All great points!

Zaina said(on a podcast) she met JR in Bible study. Their relationship had started to going down hill when Jr left corporate for personal training and did not want her acknowledging their relationship on social media. Zaina’s friends said JR was a complete wall flower and barely spoke. I believe he may have been trying a persona for the show. I agree on Aria. She gave vibes of how could someone resist me or something. Her picker may be a bit broken so figuring out a just nice guy vs love bomber problematic guy could be hard for her.

That would definitely explain Zaina falling for him. Sounds like him becoming a jerk after hitting the gym could totally be what happened. She was already in love by the time he switched up. Yes yes yes to Aria. I think it was a shock to her that a man could be kind with no motive, lol.

I liked your perspective on Caleb and Aria. Emotional can be friendship. I do think Aria resented Caleb and Mariah's relationship and wanted them to break up and she swoop in. I also Mariah was gaslighted by Aria at the show.

[@girlmeetsscreen]

Yes! I think the insecurities Mariah had from their trial marriage came back when Aria started claiming she had receipts. Lol, who takes screenshots of likes on their story?

[@mlevell83]

agreed! The most they did was hold hands and do a beauty routine together.

Again, I LOVE this channel. You perspective is needed from the group-think amongst reaction review channels: Scotty AND Aria need therapy. IMO, they need individual therapy FIRST before ANY other relationship. Scotty was easily seen as problematic but Aria weak receipts on Caleb showed how she has issues trusting men and if you seemingly violate her trust then she will come for you. Scotty's behavior I attribute to him trying to control Aria. Not in a malicious way but in a "I will act good so that you will do/be what I need from you". I think it comes from him not healing from his perceived role in his father's passing. No matter what, I think they have done so much damage to their relationship that I don't think therapy will even work for them as a couple. Best they walk away and stay away (they no longer empathize with each other). Zaina, don't let a man tell you more than once that he doesn't want you (Even tho I think the relationship was fake) Sandy is the worst. Notice how she rejects Nick (and JR in some scenes) but pulls them back in almost immediately with words of affirmation. I think Sandy stays with problematic men to say she can fix them because it gives her some validation. Almost like she is comfortable in the chaos so much that she is willing to cause it to keep something to fix (which makes her feel important). Vanessa should have left and had every right to leave but the way she told her perspective came off disingenuous and unnecessary. Dave is fake and I don't trust him. Caleb didn't want Aria but they did get along. What Caleb did was the bare minimum for a healthy emotional man and Aria mistook the connection for a romantic one. Aria needs to pick better and heal and she will be ok. Again, Your channel is phenomenal. Keep it up

I love this entire comment! Lol, all my sentiments exactly! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! It truly means so much! 💞

[@Ima_Wake]

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Absolutely everything you said about Zaina and her delusion re the relationship with JR🎯

[@girlmeetsscreen]

I hope she doesn’t fall back into that web, lol.

[@roni-yah9342]

Wow I agree with you on all of the couples, that means you’re very smart. ..lol ! Good review! I especially agree about Aria…. But I will say the part about Nick and his addiction plus his bad behavior is a big NO for a woman to be living in an apartment with a strange man who is on drugs --hell to the NO NO NO. The show has to do better to vet people and do better than that because people can end up getting raped and killed and then everybody would’ve been saying oh no she shouldn’t of stayed. I’m just saying.

[@girlmeetsscreen]

Haha, glad you enjoyed the video! I 1000% agree on Vanessa not staying with Nick, very unsafe. I even thought Zaina staying with Scotty after that weird stare down was crazy, lol. What I felt weird about was her outing his personal issues to defend herself. I understand why she felt she needed to but it just still felt weird. But like I mentioned that just may be cause of my own connection to addiction. Thanks for watching!! ❤️

I know in previous seasons of the ultimatum all of the trial couples got to meet up before the proposals, but I wonder if they didn’t include them this time b/c there wasn’t much “juice” in the other trial couples…or if Zaira didn’t want to meet up w/ Scotty b/c he was such a jerk in their last days. Also on another channel they talked about Caleb & how an emotional connection isn’t the same as a romantic connection & I agree with that distinction.

[@girlmeetsscreen]

That definitely could be true, lol. Zaina and Scotty could’ve surely declined to meet. Glad we’re on the same page about the Caleb and Aria of it all, lol. Thanks for watching! 💚

[@jazmeregarrett2744]

I think he was attracted to her but he was not going to allow himself break his loyalty to Mariah.

[@girlmeetsscreen]

I could definitely see that. I also felt like him not leaving Mariah was pretty clear from the start so I didn't understand Aria's hostility towards Mariah throughout the show. Then wanting to be shocked she wouldn't want her talking to Caleb? Lol

[@mlevell83]

I think there is a difference between being attracted and finding someone attractive. I think he found her attractive but never wanted her because there was no real romantic chemistry between them.
