00:01Previously on Match Me Abroad.
00:03I don't know if it's because I had a dirty martini,
00:06champagne, and a little bit of red wine,
00:09but I'm relaxed as hell.
00:15Here I am with Keevan, but I'm still thinking about Glenn.
00:20I need Keevan to show me that he really is interested in me.
00:24Otherwise, I don't know how this relationship is gonna work
00:26once I return back to Texas.
00:29Come on, take this shirt off.
00:34Cheers to him.
00:38Cheers to that.
00:39EJ has a lot of great things to say about EJ.
00:41Oh, good.
00:42After hearing about what he told Dolly,
00:44I am feeling more optimistic.
00:46Okay, maybe Dolly does know what she's doing here.
00:50Can he get another chance to get to know more of you?
00:54Oh, I can't wait to see him again.
00:56I would like to meet, you know, with some of your friends
01:00and get to know, you know, more of your trust.
01:03Hmm.
01:05Me and Harold, I think we have a great chemistry,
01:08but at the same time, he pushes boundaries,
01:10which I don't like.
01:12I'll be in my best behavior.
01:13Do you always call your clients difficult?
01:19If we have a list of deal breakers,
01:23it's gonna be very hard to find someone who meets my standards.
01:28I have just one more match for Tony.
01:33And if he doesn't make things work with her,
01:37I'll be firing him.
01:40I have a heart that can't be taped alone.
01:45Oh, hi.
01:46How are you?
01:47So good to see you.
01:48Hello.
01:49Thank you for coming to hang out with me.
01:50I got you something.
01:51You got me a gift?
01:52Yeah.
01:53Wow.
02:08It's something cute.
02:09I think you'll love it.
02:10Oh, you're so sweet.
02:11Oh, my gosh.
02:12I love it.
02:13It's very sentimental that you have a key chain on you,
02:16because you carry it wherever you go.
02:17Did you do this on purpose?
02:18Because you knew I was gonna, like,
02:19look at it all the time.
02:20Yes.
02:21And think about you and our adventure together.
02:22Yes.
02:36And think about you and our adventure together.
02:38This is so sweet.
02:40I'm so excited to see EJ again,
02:43and I can't believe he got me this designer key chain.
02:45I really appreciate the gesture,
02:48and it's super cute.
02:50The view is amazing, right?
02:52Yeah.
02:53It's really, really cool.
02:54I had a lot of fun with you the other day.
02:56Thank you for that.
02:57Yeah.
02:58Me too.
02:59Bye.
03:00I can't believe you're leaving me in a couple of days.
03:02I really wanted to hang out with Morak.
03:05Yeah, me too.
03:08Since my first date with EJ, we've been talking constantly,
03:11and it's been amazing.
03:12But EJ called me yesterday, and he told me that he's leaving
03:15for an overseas bodybuilding competition
03:17and that he won't be back until the day before I leave
03:20to go back to Texas.
03:22Honestly, I'm shocked.
03:23I thought we were on the same page in regards
03:26of how much we liked each other.
03:28I realized that this is something that he was probably
03:31planning on for a while, but so why even go on a few dates
03:34with me if you're not gonna see where this can actually truly go?
03:40Yeah.
03:41So it's a lot about who you are as a person.
03:42Yeah.
03:43And when you come back, we'll celebrate because you'll win.
03:44Yeah.
03:47It's a lot about who you are as a person.
03:48Yeah.
03:49And when you come back, we'll celebrate because you'll win.
03:50And we'll have hamburgers and donuts, and you can cheat with me.
03:51Okay.
03:52I'll bring you.
03:58So it's a lot about who you are as a person.
03:59Yeah.
04:00And when you come back, we'll celebrate because you'll win.
04:03And we'll have hamburgers and donuts, and you can cheat with me.
04:18Okay.
04:19I'll bring you to my favorite cheat meal place.
04:21Yes.
04:22Okay.
04:23Speaking of all your muscles, you should probably get in the pool.
04:27I will, only if you join me.
04:30Normally I would, but I have my makeup done and my hair done.
04:33So probably not today.
04:36I understand.
04:37But I did have something to kind of ask you because, you know, I love makeup.
04:42I love hair.
04:43I love to get dressed up.
04:44But Dolly keeps telling me that I need to tone it down.
04:48Um, so I'm curious.
04:49Do you think that that's something that I do need to do?
04:54You're gonna go, which is great because that's who you are as a person, right?
04:58Mm-hmm.
04:59To change all that is ridiculous.
05:00Then I'm taking away a part of you.
05:02I'm never gonna do that.
05:04If I'm gonna fall in love with you, it's gonna be I'm falling in love with you because of you.
05:08For who I am, right.
05:09You're saying all the right things.
05:11So sweet.
05:12It's the real things.
05:13I know.
05:15Sarah expresses herself by beautifying herself, which is what she loves.
05:19And I will support her.
05:20Your partner has to support what you love, you know, and it works two ways.
05:23So that's why I really appreciate her supporting my competition.
05:27I mean, a part of her doesn't want me to leave.
05:29I can see that.
05:30But I can see that she genuinely want me to go and pursue what I love.
05:35So I think she respects that.
05:38Sarah, can I see your tattoo?
05:41How many times are you gonna make me ask?
05:43Come on.
05:44Okay, I'll go ahead and take a swim.
05:45Okay.
05:46Thank you, babe, for everything.
05:48You're all sweaty.
05:50I know.
05:54I'm gonna go with change.
05:55Okay.
05:56Sounds good.
05:57The fact that EJ doesn't want me to change my look is really sweet and amazing and reassuring
06:08and honestly making me like him more and more.
06:10Oh.
06:11Wow.
06:12Hello, handsome.
06:13Your tattoo.
06:14I love it.
06:16You brought me a flower?
06:17Yep.
06:18So sweet.
06:20Now I'm gonna jump in.
06:22Ah!
06:23Wow.
06:29EJ is definitely saying all the right things, but at the end of the day, like, he is leaving
06:34and a part of me definitely is still a little worried that he thinks that this is all just
06:40fun and games.
06:42I truly pray that he's being genuine with everything that he's saying because I am really starting
06:47to fall for him.
06:48Best view of Singapore.
06:49Are you nervous?
06:50A little bit.
06:51I can't see.
06:52My whole arm is sweaty, thanks to you.
07:09Oh.
07:10Okay.
07:11Hi.
07:12Um.
07:13The moment of truth.
07:14The moment of truth.
07:15A few days ago, I planned an indoor skydiving date with Amber and the best part of the date
07:27was I got to show her that I could take charge and plan a whole date and that I have the leadership
07:32skills that she desires in a man.
07:34And now I feel close to her and I feel she feels the same because today Amber's introducing
07:39me to one of her closest friends.
07:41Hi.
07:42Hi.
07:43Hi.
07:44Hi.
07:45Hi.
07:46Hi.
07:47Hi.
07:48Hi.
07:49Hello.
07:50Nice to meet you.
07:51Nice to meet you.
07:52Nice to meet you.
07:53You told me a lot about him.
07:55Maybe a little too much.
07:56I'm so elated to meet her friend, but the gravity is so intense because in Asian culture,
08:03you don't generally meet friends until you're more serious about each other.
08:07So this is a huge step forward and I don't want to do anything to mess this up.
08:11Um, hi.
08:12I'm going to get a margoli.
08:13The rice pie.
08:14Oh, that would be nice.
08:15I'll get one too.
08:16Are you sure?
08:17Yes.
08:18It's alcohol.
08:19Yes.
08:20Wait, do you drink?
08:21Not really.
08:22This will be good.
08:23So what happens when you drink?
08:24Shall we test it?
08:25I dance a little bit.
08:26I can give you all mine.
08:27We can order one bottle just for himself.
08:28I have known Joe for three to four years.
08:45Me and Joe, we get along because I think we are on the same wavelength.
08:49and it's definitely very important to get Joe's validation
08:54because ultimately, someone who wants to be in a serious relationship with me
09:00needs to pass some serious grilling from my friends and family.
09:05I really like Harold and I hope that he does very well.
09:10Cheers!
09:17Oh, it's good.
09:18Oh, it's good.
09:19You like it?
09:20Before our meat comes, I'll start grilling you first.
09:26Now you understand why we are friends.
09:28Yes.
09:29Yeah, we have the same sense of humor.
09:32So you chose this place?
09:34Yes, I did.
09:35So you had a Korean barbecue before?
09:37Never. I've never had Korean barbecue.
09:39I wanted something new.
09:40Very adventurous.
09:42They can go to you.
09:44Oh, my.
09:45This is beef sashimi.
09:47In Korean, it's called yok hai.
09:48It's basically raw bean.
09:54How is it?
09:56It's good, surprisingly.
09:58Really?
09:59Mm-hmm.
10:00Well, I saw the reaction when he had that.
10:03You need to drink so that I can ask about Prague.
10:08So, Prague, what happened?
10:10Uh, I went to Prague, I tried to find my love and I matched with this girl.
10:17We fell in love and it was rather tragic how it didn't work out.
10:24Before the girl in Prague, like, have you dated?
10:27Yes, I did.
10:28I had five or six relationships in the US.
10:31How did you meet them?
10:32Uh, dating apps.
10:35One of them, she worked at the McDonald's.
10:37So, they tell me every day, so that wasn't too hard.
10:40The cute girl at McDonald's, like, oh, hi, how's it going?
10:43Hamburger today?
10:44No, come over and see my rock collection.
10:46Rock collection?
10:47Yes, I collect rocks.
10:48Ooh.
10:49Amber actually asked me to come as her friend to sass him out,
10:54so I have to do my part.
10:57Amber is a great girl.
10:58But Amber's second guest, a lot of dating in the past,
11:02even when some guy's great.
11:04But he was so anxious and so nervous when he first stepped in
11:07that I was like, oh, man.
11:09I'm just thinking maybe he's actually like,
11:11oh, man.
11:12How many girls have you met here in Singapore?
11:17I've met two.
11:18I thought there was more.
11:19Only two?
11:20Yes.
11:21Really?
11:22There are more possibilities, but I was really taken to them.
11:25What about the other girl?
11:26No chemistry?
11:27No chemistry.
11:28No chemistry.
11:29Oh, no.
11:30Oh, no.
11:31Oh, no.
11:32Oh, no.
11:33Oh, no.
11:34Oh, no.
11:35Oh, no.
11:37Oh, no.
11:38Oh, no.
11:39Oh, no.
11:40Oh, no.
11:41Oh, no.
11:42And she didn't check all my boxes.
11:45Oh, oh.
11:46You have boxes?
11:47Yes.
11:48I have a checklist and I thank you.
11:49Wait, wait, wait.
11:50You have a checklist?
11:52Ha, ha.
11:54I really want Amber to see that I can fit in with her social life.
11:57But when Joe is grilling me, I feel enormous frustration.
12:01I never get to say everything I want to say.
12:04Being on the spectrum, socializing in group settings is not easy for me.
12:08I usually am just quiet.
12:10I sit in the background.
12:11So my biggest fear was if she sees something in me that she doesn't like and if it doesn't
12:16go well, then it would hinder our relationship.
12:19You're a pig is pretty cool.
12:20Your art is pretty amazing.
12:22Tony has been so picky and I really want him to make a true connection with Thais.
12:35What are you looking for out of a relationship?
12:37I don't know if I should tell you.
12:38Slow down, girl.
12:39Don't miss my tempo.
12:40It's a holy ground just like a tempo.
12:41I'm a stamina man.
12:42I'm sentimental.
12:43Hello.
12:44Hi.
12:45Hi, I'm Tony.
12:46I'm Thais.
12:47Nice to meet you.
12:48Yeah, nice to meet you too.
12:49So I think we're going to do graffiti.
12:50Are you an artist?
12:51I can draw, but I can see the competition around here, so hopefully I step up to it.
12:56Oh, yeah.
12:57Yeah.
12:58I see.
12:59For Tony's final potential match in Brazil, I'm setting him up with Thais.
13:25She's beautiful.
13:26She's artistic.
13:27She's also interested in having a family with her future partner.
13:33And when it comes to dating, they both have high standards.
13:38So I believe she could work with Tony.
13:41Oh, man.
13:43Wow.
13:44Okay.
13:45All right.
13:46They will be visiting the fun area of Beco do Batman to try their hand at graffiti art.
13:54Because I think art is like love and standards of beauty.
13:58Everything is subjective.
14:00Tony has been so picky, and I really want him to make a true connection with Thais.
14:06Even if her hair is too short.
14:09Welcome to the local studio.
14:11Are you ready for doing some art today?
14:13Absolutely.
14:14Yeah.
14:15So please take a seat.
14:16All right.
14:17Great.
14:18I will bring the pen and paper for you to do your drawing.
14:22Awesome.
14:23Yeah.
14:24I didn't even recognize how short her hair was because I was so distracted by how beautiful
14:31she is.
14:32And I like the way she's dressed.
14:34And I really like her skin tone.
14:36It looked to be very milky soft.
14:39Yeah.
14:40Yeah.
14:41Really nice.
14:42The goal is for you to do a drawing on the paper, and then we will do it on the wall.
14:48So go for it.
14:49All right.
14:51I appreciate you, sir.
14:52I'm drawing just like the moon and the ocean.
14:57Maybe you can do a little face on the moon to make it funnier, you know?
15:01Yeah.
15:02What is that?
15:03So this is Rafael.
15:07That's my ninja turtle.
15:10And he's got a pig as a pet.
15:12So he's taking his pig for a walk right now.
15:14Why do you like so much pigs?
15:16Well, the pig is a very underrated animal.
15:19It's actually one of the smartest land animals that there is.
15:23And a pig can turn into a warthog if you leave it in the wild.
15:28So it can become really tough if you let it.
15:31Mm-hmm.
15:32Yeah.
15:33Wow.
15:34What other animals do you like?
15:35I like pretty much all animals, so...
15:37Do you like dogs?
15:38Yeah, I like dogs.
15:39You have a dog?
15:40Yeah.
15:41I have, like, two dogs.
15:42It's a people and a Shih Tzu.
15:43Okay.
15:44I'm, like, extremely attached to them.
15:46Oh, okay.
15:48It's cool.
15:49So you have...
15:50You don't have any dogs?
15:51No.
15:52Okay, guys.
15:53So let's head to the next alley to paint.
15:55Yeah, let's do it.
15:56I'm ready.
15:57Follow me.
15:58I felt like, though, when I talked about the dogs,
16:01that I love dogs, he did not get so excited.
16:04So that's, like, I think you don't have dogs.
16:06A little red flagged.
16:07Because dogs owners understand the dog owners.
16:10We're the same people.
16:12This is the wall that we're going to paint.
16:14You go very close to do the lines.
16:16And you go further away to feel inside.
16:19I'm really looking forward to this.
16:21I have had, like, relationships with people outside Brazil.
16:25And I love Americans.
16:27But usually I like men to have long hair.
16:32Wow, that looks great.
16:34But actually something that is attractive to me is his muscle.
16:38That's nice.
16:39So let's see how things go.
16:42Cool.
16:43Let's do this.
16:53Oh, yours is definitely coming out better than mine.
16:55I like that blue.
16:56I like those too, man.
16:57Yeah.
16:59I think my pig's been sitting out in the sun too long.
17:02I think it got sunburned.
17:04I love yours.
17:05Oh, yeah.
17:06It's good.
17:07It's good.
17:08Nice.
17:09Your pig is pretty cool.
17:10I think for your first graffiti, it's pretty good.
17:13Bye, bye, bye.
17:14Give me my camera.
17:17All right.
17:18Your art was pretty amazing.
17:23So, like, what are you looking for out of a relationship?
17:27For sure, like, someone loyal, honest.
17:31That's really important.
17:32Yeah, I mean, those are kind of, like, you know, general things that every woman wants,
17:37right?
17:38Mm-hmm.
17:39You want to, like, more specific, like...
17:40Yeah, well, like, what do you want?
17:44I don't know if I should tell you.
17:45No.
17:46No, it doesn't make sense.
17:47It's okay, you know.
17:48You're not going to hurt my feelings.
17:50I'm always attracted more...
17:52Um, hair.
17:54Oh, okay.
17:56Sorry.
17:57What about your...
17:59Do you want to share a little bit, like, about everything that you want?
18:03Um, well...
18:04Before that, I have to ask...
18:06Would you consider yourself, like, a flashy person?
18:09Flashy?
18:10Flashy, yeah.
18:11What is flashy?
18:12Like, uh...
18:13Kind of, like, showing off, like, hey, look at me, I'm cool.
18:17Zero.
18:18No?
18:19I just noticed the diamond in your tooth.
18:25So, like, I've never seen anybody in the U.S. with diamonds in their teeth before.
18:28Really?
18:29Except for, like, a wrapper or something like that, and it's, it's like a grill.
18:32It's not like a real diamond in their tooth.
18:34So, you think it's strange in my, my piercing?
18:38Um, I'm not a big fan.
18:40Mm-hmm.
18:41Not a big fan.
18:42Uh-oh.
18:43I believe that she doesn't like me.
18:47But to be extremely honest, I don't really care because I don't really like her anymore.
18:52I was so distracted by the diamond in her tooth.
18:55I don't even know where you go to get a diamond in your tooth.
19:00So, I am getting tired.
19:02I should've, like, I guess I should've, like, maybe go...
19:04Okay, yeah.
19:05It's getting a little late.
19:06Yeah.
19:08I'm extremely disappointed in Louisa and her inability to try to find the woman that I want to be with for a long-term relationship.
19:23What do you want to wager?
19:25If I win the rest of the time you're here, you just date me.
19:30Yeah?
19:34Did she tell you about our kiss?
19:36Oh, s***.
19:38You guys kiss her?
19:39No!
19:40Did she?
19:41What?
19:42Oh, gosh.
19:43You naughty girl, you didn't tell me everything.
19:44It was not planned.
19:45Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
19:56Oh, you took me, huh?
19:57Hmm?
19:58You took my underwear.
19:59Oh.
20:00Oh.
20:01Oh.
20:02Oh, stop.
20:03Ha, ha, ha, ha.
20:04You're so funny.
20:05I'm done.
20:06That is done.
20:07Ain't no fun in it.
20:08I wish they could be high.
20:09They could be high.
20:10They could be high.
20:12Look at this view.
20:15Oh, this is nuts.
20:16Yeah.
20:17I wake up looking at horses, laying next to a stallion.
20:21And now I'm about to go and have some more adventures.
20:26Yeah.
20:27This is just too much.
20:29Thank you so much for this.
20:31No problem.
20:32Mm-hmm.
20:34Come on.
20:36Let's do it.
20:37Look at your butt.
20:38Mm-hmm.
20:39Oh, my God.
20:40Okay.
20:46Look at your butt.
20:47Hey, guys.
20:48Hi.
20:49Nice to meet you.
20:50So I'll give this to yourself.
20:52And that is for yourself.
20:53Have you done the archery before?
20:55No.
20:56Yep.
20:57No worries.
20:58After last night, Keevan definitely is back in the running as a contender for my love.
21:13So the hand goes in there nice and firmly.
21:15Mm-hmm.
21:16And then the arrow is going to go over.
21:18Me and Keevan had an amazing time.
21:21We slept like two little bears in hibernation.
21:23It was some good sleep.
21:24Did you and Keevan have sex last night?
21:28Keevan and I did not have sex last night.
21:30It was no knocking or rocking.
21:33Nothing.
21:34Don't get me wrong.
21:36Keevan is very sexy, but I want to be clear-minded.
21:40And sex just confuses things.
21:42You know what I did do in the bed?
21:44Ate the rest of my damn spaghetti.
21:48I wager you some sonatine.
21:50All right.
21:51Okay.
21:52What do you want to wager?
21:55Well, how about if I win, for the rest of the time you're here, you just date me.
22:03And you don't go on another date.
22:05Okay.
22:06Yeah?
22:07Let's see how we go.
22:08Let's see what you got.
22:12Oh, nice.
22:16Come on.
22:17Let me see what you got, daddy.
22:19Damn!
22:20Boy!
22:25Oh!
22:27Three, two, and go.
22:29So, yeah.
22:30She got the wrench.
22:31Takes that one.
22:32Nice.
22:33But I ain't mad about the bit.
22:35You got a hairy kiss.
22:38So I lost my wager.
22:40I love that Keevan is starting to show me that he's interested.
22:45He wants me to stop dating other people.
22:48It makes me feel like he's fighting for me and really cares.
22:51It sounds like he did have some jealousy of me going on other dates.
22:55And that's definitely why he didn't reach out.
22:57But him showing me emotions is what I wanted all along.
23:01That's amazing.
23:02Heck yeah.
23:03Now I feel like I want to do something else.
23:05Careful.
23:06Oh.
23:08Nice.
23:09Nice.
23:10My phone just fell out.
23:11Yeah.
23:12My boob did, too, actually.
23:13Hold on.
23:14Oh.
23:16I like that Amber has kind of a childlike sensibility.
23:19She's not afraid to kind of just give in to, like, little impulses.
23:24It's a very likable trait.
23:26Katerina gave me some nice advice.
23:29And, yeah, I'm really, really glad.
23:31We're at a good place at the moment, I feel.
23:33It's just really nice.
23:37Oh, my gosh.
23:39Thank you for this weekend.
23:40No problem.
23:41You've had a good time.
23:42I've had an amazing time.
23:45Gosh, this is so pretty, man.
23:49Have you ever, like, say we've gone on a few more dates
23:51and we decide we want to keep in touch,
23:53keep, you know, potentially seeing each other?
23:55Is a long-distance thing anything you've experienced
23:58or what are your thoughts on it?
23:59Um, I've never been in, like, a relationship
24:03where my boyfriend literally lives 4,000 miles away.
24:07That's why I was like,
24:08we're gonna have to work on our communication
24:10because if we were girlfriend and boyfriend
24:12and we lived that far apart
24:13and I didn't talk to you for, like, three, four days,
24:15yeah, I'm calling the local hospitals
24:18and seeing what's going on.
24:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:20No, no, you're right, you're right.
24:21Like, a lot of challenges to it.
24:23But there's always a potential of being here, living here.
24:27Yeah.
24:28Or, like, Fort Worth.
24:29Or we could go anywhere in the world.
24:31We don't even have to be secluded
24:32to just being in these two places.
24:33That's true, that's true.
24:34Yeah, yeah, that's true.
24:35Yeah, yeah.
24:36Like, a lot of Irish people go to Canada
24:39and they give visas.
24:41So that's something I was considering anyway.
24:43Oh, that's cool.
24:44It's like, yeah, something I've been looking into.
24:46Finally, you're chiseling away and telling me
24:50what your heart's desires are.
24:52I'm liking him the more that I learn about him.
24:55And it may take him a minute to open up,
24:57but that's not a bad thing.
24:59In terms of living abroad,
25:01it's something I am pretty open to at the moment.
25:04Yeah, I am too.
25:05I actually am too.
25:06I actually am too.
25:07Yeah.
25:11This weekend was more than I could have ever expected,
25:14especially from Keevan.
25:16It's reignited my excitement for him.
25:19But I've really been thinking about Glenn.
25:21Glenn has been texting me every day since our last date,
25:24and I know that I still have to explore
25:28what the possibilities could be with Glenn.
25:30I'm torn because both of these guys
25:32are two totally different characters.
25:35I'm trying to tap into future Amber
25:38and see what does she want?
25:40Does she want a life with Glenn that's exciting,
25:44but also unsettling?
25:47Because I feel like he's trying to pressure me
25:49into something too fast.
25:50Or do I want something that's simple, quiet,
25:53and just you don't know where you're going to go?
25:57I don't know what to do.
25:59Your hands feel like a freaking ice cube.
26:04Let's just get in and out of the cold.
26:06Yes, please.
26:07Let's do it.
26:08Let's do it.
26:19So you have a checklist for Amber?
26:21Very true, yes.
26:23Did she check the boxes?
26:25She checked them all.
26:26Just...
26:27She checked them all?
26:28That you didn't tell me?
26:29I didn't know I checked them all.
26:32Joe is grilling me kind of hard.
26:36With this being the ultimate test of our relationship,
26:38up to this point,
26:39I'm very alert and very focused.
26:41But I'll just be myself,
26:42and if I can use this opportunity wisely,
26:44she can ask me the right question,
26:46then I'll have another advocate,
26:47another voice on her shoulder to say,
26:49yes, Harold is the one.
26:50Don't hesitate.
26:51Go, go, go, go.
26:55Tell me more about the dates.
26:57Oh, dating is expensive in Singapore.
27:00That's why I work all year and save on money and...
27:04Just push.
27:05Just push.
27:06But I'm dating with intention.
27:08I want to...
27:09Dating with intention?
27:11Uh-huh.
27:12Intention for marriage and family and partner and...
27:18What?
27:19Uh...
27:20Did she tell you about our kiss?
27:30Oh, s***.
27:32You guys kiss this?
27:33No, she didn't.
27:34Oh, s***.
27:35What?
27:38Oh, gosh.
27:40You naughty girl.
27:41You didn't tell me everything.
27:43It was not planned.
27:44It was not planned.
27:45It was an accidental kiss.
27:47Yeah, right?
27:48Yes.
27:49I was willing to kiss his cheek.
27:52And you learn my kiss on the cheek to a mouth-to-mouth kiss.
27:58Ah.
27:59My friend missed the most important thing out about her date.
28:08Hmm.
28:09I guess she was too shy about it, maybe.
28:11That's why I think she likes him, too.
28:14Otherwise...
28:15You know, why would she didn't tell me?
28:17Who?
28:18I'm gonna just enjoy my grilled meats.
28:19You too.
28:20You do the grilling.
28:21He be grilled.
28:22I'm flame retardant.
28:23I don't burn.
28:24I mean...
28:25Tell me more about...
28:26She told me about you being on the spectrum.
28:27Yes.
28:28It's something that bothered me in childhood because I used to have to make a list of things just not to say in front of people.
28:45No filter, is that what you're...
28:46No filter.
28:47Is that what you're thinking?
28:48No filter.
28:49Is that what you're thinking?
28:50Yes, no filter.
28:51I would put my foot in my mouth.
28:52Yes.
28:53Actually, I do that too.
28:54I do.
28:55She does too.
28:56I know.
28:57She does too.
28:58I know.
28:59I do.
29:00A lot of men generally are very socially awkward.
29:03Which is true.
29:04In Singapore, yes?
29:05In Singapore, definitely, yes.
29:06So...
29:07Sometimes I think autism and maybe autistic could be just another word for super smart people.
29:13No.
29:14It could be.
29:15Neurodiverse.
29:16Yeah, but...
29:17I like that.
29:18I like that term better.
29:21He always says he...
29:23He's an open book.
29:25He's easy to read.
29:26Very easy to read.
29:27Easy to read is good, right?
29:29Why do you want complications?
29:31Simplicity is great.
29:32Yes.
29:33I agree.
29:34I agree.
29:35I think Harold has done a fantastic job of getting Joe on his side.
29:40I think she's totally smitten with him.
29:42And it's definitely nice to get Joe's validation
29:48that Harold and I are good for each other,
29:51even though I may not do it as strongly yet.
29:54I mean, of course, I'm happy.
29:56But at the same time,
29:57I'm a little scared that he might fall too deep too fast.
30:02Is this good?
30:04He's got a good sense of humour.
30:06Okay.
30:07He just hasn't met the right girl.
30:09Uh-huh.
30:10Right? Just like you haven't met the right guy for a very long time, I must add.
30:14Yes.
30:15He's totally into you.
30:16I can tell.
30:17Dinner was a smashing success.
30:21I have a new friend and new advocate.
30:25But the thought of leaving Amber in two days crushes me
30:29because we haven't solidified anything yet.
30:31No title, no ring.
30:33I don't want to go home empty-handed.
30:35I think it's good for you.
30:37I think you guys just might be able to make it work.
30:40Oh, thank you.
30:42I wish to learn her love languages.
30:44I wish to know that magic phrase I could whisper and have her fall in love with me.
30:48But I'm kind of in a rush.
30:50I want to have a plan to make it happen.
30:54Mm-hmm.
30:55I made it out okay.
30:56I'm relatively unscathed.
31:02What are your intentions?
31:04I don't fall in love with fun.
31:06How recent was your breakup?
31:08One and a half months ago.
31:10Are you serious?
31:11Are you serious?
31:20Please, your breakup destination.
31:22Thank you, Hoi.
31:23You're welcome.
31:24Thank you, Hoi.
31:25You're welcome.
31:26You're welcome.
31:39You ready?
31:40Good.
31:41My mom is my best friend, and obviously I've already told her everything about EJ.
31:45So after I found out that EJ is leaving so soon, I rushed to put together a meet and greet for him and my mom.
31:55Because, you know, her opinion really means a lot to me.
31:58Oh.
31:59Hello, hello.
32:00Hello.
32:01EJ, this is my mother, Kitty.
32:04Hi.
32:05Nice to meet you.
32:06So nice to meet you.
32:08So good to see you.
32:09Love you someday.
32:10Oh.
32:11Happy Mother's Day.
32:12Oh, my God.
32:13You need it.
32:14You need it.
32:15Oh, my God.
32:16That is so sweet.
32:19That's very sweet.
32:21That's so nice.
32:22Oh, I too.
32:23Even though I really like EJ, I have been caught up in love in the past.
32:28When you are into someone, you tend to have rose-colored glasses.
32:32But my mom is a great judge of character, so she might be able to see any red flags that I could be ignoring.
32:39So, you know, we live in Houston, obviously.
32:43Yeah.
32:44Have you ever been to the U.S.?
32:45No, no, no.
32:46No?
32:47You've got to come to Houston.
32:48There's a lot of places, yeah.
32:49We'll show you the rodeo.
32:50Oh, nice.
32:51We'll get you some boots.
32:52Okay.
32:53A cowboy hat.
32:54You look really cute in the cowboy hat.
32:56That'll be fun.
32:57He knocked it out of the park with the first impression.
33:03He's self-assured, confident, very masculine as well.
33:08But still, I'm here as, you know, extra eyes and ears.
33:12I might be a little bit forward, but I intend to ask a few hard questions about intentions.
33:18She mentioned that you had been married before.
33:22Yes.
33:23Been divorced now for...
33:24About 13 years, correct.
33:25About 13 years, okay.
33:26Correct.
33:27So, what is your philosophy going forward?
33:31Would you ever get married again?
33:33You're the right person.
33:34Yes.
33:35You're the right person.
33:36If you don't mind me asking, Sarah, my amazing, incredible, beautiful daughter,
33:41she wouldn't have come all this way if she weren't serious.
33:45You know, she's looking for love.
33:47So, what are your intentions?
33:54The breakup that I just had recently was actually, if not for the breakup, I would not have worked with Dolly.
34:03Okay.
34:04And then because of the breakup, I decide to say, okay, I'm going to give myself a chance to go and find love again.
34:11So, how recent was your breakup?
34:13One and a half months ago.
34:17That's pretty recent.
34:18I mean, that's why I say if I fall in love, I fall in love.
34:21I don't fall in love for fun.
34:23I want to be with someone who can actually lift me and make me a better person.
34:29Right?
34:30So, to me, that's very important.
34:32I couldn't agree more.
34:35You're being awfully quiet over there.
34:37I'm just letting y'all get acquainted.
34:39Good.
34:40Yeah.
34:41Letting you ask him the hard questions.
34:42Hopefully, that hasn't meant to you.
34:44I mean, you haven't seemed gaunted by any of my hard questions.
34:48There's nothing to hide.
34:49I mean, it's okay.
34:50I like that.
34:52So, you're getting ready to go on a bodybuilding?
34:56Yeah.
34:57Competition.
34:58I'm supposed to leave the day after tomorrow.
35:02Okay.
35:03But...
35:04This is all the time you have here in Singapore.
35:09And some things can never be repeated.
35:13The moment, the feeling, the time that we spent.
35:16So...
35:17I won't be going for that conversation.
35:19Are you serious?
35:21I can't have you not go.
35:24What I feel, there will always be a conversation.
35:30But I may not be able to always spend this time together with you.
35:34Yay!
35:35That's so sweet.
35:36That's awesome.
35:37Things between me and Sarah are doing really well.
35:40I mean, I thought about it all day.
35:41And I think we have to spend a little bit more time to really figure out, you know,
35:46even more tougher questions that we need to ask to see whether we are the right match.
35:50There are going to be many, many other competitions and only one Sarah.
35:53So, I had to make the choice.
35:55I'm so happy.
36:09I'm so happy.
36:10I was honestly really sad when you told me that you were leaving,
36:13because I really did feel like we connected.
36:15So, I'm honestly extremely excited.
36:18I know that this bodybuilding competition meant a lot to EJ,
36:23but I do appreciate the sacrifice, though, that he's making for me.
36:27And it is kind of sexy that he's so passionate about our potential future together.
36:32I really love to feel special.
36:34And you just made me feel really special, so thank you.
36:38I can tell that my mom is impressed, which is a huge relief.
36:43On our next date, I'm hoping that EJ and I can figure out where this is going.
36:48And maybe EJ will try to kiss me.
36:51So, what should we do?
36:53Yeah.
36:54What should you do?
36:55I'm not going to third wheel on that one.
36:57Let me plan something.
36:59Okay, perfect.
37:00We can't wait.
37:01I got this message saying it was the worst date.
37:09I'm meeting up with Tony, and I don't know there is much more I can do for him.
37:15I'm not going to do this anymore.
37:17I know you've been hurt.
37:18It's written on your face.
37:19But I see your words.
37:20And we've all made mistakes.
37:21I know that you want to change.
37:23Got me feeling so alive.
37:24Together day and night.
37:25I know you can.
37:26I know you've been hurt.
37:27I know you've been hurt.
37:28It's written on your face.
37:30But I see your words.
37:32And we've all made mistakes.
37:34I know that you want to change.
37:36Got me feeling so alive.
37:38Together day and night.
37:40It's been a couple of days since I sent Tony out on his date with Thais.
37:58So I'm meeting up with him today to talk about how things went.
38:03I got this message from Thais not happy saying it was the worst date she had.
38:33I got this message from Thais and he doesn't like people different.
38:38Thais is the last match I had left for Tony.
38:41He has rejected all his potential matches without trying to get to know them better.
38:47And I don't know there is much more I can do for him.
38:52I've introduced to him so many girls.
38:56And he saw a problem in each of them.
38:59He is not open.
39:01He's not doing things differently.
39:03He say everyone is damaged and traumatic people and things like this.
39:09He's talking about himself.
39:10He is the damaged one.
39:14He is the insecure guy.
39:18He can meet all girls in the world.
39:21Nobody is going to fit in here.
39:23It's his criteria.
39:26He needs help.
39:27I can't help him.
39:32I'm not going to do this anymore.
39:34Because if I introduce him another one, he's going to find a problem in her.
39:40And he's going to offend her.
39:46I'm ready to fire him.
39:47Next time on Match Me Abroad.
39:56I had two awesome dates with Amber.
39:59It's possible that I could extend my stay.
40:01Yeah.
40:03I hope that it will show Amber that I am serious and I'm here for the long haul.
40:07She likes taking the relationship really slow.
40:10She is still making up her mind if she wants to be in a relationship with you.
40:16So can you be patient with Amber?
40:22One, two, three, four.
40:24Heels long.
40:25I need a little height.
40:27I'm 100% sure I see this relationship progressing further.
40:31I really think we will end up together.
40:33She just doesn't know it yet, maybe.
40:35You ready for our third date?
40:37Have you broken up with him yet?
40:38Hey!
40:39Hey!
40:40Wow!
40:41We should, like, take it as a pet, not eat it.
40:46We have been having so much fun together, but we have a lot of things to figure out for sure.
40:51In a perfect world, when actually would be your timing to have children?
40:57Like, at least, minimum of at least two years.
