Love is Blind #3

Am I the only one who’s actually rooting for Jess and Jimmy to give it a try? 😅😂
Why though? He doesn’t want to be a stepdad, if Jess hadnt told him about her daughter I really think he would’ve chosen Jess. I’ve seen so many people saying they should give it a try and I just don’t get it, if anything, not wanting to be a stepdad is one of the most valid reasons a man could have in not wanting to be with someone

I think it was mature of him not to go into that situation blind though. It wouldn’t have been fair if he had reservations. In reality no one knows how they’re going to vibe with someone else’s children. He would’ve been more of an asshole to have chosen her knowing he was worried about the situation. He also hasn’t said at any point her child was the reason we are all just assuming. Him knowing her in person and on the outside world without the rushed proposal pressure could make things a lot different.

I’m confused because your first few sentences here are agreeing with me? He definitely did the right thing not choosing Jess but he would’ve picked her for sure if she didn’t have a child. So the fact it was such a big deal for him means it makes no sense that they’d get together on the outside because ultimately Jess still has a daughter. You can’t push kids on someone who doesn’t want to be a stepdad no matter whether they ‘vibe’ or not. Also I’m pretty sure he did say Jess having a child was an issue for him

I wasn’t agreeing or disagreeing with you. My point is getting engaged to someone when you have never met their child or seen that dynamic is very different to dating someone slowly in real life and getting to know them and their child before rushing into marriage unseen. It not working in that scenario on a show is very different to the outside world. I wouldn’t want to commit my life to someone blindly without knowing their children but dating someone with kids and taking it slow is very different. Taking a risk like that is one thing but he would’ve been committing blindly to her daughter too.
 
Didn't watch any of this today but enjoying the comments so far. I haven't seen any comments that any couple said yes.
AD and Clay, I was shocked by this. I do think Clay likes her but it's all too much and there is clearly a concern around finances. I'll be honest as somebody who is more practically minded than emotionally led, I got this. I would not get married to somebody who owed shed loads or had really bad credit. I feel like something happened off camera for him to bring this up without us having context.
crappy finances is a dealbreaker for me, but the funny thing is the Amber/Barnet precedent on LIB & they're still together (?) despite her crappy finances.

Yeah that was funny when she dropped what a bad position she was in 😆 didn’t he sell his house to pay her debt off?? I think they’ve likely made money from social media since though. I also think she was made to look a bit of a psycho but he was into the fact she openly wanted to be submissive and to be a stay at home wife/mum. A lot of men like that energy and will happily take care of someone with that attitude.
 
Am glad J and C didn’t get to the altar.
C is too insecure and if J is good pals with an ex it’s always gonna be hard for C. I wonder how long ago he was with the ex who is now a close pal. And why they broke up. Is the ex with a new fella? I don’t think J and Jess is a good match despite that she has a daughter or not. Am not sure Jess would tolerate him having a good pal he used to shag in his close friends circle.

AD and Clay isn’t a good match. I think AD was in love with being married. Rejection is always hard. I think Clay’s speech was deceptive. He doesn’t love AD and doesn’t want to be her hubby which is ok. Not sure why he had to elaborate. It’s good Tv I guess.
 
AD clay
If Clay really cared about AD and did not want to hurt her, and did want to realistically continue a relationship he could have told her beforehand like Jimmy. Jimmy surprisingly turned out to be the better human

Still not convinved Johnny just married for a shag with his weird pill obsession
 
Jimmy shouldn’t hook up with Jess. She has really sly eyes and comes across as a somatic narcissist. He’s probably a nice if somewhat dull bloke that needs less drama in his life.
Curious why you think that? I think she came across as lovely throughout the show. Just wondering did I miss something 😂
 
Taken from a FB group:

“….When Chelsey mentions Barbara and Jimmy in a love triangle, it seemed to me that she wasn’t including herself in the triangle rather implying there was more to the story with Jimmy and Barbara. This would also make the comment “deepest darkest secret” mean more than just sleeping with a friend and why Barbara’s future partners would care….”

It’s a big red flag for Jimmy. And if Barbara did cheat on a partner with Jimmy why are they such close pals. Jimmy wants to protect her? Barbara is more important to Jimmy than Chelsea that’s for sure.
