Married at First Sight star Karen Landry admits Miles Williams' extensive history of going from one serious relationship to the next up until age 26 had her doing math in her head and questioning things.

Karen, on the other hand, had only been in two serious relationships in her life, and the 30-year-old is older than Miles.
"Age is nothing! I told you, age is nothing," Miles joked, referring to Karen's lack of dating experience compared to his own.
On Unfiltered, host Jamie Otis, who appeared on Season 1 of Married at First Sight, asked how concerning it was that Miles had been in so many monogamous relationships before the show.
"Oh man, that seems like a lot to me," Karen admitted.
"For me, when I'm in a relationship, I give so much of myself to that person, so after a relationship is over, typically, I'm like, 'Oh, you need time to heal or just reconnect with yourself,' or whatever it may be. That's my process."
She added, "I'm not gonna lie, like, I was like, 'Wow, 10 serious relationships?!' I'm doing the math and I'm just like, 'How long were they? How short were they?' Umm, yeah."
Fellow Married at First Sight bride Amani -- who was matched with Miles' best friend Woody Randall -- joined Karen on Unfiltered and offered her two cents on the subject.

"I wonder if he's just counting every girl that he's ever, you know, thought he could see something with," Amani suggested.
"Like, what are these 10 relationships?! Because there's no way he's had 10 serious relationships. There's no way. He's giving them all credit."

Jamie joked maybe Miles needs to knock some of those girls "down a peg" because he probably wasn't in a real serious relationship with every single one of them.
Jamie then asked Married at First Sight expert Dr. Viviana Coles on Unfiltered what exactly qualifies as "a serious relationship."
"Is it the amount of time you've dated or is it how you felt about each other?" Jamie asked.
"I think a serious relationship is really in the eye of the beholder, right?" Viviana shared.
"If it's something that really caused you to think about something maybe more long-term with that person or if you go through some serious things together."
Viviana also reasoned, "Sometimes there are external factors that can really challenge you as a couple, and that also can be considered a serious relationship. I think there's no set definition."
Jamie agreed it seems like more of a "subjective thing."

Karen asked Miles why he had been in so many relationships, and Miles said he always dated with the intention of marrying. Miles explained if a relationship didn't work, he wanted to move on from it.
Miles said it took some time to figure himself out and what he wanted so that the next relationship he entered could potentially be his last and he'd be the man he wanted to be for his wife.
"I'm not a serial dater. I happened to meet some really great women and invested myself and they invested themselves in the relationships. I think that's what dating is about, it's about figuring out who you're compatible with," Miles told the cameras.
Karen and Miles' relationship got off to a slow start, but they enjoyed each other's company on the honeymoon and were able to laugh and have fun with each other. Karen appreciated how Miles behaved like a gentleman and didn't pressure her to be intimate.
Karen revealed to Miles her previous boyfriend had welcomed a child with someone else when they were together, but Miles promised he was "all in" and would help her to feel comfortable and open up.
"I'm excited to prove to her that I'm the man she needs me to be," Miles said during a recent episode.
But on Wednesday night's broadcast of Married at First Sight, Miles shared how he struggles with depression, and Karen seemed a bit taken aback by the news.
"This is not something I expected to hear on my honeymoon. It does trigger a red flag for me, like, I wanted a really masculine male, and I do wonder about how strong our marriage will be able to be -- and if I will be able to support him," Karen admitted in a confessional.
And when asked to rate their marriage, Karen gave it a 6 or 7 -- while Miles rated their connection an 8. Miles gushed about how he couldn't imagine a better match for himself, but he had a little insecurity over how Karen really felt about him.
