New topic for Couples Therapy which premiers today Sept 10 2014, for General Discussion.

FYI JuanPablo Galavis and Nicki Ferrell who are in this seasons CT, have a fan forum for those who prefer to post in a Fan Forum section.


about Couples Therapy with Dr. Jenn


Relationships are hard enough, but imagine the pressure of having your hook ups, "bumps" on the relationship road and breakups as fodder for the tabloids. More and more, it seems couples whose matters of the heart play out in the public eye are calling it quits and throwing in the towel on their relationships.

Why is it so tough for these couples to stay together? Looking to shed light on the issue, VH1 will examine the complicated and often misunderstood world of high-profile relationships with "VH1 Couples Therapy."

Thanks for the thread GA. I was gonna ask for one considering I don't think my opinions would be welcome in the fan threads. My stepmom watching this show so I may watch it this season. I fully expect my opinion to stay the same as it's always been in regards to these two.

You're welcome! I'm sure there are others that would prefer a general discussion thread as well!

I've never watched CT, I don't think it's a Canadian thing, but I'm interested in seeing all the couples and what exactly they go through.

For those who have watched, this is season 5 so I'm assuming it's a popular show, is it highly edited, or is it the real deal?

I haven't ever watched either, but I am looking forward to it. I hope we see a Nikki and JPG that might help change the minds of some who don't like them, but I am open to all opinions.

Well one episode in and I can see clearly why these two have issues. IMO JuanPa is an arrogant, stubborn a$$hole. He says some pretty hurtful things to and about Nikki. I'm amazed she has put up with this crap for so long. If I was her, I'd have kicked him to the curb months ago. She can do way better than him and I don't think this "therapy" is gonna really do anything.

I'm glad we have a general discussion because I'm not a JP fan although still like Nikki. I have it recording later so will comment after I watch JP/N. I have no clue who the rest of the people are. I did watch a couple of videos on the site and can see why they'd want therapy (or is it for the money?). I still think JP's a bit of a jerk and don't like how he talks to or about Nikki. I hope for her sake he's nicer off camera.

I guess to me JPG is like a lot of Latin men I have met. I don't know that he is a jerk so much as he doesn't bother to adjust to the American culture, I don't think he wants to.

Nikki is an awesome woman, but what I saw tonight is that she is also a bit of a girl. The whole getting ready thing, it was something my hubby and I had to adjust too as I am a procrastinator.

I do wonder if Nikki still lives at home. It seemed she was a little bit naive.

I hope this helps them both.

So many things to say yikes! Did not like how he felt that Nikki was like a second daughter to him because of how long it takes her to get ready every day, there was a better way he could have worded that. His whole reasoning about why he hasn't said ILU is just excuses. Nikki is trying so hard to make it work & I just can't see him putting any effort into it like even ask her how she feels about it and learning more about how she can fit into the Latin culture. Maybe this did help them if they went on this Bali trip but time will tell once the show ends. Still not a fan, Nikki deserves better.

I've never watched this show before, it was pretty interesting!

Treach and Cicely, I think their relationship is fine laugh out loud This sounds that it's just the way they communicate and show each other love. I don't see anything changing. I'm of ye little faith on Dr. Jen I guess.

The Jersey Shore couple seem perfectly happy and fine and we know they're getting engaged. I'm pretty sure they're doing this for the money.

Evel Dick and Stephanie, why is she trying to get back together with him? Everyone can tell she can do infinitely better so either it's for the money, fame, or she has some super low self-esteem.

Nikki and JPG is just same ole same ole, as expected. JPG seems to be the most infuriating person and I just cannot imagine trying to reason with him. He has no desire to listen to Nikki or any woman that we've seen him with either, everything gets chalked up to her being a "crazy, insecure woman," his "culture," or the ever abused scapegoat reason of him being a daddy. When he interacts with Nikki or another woman, I see his attitude that he is right, Nikki is wrong and needs to stop whining because trying to express independent thought is just her being a 15 year old brat. Nikki puts up with this because...why, I don't know actually. Once they break-up, I think this will be one of those relationships she looks back on, smacks her forehead, and goes, "I put up with THAT and on TV?!?"

IMO he's doing this for the money also and thinks their relationship is fine, and if Nikki would just quit speaking so dang much and shut up, everything would be perfect for him.

MVP comment definitely goes to JPG for thinking Treach's name is Trash. Amazing. laugh out loud laugh out loud laugh out loud


Big: You know, Manhattan has a lot of beautiful women.
Carrie: What an amazing observation!
Big: But the thing is, after awhile, you just wanna be with the one who makes you laugh.

Yup, totally agree.

And, I'm sorry, I don't buy that JP isn't a jerk, but he simply doesn't know how to adjust to American culture. You're telling me that ALL latina women are treated like dirt? Not in my experience. And, even if they are, "cultural differences" don't make it right.

I did watch it all although it cut off a little at the end. I didn't really care about the other couples although did watch. I just get the feeling it's Nikki who's expected to change and to also lower her expectations. I don't feel she's happy about him not saying he's in love with her. You can tell it bothers her and I have no idea what he feels about her. Teasing can sometimes be a cover for other feelings. I guess it's a good thing that Nikki's a strong person. There are times that love's not enough and she wants a real life together. I'm just not sure he does.  no idea

Actually most Latina women I know are pretty feisty and give it right back. Growing up in South Florida and then moving to Texas for college I was around a lot of Latin men and women. I think they are just more direct and kind of give back and forth and that is part of their ways.

It seemed to me that Nikki was afraid of speaking her mind, but I think that JPG is willing to listen. If not, then they will break up, but Nikki who seems to have no problem saying what she thinks normally will need to learn to speak up and tell JPG when he is bugging her. I have hope for them.

One thing that was interesting last night was that they pointed out that Nikki and JPG's relationship is very young. They had only been together 6 months. These reality shows make the timeline on stuff like this so rushed and JPG was not a good choice for that as he is not one who is willing to rush. In real life, how many of us had said ILY in the first six months of dating or had thought about getting married or moving in? In real life that would seem fast to most people. They had barely spent three total days together in the filming of the show.

As for Treach and Cicely, I was having flashbacks to Andi's issues with having been cheated on. It annoys the heck out of me when women do that. Just because some other jerk cheated on you doesn't mean every man will do that. Couples Therapy  - Season 5 - Premier Sept 10 2014 - General Discussion 2292733854 I can see that is how they communicate, but I also think that is not a healthy way for children to see their parents acting. I grew up in a house where my parents yelled at each other and us a lot. For a longtime, I thought that yelling was part of showing love and took it as normal. Honestly, I am so glad that I learned that love doesn't have to have that kind of anger and hostility.

Not sure what is up with Evel Dick and Stephanie.

The jersey shore couple is cute, I think the guy is just young and insecure with having her be the bread winner of the couple and that they will resolve that easily.

Now Jenna Jameson on the previews, she just looks old and skanky. Not looking forward to her being on the show.
