1. He’s shady and secretive.
  2. He’s sexist and condescending.
  3. He didn’t want to introduce her to his family. Very very suspicious for a Latino man who takes so much pride in family dynamics. 4.He promised his family money, but knows he can’t work.
  4. I fully understand Spanish and his tone of voice is whinny as heck.
  5. TLC Translation doesn’t do his bullshit phrases justice, he’s an absolute prick.
  6. His face permanently looks like this 😒
  7. He mocks Ashley’s clear effort to speak Spanish, and it shows his lack of respect and appreciation for her. He reacts and talks back like a little child.
  8. His demand for a new phone was so strange.
  9. He hid big news from his mother and ignored her knowing she’d worry.

If he’s not just acting or following an instructed narrative/role I hope Ashley finds someone better. 🚮

    My guess is that he was different when they were together in Ecuador and his attitude and behavior have gone to shit since he came to the US because he is out of his element, is knowingly deceiving her and isn’t in his comfort zone anymore. In other words the honeymoon is over, like it is for so many of these couples that basically had vacation based “relationships” and when they are no longer on vacation shit hits the fan. She should have been able to figure this out and also should not have committed to bringing him to the US until he resolved his family issues and included her in his life more. They jumped the gun like so many idiots on this show.

    I already hated him, but I couldn’t believe when he called her and her therapist a clown for wanting to work on a healthy relationship dynamic

    I could defend him on several of these, a lot of it is cultural. Ashley’s not perfect either. BUT the way he talks to her with just absolute DISDAIN is SO disrespectful. I’d be out so fast if someone talked to me like that. You just can’t be in a relationship with that level of disrespect. He’s like if Homer Simpson were a real person and not funny

    It’s awful! Would you ever let someone be so disrespectful to you? Watching it is so painful.

    I’m Latino and his demeanor is total douche bag even for us. I wish Ashley was fluent in Spanish cause if she could understand some of the things he says, she would’ve already sent him on his way…or maybe not.

      This is the most frustrating part of this whole season and this segment: just leave him already!

      Don’t put yourself into a decade of debt and misery over an overgrown child who refuses to change.

      Tbh though, she also has issues, I mean, her opening scene was “ugly crying” and having a panick attack as she was driving…over picking up a guy she wanted here. I hope Rico MF Suave doesn’t get tossed to the side!

    He is no catch, that is true.

    But I am a little tired of seeing these nagging spouses running to a therapist because their man child from the developing world isn’t latin prince they had in their head.

    “Look at what I have to put up with!! I want to speak to the manager of relationships!”

    He is not what you thought, break up. Stop wasting time and energy on a man that does not want to change.

      I get it, but also I don’t blame them for at least trying therapy first, after investing so much into the relationships. I feel like it’s one of those things where it’s only hard to leave when you’re actually in that situation yourself. That said, these men are garbage and the women should definitely leave.

    He is just an Ecuadorian hillbilly that found someone stupid enough to give him a free pass to come to the US to reunite with his family. He is not in the mood to act in love, which should be respected. For a witch, she is as dumb as hell.

    I also think he’s racist. He said something about her attitude being in her genes or something. Like what?!?!

    He is clearly not motivated about his relationship with her. I have no clue why some women date boys or men that are not interested in them.

    I don’t think my secrets are any of your business, but it’s ridiculous that you won’t automatically send hundreds of dollars per month to my family.
