Why did Morgan from 'Married at First Sight' sign up for the show?

Most people apply for MAFS because they're tired of the dating scene and can't bear the thought of swiping right on another prospective partner. For Morgan, her goal with dating, in general, had always been to find a husband. And this show provided her with what she had been in search of, despite being an unconventional way of finding a spouse.

"After ending my last relationship with the one man I thought I would get married to, I was more determined than ever to work on myself to be the best partner for my future husband," she shared with us. "Once I was finally in a good place mentally, emotionally, and financially, I was finally prepared to start dating again in hopes to find love…This experiment gave me hope that I would find the perfect man to be married to."

Morgan had some key deal-breakers when she applied for 'MAFS.'

While Morgan can compromise on important things like finances and can "find ways to meet [Binh] in the middle," there are other things that she wasn't so willing to budge on when she decided to trust the experts with her match.

"I cannot be with someone who is focused solely on themselves and is extremely superficial or egotistical," she said. "I need to be with someone who is understanding and open-minded. I could never be with someone who's narrow-minded and stuck in their ways. I cannot be with someone who lies or goes behind my back. I need them to be upfront and honest."

Watch Married at First Sight on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on Lifetime.
