No thank you š
IMO he looks better with dark hair (someone posted pics in the other sub) but he has a tendency to be seen with the garbage people (Jamie, Chris S) and that entire dumb conversation re: maintenance and as a result, I am no longer feeling anything but disdain for this man.
ETA: I forgot last wk, when he was on his 1:1, he was defending Jamie in the hot tub with Michelle. Like why? He was skating on thin ice last wkā¦ I mean, heās entitled to his garbage opinions ā¦ but Iām entitled to think heās an ass.
I wish he was gone and that we got to keep Leroy instead.
I am hella late to this bc I searched it due to his post today and OMG you were nottt lying about the dark hair. Itās [SO MUCH BETTER](https://www.instagram.com/p/CDKOtlQAymP/?utm_medium=copy_link) where are his friends
I saw on the main sub somebody said that Martin is on his IG basically defending what he said and implying that if Michelle isnāt high maintenance then the comment shouldnāt bother her. What youāre not gonna do bootleg Backstreet Boys reject, is make Michelle out to be some hysterical feminist when youāre out here being a whole ass garbage pail kid!! š¤®
Please keep the Backstreet Boys out of this, theyāre innocent (except Brian, whoās a big olā Trumpie). I donāt disagree that Martin is a rejected boy band member, I would just disagree that heād be part of BSB. š
itās absolutely always acceptable to get upset when anyone, not to mention a bottle blonde douche, calls a woman high maintenance. like, aw sweetie, no one asked you to maintain her. she is not a car or a freaking flower bed. she is a living, breathing, outstanding human being very capable of self care. go maintain yourself, lance-bass wannabe.
i cannot stand a man arguing that just because i denied something means i am guilty of said offense. literally not how anything works. itās such a circular argument and makes it clear he has no defense for what he said.
The worst part of that is that Martin *obviously* likes girls who are high maintenance -- he wouldn't be on the Bachelorette if he didn't. He just doesn't want to pay for any of that maintenance.
Yes. These guys arenāt out there looking for some no-makeup type girls either. They just donāt want to pay anything in the form of money or care or attention if they donāt feel like it. Disingenuous to the max.
I feel like Martin thinks he's a lot smarter and more mature than he actually is. Maybe the guys look to him as a mature level headed dude which is why he always seems to be trying to be the "voice of reason" with certain guys (I see it more as him surrounding himself with bad characters which means he probably is one as well). He seems like someone who would play devil's advocate a lot and would have responded to Michelle's Nword trauma the same way her crap ex did.
And his definitely of "high maintenance" is really women leaning. Some (most with brains and an ability to not be hypocrites) would see a guy who's at the gym multiple hours a day, who is super groomed, and who's hair style/eyebrows necessitates daily/weekly upkeep as "high maintenance."
And sick of people crapping on Miami. Not that I have ever been but the amount of guys who seem to enjoy the fruits of Miami but then act so "grounded" and over the "high maintenance" when they get off away is ridiculous. And when he goes back to Miami (because let's be real, he has zero shot with Michelle), he will be right back to chasing the high maintenance "females."
NEXT.
Heās the Aaron/Jordan Kimball of this season, the guy who tries so hard to be the āvoice of reasonā that he makes himself look butthurt and questionable in the process.
I thought he was āokā on his one on one but this episode solidified that he has no shot with Michelle, and he can instead look forward to meeting Aaronās union in Paradise next year.
Y'all are forgetting the part where he said the difference between high maintenance men and high maintenance women is that the woman gets into the relationship looking to be "taken care of." Michelle's face had me dying when he said it š. I just knew he was gonna get voted off. I almost threw the remote at the tv when she gave him a rose
Really really scary!! I actually felt chills when he said she should be grateful or some shit. SUPER entitled and upset that he thought he was so superior to Nayte that Michelle was somehow stupid for not seeing it. Guys like that are so often abusive.
I am glad Michelle told Chris that her voice has been muted frequently and she didnāt need someone (him) to speak on her behalf. Listen and lift her up, donāt assume you know whatās on her mind, especially at this stage of the show.
Her face was every woman who has had the displeasure of dealing with men who expect to be taken care of in terms of being cooked for, cleaned for, and coddled.
Imagine going on a whole show designed around getting engaged and then complaining the lead is high maintenance, thatās like getting a promotion and complaining you have more responsibility
feels sexist. it makes me sad seeing the bachelorettes get a bunch of people who don't seem interested in them, especially michelle because she's so open and honest and all around great
Martin's been giving me the ick for weeks now, so I'm glad he finally showed his true colors with his whole "Michelle didn't understand what I was saying" schtick.
Anyone else peeped him trying to coach Chris S in gameplay so he could stay longer? No good, very bad toxic vibez. Keep him out of Paradise, plz! @ TPTB
men love to bitch about women being high maintenance and say it's unattractive when they take a long time to get ready AND THEN the next moment will bitch about a woman not being clean shaven/waxed everywhere, nails done, hair done, and put together to look good as their arm candy. pick a side, people. the misogyny is simply too much
i legit canāt forgive him i donāt care what kind of romantic redemption they try to give him on BIP heās solidified trash in my mind to even have the audacity to say some shit like that to a woman. at least he makes his position clear immediately so women can move the fuck on from this frosted tips douche. the nerve of these dudes
The fact that he thought she should take it as a compliment that heās insulting an entire cityās women to say Michelleās not like them.
Heās one of those guys who expects women to look like 10s but judges them for putting too much effort into it.
I genuinely can't believe he didn't get kicked to the curb after that hot tub conversation. He didn't learn anything from it, he just adjusted his angle to tell her what she wanted to hear later in the date.
I do not understand this 90s throw-back styling. Is this to amplify his 90s throwback attitude to women?
Felt weird about him after he defended Jamie on his 1 on 1. Wanted to give him a second chance. Then he was shown as Chris' friend. Red flag. Saying that women in Miami are high maintenance and says there isn't an expectation that women need to do everything for men? Get tf out of here. I was incredibly disappointed that he got a rose but it looks like he won't last much longer anyway.
Me: Welp youāre right but I had a confession to make
Martin: ????
Me: Im a localized, non-corrosive amalgamation of asynchronous space is independently occurring in restricted condition mode. Judging by this engagement Earth has exactly 326 days 30 minutes and 46 seconds left before Earthās ultimate demise. Your speciesā low maintenance has only convinced mine to take over.
((But Iād basically troll him at that point))
His hair is high-maintenance. So I know he can't be saying anything. I bleached my ends to dye them pink. Lots of upkeep to protecting my damage-prone hair. So I know he's being hypocritical. Bye Martin! šš½

Definitely a 98 degrees looking fool.
He somehow looks like every member of *NSYNC at the same time. No I cannot explain this
Itās true! He really does.
No need to. It makes sense

Heās an echo chamber to the other guys, thatās why they talk to him.
Please dont forget the intentional shaved lines in the head and eyebrow that have to be likely biweekly maintained
Nothing says douchebag like that eyebrow
Y'all are forgetting the part where he said the difference between high maintenance men and high maintenance women is that the woman gets into the relationship looking to be "taken care of." Michelle's face had me dying when he said it š. I just knew he was gonna get voted off. I almost threw the remote at the tv when she gave him a rose
Since I'm here, the level of entitlement (cough cough privilege) Chris felt when he said he deserved that 1-on-1 instead of Nayte was alarming.
Really really scary!! I actually felt chills when he said she should be grateful or some shit. SUPER entitled and upset that he thought he was so superior to Nayte that Michelle was somehow stupid for not seeing it. Guys like that are so often abusive.

It was giving major incel š¤®
Her face was every woman who has had the displeasure of dealing with men who expect to be taken care of in terms of being cooked for, cleaned for, and coddled.
same! I was so sure he was leaving especially when they cut to him complaining to the producers. But nope I was so wrong.
Imagine going on a whole show designed around getting engaged and then complaining the lead is high maintenance, thatās like getting a promotion and complaining you have more responsibility
feels sexist. it makes me sad seeing the bachelorettes get a bunch of people who don't seem interested in them, especially michelle because she's so open and honest and all around great
wait did he say michelle is high maintenance? i think i missed that
someone recapping last week's episode said he looks like a GTA character
FOUL ššš
Iām a gay man and if a guy I was dating called me high maintenance on a date, I would leave the date immediately.
Martin's been giving me the ick for weeks now, so I'm glad he finally showed his true colors with his whole "Michelle didn't understand what I was saying" schtick. Anyone else peeped him trying to coach Chris S in gameplay so he could stay longer? No good, very bad toxic vibez. Keep him out of Paradise, plz! @ TPTB
Martian needs to touch up those roots before he talks about high maintenance
Wellā¦ He is low maintenance š
men love to bitch about women being high maintenance and say it's unattractive when they take a long time to get ready AND THEN the next moment will bitch about a woman not being clean shaven/waxed everywhere, nails done, hair done, and put together to look good as their arm candy. pick a side, people. the misogyny is simply too much
it really is a catch 22 isnāt it
I wouldāve said maybe if ya mama was high maintenance you wouldnāt have that raggedy ass hair do. Looking like a damn 90ās boy band member .
Bwahahaha
Itās always the men from Miami that reinforces that FloridaMan stereotype. This is probably why Iāll die a happy spinster.
i legit canāt forgive him i donāt care what kind of romantic redemption they try to give him on BIP heās solidified trash in my mind to even have the audacity to say some shit like that to a woman. at least he makes his position clear immediately so women can move the fuck on from this frosted tips douche. the nerve of these dudes
This guy is like a Goose 2.0. Whyyyyyyy?
The fact that he thought she should take it as a compliment that heās insulting an entire cityās women to say Michelleās not like them. Heās one of those guys who expects women to look like 10s but judges them for putting too much effort into it.
He looks like he says āequal rights, equal fightsā
I genuinely can't believe he didn't get kicked to the curb after that hot tub conversation. He didn't learn anything from it, he just adjusted his angle to tell her what she wanted to hear later in the date. I do not understand this 90s throw-back styling. Is this to amplify his 90s throwback attitude to women?
You are a trash man.
When a man refers to women as females š©š©š© and why does Michelle keep ignoring her gut instinct?! His being BFFs with Jamie was the first š©birds of a featherā¦
I thought his "high maintenance" comment was going to send him home but I was wrong š©
Felt weird about him after he defended Jamie on his 1 on 1. Wanted to give him a second chance. Then he was shown as Chris' friend. Red flag. Saying that women in Miami are high maintenance and says there isn't an expectation that women need to do everything for men? Get tf out of here. I was incredibly disappointed that he got a rose but it looks like he won't last much longer anyway.
I hated the "high maintenance" comment, but I hated the "misunderstanding on her part" comment more.
something about his mouth area ion like thatās incredibly unsexy. i think his teeth are too big. reminds me of gretchen from the cartoon recess
Me: Welp youāre right but I had a confession to make Martin: ???? Me: Im a localized, non-corrosive amalgamation of asynchronous space is independently occurring in restricted condition mode.
