Having never watched this show, I was in the middle of writing about my own experiences given that I am now 70 years young and a widow for the last 12 years. I have had encounters that have been mostly disastrous including and old school acquaintance who wanted a 'friends with benefits'. That was now a few years ago as I wondered what in the hell I was thinking, when I had the best relationship for 33 years and no-one could come close to my standards and values. Which all led me to MAFS. Being a counsellor I was more interested in the psychological aspects of the show and those who were 'the experts'. I have many concerns about their practices and I hope that counselling has been offered and followed up for those who are exposed in such hideous situations. I also wonder about those who would be glued each week to the episodes but that's probably another story. Regards and good luck with your experiments.
