1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, welcome back to bet your Happy Hour.

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 2: I'm Joe and I'm Srina and we are here with

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 2: Maria to get into more of the nitty gritty of

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 2: her time on Joey season and everything after.

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: This is Maria Part two. Let's do it. In past relationships,

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: have you ever self sabotage?

7
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 3: Always?

8
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: Yeah?

9
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,319
Speaker 3: Oh kay? Wait? Not always keep a lot of the

10
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 3: time because like for me, it's like sometimes I here's

11
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 3: the thing, and this is what I think I've learned

12
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 3: very recently. It's where like I need to trust my

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 3: instincts more. And I think that when I tend to

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 3: self sabotage or ruin a good thing, it's because they

15
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 3: were it was never mine to begin with. And I

16
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 3: think I learned that along the way when things start

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 3: like presenting itself as being negative and I'm more I'm like, see,

18
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 3: I knew it kind of thing you have that like

19
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 3: I told you so a moment where like I was

20
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: like I knew why I was doing the things that

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 3: I was doing. But I feel like I only self

22
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 3: sabage when I know the person's not right for me.

23
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: And I know that's so crazy to say, and maybe

24
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 3: I'm jumping the gun and people might say, well, like

25
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: you're ruining it for anything good can even happen? Sure,

26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 3: but why is it that every time I do it

27
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 3: in the end, I don't feel bad because I'm like,

28
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 3: see like this, like something will happen where I'm like,

29
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: that's exactly why I pushed you away to begin with,

30
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 3: or that's exactly why I didn't allow things to happen,

31
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 3: and it just all ended up making sense and then

32
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 3: something better comes into my life where I'm like, holy,

33
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 3: like this is what was meant for me. And so

34
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 3: it's hard for me to say that I do it

35
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 3: in a way where it's like a bad thing.

36
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: Well, then I don't think. I don't think it's self sabotaged.

37
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: I think it's more just awareness.

38
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's almost like because like I feel

39
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: like the definition of self sabotage is like when you're

40
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 2: trying to ruin something that is actually good for you

41
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: because you're afraid of like feeling like you don't deserve

42
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: this good thing, or like afraid of getting hurt. But sales,

43
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 2: like with this situation with Joey and like potentially past relationships,

44
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 2: it's almost like you have the intuition there that like

45
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: it's not quite right for you, and like you just

46
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: that is what's guiding your actions, but you're not like

47
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: fully leaning into it, like instead of being like, I

48
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: don't feel like this is gonna work out between you

49
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: and I. I think he was from relationships. I think

50
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: that I'm gonna be going home at some point. It's

51
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 2: like you're on that fence of like but am I

52
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: Like am I right?

53
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 3: Is it?

54
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: Like is it that it wasn't him?

55
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? And I think I. And here's the thing, because

56
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 3: it was so hard to like say that in the

57
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 3: moment because it is amazing, like our one on one

58
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,679
Speaker 3: which was last like the week before, but I remember

59
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: being like one good moment, we still got to be

60
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 3: real with ourselves here like and so for me it's like, yeah,

61
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 3: we had the best time ever and it was so great,

62
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 3: but at the same time looking at the bigger picture

63
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 3: and just like really just coming to terms with the

64
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 3: fact that I know which is not me I instead

65
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 3: of just like saying like listen because at the end

66
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: date like like I can't just be like bye, like whatever.

67
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 3: So I was trying to be respectful of everyone involved,

68
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: but also just like state my case here, like guys, listen,

69
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 3: like it's never gonna be us and I can acknowledge that,

70
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 3: and I think we both see it, but we're just

71
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 3: both trying to like, you know, a respectful way where

72
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 3: we're both like, yeah, I don't know, I don't know.

73
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you want to see the relationship as far as

74
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 2: it can go, right, Like yeah for both of you

75
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: that like you had almost kind of seen it as

76
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: far as it could go the week before Hometown's right,

77
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: and it was just that one more week to like

78
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: really be like, okay, both of you were like, it's

79
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: time to go our separate ways.

80
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, And like I didn't know if I wanted to

81
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 3: have my family involved. I know my family are like

82
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: they're the most welcoming people ever and they're whatever, but

83
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 3: like again, bringing them into the environment, like putting them

84
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 3: on camera and like having them go through all this,

85
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 3: it was hard for me. So I was like, Okay,

86
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: let me do this now in Jasper. Give him a

87
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: chance to be like Cinara bye bye, so that like

88
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 3: at least I could be like at least I tried

89
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 3: to do it now so he can maybe.

90
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you almost like give him an out.

91
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: Yes, And because you know, Jen and like Kelsey t.

92
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: You know, they gave him no issues, and so I thought, Okay,

93
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: let me do it now on this group date, so

94
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 3: I can give him the chance to be like, Okay,

95
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 3: let me choose someone else to like potentially see something with,

96
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 3: because Marie's already giving me enough problems. Let me just

97
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: let her go. And so, because I was insecure about

98
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 3: bringing him to my family, I'm like, guys, I don't

99
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 3: want to lie to you and say that, oh, I'm

100
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: one hundred percent he is my person. That's the only

101
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 3: time I would ever really truly bring someone to my family.

102
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 3: So it just didn't feel right. And so doing what

103
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 3: I did in Jasper was yeah, like I said, giving

104
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 3: him a little bit of a way out, and it

105
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: didn't happen that way. And in ways I were expected

106
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 3: because he was trying to fight for us, but also

107
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: I was like, fight for me for one more week

108
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 3: and then bring my fam, get my family involved. It

109
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 3: just it didn't sit right with me. And you know,

110
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 3: you could sit and like, you know, go look back

111
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 3: and be like I regret it. But at the same time,

112
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: I think it was amazing because people got to see

113
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 3: my family how amazing they are, and see how amazing

114
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 3: my dad is, and so for that, I'm grateful. So

115
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 3: for that, I actually respect that I got the chance

116
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 3: to do it, even if it's out of my comfort zone.

117
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: After Hometowns and Enjoey, meeting your family and going through

118
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: all that, which is was obviously a big thing for you,

119
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: and it's a big thing for most most people. Yeah,

120
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: was there a part of you that maybe thought maybe

121
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: maybe this could work out?

122
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 3: In my head, I'll be honest, I was like, Wow,

123
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 3: this guy is willing to fight for me, to say

124
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 3: after what I just pulled like and and despite what

125
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 3: you might saw, it like, there was more to the

126
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 3: fight that he kept me there and made me feel

127
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 3: confident enough to stay. I was like, Wow, he's all in.

128
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: And actually at Hometowns is where I fully engaged and

129
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: was like I was fully engaged, and I was like,

130
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: I'm going to give him my all. And it was

131
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 3: unfortunate that that's when he completely backed out, because in

132
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: that moment is where I was like, wow, like he

133
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 3: like must really like me. It was it was almost

134
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 3: like to a point where I was like, am I

135
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 3: not seeing something that I like? I'm like, there's something

136
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 3: must be missing in my head because for me, I

137
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 3: was like, oh, this is just not happening. But I

138
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 3: felt like I was being fought for in a way

139
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 3: where I was like, Okay, I'm secure in this. And

140
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 3: then he won over my family, and then he won

141
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 3: over my friend. He spoke to Brittany and like it

142
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 3: wasn't shown, but there the their conversation was enough for

143
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 3: me because I like, my dad might sugarcoat things, but

144
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: my best friend is not. And she was like Maria

145
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 3: like ke'd all in, like don't be stupid, and so

146
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: I was having all these outside voice is telling me,

147
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: don't be an idiot. This guy likes you so much,

148
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 3: like what are you doing? So I was like okay,

149
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 3: And then it got to the point where I was

150
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 3: outside and obviously everyone was rooting for me to say,

151
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: you know, I'm falling in love with you. And for

152
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 3: some weird reason, despite how well the night went, and

153
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 3: it did and everyone loved him and he was great

154
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 3: and he is great, you know, but I just couldn't

155
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 3: do it. I just couldn't do it. There was like

156
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 3: he was sitting there and I felt so bad, but

157
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 3: I just couldn't do it.

158
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 2: And it's not like women's intuition is like so strong,

159
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 2: and I really believe that. I feel like you, like

160
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: your intuition was like telling you something right.

161
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 3: And it's like it's you know, it's easy for me

162
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: now to look back and be like, yeah, that was it.

163
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 3: That's exactly what it is. But in the moment, there

164
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 3: was like this fight inside of me that was so

165
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 3: like annoying because I was like, I know, I feel

166
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 3: this way for this guy, but why can I not

167
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 3: just put it into words? And it was like it

168
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 3: was unfortunate, but I was like, no, but I don't

169
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: regret that because that was my self protection. But then

170
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: I go and screw it up with a freaking rose

171
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: ceremony like an idiot.

172
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so let's let's talk about Okay, So the rose ceremony,

173
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: before Joey's about to hand out the roses, you pull

174
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: him to the side, and you remember you basically said

175
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: fuck Because here's the thing. Though I do believe obviously

176
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: you were right, and I do believe you should follow

177
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: your intuition, but when you're in a situation like the

178
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: Bachelor where it's like but he you have to kind

179
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: of put it to the side a little bit because

180
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: you have to look at the circumstances of he is

181
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: dating multiple people, so that maybe in your head you're like, well,

182
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: maybe this is why my intuition's telling me this.

183
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 2: It's so hard it like really is It's such a

184
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 2: unique environment that it is hard to trust your guy

185
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: because it's like, well, I've never been here before, I've

186
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 2: never done anything like this before. Like what is my

187
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 2: gut really trying to tell me? We didn't think it

188
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: was like we thought it was right that you told him,

189
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, you leave, would

190
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 2: know what if And I think it's hard for people

191
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: when they hold back on their emotions. They leave and

192
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 2: the first thing they do is, well, what if I

193
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 2: did this? Well what if I had said this? And

194
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: like if you do feel that way, like telling him

195
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 2: is not going to make you feel more or less.

196
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 2: It's just going to like give him that information.

197
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,839
Speaker 3: Well, like to just give you a little bit of

198
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,719
Speaker 3: a backstory on this one. It's like him and I

199
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 3: were talking about regrets, and like we had this whole

200
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 3: ass conversation about regrets, and he was just like expressing

201
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 3: how important it is to him to like speak his mind,

202
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 3: and like even if it makes him feel like like

203
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 3: it's wrong in the moment or like whatever, we made

204
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,719
Speaker 3: a joke we compared to John Meher's like it's better

205
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 3: to say too much than never to say what you

206
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 3: need to say. And so in that moment was me

207
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 3: kind of showing up to be like, look like I'm

208
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: willing to put it all out there because I don't

209
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 3: want to leave with regrets, even though in the back

210
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 3: of my head I was like, oh, my car is

211
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 3: waiting for me outside, but I still said, you know what,

212
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 3: I'm going to show that, like I can, you know,

213
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 3: like we can have a conversation about what we both

214
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 3: want out of this, which is like being able to

215
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 3: open up and like leave everything out on the line,

216
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: even if it's not us. In the end, I want

217
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 3: him to like to see that I was capable of

218
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 3: like doing that, even knowing that it wasn't us. I

219
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: think it was just a moment where I wanted him

220
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 3: to appreciate that, like, despite it not being us, I'm

221
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 3: still willing to let you know exactly how I feel,

222
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 3: because I did feel that in the moment that I was.

223
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 3: I know, all I said was I'm falling in love

224
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: with you. Like so like I sat there and was

225
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 3: like I'm in love with you, Like you know, I'm

226
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 3: so stupid. I couldn't even really say I know. It

227
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 3: would have been more of like a like a oh

228
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 3: if I was like I'm in love with you, but

229
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: I was like I'm falling in love. He's like, yeah, bitch,

230
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 3: I have three other girls that are already in love

231
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 3: with me and ready to get down on me, Like

232
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 3: I don't care about you, Maria. But it was just

233
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 3: nice that I still got to say something to his

234
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: face that like I was feeling, and so I wanted

235
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 3: him to know that I was able to do that.

236
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 3: Like I know a lot of the time on the show,

237
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 3: it was like that idea that I couldn't get there,

238
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 3: or I couldn't be honest about it, or I couldn't

239
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: open up about it. So that was me kind of

240
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 3: proving to myself but also to him that I was

241
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: able to do that. And then I really kind of

242
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 3: knew that it was my time to go, and I think, yeah,

243
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 3: and that's okay.

244
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 2: What did your family think of like all of it,

245
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,599
Speaker 2: like you going on the show, how it unfold and

246
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: meeting Joey and then like the whole like fan base

247
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 2: rallying behind you, like what was their emotions towards it?

248
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 3: Well, funny enough, like as soon as I got home, like,

249
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 3: I you know, sat my family down, got my friends

250
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 3: to come over, like I had a serious talk with them,

251
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 3: because again I was I was considered a bully in

252
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 3: the house. I was the verbally abusive one. So now

253
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 3: how do I know how that's going to play it

254
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 3: on screen when it actually comes out? So to me,

255
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 3: I was like, I need to warn my family and

256
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 3: friends right now what I went through in that house

257
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 3: and how it could be perceived to everyone else. So

258
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 3: if I was so wrongly like accused of things but

259
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 3: also like misunderstood, I don't know how the audience is

260
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 3: going to see me and like think they might be

261
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 3: on their side. So I had to let them know

262
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 3: the worst case scenario in all of this. So I

263
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 3: remember being like, guys, like I don't know how things

264
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 3: are going to go. I'm I'm just happy to be home,

265
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 3: but I want you to know that this might be

266
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 3: the case. And then when things started playing out and

267
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 3: in my favor, and not only that, but like people

268
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 3: just seeing me for me and appreciating me and loving

269
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 3: me for who I am, to be able to stick

270
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 3: up for myself, but then seeing also that I was misunderstood,

271
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 3: that I was wrongly accused, you know, like even if

272
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 3: I didn't have any backup in like going through it,

273
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 3: it's like the audience was there for me, and that

274
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 3: was like the biggest Like I can't even explained. I

275
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 3: was so in awe of it because I didn't expect it.

276
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 3: I just kind of want to get through it. I

277
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 3: was like, I cannot wait for it to air. I'm

278
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 3: ready to just like put this in the past. But

279
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 3: then when like watching it and going through it and

280
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 3: remembering because I remember being in the house being like,

281
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: how are they not seeing that this is so wrong?

282
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 3: How are they not seeing that? Like I'm innocent in

283
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: all of this, Like why is this happening? And so

284
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 3: having the audience see that and back me up was

285
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 3: like I felt like I was like in a different dimension.

286
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 3: I was like, Wow, this is like this is what

287
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 3: was supposed to happen in the house, But like I

288
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: have people now to back me up who like love

289
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 3: me and appreciate me for me, and like it just

290
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 3: felt so good. It honestly felt so good, and I

291
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 3: felt like I can't even speak of with it. It makes

292
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 3: me like emotional because I'm like, wow, I finally have

293
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: people that like like just appreciated me for being me

294
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 3: and like saw my side. I felt seen, I felt

295
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 3: heard like it was. It was beautiful.

296
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 2: I can't even imagine like going through that experience, feeling

297
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: like you're like having to be on the defense for

298
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 2: so long and just feeling like you're not being embraced

299
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 2: by the house and then coming off and like having

300
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: that anxiety and like you, honestly you did the smart thing,

301
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 2: like sitting your family and friends down to like prep

302
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: them for what could be and then have it be

303
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: like the other way and have the audience just embrace

304
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 2: you so much, like and just feel like you were

305
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: seen by the audience in a way that you weren't

306
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: seen in the house for like who you are, Like

307
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: it really is an evasion.

308
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: There are so many people I feel like that kind

309
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: of the opposite happens. They come off the show and

310
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: they're like I'm the star or this is gonna go.

311
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 3: Great, but exactly what it was, that's like, that's exactly

312
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 3: what it was. I'm listen, we're great now. But in

313
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 3: the moment I know that they were like, we're going

314
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 3: to bat for our friend and we're gonna look like

315
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 3: the freakin' rider Diyes and she's gonna look like or whatever,

316
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 3: and like yeah, when you're in it, you're like, wait,

317
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 3: but am I the wrong? Like am I in the rug?

318
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 3: I was mind blown? Yeah, And so for it to

319
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 3: just play it exactly how it went and people seeing

320
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: my side and like being like, are you crazy, Marie's

321
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 3: not in the wrong? Ear I felt.

322
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: I just what do you think like the root of

323
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: the controversy between you and the women really was? It

324
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: just seemed like it was constantly changing and evolving, Like

325
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 2: what do you think was the biggest issue that forced

326
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: this like wedge between you and them?

327
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: You know, I really don't understand it because up until

328
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 3: that point when I figured out, like when it was

329
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 3: kind of going around the house that I was shit

330
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 3: talking Medina like I kid you not, I was not

331
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 3: like in any kind of like like I was so

332
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 3: good with all the girls, Like I was so good

333
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 3: with all of them. So when that kind of came out,

334
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: I was like whoa, whoa Like I was. I remember,

335
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 3: I remember they were all like who do you think

336
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 3: it could be? Like who do you think, and I

337
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 3: remember saying, I am not even gonna say a name

338
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 3: because I'm so good with everyone that if I say

339
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 3: a name and it's not that person, I'm gonna feel

340
00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 3: like shit. So I remember being like so shocked, like like,

341
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: who the hell is coming for me? Like I have

342
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 3: been listen, I'm very outspoken, I'm not afraid to stand

343
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 3: up for myself. I'm whatever. But when it comes to

344
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 3: the how I supported those women in the house, especially

345
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 3: when they were emotionable not getting time at night one,

346
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 3: I was like the mama bear in that house. I

347
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 3: was going up to like any girls that were sad,

348
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 3: they would come talk to me. I was like lifting

349
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 3: their spirits, like that's who I am. Like I want

350
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 3: if I'm winning and you're winning, we're all winning. Like

351
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 3: I like that better than like kind of picking side,

352
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 3: Like I just don't. I don't know. I was shocked.

353
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 3: I was shocked because not only that, but also I

354
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 3: knew that I was never talking shit, So for me

355
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 3: to acknowledge the house the way that I did, I

356
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 3: knew I had nothing to hide. So when I walked

357
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 3: into the room with all the girls sitting there, I

358
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 3: was like, this is the perfect opportunity to let it

359
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 3: out there, or so I put it out there and say, hey, guys,

360
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 3: like I know I wasn't saying anything, but who felt

361
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 3: that I might have, you know, belittle like Medina in

362
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 3: any way, like who might have missed or said something

363
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 3: that I might have said? And that's when Sydney was

364
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 3: like I did, And I was like, but what did

365
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 3: I even say? Like I was confused? Like I was,

366
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 3: and I, guys, when I tell you, like, I was

367
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 3: so confused. And I'm the type of girl that if

368
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 3: I said something wrong or is something that I might

369
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 3: have said could have been taken out of context, I

370
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 3: would own it. I just wanted to know what I said.

371
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 3: And when she was like, well you told her she's

372
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 3: not old, and I'm like, am I here? Like are

373
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 3: we all like are we in the same house right now?

374
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: Are we all hearing what she just said? Or like

375
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 3: I said, I'm old too, or something like that. Can

376
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,239
Speaker 3: I preface this by saying, if Medina had come up

377
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 3: to me and said, Maria, I'm feeling insecure about my age,

378
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 3: can we talk? I wouldn't sit there and be like

379
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 3: own it. You're hot, Like what are you thinking? Like

380
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 3: get over it, I would be like, well, tell me

381
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 3: how you feel like, if that's how you feel, like,

382
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 3: I'm here for you. But it was me just talking

383
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 3: to I don't know who was Lauren Allison. I get

384
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 3: apparently we're all getting confused with all the black haired girls.

385
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 3: But I was just like saying her, I'm like, this

386
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 3: is what happened earlier, Madina this, and I don't even

387
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 3: think that she should feel this way because but I

388
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 3: was talking to one girl. Yes, I was talking to

389
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 3: her aside from everyone else, but I didn't think that

390
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 3: wasn't gonna be that was gonna be hurt. I was

391
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 3: just saying she shouldn't want to just saw you know,

392
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 3: like it's great. But if Medina had come to me

393
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: and was like opening up about that stuff, I would

394
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 3: be there for her. I wouldn't. I would put my

395
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 3: feelings towards how I feel about the situation aside and

396
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 3: actually just be there for her as a friend. And

397
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 3: I think that's where I was like kind of like

398
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 3: hurt because I was like, I'm not shit talking to

399
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 3: this woman. I'm really not.

400
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I remember when it when it happened,

401
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: I remember thinking like, if if I was in that situation.

402
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: I would have been like, if Brian, I don't know

403
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: who Brian is, but if I'm in the house with

404
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 1: a Brian and he's like, I feel old and we

405
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: were the same agent BIC and I heard that, I'd

406
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: be like Fox, he feel for the same age, right.

407
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 3: Well, look at the alternative, look at the alternative imagine.

408
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, Medina, I feel that, Like, yeah,

409
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 3: you should feel our old girl. Yeah. Win, you tell

410
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 3: them they're not old, they hate you. They tell them

411
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 3: you tell me you are old, then they hate you.

412
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 3: I was like, you know what, But what I did

413
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 3: learn watching back is I can keep my mouth shut

414
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 3: and it's not even get involved and be like I

415
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 3: put my hands up, continue your narrative. I don't care.

416
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 3: At this point, it was so it was just such

417
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 3: an It was like I just felt so dumb entertaining it.

418
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 3: That's what I felt like in the And if I

419
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 3: didn't entertain it, then I didn't care enough to like

420
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,239
Speaker 3: fix it. So I was like, I was torn. I

421
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: was like, I don't know what you guys want for

422
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 3: my life, but I tried my best.

423
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: The audience, the audience saw through through it all, and

424
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: they loved you and I think this is the first,

425
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: honestly since we've been covering the show, which feels like

426
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: forever in a good way. But I will say this

427
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: is the first time in a long time where there's

428
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: been such a push for someone to become the lead.

429
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: I can't I can't remember like Mae, like Becca.

430
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 2: Who friends after break up, but usually there's some sort

431
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: of like crazy this is the breakup that fuels in

432
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 2: at the end. I feel like you're a very unique situation.

433
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: So I have to ask, did they ask you to

434
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: be the bachelorette?

435
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 3: This is what I'll say, because obviously I've been asked left,

436
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 3: right and center, Like there's obviously conversations about that. But

437
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 3: I just like, I'm really here to like support Jen

438
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 3: and to to like, you know, bring attention to that.

439
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 3: I don't think it really matters anymore. And so yeah,

440
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 3: like I'm just really excited for Jen and I and

441
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 3: I want to keep the focus on that, to be honest.

442
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: But there are rumors out there that you were asked

443
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: and that mental health came into play for you potentially

444
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 2: not doing it. Do you want to like address any

445
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 2: of the rumors about it.

446
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 3: There were a couple things that were said that were

447
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 3: so untrue that I'm like, I don't care to entertain it.

448
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,959
Speaker 3: It's just it's not I don't know. I mean, like

449
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 3: I said, I just want to keep the focus on

450
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 3: Gen and like, I don't think it really matters even

451
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,919
Speaker 3: if that was the case, and it wasn't the case, Like,

452
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 3: I don't think it really matters because it's not me, right,

453
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't know, I don't know. I really

454
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 3: just want to keep the focus on Gen and I

455
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 3: don't think it really matters about me at this point.

456
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 3: But I was really appreciative that, like people saw me

457
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 3: in that position and it and that was really nice

458
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 3: because I've never I always wanted to be a contestant

459
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 3: on the show. I never once even thought or entertained

460
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 3: the idea of being Bachelorette, So it was nice to hear.

461
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 3: But yeah, as for those rumors, like again, there's people

462
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 3: talk all the time, and that's what I've realized in

463
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 3: this world, and that's why, like, as soon as I

464
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 3: came back, like I wanted so badly to detach a

465
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 3: little bit and just come back to reality and be

466
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 3: with my family and my friends and not do any

467
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 3: podcasts and stuff like that. Because I was like, I

468
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 3: know how people can twist things and turn things, and

469
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 3: there's so many people that like blow things out of

470
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 3: proportion or they'll like here, I don't know, they just

471
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 3: make things up in weird ways, click bait and all

472
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 3: that stuff. And so when I heard that stuff, I

473
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 3: was like, I'm not even gonna entertain it. It's not

474
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 3: even like a thought in my mind. It's unfortunate that

475
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: there's things like that coming around, like and so for that,

476
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say untrue. And uh, let's just support Jen

477
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 3: in this moment, and uh, we'll see what the future has.

478
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 3: And I'm excited for her, honestly.

479
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: Are you ready to start dating?

480
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:47,399

Speaker 1: Then?

485
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't. I'm not the type of person

486
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 3: that like falls in love very easily. It's kind of

487
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 3: like when I know, I know, I know a lot

488
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 3: of girls like like to date and go on dates

489
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 3: to like figure out if if that person is someone

490
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 3: that they want, Like, I'm the type of person which

491
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 3: is going to make it a lot harder for me

492
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 3: when I know. I know, so I haven't found that yet,

495
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,920

496
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 3: opportunities and it's it's weird. I hate this world that

00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 3: might be too much.

614
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 2: But I've actually seen this on Instagram that it's becoming

618
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,600
