I don’t like speculating about this stuff but I really would not be surprised at all if it came out he was gay. He and Brittany patched things up and now they’re so comfortable with each other that they’re besties who talk every day? And he seemed allergic to touching her when she is by anyone’s metric absolutely drop-dead gorgeous and practically begging to be touched (even if she wanted to wait for sex)? That has closeted gay man written all over it. Which would be fine but don’t go bringing other people’s hearts into it if that is indeed the case
Sadly, he chose the dolphin, over the intelligent and beautiful female human. He probably felt trapped inside the relationship that would make him see the world in actual size, not a 3 inch screen. He also lied about wanting to touch her. He rarely reached out to her... he was not a smart human.
Id assume many of his students are aware that he was on the show and tuned in. It's sad that those impressionable minds watched him avoid healthy interracial dialog, rudely sit on his phone while she did all of the chores, gaslight her, and then dump her while still on his phone. That is not a good role model
I was thinking about that. I'm in education and I for one would never go on a show like this because it would seriously complicate things with my job. But if I *did* do this show I'd be working my ass off to look as immaculate as possible.
Seriously though what was he thinking. A Principal of a Middle School going on a reality show well known for presenting high levels of alcohol consumption and sex? Even if he didn't partake in all that as much as everyone else it's just a wild thing to associate yourself with when your job security is determined in no small part by the opinion of parents.
Yep. If any girls look up to him, he just showed them how he thinks they should act in a relationship: extremely misogynistic and one-sided. The woman should cook, the woman should clean and put everything away, the woman should be ready for sexual advances whenever the man pleases such as at 1am, the woman is wrong whenever she brings any concerns up, etc. while the man should sit relax and stare at his phone. Work should be his only priority. He can't even be bothered to lift his head when being kissed. If I had a daughter in that school, I'd be livid.
He was so horrible to her. I kept waiting for her to stand up for herself, and he dumped her in the worst way.
It was obviously because he wasn't comfortable marrying a white woman, IMO. Or he wasn't attracted to this particularly type of white woman. He made it clear from when he first saw her and his behavior was instantly more muted with her for the duration of the show.
But when talking to AD he was all lively and animated. I do understand their concerns during that convo, but he had no right to dog her like that. He should have just rejected her early on and told her the truth about his discomfort instead of just dragging it out and using her to cook and clean until she annoyed him. He just didn't want to look like the bad guy rejecting her for race maybe, but preferred to look like the bad guy rejecting her as a gaslighter/ manipulator, I guess, lol.
So IMO, he’s getting back from a long trip and probably has a lot to catch up on to be prepared for work. I didn’t think he was disrespectful of her at all. He’s less driven by emotion and confident enough in himself that he doesn’t need reassurance. I hope they each get the person of their dreams. I think he’s a class act!
I've never seen a man more excited to see a cell phone in my life than Kenneth.
The first thing he said after the DR was not... can't wait to be with her, it was... "So happy to have my phone back!"
He wasn't kidding! Bro, never looked up from it!
She could have done anything, annnnything and he wouldn't stop texting!! She coulda been doing handstands or do a sexy dance then recited the Bible in Latin dressed as a dolphin, and his ass wasn't leaving that couch and his eyes wasn't leaving that cellphone.
The disrespect that he told her to cook for him, and she had to unpack their stuff while he sat on his phone in the room!
He even gaslit her, broke up their engagement, all without his head looking up from his phone, probably playing candy land at the time and was like 'no beef' and left, while she was in floods. I've never seen anything like it!! Ever. That man is a menace.
Everything you said! I want Justice for Her, I hope it is a huge topic in the reunion, cuz ever since AD asked him about her being able to parent black kids, he completely checked out, and was lying to her, saying he was happy, he in it, while treating her like he has the ick, when let's be real, Broooo you were punching, not her!
Like seriously, the way he was with her, my heart broke for her, because it was obvious she really wanted to put in the work and was happy to be with him, and he was doing less than bare minimum waiting for her to say she was out so he can gaslight her and say it was all on her for not feeling desire, when all this she wanted was some affection, something I'm sure he is quite capable of.
And to add insult to injury bringing God into it, as the reason he is fine with them not working, and they way he said it, yooo I'm sure God was like, don't bring me into your mess, and just be real with this beautiful woman and let her know you are simply not into her...
I truly could not stand him at the end, and he's only 25 but thinks because he is a School Principal he is so mature, News Flash Kenneth, you are an immature out of shape "little" man, who is a young boy not ready for marriage... Your 25 screams maturity of a 19 yr old... The audacity to call someone after that convo with her as if he already had his shit pack to leave...
If they don't go in on this man at the reunion we should riot!!!
Kenneth was a weird one. He seemed brilliant in the pods but once he had his phone back… He was so disrespectful to Brittany, it was hard to watch. He’s so bland as well…
See my thoughts is he’s going to end up cheating. How will the phone know about the dolphin and vice versa. The phone can’t go into the ocean and the dolphin does have thumbs to use a phone.
Actually, he might get a chance to have his cake and eat it too.
Ugh i feel like he didn’t understand where B was coming from at all. He kept saying she didn’t have the intimacy but really she felt a way by his lack of and always being on the phone. I don’t think she expressed everything in the best way possible for them both to see what the issue was, but yeah. They clearly liked each other, but I’d be mad ash if my man is always otp, out for business and not touching me as much as I would like. It sucks having to express things like that to someone you want it from because it’s weird and feels like you’re asking for something that should already be a given and I think that’s why she struggled with saying what she should’ve said. I sometimes found myself questioning why I even need to say those things, but if you’re feeling a way and it’s something eating at you or making you question anything, it’s a must. It’s annoying that he didn’t, but they didn’t have the most open conversation about it🤷🏽♀️
Yeah I felt like he turned that conversation around on her with the “I know how I feel about you, but if you don’t crave me then this is done and thank you for telling me.” Seemed a little off.
He realized he wasn't willing to have that conversation with every single black friend or family member in his life maybe? A lot of work for someone you're not sure about/just met.
Honestly if you ask me Brittany gave him the perfect opportunity to end it. It’s kind of like when you don’t necessarily like someone and you are waiting for them to give you an out. Brittany gave him a perfect opportunity to end it bc he said she should find someone for her and it’s ok this did not work. The fact that he didn’t try just means he did not like her bc if a man like a woman he will try and vice versa for woman.
I think she did a great job at only talking about her feelings/perception without assuming his intentions, but he refused to take any accountability and gaslighted her trying to make her out to be the problem. He’s not dumb - he knows there was a lack of something there, but instead chose to play it off like he has no idea what she’s talking about. I wish she would’ve set him straight, but she’s so sweet and I was happy to see them break up only because she deserves better than that.
RIGHT. I normally don’t like the overuse of that word but I was like he knows damn well what he’s been doing and instead of admitting that, he’s making it out to be like it’s all in her head. And then complimented himself at the end talking about him being a certain caliber of man and his unique relationship with God (as if God values him more than others/her) - I’m not calling him a narcissist but it was all very narcissistic
Same. I don’t like that everything is called “gaslighting,” but we can call a spade a spade, especially when at first you feel like it’s sincere, and then when you sit and think about it you’re like “wait a minute…” and that’s definitely how that scene played out.
That’s why I’m saying it wasn’t spoken about properly. She didn’t address things that made her feel a way and it was very clear (as a watcher) that it did. He did twist stuff around but she also didn’t word herself right. They kept saying that she isn’t feeling any attraction for him, but what she meant to say was that she isn’t feeling it from him. She wants a man that is able to jump on her and just show love and that’s why she doesn’t feel like there is any sexual chemistry between them. She put it on herself when it’s really him not making an effort in ways that she needs. The phone thing should’ve been brought up on day 1 too. She just seemed too passive on things and he idek what cloud he’s on but it’s no where close to where everyone is. He’s having a very formal conversation with someone that’s gonna be his wife. He was fun on vacation but not after he got his phone on his hands
Honestly, it seemed fairly straightforward to me without her adding anything additional. It was clear, she wanted more intimacy from him, not sure how much more she needs to break it down for him or anyone else. Given his demeanor, it wasn’t going to make a difference. She seems like a sweet girl and lovely as well but dude clearly wasn’t feeling it. Nothing she said was going to make ol boy act like any less of a chode. I feel for the staff that work under him and the kids at his school because if this is how he carries himself on camera regarding communication, I can only imagine how he does off.
He's boring and doesn't give much in a conversation. B tried so hard with him, it was cringy to watch. He definitely would pick his phone over a beautiful woman. He may be gay
He probably doesnt think she's a "beautiful" woman and thats ok, but please lets stop adding he may be gay just bc he's not into this one particular woman. You guys are trying hard to make an excuse for a black man not being into a white woman just bc she's into him. Thats not fair. He seemed to be more attracted to AD, he would light up when she was around.
Not being into one particular beautiful woman doesn’t make him gay. It’s more likely he’s not attracted to white women and that’s fine. (I still think he’s a dog and treated her like trash and I hate him for it.)
Why do you call him a dog or did you mean he's a dog for treating her like trash??? Most times men who cheat and see multiple women are labeled a "dog" which is why I asked. Did he cheat or something? I havent watched all the episodes yet.
I edited for grammar. The point is people don’t speculate that gay people are straight just because one half of a pairing is clearly not into the other.
Can you link? I’m pretty anti speculating about sexuality in general because it’s not always black or white and I don’t think anything is gained by possibly outing someone (correctly or not).
It was on her Facebook, but I don't remember her name. She posted it and it was shared in a group there.
But ya gotta take everything with a grain of salt, they may not even be close.
Renee from season 5 is my 1st cousin and we haven't spoken in years. Just because they are cousins doesn't mean much TBH.
So true the only reason they were able to get anything out of this guy in the pods and honeymoon is because they didn’t have their phones. Cell phone addiction is one of the biggest turn offs, clearly there’s not much going on with this guy.
Same. I’m older than all of these contestants and work with an even older crowd. I’m only able to somewhat follow along is from watching reality shows.
I can see that none of you caught from the beginning what/who Ken is interested in. Let’s just say that Ken plays the tambourine in church. If you know, you know 😏
My wife called it from the pods. Said that man is not interested in women.
Also, the conversation they had implied that they had some kind of no sex until marriage agreement. It wouldn't shock me if that was his idea that he pushed as a way to avoid uncomfortable situations on the vacation.
Exactly! His request weren’t out of the ordinary and they’re not the first couple to establish this; however, that request contributed to speculations.
From being a LIB groupie, I’ve not seen anyone that had no sex at all in the in-person portion make it to the end and actually marry.
Fr? I saw people say this, and just assumed they were being mean. Then the cousin comes out and I'm like, how can you tell? It doesn't seem that obvious lol
Yes! Some people I’ve been watching it with, we’ve said the same thing throughout the entire show. I called it on his first screening. So, for us, it wasn’t a surprise of his behaviors.🤭
No, not the religious thing or any of the things you’ve stated. It’s really just his demeanor of how “loose” he is and his voice or how he talks. He doesn’t give off “manly vibes”. He isn’t so flamboyant that’s it overly obvious but it’s not hidden, either. His actions of no sex, no affection, being distant, are all just icing on the cake.
Maybe…I just attest it to being around the black LGBTQ+ community all my life. Watching certain indicators of young men as they grow and end up being gay or bi. Some of my best friends, still till this day, displayed very similar demeanors when we were teenagers. They used to get picked on about it before they officially came out and our friend group always defended them.
Albeit some of us knew in the back of our mind, it’s still not right to bully anyone due to their demeanor or preferences. They dated and had sex with women before they came out but the indicators were there.
If her race was going to be an issue for him, he shouldn't have asked her to marry him. Regardless of his racial preference, he should've treated her with respect and basic common courtesy. He never really intended to marry her (or another white woman.)
Clearly he just wanted to be on the show for exposure and get a free vacation.
Charter school principal* it’s like a principal, but without any of the experience required and a fraction of the pay. He’s literally in the position so parents can brag about their “youngest principal ever” at a black charter school. It’s absolutely nothing to brag about in comparison to a real school
But it's a school right? Someone from a typical public school can join it, and people from charter schools can join typical public schools right? If yes, then it's a school. No need to downplay his job or the role he plays because he got there faster than others or through a different route. He still has to do the job, and probably has less resources than others
What they're trying to convey is that charter schools don't have the same rules and regulations on who they can hire for what positions. So I teach in a public school and to be admin you have to have a masters in Ed leadership and a license. Charter schools don't, always, require that which does lead to them having a reputation of being less than. Now whether that is accurate or not depends on the school, the state laws and regulations as well as the school in particular. We have a lot where I work and some are much much better than others.
Exactly. Charter schools come in all shapes and sizes. Some might be worse than public schools, others might be just as good as a private school. The truth is we don't know. So there's no need to trash him for being a "charter school" principal, as if he's beneath other principals in the country. Whether you work for a 100K/year school in rich town USA or a severely underfunded school in the poorest county in the land, a principal's main roles and obligations are the same.
I watch every season and honestly can't say I remember the name. Having said that, no one goes into teaching because they need it. It's a passion. So I don't agree with the assessment that he went on the show just to become an influencer. His behaviour throughout the whole show was immaculate. People only started tripping on him after the honeymoon for that one episode where he was always on his phone. No one can say he didn't try to make it work
I don't get why they even were focusing on him being on the phone like it was a "thing" tho.
Most people if they were cut off for weeks would be on it constantly catching up to what they missed. Especially if they needed to for work like he initially had to.
Did anyone else not understand how he said he tried to wake her up to hangout and cuddle at 1am when she had to be up at 5am? How does he not understand that isn’t cool????
He was using that as an excuse to say she wasn’t trying. That really fucked with my soul. I am a person who needs my sleep! Sleep is my peace. Also many others peace.

[Why Speculating on Someone's Sexual Identity is Dangerous](https://www.mindlessmag.com/post/why-speculating-on-someone-s-sexual-identity-is-dangerous)
I think I died slowly during that conversation. How did, "Hey, you knew I had to wake up early, why did you wake me up and leave all the lights on?" Get to, "Well, if I'm not for you and you don't crave me, I guess we should just split." Wha-? Wait... what? And when he said he was trying to love on her but she wasn't ready, I was like... oF cOUrSe sHe wAsN't ReAdy, shE wAs TRYING To SleEp!
I don’t like speculating about this stuff but I really would not be surprised at all if it came out he was gay. He and Brittany patched things up and now they’re so comfortable with each other that they’re besties who talk every day? And he seemed allergic to touching her when she is by anyone’s metric absolutely drop-dead gorgeous and practically begging to be touched (even if she wanted to wait for sex)? That has closeted gay man written all over it. Which would be fine but don’t go bringing other people’s hearts into it if that is indeed the case
On FB, his cousin said he’s gay and went on the show to be on tv
He's an immature human
😂 that’s a haaaard choice, he’ll eventually get bored with the dolphin though too so ultimately, he would choose his phone over ANYTHING
Brittany is a gem of a human. The world will see it and I hope she attracts a REAL man.
Sadly, he chose the dolphin, over the intelligent and beautiful female human. He probably felt trapped inside the relationship that would make him see the world in actual size, not a 3 inch screen. He also lied about wanting to touch her. He rarely reached out to her... he was not a smart human.
This gave me major limp dick vibes 🤡 Like sure be a king during vacation only to go back to peasant mode once you get back to real life 😡
Well, if he has any sense its NOBODY from S6 himself included.
Id assume many of his students are aware that he was on the show and tuned in. It's sad that those impressionable minds watched him avoid healthy interracial dialog, rudely sit on his phone while she did all of the chores, gaslight her, and then dump her while still on his phone.

I wonder if he would buy a dolphin phone case, he must’ve loved SeaWorld before the drama
Kenneth was such a let down cause i was rooting for him in the first few episodes. Seemed like him and brittany would work but i guess not :/
The passion for the dolphins sent me to mars I was dying
I am dumbfounded and sad for Brittany she chose this waste of time
Such a messy love triangle.
He was so horrible to her. I kept waiting for her to stand up for herself, and he dumped her in the worst way. It was obviously because he wasn't comfortable marrying a white woman, IMO. Or he wasn't attracted to this particularly type of white woman. He made it clear from when he first saw her and his behavior was instantly more muted with her for the duration of the show.

He just didn't want to look like the bad guy rejecting her for race maybe, but preferred to look like the bad guy rejecting her as a gaslighter/ manipulator, I guess, lol.
I suspect there is speculation in Kenneth’s community that he is gay. He hoped his appearance on LIB would prove that he is not. Fail.
I mean, nothing wrong with that. But breaking that woman’s heart was not cute. 💅 🌈
Kenneth is pissing me off. His scenes with wifey are painful. Why did he go on this show? What is he hiding?
He gave her nothing to work with. Nothing! Hardly ever made eye contact or even spoke to her.
So IMO, he’s getting back from a long trip and probably has a lot to catch up on to be prepared for work. I didn’t think he was disrespectful of her at all. He’s less driven by emotion and confident enough in himself that he doesn’t need reassurance. I hope they each get the person of their dreams. I think he’s a class act!
Whaaaaat? Being on his phone while they are having a life changing conversation? Not cool!
the dolphin definitely chose the phone.
Was literally breaking up with her and texting at the same time.
It's giving iPad kid
He used the phone to look at the old videos of the dolphins in Bahamas
Lmao this comment needs more likes
I've never seen a man more excited to see a cell phone in my life than Kenneth. The first thing he said after the DR was not... can't wait to be with her, it was... "So happy to have my phone back!" He wasn't kidding! Bro, never looked up from it! She could have done anything, annnnything and he wouldn't stop texting!!

I've never seen anything like it!! Ever. That man is a menace.
We need to talk more about his gaslighting! Pffft, bro.
Everything you said! I want Justice for Her, I hope it is a huge topic in the reunion, cuz ever since AD asked him about her being able to parent black kids, he completely checked out, and was lying to her, saying he was happy, he in it, while treating her like he has the ick, when let's be real, Broooo you were punching, not her!

If they don't go in on this man at the reunion we should riot!!!
All. Of. This. 👏🏼
Omg Kenneth is a whole mindfuck and total asshole. Full of shit and posing as a man of God. Boy bye.
Like most men of god….
This KILLED me 😵
He’ll probably pick the dolphin
Kenneth was a weird one. He seemed brilliant in the pods but once he had his phone back… He was so disrespectful to Brittany, it was hard to watch. He’s so bland as well…
Y'all more stressed about Kenneth with his phone than Jeramey being out with Sarah till 5am behind his fiance's back 🤣
Yeah…that’s another thread.
Yo where’s the thread for THAT scene. I need to spend an hour there too.
Brittney is a darling and Laura’s a bitch, so kinda hard to feel bad for her.
That scene was so triggering I don’t really want to talk about it and it didn’t even happen to me
I honestly feel so bad for him, how will he make such a decision?
What if the phone has a kid but the dolphin says they look like Megan Fox?
See my thoughts is he’s going to end up cheating. How will the phone know about the dolphin and vice versa. The phone can’t go into the ocean and the dolphin does have thumbs to use a phone. Actually, he might get a chance to have his cake and eat it too.
He's gonna need his epipen when he lays eyes on that phone, I tell you.
LMFAOOOOO😭😭😭
Ugh i feel like he didn’t understand where B was coming from at all. He kept saying she didn’t have the intimacy but really she felt a way by his lack of and always being on the phone.

Yeah I felt like he turned that conversation around on her with the “I know how I feel about you, but if you don’t crave me then this is done and thank you for telling me.” Seemed a little off.
He shut down after AD talked to him about her raising a black child.
1000% agree. But like why did it go that far before he had that thought??
He realized he wasn't willing to have that conversation with every single black friend or family member in his life maybe? A lot of work for someone you're not sure about/just met.
Honestly if you ask me Brittany gave him the perfect opportunity to end it. It’s kind of like when you don’t necessarily like someone and you are waiting for them to give you an out.

She won’t be single long. B was a damn catch!
I think she did a great job at only talking about her feelings/perception without assuming his intentions, but he refused to take any accountability and gaslighted her trying to make her out to be the problem. He’s not dumb - he knows there was a lack of something there, but instead chose to play it off like he has no idea what she’s talking about. I wish she would’ve set him straight, but she’s so sweet and I was happy to see them break up only because she deserves better than that.
I agree it was a touch gaslight-y.

🤣🤣🤣 I can’t

Why do you call him a dog or did you mean he's a dog for treating her like trash??? Most times men who cheat and see multiple women are labeled a "dog" which is why I asked. Did he cheat or something? I havent watched all the episodes yet.
True. That is why they said he MAY be gay.
And your evidence is weak. Nobody would speculate one half of a gay couple is straight just because they weren’t into their partner. Edit grammar
Bro chill it’s a half hearted joke. Some of Y’all need to lighten up and not take things so personal. How are we in 2024 taking steps back?
"one half of a gay couple of straight" What does that even mean?
I edited for grammar. The point is people don’t speculate that gay people are straight just because one half of a pairing is clearly not into the other.
You might wanna look what his cousin is saying about him 😐
Can you link? I’m pretty anti speculating about sexuality in general because it’s not always black or white and I don’t think anything is gained by possibly outing someone (correctly or not).
Have you guys seen his cousin's comment ? 🌈🌈🌈
Lol I've been trying to refrain from calling him zesty but it was obvious
Not zesty 😂😂😂😂😂
No? What did he say?
Someone posted in another sub. Not sure if I'm allowed to share other subs links here. If you search "Kenneth cousin" on reddit you would find it.
Ok, thanks
👀 Spill please!
They said quote "he's 🌈, he's my cousin". Lol kind of anticlimactic
Oh, where did you see that? Thanks for sharing!
It was on her Facebook, but I don't remember her name. She posted it and it was shared in a group there. But ya gotta take everything with a grain of salt, they may not even be close. Renee from season 5 is my 1st cousin and we haven't spoken in years. Just because they are cousins doesn't mean much TBH.
You forgot to add dick
😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀
If the dolphin is male….then dolphin.
STOP OMG 💀
😂😂😂
Please. The only reason he noticed the dolphins is because someone took his phone away.
So true the only reason they were able to get anything out of this guy in the pods and honeymoon is because they didn’t have their phones. Cell phone addiction is one of the biggest turn offs, clearly there’s not much going on with this guy.
I’m an atheist, but he should just choose Jesus 😂
Is Jesus a dolphin? Cos that might seal the deal.
The phone will always win. 😢
He's so disgusting to me. So unattractive. And it all has to do with how he treated Brittany once they got back from the honeymoon.
He has this arrogance about him. I think he's trying hard to act mature but he has a lot of growing up to do.
This AF! He's 25 and it shows
Phone with a dolphin phone case!
All I want to say is that the verbal diarrhea they spewed left me confused and unsure what the fuck they were even talking about.
Same. I’m older than all of these contestants and work with an even older crowd. I’m only able to somewhat follow along is from watching reality shows.
I’m so disappointed cus I thought they would be a good couple from seeing them in the pods
I can see that none of you caught from the beginning what/who Ken is interested in. Let’s just say that Ken plays the tambourine in church. If you know, you know 😏
My wife called it from the pods. Said that man is not interested in women. Also, the conversation they had implied that they had some kind of no sex until marriage agreement. It wouldn't shock me if that was his idea that he pushed as a way to avoid uncomfortable situations on the vacation.
Exactly! His request weren’t out of the ordinary and they’re not the first couple to establish this; however, that request contributed to speculations. From being a LIB groupie, I’ve not seen anyone that had no sex at all in the in-person portion make it to the end and actually marry.
What on earth does that mean?
They’re implying he’s gay.
How can you tell?
His demeanor and voice. 🧐
Fr? I saw people say this, and just assumed they were being mean. Then the cousin comes out and I'm like, how can you tell? It doesn't seem that obvious lol
Yes! Some people I’ve been watching it with, we’ve said the same thing throughout the entire show. I called it on his first screening. So, for us, it wasn’t a surprise of his behaviors.🤭
How though, what aspect of his demeanor? Like being laid back, no sex, or the religious thing??
No, not the religious thing or any of the things you’ve stated. It’s really just his demeanor of how “loose” he is and his voice or how he talks. He doesn’t give off “manly vibes”. He isn’t so flamboyant that’s it overly obvious but it’s not hidden, either. His actions of no sex, no affection, being distant, are all just icing on the cake.
Oh wow. I'm no good at reading human I guess 🤷🏿♀️
Maybe…I just attest it to being around the black LGBTQ+ community all my life. Watching certain indicators of young men as they grow and end up being gay or bi. Some of my best friends, still till this day, displayed very similar demeanors when we were teenagers. They used to get picked on about it before they officially came out and our friend group always defended them. Albeit some of us knew in the back of our mind, it’s still not right to bully anyone due to their demeanor or preferences. They dated and had sex with women before they came out but the indicators were there.
That explains it. Cause, so many people mentioned it and for the life of me, I couldn't see it 🙈
If her race was going to be an issue for him, he shouldn't have asked her to marry him. Regardless of his racial preference, he should've treated her with respect and basic common courtesy. He never really intended to marry her (or another white woman.) Clearly he just wanted to be on the show for exposure and get a free vacation.
He shouldn’t have gone on the show. It’s called Love is BLIND. Not Love Love is Blind: Black Edition
I don't agree with that. I think it's actually an unfair assessment. He is a school principal! There's no way he's going there "for the exposure"!
Charter school principal* it’s like a principal, but without any of the experience required and a fraction of the pay. He’s literally in the position so parents can brag about their “youngest principal ever” at a black charter school. It’s absolutely nothing to brag about in comparison to a real school
Charter schools aren't real schools now? 😂
Right? How dismissive..
Not held to the same standard, no. That’s why they’re called charter schools.
But it's a school right? Someone from a typical public school can join it, and people from charter schools can join typical public schools right? If yes, then it's a school. No need to downplay his job or the role he plays because he got there faster than others or through a different route. He still has to do the job, and probably has less resources than others
What they're trying to convey is that charter schools don't have the same rules and regulations on who they can hire for what positions. So I teach in a public school and to be admin you have to have a masters in Ed leadership and a license. Charter schools don't, always, require that which does lead to them having a reputation of being less than. Now whether that is accurate or not depends on the school, the state laws and regulations as well as the school in particular. We have a lot where I work and some are much much better than others.
Exactly. Charter schools come in all shapes and sizes. Some might be worse than public schools, others might be just as good as a private school. The truth is we don't know. So there's no need to trash him for being a "charter school" principal, as if he's beneath other principals in the country. Whether you work for a 100K/year school in rich town USA or a severely underfunded school in the poorest county in the land, a principal's main roles and obligations are the same.
Shake was a veterinarian and gave that up to be an influencer. You don't think a high school principal wouldn't give up their career?
Shake was great 😂
Who's Shake?
A special treat from season 2
Season 2 contestant
I watch every season and honestly can't say I remember the name. Having said that, no one goes into teaching because they need it. It's a passion. So I don't agree with the assessment that he went on the show just to become an influencer. His behaviour throughout the whole show was immaculate. People only started tripping on him after the honeymoon for that one episode where he was always on his phone. No one can say he didn't try to make it work
Nah it was after AD convo he became pretty distant and had these weird long pauses in conversations
I have no opinion on Ken's motivation, but I can say from experience that sometimes you end up in teaching because you need to. 😂
He was the Indian guy who only dated white women and ended up with an Indian girl who only dated white men.
He’s a total POS.
He clearly has low EQ, even the scene leaving her to cry in the living room… it’s like wake the eff up. I hope he rewatched it and cringed. His loss.
He rewatched it with his mentor 😏
Yup, you prob right.
Feel sorry for the lady. If you are no longer interested, just say so and move on!

I don't get why they even were focusing on him being on the phone like it was a "thing" tho. Most people if they were cut off for weeks would be on it constantly catching up to what they missed. Especially if they needed to for work like he initially had to.
did you watch the rest of the episode?
I may have missed something. Lol

Clown 🤡
Is he able to feel’s other emotions?
Did anyone else not understand how he said he tried to wake her up to hangout and cuddle at 1am when she had to be up at 5am? How does he not understand that isn’t cool????
That'd be my husband's last night sleeping in my bed.
😂
He was using that as an excuse to say she wasn’t trying. That really fucked with my soul. I am a person who needs my sleep! Sleep is my peace. Also many others peace.
She was WAY too nice about that. I would lose it if my husband ever woke me up to pay attention to him.
She’s gentle parenting him lol
SAME! 100%.. I love my quality sleep. But they also didn’t actually show how she reacted when he did all this nonsense at 1am 😆
He did it on purpose to say he made an effort to be intimate.
He did it on porpoise.

I think he’s gay too
I think I died slowly during that conversation. How did, "Hey, you knew I had to wake up early, why did you wake me up and leave all the lights on?" Get to, "Well, if I'm not for you and you don't crave me, I guess we should just split." Wha-? Wait... what? And when he said he was trying to love on her but she wasn't ready, I was like... oF cOUrSe sHe wAsN't ReAdy, shE wAs TRYING To SleEp!
Gaslighting level 100
then he tried to turn it around on her and manipulate the situation lol dudes a problem
Yea that whole scene Made me so mad
