I was unsatisfied with the ending...I hoped they would at least do a recap of all of the women.

It was also a letdown to see who had made a connection--none of the women I considered relatively normal, of course. I know it's a small sampling but the message seems to be, guys don't want relatively normal, well-adjusted women!

CGUN, I thought of you when that one woman at the beginning had the date with the guy she hadn't seen a picture of...and she's like, never again, just like you ;-)!

I've only caught parts of last night's episode and one other, but that girl you mentioned that wouldn't go out with another guy without a picture....I couldn't stand her. The first guy was a weirdo, but even with the second guy she seemed like conceited creep .I didn't think she was any big deal either. The second guy could definitely done better.

I totally agree. Especially in NYC, that guy would have no trouble attracting tons of women and she was not even close to being in his league, in my opinion. If I were him, I would've let her pay half. I was surprised he paid the whole thing.

ITA! I'm glad to know that I wasn't the only one who thought she was being conceited.

All in all I was disappointed with the whole series. It just left you hanging. A re-cap of the 11 women would have been nice.

Saw this comment on another board this morning and thought it was very funny...and true:

Maryam's boyfriend looks like he doesn't understand half of what she says. Which, I guess, works for her.

That was the final? Really?

What do you all think of the rich guy getting back together with the blonde school teacher? Curious of your thoughts. I doubt it will get serious—trust your gut the first time why go back is my motto?

I think he'll see what he can get out of her, nookie-wise, and then dump her again. Did you get a load of the goggle outlines on his face, btw--a little overdoing it in the tanning bed, I think, LOL!

A little tidbit of info about Amy and the guy she was dating at the end...someone on this other board knows that guy, and she apparently broke up with him shortly after that was filmed, saying she didn't think he had "romantic intentions".

Did anyone else think that Mike (the guy that went out with the yoga teacher) was completely clueless when it comes to reading body/face clues???? She could not have looked more uninterested in him on that 3rd date, and yet he's all, "it's going great".

I was yelling at her (the yoga instructor) to not let him talk her into date #3, she knew she did not want to see him but totally fell for his manipulation. I laughed when she was in the bathroom saying "What was I thinking???" LOL.

He was totally clueless. The look on her face during dates #2 and #3 was hilarious.

Your right, maybe he wanted to see what he could get – didn’t make sense.

I was sad when baldie broke it off with that girl – they seemed to get along so great. He said “she had intimacy problems” wtf, did I miss something, ha?

Reminds me of the board when gals post “but we get along so great” and can’t figure out why the guy ended it – hey it’s happened to me and most of us. What is your theory on that scenario. I felt for her.

Mike was CLUELESS because of that scenario I had a dream yoga chickie and my ex were dating and I went away on an overnight trip with them – strange, ha!

I felt sorry for Sonja. She really did seem to like that one guy that ended up dumping her. Amy was even more obnoxious in this episode. I'd have liked to know more about the timeline. Some dates were in the freezing cold and snow and the next scene would have them in shirtsleeves.
