Welcome to Season 3 of Single You the podcast. I started this podcast in August of 2020, thank you for every listen, every review, every DM & every share. You have helped me stay consistent.  

Now let's get into the tea of S16 E1 & E2 of the reality show "Married at first sight": Marry Me in Tennessee, Nashville. What can we learn from the behaviors of these 3 couples? What behaviors do we not want to execute in our own dating lives? 

Points were made;

  • 2:30 Are most married people miserable? 
  • 7:35 With dating and the way things are in 2023, do we still want to be married? 
  • 10:47 Why do we watch dating shows? These relationships never last.
  • 16:35 Why would one sign up to marry someone at first sight? 
  • 18:52 Couple 1; Domynique/the old soul & Mackinley/The introverted dreamer. Overall thoughts on them as a couple and red flags we see. 
  • 22:04 Is 25 is too young, in 2023 is too young to be married? 
  • 24:18 Should you be thinking of marriage if you live with your best friends parents? 
  • 29:30 Our prediction of Domynique & Mackinley, staying married or divorcing at the end of the show.

    • Statistic; "Married At First Sight" Has Matched 59 Couples So Far — 15 couples are living happily ever after since the cameras stopped rolling. That's 25.4% of staying married. LESS than finding someone to marry on your own. (source)

    • 30:05 Couple 2: Jasmine/Queen without a King & Airris//Reformed & ready for love. Overall thoughts on them as a couple and red flags we see. 
    • 33:10 How we feel about Airris' cousin.
    • 35:00 Is it a red flag if a man says "I have a lack of witnessing traditional relationships" and is sleeping with someone 2 weeks before you get married on MAFS a red flag?
    • 39:25 Our prediction of Jasmine & Airris, staying married or divorcing at the end of the show.
    • 41:28 Couple 3; Kirsten/Ms. Great Expectations & Shaquille/The Devout Workaholic. Overall thoughts on them as a couple and red flags we see. 
    • 45:35 Is Shaq masculine enough for Kirsten?
    • 49:15 It's her vain-ness for us. Yuck!
    • 50:04 Can you stay with someone for the long haul, if you aren't attracted to him?
    • 55:42 Relationships are NOT fantasy. 
    • 59:23 Our prediction of Kirsten & Shaq, staying married or divorcing at the end of the show.

      • The first two seasons of “Single You” have been about the journey into a toxic, abusive relationship and the journey out and into healing. They served a specific purpose and those shows will always be there.

      Now it’s time to pivot; I want to go on a journey of proving that a marriage can be healthy, people can be happy but it all depends on the truth we tell to ourselves and the work we do.

      I speak to the Black woman of faith who desires to be married. Who wants to date with intention.
