00:00Previously on The Single Life.
00:02Girl's trip!
00:04I've recently filed for divorce.
00:06So what better way to celebrate them with a girl's trip?
00:09Sophie B, all here because of you.
00:11And we have a special guy who we come to see.
00:14I've been talking to this guy.
00:15His name is Pedro.
00:18And yeah, it is that Pedro from Chantel and Pedro.
00:23But I don't want to rush it the same way I rushed my marriage.
00:26You're separated right now.
00:27Are you still married?
00:28I'm still excited to be married.
00:30Any hookups with him?
00:31Yeah.
00:32They've been hookups.
00:34And she never told me they did hookups before.
00:36What the we doing here?
00:40I want to look good for Natalie, so I bought a couple of new shirts.
00:44My first attempt at dating Natalie, it didn't go very well.
00:47But I asked her if I could visit her, and she said yes.
00:51I have some nervousness.
00:53It's a little nerve-wracking.
00:55I know it's my last shot, and I cannot mess it up.
00:59I have two roommates.
01:01Oh, two.
01:02I used to date one of them.
01:04Sadly, I cheated on her.
01:06Oh.
01:07It is hard as to find a good man in your 50s.
01:10Maybe dating isn't something you should be stressing too hard about.
01:14You have a lot of other things going on.
01:17I've been carrying a really big secret for about 30 years.
01:21Jamal has an older brother named Larry that I put up for adoption.
01:24You think you're going to have a deep talk with him?
01:26I have to have a deep talk with him.
01:28About what?
01:29About the other one.
01:31Larry wasn't the only child that I put up for adoption.
01:34I also had a daughter.
01:35I don't know, man.
02:20I'm sorry that Sophie's here and they are with her friends.
02:23I really, really want a relationship with Sophie.
02:26But she has sex with the ex a couple of months ago,
02:29so I don't know if she's ready to let it go to pass.
02:43I don't like this situation,
02:45but I want to let it go because I like her.
02:48And I want to do whatever it takes to win Sophie over.
02:51Well, how'd your conversation go?
02:54We're getting to know each other,
02:55but that's the extent that I'm ready for it.
02:57If he just lets me open up myself, it will be better for me.
03:02So can you take a step back?
03:04Yes.
03:04And you will take a step forward.
03:05Step forward, yeah, yeah.
03:07Pedro's coming on very strong.
03:09You know what Pedro asked me?
03:10He asked me if I can rob.
03:12And what do you say?
03:13I said...
03:14Truth?
03:14Yeah, I said the truth.
03:15Why am I going to lie?
03:16And what did he say?
03:17He was not happy.
03:19Oh.
03:20Like, I feel like he kind of was judging me.
03:22Even if you say yes,
03:23I sleep with him yesterday before I came to DR.
03:27It's nothing because you're not a relationship.
03:29You're dating.
03:31How about me?
03:31I need a pig.
03:35Hi, Sophie.
03:36Oh, hi.
03:38What's up, bro?
03:39Bitch.
03:40Hi.
03:40How you doing?
03:41I'm having a great time.
03:42Sophie's been talking about me?
03:45So, Sophie's definitely been like, like, he's the first guy to buy me flowers.
03:50And she said that you're so, like, respectful.
03:54Like, very sweet.
03:55You're very sweet and romantic.
03:57Are we serious about her?
03:58I am.
04:00Are you all?
04:01I am.
04:02Yeah, hi.
04:02You're thinking that she really want this?
04:05Like, she's been a little distant these days, you know?
04:07I think, you know, she just recently is just getting out of this marriage and relationship.
04:13And it seems like you've been kind of separated and divorced for a while.
04:16She's in the beginning stages of trying to, like, discover, like, where she's at.
04:22That's really scary.
04:22Like, she want to discover more of that side?
04:25No, no, no.
04:25Not discover more.
04:27She needs to, she's still healing.
04:30She's still healing?
04:31Healing, yeah.
04:32Yeah.
04:34I didn't feel that Liz is holding back and she's not telling me the whole story.
04:38She didn't say directly, but it's made me think that Sophie's not ready for a
04:43relationship.
04:45Like, what the ?
04:46I've been doing all those things for you and right now maybe you're not ready for a relationship?
04:50That makes me feel like a freaking idiot.
04:54What are we interrupting right now?
04:55Nothing.
04:56What are we doing?
04:57Nothing.
04:57I think in VR, Tyra.
05:00No.
05:00And we have to go back to the resort.
05:03I'm ready for bed.
05:04Let's bring you to the band, ladies.
05:06Okay?
05:07I'm going to bedchata.
05:09I came to the DR to be single and mingle.
05:14First night, crushed it.
05:16Have a good night.
05:16I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
05:17Make sure he gets home safe, make sure you get home safe.
05:19I'll go ahead and give you a text.
05:19You have my number, okay?
05:21All right.
05:21All right, have a good night.
05:22I even got a number.
05:24Via is so sexy and so sweet.
05:26I'm so excited to see him again.
05:28I see you tomorrow?
05:29Yes.
05:30Yes, for sure?
05:32Yeah, let me know what you're going to do.
05:33Okay.
05:34A little to the beach, maybe.
05:35Do something.
05:35Yeah, I want to go to the beach.
05:37Honestly, for me, the night has just been very overwhelming.
05:40And Pedro definitely came on a lot stronger tonight than I anticipated.
05:45Him pushing me forward or trying to pressure me to something is only going to make me step back.
05:49And things between us are just going to end before they've even started.
05:52Pedro just needs to take things a little bit slower.
06:02I want a relationship with Sophie.
06:04I didn't feel like she's like a true diamond.
06:06And I know that we can be really good together.
06:09Bye, princess.
06:10Bye.
06:10Take care.
06:11But if she's not serious about me, what's she doing in the heart with me?
06:16I don't know what's going on.
06:18It's freaking up.
06:35As much as I want to sit here and, like, talk about how, like, I feel bad for you and
06:39stuff.
06:40I don't expect you to feel bad for me.
06:41I've never asked you to.
06:42I know I don't.
06:52Like, I know it's, like, a lot for you.
06:55But I caused it.
06:56Yeah, it's your fault.
07:00So I just don't have Jamal as a son.
07:04I have Larry, who I put up for adoption when I was 21 years old.
07:10Last year, when I told Jamal of all of this and all of this opened,
07:16it hurt worse because I had hid it for so long.
07:22It just sucks, dude.
07:24Like, me thinking I was the only child, but then finding out,
07:27not only my non-only child, I have, like, multiple siblings.
07:34Larry wasn't the only child that I put up for adoption.
07:37I also had a daughter a year later.
07:40My relationship with Jamal's dad at that point was not good,
07:43and I had to do what was best for me at the time.
07:48I don't regret what I did, but I'm not happy with what I did either.
07:56Because you're bringing these beautiful beings into this world.
08:02And you feel that motherly love, and you feel that maternal thing,
08:05and knowing what you're doing, and knowing that you're giving them up for adoption.
08:11It's probably one of the hardest things I think any birth mother has to go through.
08:18I knew about my sister when I was 12, and then I found out about Larry,
08:21because he found you a year ago.
08:24It's like, why in that gap you didn't just tell me about him?
08:29I just didn't know how. I really just did not know how.
08:34When Jamal was 12, he overheard me and my mother talking about his sister,
08:39and that's how Jamal found out.
08:41I think I only told Jamal about one, because I just thought to me one would make sense,
08:47but to do it twice, I didn't want to him up.
08:53Did I handle it well? No, not at all.
08:57I don't know. I really feel for Larry not telling him about our full-blood sister.
09:04I feel like every time I talk to him, it's like I'm hiding a truth from him,
09:08and I feel like about it.
09:11Do you not think I feel like too?
09:16I didn't tell Larry about his sister when he first found me,
09:19because I was trying to get to know him, he was trying to get to know me,
09:24and I just couldn't figure out a way to tell him.
09:27But now Larry wants to come visit us, and I have to go into this being completely 100% transparent.
09:35We can't build a strong, honest relationship if I'm keeping secrets from him.
09:44So I'm going to tell him about his sister, but I feel like I don't want you to be there
09:48when I tell him,
09:48so don't worry about that. I'll take care of myself.
09:50Why would I not be there? I feel like I do want to be there, because like,
09:55and I don't want to sound like a dick, but I don't know what you're going to tell him.
09:59Let me tell him the truth.
10:00I don't know. I don't know.
10:06I feel really protective of Larry, because I don't want my mom to lie to him like she lied to
10:13me.
10:15I'm hoping me and my mom can get back to how we used to be,
10:21but it's going to take a lot of rebuilding of trust. Like her actually being transparent with Larry,
10:28because right now I just, I just don't trust her anymore.
10:36Anyway, let me know when Larry's coming.
10:47All right, I'm out.
10:49All right, love you.
10:50Bye.
10:57Telling Larry about his sister is going to be really difficult, but I know I have to do this,
11:02because it's killing me. It is literally killing me.
11:06And it's like, I feel like I'm like drowning sometimes, and I have to like swim just to get to
11:10the top.
11:15You know, the way I handled it was terrible. It was awful.
11:18Do you think this was easy for me to live with my whole life?
11:21For 30, 35 years? 34 years? It was awful.
11:26All of this has affected my self-esteem, my self-worth.
11:30But I feel like now I have to like gain Jamal's trust back.
11:34I want to build a bigger relationship with Larry.
11:37And I feel like I want to find love. I want somebody to accept me for all this craziness that's
11:43going on.
11:45I think having Larry out here and just talking to him and being real,
11:48and then, you know, just having transparent conversations is going to help a lot.
11:51That's what I'm hopeful for.
11:56Morning, family.
11:58Good morning.
11:59Morning.
12:01Courtney and I met two months ago at a singles retreat in Mexico.
12:04Things got romantic, so she invited me to live with her in Florida at her parents' house.
12:12There it is. There it is. Ooh, nice one.
12:15Do you think they have sex more than we do?
12:16I think it's more than what we're doing, so.
12:20I was talking to Liz. She told me like,
12:23oh yeah, you do amazing things for Sophie, but are you sure that she want to be with you?
12:30She made me feel a little bit like, how do you say? Like, be careful.
12:34Wait, what did she exactly say?
12:37To go behind my back, that's breaking girl code. Like, you don't do that. I'm really pissed.
13:00Is there anyone golfing with us today?
13:02No, just us.
13:03Okay, okay. Joe at the club the other day told me a funny joke. How come most golfers bring two,
13:12two pairs of pants with them?
13:13I don't know. Why?
13:15Then in case they get a hole in one.
13:17Ah! I like it.
13:19So I gotta bring three pair with me.
13:22Get some more pants, yeah.
13:28You guys are being so loud.
13:30I'm so slow.
13:31Huh?
13:31What are you guys doing?
13:33We're getting ready to go golfing.
13:36Good morning, sunshine.
13:49Well, I'm glad you're up, Courtney, because this morning I woke up at 4 o'clock because I was
13:54freezing and I looked at the thermostat and it was set on 67 degrees.
14:01What does that say right now?
14:03Is somebody sick?
14:04Yeah, and that's where it's gonna stay because we pay the bills.
14:08I'm Courtney. I'm 34. I live with my parents in Orlando, Florida.
14:12It's so hot last night. I couldn't sleep.
14:14Courtney, when you own your own house, you can freeze all you want.
14:18I live with my parents because they're better than any roommate I've had.
14:22I'm sorry.
14:23Yeah, sorry. That don't pay the bills.
14:26And also, when I've lived with roommates, it's so much drama.
14:29It's almost like being in the jungle or something.
14:32I think I'm just like prancing around like a little just gazelle, whatever they're called,
14:36and people are just like, ah!
14:38I don't need that in my life.
14:40I just want peace, quiet, like live a nice retirement lifestyle.
14:45When we were your age, we were almost on our second home by then.
14:49With two little kids and mouse to feed.
14:53I've been telling my parents for years I don't want to move out until I get married,
14:57but my love life has been all drama.
15:05One of my biggest heartbreaks was Antonio.
15:08We met online. I flew to Spain to meet him.
15:11We got along great.
15:13Like, I thought he was the one.
15:15But there were too many trust issues.
15:18Like, I picked up your phone for like five seconds and you're like texting like Angel,
15:23Paulina, Maria.
15:28Since Antonio, I've dated a bunch, but it seems like things always end with me in tears.
15:34It makes me sad how much you've changed.
15:36Like, I'm like, people do change for you.
15:39I don't like it.
15:40And I think my parents are starting to worry that I might be living with them forever.
15:47I love living with you guys. I think you're the best roommates I've had.
15:51Well, yeah, because mom does your laundry for you and cooks for you and gets your groceries.
15:55Oh, what is this?
15:58Oh my God.
15:59Oh.
16:00Sorry, mom.
16:03What's that all about?
16:04I have no idea.
16:07You put your underwear in my mom's laundry.
16:09Again.
16:11This is like the third time you've done it.
16:15Good morning.
16:29I just woke up and my dad's already mad at me for messing with the thermostat.
16:33It keeps it a little too high.
16:36I'm Colt. I'm 39 years old.
16:38And I live in Orlando, Florida with my girlfriend, Courtney, and her parents.
16:43I know it's one of his number one rules.
16:46No, I shall not change the thermostat.
16:48Yeah, and put your dirty underwear in the laundry.
16:51I did put it in the laundry. I put it in the basket.
16:55Courtney and I met two months ago at a singles retreat in Mexico.
16:58I was there because, unfortunately, I have not been lucky in love.
17:06Larissa was my first wife, a fiery Brazilian.
17:09Coach, you're a fat loser that lives with your mother.
17:12But, unfortunately, things got toxic really fast.
17:16you asshole.
17:18I met Jess after my divorce from Larissa.
17:23What?
17:24Whoa!
17:25What the ?
17:26You lie!
17:26What are you talking about?
17:27Vanessa talking with your friends.
17:29You talk every day!
17:31I cheated on Jess with a woman named Vanessa, who would literally become my second wife.
17:38But after being married for three years, she told me that she didn't want to be with me anymore,
17:42and she wasn't in love with me, and it broke my heart.
17:44I just had it.
17:48I always go into relationships with the best of intentions.
17:51I want things to work out.
17:53But somehow or another, I mess things up.
17:56I hope things can be different with Courtney.
17:59Morning, family.
18:01Well, morning.
18:02Sorry about the laundry, guys.
18:05I really appreciate everything you guys have been doing.
18:07How is your leg?
18:09You know, I still feel a lot of pain most days.
18:12But I think everything happens for a reason.
18:14Like, we're together because of it.
18:17Oh, my God.
18:18Are you okay, Will?
18:20No.
18:21That's the leg I broke.
18:22I can't move it.
18:23While I was at the singles retreat in Mexico, I was leaving Courtney's room,
18:27and I slipped and fell, and I broke my leg.
18:31I have five fractures in my knee.
18:34Colt was in the hospital for about three weeks.
18:36I was there with him almost 24-7.
18:40So that's when we really started bonding.
18:43I'm so glad you're here.
18:45Aw.
18:46Things got romantic.
18:48So when I was discharged, she invited me to live with her in Florida.
18:53She knew I didn't have anywhere to go.
18:54I had a long road to recovery, and she wanted to help me as much as possible.
18:59I'm glad you're here.
19:00I'm glad I'm here, too.
19:03I know you're in a lot of pain, but why don't you guys come golf with us?
19:07You can ride in the golf cart, get some fresh air.
19:09Do you want to go?
19:10Yeah, that'd be great.
19:12Okay, if you're going to go, let's go.
19:13Let's go get ready.
19:14I'll help you.
19:15Okay.
19:22Do you want your titties shaved, Jen?
19:24I guess.
19:25Oh, look at that.
19:28I brought him to Florida to help him go through physical therapy, take care of him, and I really
19:35hoped he'd be further along in his recovery by now, but basically, I'm his full-time nurse.
19:41Do you want to wear the green or the tan?
19:43I'll leave the tan.
19:44Okay.
19:45He could barely even wipe his ass by himself.
19:49They're tight.
19:52I feel some things should probably be left unseen, especially so early on in a relationship.
20:01Push.
20:02Oh my God, you're going to knock me off.
20:09Off-road driving.
20:12Here.
20:14Okay.
20:15Straight ahead, I believe.
20:17You got this.
20:18I have confidence in you.
20:20Your turn, Courtney.
20:22Good luck.
20:25You got this.
20:26You went up too steep.
20:28There you go.
20:29Yay, Courtney.
20:31I see it.
20:36There it is.
20:36There it is.
20:37There it is.
20:37Ooh, nice one.
20:39They're so cute.
20:40You think they have sex more than we do?
20:42Oh my God.
20:43Like, ew.
20:43Why are you thinking that?
20:46But anything is more than what we're doing, so.
20:49Yeah.
20:52We haven't had sex, full-on sex yet.
20:55Right now, the plumbing doesn't work so well.
20:59Oh my God.
21:00We'll get there.
21:02It's a grower, you know?
21:04But it's very majestic when it's fully, you know, realized.
21:08It makes me feel, like, insecure.
21:12Like, am I your type?
21:13You're definitely my type.
21:14I mean, you know, we've had some success.
21:17But it's just when we transition into penetration,
21:23then I kind of go down.
21:26But why?
21:28I don't know.
21:28It hurts.
21:29I'm moving my body around.
21:30There's a lot of expectation.
21:31I'm still on medicine.
21:35Colt is, like, known for being, like, a horny bunny.
21:38Like, he wants to do it hourly.
21:39He wants it all the time.
21:41So the fact he can't get it up from me,
21:43it's making me wonder, like, is Colt here because he's into me?
21:48Or is he here out of convenience?
21:50Because he basically has everything provided for him.
21:53He's not paying rents.
21:54He's not paying bills.
21:55He has it pretty good.
21:57We're in this weird situation because I feel like I've known you forever.
22:02We get along.
22:03We don't argue.
22:04But then it's like, okay, I don't really know you.
22:07I've only known you, like, a month or two.
22:09Yeah.
22:10Let's be honest.
22:10Like, your exes are constantly online.
22:12Like, oh, you're a liar.
22:14You're a cheater.
22:14Like, they're not saying anything good about you.
22:16Why were they with me then?
22:19I mean, I'm sure they liked you in the beginning until you cheated on them.
22:24I mean, sure, I have a past.
22:26But, you know, it doesn't mean I'm always going to do that.
22:28It doesn't mean I can't be a good guy for you.
22:31Trust is everything in a relationship.
22:34But I do struggle to trust men in general because a lot of them do lie and cheat.
22:39I want to believe that Colt has changed.
22:42Maybe he's matured.
22:43Maybe he's grown up.
22:44Like, I know that we have a lot to figure out, but I want to do it with you.
22:48I want to figure out all these problems with you every day as we grow old together.
22:54I mean, I've always wanted to get married, have kids, have a family.
22:58Like, I feel me and Colt are aligned.
23:01We have a lot of the same goals.
23:03So I'm hoping it works.
23:05It has to work.
23:07We'll get there.
23:11I didn't like the way it ended for us.
23:13I understand that you didn't create the havoc, but there's a lot I felt I didn't know.
23:20I haven't seen Gino in almost a year.
23:22I want to believe that he truly made a mistake.
23:25But I don't know if I can trust Gino.
23:27I don't know if I can trust anything he says.
23:43It's a little nerve-wracking because I haven't seen Natalie in a long time.
23:47This is my chance.
23:57Now you make me count.
24:00Hey.
24:01Gino.
24:03How are you?
24:04I'm good.
24:05How are you?
24:06Doing good.
24:08Long time no see.
24:09How are you?
24:10How are you?
24:10I'm good.
24:11I'm good.
24:12You look thinner.
24:13You look thinner.
24:15After all the drama that happened, I did not expect Natalie to give me a second chance.
24:21I'm on your home turf this time.
24:22I know.
24:23This time you're in DC.
24:24I am absolutely super excited to have this opportunity to reconnect with her and make
24:32things right.
24:34Oh my gosh, it's so cool here.
24:36Yeah.
24:37You have some beautiful trees and hills and parks.
24:43You seem a little nervous.
24:45Are you okay?
24:47Well, I am nervous.
24:49I do have a little nerves coming here because last time we were together,
24:53you know, it didn't end very well.
24:55No, it didn't.
24:56You stormed out of the hotel and you were upset with me.
25:00Well, yeah, I mean, that was a disaster.
25:05So I haven't seen Gino in almost a year in person.
25:08And I really don't know how I feel about it right now because Gino has a lot of explaining to
25:14do.
25:14When I met Gino, one of my first questions that I asked him is, are you single?
25:20He said he was separated, about to get a divorce.
25:23But then he invited me to come to Michigan and meet his family.
25:28And I was kind of surprised by some of his cousin Michelle's comments.
25:35What's the deal with you and Jasmine?
25:37I mean, you guys just actually went out and had dinner.
25:43Was there hope for progress when you went?
25:47I mean, slight, slight.
25:51You know, he basically lied to me.
25:53So I just wanted to get out of there.
25:56And before I could, Jasmine walked in the door and attacked me.
26:02Why are we bringing the horse from Vegas?
26:05Don't touch her.
26:08Don't touch her.
26:09Relax, relax.
26:17I totally understand why you're upset after all that chaos at the party.
26:22I understand that you didn't create the havoc, but you kind of did create the havoc because
26:29I, there's a lot I didn't, I felt I didn't know.
26:35I shouldn't have been there in the first place.
26:37You know, that's how I felt.
26:39Okay, that makes a little more sense because I didn't like the way it ended for us.
26:44Neither did I.
26:45And I'm a little bit more recovered, I guess.
26:49Well, that's good.
26:50Now I, now I, it's taken some time.
26:53It doesn't happen right away.
26:54I know that.
26:55Um, back then I wasn't fully recovered.
26:57No, and I could tell.
26:59But anyway, it's all over.
27:01It's all over.
27:01It's done with, like, you're here now.
27:05Like, what do you want?
27:08Well, obviously, I want to, like, just hang out like we did in Vegas.
27:13We had fun together.
27:16And it was, you know, a good vibe, you know?
27:19I mean, I like that idea, you know?
27:21I like putting the past in the past and, you know, starting new.
27:24Yeah.
27:28You know, as much as I like Gino, I'm approaching this weekend with a lot of caution.
27:32I'm not going to deny that he's hurt me.
27:34But, you know, I understand what it's like to go through a destructive marriage and things happen.
27:40I want to believe that he truly made a mistake.
27:44The weather's pretty , but we can go back to my place.
27:48Ooh, you're inviting me to your place.
27:50Oh, my gosh.
27:51I'm scared.
27:53But I don't know if I can trust Gino.
27:55I don't know if I can trust anything he says.
27:57Let's go.
27:58Let's do it.
27:59I got an umbrella, too.
28:02If Gino wants something romantic with me, more than friends, he's got to prove that he's going to be honest.
28:07He's got to prove that he really wants this.
28:10So we'll see if he can.
28:13I can roll.
28:18I like things clear, you know?
28:20I've been clear to you.
28:21If you find somebody that doesn't want to sit down, they're going to have some fun,
28:24you open to die with somebody else.
28:27I am single, so I'm allowed to do whatever.
28:30I thought that we were exclusive with each other.
28:32If you die with the games to the beginning, that you are single and I am single,
28:37what the can I do all of this for you?
28:43I'm craving something, wow.
28:48Look at my evil smile.
28:52Okay, I have this yellow dress.
28:54Okay.
28:55Oh, I like it.
28:55I like this one.
28:56It's pretty cute.
28:58It's beachy.
28:58Yeah, it needs to be beachy.
29:00Why you put this dress there?
29:03Because I'm going to wear this one.
29:04Seriously?
29:06Yeah.
29:06Okay, here, let me look at your boobs.
29:16I'm going to get ready.
29:18Okay, have a good laugh.
29:19Give me a hug.
29:20I'll let you know how it goes.
29:22Last night with Prejo and his friends was just very awkward for me.
29:27Prejo was just coming on a lot stronger than he has in the past.
29:31It's not even that I don't appreciate the effort that he's making.
29:34It's not that, it's more so I can just feel he's putting too much pressure on it.
29:41You look amazing.
29:42Hello, thank you.
29:43How are you?
29:44Good.
29:44How are you?
29:45I'm good.
29:46I do like Prejo.
29:47Like, I want to get to know him.
29:49I want to go on dates and see where things go.
29:53You're welcome.
29:54But I just finished with my marriage and I'm healing from it.
29:57You feel good?
29:58Yeah.
29:59He just needs to chill.
30:00That's all he needs to do is just chill and let us get to know each other naturally.
30:03And, like, people usually do when they just meet.
30:10How do you feel today?
30:13I feel like I'm kind of tired.
30:16Your hair looks amazing.
30:18Do you prefer a straight or curly?
30:19I love both.
30:20You look amazing in every way.
30:23Oh, wow.
30:26That's nice.
30:28Did you have a good time yesterday?
30:30Yeah, I had a good time.
30:31You know, a little awkward, but...
30:33It was really awkward.
30:35This made me a little worried about, you know, because yesterday I was talking to Liz.
30:41And then she told me, like, oh, yeah, you do amazing thing for Sophie.
30:46You give me flowers.
30:47You give me this.
30:48You give me that.
30:49But are you sure that she want to be with you?
30:57That's made me a little bit like, what's going on here?
31:00Like, it's like...
31:01Wait, what did she exactly say?
31:03She made me feel, like, a little bit, like, insecure about all the things I've been doing.
31:10Maybe you have another guy in your mind.
31:12She made me feel, like, how do you say? Like, be careful.
31:18I invited Liz to the Dominican Republic.
31:20I thought we were friends.
31:21And then to go behind my back, she knows this up.
31:24She just met Pedro.
31:26That's not even her friend.
31:27That's breaking girl code.
31:29Like, you don't do that.
31:31I'm really pissed.
31:35I was in a relationship from when I was 20 years old, pretty much my whole adult life.
31:39I want to figure out what I want.
31:41I don't know what it is.
31:42I'm 33 years old, you know, looking for a serious relationship.
31:47We're not in the same pace.
31:49I don't want you to, like, wait around for when I'm ready.
31:53I just want us to, like, get to know each other, like...
31:55You want me to, like, go, date other people.
31:59If someone comes along and she's, like, ready right now to settle down and have kids and everything you want,
32:05I'm not going to say to you, no, be loyal to me when I'm not ready.
32:08That's extremely selfish.
32:09How about if you find somebody that doesn't want to settle down, they're going to have some fun.
32:13You open to that with somebody else.
32:15I am single, so I'm allowed to do whatever.
32:21I thought that we were exclusive with each other and that we're going to come into the street
32:25to try to get everything settled to move to a relationship.
32:30If that were the game to the beginning, that you are single and I am single, what the
32:35can I do all of this for you?
32:37I'm not going to spend my time, my money, my good intention with someone that's not really wanted.
32:43I like things clear, you know?
32:45I've been clear to you.
32:50No, you didn't.
32:51Yes, I did.
32:57I have never once told you I have healed and I'm ready for a relationship.
33:00I have never told you that.
33:02No, never told you that, never told you that.
33:06I'm really not understanding why he's acting like this is like brand new information.
33:10I know I've said this because I've made a point because it's so important to me
33:13and I've told him that.
33:14So for him to then say, oh, you've never told me that, it's like, it's frustrating.
33:20Don't act like I've said something I haven't said.
33:23Sophie, it's not the truth.
33:25I don't want to lie to you.
33:27You are lying to me right now, yes you are.
33:33And even last night, like, I wasn't acting like that's my man.
33:36Like, I wasn't, you know, being all over him and touching him.
33:39I'm literally making sure, like, I'm not giving him mixed signals at all.
33:45I'm not going to fight with you back and forth.
33:47If you tell me, you tell me what's my fault.
33:48I don't like when people say I'm a liar.
34:02If she needs time to heal her marriage, what's she doing to deal with me?
34:07You ready?
34:08Whatever.
34:10I'm not a healer.
34:13I'm not a doctor.
34:17I don't want Sophie to play games with me.
34:20I'm not interested in that .
34:23Miss?
34:24No, no.
34:25Hell no.
34:25Not with me.
34:30He's having issues right now.
34:31He's not able to get, like, up.
34:34Oh .
34:35It's like blowing up a balloon.
34:37It's like, it's getting there, getting there, and then it's like.
34:43There is a girl that I was talking to before I even went to the resort.
34:48Where does she live?
34:49She's in Brazil.
34:51Oh.
34:51Yeah.
34:52Here we go again.
34:53Diana and I met a year ago online.
34:56But are you still in contact with Diana?
35:00Do the right thing.
35:15Let's get wet and juicy.
35:18That doesn't sound right.
35:19I think it sounds delicious.
35:29How was your trip?
35:30I heard you got a boy now.
35:32Yeah.
35:33You don't miss being single?
35:35She'll be single in, like, a month.
35:37Oh, my God.
35:40As much as I love colds, it's a little, like, dragging down my vibe being a full-time caregiver.
35:47I feel like a caged animal.
35:49Like, I'm a cat stuck inside the house when really I want to be out roaming the streets.
35:54So, I'm so excited for a girl's day, for cocktails to have a good time, turn up.
36:01So, what do you like about him?
36:03I feel like we connect on a deep level.
36:05Like, I feel comfortable with him.
36:07I could be myself with him.
36:09But he's having issues right now.
36:12Like, he's not able to get, like, up.
36:16He's not able to get what?
36:18Up.
36:18Like, his thing doesn't work?
36:20Yeah.
36:21Oh.
36:22Oh, .
36:25Well, cuddle or kiss, like, he's done stuff to me, but I haven't done stuff to him.
36:30But it's like, okay, what am I supposed to do?
36:32Like, play with your the whole night?
36:34Like, I don't know what you want me to do.
36:35That's never fun.
36:37It's like blowing up a balloon.
36:39And it's like, it's getting there, getting there.
36:42And then it's like.
36:57How you doing, Mark?
36:59What's going on, dude?
37:00Been a while, man.
37:01Well, a lot has happened.
37:03I broke my leg in Mexico.
37:06Dude, we gotta get you, like, a bubble wrap outfit or something.
37:10Mark has been a really good friend for the past few years.
37:14He's been there with me through several relationships.
37:17And he's definitely aware of my dating mishaps.
37:20And he's not afraid to call out my bull .
37:22And right now, I really need an honest perspective.
37:25So when I was at the retreat, I met somebody.
37:28All right, let's hear it.
37:29Her name's Courtney.
37:30We connected on a lot of different levels.
37:32And we kind of got this, like, relationship going while we're there.
37:36And then she asked me if I wanted to come back with her and live with her in Florida.
37:41Wait, stop it.
37:42You're in her house right now?
37:43I'm in her house right now.
37:44You guys live together?
37:45We live together.
37:46Been here for over a month now.
37:47Holy crap.
37:48Congratulations, dude.
37:50Wow.
37:50Yeah.
37:51But Courtney lives with her parents.
37:53So I live with Courtney and her mom and dad.
37:57Here we go.
37:58Here we go.
38:00All right, how's that going?
38:01What's that look like?
38:02It's been pretty good.
38:03They're very patient.
38:04They're very sweet people.
38:05But the energy is weird.
38:08Courtney is very shy.
38:10And our intimacy isn't exactly where I want it to be.
38:13My past relationships have been very spicy.
38:18I've dated a few Brazilian women.
38:20And they like to .
38:25Could make me want sex all the time.
38:32On the other hand, Courtney's like watching Little House on the Prairie.
38:36It's quality.
38:37But after a while, it gets a little bored.
38:40I don't know.
38:41You have a girl that just gets so energetic that just on your .
38:45Like her life depends upon it.
38:48That type of energy, you know?
38:49And then you go to somebody that's just like, yeah, do whatever you want.
38:52You know what I mean?
38:54And it's just not the same.
38:56It's hard to go back to that.
39:02I don't know if he's not attracted to me.
39:05Or if it's just like he's not getting enough blood flow because of his broken leg.
39:09So I'm trying to be supportive.
39:10I'm trying to be his rock, I feel like.
39:12But then, yeah, I do have like doubts or fears.
39:15Like, what's he doing behind my back?
39:16What do you mean?
39:18I was helping him upload something on social media.
39:20And then it shows me all the women he's been messaging.
39:24And I'm like.
39:24All?
39:25I didn't even dig deep.
39:26I just went to like a few messages down.
39:28And he told a girl, hey, gorgeous.
39:30I'm doing all this stuff for you.
39:32And then you're like messaging other women.
39:35Like, are you kidding me?
39:37I know you want like to get married and stuff like that.
39:39But something's fishy about this.
39:42He definitely doesn't sound like Mr. Right.
39:45He's talking to other girls behind her back.
39:47And I've had that happen in relationships.
39:48And it never works out.
39:50He can't even get it up.
39:52He can't provide anything.
39:54Way too many red flags.
39:55He is the red flag.
39:58He needs to realize that he's actually lucky to have you.
40:01Because he is.
40:04Are you able to talk to her about like deep stuff?
40:07And the future and relationships?
40:10Yeah.
40:10But she knows my reputation.
40:12And she thinks like I'm just going to leave or cheat or whatever one day.
40:16So Courtney is worried that she'll be like another victim basically.
40:19Are you still living that way, dude?
40:21Be honest with me.
40:26So, well, there is a girl that I was talking to before I even went to the resort.
40:33Where does she live?
40:34She's in Brazil.
40:35Oh.
40:36Yeah.
40:37Here we go, kid.
40:38Yeah.
40:40Diana and I met a year ago online.
40:43Originally, I had plans to meet Diana in Brazil after the singles retreat ended.
40:49But meeting Courtney and my injury ultimately changed those plans.
40:54Are you still in contact with Diana?
40:57I still talk to Diana.
41:00It's been hard to let her go.
41:03Me and Courtney right now, I'm taking it one day at a time.
41:06But I don't want to hurt her.
41:07I care about her.
41:08There's definitely feelings there.
41:09But I don't, I really don't know what to do.
41:12I mean, this does sound a lot like things you've been through in the past, right?
41:18Yeah.
41:19And there's a situation where you could hurt her.
41:21And I know you don't want to do that.
41:23You want to get out of these cycles.
41:26Every relationship I've been in has ended because I've cheated or lied or a combination of both.
41:33I love Courtney.
41:35I never wanted to keep secrets from her.
41:37But if I tell her about Diana, she's never going to trust me again.
41:41And this might be an opportunity for you to sort of take that next step in your personal growth and
41:46have some hard conversations.
41:49Yeah.
41:50You know, do the right thing.
41:51I don't know, man.
41:55Next time on The Single Life.
41:58I am Vanya.
41:59I have been single for about a year.
42:01I'm starting to wonder if the guy for me has been right in front of me this whole entire time.
42:07His name is Tony.
42:09Is that your friend, Tony?
42:11Yeah.
42:11I kissed him.
42:13Oh, my God, girl.
42:14We haven't made it clear if we're exclusive, if we're dating.
42:18You need to have a conversation with him.
42:20If I have this conversation, there is no going back.
42:23Our friendship will be changed forever.
42:26How are your day with Pedro?
42:28We definitely did not mesh well at the end.
42:31It flipped so quick.
42:32And he's ignored me since the day.
42:34At this point, I am starting to panic a bit because what if Pedro just never takes me back?
42:39Maybe he'll give up.
42:42You know, I'm happy that you came here.
42:44But I just keep seeing that you have this online battle still with Jasmine back and forth.
42:52To me, it's a red flag because there's a thin line between love and hate.
42:58Does he have these unresolved feelings for Jasmine?
43:02Are you ready?
43:03Yeah.
43:04Oh, yes.
43:07Sexy.
43:09He looks sexy.
43:11How are you doing?
43:12I really want this relationship to work with Colt, but we have major issues.
43:17His leg is broken.
43:19Trust issues.
43:20His erectile dysfunction.
43:21We're not able to have sex.
43:23So, but now you're fully committed to Courtney at this point.
43:26A hundred percent.
43:27I'm sorry.
43:28I feel like you're using her.
43:29Using her?
43:30Yes.
43:31Do you have, like, a gut feeling?
43:32Because, like, that's usually what we go by.
43:35I don't know.
