I think african females are hard wired to move as a pack group. Its really sad that theyre a bunch of followers. Intelligence doesn't matter to African gene pool.....lol height
The other issue I had, the lady in the green dress flew from Detroit to AZ but was not open to long distance. Ma’am you got on a plane and thought you were going to randomly find someone else from Detroit on this show? Get out of here….so weird.
I said the same thing it felt like no one was on there for love or trying to find anyone. I wouldn't bring anybody on this episode back for anything not even for reunion.
She can always move to Sweden… but gosh if you see Swedish women they usually not fat and they all look like models. So good luck to her if she decides to move
Right!! That’s why the men they get be down low and they don’t even know 😭 they want men that remind them of their baby daddies or dad, abusive, non existence, masculine toxicity etc. they don’t have any good representation or grew up in a 2 parents house hold and our trauma as kids plays out in our adult years
@@AlliterativeAtheist Nah, it's just that people are too caught up in gender wars to call out the truth. In dating there's no "our side vs their side" because we date alone at the end of the day. And we all want our potential mates to not be immature and shallow, whether they're a man or woman.
@@smoothsavage2870 my dude he said her video was objective . Stop playing in my face 😂😂 There isn’t a gender war . Yall are just confrontational and dumb all the time and we have to tell you to go away
A preference is ok because we all have them. However, it becomes a problem when you’re STUCK on your preference. You will block so many blessings and stay single being picky because ain’t NOBODY perfect. Then they want to call it “settling for less”. No baby, it’s realizing that nobody is perfect and accepting them for who they are despite their flaws that EVERYONE has. That is how not only you become, but also remain a wife.
We’re allowed to be shallow and want to be physically attracted to our partners… men only go after what they’re attracted to. We we women are allowed to do that to. Y’all shame a women for having standards, and shame her for dating just anyone too

I’m starting to think that even being 8 feet tall is not tall enough for them. You have to literally touch the clouds in the sky and even that is not enough.
@@sarauniyaGHand sometimes it’s self sabotage bcus if you’re really self aware you know initial attraction vs asking genuine questions to get to know a person is also how you can be compatible.

Lady in the white dress says she’s 5ft11 but also says she thinks the second guy is her height, although he looks taller than her in her 4 inch heels. Someone make it make sense please because I’m so confused 😭😭
I lost it when one of the girls said she popped on the guy because he didn’t like glitter 🙃🙃🙃🙃 so you loose a possibility of finding love with someone because he doesn’t like GLITTER?? At your big age ?!?!
@@BrightnSunny I mean it’s a show to find a connection, some people are doing great after the show. Why would she go on the show then? To waste people’s times because of some body glitter? 🥴
Anotherr thing that annoyed me is how the brown dress girl carrington was standing. Her legs were spread far apart, her pelvis tilted forward, and knees going the opposite direction. It was so cringe and she had the nerve to reject people.
They didn’t pop on buddy because outside of being attractive (imo he wasn’t radically different from some of the other guys) when he opened his mouth he sounded EXACTLY like Future. Can’t make this up 😂
It was the most immature group of women on this series to date! Most of them were to young as well and you can tell they're not looking for anything serious while the men were

I got ate up on tiktok for commenting on a post stating that women would drop all their so called standards they claim to have when it comes to a man they’re physically attracted to
Asia it’s crazy you made this bc I’ve been been watching the pop the balloon, and I have sooo many opinions😭 the girls are so shallow, and what pisses me off is the ones who be mean or trying to be funny. I thought the guys were brutal when I first started watching, the women are way worse. I definitely see why a lot of us are single 💔

@@asdfxcvbn746 when did I say the honesty was brutal? There have been men on the show who were very disrespectful. But again, most women I’ve seen have been worse
The reason why one out of every four black women and it’s actually turning into one out of every six black women are even getting proposed to it because of the same reason less than 20% of black women are even marriage materials. The rest are like the women on this show, specific specifically
I also think a lot of people think lust leads to love. Unfortunately, lust might lead to love or it might lead to heart ache. But choosing someone based on lust definitely doesn't make you more likely to get to a healthy long term situation. In fact, it may just do the opposite...
I hated this episode so much! But there was a scientist or doctor who said this on Tyra many years ago “women want a Tupac with a bachelors degree” and truer words never been spoken
@@perdybirdie lmfao 😭😭😭 he definitely would’ve been on mine though. They wouldn’t have cared how smart and eloquent Tupac is and how he articulates himself. All he would’ve had to say was “successful rapper” 😂.
Women are competitive but also women want the men other women want. It’s like a stamp of approval. But if it appears like nobody likes this man, then they aren’t trying to be the only one that likes the man
I was so annoyed with this episode I can’t understand these women they picked the men apart but still said they were handsome. Made no sense to me. They will be single forever all they did was feed off the other girl. None of them had a mind of they’re own
@@asdfxcvbn746Exactly they act like this is new. This is literally our everyday reality that we deal with. I guess this show let them see it in real time🤷🏾♂️
These men are too good for these women. Tara was the only one I liked from this episode. What’s crazy, well not so much anymore, these men will go and date white women or women of other races now.
@@genovasquez8361 wow , that’s crazy and it seems that some of us women just really like bad boys . The smooth player type . And it’s cause some just not heal enough and have daddy issues. I myself I had learn the hard way as well . About going for the bad boy with his player confidence ways and prideful mindset.
Hey girl, just subscribed to your channel off this video!. I reckon you should keep these POP The Balloon criticism/reaction videos coming. For Women and the men
No, the girls were really weird on this episode. Say the real reason or just shut up & use everyone else’s excuse, “he’s physically not my type.” 😩 a lot of ppl don’t come for love.
Exactly, I think they just didn't want to hurt the dude's feelings. Like when the dude with the big nose came out and he was trying to get them to say why they weren't attracted, they were very hesitant. Then, two of them told him they just didn't like his face after he kept pushing.
@@Happy-ey6yuliterally, women are constantly shamed for just finding men unattractive or ugly. But when we make silly excuses just to not be mean, that’s not good enough either. We can’t have ANY standards, we’re just supposed to acquiesce and accept anything
It's crazy right? He is bald and hairline coming in is clearly receding, he had on tight pants, he said he wanted his girl to be in the gym....cussing when he is talking to Arlette which is so disrespectful.....but no one popped lol. They are all clearly still in their Pookie and Rayray stage lol
I didn't realize it until a few short years ago that nowadays a lot of women prioritize physical appearance over financial security. I've mostly been attracted to the reserved, nerd with stability but they'd always tell me I was the exception to their norm. We're in an era of gold diggers who take advantage of the average looking, generous gentlemen but they're maintaining relationships with the cute, bum brokies.
I agree. They care more about creating an "aesthetic image" as a couple on social media for the opinion of others rather than living in reality and leaning on the mental and financial stability in a man.
this is what men have been dealing with, when we try to tell women, thet say we gaslight. thankfully not all women are like this but just like men some are good and some not so much. god bless
These guys were so attractive, well spoken and to be honest, I'm 5'11 but baby, if I feel that connection and you're 5'7 then we can go off. I got deeper issues to worry about than your looks like your personality, attitude, habits, traits and making sure you don't end up hurting me like my father did. Trust me, if you've had a good or bad father and you have your head on straight, you can tell what and what not to look for in a man.
Was making me mad when the girls still have their balloon until he pops and she just HAD to tell him a reason she wasn’t going to pick him to make that rejection feel a little less bad. Let’s not forget ok girl in the purple popping her balloon telling the guy she don’t work out everyday then the very next guy came out and said he wants a girl that works out, and she didn’t pop !
I believe over time the quality of this show will decline significantly. Largely because the motivation and intentions behind why people join this show will increasingly become more inauthentic just for personal brand clout, viral attention, etc. Sadly, what I saw on this episode and others, is exactly what I come across in real life. It's incredibly INSANE how so many young women today have these unrealistic expectations, with arrogance to go with it. SMH the audacity.
I said that the last 5 episodes. People only come on the show to gain publicity to get their instagram followers up or to grow their business. They aren’t serious
I can understand a girl not wanting a guy who looks like their father or brother...a close relative. But your cousin's best friend's baby daddy?? That tells me that she looking at him or something LOL
They still looking for "swag" like we in high school. I ain't gone lie though my worst relationship was with a well spoken, educated man with no swag lol!!!!!! The self proclaimed "good guy"
He probably was traumatized from going thru stuff like this all throughout his life and never dealt with it so by the time he finally started getting women, he was trying play a character, instead of being himself.
It is underestimated how much women can be just as shallow as men when it comes to looks. It’s a serious problem that a lot of us cannot separate the behavior from the person. In other words we accept and tolerate certain behaviors like hot and cold, nonchalance, indecisiveness, inconsistency, or mixed signals when we are physically attracted to someone. Ridiculous but true.
This comment 💯 I’ve watch both genders pop the balloon and I’ve noticed that both pick their match based off of attraction not actual chemistry connection or compatibility 🤦🏾♀️ we complain we can’t find someone for us, yet when we have a match in our face we try to find something wrong with them (you’re perfect but not tall enough) ….. but we’ll date an attractive person with 848373748585 flaws and accept every last one 🥴😩🙄
I'm so glad a woman commented on this episode, but what you said applies to the entire show. These short women were shooting down guys who were 6 feet and up. Any man in the back who is under 6 foot can forget it. The women said 6 foot and up was too short. Also, I hate to hear women shoot a man down for what he's wearing. He can always change his clothes. Hell, I had a past girlfriend that basically dressed me. She would shop for me and I loved it. Because, I hate shopping.
how are their motives questionable for being on the show some ppl dont have luck dating but would like to date and maybe exploring a new avenue would you say the same if they tried online dating or speed dating ?
@@sunkid02I didn't say one thing about speed dating or online dating, so I'm not even going to answer your question. My opinion was in regards to the show. Thanks.
@@sunkid02 idk to watch prior episodes and want to subject yourself to that and be associated with that in any way is weird. Pop the ballon is just bottom of the barrel dating for me. Standing in a little slave line looking to be picked and judged is weird
I absolutely could not stand how the women acted in this episode! 😩There was definitely a lot of piggybacking & delusion. Clearly, the women were intimidated by the caliber of man they were presented because they all were going for the mentally mediocre man. I felt so embarrassed for the quality men there…but rejection is God’s protection 🙌🏽
People looking like relatives being a no go makes sense to me, lol. I got 2 men to leave me alone after they were giving me flirting vibes when I told one he looked like my father and the other he looked like my cousin. Separate occasions. They were taken aback and it made me chuckle but they really did. And I don't like strange men flirting with me.
I get the whole "looking like my relative" thing making it a little shocking but that's not the other person's fault. They cant help how they look and they dont know who you know, let alone you. I dont use that excuse with people cause it's not really fair or applicable
@@doodiemac100but in general if it is a family member looking at their face can bring back your memories of them which can be odd if your in a relationship, while that’s not the other persons fault I personally think it’s valid to not want to date someone that looks similar to a family member, now the cousins best friends baby daddy bs was just insane
Yeah pop the balloon is annoying at this point. The reasons that they pop are ridiculous, I think it saves the genuine people time. I see why some of these people are single
Finally someone who agrees with me on the height thing. Why does your man need to be a tower in comparison to you? I don’t understand that. Like you’re 5’2” but 5’5” in heels but he’s 6’ and that’s not tall enough? Girl a man that’s 5’10” would still be taller than you in heels 😂😂😂😂. It’s giving “I want to be a baby, in my man’s eyes fetish” like why he gotta be looking down on you like Godzilla? Not saying there’s an issue if you find someone like that but why is it a requirement when it’s so rare? 😂😂😂
1. They have 'daddy issues' 2. They don't like men they like the idea of men so they only attracted to 0.000001 of the global male population, or men that don't exist. 3. Like you said, they have a height fetish
That’s why I love this show. This show really sheds light on society and the dating pool currently. Not saying all women are like this and are shallow. If you really watch this show you’ll notice the men rarely pop their balloon before the women speaks. Even if they aren’t attracted they allow the women to speak and find out something about her personality. I’m so glad I’m married because I truly believe that social media has ruined peoples perspective. I agree this is probably the worst episode yet. They’re were a lot of taller gentleman on this show and only one match and she was a stripper🤯. I really wish buddy would’ve popped her balloon 🤦🏾♂️
This is why it’s hard to take women seriously when they talk about the size of a man’s meat. 5 foot 11 and wearing heels telling a man who is a good two to three inches taller that he isn’t the height he says he is 🤦🏿♂️ And friends, cousins, sisters, baby daddy’s, electricians, barbers, neighbors baby daddy? 🤦🏿♂️
Agreed I was so upset by this episode. I’m married and agree that their standards were off center and made no sense. They weren’t looking for love they were looking for the spot light.
Omg I saw this episode and I definitely AGREE. They all just went along with what the next said and that lightened one was acting like she regretted popping that one guys balloon and mind u that last episode the lineup of guys weren’t bad at all nor were any disrespectful so girls are gonna keep missing out and end up alone forever.
@@DievestorsNeverLearn a lot of trash ppl came on the show yes…but some ppl are more than descent and some ppl do find love. This is the only episode they All look hit and they personality is shit.
@@DievestorsNeverLearn I’m not gonna say that…There’s some descent females that come on the show where men made some good connections with….but this female lineup, the whole line trash…and their personality didn’t help- with the lashes, makeup and all they still look hit.
THANK YOU!!!!! I swear you saying everything I be saying especially about this episode. I was so pissed with these women! You a real one for saying what most of us our thinking!
They truly were embarrassing! 😩 And the fact that a lot of them were also referring to how the men were dressed when they themselves should’ve chose a different fit was baffling. 😓
Being single forever is perfectly fine if that's what a person wants. And plenty do! I know I did only to end up marrying my best friend lol (the irony is not lost on me). However, if a person is looking for a relationship, he or she needs to work on themselves and set realistic boundaries and standards.
Gurl, you are NEVER lying...I agree with you, 1000%! Some of the women and men, I see why they are single and they will REMAIN single or in whatever situation they are in, for real !! On all of the pop the ballon shows, for real !!
This episode irritated a lot of people, including myself. This is a reflection of a lot of black women who think like some of these women. It's sample size, but there's actually quite a few that think like this. It's like women want to pick men so they can impress their friends and other women instead of impressing theirself. I say this because they allowed other women's opinions to affect their own. I'm not saying these women needed to pick these men, but a lot of the men on this episode had a lot going for theirself for women looking for love and success to immediately reject them. These women were attractive but they act like they thought they were goddesses and the men there were mere mortals when most had the stability, taller than the average man, dress like grown men, and were inshape a lot of women say they want a man to embody these but they turned these guys down quicker than fleeing a burning building. It's irritating because the everyday man isn't even taller than 6ft. Nothing wrong with being taller but it limits your options in so many ways if you only want pro basketball height men when most of the women were average or below average height women except for the tall women in heels. Why does someone need someone 8-12 inches taller than them when that's not common anywhere in the world?
You hit the nail on the head, these women are not healed!! It shows with the questions, the reasons they pop, their mindsets. This is a sad day for the community. 🤦🏾♀️
I love this show because it is holding up a mirror in front of woman so yall can finally see what men see. But it presents a great opportunity for the smarter more logical and reasonable women out there to swoop in and pick up great guys. Mine did exactly that because I was literally about to just fly down to colombia and learn spanish.
Thank you for calling this out, it is great to see a young lady with great insight! As a happily married nerd, who later got into shape, I lived the lives of these guys. Glad the world gets to see. In what world is 6, 6'1, 6'2 short lol Men are not perfect, but we tend to be okay if a girl is not popular, we are more open to finding the low key cool girls. You had a great analysis, wishing you all of the best, there are definitely a silent group of amazing women out there.
Bottomline is if she physically attracted to you she dont care about height and all those other stuff. The 6ft girl held on to her balloon for that one guy and kept her balloon despite being shorter than her
New subscriber, I swear I called my BFF and had the same complaints you had about this episode. I told her, girl I stand corrected, it’s us. These women were horrible and not looking for love.
Thanks for making this video. You basically summed up ALL that has been taking place on these episodes where the women are concerned. Especially the part of them "not knowing what they want/looking for." They're constantly contradicting themselves, especially in that episode 23. Thank God for Sister Arlette and her husband for having this show, it really does reveal a lot about both men and women in our society today, who "think" they're looking for love or even ready for being in a relationship. Thank God for those who made a match and it worked out. God is Great either way 🙏. Peace out!!! ✌
@@Baraka-z9f No but I think these same women would find an issue with that too. They just constantly move the goal post every time they find what they want in a man and it’s very frustrating
@@braveheart9097 nahh they definitely act differently in front of white men and they do have different standards for them. Don't forget ol girl that got arrested for scamming a baseball player.
Most people and black women in particular do not understand dating statistics and probability. If only 1 out of 4 black women will marry in their lifetime and women generally outnumber men, it is illogical to be so picky by default. Pop the ballon is not a good venue to find a spouse because people are flying in from all over the country, and long distance relationships in general do not lead to marriage. It's better to just hire a local match maker if you're serious. One of the best men from this episode left with a stripper that has a young child. How broken are our individual mindsets as black people?
Honestly you can't really get into people for being picky. Yes it's frustrating but what's even more frustrating is settling for something you were deadset on not wanting. It builds a toxic relationship and plenty have fallen apart because of it. There are plenty of women who aren't picky but aren't I guess "comventially attractive" to men and picky men will skip over them as well. It's just an unfortunate situation overall.
I agree with your comment regarding the probability but the 1 out of 4 stat is often misquoted. I'm very harsh on American black women trust me but this particular stat isn't true. HALF of black women get married but then half of that get divorced so we're left with the "1 out of 4." Perhaps it would be better to say 1 out of 4 will STAY married. You can go on black demographics to check it out.
