After last night’s Commitment Ceremony, fans were disappointed with the lack of drama and outbursts (minus Sam’s heartbreaking tears). Dramatic exits and “receipts” have been prominent themes throughout the last few weeks, but the latest episode of MAFS was relatively tame.
While Chris and Sam’s relationship took centre stage, fans are still full of curiosity about another couple and whether they make it through.
It seems like Danny and Bec, who have certainly had their ups and downs this season, are still chugging along, but fans aren’t convinced the pressure from the experts for Danny to reciprocate Bec’s feelings for him is fair.
From calling out her behaviour at the dinner party to awkwardly avoiding confrontation on the couch, fans are wondering whether Danny is on the show for Bec or just his image.
Is Bec ‘love bombing’ Danny?
After Bec told Danny and the world that she “loves” him, the groom seemed pretty blindsided and wasn’t the best at covering up his surprise.
While Bec confessed to the experts and other contestants that there was no pressure for Danny to reciprocate her feelings, her behaviour during Feedback Week said otherwise.
After breaking down crying when Danny said he could “maybe” see himself falling in love with her (ouch!), Danny cheered her up with post-it notes scattered around their apartment that listed what he likes about her.
Although, Danny was ultimately grilled by expert Mel during the Commitment Ceremony as he couldn’t put to words what calling Bec his girlfriend meant to him.
Many fans are criticising the show for forcing Danny to respond to Bec’s “love bombing.”
“It’s so obvious that the producers gave the ‘experts’ an agenda and made them push it incessantly,” one fan commented online.
“Like I don’t think anything was wrong with what he originally said,” one user commented, referring to Danny explaining that he asked Bec to be his girlfriend because it meant something to her. “What’s wrong is Bec saying “I love you” and love bombing him so early on the relationship, then getting pissy because he isn’t acting the way she wants him to act back.”
Danny is fed up with Bec’s behaviour
Although, Danny’s hesitation to go all in with Bec isn’t founded on nothing.
During the dinner party this week, on Wednesday, March 18, Danny finally stood up to Bec for sending those “horrible” texts about Alissa and David.
As Bec complained about having to apologise over and over, Danny refused to have sympathy. Rather, he argued that Bec wouldn’t have to apologise if she didn’t write those messages in the first place. Facts!
While fans definitely want drama on MAFS, they’re over the type of women vs. women drama we’re getting a lot of this season.
“I want toxicity, yes,” one fan admitted. “But with the couples themselves, not a bunch of b—-y’ women acting like they’re still in high school.”
It seems Danny and MAFS fans agree. However, for Danny, this lack of patience for drama may just push him to leave the experiment entirely.
