Friend zone!

That evil and so horrendous moment when all the work and effort you put into getting it in has failed because you my friend have officially entered the   AHHHHHH! It's bad sometimes isn't it? What is one to do when you are placed into the friend zone and you're left without any control over your relationship status with your crush? In Married At First Sight, it is oh so obvious that Jaclyn has put Ryan R. in the friend zone. But how is that possible? They're MARRIED! Well even though they've said they're "I do's" and" til death part us's," they are nowhere near being soul-mates, not yet anyway... I too have been quick to put my significant other into thee friend zone, like Jaclyn did. I actually did it with my now husband Jaime. It took me a good 2 years to release him from that deadly zone. But all things are worth waiting for, right babe?! Have you put someone in the friend zone? Why? Or better yet have you been pu

Am I supposed to be a "Mexican" wife?

So I'm Mexican American. My dad was born and raised in Mexico and made his way over to the U.S. as a young adult. My mom was born and raised in Southern California and both her parents were born and raised in Mexico. I am quite Mexican. And how does being Mexican play a part of me being a wife? My hubbie is Mexican American just like me. His family ties to Mexico almost mirror mine. How does being Mexican play a part in his hubbie duties?  In Married At First Sight , there are couples who have different religious beliefs and cultures. They were open minded and did not feel like having the same family background was essential.  This is such a beautiful thing! To begin a relationship there are many contributing factors to who your ideal type is. Race and culture sometimes play part in this. And then you add in your family's wishes on who they want this person to be and what family background they want them to have and you get a whole lot more to deal with t

I feel like I've known you FOREVER.

I feel this immense connection with him. I have to have known him from somewhere. But how we barely met a couple hours ago. But we have so much in common. He makes me laugh. He tells me I understand him. Wow did we just say the same thing at the same time?  Weird! Those are the words that so many of the participants in Married At First Sight gushed about to the cameras in last week's episode. Were those feelings sincere or were they just caught in the moment?  Can you truly feel like you've know someone for an eternity within days or hours or even minutes of actually meeting that person?  I feel like that is true to a certain extent, but then again I think that feeling of being caught in the moment is often intertwined with the feeling of knowing someone for an eternity which leads to feeling that immense connection. I think some people get caught up and just because they grew up watching the same cartoon they instantly feel like, "wow, they're the one it&#

Sex vs. Love

Do you prefer sex? Or making love? Or better yet baby making love? Is there really a difference between sex and making love? If so what is it? Ok don't answer that...Stop with your gross details! But seriously. What are the rules nowadays about when is the "right time" to have this type of intimacy with a partner. I would think that by the time you marry your partner both parties should be more than ready to engage in sexual activity the night of. But... What if you just got married to a stranger. You're now husband and wife, so should you consummate the marriage the first night?  In Married At FIrst Sight , 2 out of the 3 couples felt that instant physical chemistry the second they saw each other. Both Davina & Sean and Jessica & Ryan D. knew the specialists had done the job right matching their physical preferences when they saw each other.  There was no doubt the physical attraction was there. Even with the physical attraction being there h
