‘Revolting’: MAFS groom Dan slammed over sex demands
Viewers labelled the MAFS intruder’s complaints about a lack of intimacy in his days-old marriage as “creepy”.
New Married At First Sight groom Dan has been slammed on social media after appearing fixated over the lack of intimacy in his days-old marriage to Tamara.
The morning after their wedding, Dan appeared somewhat miffed that things hadn’t turned physical between him and Tamara.
“Geez, she’s playing hard to get, which is good. I like the chase a bit. If something’s too easy, nah, not interested,” he told producers.
“I’m definitely attracted to Tamara, so I’m interested to see where it goes from here. I want to get to know her.”
Dan’s push for him and Tamara to take their brief romance to the next level continued on the honeymoon.
Checking out their hotel room, the 35-year-old gleefully pointed out it was stocked with condoms and asked his “wife” of 24 hours to “just get on top of me” as he tried out the bed.
“There hasn’t been a lot spoken about sexual intercourse or anything like that just yet. Paying short odds, I reckon, tonight, yeah,” Dan told producers confidently.
But on their second night things didn’t progress any further, with Dan complaining that Tamara had “her walls up”.
“I’m looking a bit silly, aren’t I? Yeah, starting to worry a bit,” he said. “I think she’s just being a good girl, just trying to look after herself and she’s got her walls up at the moment pretty high, so I think she doesn’t want to get hurt. At the moment, I just respect where she’s at and I won’t push her too much.”
Viewers weren’t impressed by Dan’s eagerness to take things to the next level, branding it “creepy” and unrealistic given Tamara had only known him for a few days.
"If I don't get a good night with my wife, after after all that, I dunno what I'm gonna do"

Despite the lack of intimacy between them things still progressed romantically between Dan and Tamara.
During a honeymoon question and answer session the two bonded over their shared losses, with Dan going through a painful split from the mother of his son and Tamara’s mother dying.
Married At First Sight continues Wednesday 7.30pm on Channel 9.
