Re: DWTS 18- Meryl and Maks - Fan Forum - Updates - Discussion

I wish Meryl would put Maks out of his misery and ours too and date this poor sap already.

I, too, have a feeling the ball here is in Meryl's court and I'm not so sure she is ready for this ... that really is my hesitation.  She is from a different planet than him, you see it even in how they choose to dress and hold themselves, and I just don't know if her family would be all that excited about it; this is the type of guy parents usually hope their daughter's stay away from (while mom lusts after him for herself).  But for Mak's sake, yes, I hope she decides to go for it.  She really does seem to be good for him.

Oh yeah, Midwest mom and dad must have been horrified as heck to see Maks and their sweet, adorable All American ice dancing princess all over each other on tv each week  But I saw that they're going to his dance studio's performance in July when Meryl will be in Japan so they must have softened if they needed to towards Maks and his mic throwing and Meryl's butt patting ways.

They remind of me of beauty and the (hunky) beast . I love seeing him with her, he's so careful and delicate around her, I love softy Maks!

In other Chmerkovskiy dating news, I've seen numerous twitter pages saying that the "real" romance of this season has been Val and Jenna, from the troupe.  Kristyn Burtt, who hosts the DWTS AfterBuzz show, also hinted at it on twitter.

I'd much rather hear about M & M, but I'll take any Chmerkovskiy news I can get.

It seems that their parents have met.  His parents were at her dance on ice show in NJ.  I saw a picture of her dad and his mom chatting.  Also I read somewhere that Meryl cannot attend one of his shows but her family is.  Food for speculation?  Honestly her family seems to be pleasantly surprised at how she has grown sensuously.

I agree with the bolded and have heard both of them comment on it in interviews and in a very positive way.

She has lived in the skating world with Charlie since they were children. She doesn't know anything other than working hard towards her goals, with Charlie. I wonder if she even had any other relationships, but with her schedule it would be difficult.

Now she meets Max. I've kept stating she has done a world of good for him, but I also think he has done the same in return for her. She has experienced something outside of the skating world. Her friend said she has discovered a different side of herself, to come out of her shell, can't remember the exact wording. This has been a wonderful experience for both of them.

As mentioned in many posts upthread, the way he lovingly holds her hand, or wraps his arms around her, or the way he looks at her, he has realized what a gem she is. She has such an innocence about her which is so very different from any of the other flings he may have had.

On another note…he and his dad are some fine looking men.

Q: Your old partner Maks is coming back—and he’s paired with Olympic ice dancer Meryl Davis. Will it be hard to be unbiased?

Erin:“I know, I’m so glad! I think it will always be hard to be unbiased towards him because he’s part of my family—my mom and dad love him for how great he was with me when I was one the show. I’m not judging, so if anything I think I’ll be able to understand what Meryl’s going through because they will go through their off weeks. She, luckily, is an athlete and can take some very hard coaching, which she’s going to be getting with Maks, but congratulations to Maks because he’s getting a partner that’s actually very, very talented.”

This is from an interview Erin Andrews did with Parade magazine in early March.
I would think that Meryl's parents would feel the same way towards Maks as Erin's do. He cared and protected their daughter, how can they not respect that?

What a great looking Dad! I see he has the same style sense. Very chic looking!

Wait, am I reading that correctly? Meryl can't attend one of Mak's shows, so her parents are going in her place? I find that very interesting

Haha you're reading it correctly. It's called Sway by his dance studio with Val and Tony and that teenage girl whose name I cannot spell that danced with Val. And the studio is also making Maks and Meryl tshirts  There's something going on that's more than friendship but what no one knows including them I think.

The bolded made me   It's Zendaya.   I hope we'll get some footage from this event, as I know they're not releasing anything per Dance With Me's twitter. Want to see Zendaya and Val dance again, so people filming that stuff and putting it out online is my only option.

Haven't been on the board for a couple days - finals time - but so glad to see this thread! Maybe I'm reading too much into things, but yeah, I believe there's definitely something there. What will come of it - who knows - but considering Meryl's parents is attending the SWAY event while she's in Japan... that would be a clue to me that something is going on between the two - all the kissing, touching, handholding notwithstanding.
