Married At First SightstarMadison Myers seems like the worst wifeof the season, although there’sstiff competition from Emem Obot,but maybe a villain edit is the reason why Madison seems like trouble. Just a glance at the combative MAFS queen Madison tells a story - her gaze is steely and unforgiving. She is a haughty woman who expects her partner to tick every single box.

If Allen Slovick doesn’t meet her sky-high expectations, she lets him know it.

Her husband,Married At First Sight’s Allen Slovick, is trying to navigate a romance with someone who looks down on him. He’s trudging a long, hard road, andhe should cut his losses. However, the scenes may be edited to make Madison look like every man’s worst nightmare. How does she mistreat her partner? It’s mostly about not accepting him in his natural state. Whether it’s his loud clothes or his lack of “gym rat” sex appeal, she lets him know that he doesn’t measure up. There’s really nothing worse a person can do to someone else in a relationship.

Could Producer Interference Be To Blame?

Married At First Sight’s Dr. Pia Holec, Pastor Cal Roberson and Dr. Pepper Schwartz aren’t known for their impressive success rate. In fact, the show’s overall track record is dismal. Over the seasons,only a dozen couples have made it work long-term. That means disappointment for most MAFS pairs - they’re destined to be single again before they know it. Allen is probably going to end up alone, and may even wonder why he took a leap of faith, agreeing to appear on a show where he might get hurt.

20 Best Reality TV Shows Right Now

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

The thing is, Allen may have beentricked byMAFSexperts- if Madison was chosen specifically because of her narcissistic traits (which definitely isn’t impossible, although it’s unethical), then he was behind the eight-ball from day one. Saddled with a partnerwhose callous and unemotional characteristics are waving red flags to anyone with even the most rudimentary knowledge of psychology, what chance did he have? None at all.

Using astrology to match couples would probably be smarter, as the current system produces so many train wreck matches. Any kind of magical thinking might help. The experts might also want to consider picking names out of a hat. Anything would be better than the current setup, a sure-fire recipe for tormented days and sleepless nights.

This show, in essence, is not about creating happy matches.It’s about creating onscreen fireworks. This is why the experts may coyly talk about the methods that they use to create “fairytale” duos, while underhandedly matching the most incompatible people ever.

Yes, that would be devious, but if the goal is ratings, maybe there is an element of trickery here.

Matching a rude, stubborn and condescending person with a gentle and sensitive partner is something that the MAFS experts have done more than once - in fact, it seems to be their formula.It’s not an algorithm for happiness, but for despair.However, that romantic misery really pops onscreen.

Madison Is A True Villain

It’s Just That The Experts Should Have Known That

In themafslifetimeclip shown above, via Instagram, the couple are just not in tune. If love is a dance, Madison’s stepping on her partner’s toes. She’s a buzzkill, always glaring and acting superior. Her wet blanket demeanor is a sure sign that she’s not staying in her marriage for very long. Allen isn’t really being respected in this quickie marriage, and he needs to get out of this mess. As per a Reddit thread started byDangerous-Bread-871,

David has been put down from day one. No Man would put up with her bs. She wants a rich Ken doll. He has bent over backward to please her. . I hate how she acts. I raised 3 sons. I told them to be respectful and kind to women, but If I saw a woman ever treating them like David. I tell them to get out of the relationship . She is abusive and fake. I can’t stand her. She isn’t a poor thing. She uses everything to put him down . Good I hope he has 50 girlfriends. She isn’t good enough for him

He can’t enjoy himself - everything he does is under scrutiny. Whether he’s trying to have fun by dancing at a wedding or wearing broccoli print underwear to liven things up, he’s sure to get some side-eye - derision is always on the menu. The only nice thing this woman can say is that he tries hard to make the relationship work.The unspoken part of that sentence is that she doesn’t try at all.

Also, Madison may be a part of aMAFScheating scandal. How much worse can it get? Allen is really going through the wringer, and for what? Someone who, in terms of kindness, communication and chemistry, is not worth having.

The issue here isAllen is not Madison’s type. He is basically hitting a tennis ball over the net, but he has no one on the other side, waiting to return it. She’s going through the motions, but it’s just a farce. She doesn’t really want to connect.

So, the tennis balls he lobs her way just fall and then roll away.

In a real relationship, someone will return his shots. They will want to. That’s why Madison is truly awful, rather than the victim of a villain edit. However, that doesn’t absolve theMarried At First Sightexperts of blame.
