#MAFS Unmatchables Exclusive: Ashli Denies Codependency Claims & Explains ATL’s ‘Cesspool’ Dating Dilemma

One Married at first sight The spinoff is giving a person with an allergy to $6 sweatpants the tools she needs to find her fairy tale.

As previously reported Marrying at first sight: Incomparable debut TONIGHT Wednesday, April 21 at 10 p.m. ET/PT and lots of laughs to come. The show follows #MAFS experts Pastor Calvin Roberson and Dr. Viviana Coles in a state of dig as they polish some MAFS hopes that aren’t ready to fit the altar — YET.

After sifting through 65,000 applicants, the experts found 16 including Xaviusa 26-year-old funeral director, who smells of perfume, is in training and prefers the company of the dead to his days.

BOSSIP recently spoke with Xavius ​​about Pastor Cal and Dr. Viviana challenging him to relax and lean on the living rather than the dead.

Not only that, BOSSIP also talked to AshliXavius’ dates in tonight’s premiere episode.

Ashli, 32, is the daughter of a Pastor who wants love and marriage despite being so opposed to the swap that she’s locked her lips for 11 years. Experts want her to not only unlock her lips but also her full dating potential by addressing her “dependent relationship” with roommates. Will Ashli ​​give way to romance or will her date with Xavius ​​fail?

We chatted with Ashli ​​about #MAFS: Can’t be boughtthose dependency statements and the $6 disaster date perfectly summed up the dating scene in ATL.

What made you sign up to be a part of this experience?

We’re in the middle of a quarantine so dating is a little more complicated. I don’t have a lot of dating experience and you know I have my best friends who are also seen on the show and they can tell you certain things from their point of view but there’s always room for growth and outside advice on what you can become better at in the dating arena. So I thought this would be a fun way to do it.

Before Inapproachable What is the ATL dating pool like for you?

We both know the dating pool in Atlanta is more of a wading pool. My dating experience is really like non-existent and so when I date…(sigh) I’m using a dating app and I went on a date with this guy. And he wore a $6 pair of Walmart sweatpants on the first date.

How do you know they are $6?!

They’re not as pretty as the sporty, tapered fit [sweatpants] they are just loose, the legs are wide, there is no elastic in the lower hem. It was worse. It was like literally he was about to go to the gym, we met at a bar and he was about to go to the gym. I feel ashamed to be with him. That’s just an example of what it’s like, it’s not poppin’.

Above Inapproachable Pastor Cal and Dr. Viviana are trying to help you overcome your “dependency” problem with your roommate Nakeisha. Do you think you depend on each other or are you just best friends?

We are close friends! I don’t think we depend on each other. I think we complement each other in many ways. We have known each other for more than 15 years now, we live together, we have lived together for more than 10 years. We complement each other, I’m sure there are some things that we can branch off and be more independent of but I prefer to use the word complement, independent of the source code.

So if your best friend/roommate doesn’t like a guy you’re dating. Will you still date him?

I think I’ll definitely look into why she doesn’t like him. If it’s for some frivolous reason that Nakeisha, won’t do it, then yes [I would still date him]. But if there’s a specific reason why she doesn’t like him, I’ll consider it [not dating him]. Of course, of course.

What about the kiss that turns you off? How intimate is it? Is that the swap of saliva? What if you don’t love?

So there are two parts. The first part is like the real logistics of the kiss, the mouth, the saliva swap. You know? There is a part of that. And also you’ll see on the show, I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. There I also had a slight discomfort that I think also contributed to my growing aversion to the kiss.

What’s the best dating advice you’ve gotten from the pros? Marrying at first sight: Incomparable?

I think one of the parts that came from my visit with Dr. Viviana– Another oddity I’ve come across is that I feel like one thing could lead to another too quickly.

One thing she told me was, ‘Just because you’re excited to kiss someone doesn’t mean you’ll end up in bed with them right away.’ As simple and straightforward as it sounds, I thought I needed to hear that from someone else to sign me up. So that’s a really good piece of advice for me.

Now that you have these new tools for dating, are you looking to date? Have you returned to the app yet?

I can not tell. You’ll have to tune in on Wednesday to find out.

When was the last time you talked about dating Xavius?

I spoke to him recently, I can tell. Very recently.

What are your requirements for a good first date?

I think it’s definitely a drink, a mental drink and then something interesting, something out of the ordinary, you know, going to a museum. You don’t hear about people going on a first date to a museum. Or even like ours [Ashli and Xavius’] Dating, dancing. That’s cute and people don’t go dancing anymore. Such a fun story or a picnic in the park, there’s no need to think twice. I think sometimes people think too much about it. Just do something cute and artistic, that’s it for me. That’s what makes a first date so great.

What do you want people to know about you after watching Marrying at first sight: Incomparable?

I hope people relate to my story because I feel it’s unique but at the same time, it’s easy to understand. I was in the comments [of a MAFS: Unmatchables] posted and someone said that they don’t know how to kiss either. I said, ‘Oh, I’m not the only adult** who can’t kiss!’ I just hope people can relate to me and know that they’re not weirdos and that they’re completely normal, they’re fine. You are on your way, whatever your path is. Whatever you decide to do, it’s your choice. Just be bold and stand your ground in whatever choices you make in dating and love.
