    the ultimatum is definitely a show alright
    the ultimatum is a reality tv dating show on netflix that features 12 couples that swap partners for 3 weeks to fix their original relationship somehow, or get the answer to the question of if they should stay with their current partner, get a new one, or come out of the ultimatum single. netflix made the ultimatum with hosts nick lachay and vanessa lachay, who also host netflix's love is blind. i think the ultimatum should be nixed or changed completely for season 2. it's a no from me.

    Fun fact: the reason these actors have opaque/metal glasses during the group-talk scenes is so the editors can splice footage out of order and not have the audience clued in based on the drink-levels being off.

      That’s awesome about the glasses. I worked on a reality t.v. show, back when they were first catching on, so during production I had no idea how deceptive they could be … and then, when I actually watched the show as it aired, I saw *all the exterior footage we had shot around various Chicago neighborhoods,* for one leg of the show’s auditions, being recycled *over and over again* and presented to the audience as *the exteriors of the Seattle, Wisconsin, Portland, and a few other cities’ auditions,* just because the production crews for those other legs of the auditions had either not shot any b-roll or had shot inadequate b-roll. So if you ever watch an early 2000s show called _Are You Hot? The Search for America’s Sexiest People_ (hosted by Lorenzo Lamas), just know that nearly every exterior shot of every audition nationwide was actually shot around Chicago, but then presented as “Oh, here’s Seattle, and now here’s Portland,” those lazy @#$%&! producers…

    The thing about giving someone an ultimatum is: you'd better be prepared for either option you're giving the person. If you're going to tell someone "marry me or we have to break up," or "if you stay friends with that person then we can't be friends," or even "you clean that up or you're fired," you'd better be ready for the person to call your bluff.
    Ready to be single. Ready to lose a friend. Ready to be understaffed. Forcing someone to make a decision when *you* want them to can very often turn out not to be in your favor. You should never play games with that kind of thing.
    In my case, that kind of forced decision-making worked out great for me in the long run, but not so much for the other person. My ex gave me that marriage ultimatum. He loved me, and wanted to get married since we'd been together a long time and everyone (his mom, especially) told him we should hurry it up. I was not ready to be married, and may never be. Him telling me "either we get married or break up" made me realize that maybe I just didn't want to marry *him,* and that I'd been too afraid to tell him (or anyone, for that matter) because we'd been together for so long and got along so well and it would break his heart if I rejected him now. In the end I'm glad I made the decision I did. I do hope he finds his happiness, though. He's a wonderful person, even if our relationship wasn't meant to last.
    All this is to say is don't try to pressure people into doing something you want them to do, especially if you love/care about them. And *definitely* don't try to be sneaky about it in an ultimatum!

He was basically accusing me of being immature and taking it out on him that I was upset about my grandmother dying and I was like idk I feel like it’s reasonable to be emotional about that and hurt that all I asked you to do was just call me for my birthday, and you couldn’t even do that.
      So we were texting and I was already stressed out and dealing with a lot and he was like “you’re exhausting, I can’t handle this” and wanting to stop and I was like we can talk about it tomorrow and he was like, I don’t want to talk about it at all. Basically I was like I feel disrespected and if you’re not willing to acknowledge the way that I feel, even if you think it’s not your fault, just be there for me when I’m sad and feel hurt.
      And basically he was like not having it and really upset with me and started talking about how we was unsure about stuff. He was like we should talk tomorrow and it was pretty clear he just wanted time to think of a way to break up with me, like you know how you just get that vibe.
      So I just asked him straight up like are you thinking of breaking up with me, because if that’s something you’re going to do just get it over with now and don’t drag it out and make me wait until tomorrow. Because otherwise I would have been up all night anxious thinking about it, and I really just wanted to be with my family and grieve and not have to worry about that at that time.

      it’s worth it to mention for my story that my ex was not going through anything at the time, in fact she was apparently doing super great and seeing me after being fully long distance for 4 months was not very high on her list of priorities in her mind- actually when i had asked about potentially coming with her to all the parties she was getting invited to with her roommate (we are/were in college) her response was to say “sure that could be fun but i think we should have a conversation about boundaries soon.” and beyond that she had a history of a) not making me feel comfortable speaking to her about anything that hurt me/i had an issue with in our relationship and b) expecting me to be able to drop everything to talk to her about any issues SHE had in our relationship.
      it was extremely one-sided and this was the first time in our entire relationship i had been able to speak up and talk to her about something that was bothering me, and she immediately turned it into something much bigger than it was and only after realizing that i was genuinely upset and not backing down she pulled the “this is damaging my mental health and i’m not ending this conversation until you decide whether we are breaking up or not” card (among other toxic manipulative things she had started pulling throughout the conversation).
      i feel like our situations are actually quite similar apart from who ended up actually giving the ultimatum-both of us were wronged and put in an extremely unfair position where it felt like only our ex’s feelings mattered to them. and while i do feel bad that i ended up breaking up with her by text, she left me no choice with the ultimatum. but after that argument had been resolved in some way i was going to break up with her anyway based on what she said that day before the ultimatum on top of all the things that had happened prior-i was just trying to see if solving this problem and actually being together in person normally for a while would help, and if it didn’t, then have the decency to do it kindly and in person until she forced my hand.

    I actually thought what Colby did was manipulative. His whole image was that he wanted to basically claim Madlyn and although Madlyn is not perfect either he showed his true colors pretending to be in an "open-relationship". Which if it were the case that's the most diluted form of this staged show. All in all I think refusing to listen to Madlyns actual feelings towards him and picking up on cues their relationship might not have even been strong coming into this shows deceit. Who's gonna say no to a proposal to get married on the spot after she's riding the high of being proposed to on camera. The last line of the show is "My dad's gonna be so pissed 😭😭" lolol

    Wanting children is such a huge issue. If you want kids they’re hard work but it’s worth it: if you don’t want kids, it’s hard work and it would be the worst thing possible if you’re getting nothing out of it. You’d keep hating the situation in the back of your mind and it wouldn’t be right for the kids if they had a mum that deep down didn’t want them.

      Being a parent has nothing to do with getting something out of it. Parenthood is intended to be the most selfless act one can carry out. The issue is that there are a lot of people having children and who should never have done so simply because they are having children for all of the wrong reasons.

    • @houndofculann1793

      @@ydad8946 I disagree. "Getting something out of it" doesn't mean it has to be something measurable or that can be objectively said to be fulfilling to anyone else. Just getting to raise a kid and be their guardian might get you fulfillment of having a purpose. You get company, good company even for the rest of your life if you do your job well. You get to experience aspects of life through your children that you probably would not have gone through without them. You get to leave a legacy on a more personal level.
      At the same time, yes, it is a huge responsibility and doing it for selfish reasons only will probably get you and your children in a mess.
      On the contrary historically, having children really was an investment with expected profits for the vast majority of people. For the lower classes they were extra workers to help feed the entire family and take care of you when you get too old to manage it entirely by yourself. For the higher classes they were a means to keep the power they held within the family, and to gain more.

I get if you click, you click. I totally understand, my parents met and married within two months lol but that's not normal?

      I went to a language course abroad for three weeks when I was 15 and had a great time with the friends I made of the people on the same program. Then in the reunion party a month after the course I found out nobody of that group was actually interested in socialising with me, one of them even going "nah, I don't want the number of [the city I lived in instead of my name]" when I asked to change numbers because they'd had a different number during the course. I was pretty devastated and spent pretty much the next half a year in a kind of confusion of having great memories but looking through all of them in an entirely new light of what of it was genuine and what not.
      That also reignited my primary school anxiety of who I can trust when making friends in the first place. But at least it also caused me to be a lot better in choosing my friends in time so no complaints anymore.
