Love Is Blind 7x10

1. Beyond just our connection we have…

2. - Like, I feel the love. - Yeah.

3. You look at me, you're like, "This is it."

4. - For real? - Yes!

5. - You have a good and kind heart. - I've accepted you.

6. I know sometimes you don't think it, but I would protect you. I will.

7. - I get to choose our kid's name? - Nah.

8. - Middle name. - No!

9. - Seven kids? - Not shaking on that.

10. You are amazing, and I think you are absolutely perfect for me.

11. Like I've known you for years.

12. I feel like I said in the pods, everything's just gonna get harder.

13. You're going down in history as the swaggiest punter-kicker.

14. I appreciate that.

15. I'm even more swaggy when you see me in person.

16. - Was I a hot commodity in the pods? - We just talked shit about you.

17. I'm a hot commodity. I wanna see what these beautiful women look like.

18. Nick!

19. Oh, she's jealous! Don't be jealous.

20. I'm a little concerned.

21. We'll see how flirtatious he is in the real world.

22. Your father, if I ask him for your hand,

23. and he says, "I can't do it," you know.

24. I wouldn't blame him. He doesn't know me.

25. I need this in order to get to, like, an altar in two weeks.

26. Did you guys ever have an argument?

27. You know I talk a lot, but he talks more than me.

28. It's just making sure we're both heard.

29. - You're military. - Yeah.

30. Were you ever really into military men?

31. - I was. - Yeah.

32. I don't regret joining the military.

33. - Hmm. Okay. - I'm feeling judged.

34. - Do you enjoy condom sex? - Yeah.

35. We could definitely have condom sex, and it'd be fine.

36. I need sex to be enjoyable.

37. I'm not upset by you trying to help a couple have kids,

38. but they are your kids.

39. This is something I should have known before agreeing.

40. I don't want this to be the way our story goes

41. or ends.

42. Three, two, one…

43. Perfect! Beautiful ring. Who got to pick it out?

44. - Nick did. - She showed me the direction.

45. Perfect.

46. Great! You guys can hold hands down here.

47. - No. Like this? - Okay.

48. Awesome.

49. I think my arms are longer than yours.

50. Let me grab it.

51. - I'm like this. - I'm pretty sure you're taller than me.

52. - Your eyes look pretty. - Do they?

53. Yeah. You have blocks to put under my shoes so I'm taller?

54. Confidence, babe.

55. Put your hands around her waist.

56. - She's taller than me? - Like you're at prom.

57. Not on her butt, right?

58. If you want to. It's your guys' pictures.

59. A few more…

60. Perfect!

61. - Okay, that's your guys' film. - Cool!

62. You picked a good day to wear the heels.

63. I thought you were secure.

64. So it was cool to get, like, some cute engagement pictures.

65. We can look back on it, like, "Remember we were so hot?"

66. - "Nick, remember when you looked good?" Yeah!

67. Show the kids.

68. All right, I have your guys' photos.

69. - Here is yours. - Thank you.

70. - And here's yours. - Thank you.

71. Oh, yeah.

72. Wait. You can take this one. I'll take that one.

73. - 'Cause I read. - You don't want—

74. I read. I want this one for my bookmark.

75. 'Cause it's us.

76. You don't read. You don't need one.

77. We'll get it framed. Little gold frame.

78. No, these are great.

79. - Look at this. - Let me see.

80. - I chose the best one. - Look at that.

81. - That one's going above the mantle, right? - Yeah.

82. Check it.

83. This is right above the toilet. Yep, yep.

84. - Because it's the most romantic, right? - Mm-hmm.

85. The toilet's the most romantic place in our crib.

86. Yeah, you know. We're gonna be in there a lot, so…

87. - What's on your mind? Nothing.

88. - Nothing? - Nothing.

89. Are you concerned?

90. - Yeah. Yeah.

91. It makes me worried that we had one conversation last night

92. and that got you really in your head.

93. There's things we discussed in the pods.

94. And last night, it felt like things were, like, shifted.

95. Like, what specifically?

96. You were, like, now switching

97. from the three-to-five that we'd spoken about to sooner.

98. I was just kind of like, "Is there anything else,

99. you know, that's gonna…"

100. I can imagine things will change over time.

101. Yeah, things will change.

102. But, like,

103. the big things, you know, like, the real important things

104. is, like, really what I'm, like, really thinking about.

105. It's good.

106. It's all good.

107. Let's go inside.

108. I'm gonna use the bathroom.

109. - Need a moment? - I'm using the bathroom.

110. - Oh. - Oh, yeah.

111. All right, what are you gonna make?

112. Eggs with some feta, chili crunch.

113. Okay.

114. I forgot we had grapes in here.

115. Why are you looking at me?

116. Because you're terrible at hiding the fact that you're in your head.

117. I'm not mad.

118. - I'm not saying you're mad. Okay. - I'm not mad.

119. It's a lot. I know.

120. Well, especially the sexual stuff. It's like…

121. I do understand, like, your concerns, and they're valid,

122. but it's also at the same time, like, I'm clearly sick.

123. I have a severe vitamin D deficiency and the PMS,

124. and just the fact that I'm going back and forth from Baltimore.

125. I feel like shit today.

126. I don't want it to be something where you're, like, not satisfied

127. because I am a sick person.

128. I'm willing to, like, work through these things with you.

129. Yeah, I just assumed if you're sick, like…

130. I wish I didn't have to explain why.

131. The reason that I, like, brought it up now is just, you know,

132. we don't have a lot of time before the wedding.

133. I'm not saying that's gonna be an issue. I don't think it'll be.

134. I'll never try to put you in a place where you feel forced to do anything.

135. I don't need you to, like, feel the pressure to try to prove anything.

136. Before you walk down the aisle,

137. are you gonna be expecting to see something?

138. This part of the experiment was, like, really important for me

139. because it's where we, like, make sure

140. that we actually do have the physical intimacy,

141. the affection and everything I desire in a marriage, and so, like—

142. You're having doubts.

143. It's not so much doubts.

144. It's a big decision.

145. Like, if we get married, that's it.

146. It's like, "I want you."

147. I don't want to sit here and go through this again with anyone else.

148. I just wanna make sure it's 100, you know?

149. Like it's… that there's no, like…

150. Especially something as big as physical intimacy,

151. I just wanna make sure that that's right, you know?

152. And it's not right.

153. It started in Cabo. It was great.

154. And then, now obviously, you're… we're dealing with a lot.

155. And so, like,

156. sometimes you just don't wanna be touched or you don't wanna be…

157. which is, again, fine.

158. I just wanna make sure that long-term that

159. it doesn't look like this.

160. I feel I've been very affectionate with you.

161. There's been just maybe three times where I'm like…

162. "Lay off on petting me" or whatever.

163. I call it petting 'cause that's what it feels like at times.

164. It's just overstimulating.

165. Yeah. And I get it. Like, that's fine, babe.

166. But it's really not fine because you're saying it's not fine.

167. Not saying it's not fine.

168. It's, like, long-term, you know, like, if that would be an issue for me.

169. - Okay. Yeah. - You know what I'm saying?

170. I do.

171. I feel like I've been affectionate with you, so…

172. Yeah. No, you have been affectionate with me.

173. I'm not saying you haven't.

174. When I do give affection, and then there's a "no" or—

175. Do you feel rejected when I do that?

176. Um, I mean, yeah, maybe a little.

177. But again, I wanna be respectful of you and where you're at.

178. If that's not something that you want…

179. I don't wanna come off as if I'm just trying to, like, have sex.

180. Like, I love you. I care about you, and, like, I want you,

181. but I'm just, like, I…

182. It's a big decision.

183. Okay.

184. Can I, like…

185. I'm sorry. I know, like, if you don't…

186. Yeah, it's fine.

187. Like, I still want to marry you.

188. - Mm-hmm. - I want you.

189. - Um, just wanna be like… - Yes.

190. clear, you know?

191. Did you know men always, like…

192. A high percentage of men,

193. when their wives get cancer, they cheat on them.

194. Your health becomes an issue that I'm gonna want to go elsewhere?

195. Yeah, that's gonna be an issue for you.

196. Not even that extreme. Like, postpartum, when you have kids.

197. There's periods before you have the kid, you're not gonna wanna be affectionate,

198. and maybe after you have a kid.

199. This is probably gonna come up multiple times in our relationship.

200. Is this gonna be an issue for you that—

201. That's a fair question. Yeah…

202. - Like, that's— - That's a big thing. Yeah.

203. All right. It's fine.

204. I can't, like, control how I feel. I can't control my body.

205. I'm not expecting you to, like, change or try to control anything.

206. Like, I just…

207. I just wanna have, like, an idea of just, like,

208. what our future's gonna look like.

209. I'm just scared you're not gonna see this through because you're worried about…

210. Like, I'm not on a ledge right now,

211. ready to, like, jump ship, you know?

212. Like, I still wanna marry you. Like, I still want to be with you.

213. I still imagine my future with you.

214. - Okay? - Yeah.

215. Hey!

216. - So this is my fiancée, Alex. Hi! How are you?

217. How are you?

218. - Good. - Nice to meet you.

219. - Nice to meet you as well. I'm Alex. Hello.

220. - Good to meet you. You as well.

221. So this is Alex, my fiancée.

222. - Beautiful lady. - Yes!

223. Thank you! Thank you.

224. You know we call him Drake, right?

225. - Yes, he told me that. When people say "Tim," I always go…

226. You know, I'm thinking of him. They say "Tim," I'm like, "What?" Yeah.

227. - 'Cause that's Tim. - Yeah.

228. His name wasn't supposed to be Tim, but whatever. We're not gonna go there.

229. I really do like the idea of the experiment,

230. the pods.

231. And I won't just say because he's my kid.

232. But Drake, he's really an awesome person.

233. - Yeah. - He's a good person.

234. The very fact that he opened up and was able to talk, because he's…

235. He was very vulnerable.

236. Sometimes, to me, Drake's vulnerabilities can come out

237. as almost like a separation type of thing.

238. Have you seen that in him?

239. - Yeah. - You have? Okay.

240. He definitely gets that trait from me.

241. Don't you feel like that? Don't you feel like I get like that?

242. Yes.

243. And was that hard for you to kind of get used to?

244. I'll admit, yeah.

245. How do you handle that?

246. It has been a little bit challenging,

247. but I just give him the time and the space that he needs.

248. And when he's ready to come back…

249. And I'll tell you,

250. that part of it, as far as him

251. separating and needing his space,

252. that's just him.

253. My husband and I have been married coming up on 40 years,

254. and we are totally different people.

255. You can probably just tell from sitting here

256. for five minutes how different we are.

257. But love makes it work

258. if you are willing to give and take.

259. Yeah.

260. Is there anything you feel like you would have to give up

261. in order to be married at all?

262. Um, I don't really see anything that I would really be giving up

263. besides my single life.

264. We are very serious when it comes to marriage,

265. and we want whoever Drake marries

266. to feel that way as well.

267. I don't want you to think I am taking this lightly.

268. We don't believe in divorce.

269. I even said to Tim, or Drake…

270. …that I understand you're proposing to me,

271. but I'm not even gonna tell my father until you ask for my hand.

272. Because I can't take that away from him.

273. And if I don't have his blessing, I cannot go through with this.

274. - For us, whew! We've been through a lot. - Yeah.

275. But no matter how hard it was

276. or how we processed it differently,

277. the ability to respect his viewpoint

278. and for him to respect my viewpoint is what kept us

279. and keeps us together, I think.

280. I know your family has been through a lot.

281. I really honor your marriage and your relationship.

282. My dad and my stepmom have been married for 25 years.

283. - And I know that marriage isn't easy. - Mm-hmm.

284. I just wanna make sure I have, like, that solid partner-teammate that

285. really isn't gonna, you know, fold on any type of situation.

286. I always can depend on them, even if I'm really annoying him,

287. or vice versa, or we're just not seeing eye-to-eye.

288. Like, that's still my husband.

289. I still respect him, and I'm never gonna turn my back on him.

290. When I say, "For better for worse," I mean that in all aspects.

291. If he can be your best friend. Do you laugh more than you don't?

292. - Then you're winning. - Yeah.

293. - That's a win right there. - Same.

294. - Mom and Dad, you wanna sit outside? - Yeah.

295. - Yeah, sounds nice. - Get some fresh air.

296. We'll be outside.

297. I think she's a nice young lady

298. that I think you could spend your life with.

299. What I see is, you know, a beautiful person.

300. - Yeah, I agree. - Inside and out.

301. You truly felt that before you met her in person?

302. Yeah. We did bond on so much of the deeper stuff.

303. She is my first ever fiancée for a reason,

304. but I don't think we're always in sync

305. when it comes to some of the lighter things

306. and how we joke around.

307. You know, I'm not physically affectionate. Do not touch me.

308. That's just how I am, but that's something that she wants all the time.

309. But if we just got in an argument, I'm not gonna wanna cuddle.

310. I don't know exactly what we're talking about,

311. but when you are in a relationship,

312. a marriage,

313. you kind of have to, like,

314. be open to what hurts your partner.

315. Yeah, I get it.

316. There's no one perfect.

317. You're never gonna find perfection.

318. When you talked to her in the pods

319. and you got down on your knee,

320. you were sure. You were there.

321. I can't say enough.

322. It doesn't matter how long you've known somebody,

323. you're still gonna have to go through some drama.

324. That's just a part of the process of becoming one.

325. It's not easy to become one with two minds.

326. Sho ain't.

327. You agree?

328. Yes.

329. I do feel like you're ready for marriage.

330. I do feel like you're ready for a family.

331. And if you

332. and Alex become a family,

333. you're both our family,

334. and you both have all of our support.

335. Thank you.

336. I trust your instincts,

337. and I trust your heart,

338. and I trust your mind.

339. So tell us where to be.

340. Just don't be late.

341. - I like how you looked at him. - Yeah.

342. When I say that something is our superpower,

343. I'm not being corny. We're just really fucking good at communicating.

344. - What you crying about? She's sad.

345. She's sad?

346. She didn't lie on the couch with me all day.

347. Hmm.

348. Um, I don't hate you, you know.

349. - I'm just disappointed in you. - Yeah.

350. And I am trying to navigate a million emotions at once.

351. I'm not taking it lightly, even that you're here talking.

352. Because you didn't have to come back.

353. - You didn't have to talk. - Yeah.

354. It says a lot about how I feel about you and us.

355. Yeah.

356. 'Cause I don't think I would do this in any other scenario.

357. I do wanna give myself time.

358. And the first step starts with knowing more about that dynamic.

359. Yeah.

360. I had a very close friend, her and her wife wanted to have a baby.

361. And they couldn't afford a sperm donor.

362. I thought that was God telling me, you know, "Help someone else."

363. And it felt good.

364. Do the kids know what you look like?

365. Hmm, I don't think so.

366. Well…

367. I guess the only thing we can do is…

368. take it hour by hour.

369. So we'll try?

370. Yeah.

371. Yeah, we will give it a try.

372. I still don't know how I feel about it.

373. Yeah, I know. That's why I said, "Just try."

374. I'm not asking you to accept.

375. If you stay here, I'll sleep out here.

376. Like, seriously. And I'll give you the space that you need.

377. If it gets to that point where you're like, "I know it's not gonna happen,"

378. I'm okay with that.

379. You could wake up the day of the wedding and feel like, "I'm not doing this."

380. Or I could walk down the aisle and think that.

381. Whatever it is.

382. If it's not yes, I can't be upset because I know we tried.

383. I know you tried because I know this is, like, a whole lot for you.

384. Really feels like we've been together for years.

385. Feels like we've been together forever.

386. Forever.

387. - I'm scared now. - What are you scared of?

388. This not working.

389. - Hmm. - Told you. If this isn't it, this is it.

390. This is gonna be fun.

391. - Hi. Hi.

392. - Garrett and Taylor. - Nice to meet you.

393. So nice to meet you.

394. - Thanks for having us. - Yeah.

395. - Get settled and we'll get started. Sure.

396. My dad gave me a bunch of love letters from my grandparents.

397. Oh, wow, what a treasure.

398. Yeah, a lot of them.

399. So the one that I picked out

400. from the stack of them the day before our engagement happened

401. was the one that my grandpa was asking my grandma to say "yes."

402. And it had all the words that I was struggling to put together

403. into all the things that I wanted to say.

404. - My grandparents, they're no longer here. Sure.

405. But they were able to be part of a really special day

406. in a different, like, cosmic way.

407. And I think for, like, our wedding,

408. it's also a way that they can be part of it.

409. Absolutely. May I see?

410. - Of course. - So beautiful.

411. This is not something you see often today.

412. - No, this is unusual, incredible. - The digital world…

413. Garrett and I have, like, kind of busy schedules too sometimes,

414. so we've been leaving letters and hiding them so we can find it later.

415. Just thinking of each other.

416. So we were thinking of having a letter-writing station at the wedding.

417. And maybe, like, what we write today could just be like…

418. Like a motivator for it, maybe just above and the letter-writing station down here.

419. Yeah.

420. Is there a phrase in there that really strikes you?

421. I think it's…

422. "I don't want to leave you so speechless that you can't say yes."

423. That is a great quote.

424. It would be really fun if you worked on that sentence,

425. and, Garrett, if you worked on the sentence that really struck you.

426. Okay.

427. Hmm. How do I wanna do this?

428. Why am I overthinking how to write an "A" right now?

429. You're doing great, baby.

430. - Yeah? - Yeah.

431. - Are you peeking? - No.

432. I just know you're doing great.

433. I'm wondering if we can do something special for, like, your parents.

434. Especially for your mom.

435. She will appreciate that thought, at the very least.

436. She may not want to be part of it, but we can at least talk to her about it.

437. You think she might not come?

438. She's struggling with it, but we can do something that would be like…

439. make her feel more a part of it and comfortable about it, you know.

440. Hmm.

441. I'm sure she'll love to have you as a daughter and will fully embrace that…

442. - No, I know. - …when that day comes, but…

443. I would be perfectly happy just to have you say you would marry me.

444. I feel like I'm bungee jumping again.

445. Spider-Man over here.

446. This is so fun.

447. Come on, Miss Karate, you got the balance.

448. Oh, my God.

449. - Hurry up! You're so slow. - Holy shit.

450. Holy crap, that is crazy.

451. That was so embarrassing. I need to compose myself.

452. Yeah, that's gonna hurt.

453. I have a stomachache now.

454. Do your balls hurt?

455. Okay.

456. - Good job. - Thanks.

457. That was lots of fun.

458. It was.

459. You led some of the time. I led some of the time.

460. - It's a team effort. - Who do you think did better?

461. I would say you, but I learned. You showed me the way.

462. Your icks are starting to become just funny to me.

463. - My icks? What was one of my icks? - Yeah.

464. Just you, like, you know, trying to get through it.

465. - And then I went through it with grace. - Yeah, I did it wrong.

466. I did it way wrong.

467. - No, you're okay. - I know.

468. - I don't look like a dumb-ass? - I'm just being hard.

469. Yeah. You're starting to accept me for who I am, right?

470. Yeah. You think, like, you're ready to get married in two weeks?

471. Yeah.

472. Meeting your family and having that go well

473. and then meeting my family and having that go well,

474. getting both of their support, that was really important for me.

475. I think it's nice to have family and friends' opinions,

476. but I don't really care what anyone else thinks.

477. My opinion is the only opinion that matters.

478. No one's making the decision for me, except myself.

479. - Right? - Yeah.

480. So you didn't really answer my question. Are you ready to get married in two weeks?

481. - Yeah. I said, "Yeah." - Okay.

482. I do wanna get married.

483. You've made me realize with some of your hard questions

484. what I do need to work on to mature and be able to get married, right?

485. Because it's a big commitment, no fucking joke.

486. You've never really had to think about anybody else, right?

487. Now you do.

488. I want you to be an active listener, an active partner.

489. I don't wanna have to, like,

490. always have to be the first one to start a deep conversation

491. or, like, initiate sex.

492. I think it's all about, like, initiative.

493. When we were in the pods, you were talking about how much I read.

494. You were like, "I'd love to read." Have you read?

495. - I haven't had a chance to. - Okay.

496. When I have free time…

497. Maybe last night, instead of going to watch the game, I could've read.

498. - But, you know— - Yeah. Priorities, right?

499. There are little things, like in Mexico, I couldn't figure out the lights.

500. You got pissed when I couldn't figure out the 50 fucking lights,

501. but that wasn't, like, a one-time thing, right?

502. "Hey, Hannah, you know where the disposal is?"

503. Mm-hmm.

504. You didn't say I was stupid, but you're like,

505. "Nick, you should know this."

506. Sometimes I feel like, you know, you do think I'm…

507. maybe sometimes, like, a level below you. You know what I mean?

508. I just wanna be treated as an equal.

509. I think you get treated like an equal when you start contributing like an equal.

510. I think when I'm hard on you and say mean things, like,

511. you feel like I think that you're, like, below me.

512. You're not as mature as me,

513. or I think you're stupid or dumb or whatever.

514. And I don't mean to make you feel like that,

515. but sometimes I feel like, at 28 years old,

516. you should know how to do things, so it just frustrates me.

517. I'm not here to date someone.

518. I'm here to actually have a person for the rest of my life, you know.

519. - Yeah. I'm the same way. - Yeah.

520. As long as I'm being truthful to myself,

521. as long as I'm working as hard as I can for you.

522. As long as I know the end goal, and we have that end goal in common.

523. - Yeah. - To get married.

524. And I'm working towards it. That's all I can do.

525. Are you ready to get married in two weeks?

526. I think I'm mature, and I'm ready.

527. I wanna make sure you're mature and ready for it.

528. I've definitely, like, matured,

529. I feel like, a good amount since I've been with you.

530. - Right? Without even realizing it. - Mm-hmm.

531. And I'm growing.

532. Behind every great man is a greater woman, you know?

533. Yeah, for sure.

534. I can always look into your eyes and be like,

535. "This is the woman I fell in love with," you know.

536. - I like that. - Yeah.

537. I wanna talk to you about the wedding planning.

538. I talked to the wedding planner today while you were at work.

539. - All right. Let's go to the bed.

540. Because I have a little surprise.

541. - Voilà! - Aww.

542. - Rose petals. - Rose petals.

543. Okay, so we're gonna do boho glam.

544. - How does the glam come with the boho? The sophistication.

545. - Okay. Mother-son dance, do you wanna do that?

546. Yeah, that'd be cool. Um…

547. - Are you doing the dance with your mom? - No.

548. - Is it 'cause she doesn't want to? - No, I think 'cause I don't want to.

549. Oh, okay.

550. Okay, go ahead, baby.

551. She asked about our fathers.

552. - We were both raised by single moms. - Mm-hmm.

553. Essentially, when your father passed, and then my father decided to…

554. - You know, leave. - Right.

555. Do you wanna honor your father?

556. - So… - Like a picture?

557. I was thinking, like, in the entrance where people are signing in or whatever,

558. they can just, like, have his photo.

559. Let's do that. Make sure I don't forget.

560. Our parents are gonna sit next to each other.

561. - I think that's a good idea. - I would love to not have an aisle.

562. So we're just descending from the heavens to the altar?

563. - Walk in from the side? - We could.

564. Here's, like, where we stand, right? This is the little altar.

565. There goes me. There goes you.

566. We have smiles on our faces 'cause we're getting married.

567. You have hearts all around your head 'cause we're getting married.

568. - You're gonna say "yes." - Right.

569. - Okay, the point of this was… - Okay, sorry.

570. I hate that separate shit.

571. We're bringing two families together, two friend groups together.

572. We're bringing two lives together.

573. - Put it all together. - Yeah, I like that.

574. - Great ideas, baby - You only get married once.

575. Yes.

576. - But also twice. - Okay.

577. Right.

578. I want this marriage to look different from your previous marriage.

579. - No, it's definitely gonna be different. - Yeah?

580. But I don't want you to be thinking of that.

581. I haven't been thinking about your previous marriage,

582. but when I sit here and look at it like this…

583. …I did think about your previous marriage.

584. And so…

585. I definitely don't wanna do any more wedding planning without you.

586. - I will say. - Yeah.

587. How are you feeling? How are you feeling now? Let's talk about that.

588. Um…

589. Obviously, I suck on my period, so…

590. I'm back to my normal energy level.

591. - You know where I stand on affection and… - Yeah.

592. I think we kind of figured that out too.

593. We did.

594. We figured that out quickly.

595. - Yes. - Which is good.

596. Now, you know, once a month.

597. No, that's fine. Yeah.

598. Well, yeah, it's fine.

599. - Of course. - But, yeah, like…

600. Do you have any doubts right now about us making it to the end

601. and getting married?

602. Um, I don't have, like, any major doubts or anything.

603. I think what I have right now is just the normal.

604. There's still stuff to plan.

605. There's still stuff to figure out.

606. - I have, like, those nerves. - Yeah.

607. But in terms of big-picture, like, you know, doubts

608. or things that I'm concerned about

609. that would potentially make me…

610. - Derail us. - Derail us? No.

611. I'm glad to hear you're not having, like, doubts.

612. 'Cause I don't wanna seem…

613. I'm gonna be honest. I don't wanna seem needy.

614. I'll probably need clarity throughout until we make it.

615. Don't feel like you're being needy by, like, wanting

616. to have some sort of clarity about where I'm at.

617. Do you feel sure about us getting married?

618. Yeah.

619. - Yeah, I do feel sure. - Okay, you do feel sure?

620. - Yeah. - Okay, I just needed to clear that up.

621. - I'm good. - Okay.

622. I see myself at the altar with you, like, saying yes.

623. I'll have nerves, but once I see you, it just kind of melts away honestly.

624. - I'm good. There's nothing to worry about. - I hope so.

625. Yeah. No, honestly.

626. - No, like, I do feel really good, so… - Good.

627. - Yeah. - Yes, I feel good too.

628. - Feeling pretty confident. - Yeah.

629. We'll be good.

630. - Love you. - Love you too.

631. Mm. Mm.

632. Mm.

633. Mm. Mm.

634. - What's up? - Hey, how are you?

635. - I'm good. How are you? - I'm all right.

636. - Let me know when you're ready to talk. - I haven't eaten all day.

637. Do you wanna talk now?

638. You want me to sit over there?

639. I mean, I would rather talk to you intently. Yes.

640. Okay.

641. What's up?

642. - I have a lot to say. - Okay.

643. Some things happened

644. in regards to my parents that I didn't really appreciate.

645. Like?

646. - Would you like me to tell you? - Yeah, for sure.

647. I understood you were sleepy,

648. but my parents drove up here ten hours to meet you.

649. And as soon as the cameras cut,

650. you decided to go to sleep at the first opportunity.

651. These are the most important people in my life.

652. - And all I have left in this world. - Mm-hmm.

653. And the choice you made in that moment was to go to sleep.

654. To me, it is telling, 'cause that's just not a choice that I would ever make.

655. Okay.

656. I'm not here to tell you how to live your life, but for me, that was not okay.

657. I was exhausted. I like to take my naps.

658. We talked for hours about you,

659. about what I would be to them as a vessel,

660. as someone to lean on.

661. If it really meant that to you, I would have stayed up.

662. I had been trying to communicate with you all day during the day.

663. - Can I stop you there? - Sure.

664. You say you were trying to contact me.

665. I talked to you three times yesterday. Then at five o'clock you texted me—

666. - But you were asleep for most of the day— - I was asleep for an hour.

667. - We did not text much yesterday. - From five to six.

668. You weren't very responsive.

669. No, no, no, no, hold on. I don't appreciate that, because—

670. - Would you like me to tell my side? - That's not true.

671. Can I tell my truth and then you speak yours?

672. Go ahead.

673. Is that a possibility?

674. - Absolutely. - All right.

675. So I felt like I was not getting responsiveness out of you yesterday.

676. The only other conversation we had was when we were gonna get to the house

677. and what was up with your car.

678. I just said, "Congratulations, you got your car back."

679. - "Keep an eye out for it." - Right.

680. I feel like even the response to that was kind of…

681. - When I said, "It's fine"? - Yeah.

682. I was just saying "Keep an eye out for your tires on your car." That's all.

683. - Yeah. I didn't respond to that. - There's nothing wrong with it, but…

684. The point is that's the only conversation we had that day.

685. - Okay. You're working. - At that point—

686. Do you want me to finish?

687. I'm so confused.

688. - What's wrong with that? - I'm trying to explain. Trying to explain.

689. - Would you rather explain or— - Go for it.

690. All right. By the time you called me,

691. you were ready to talk to me on your time.

692. And at that point, I feel like if I haven't been talking to you all day,

693. and now I don't feel like talking,

694. you don't get to dictate that now we talk on the phone.

695. Okay. When I went to work yesterday, it's a long day.

696. I'm interacting with people all day.

697. I called you, and I let you know what was going on in the middle of the day.

698. Then I even texted you when my car was back.

699. You're like, "Make sure your car is okay." I said, "It's fine."

700. You're like, "Yeah, well, just make sure your tires are good."

701. I didn't respond. Okay, I see it.

702. I read it, and I received it.

703. If you don't communicate that,

704. "Hey, this really bothers me that you didn't respond,"

705. how am I supposed to know?

706. Then, when you called me,

707. I was asleep because I had been running around all day.

708. So I took a nap.

709. And that's when I called you immediately.

710. You said, "I don't wanna talk on the phone."

711. Okay.

712. "Well, maybe if I expressed to him that I do like talking on the phone,

713. maybe it will change."

714. No, it didn't, and it wasn't me trying to dictate.

715. I was just trying to explain to you,

716. "Hey, this is what I like." Just like you could have explained,

717. "Hey, I didn't like that you fell asleep while my parents were there."

718. I get tired really easily. I don't know. I'm not trying to make an excuse.

719. With your parents, I just talked to them for four hours.

720. I didn't think it was that big of a deal to go to sleep for an hour.

721. I really didn't.

722. But if it meant something, you have to just say that.

723. You never said anything. I cannot read your mind.

724. You want me to be this person that is your wife

725. that does everything by the book, on your book.

726. But I can't be doing everything by the book unless you tell me.

727. You have to communicate that.

728. I am ready to listen. I'm trying to understand you.

729. Just like yesterday, when we were on the phone, and I called you again,

730. and you were like, "I don't wanna talk to you because you don't listen."

731. I felt very dismissed. I felt very closed off from you.

732. I was hurt. I started crying because I don't understand what it is.

733. You have to admit, it is not the same from when we were in the pods.

734. And I'm not saying it's all on you, and I'm not saying it's all on me.

735. It's both of us. These are such little things.

736. I am trying my hardest.

737. After reflecting on what I really want out of life and a wife,

738. I have to be honest with myself

739. that the answer between you and I, for me, is no.

740. Okay.

741. All right.

742. If your mind is made up,

743. I have many words to say on what you're saying.

744. - I'm here to listen. - Huh?

745. I'm here to listen if you would like to, but I said—

746. Are you listening just to hear,

747. or are you listening as an open mind to move forward?

748. I'm listening to understand. I am always listening to understand.

749. - I mean, is your mind made up? - That is what I said.

750. - Yes. - Okay. All right, cool.

751. I told you I was gonna take this experiment to the very end.

752. And I did not take you meeting my father and getting him that emotional so lightly.

753. How dare you do that and then just throw it away after two days.

754. It's literally been two days since you did that.

755. Now you're ready to throw it away because I fell asleep?

756. And because I didn't text you?

757. Honestly, yes, I took that for your father very seriously.

758. Nothing has happened to actually do the work to give it a shot.

759. I feel like you don't even see the things that I am—

760. - But have you tried? With what? - Absolutely.

761. - Would you like me to answer? - Yeah, for sure.

762. - Am I gonna get to speak? - Absolutely.

763. All right, so you want me to cuddle with you more.

764. I intentionally rolled over and tried to hold you

765. in that tiny-ass bed.

766. And upon asking you, you didn't even notice.

767. - 'Cause I was sleeping. - What do you want from me?

768. I don't think you realize how much work I put in to do that.

769. - To cuddle? - No. For your family.

770. I woke up at eight in the morning

771. and went to the grocery store and had to hunt down a bunch of stuff,

772. season meat, figure out the grill.

773. That was work.

774. And after that, I came back and did the dishes.

775. If you sat here and grilled a whole meal for my whole family,

776. and I come back to dishes in the sink, I'm not gonna ask you to do the dishes.

777. I'm probably just gonna do them.

778. Maybe I didn't communicate that, sure.

779. However, if I have to communicate that, I am not the one for you.

780. Do not try to make it seem like I'm not here doing my part at all.

781. - We're not gonna spin it like that. - Nobody's spinning anything.

782. I've been given such a negative response,

783. a temper tantrum sometimes, like, an attitude.

784. I just don't understand it.

785. If it's about the dishes, if it's about me going to sleep,

786. if it's about a text, all of that, it's a slap in the face.

787. Great. I'm glad you feel that way.

788. There's a lot I could respond to, but there is no scenario

789. that I see myself standing there

790. and saying yes to making you my wife forever.

791. And with that in mind,

792. and I'm glad we can at least agree, I don't ever wanna see you again.

793. This was nice. I wish you the best of luck.

794. Wow.

795. I love costume parties.

796. You gonna be best dressed.

797. That's your hair things.

798. Oh, perfect.

799. - And it's real. - What do you mean by real?

800. - It's heavy. - Yeah, no.

801. - Your neck about to be hurting. - I didn't come to play games.

802. Ooh. Put these on.

803. Okay. Mm-hmm.

804. - Put them on right now. - Stockings.

805. Oh, yeah.

806. Ooh!

807. My dress.

808. Nice.

809. Nice, lovely.

810. I'm glad it all came in on time. That was perfect.

811. I know this is really surprising, but I don't often dress up like a flapper.

812. I don't believe that. I've seen the video.

813. Oh, good, my beads came in.

814. You should keep these on the entire time. We're just gonna do—

815. Just a blended outfit? I'll give you the suspenders.

816. - Yeah. It's 2022. - Are you trying to choke me? Jesus.

817. It's what all the, like, Gen Z people do.

818. Ow!

819. Are you excited for our flight in the morning?

820. Yes, I feel good. I'm looking forward to meeting them

821. and getting a chance to explain how I feel.

822. - Mm-hmm. Me too. - I honestly don't feel stressed.

823. - I will once I get on the plane. - My dad was just like, "Don't fuck it up."

824. Sounds easy. Can't wait to talk to him.

825. Nice. Okay. Definitely giving Gatsby vibes.

826. - Exactly what I'm going for! I like it.

827. I'm excited to see everybody's outfits too.

828. I think some people are gonna want closure.

829. - Really? - I mean, yeah.

830. - You know— - Is there anyone you want closure with?

831. It might be Katie.

832. You know, we matched up the first couple days.

833. We were each other's "ones."

834. And at that time, I was interested in her, and then I just never saw her again.

835. It's not like I need closure, but, you know, it's a simple conversation.

836. - True. Mm-hmm. - You know?

837. What about you?

838. I'm good.

839. - You're good? We're good. - Yeah, I don't need closure.

840. - I made a decision. I made a decision. - Me too.

841. Hi!

842. Hi!

843. - We getting started right now. Oh, my God!

844. - Hey! Look at my boy!

845. - That's a flapper! Hey!

846. I just wanna make it incredibly clear

847. that if other women from your past are talking to you,

848. you're just shutting it down.

849. - "I'm engaged." - Yeah.

850. - That's it. Shut it down.

851. - Shut it down. Easy.

852. Don't just leave them "unread" or, like, even worse, "like" something.

853. - I totally understand. Sorry. Thank you.

854. It obviously didn't mean anything. Like, I don't feel any sort of way.

855. I saw it this morning. I didn't know how to react.

856. I just liked the message,

857. and I literally did not think about it the rest of the day.

858. She isn't anything to me anymore. She's a person from my past.

859. I know that it's not part of your life,

860. but I do want you to think about how would this make me feel.

861. I hear that, 100%.

862. Yes, especially someone who has been cheated on

863. is putting an incredible amount of faith in you

864. and, like, believing and trusting you completely.

865. You're gonna be married in, like, a week.

866. And I'm 100% here, 100% here.

867. I don't wanna say it's okay right now, because that just wouldn't be honest.

868. It's just really bad timing that we had all day to talk about this and now—

869. Didn't think about it. I should have thought about it.

870. And that's the difference. I understand.

871. Yeah, which kind of scares me a little bit.

872. Like, it's just…

873. I'm just— I'm pissed.

874. Well, the truth is we have an amazing relationship.

875. We have an amazing future ahead of us.

876. I just missed something today.

877. I need a little bit of, like,

878. patience, learning and understanding. I said it was gonna be this way.

879. - I was gonna have some mistake— - You're gonna get it.

880. I've only had an hour.

881. I know. I know. It kills me to even see you upset.

882. I'm, like, fucking…

883. I know.

884. We're gonna be fine.

885. Just, like, if I'm upset and I don't wanna talk about stuff—

886. I wanna give you the space, but I—

887. Because of the timing, we're screwed. We're in this stupid thing.

888. And I know you're upset. It fucking hurts me.

889. We're gonna work through it, be fine.

890. - I just— - Now is a shitty time.

891. Now is a really terrible time.

892. Yeah.

893. I'm…

894. You got this ridiculous lipstick on. I can't even kiss you right now.

895. No, you can't.

896. - Let's go to the party. - All right, hang on, because…

897. - I hate being mad at you. - I hate you being mad at me.

898. Don't do stuff, then.

899. - You look fucking great though. - Shut up.

900. Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness!

901. - G-baby! - Hey!

902. Let me dap you up.

903. Taylor, I wanna eat you up, spit you out. You look great.

904. Hey!

905. - Hi! - Ladies, what?

906. - You wanna go starfishing? What do you… - "Starfishing"?

907. You know I can swim, right?

908. What is he talking about? Don't fucking start with me.

909. Deep-diving for some seahorses. Ain't that what you do?

910. Starfishing, dude?

911. - I hate their joy right now. - Yeah.

912. Look, I'm not mad that he wanted to end things.

913. But for you to end this engagement

914. when you shook my father's hand and looked him in the eye

915. and said, "I wanna marry your daughter," you're a coward.

916. - So you're not gonna talk to him? - No. For what?

917. He said he didn't wanna ever see me again.

918. - Have you talked to her today? - There's nothing else to talk about.

919. - I hope they're not talking about my shit. - What's your shit?

920. - Oh, I didn't tell you. - What?

921. Tyler's got kids.

922. - Yeah. - What?

923. Yeah, he donated sperm a few years ago

924. for a gay couple that he knew, and they have kids.

925. - He didn't tell you in the pod? - No.

926. I'm like, why would you wait in this instance

927. until I feel like this to tell me this?

928. You're gonna be upset. I think you'll get over it.

929. - Yeah. - I think you will.

930. Here's the thing.

931. Every day, this man gets me coffee. He brings me flowers.

932. He wants to stay up talking. He fights for me.

933. And I've never had anyone fight for me. And, like, I don't get sick of him.

934. When he's gone, I miss him. It's not, like, a crush missing.

935. It's, like, a deep connection.

936. But to drop this is like…

937. Meow!

938. Monica!

939. - Where's Stephen at? - Bro.

940. - I'm so happy you're here. - I'm so happy I'm here too.

941. I talked to Stephen on the phone today for over two hours.

942. Oh, my God! Tell us everything!

943. - Did he call or did you? - I called.

944. - We were able to talk through everything. - Good.

945. And be in a good place. There's no excuse for what he did.

946. But, like, he's a good person who…

947. - Fucked up. - Fucked up.

948. But you don't wanna see him, right, like, dating-wise?

949. No. Absolutely not, 0%.

950. - Hey! Look at that boy! Bohdi!

951. - Oh, my God! - Jesus Christ, dude.

952. What you doing? What's going on?

953. Who is that?

954. - It's Bohdan. - Oh, Bohdi.

955. Hi!

956. - Let me introduce you. - Hi! it's nice to meet you.

957. - Hey. - Nice to see ya.

958. It is interesting seeing Bohdan for the first time.

959. 'Cause I did have, like, a connection with him in the pods.

960. Hearing his voice feels very, like, comfortable and familiar.

961. I missed you.

962. I missed you too. God, I'm so happy we can hang out tonight.

963. - Oh, do you wanna meet Nick? - Yeah.

964. Nick, this is Katie.

965. - Hello. So nice to meet you. - What's up, Katie? You as well.

966. I know. This is, like, a little surreal.

967. I've never met Katie before. In the pods, I met her.

968. I thought you were tall.

969. We did have a connection.

970. You know, the first three days, we had each other ranked as "one."

971. - He's so cute. Yeah. - Nick?

972. - Like, what do you mean? - He's better looking in person.

973. - Good-looking in-person? Yeah. - I mean that in the nicest way.

974. No, it's totally cool.

975. So, my ex-girlfriend, the one from six-and-a-half years ago,

976. she texted me last night, and I responded.

977. I just said— like, a like or whatever. And then—

978. - Did you say anything back? - No, I just liked it.

979. - I was like— oh, no, I'm sorry. - You responded to her?

980. So I said—

981. This is different.

982. - I said— okay. - Okay, let me see your phone.

983. - What did you say? - It's over there. I can get it.

984. Can I get it later? I can get it if you'd like.

985. So, I text her back, and, like, just said,

986. "Hey, I didn't tell you this, but I met someone. I'm engaged."

987. And basically, "I don't think we should continue sending messages."

988. "And I hope you have a great life. See you later." Something like that.

989. - You did say that? Okay. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was it.

990. Okay.

991. You told me an hour ago that you only, like, "liked" the message,

992. and now you're saying that you responded to, like, this…

993. objectively, like, connected, like, reach out, something else.

994. Not just like, "I liked it and left it."

995. I just wanna be very clear.

996. Yeah, I didn't just— no, I just said I wrote a response.

997. That's not what you told me an hour ago.

998. We didn't get into specific, "What was the response?"

999. But, yes, that is what I did.

1000. - I think we should let them… - Yeah.

1001. I think that y'all should, you know, have your space.

1002. I would love a moment.

1003. - No, 100%. - Yeah.

1004. No, no, no, I want my own, like…

1005. like, moment.

1006. - Yeah. - Ashley.

1007. - Ten, 20. - Yeah, I'll go with her.

1008. Something, I'm saying.

1009. This is, like, changing.

1010. - It's just, like, crazy. - Hey.

1011. - What the fuck? - Yeah.

1012. - It's weird. - No, yeah.

1013. - It's really weird. - Yeah.

1014. God damn it.

1015. He's supposed to meet my parents tomorrow.

1016. Yeah.

1017. - Why'd you tell me like that? - Yeah.

1018. Omitting anything is a lot.

1019. We don't have any time to play these games.

1020. I feel like he was around Tyler, forgot where the fuck he was

1021. and started telling all of the truth.

1022. I just don't think that this is right.

1023. Weird hearing your voice.

1024. We both looked at each other, like, "I know that person."

1025. I literally was like, "Is that Bohdan?"

1026. Y'all should have a conversation now.

1027. Yeah, we can have that.

1028. - What? - Yeah, go ahead.

1029. - Baby! Okay, yeah. - No, no! Go ahead. Go ahead.

1030. Okay, so was I what you expected to look like when we talked?

1031. - No! - No? What were you expecting?

1032. Okay, I always expected you to be kind of, like, short and tiny.

1033. - Oh, my God! Really? - Yeah, I did.

1034. - So when I saw you— - A short, tiny person. Okay.

1035. - Short, tiny, person. I don't know why. - I'm glad I over-delivered there.

1036. I don't know why. Am I what you thought I looked like?

1037. I guess I expected you to be pretty.

1038. - Yeah. That's a careful conversation now. - No, no, no.

1039. - Because Rams— - You can call me pretty.

1040. - Rams will allow it. - Okay, you're pretty.

1041. Yeah, no, it is kind of strange, 'cause we dated almost till the end.

1042. - Yeah, till the end. - It was back and forth.

1043. So it'd be like, one day, "It's Rams." The next day, I'd be like, "It's Bohdan."

1044. But I needed someone more chiller, I think.

1045. - 'Cause we're both so, like, hyper people. - Yeah, yeah.

1046. Rams is like, "We're so different."

1047. - I was like, "Okay, Rams." - No, no, we have similarities!

1048. You guys are so much the same!

1049. But in terms of our personalities, we're, like, very different.

1050. Yeah, I was so nervous too for, like, the breakup talk.

1051. I know. When I walked in, I was like, "What's up? How are you?"

1052. - Her energy was probably different? - Yeah, you could hear it!

1053. - "Here we go!" - Like, "Oh, fuck."

1054. I think I looked at the camera, I was like, "All right."

1055. Yeah, you know what's happening.

1056. Seeing Bohdan, it just feels like he's a friend.

1057. No doubts about my relationship with Ramses.

1058. I made the right decision.

1059. Seeing Bohdan really confirms that, if anything.

1060. - To the boys! - I'm here for the boys.

1061. One time for the boys!

1062. Nick's cute. I told her. He's much cuter than—

1063. - No, he is much cuter. - Yeah.

1064. I feel like that sounds bad, but I just said it, so…

1065. - How are you? - We're good.

1066. Like, this is the thing. I'm self-aware enough to know my own flaws, right?

1067. I think with him, sometimes I'm overcritical, and I'm hard on him

1068. because I'm so overcritical and hard on myself.

1069. - I'm working on that. - He has things to work on.

1070. - Yeah. - We all know Nicky D.

1071. Like, Nicky D has things to work on, but I want him to see the fun Hannah too.

1072. Yeah.

1073. He's great to me. And I love Nick. He's perfect for me.

1074. But I think I could be the best thing in the world for Nick

1075. just because there's so many things that—

1076. - You could show him? - Yes!

1077. Remember when in the airport, you were like,

1078. "I want you to try new cuisines. I want you to try this, try that."

1079. "You're, like, you're used to sticking to the same things."

1080. I was like, "Wow. Go, Hannah."

1081. 'Cause you could really broaden his horizon.

1082. I am! That's the thing. He just hasn't had the opportunity to.

1083. I think sexually too.

1084. I think when he's had sex with partners, he told me, like, with past partners…

1085. It's just like that woman, right? Where, like, you get off,

1086. and you probably don't even think to ask if she had hers.

1087. Right? That's the thing, is, like, we have to get there.

1088. And the way we get there, like, it doesn't come natural.

1089. If we have to work for it, we work for it, right?

1090. When I've been communicative for the past two weeks about what I need…

1091. I told him what I need sexually. If it turns me on and you don't do it,

1092. you continue the same thing that gets you off?

1093. - Then it's frustrating. - Yeah, yeah.

1094. Because I wanna pleasure you—

1095. - Like, "I gotta grab a toy." - He is very jealous of my vibrator.

1096. I haven't had sex with a lot of people.

1097. But the people I've had sex with, we've been very sexually explorative.

1098. Nick's not like that, right?

1099. And it's almost like it's an 18-year-old sexualness.

1100. Like, things gross him out.

1101. Eating pussy is just, like, not what he thinks about.

1102. It's like, "Okay, well, like, you need to realize

1103. a woman needs pleasure as much as the man."

1104. Abso-fucking-lutely.

1105. He doesn't like to eat pussy. Um…

1106. - What? - Yes.

1107. And to fix sex that maybe isn't the best, you communicate.

1108. You have to be very careful when you communicate sexual problems,

1109. because for a man, it can be humiliating. It could make them feel bad or pressure.

1110. - Ego. - Ego. Yeah, I don't wanna hit his ego.

1111. So you have to be very careful of the way you approach it.

1112. But, like, he's learning. That's the thing.

1113. It's just like with Nick— I really truly love that man.

1114. - Aww. - Like, I really do.

1115. That's good to hear.

1116. Sometimes I get frustrated with him just because he doesn't…

1117. He's not at the same level as I am at understanding things.

1118. And he wants to get there. He just never had the chance to get there.

1119. - It's so nice to meet you. Nicky D. - It's great to meet you too.

1120. He's in the flesh.

1121. In the flesh.

1122. - Think he's having a good time? - Let's go sit over there.

1123. - Let them have a moment. - Katie looks like she's lighting up.

1124. Are you really my friend, Katie?

1125. She goes, "Nick's really attractive."

1126. I said, "Katie, you're supposed to be my friend. You don't say that."

1127. She said that to me tonight too. She was like, "Nick's really attractive."

1128. - She said that he's more attractive… - Should I kill her?

1129. …than her Instagram. No, we can kill her, but we love her.

1130. I did love her.

1131. You were the guy that was very smooth, charismatic,

1132. the football player, like, the athlete, right?

1133. That is what I date in the real world.

1134. And not to stereotype you and I apologize, 'cause this is 100% stereotyping.

1135. I'm super chill. Tell me whatever you want.

1136. It was like, "This is the guy you would date in the real world,

1137. and this is why you're 35 and single."

1138. I didn't care about your age. You didn't care about my age.

1139. We have a lot of similarities.

1140. - Yeah. - I was really feeling you.

1141. You can't help when you were born. I can't help when I was born.

1142. Um, but…

1143. So you don't care about age?

1144. No, but you have to understand, like,

1145. for the past, like, 15 years, ten years, whatever…

1146. - I have dated the same guy— - It's been that long?

1147. - Damn, girl. - Over and over again.

1148. Can't you date, like, someone else?

1149. No, but I mean, like, the same type.

1150. So why can't you accept that that's your type,

1151. and you just haven't met the right guy?

1152. That's a great question.

1153. - If that's your type, that's your type. - Yeah.

1154. You can't hold that against the next person.

1155. Honestly, I was attracted to you from day one.

1156. I was like, "Damn, Katie's always on my mind."

1157. I know you gave me goose bumps.

1158. You gave me goose bumps.

1159. In the real world, you see all these people.

1160. "Oh, hey, love is maybe not blind."

1161. You were my number one for three days for a reason, right? Like…

1162. Same here.

1163. I can literally look into, like, your eyes and tell you're a beautiful soul.

1164. - Like, you're a beautiful person. - Thank you.

1165. Like, you're super ambitious.

1166. You're gonna make someone happy as fuck someday.

1167. You could, like, honestly make me cry over that. Thank you.

1168. I know you mean it. I know you mean it.

1169. I mean it, right?

1170. I'm super important on body language

1171. and impressions and stuff like that.

1172. Not in the "Looking at your IG." 'Cause your IG is beautiful, by the way.

1173. - Thank you. - But you're super…

1174. You're dope as fuck.

1175. Right? Like…

1176. - I was feeling you. I'm not gonna lie. - Yeah.

1177. - But you were the one that dropped me. - I dropped you.

1178. Why is that?

1179. There is nothing I want you to take personal from what I'm about to say,

1180. but when it comes to, like, maturity, I didn't think you were quite there.

1181. I thought we got to a good point, and then at the end, it was, like,

1182. "My mom's friends fuck with me. Like, older women really fuck with me."

1183. I'm like, "Damn. He didn't hear a word I just said."

1184. - Yeah. - And beyond that was the objectifying.

1185. Like that date you were like, "I just know you're sexy."

1186. "I know you're this. You're that."

1187. - I'm sarcastic. I like to joke around. - Yeah.

1188. If you said something to me, I'm like, "Damn, that's sexy."

1189. I don't mean it in that way. You didn't see a future in me.

1190. That's totally fine.

1191. But just know that, like, I really liked talking to you.

1192. - I think you lead with charm and charisma… - Yeah.

1193. - …too hard. - Okay.

1194. I think you're such, like, a beautiful and a deep person.

1195. - Yeah. - I would challenge you to lead with that.

1196. Okay.

1197. I remember talking about your family, and they just sounded amazing.

1198. I know you are this person that's filled with values.

1199. I think you're this person that's filled with a whole heart.

1200. Lead with that, right?

1201. Like, don't lead with like, "I know you're so sexy."

1202. I think that's a defense mechanism,

1203. which is maybe coming from a place of insecurity.

1204. But I'm here to tell you, like, you are the whole package.

1205. You're fantastic.

1206. And I love and I'm proud of the person that you are.

1207. And I'm proud of the growth that you've already experienced,

1208. 'cause you're in a position where you have a fiancée.

1209. You guys are growing together. You're also growing as a person.

1210. That's the most beautiful part about what we're experiencing.

1211. Because I got to experience that as a single person

1212. and moving on until whatever is next.

1213. - Yeah. - Yeah.

1214. I'm happy where I'm at.

1215. I've learned to mature and be socially aware

1216. and, like, be aware of the words I say.

1217. I've learned a lot to grow as a man and mature.

1218. I think the world of you.

1219. I tell Hannah all the time, "I can't wait to bro out with Nicky D."

1220. Just invite me to a Ravens game, please.

1221. Okay, we can do that.

1222. Now I feel you're like very angry at me.

1223. I'm livid.

1224. You lied again.

1225. I didn't lie.

1226. You said, "I just liked the message, and I ignored it."

1227. Yeah.

1228. And when people are in front of us,

1229. you're saying, "Well, no, I responded to it."

1230. I don't remember what I said. It was more about, "This thing happened."

1231. We didn't revisit, like, "What exactly did you say?"

1232. No, we did. We were outside, and I said, "You liked it."

1233. "I think that's weird that you just liked it and you left ambiguity."

1234. And then you didn't respond, saying, like, shutting it down.

1235. I don't wanna have to go through your phone, Garrett.

1236. I didn't pause to think, "Let me tell you, like—"

1237. - Exactly what happened? - Word for word.

1238. Well, the response. Yeah, I didn't—

1239. - No, I did not. - The whole thing is the response.

1240. You said you just liked it.

1241. The point was, like, for me to tell you, "Hey, this person said this."

1242. I will get past you not fully thinking about this,

1243. but then the fact that your story completely changed

1244. in front of other people,

1245. how is that not upsetting?

1246. You're saying there's a difference between liking and actually responding with words.

1247. I didn't think there was a difference there.

1248. and I'm sorry, and I missed that detail. I apologize.

1249. Those are facts. Those are not details. I wanna be very fucking clear.

1250. - Same thing. Okay. - Those are facts versus details.

1251. Liking something passively is very different than being like,

1252. I am actively responding to something that you know is significant to me.

1253. - There's not a difference. - Is there a difference?

1254. - No, there's not. - How is there not? There's literally…

1255. The details are the facts of the situation.

1256. I guess we have a difference between, like, what facts and details are,

1257. which, like, fucking sucks.

1258. - This is a semantics thing. The point is— - To you.

1259. - To you. - Okay.

1260. The point is I should have told you this.

1261. I should have told you the facts of the situation.

1262. Yeah.

1263. I am so, so, so sorry.

1264. You could have done this an hour ago!

1265. I should have, and I should have.

1266. I should have told you this morning.

1267. I made a huge mistake.

1268. It eats me alive that you feel this way right now.

1269. You're supposed to meet my family tomorrow.

1270. I told you how I need to be 200% for you to meet my family,

1271. but now I'm not 200%.

1272. I fucked up, and I'm very, very sorry.

1273. You said you had to be 200% to see your father.

1274. If you do what you probably really feel like you wanna do and say,

1275. "We're not going tomorrow."

1276. If we don't go see my parents tomorrow, we're not doing any of this.

1277. I know that.

1278. It's just too many red flags, like, honestly.

1279. It's just…

1280. It's just too much in, like, too little time.

1281. Are you talking about the wedding now?

1282. You can do whatever you wanna do. That'll always be true.

1283. Am I gonna fucking be absolutely crushed? Of course.

1284. I'll be miserable, but I'll understand that.

1285. It's just— it's just really weird. It doesn't really make sense to me.

1286. I get what you're saying. I get that.

1287. I'm the fucking problem.

1288. I know that.

1289. I'm still the person that you knew I was before this happened.

1290. It doesn't change who I am.

1291. Doesn't change all things we've been through, how I feel about you.

1292. And I've shown you all the ins and outs of me.

1293. And it is who I am, okay?

1294. This thing does not define me.

1295. I'm pissed.

1296. Don't not tell me things.

1297. I tell you everything.

1298. And you know that's hard for me.

1299. I know you're sorry.

1300. I'm just like incredibly exhausted.

1301. And confused.

1302. I'd like to go home.
