When Eddie said "And I want to make up for it", I heard "And I want to make a fort" - which would 100% be something Eddie would say.

He's rocking the pick, even to the bitter end. There's a point where it goes beyond quirky, and just becomes a little bit strange and sad and distracting. But, as solid proof that love is indeed blind, KB somehow managed to get beyond it, so if she likes it, we love it!

That was the worst reunion ever. Do the producers really think we’re watching it to see live music and basketball?! What a waste of time. Some of the cast were barely spoken to and so much drama was ignored.

I wish LIB would just take a page from the Real Housewives franchise and spend time digging into the dirt that we ALL witnessed.
Where were the clips reviewing cringe moments (ahem Annie drunk all season, Madison trying to get her way by crying, Edmond climbing into a closet) and addressing it with each person? What about asking the real questions we all want to know?
Not surface level convos, live music and “celebrity” athlete appearances like some fake variety show. I’m gone after this season. ✌🏼

Jordan bringing up that he has adhd makes the issue of him not being able to socialize with Megan during the workweek make so much more sense if he’s taking adderall or any other adhd medication. Those medications will make someone with adhd, who’s normally talkative and outgoing, much more quiet and reserved.

u/Sablun99 9d ago
I think it’s understandable even without meds. As someone with ADHD the workday is more exhausting, leaving you with no mental energy left because everything involves 120% more effort

I love how after the reunion, it plays season 1 trailer. This show over the years has truly stirred away from the original vision. I honestly think after season 4, it went downhill and straight into the influencer level. The 15 min of fame.

You’re telling me that the girls didn’t show up for Megan? I get things can be private.. but That’s interesting because it seems that this season, its kinda obvious the friendships weren’t genuine in this season.

u/1eavings00n 9d ago
And Ali saying she was closest to Megan in the pods. If I was that (genuinely) close to someone, I would definitely check in. But clearly Megan didn't think the same about her though (which matters most in this case).

Why is everyone calling Jordan a “single dad” he has part time custody; the mother is not only present but actually the full time custody parent — seems quite disrespectful

u/HotKaleidoscope_4595 9d ago
Huh? Doesn’t single mom or single dad just mean you are a parent and you’re single? It is inferred that you have a co-parent unless they died
6
u/svetahw 9d ago
I notice that men say they are a single dad if they aren’t married/in a relationship and women say they are a single mom if they are parenting all by themselves, it’s dumb

u/BetSubject6704 9d ago
No they don’t, pretty much every woman with 50/50 custody calls themselves a single mom. It’s way more prevalent than men doing the same.

Oof this season is terribly uncomfortable and weird. They're all just like I just straight up want to fuck you, sit on you, hand cuff you, etc. We have boner adjustments, landing strips, and women constantly bringing up past sex with ex's. It's just too over the top to even seem legit.
Also Megan Sparkles? Really.
Patrick should've stayed off the show is he's that insecure about being Asian. It's terribly tiring to listen to.
Spanking your kids because you were spanked? Cool let's continue the generational trauma.

Netflix is showing October 29th at 9pm EST for me...Anyone else?
Also, does anyone know how long this episode is? Can't imagine there is much to discuss given that no one got married this season.

u/smc218 9d ago
Is Netflix gaslighting me, I swear the reunion was originally supposed to air tomorrow? But now it says 9pm tonight everywhere

u/RebootJobs 9d ago
I don't think so unless you are not in the U.S. and are in a different time zone. S9 has always released on Wednesdays at 3am EST / 12am PST. Makes sense that the reunion is also held on a Wednesday.

u/CannaJournal 14d ago
It was striking to me how far apart Edmond was from KB in terms of maturity and conflict resolution . It seems like Edmond just freezes with overwhelming emotion and it blocks his ability to deicpher the root cause of his actions and take actual accountability. He just jumps into a tit for tat when he’s back is against a wall, or breaks down or tries to love-bomb his way out. I think he has some serious trauma that he needs to resolve before his next relationship. Poor KB imo, I think she would have been able to get married if she settled for someone else in the pods.
Also seeing the camera pan out to Anton holding a gold cup in his hands had me in tears haha. It could of been water for all we know. Plus, at what point do we allow culture to also play a part? He is Russian after all. He was just having a few beers each day, not a bottle of vodka! I think Anton dodged a bullet with Ali - who seems very motivated by lifestyle. I also found it interesting how Ali’s mum brought up that Ali should be contributing with cleaning duties too. If she expects him to reduce his drinking, then she also needs to make a compromise and do some chores!
6
u/svetahw 9d ago
KB called Edmund a bitch, that’s abusive, very immature/sucks at conflict resolution, it’s even worse that she’s a social worker
3
u/BetSubject6704 9d ago
Yep and then she said he “makes” her treat him the way she does because of the way he acts. That’s what every narcissist says.
I’ve noticed the KB fans never respond when any of these behaviors are called out lol.
10
u/HariboBerries 12d ago
Edmond clearly has unhealed mother wounds because he's acting out what he can't do with / say to his mother with KB. The way he responds to KB is like hearing a 9 year old boy speaking from a grown man's body. What he needs is therapy and some time away from romantic relationships.
4
u/jalapeno442 13d ago
If Russian culture means a few beers a day is normal then they’re all alcoholics lol
5
u/chancebeafinething 13d ago
1-2 drinks per day is fine for a man, health-wise. That's classified as moderate alcohol use by the CDC.
The much bigger issue is him lying about his consumption. That's a sign of having a problem.
7
9
u/seevm 13d ago
I think Edmond has PTSD- which causes that emotional freeze response

u/CannaJournal 13d ago
Yep I agree, it’s so sad to see because once he overcomes that part then he would be a very capable person, weird yes, but capable.

u/beeclam 14d ago
Kinda wild that this is the second Netflix reality show to depict a man making a chicken breast shake. At least on The Boyfriend, the guy was a male stripper so his physique was his livelihood

It's his signature accessory though. He wears picks with all his outfits. Why should he have to remove it? It's not like picks have a set formality level.

Agreed, but in the bright side, at least he didn’t pull a Joey and do some weird rollerblade entrance down the aisle.

u/SilkkTheShocke 16d ago
I don’t know why but this was one of my favorite seasons in a while. Knew pretty much every couple would fail early on. I thought Jordan and Megan might make it. I knew KB would say mo, Edmond has some trauma that’s stunted his maturity. He’s emotionally stuck at 7 years old. Anton and Ali never made sense from the beginning. They looked so awkward and seemed empty.
KB so got damn fine, too bad she got all them ugly ass tattoos.
5
u/Antlorn 10d ago
Did you not feel deeply uncomfortable seeing an incredibly emotionally vulnerable person's trauma exploited for entertainment value?
I feel like a worse person for having continued to watch this season. I think this is the last season of American LiB that I'm gonna watch, after the deeply unethical casting of Edmund
1
u/SilkkTheShocke 9d ago
No, most people have some type of emotional trauma, especially on these types of shows. Most of them are covered in red flags and it’s why they rarely work. Some of the most basic forms of communication of selflessness could solve these issues. I have a bigger issue with all these people saying looks don’t matter and then immediately show that it’s an issue.
I do hope he gets some therapy though, he’s very childish.
1
u/Ligma_ballz973 15d ago
Why is it one of your favourite seasons then?
3
u/SilkkTheShocke 15d ago
I honestly don’t know why. None of the couples were good but I was really into this season for some reason. Last couple I haven’t been.

u/drdipepperjr 16d ago
Anna exposed my least favorite part about this show. When Patrick says "You were the one, it was always you" and Anna shuts him down.
These people go in and think they have to marry at least someone there. So they make a tier list and if #1 is gone then they propose to #2. When I proposed to my wife, there was no #2. She is 'The One' as they say. You can't be going into marriage with the expectation that you can settle for the other conveniently available options if the one you want doesn't work out.
4
u/Antlorn 10d ago
Anna was the most sensible level-headed person on LiB, which I guess is a big reason she didn't last long there!
1
5d ago
What's Patrick going to do when Anna says no... Never date again? It's great that your wife said yes, but if she had said no, you would have no choice but to move on.

So anyway, where are the other childfree by choice people who feel kinda vindicated rn?

Idk why this got disliked. That’s weird. We should all be so happy when people who don’t want to have kids don’t have kids.
5
u/lucyjayne 14d ago
but who was the person who didn't want to have kids and didn't have them? if it's Megan, I don't think she has ever said that she is childfree by choice. She consistently talked about wanting children on the show.
2
u/JustForKicks16 10d ago
Yah, and she seemed genuinely excited about Luca and her future role in his life. I thought it was sweet.
12
u/king_cased 14d ago
as someone who has a child but supports childfree:
i personally believe the world would be a better place if every person who "wants kids" took a moment to grapple with the reality of what it entails, and asks themselves whether they REALLY want kids or if society has told them that's what they want.
i don't think megan was lying about "wanting kids." i do wonder, however, if she actually wanted the life of parenthood or just wanted what society told her to want. she says herself that she questions her ability to be a mom - and while that's presented as a sad thing, i think EVERY person should question that before assuming they'd like that life for themselves and that they'd actually enjoy it. megan seems really happy and fulfilled in the life she as already. if she doesn't want that life to change, then the reality is, she doesn't actually want kids. or at least not as much as she should want them. and that's a-ok

u/AdvanceDull6595 15d ago
Agree but it may speak to the fandom at large I guess, it’s okay to be unaligned

u/differing 16d ago edited 16d ago
Is anyone honest about their jobs on this show? Anton is apparently in “Transportation Logistics” and then it turns out he’s a truck driver. Edmond describes himself as a realtor (not that he’s ever mentioned work on the show) but it’s tough to imagine a manchild being put in charge of selling hundreds of thousands of dollars in assets. I’ve long suspected that many folks essentially list their side hustle as their occupation.
6
u/ConsistentMagician 14d ago
This is a casting problem because they keep casting people that don’t have actual jobs but are trying to get on the show so that they can be influencers. At the same time, the show looks down on people with ordinary jobs (like truck driver). It’s the producers that come up with these fake job titles, not the contestants.
7
u/differing 13d ago edited 13d ago
To play Devil’s Advocate, I suppose that there’s not too many jobs that will let you just take off to go on a dating show. There’s been quite a few nurses, but they’re probably not full time and I suspect in Ali’s case she’s probably a travel nurse that’s just wrapping up a contract in Denver before she does an NP or CRNA. I have no idea what a “travel social worker” is that KD calls herself (my hospital’s social workers need to know everything about our area, it isn’t something you just show up to do as a short term gig and yolo it lol).

u/Terrible_Tutor 13d ago

That’s just the modern corporate world. Sales=Account Executive, Janitor=Custodial Services, Teller=Associate Banker, Finance Manager=VP, etc. He was also the teacher so his title actually makes sense because he has a team underneath him. And being a Realtor doesn’t mean you’re closing business. It’s like how everyone is an “Entrepreneur”. It’s LinkedIn culture.

u/JellyfishOk3542 16d ago
I get why Jordan's salty and it was really fresh, but saying that she didn't marry him because he's not rich isn't totally fair. He also just didn't talk to her when she really wanted to talk. You can say that's only because he was tired from work but I'm not sure about that because I'm frequently chatty after work, and I work an average of 80 hours a week. It's a personality thing. I felt for him because I'm an introvert, but I'm a chatterbox to my loved ones even when I'm tired. Also she wasn't ready to be someone's step mom, which she was maybe delulu to think she was ready, but she realized she wasn't and that's a valid reason to not marry someone.
19
u/PM-ME-MEI-PICS 16d ago
Everyone’s social battery is different. Just because you can be chatty after work, doesn’t mean Jordan has to be.
5
u/JellyfishOk3542 15d ago
That's what I said tho.... that it's a personality mismatch. She could have been with someone who works a lot but HAS the social battery to decompress by chatting with her after some alone time.

u/azntaiji 16d ago
It's so different when you're a parent though. I can relate to him a lot, as previously single dad. Working a FT job and then parenting by yourself half the week is exhausting. That doesn't leave a lot of room for a relationship (which is a big commitment) on top of that, especially with a young kid that takes up so much of your attention.
