He basically ghosted her in person.

Kenneth wasn't just 'not emotionally attuned,' he was completely checked out. I hate that some men do that; just completely detach and withdraw so the woman can break up with them. They will literally do everything possible to avoid looking like the bad guy at all costs.

Brittany is so much more beautiful than just her looks. She was so gracious in a genuinely heartbreaking situation. I wish her the world.

She dodged a bullet here. He did her a favour. She deserves so much better. He needs to marry his phone.

I’m convinced that the show needs occasional appearances from a therapist/ dating Coach to guide the way and truly tap into conversations that matters.

Did you notice how excited Kenneth was to see Clay and AD interacting? He was more "turned on" by their display of love and affection than he was about his own relationship.

I think you hit the nail on the head. Kenneth liked the fantasy of what Britney was, but that didn’t translate into the real world. I really feel for Britney, she seems like a sweet person

Kenneth saying he was smothering her with affection on the boat, when he wouldn't even hold her hand, staring into space while she grasping at him. He really flipped a switch after the AD conversation.

My favorite part of LIB is watching your videos ❤

When he told her this is not going to work. Gimme a hug so you know it's no beef She standing there hurt and he just in his phone unmoved

I was so sad for Brit when he got his phone back. Completely disconnected from her. He seemed so emotionless in their breakup! I was so excited to hear you dissect it

I think waking you up while sleeping (if there is NO emergency like the house on fire) is a precursor to worse violence. It shows they have no respect for that person’s health, well-being, or physical boundaries

He was so dismissive after the conversation with AD. Britney was being so honest but he was def gaslighting her into thinking she was the only one who was seeing the relationship as it was. He was all talk and time showed his lack of emotions and concern for her and prioritizing the relationship and commitment. The boat scene was so painful to watch since he was like a block of ice

What I found most interesting was that Kenneth actually put his phone down in their final conversation. He was attentive when it was time to break things off .

Clay and AD next! They where such a common couple to me, just a cycle that’s I see really often

I genuinely hadnt realized Kenneth was gaslighting her in that last conversation and hearing you dissect his words so clearly was rlly helpful since I can be more aware of behaviours to watch out for 😭😭 thank you !!

Brittany didn’t make a fool of herself but Ken sure did. Shame on him.

One outside convo was all it took for him to tap out?? He wasn’t that into her in the first place. That was absolutely devastating 😢

Repeating the phrase "For you" is wild smh. Performative romantic gestures is the new slick red flag during this sassy man apocalypse.❤ Great commentary

There’s a part of me that thinks Kenneth wasn’t attracted to Brittany from the reveal and had been thinking of a way out. I think that conversation with AD gave him the perfect opportunity to shut down

Kenneth seems so immature.

I think there’s another issue for Kenneth. And he may never publicly acknowledge it

Sadly, I think a lot of men who are deep in the Black Church view wives as accessories, something you just need to have as a man of God because the Bible says that's the way. They don't view being a husband as something they need to really work at and grow in emotionally. To them, wives have all these duties and requirements for how to serve them and the family, but they as husbands just need to "lead" and exist. He seemed completely emotionally cut off from her, but I've seen that often in religious men claiming they want marriage. It's unfortunate, but didn't really surprise me at all. Emotional labor is for wives only according to a lot of churchy teachings.

i knew the relationship was doomed when she said that she wants to be submissive and he got weirdly excited. of course he wasn't going to cook, of course he wasn’t going to care of her, he just wanted a good christian girl to do everything for him.

The last lecture that Kenneth gave Brittany had my head spinning. I had no idea what he even said.

He tried to portray himself as a leader in the pods but all we saw in the real world was a petulant little boy. That woman deserves so much better. She has the patience of a saint.

Give me a hug so you know it is no beef 🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️whattttttt!!!!?😩

Their final conversation was extremely triggering for me coming from a past relationship where I experienced someone consistently gaslighting me - I’m grateful she got out then before marrying him!

I felt that after A.D. spoke with him about raising black children...that got Kenneth thinking and worrying about what the people in his circle might think about him marrying a white woman. It got in his head so he shut her down in a cold manner. At first i was so impressed with how well he treated her...like a gentleman should. My heart hurt for Jessica. She seemed like such a sweet young woman!

I was once in a relationship where the man completely checked out months before we broke up. When I saw what Brittany was going through, as bad as it sounds, I'm glad their relationship got snuffed out quick so she can focus on healing. Being in that space for long can kill your psyche.

That little smile when they break up says the most to me

Ken was giving DL from the first moment. I was beating my self up for judging him but… I don’t feel so bad now. Feel so bad for Britt.

You were spot on. LIB needs to include you in their reunions

I fully agree with your analysis! Brittany tried so hard to stay with him and see it through and it seemed like he just wasn't "there."

Well broken down about this couple, I felt like no one touched on how Kenneth switched up and Brittany was left feeling like she was asking for too much.

I found it so strange when she said “he identifies as black” as well but I saw a teacher explain that they are taught to be very careful with titles and their students. I think that was where she was coming from but I don’t think it needs to be used when it comes to race, more so gender roles, sexuality, etc.

PERFORMATIVE. = KENNETH.

So much of their relationship I felt was colored by their religion. When I’ve been in spaces with really Christian/traditional people women tend to get the short end of the stick. That first night home when he said of course you have to cook I saw that as his expectation for a traditional relationship so to him it seemed like a no brained. Meanwhile Brittany and women are expected to handle most household and emotional labor. To me he was acting in the role he expected to have and she just got a glimpse of how that role sucks for women. That’s why I was soooo turned off by their conversations in the pods, everything was about how they aligned religiously but not who they were as individuals and what they needed beyond the roles their religion sets. When a woman says I want to be submissive my first thought is always, “do you really, do you really know what that entails?”

My wife really thinks Kenneth is gay. Especially after the phone call he made on the way out the door.

Extra buttery popcorn 🍿 for this one!

I think the interracial aspect was a possible out for him for prospective in the show…a family member (which has been proven) came out to say he is not attracted to women, that he is gay and that he went on the show for notoriety and possible opportunities. Either way he wasted and manipulated this woman and her possible experience

Kenneth was very performative.

I totally agree with your assessment that it was the conversation with AD which changed his attitude towards Britt. I also found it disappointing how he then withdrew without explanation and then took the cowardly way out by making it seem like she was the one who lost interest in him. I love your videos. So clear and intelligently produced. ❤

I heard that Brittany and Kenneth broke up when the cameras weren’t there so to avoid the $50k fine they had to re-do their breakup on camera. I mean that scene would maybe be interpreted differently but still all good analysis! I love these videos it’s really helpful even in my relationship! Please keep doing these videos 🥹

With the rumors about kenneth being on the DL, him being happy about her wanting to wait, says so much now. Hes just glad that wasnt on the table or had to be an obstacle. I did like kenneth in the beginning, but if the rumors are true, i felt that. I could see his disconnect and his desire was to simply look good on tv.

Yea I couldn’t believe that “Well I’ll be f*cking at 2am, so if you want to cool, if not idk what to tell you…” 🤦🏼‍♀️

I watch Love is Blind just to see your analysis! I’ve learned so much from you and often implement what not to do in my relationship. Keep doing what you’re doing ❤️ We appreciate you!

I agree! And immediately thought the same after watching that scene. The convo between Kenneth and AD caused a shift in his relationship with Brittany. She dodged a bullet by not continuing with someone who is inconsistent, inconsiderate and values other people’s opinions yet identifies with being spiritual.

I’m a fellow therapist and enjoy your content. I had similar feelings about the AD convo. He seemed to completely do a 180 after that. I think Kenneth thinks he’s much more emotionally mature than he actually is. Instead of having a convo with Brittany about his concerns, he went cold and self sabotaged. And I agree with you that he took the easy way out by letting her be the one with the issues. He clearly needs to engage in some healing work or else these issues will continue, whether it’s about race or something else. I think he’s so focused on meeting the other person’s needs and likely has shame about having his own needs that he just shuts down instead of working through them. I think that speaks to you saying how agreeable he was.

Kenneth has a lot of growing to do. He’s immature and unsure of himself. Brittany was too good for him. He’s weak. I found it inappropriate for AD to doubt Brittany’s ability to raise her own children. Two loving parents with good ideals, morals, and ethics is what children need. He was weak if he was swayed so easily. 🙄 Kenneth was my least favorite person on the show paired with my favorite person on the show. Tragic

I’ve been saying since the DR episodes that Kenneth’s energy shifted since the convo in AD. I rewatched that convo right after he broke up with Brittany and it seemed like AD was not only doing most of the talking, she was also putting words in his mouth. I’m playing devil’s advocate here, but he never really got to say what he was concerned with the entire time. All he said was “my boys are gonna be like ‘yo Ken, that’s…’” and AD just said “life’s gonna life.” Hers was an easy assumption to make considering the circumstances but he never got to express what was really concerning him. That’s my take anyway. Honestly? Between her conversations with Kenneth and Sarah Ann, and what she ultimately said about “nothing was gonna stop her from marrying Clay” in the finale, I really don’t like AD anymore. She needs a good (or better) therapist and to learn to mind her business.

I interpreted that last convo as her politely saying she wasn’t physically attracted to him and him trying to exit with his head up high. He said something about having faith that what’s meant for him is out there. That kind of wording sounded like someone managing getting rejected

it makes a lot more sense with the potential news coming out that he’s on the down low.. it just didn’t make sense to me how quickly he detached from her, even after the conversation with AD. he was literally laying out her shoes to walk in and once someone tells him she’s gonna be raising his black children, he’s stone walled? they even spoke about it and it seemed like brittany did her best to try to reassure him and he seemed comfortable.

YES been so excited for you to analyze this season!

I feel so validated in my view that their relationship was based shared values and trauma, but it never seemed like they liked just talking with each other on day to day stuff.

kenneth pissed me off so bad. so rude and inconsiderate. just nasty behavior. brittney deserves SO much better.

Soon as I heard him talk and seen his mannerisms, I realize he was on the wrong show. I don’t know why he came to the show or played with Brittany emotions like that he knew what he was really interested in was not on the other side of those pods 🐸☕️

He gives off big DL vibes

They were my favorite in the pods. Immediately I was confused and I fell asleep in the part with AD and so I was soooooo confused. And then very disappointed. I also felt if this is the way he handles things - by completely checking out- it will be an issue always with other areas. I’m so sad for Brittany. She is one of the nicest most sane innocent girls I’ve seen on this show so that was disappointing.

Thank you! That’s exactly my issue with this show: everyone seems to be pursuing a fantasy.

Insightful analysis as always. I agree 💯!!

When he broke off their engagement like that, I was screaming at the TV like Tyra “WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU!!” I loved them in the pods and knew as soon as AD planted that seed of doubt in his head that there would be an issue. This is why AD needed to keep her opinions to herself and I really want to know why she felt the need to even ask him. If they don’t talk about that at the reunion, I’m gonna be pissed.

I saw the shift once AD,spoke with him.

Love your breakdowns of the couple.. always food for thought.

I was so excited to see this. ❤

Loved this. Please never stop these videos

I was DYING for this video. Steph always gets it right.

Your Love is Blind videos are my favs!

Been waiting for these videos 😭😭😭😭

Kenneth is gay. I believe. He reminds me so much of an ex who YEARS later admitted to struggling with his sexuality and that’s why he was soooo emotionally distant. Made big promises but never followed through because he just couldn’t see himself long term with a woman.

Kenneth did her a favor as Brittaney deserved so much better. God is faithful and will provide her with the man she deserves and who will be worthy of her. Kenneth wasn’t even close.

I actively look forward to your analysis! You're amazing!

Oooh I ran to this video so so excited!

Faith is a priority but I’m not gonna ignore the other things at all

I have been waiting for this one!!

I love your review of the episode! You reviewed it with so much depth and details. You see it exactly the way I saw the episode!Thanks for your insight!

Your analysis is spot on! I observed all of these things as well!

I knew as soon as I watched this season that I NEEDED you to talk about these couples; especially Kenneth and Brittany! Thank you! For Brittany asking about Kenneth's race I kind of understand if she was trying to gauge any topics that she felt they might need to discuss when it comes to interracial dating? At least that's what I immediately thought. But yeah for a show that is about falling in love blindly, I've noticed so many people have been giving way too much. I felt that Brittany asking about Kenneth's race was different than Clay trying to figure out if AD was his type physically!

I'm happy we're back to evaluating them as couples instead of individually. Love these breakdowns!

Your intro song lives rent free in my head + I welcome it✨

💯 agree with everything you said. I can’t wait for the reunion and your thoughts about it.

I have watched a few of your videos now, and have to say I love them. Thank you thank you thank you for validating exactly how I felt Kenneth was treating Brittany. Specifically how he was projecting back on to her and gaslighting her feelings; diminishing the validity of her comments, dismissing ANY responsibility for any of his actions, and ultimately saying it's her fault. I think she showed an unbelievable amount of grace and patience for Kenneth, and was thoughtful in how she expressed her emotions, and to see him dismiss and ignore things and shut them down hurt to see, and I don't feel like anyone else I've seen has talked about this and addressed it, so thank you because I wanted some validation as well if anyone could see what I saw. Yes, the phone is a bit disrespectful and a way to distance and avoid, but it's too obvious, and MANY MANY Gen Z and Millennials behave this way in relationships, so I'm a little surprised to see so many people latch onto how "awful" it is, when they likely do it themselves. There were so many deeper issues you expressed here from Kenneth's side, so again thank you for articulating them and giving context so concretely. For my interest in watching reality dating shows (while, yes, some of it is still for some drama), I am interested in the way people communicate and form relationships, to compare what I see in my own life and the real world. While not an MFT, I have a BA in Psych and have always been interested in studying people's lives/stories/TV from a psychological perspective . NGL a lot of podcasts/YT/reaction videos are just not contributing anything new/funny/insightful/interesting, and I scroll right on- so it's honestly been a bit of a comfort to find your channel with your experience breaking down these ideas. Again, love your content, keep it coming, can't wait to dive in more and for your insights on the finale as well!

Kenneth gave me zesty vibes as soon as he opened his mouth! I just wish he wouldn't waste Brittneys time! She really liked him and was doing everything to connect with him! He was putting up a wall in every direction! I hope he finds himself and builds the courage to come out and stop playing with peoples feelings! Hope Brittany understands she is Good Woman and did nothing wrong!

Ive been waiting for your videos for a long time ❤️

Thanks Anya. Really love your videos because you always try to give the fairest and balanced judgement on things. Also loving your compassionate vibes

In DR when they were on the boat I got the feeling that he was in his head regarding the racial difference. He acted like someone who was afraid to touch her in fear of some type of backlash. meaning if I touch her she may claim assault later. It’s just the feeling I got from him especially seeing that he never dated outside his race. AD gave him things to think about that he may not have considered prior. Stuff got real and he didn’t know how to communicate his fears effectively

Out of all the videos i saw about love is blind today, this is by far my favourite, i would double like and subscribe again if I could. You make me want to pursue being a therapist, or atleast self teach and u teach me so much with your videos. I have learnt so much about myself and my people around me because of your videos. Anyway, kenneth, no thnx. Gaslighter extraordinaire.

Yay! I love your videos! I hope Kenneth/Brittany are at the Reunion!

Thanks for sharing all this in such a short notice since the chapters came out! I really enjoy your content regarding LIB :)

You're back! I have been waiting on your take! I agree with your thoughts on Kenneth - He tried to be someone he's not and it backfired. I'm just sad that Brittany was caught in the cross hairs

I actually starting watching the show because of you and I have learned a lot from your LIB breakdown videos

I love these videos! ❤.

Thank you for making this video!! I truly appreciate and enjoyed your commentary because the reunion did not talk about this relationship as much as I would've liked. This relationship infuriated me the most and I thought I was a bit crazy because no one addressed all these things I also saw. Great video my love!!

I think its not about the race at all. Its just how he is and Im so sorry for Britanny.

I’m ready for you to do a vid on Jeramey and Laura! I’m going to click on it so fast once I see it uploaded 😂

Excited for this ❤

You are giving me the breakdowns that I have been needing for this show, I’ve watched other videos on love is blind, but it doesn’t compare to how you break things down psychologically, but each of these couples, and for that, I appreciate you!😊

1) I've noticed that no one is mentioning that these people live in a region of the U.S. that is more racially fueled than other parts. They are in a less tolerant place racially and spiritually so them being interracial in a Carolina would play out much differently than it would in, say, New York City or a place where black/white history is less at play. Either way, as a black woman who's been in an interracial relationship, it wouldn't cross my mind to distance myself from my partner. I'd be distancing myself from the people or places that have a problem with us. 2) It's indisputable that there's gaslighting and part of me is glad to have such a clear example for people to refer to. It brings a massive amount of awareness to what it is. On the other hand, I really wish the woman in this situation didn't go through this. I hope she clearly sees that she wasn't the problem and his behavior wasn't because of her. That said, it feels like she confused race and gender but I think she's onto something unknowingly. She brings up the question of why can't we culturally identify in the same way that we can with gender and sexuality? Physical features seem to be concrete but how you're culturally raised can vary wildly. As a kid, I couldn't relate to my black family and classmates. Quite frankly, I found them all to be threatening since my household was abusive and only my black classmates bullied me. Things I loved like reading and musicals always starred and were written by white people. That was the culture most in my psyche. I made associations from that and developed internalized racism; meaning I didn't want to identify as black because I also didn't want to identify as an enslaved, abusive, bully as my life had taught me black people were supposed to be. I've always known that racial identity could feel like a cage. I didn't want to be caged. If we're willing, we can have conversations about this and why Brittany (?) worded this man's identity as she did.

I’m actually glad someone like Kenneth was on the show because I hope it shows some people out there that these types of people in a relationship are trash. He was so focused on the superficial part of their relationship that he couldn’t even take the second to actually get to know her. I think it’s crazy to go on a show where they isolate you to talk to your partner and you want to be on your phone the whole time, did you watch the show? It’s a walking red flag, and I’m glad he was wearing red when he was breaking up with her because yikes. She deserves better and I’m sure she’ll get it.

You hit the nail on the head! Great breakdown and you got a new subscriber from me. Can't wait to hear more. Thanks!
