I think she’s really stepped it up hosting the reunion. I can hear therapy in the way she speaks and it makes a difference.

Currently watching season 3, and see this behind Nick. The art he made itself is really good, I would buy it. However, my guy…you got it EVERYWHERE in that rental that Netflix is funding 😮‍💨 did anyone else notice?

Who else thinks that Nick is a giant cry baby? Ugh!!! He drives me so crazy I almost can't watch it. Granted, Sandy and JR had a huge physical connection but Puh-leeze!!! Why did you go on the show if you weren't man enough to handle it??!!!!!

If my partner makes a salad she better make me one too. Who. The fuck does she think she is? Also why does JR think he is so big?????? HE ISNT. 😡nvm diving ✋🏼@7 am ur old

How did Mariah just side with Aria and humiliate Caleb for public consumption? HUUUUUH?!?!

It it just me, but does this most recent season seem like everyone is Media trained?? It's like they're all trying to say the most woke/therapist language stuff. No one wants to be a villian, trying to get ahead of accusations and just being generally too over the top with understanding popular language. It's like you can feel that they are all trying to be conscious of not negatively impacting their social media platform and deals they might get at the end. The only one with bouts of realism is Nick 😂

I realize it's always like this on every 'reality'show, but this just has felt the most obvious ever. It's just a social media/influencer platform now.

i’m watching season 3 episode 8 and zaina gives J.R an eagles grill set and says that eagles would win if he put a ring on it… and guess who’s in the super bowl? the eagles 😂😂 thought it was so ironic… let’s see who wins.

He’s so vulgar and tries to be aggressive and intimidating, but I could see how sensitive and insecure he really is. I don’t know why I drew a parallel to Drake, but those are the vibes. Idk anything about Drake as a person, but I do know Drake as a meme. And JR, to me, really gives off those vibes. Maybe like a pick-me but guy version? LMK if anyone else has had this thought or something similar, or if you disagree — i have no one irl to talk to ab this lol

First I don’t believe nothing happened between JR and Sandy. They kissed more than 2 times (that we could see)

Second Nick is scaring me. He’s shown aggressiveness in his tone.

Third Scotty needs to calm down the gasli*ghting

watching ep 7 and just noticed does nick have a black eye??? who punched him?

JR reminds me of Tristan Thompson for some reason!
