I missed that bit 😞 but then he can't help the way he is and that pressure cooker environment was never going to be good for him or whoever he was paired with.

Erica has been yelling at him for weeks and called him a "fucking idiot". It's double standards on what is acceptable from men and women. Erica is dragging in her past relationship issues which clearly has an effect but Jordan is seen as the problem. If I were him, I would have called it quits long ago.

I really hate that Erica keeps calling him a fucking idiot during arguments. You can argue with someone without resorting to nasty insults 😕

He’s never mentioned that he’s on the spectrum. He’s only said he has OCD.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I’m sure he said on social media he was

Well he can still go on the show if he's ND but adequate allowances should have been made for him. Jay is on the show with a visible disability no reason for Jordan not to be on it. He should have been matched with someone that understood ND. I think Erica has tried and made allowances for him tbf but that can be wearing and frustrating.
 
Ugh Erica and Jordan both shouting. Can't stand the pair of them. He's obviously on the spectrum and she's an aggressive loudmouth. I'm only surprised she didn't give him a Glasgow kiss.
It won't last.

NPC medieval villager and 'I lost loads of weight' were totally boring. Couldn't care less.

Tasha and Paul meh
Jay you can do better than that prick Luke.
Bianca you look like a twat now.

The only couple I'm rooting for strangely is Peggy and Georges. I hope it works out for them. I think they were made to keep going over the squats and all the 'my family' crap was manipulated by the production team.
What's the point of watching this show if you are continually shown lies which don't reflect the real feelings of the participants?

NPC Medieval Villager 💀☠💀
 
Everytime Peggy and Georges admitted they hadn't had sex yet Iaughed out loud, wish someone in the room had. Sex isn't everything and personally my more successful relationships have started with a bit of waiting, but 4 months after a show wedding and living together? And then recommitting to each other? Absolutely laughable. Imagine coming back and finding out their relationship is deemed more successful than yours because they essentially commited to a celibate friendzone.

you can just tell aswell . Having sex with Peggy would be like sleeping with a plank of wood ……personally you need to know the sex is good before you commit to someone . What if it’s terrible sex 😂😂😂

Just wanted to chip in with my thoughts about Jordan. I think he might have adhd and or autism (i have ADHD and maybe mild autistic traits). His emotional dysregulation, rejection sensitive dysphoria, love of routine, OCD, meltdowns when he loses routine, difficulty making and maintaining friendships, defensiveness etc are very familiar to me.
I totally understand why he would not be able to be honest with Erica, especially if she's a shouter. His mind will go blank, his emotions will engulf him, his RSD will be intolerable, he'll feel like he's going to lose her. As crazy as it might sound to a neurotypical person, it would be easier to lie. If someone starts screaming at you when your brain is different you literally can't think straight. You end up dropping yourself even further in the shit by getting tongue tied and confused.
I just think the producers have been lacking in a duty of care to Jordan (and Erica) if he is neurodiverse 😞

100% agree with this - he’s so obviously on the spectrum.
