Cam says it’s been a “rocky road” but he wants to stay so he can… He turns to her, tells her to come back to the house, (can’t look at her in the eyes while doing this, mind you) and says they can at least be friends because he doesn’t want it to end like this?

"What I wanted out of a relationship was not just intimacy from a physical component, but also spiritual connection, able to have deep conversations and experience growth together versus just the physical," Josh said. When it comes to their views on relationships, Josh thinks he and Melissa just weren't on the same page. "Towards the last couple of days I just kind of felt like there's all these things that I was seeing, some patterns of patterns of behavior that I was uncomfortable with," Josh said. Josh felt like he'd "tried to persevere" and "push himself" throughout the experiment, but admitted his final week was what really tested him.

MAFS: Shady Shannon And Meany Melissa Get The Boot - B&T (B&T)

It was a good night for empowerment last night as both Caitlin and Josh discovered self-respect, and toxic duo Shannon and Melissa discovered the door.

Duncan told Melissa that saying someone isn’t manly enough was “an archaic way of talking about what a man is” and the rest of the men followed him out when he left the sofa in pain. And Josh wasn’t the only one feeling the self-love last night. Sadly previous commitment ceremony nights have been painful to watch, with people (*cough* Bronte) staying with toxic people (*cough* Harrison) and saying things like “I just don’t want to give up this easily”.

“She’s attempted to restrict my access to the mobile phone. No woman deserves a free pass. Melissa’s behaviour hasn’t been given the same treatment. Interestingly, Melissa’s antics didn’t ignite an extensive conversation about consent within a relationship, but rather she just became a joke. This season we’ve seen groom Harrison being called out for a gaslighting his wife, Bronte. When Melissa burst onto our screens, she quickly became the joke of the season.
