Married at First Sight stars Dave Flaherty and Bobby Dodd believe Tristan Thompson and Mia Bally's relationship isn't healthy.

"They're exhausting," Dave pointed out during Tuesday night's episode of Married at First Sight: Unfiltered, which is hosted by Season 1 MAFS star Jamie Otis.

Dave and Bobby, who currently star on the Lifetime reality series' seventh season, were asked to comment on Tristan and Mia's marriage after watching a clip of the couple argue over health insurance.
In the video clip, Mia admitted she was hurt that Tristan canceled his health insurance and expected to be covered under her own plan at work without talking to her first and discussing the cost.

"Do you think they fight fair?" Jamie asked Dave and Bobby on Unfiltered.
"Personally, I don't. I do hear where Mia is coming from, saying that [Tristan] kind of talks over her a little bit. But I also think that's just kind of Tristan's personality. He's loud; Mia is not," Bobby reasoned.
"Talking with Tristan a couple of times throughout the experiment, he was always wanting Mia to stand up for herself, and this is kind of the first time you really see Mia standing up for herself -- and he's not taking it well."
"Yeah," Dave said. "That's a good point."

"So don't preach that you want your wife to stand up for herself and then the first time she does, you get mad about it," Bobby said.
Dave ultimately agreed, saying, "I think as we've seen some of this unfold, I think neither one of them fights fair. I think they fight in a way that's really -- it gets at the other one, like Tristan raises his voice and Mia doesn't really like that."
But on the other side of the coin, "I think Mia avoids things, and I think she's been caught in a few lies, so that's really frustrating," Dave said.
"So I just think this is really toxic, back and forth," Dave concluded.
Dave married Amber Martorana on this season of Married at First Sight, while Bobby wed Danielle Bergman.

While Dave and Amber have had their share of struggles, Mia and Tristan's relationship is very tumultuous.
Not only did Mia lie to her husband about stalking allegations when she got arrested during their first week of marriage, but Tristan appeared to kick Mia out of their home after the fight over health insurance.

Tristan's friend also once spotted Mia's profile on a dating app, so trust and honesty has been tested frequently in their marriage.
