Marrying a stranger is a tough task already and it's another story altogether when you don't really zing with your match. That's exactly what is happening with Michael Jones and Meka Watson on 'Married At First Sight.'

The couple started off on the wrong foot with Meka completely surprised by Michael's question about having kids. She said she wanted to take it slowly but Michael seemed to have everything planned out for them. But, that was not where it went wrong. In a matter of two days, Meka was able to figure out that Michael had different things to say when the camera was rolling and was a complete opposite when they weren't being filmed. 

In a candid chat with the bridesmaids, Michael said he wouldn't want to force anything on Meka adding that wedding night doesn't have to be about sex and that he would really want her to take the lead on it. And that was exactly what happened. Tired and out of the wedding gown, Meka went off to sleep and Michael complied. But on their flight to Panama, he apparently gave her an ultimatum that they'd have to have sex on their honeymoon or else he'll walk out of the marriage. 

Elaborating on it in her green-room video, Meka said that statements such as these hurt her deeply and that she doesn't know what to think of him anymore because clearly, he has double standards and acts like a completely different person when around the cameras. She tries to have a mature conversation with him about it while being taped but it goes south very quickly. 

Meka traces all of what has happened to the time Michael filled up his form, pointing out that maybe when he applied for 'MAFS' he portrayed a different side to himself, forcing experts to think that they were a great match. If he had been honest with himself then they could have avoided the situation they are in right now. However, Michael denied all of her claims saying it's you-get-what-you-see with him and that he would really want to give her some space and pick up the conversation the next day. They sleep in different rooms. 

Meanwhile, fans are not sympathizing with Meka at all, blaming all of it on her for shutting Michael down on their wedding night. 

"So Meka keeps giving these long ass speeches. You made it clear, with your actions and word choice, since the wedding that you didnt like Michael. He felt that energy and shut down. Not sure what you want from a man whom you've never gave a chance #mafs #Marriedatfirstsight," a fan wrote, while another expressed: "They could have discussed it privately as adults. Meka appeared to be playing up to the camera herself. She's just not into Michael and, albeit assinine, that was his way of validating it. Hope they last! #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight." "Meka is already wearing me out. She sounds like she is interviewing Michael. Girl, just relax and let nature take its course. See where it goes. She is too overbearing. Geez!," another pointed.
