Hi everyone! This is my first time to post. I don't understand why Laura and Kim give Dominick such a hard time. How else can he let them know that he is ready to get married? I kinda feel sorry for him having defend himself every week. My top 3 are Evan, Hank and Dominick. Especially after watching tonight's "meet the family" episode.

Dom seems immature to me, also, so I have to agree with Laura and Kim on this. Last week sealed it for me, as far as he is concerned...he had way to much trouble controlling his temper and emotions...a sign of immaturity. He will probably make a good husband some day, but he just doesn't seem to be in the right place for it emotionally yet. I agree with you about Hank though, and while I'm not yet sold on Evan, I'm warming to him a little.

Hi TXBluebonnet! Welcome to the boards. Dom is cute and seems nice but I have to agree that he is just too young to be getting married. He came right out last week and said he wasn't ready for kids. Lisa is. I do agree with your top 3. Like HappyDayz, I'm starting to warm up to Evan.

I agree TXBluebonnet. I don't see that Dom is too immature to get married or too young. I got married when I was 22, and we were both still slightly immature. We had a lot of fun when we were first married, and we have been married 7 years. The concern is of course about the kids (she wants them, he doesn't) but I think the age and the maturity are not an issue.

I also agree that Hank, Dom and Evan are the top three. In fact I think after this week Evan, in my opinion, is tied with Hank. I really liked him after this episode!

You people see what you want to see.

Dom is only 22 true, but Lisa is only 25. Why is it no one believes Dom but everyone believes Lisa?

As for him showing off his temper. Hank has shown his temper too. And I thought his response back to Kim's question was kinda heated. He said he don't like some of the guys and is coming across as having a dark side. I've also seen a temper with Joe also. Even ken got mad at the girls a couple weeks ago.

I think Dom although in the bottom three last week is in the top three in the overall competition. Above Robert, Renda and Joe.

I agree with Wacko Jacko 100%! I think that it is unfair that everyone is constantly judging Dominic based on his age, and everyone thinks he's too immature and temperamental but so is Hank and he did prove that. I say that since Dominic has been under the microscpoe of Kim and Laura constantly, has caused him to act like how he is....I don't blame him at all!

As for the age factor, Lisa isn't much older than him. And for sure I think that in terms of the current standings I see Evan and Hank tied and Dominic is right behind them. I see Dominic above Robert, Joe and Renda in terms of compatibility with Lisa.

I am a little worried though because Kim told America to stop voting for Dominic and free him because he is young and sexy blah blah...and maybe America really does stop voting for him?!? We'll find out but I really hope to see him make it further.

The thing about Dom is that he has said he isn't ready to have kids and Lisa says she is ready to have kids now.

I do agree with you that Dom should be in the top 3.

I also agree with you that Hank showed his darker side last night. I was glad when Kim called him out about the "Jekyl & Hyde" comment from last week. I also noticed he was one of the guys whipping a ball at another guy in the house. Plus he put on the moves on Lisa on his date (which I loved) He's not so bashful anymore and I saw something in him last night that actually put him down a notch on my list. Maybe he does have a temper problem. We'll see. I still think he's a cutie

What I can't understand is why is Lisa so ready to have kids NOW! So what if right this minute Dominick doesn't want to have kids. Shouldn't they be married for a while, get to know each other better before they make the decision to have kids? It doesn't mean that in 6 months or so he won't be ready for kids. Also, so he had trouble handling a few pre-teens. Laura and Kim took that as he's not responsible enough to have children. Well let me tell you, kids start out as babies and parents learn how to handle kids as they grow. Unless they are adopting four 8-10 year olds I don't see a problem there. Give it up Laura and Kim!

$10 says Lisa has her first kid when she's 30--no matter if it's with someone on this show, her long-time-boyfriend, or someone she meets later. No way will she have kids right away. And she would be the luckiest girl in the world to end up with Dominic--she would have a full happy fun life to look forward to with someone who would always put her first and always take care of her.

I agree with the last couple of posts.

Dom is getting unfair criticism.

I wonder how Hank would react if he got the criticism that Dom got. I bet worse.

...it's still too young for anyone to get married! Now granted there is always the exeption...but, IMHO marrying in your 20's is just plain risky!

On the other hand...putting a bunch of 30-somthings on TV looking for the ideal match, would NOT attract the kind of ratings the station wants! Therefore, we get a bunch of 20-something's who THINK they are ready for marriage, when in fact, they are really just ready to start enjoying life as a single individual.

If you are under 35 and disagree with me. Check back when you hit that age. I would bet my money that you would agree with me by then.

Regards...

If Cupid didn't have Dominic and Evan on this show they would NEVER have gotten anyone younger than 30 to watch it. As it is, there are a ton of teenage and early 20s in the show's audience. CBS should consider that if Dominic gets bumped--he is the only one consistently described as HOT HOT HOT on message boards and chat boards. Lose him and lose your audience. He should at least be on the last show (which will have about several guys still on it since we apparently have only two more shows) just to keep the ratings numbers up for advertisers.
