'MAFS' Season 16: Fans slam Kirsten for constantly shooting down Shaquille, say 'she is repulsed'

Things become a bit awkward when Shaquille approaches Kirsten for a kiss and she again refuses him

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: In the latest episode of 'Married at First Sight', Shaquille asks if he may kiss Kirsten as they discuss their growing connection. There is an awkward silence before Kirsten says no, leaving Shaquille noticeably unhappy. This is not the first time Kirsten has rejected her husband. At this point, 'MAFS' fans are tired and concerned that this will be a LONG season.

While last week's episode gave fans a glimpse of Chris and Nicole's first night together, the rest of the couples prepared for their first evening as husbands and wives. As Shaquille and Kirsten settle in, he tells her how she took his breath away at the altar and how they're both excited to make the marriage work. However, things become awkward when he requests a kiss and she again rejects him. As they leave, Shaquille says that he isn't anticipating anything sexual from the evening.

"I still want to ease into things," Kirsten explains to the camera. "He has to get to know me."

Kirsten claims that she and Shaquille did not consummate their marriage on the first night, which is not surprising given that she has yet to kiss him.

Unhappy fans tired of seeing the couple go back and forth since day 1 wrote on Twitter, "Kirsten said she wanted Shaquille to ask to kiss her And as soon as he does she turns him down yet again. It's going to be a long 2 months." Another one mocked her saying, "Kirsten you wanted Shaq to ask for a kiss. He did and you denied him. You’re so bougie but you don’t know what a caprese salad is nor do you brush your teeth before bed." Accusing Kirsten of breaking down Shaquille, another fan wrote, "Y’all let’s go into prayer for Shaq cause Kirsten finna break that brother down like a backwood and I’m sad for him it’s finna be a long season." A fourth person wrote, "Kirsten is tripping. I would be happy to see my man in action in his element. It's like riding with ya man to do a drug deal, except legal and academic... sounds hot."

One fan further quipped, "Kirsten told Shaq she doesn’t always brush her teeth every night so he can stop trying to kiss her." Seeing Kirsten not stick to her own words, one viewer tweeted, "Kirsten...didn't you say you wanted him to ask." Some fans think she is repulsed by Shaquille, "Kirsten what was that hard breath u just let out when he said let’s make it work it’s like she is repulsed by this man I’m sicka her ass!!!!" A few viewers are also hoping Kirsten be clear with Shaquille, "Kirsten needs to just tell that man that this ain't it."

'Married at First Sight' Season 16 airs on Wednesdays at 8/7c only on Lifetime.
