These People Are Driving Me NUTS - Love is Blind Season 5 Episodes 8 & 9 RECAP 

What are we thinking for the finale? I'm going with Milton + Lydia yes but Stacy saying no to Izzy.

I feel like izzy and stacy have so little in common that the only thing that can agree on is hating johnie.

This is the most depressing season of Love is Blind ever. It's mean-spirited in how bad it is. I thought I'd left all this drama behind after junior high school.

Uche 100% became a lawyer just because he heard you got to argue a lot.

I love how all this crazy stuff keeps happening around Milton and he just sits there with his over it Gen Z energy like “okay cool. Thanks for the info.” 😂 iconic

Izzy is sketchy... he didn't tell Stacy about his debt, BUT TOLD JOHNNIE!!!! 🤣

Believe it or not the ONLY person I enjoy is Milton. Is he immature? Sure, he’s 24 years old. He has a lot of life to live HOWEVER he’s the only people that seems to genuinely himself. He’s not putting on a show. He’s extremely honest and forward with Lydia. He doesn’t allow himself to be bullied either and you have to respect that, unlike Izzy.

I feel like Izzy is still projecting some unresolved Johnie feelings onto everybody, otherwise, he should be able to let that go and be happy for them!

Love is Blind producers really said "What if we make a season where everybody sucks?"

Dude- Stacy and Izzy are super mean drunks, and Uche makes crazy Lydia actually look sane because of how overt his narcissism is. Also, nobody there deserves Chris. As even a friend. He's too good for them all.

Ssssoooo Johnie was telling the truth about Izzy bad credit and debt. Stacy is looking foolish now for calling Johnie "sketchy" Looks like Izzy shared more with her than Stacy 🤭

Stacy and Izzy are really making me like Milton and Lydia

Uche tryna get revenge for his ruined relationship

Unfortunately, Izzy and Stacy wont work because Stacy would never respect him. She clearly comes from money and lives a specific lifestyle that Izzy simply can't provide. Top three reasons why marriages fail is because of lack of finances.

They are the perfect example of people wanting to get married for the idea of marriage not because you are ready to get married. When Stacey asked johnnie "why hasn't chris proposed to you yet" I thought she is so childish.

Stacy doesn't want to admit that she listened to Johnnie go on and on about Izzy in the pods and lied by omission. She chose not to say that she was into him as some weird pick me strategy. Stacy won the paper cups and paper plates, barely employed, low credit score, lost & found drawer, 50/50 dinners, f-boy prize. NOW she's mad at Johnnie for not saving her from Izzy???!!! 😅

all i know is that this year the reunion will be actually good because the drama this season is giving

It's kinda funny that Izzy chose Stacey thinking she'd be the chill, fun one. But they actually have lots of differences and fights.

“This isn’t the time to understand each other” tells you all you need to know about Stacey. No one can have a convo unless you’re 100% team Stacey at all times

Meanwhile JP is removing make up from girls with a US flag 😅

Stacy and Izzy were f*cked up for ganging up on Johnie. Even if Johnie acted like a snake, confront her one and one and then SQUASH IT like adults! Stop bringing her up over and over again and let her live her life.

These people are exhausting but Stacey is honestly the most exhausting.

The only thing Stacey and Izzy have in common is the fact that they like to talk sh!t about jonnie. Whenever they have to talk about anything else they have fight

Milton is embarrassed of Lydia. I'm sure some part of him likes her, but the way he acts so disconnected from her around his family, how he's constantly correcting her english, & him saying she's overly emotional... I actually felt bad for Lydia. The fact that he made that happen is crazy bc I don't particularly like her but damn. Izzy & Stacy going in on Johnie is disgusting. If they don't like her then don't interact with her? It just felt so mean spirited, gross, & immature for no reason. I despise both of them but Stacy was right to call out Izzy on complementing her in comparison to Johnie. Why does another woman need to be present for you to say "I'm so happy I chose you" to your fiancée? I hope I never see Uche again. How does this man even get women to be interested in him? I would be walking out the moment he says a word. So disrespectful, talks down to women, minimizes people's feelings, lacks empathy, holier than thou attitude, so judgemental, attacks people using the "calm" voice so he can call them irrational & "win" when the other person reacts to his hurtful comments. Disgusting. This season has made me so angry so many times. I'm so happy it's ending soon.

Milton’s family is like interviewing for a federal job. Lol

Someone needs to give Stacy a makeup tutorial 😂

I'm sorry, I still don't understand why Izzy and Stacy hate Johnnie so much. I'm still not getting it

My daughter is in her mid 30’s trying to date in Houston. I can see why it’s so difficult when I see this mess.

Im sorry Izzy being 3,500 in dept…doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Like I get wanting to be careful but not even having a credit card to buy gas because of that is a little sketchy. I think he’s lying and it’s much higher.

Stacy is really disgusting and immature how she handles things. I wasnt a fan of jonnie at first but after watching how gross izzy and stacy acted.. im 100% for jonnie. I think she ended up with the right person in the end. And they are so cute together. Not once did she deny that she may have handled things wrong. Thats a weird azz sitch to be in. As for stacy and izzy ... ew they arent getting married 😂 if they do its for the show and will never last. And lydia is a stage 5 clinger. And marzella or whatever her name is has a degree from john hopkins and works in syberia. Thats all i gathered . Youre welcome.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I'm actually enjoying the drama😂😂

Stacy reminds me of someone I went to high school with. They look so similar and give off the same vibe. That is NOT a good memory.

Stacey's Dad: "Sometimes love wants to fly first class..." Me: "and sometimes love requires sacrifice so that people can live within their means."

Izzy was so drunk in the scene at the apartment after the party with the whole cast 💀 Somebody get this bro some water and tortilla chips or something 😂😂

WTF Izzy was acting SUPER shady over $3500 of debt...I wonder if it's more and he's scared to tell Stacey

Mariam said it was editing that made her look confused but Uche bringing it up made it look as accurate as it was portrayed.

Love how Stacy claims she doesn’t want to be in the same sentence as Johnnie yet she was the one that wanted to start smoke. Johnnie out here LITERALLY minding her own business

I think it’s responsible to ask financial questions before one gets married. Just like one should declare what’s important and deal breakers well before getting hitched. Plenty of marriages end due to finances.

Someone tell me why Stacy has on my 4th grade summer top - to wear to meet her potential mother in law?! 😂

I think the producers expect the viewers to want as much drama as possible but tbh I’d enjoy a cute love story waaay more than all this toxicity and fights…

The way Milton tuned uche the fuck out

The cast looks like rejects from hell... In general, people are rude to each other and impolite. Stacy´s dad talking about money like that is weird, Izzy not having a credit card, also weird -- the producers of the show should do a background check including credit history... I don´t know, I think Izzy said no and MIlton said no. Nobody is getting married... Lucky for me, we had a great season 3 of Love is Blind Brazil in which 4 couples got married and are still married - they were actually very compatible and the formula of the show worked... This US version of season 5 is a train wreck, hot mess, rotten empanada... I don´t even think they should do a reunion episode...

Turns out the only couple that has a chance of working out is Johnnie and chris 😂😂😂 who knew things would turn out that way. I wouldn't bet a dime on any of the other couples

I said somewhere else that stacey and issy get alongcaue they are personified sororities and fraternity. People got mad, but the statement speaks for itself (good and bad)

My sister in Christ!! I agree with you! This season is a dumpster fire, and they all are probably drunk. Izzy admitted it on Nick Viall's podcast.

I think there is some cultural nuance missing here, Miriam clearly has expressed on TikTok and I’m sure to uche her living situation and business. I think Miriam is the only one who sees Uche for who he truly is because she’s dealt with men like him before like she said I ain’t going to cry. Uche only talked to the women he thought he could tear down, and why would he let all the other women talk even if it wasn’t in favor of him but Miriam… a women from his own cultural background that can rip into him and speak truth.

Ideally production should not only vet contestants but also speak with family to make sure the candidates are really at a place to be ready for real marriage. But i guess THAT reality show has not yet been made.

Stacy and Izzy keep calling Johnie sketchy… what’s sketchy is Stacy’s eyebrows

Pretty obvious Stacy is jealous of johnie

When Izzy said he got turned on by Stacey being mean to Johnnie I literally said they are both pathetic! 🤢🤢 and then when I thought Izzy couldn’t get anymore cringe…the crying in the closet made me cackle🤡 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just read a People article that says another couple (Paige Tillman and Josh Simmons) fell in love in the pods and were even planning their wedding! I'm amazed why production decided to just focus on the drama of two couples versus giving us hope in this show.

Stacy is coming off as a pick me. Like at this point I really think she’d listen to what johnnie was saying and then go in the pods and act exactly like who Izzy wanted. Don’t like her. Uche needs to get all the way tf outta here. And Izzy just bye. Why are we here, why did they air this season, lorrrrrrd.

Milton and Chris are the most mature out of the entire cast. Why couldn’t Lydia just say she would work on her anger. Is it so hard to admit you did not react in the best way. And Stacy getting upset that Izzy didn’t cook for her. When you say, “what are you doing for me?” marriage will not work for you. It is never 50/50. Scared for the finale. Even if they say yes at the alter not sure where the relationship is now.

Milton comforting Lydia and gassing her up after the Uche incident was maybe the hottest thing I've ever seen on this show?? Like, excuse me but the eye contact, the face holding, the confidence... I was blushing and fanning myself lol.

I don't know how I feel about this season. On the one hand the drama is hilarious and on the other it's a little depressing because the only couple that feels genuine to me, Lydia and Milton, has all that Uche drama in the mix. What was hilarious in the previous episodes now just feels sad, especially because Stacey and Izzy are impossible to root for at this point. Like...they're kinda perfect together but I can't stand them because of how hateful they were to Jonnie. I get that she said something hurtful about their relationship, but she was hurting from rejection at the time and it's not uncommon for someone to get a bit petty in a scenario like that, but at the party she didn't initiate any conflicts. The girl was just attacked and called sketchy when the whole reason Izzy dumped her was because he couldn't handle her emotional baggage, which in my personal opinion is not only sketchy but shows a lack of emotional maturity as well as empathy. Jonnie dodged a bullet on that. These episodes were a little tough to sit through. But I am looking forward to seeing what comes next week. The reunion in particular...that's going to be some sizzling hot tea. Thanks for the recap, Bachelor Fantake! We appreciate it! :) Best wishes and God bless you!

Johny knew about Izzy’s financial issues. Wonder how that went over.

Don't be fooled, Izzy is only telling Stacey to keep it cool because he likes to "rail" people in private where he can later deny the worse of his behaviour and gets to shrug it off / minimize it. Stacey made the mistake of showing her true feelings in front of witnesses. Later in the episode, the man said it turned him on to see Stacey "rail" Johnie. You even showed that clip! (Side note, it's incredibly creepy and borderline violent to hear the way these two brag about "railing" Johnie. it's sadistic.) Like her or not, Johnie was staying in her lane during that party. She did not initiate or seek out confrontation. But Stacey has the audacity to say that she doesn't even look at Johnie, doesn't think of her because she's a "trash person". Do Izzy and Stacey not understand there are cameras present and we can see them doing the exact thing they'll immediately deny at the slightest push back? (From Chris, from the other women at the party). Re: Lydia and "controlling emotions". Do you realize that saying "control your emotions" is a super common way men use to shut women up and diminish their experiences or perceptions? I remember you calling out sexist patterns from the men on the Bachelorette, but I haven't seen you do the same with this season of Love is Blind despite Uche, Izzy, JP and now Milton falling into a lot of sexist tropes in the way they speak to and about the women around them. Someone on another channel's comments said Uche's attitude is like dropping a live grenade into a conversation only to step back and say "look at how she's overreacting, look at my crazy ex and how emotional she is". To me, Uche and Izzy in particular are instigators who like to rile up their exes only to mock them for reacting to their provocation. But because they're soft spoken and articulate, and claim to be emotionally mature, the men around them give them a chance to explain themselves. It's exhausting and frustrating to witness, and I can't imagine how much worse it would be to experience.

i don't know why izzy is soo bothered that Johnnie and Chris are happy together. I love how uche and him tried to pull the "I'm not trying to Interfere in your relationship, you're my friend" Y'all aren't even that close! You didn't even know they were together.. You're literally telling them, the person they're dating is horrible and they shouldn't be whit them. Like?? The levels of bs this season..

Uche woke up and chose violence that day

I doubt the mount that caused Izzy’s bad credit was only $3500. Unless he was making $0 a month and was indebt for that much? Again he’s lying.

I love Milton! He is a gem.

Uche forgets that he also lied by omission to Milton by not saying he dated Lydia so how is Milton supposed to trust him? Also, if you thought Lydia was so bad, why are you waiting till now to tell Milton after he's already proposed. It's clear Uche is just getting back at Lydia for how things ended with Aliyah and as we all know that wasn't all Lydia's fault. In that case, he needs to stop calling Milton his "friend".

I thought this was a show about trying to find love 😂😂 Why is everyone all up in everyone elses biz instead of getting to know their person.....

Watching a person stories everyday that you don’t follow … is in my opinion definitely her keeping tabs on him to see if he appears on their stories.

Ok so I'm no Psychologist, but I've gone to therapy and I see a lot of myself in Stacy... What Stacy seems to do a lot is called "Filtering". Mental Filtering occurs when people struggle to see the whole picture and can only focus on the negative. Stacy has a tendency to discredit the gestures Izzy does for her and lasers in on the ONE thing he doesn't do. Izzy brought her flowers and said it would be his weekly ritual, she in turn focuses on the fact that he doesn't cook for her. They both ripped Johnnie apart and seemed to be having a good night until he made the comment about being glad he chose her instead of Johnnie, now she can only focus on that statement and her night is instantly ruined. Just my observation thanks to therapy!

I really can't believe Uche, a grown ass man, went to Milton as if he's got this big juicy bomb and one of the things was just that Lydia was viewing Instagram stories

The more Stacy talks, the more she shows that she has the last word and doesn't let Izzy finish any point in the conversation, I see that for that reason that little woman at that age would be alone😖

Milton is the most mature male on this show

Can we just take a moment to talk about the female narcissistic behavours there is in this season. How Stacy is being manipulative and not actually showing of her real emotions and love towards Izzy, or just her understanding. She is toxic, and I really hope for him they don't get together. Somewhat the same with Lydia, she can't or just don't want to see the things from Miltons side. He is really mature for his age in those situations, and not getting worked up about it. He got standards. The thing that concerns me honestly is how at the end of their arguements both men are apologizing for actual spilling some honest truth and how they are feeling, that takes courage. They shouldn't apologize for being themselves and making effort. If the other person can't take it, it's their issue not the other way around, and shouldn't "swallow camels". From a woman - I can say it's the women here that needs to let their guard down a bit, just show compassion and partnership rather than argueing and always blaming the man. The way they come off is not good

Uche means mind in Igbo. So, it makes sense that Uche can manipulate people, twist the truth and play mind games.

Memes and humor ON POINT in this video. "My sister in Christ" absolutely sent me 😂

Glad you watch so I don't have to. Just the SUMMARY of that much uneccessary drama makes me sick to my stomach. 🤢🤮 There is NO WAY I could handle full episodes. Thanks for searching for the romance, deeper meanings, and important conversations BachelorFantake!! ❤

Stacy seems stuck up and like Regina George to me . Izzy knows Stacy don’t like jhonnie so he knew she would have his back and get the pressure off of him lol but it back fired because she still started getting on him after the meet up .

stacy and her sister’s vocal frys are nails on a chalkboard

Everybody here focus on Izzy and Stacy but forget how mean was johnnie when she learned about them getting engaged and the way she spoke about Chris , and the way she rejected him. These girl is bad and no saint . Chris deserve better.

Uche, Izzy, Stacy were absolutely disgusting & bullies. What was their purpose aside from being ugly?? They were actually PROUD of their disgusting behavior. It says a lot about THEM. 🤦🏽‍♀️

They should've forego this season, it wasn't worth airing. It showed a failed experiment more than any other season.

i cant stand anyone on this show!!!!!!!

Yes, Johnie wanted Izzy. Then after she got rejected (key word: AFTER), she realized Izzy was the same unavailable type she'd always had crap experiences with and that Chris would be good for her. Where's the GOTCHA, the big lie that Izzy thinks happened?

Milton the only one whose level headed and logical. Everybody else annoys me 😖

When uche popped off on Miriam I was dying laughing.

I do hope Stacy is called out for her extremely mean behavior towards Johniee in the reunion! That sort of bullying cannot be ignored!

the girl who provides skincare? calling it now she works for an MLM

I don’t see any chemistry between Stacy and Izzy. I actually really enjoyed the convo between Milton and Lydia. Uche was so annoying, he was doing everything to convince Milton to get away from Lydia. When the girls didn’t want to listen he got disrespectful.

What’s even worse in Izzy’s case is that he told johnie about at least some of his financial situation. In the first few episodes when he breaks up with her and chooses Stacie, there’s a comment made by johnnie to the camera where she says that relationship won’t work out once Stacie finds out about Izzy’s finances. So he did share at least some of his a history with her but not Stacie, probably because he knows Stacie would probably not accept the proposal. He waited until she was in too deep to finally mention it. That’s intentionally withholding information. I don’t see them getting married, not with the expectations Stacie has for their lifestyle.

i can't believe they cut whole couples out (unless there was some huge court drama or something that made it needed to be done before it aired). Just add 2 more episodes and give all the couples some air FFS. I don't understand why not.

I don’t like the sound of Stacy’s voice. Its like she’s congested or something. In the pods she mostly kept too herself which was cool, but, there is something about her I just didn’t like, can’t out my finger on it. Maybe its just the voice

Not one likable person on the show. A total snoozefest. Also why does milton say like like like all the time? Even the way these people have a conversation is so boring.. im like just spit it out..whats with all the long pauses.. they have no spice.

Milton with relationship experience has a potential to turn to a fine man. He might finally realise that the opposites in the relationship is more fun than boring similarities if he will learn to appreciate and to respect the character of his partner, seeing it as a advantage not the opposite.

Milton is my favorite person on this he has good character

Uche was eating Miriam up 😂

If 3500 fucked up your credit, and you just left your job to work in insurance, Sir, why are you looking for a wife?!

SPOILER ALERT!... (read at your own risk :) Listen Lydia is a piece of work that needs some therapy, BUT, Uche is a classic narcissist. And unfortunately I engaged to one and I know first hand how they work. They are a forever victim, they isolate you from your friends, turn everything you say around to benefit them, they believe their own lies and they make it a mission to make you think you're crazy and it's even more important for them to make everyone believe you are crazy. They push your buttons like no one can, so when you do finally blow up they go look at this, see what I'm dealing with. It's a real mind f*ck! I love how real Milton's family was, and I admire the way he's so mature for such a young man. People have posted that they have seen the marriage license on line and they for sure got married. I just hope Lydia watched this and can see where she needs to improve to communicate with and appreciate Milton. Stacy and Izzy are a hot mess. He's broke and tells lies, she's a Princess and needs to be taken care of. Yes, she's walking at the alter. She has a new house to move in to. :)

What in the high school drama is going on with this season?

8:00 my sister in Christ 😂😂😂 I lost it! But also. YES

Uche annoyed that people were taking the focus of him, whit Johny and Stacy fighting was HILARIOUS! He was pissed off that people didn't jump on his narrative like he wanted and the girls told (or at least tried to) tell what actually happened.

Apparently they cut Renee and Carter's story out due to Carters behaviour? If that's true then Carter must've had some mad hold over the producers, since when are they afraid to ruin a contestant's life through their editing? Just seems so wild that they'd cut their story out when only 2 couples made it out of Mexico....

These People dragging down the entore reputation of houston 😂 On a serious note maybe next season will be closer to last season.

Netflix realy hit a "Be like Bachelor Nation and focus more on drama and crap" but fast forwarded it 🙄 season 1 was literally the only good seasn

Ssssoooo Uche wants Milton to break up with Lydia because of how she treated him (Uche) during their relationship 🙄 He's NUTS
