Erik

Whew! Erik is going to watch these episodes back and realize just how sloshed he was. Homeboy was slurring, couldn’t finish his sentences and probably just a bit too loose-lipped.

I peeped that Erik is still trying to compete with the other couples and lied about the two of them having had no conflict and their marriage being perfect. Umm…not quite.

I know there are some who will beg to differ but I don’t think his conversation with Chris was inappropriate at all in the earlier stages. He told him he needed to man up. And as Virginia told Chris later, that includes way more than the bare minimum of simply telling Paige that he has a child on the way.

The only issue I have with Erik is that his defense of Virginia came just a little too late. He should have told Chris, in the moment while they were out with the ATVs that he was doing entirely too much and he could not speak to his wife that way. When he tried to broach this conversation at the dinner table, when Chris was already in the midst of apologizing, the timing was off. And furthermore, Chris is too immature to have handled that situation with any maturity.
