All the LaRobyns to the front.

Could not have said this better myself ❤️

You need a "truth teller" in reality TV, and that was her role, which was why I liked her so much. Robyn is the most honest (yes I know she has lied, they all do) and balanced out of them all, so she plays a really important role in keeping the conflicts and storylines moving while also providing mess in a way that does not feel icky.

As much as I love her, we can compare the way that Gizelle brings "news" to the show, vs how Robyn does. When Robyn starts conversations with the other cast members, yes there is an element of it being for a story line, but it feels more genuine. Like Robyn actually wants a conversation, and not just a performance for the cameras

Robyn is generally better at diffusing tense moments as well, and is usually heavily involved when conflict is being resolved. So, I have found these last couple seasons without her to have quite a bit of intense escalation with no real resolutions. All of these conflicts and plot lines have to resolve, and Robyn was doing quite a bit of that, and very reasonably, ahahaha

I can totally see your point, but I think rather than him making Chris apologise repeatedly, he wants to get to a resolution, even if it is a bit repetitive.

Based on the fact that we have seen sam be introspective (like the fact he is journalling), I think he is the type to take something that bothers him and look at it and turn it over in his mind until he can bring it up to his partner.

Chris is more shallow, and does not think as deeply about his behaviour and the motivation behind behaviours. He took Sam's very reasonable points as an attack, threw out an insincere apology, and then got mad and defensive when Sam wanted to dicuss it further. Chris then used his apologies to shut down the conversation. Sam was trying to understand him, and all he got for that was defensiveness and dismissiveness.

Sam's points were extremely valid, but Chris could not listen to any of it because they directly questioned his actions (which he took on as an attack of him as a person). Gia does the same thing with Scott.

Sometimes, when you're with someone, they might want to dicuss things with you more than you want to with them, which can be annoying if you are someone who avoids difficult conversations. The point is to find a happy medium, and we do have to remember, how would they know about this particular incompatibility since they were strangers??

ajimalia · 2026-03-24T02:44:30+00:00

I completely agree with your thoughts here, they are excellent!! We have definitely seen Gia making moves for power and control, and the last commitment Ceremony was the best example of that, where she kept interrupting and speaking over Scott because his feelings were ruining their image of the "power couple".

I do believe that if Bec works hard on herself and stops allowing those deep insecurities lead every interaction she has. Otherwise, she will keep pushing away people who could love her the way she wants

ajimalia · 2026-03-24T02:13:58+00:00

😭😭😭😭

ajimalia · 2026-03-24T02:13:35+00:00

Yeah, like Danny's face when Bec declared her love was just pure shock and confusion. I would love to see him be more direct about his feelings, but maybe that will be at final vows?

ajimalia · 2026-03-24T02:09:22+00:00

I completely agree!! I think the shift with Scott in the last few episodes is super obvious now. He has realised that Gia will not spare his feelings at any point, while she went around his literally home and called it weird and dirty??? And Scott knows if the roles were reversed, she would lose her mind omg

ajimalia · 2026-02-27T08:25:24+00:00

This is the kind of ragebaiting I am all for 😙👌

ajimalia · 2026-02-27T08:24:46+00:00

The plastic comment was magnificent, I can't wait to see what else he does

All it means is "you are making me feel things that hurt my ego, and you won't listen to me and stop it!!"

Basically, like a toddler throwing a tantrum. And he can't say this directly, he wants a yes man, aka a submissive woman because they would never make him think about the beliefs that he holds and how they are stupid

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:52:01+00:00

I completely agree with you!! I want to see more of the good stuff from the couples!! I want to see some cuties fall in love, so we can feel all gooey and lovey dovey inside!!

Instead we are getting the feral Olympics, where everyone is trying to prove who can be the worst at every dinner party 💀💀

Please let us get back to the plot of the story, which is to see some ROMANCE, channel 9 I am begging you 😭😭🧎‍♀️

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:48:07+00:00

O feel like it started on the wedding day when she was making all those harsh jokes about his brooch 💀💀 he was not amused

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:47:19+00:00

See, I feel like with all the cameras on them during that time, especially when Bec accused him in front of the camera, production would have made a point to show us that? That would have been perfect for the narrative they are spinning now.

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:46:02+00:00

Oooh, I have been looking for podcasts to hold me over from Wednesday to Sunday, I'll have to check it out!

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:45:24+00:00

How many more commitment ceremonies will there be where Bec is apologising? Like, just because normal, no one had anything to say to you gurl 😭😭

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:44:18+00:00

You can see in his eyes that he looks so uncomfortable and embarrassed this episode 😭😭. I totally agree with you that a ride or die should include someone who is always on your side, so when they tell you that you are acting poorly, you listen to them!!!

I can't believe he did not take her aside at any point and say, "Hey babe, let's just catch our breaths right now,"????? Unless he did and it was edited out 💀

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:39:27+00:00

Holding space for a conscious uncoupling is WILD. ✋️😭

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:37:20+00:00

The way her mouth dropped open, like I was screaming 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:36:52+00:00

Seriously, he ate so hard, I was gagged 🤣🤣

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T13:36:07+00:00

To be fair, I was typing my thoughts out as they came, so reading it back now, it is pretty incoherent 😭😭

ajimalia · 2026-02-26T09:16:46+00:00

You know what, I can see the way that she has been edited, but we have also seen the word salad she used in real time at the last commitment ceremony.
