We're calling it: The experts give Married at First Sight's Heidi absolutely awful advice.

Oh.

We really need to talk about last night’s Married at First Sight commitment ceremony.

After another rocky week in the competition, Heidi and Mike’s discussion with the experts has left fans feeling frustrated once again.

And it’s easy to see why.

Heidi and Mike’s discussion during last night’s commitment ceremony left fans frustrated. Post continues below…

During the episode, Heidi told the experts about a heated argument the couple had during the week over towels.

“He uses all the towels. We’re talking using every towel in the house and leaving them on the ground so I have no towel when I shower,” Heidi said.

“It’s just inconsideration. Whatever happens, that’s the common theme with whatever comes up with us,” she added.

“I don’t really see these things as problems,” Mike responded. “I’m not a grub, but I do leave some things around. And I get in trouble for it.”

But you see Mike, leaving towels on the ground is a problem.

No one wants to use a used, manky towel, Mike. No one.

Be more considerate, pls.

To make matters even worse, the experts defended Mike's behaviour.

"Heidi my concern here is that Mike may well be exactly what you've asked for and you're doing everything you can to sabotage that," expert Mel Schilling responded.

But it was John Aiken who had the strangest advice of all for the 38-year-old.

"In what way, does talking about towels work here?" John asked.

"When you think about bringing up little things and sweating the small stuff, just tell him that you feel scared rather than beating him around the head."

Erm, what?

Heidi isn't scared.

She just wants him to pick up his goddamn towels off the ground. It's not hard.

This isn't the first time the experts have sided with Mike over Heidi on Married At First Sight.

Since the very beginning of the season, fans have pointed out John Aiken's strange vendetta against Heidi on the show.

During last week's commitment ceremony, John claimed that the couple's marriage breakdown was all Heidi's fault.

"I don't like what I'm seeing," John said.

"You say, Heidi, that you're prepared to do whatever it takes to make this work. I don't think you do. I think you're sabotaging this," he continued.

"I don't think you want this. 'Cause the way you're acting... he's not gonna last. You guys are just starting to become people that are drifting apart."

"Just settle, Heidi. Don’t sabotage your relationship, Heidi. Do you want to end up single, Heidi?"

Heidi I hear your frustration! Towel after towel, thrown to the floor after one use, after all that effort washing and drying them. Annoying! I can relate. However.. Please take a moment to remember, none of us are perfect and we need this feedback so we know precisely how our behaviour can impact others. I strongly recommend, instead of getting frustrated, have a laugh! It’s an annoying quirk. That makes Mike, Mike. Live in the moment. Don’t waste your life stressing over little things. Like expert John Aiken said, “don’t sweat the small stuff”. Tomorrow could be your last day on earth.. Actually a good friend of mine wrote a book about exactly this - “The Wet Towel Monster - The Missus and the Hubby” - Heidi I hear your frustration!

We have to remember the show is edited. How do we know if the experts didn't address Mike and it got edited out.
Also Mike has not considered Hiedi's position because he has never had to in his 40 years. We forget that we can learn, adapt and grow and once we understand our partners needs we can change.
It does not mean he is inconsiderate, he just doesn't know. Talk and ask rather than judge and condone
Love is about exploring, learning, wanting, it is not about being fearful, judging and then blaming other for not feeling enough. We own how we feel and we have multiple choices in loving our partner in their time of their niavity.
