00:21What brings you into love is mine, honey, I'm here to find my husband
00:33Welcome to love is blind UK here. You will choose someone to marry. I love you without ever
00:41Seeing them. Will you marry me?

00:44Unexplainable. I haven't been feeling you like literally behind a wall
00:48You will get engaged only after that will you meet that person for the very first time?
00:54I'm worrying whether she's gonna find me attractive or not. Everyone has their flaws. Oh my god
00:59Are you gonna say I do to the person you got engaged to sight unseen or will you be walking away forever?
01:06I should never have come here. I'm dumb. I
01:10Know he's not here for genuine reasons
01:17Absolute mug, I'm an idiot. You're aware when she stayed at mine that she wanted to see with me

03:37On the inside because you ain't seeing nothing over the next 10 days

03:46If you fall in love and find somebody that you want to spend the rest of your life with you will get engaged
03:52Only after that will you meet your fiance for the very first time
03:57Then you'll move in together. You'll meet each other's friends family and after four little weeks
04:03You're gonna be at your very own wedding
04:05But you're gonna have to make the biggest decision of your life

08:01Guys just look at me and they just think long hair physique six-pack been really all they're thinking is sex
08:09Hello
08:11How you doing? I'm good. They judge a book by its cover and I'm tired of it
08:17That's why I'm here. This is weird. I've never been on a date like this before
08:22100% so what's your name? My name is Catherine. My name is Ollie. I like your voice. I'll give you that
08:29I quite like your voice as well. Thank you. You do like the kind of soft like
08:33Okay onto the fun stuff when you're letting loose having a good time, what's that look like brunching with the girls during like day drinks
08:39You know, I mean, mm-hmm. What do you like to do? He's a Saturday. I'm normally I normally have training in the morning
08:44I do boxing. I see kickboxing. Oh, really? Yeah, we'll train together sometime. Is that a promise a hundred percent?
08:51Anyways
08:54When you think about marriage, how do you see the partnership being how do you see like sharing responsibilities?
08:59I want someone who like I can do fun stuff with but just because you're married doesn't mean you need to sit at home
09:04Okay, a hundred percent. I just want to that vibe there. Yeah, and I love a good
09:10I mean, I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie
09:14I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie
09:19Yeah, and I love a good time. I think we'd be a good time
09:24Only his voice
09:27It's just during the end. I feel really weird right now. I feel like I've won
09:34I think I could shed a tear if I wanted to I've been told that I tend to date with my eyes
09:39So this is allow me to flip dating on his head and because I'm able to see them
09:43All my other senses will be kind of heightened to who they are as a person
09:46I'm not gonna be distracted by what they look like
09:51I'm at the age where I know myself better than I've ever known myself
09:53I think I'm in the best place I've ever been so I think a long-term partner would be the one thing kind of
09:58Completing the picture so to speak
10:01Do I have a celebrity look alike? Yes, I do
10:03I don't think I look like him that much but I've had people coming up to me and saying I like Craig David
10:09It's a nice breaker if nothing else
10:12Hey
10:14Hello. Hello. Hello. Let me get to the sofa in these hills
10:19Wait, stop pause. What's your name? Cuz I need to write that down. Olly. What's yours? My name's Demi
10:24You sound like you're from my neck of the woods. Okay, you London you're a London boy
10:28So what's the typical weekend look like if you do you step out with friends see family or do you tend to like be a
10:33Bit of a homebody. Um, so on the weekend, I play football on a Sunday
10:37I played for quite a few teams, you know, okay
10:40Saturdays like I do go out but I'm all about eating and having a drink and just good music. Okay, I rate that
10:47I rate that. Yeah, that's my bad. What about you?
10:49Similar to that. So Saturday, I normally have training during like the morning. I do boxing and then I box too
10:55Mads, you know, you can imagine I'm like a girl that plays football and boxes
10:59So I've had a lot of guy friends that our friends owned myself before
11:03Before anything cuz I'm vibes. I
11:06I just feel like a lot of day in now is just short term. So that's why love is blind. Come hook me up
11:17I do think physical attraction is important. I want to be able to look at my man and be like, hmm
11:23hmm
11:24but
11:26It's not everything even with myself like sometimes I'm two stone heavier one month and then like four months later
11:32I'm two stone lighter and that
11:35I'm still me. I
11:37Want love every little girl wants that fairytale ending and I could potentially have that
11:43So like what would be your first night day? I feel like you'd be a solid activity day person. They're giving
11:49I would get competitive and it's like, ah, that's fine. I still want to be in love but like also a bailer
11:55I feel so bad when I beat you at whatever sport we're doing. No, I'm good at you know, I'm good at basketball
12:01You know the arcade I promise you there's no way
12:04Huh, there's no one better than me possible arcades. No one
12:10I'm so confused right now because there is I'm right here. You know, you know, I
12:16Really like Olly I feel comfortable and I feel like he's a bit of a cheeky chap
12:21I wanted to tell him about things that are sensitive to me
12:24I also didn't want to like throw it on too thick with him. So I was just probing a little bit
12:29So do you want a family? Yeah, I do want kids but at the same time I don't hang
12:34All of my chance of happiness on that because I understand that obviously some people literally can't have kids
12:38Some people don't want to have kids. Wow. I actually love that. You just said that though
12:43You have to be mindful with that conversation, right? 100%
12:47Damn, yeah, I'm so glad we spoke today, you know
12:49because I do genuinely believe
12:51They're like a solid foundation for a relationship and in this case a marriage is a friendship and I already feel like I've got that
12:57with you
12:59She's cool. I like her
13:08How did you find it? Oh, I absolutely love it. I can just feel the energy. I like my man is out there. Yeah
13:18I feel like happens give him more like sexual vibes rather than
13:21Connection vibes. I make sense. She's pulling up what every man wants to get I'm saying, but that's my vibe
13:26I like a girl like that. Yeah, of course, but in actual fact someone like Demi was probably more
13:30I'll break on it. They're more on a level. She was a really cool girl. Yeah, she was she was they're all they're all lovely
13:35They're all lovely
13:42I'm really getting on with Oli. I'm in here for myself and I want to come out with a husband
13:47As far as I'm aware no one likes Oli, but if they did I'm not told me that's shit
14:03I'm so ready to meet my soulmate. I'm just really hope he's here. I
14:07Think it's really great to build a life together on the surface. I'm like missing out on a lot of things
14:13I think it's really great to build a life together on the surface. I'm like miss independent
14:17I don't need a man but at the same time, you know, I am a bit of a hopeless romantic
14:25Over the last year there's been situations in my life. My granny who I was very very close to my GG and
14:31Passed away. Oh gosh
14:34You know, she was the kind of heart of our family and him
14:37after her funeral coming home to an empty house on my own and it was just
14:41It's moments like that where would just be nice to have someone to be there and hug you and be like it's gonna be okay
14:47Sorry, I just get really upset anytime. I talk about GG
14:57Hello, oh my goodness, what's your name? Sabrina Sabrina? What a great name mine Steven and where you from Steven?
15:05I'm from Birmingham, but I've lived in London for 14 years. Okay
15:09I'm starting to get a little bit of your accent now. I'm from Belfast. Okay, is that where you live?
15:14I live in Belfast you live there now. Yeah
15:16Yeah, what about location wise and would you relocate or you see you'd want your future husband to move to Belfast?
15:22Oh, no, I'd relocate you would relocate. Yeah, there's a lot more opportunities in London
15:28What you do and my work in marketing what about you so I own a CrossFit gym you're a CrossFitter
15:35No, don't start judging me
15:37You're part of the cult I had to tell you the truth though, didn't I I
15:42Would sound pretty much from a man's world because I'm one of four brothers
15:46I went to an all-boys school
15:48How I even know how to speak to females and how I'm in touch with my emotions is beyond me
15:52And my parents were very often on and that was a big part of my childhood
15:56I split up when I was 16 during my GCSEs at the time
15:59It was the worst out of my life and as a result of that, I really know what I want
16:03I'm here to find my partner in crime and I just want to be in love for the rest of my life with that one
16:09person
16:11So what makes you you I'm very adventurous
16:14Happy, I'm very spontaneous
16:17Like it my favorite word, but I'm very considerate
16:22I'm laughing. Have you got my script over there? Yeah
16:26Do you meditate? Yes, I do nice
16:29I do my meditation into three parts. So pure breathing finding the rhythm checking with the body then I have my cold shower
16:35Cold shower. You've lost me. Absolutely not
16:39Just to wake me up and then I do gratitude journals
16:43Yeah, this is so weird
16:45You've just taken my daily routine
16:48Except my shower is definitely at about 40 degrees apart from the show. It's okay to be different though
16:53So I've never actually met someone who has similar
16:57Mindset about those sort of things. I
17:01Went on a year-long journey of kind of just working on myself
17:03Yeah, so now I do a lot of gratitude journaling and practice gratitude as much as I can
17:08Love that love that. I think it's really important to get to the point where you're so happy in yourself
17:12It's like it's not anyone else's job to make you happy. Yeah, and I'm all about adding value to each other's life
17:17Oh my god, same same your language is so similar to mine. I'm smiling if you can't tell me my voice
17:24Okay
17:25My date with Sabrina has been incredible
17:29strong day
17:30Absolute homerun. It's good. Literally. We have the same routine in a day. Like it was weird meditation
17:42That one I made a big connection with Sabrina
17:45No, I don't want to tell you guys cuz I'm happy. Do you know what I mean?
17:48Sabrina love everything about it was awesome, but I didn't really have a sparkler. Oh I did did you?

19:20It's always good to have a little mirror to see you know, and the light is good as well in this I
19:25Never liked what I saw in the mirror and I have done things to improve my appearance. I did have a nose job
19:31I've always caught, you know, I've always been conscious of certain things
19:34Since I found out about this experiment I came off the dating apps. I trained very hard in the gym
19:40Great new skincare routine the whole lot because I'm hoping that the next wedding I attend will probably be my own

19:55I attend at the moment where it's plus one on the invitations. I have no plus one. It does hurt and
20:00You know, I do go to bed some nights and think why?
20:05So tell me more about you I'd like you know spending quality time with my family my sister's got a little kid
20:10So just being the best uncle
20:12That's why I know I'm just I just want kids yeah, cuz it's prepping your fatherhood, isn't it is
20:16Oh, I'm gonna be a great father. I love looking after people
20:20I care for people as a living and I can't wait to be a mom. I
20:25want someone to be my best friend and someone that I can feel comfortable enough to be silly with and be a big kid and
20:31Sing in the shower and dance naked. I know right and
20:35Because that's who I am. I'm Peter Pan. I'm just a big kid
20:39Do you like to stroke your boyfriends?
20:41a
20:42Stroke, you know, like those little tickle strokes in bed. I'm a very affectionate person. I love cuddles. I love kissing
20:48I've been told I'm quite a good kisser. Oh, yeah good. I
20:53Know I've got so much to give but I just want someone to give me the chance. Yeah
20:57Why do you think girls aren't giving you the chance?
20:59I think they might look at my profile like my Instagram or when they see me in a bar
21:03They might just think he's looking for a one-night stand
21:06Right, do you do you feel like you give fuckboy energy? No, so why would they think that I just think like just appearance
21:13I don't go around like chatting to a girl like I don't I don't know. Okay
21:16I'm just a big kid who died just wants to have fun and just love someone like this
21:20Is that too much to ask for like, you know, I
21:24Want you to remember me? Okay, Sam from London
21:28I
21:32Find emotional guy and I do wear my heart on my sleeve
21:39I'd like some of your voice. Oh, I like the sound of your
21:43My name is Nicole. What's your call? My name's Sam. It's basically people think oh no, come on Sam
21:48You can get any girl you want. Yeah, I wish it was that easy, you know, come on. That's why I'm single
21:54You trained you go to the gym I do work out. Okay. Well we can train. Oh, do you try I do train?
22:01Okay, I've trained because it's just made me feel amazing
22:05Like what do you ever yoga with someone? I do Vikram. I've done Vikram and I do some yoga
22:10I'm just the most unflexible person you are ever me. Oh, don't worry. I'll teach you baby
22:15Yeah, I need to loosen up a little bit actually. Okay. Okay. I'm quite a good smooth talker. So that's all right. Okay
22:22Good so are you big on family? I actually think that you can choose your family, you know, you could also choose your husband, too
22:32Yeah, and if you saw me then I think
22:36You might be impressed. Okay. All right. So say you're 90 and you're looking back at your life
22:42What does that life look like for you?
22:44I think if I could put it into a book it would be a book that would be one of the best books that someone
22:49Could ever read
22:50Okay, because the chapters of that book
22:53Wouldn't tell a love story of romance. That would be so beautiful
22:59It would make you cry. Ah
23:02There we go. You're very sweet. Aren't you you seem like you sound like a very but the sweet guy never wins
23:08I'm just hoping someone understands me
23:11You're making me a bit scared if I'm honest
23:14Feel like you're saying a lot of the right things and it's making me kind of a bit afraid, you know
23:22I've been married before and it didn't work out but
23:27Like I never lost hope when it came to finding someone I want to spend my life with
23:33So I think for me I'm ready, but it's scary to do that. I remember the name Sam
23:39Okay
23:40From London. Okay. I know what I'm looking for now more than I've ever known
23:46I'm here because I've been doing it the traditional way
23:53And I want to explore an alternative way to meet potentially the love of my life
23:59I think I'm finally ready to give love a second chance. My name is Nicole. What's yours?
24:06My name is Benaiah Benaiah. Oh very interesting name. Are you Hawaiian? No, but I can be
24:15So
24:16Tell me about yourself born and raised just outside Preston, but my family live in Germany
24:22Okay, are you planning to stay in Preston?
24:28Ten years, so I've lived and traveled abroad and even now I'm technically homeless
24:34What?
24:35That's kind of you know, scary, isn't it? I'm not living on the street
24:41So I'm freelance self-employed and I just house it as and where the work is that's amazing
24:46Like I think that is like incredibly brave way to live. I mean, I've hitchhiked from Preston to Budapest Wow
24:54You're really cool
24:56Something I sometimes want to do just up and just leave and just like be free and just like go somewhere, you know
25:03Yeah, it's like I
25:05Value conscious living. Yes, and I do work a corporate job
25:09Yeah
25:10for me this kind of thing is like a means to an end to like a life of freedom and a life of
25:16Off-grid like awkward living is like what I really
25:20Yeah, and I'm someone who's quite conscious of like mind body and spirit
25:27I
25:32Think about a hell of a lot
25:37What do you do for fun outside of work, honestly, I go hiking I do a lot of outdoor yoga in the garden sometimes naked
25:45But we weren't discussed
25:47I want to see your face
25:51Naya is a very inspirational character. We have a lot in common and it's just honestly a breath of fresh air
25:59He's a great guy
26:01That was good, that was very good. I really like him
26:05And
26:14Does anyone else have this thing where they don't want certain things in their mouth like at the start of the day
26:29Monday
26:35Friday
26:47Dating so far has been excellent
26:51First thing I thought about when I woke up this morning was Sabrina the last time I had a date with her I left there
26:56Feeling quite smitten a lot man. We think the same her mindset's the same. She's very much like me in her approach to life
27:03Hello hi Steven, how are you? I'm fantastic
27:07Me too. I was looking forward to seeing you Sam. I think yesterday surprised me a little bit just at how much we connected
27:14Yeah, when I left the room with you got a bit emotional
27:18That's really sweet. I'm a happy bunny me too
27:22It'd be great to understand like what is it that you're actually looking for because we haven't really touched on that
27:28Basically someone to grow with and have new
27:31Adventures and experiences with but also at the same time
27:36Still go out and do our own things. Love that. Why about you?
27:40I love someone who's confident in themselves doesn't necessarily need to be the same as everyone else to fit in
27:46I think that's so sexy if you own your vibe. Yeah in terms of confidence. I definitely wear things that get reactions
27:53That's good to know
27:55Like my swimwear style, oh my god, what are you Eric? Oh, I've got a pop out the budgie smugglers. Oh god
28:02speedos
28:05Love that listen, I've got great legs and I want an even time. Okay, just walk 10 steps behind me at all
28:15So, what are you wearing today what's your vibe I've got a t-shirt on that says 1% better every day. Oh, I love that
28:23What are you wearing just a little black tea nice do you wear jewelry?
28:27Yes
28:28I have a little bracelet that says GG on it for my for my granny who I was very very close to and then I have
28:34A couple of necklaces on and then I have GG's ring on nice
28:39What about you? I've got my granddad's ring on my pinky finger
28:44So when he passed away, I think I was about eight years of age
28:47My god stop as I've got older it's literally been on every single finger even my phones
28:56That literally makes my heart swell
28:59That's so lovely I love that I love that you've worn that on every finger we already know with the same people I
29:07Definitely feel a very strong connection with you good good
29:13What about children, okay, shall we get into it? Yeah
29:18I
29:19Feel like when I I do meet someone as more important to me that I have a really good foundation with husband and wife
29:26And I think that's important if I didn't have children. I think I'd be okay
29:33Right, okay
29:38What about you
29:42Yeah, I
29:45Have always thought that I would have my own child a little mini me that is part of my DNA
30:00I don't feel the urge that I need to have kids or else
30:03I'm not going to to feel happy and in myself and in my life
30:06But I feel very deflated on how that conversation had ended. I can really feel that there is a connection there with Steven
30:13So I'm hoping that I get a chance to talk about that a little bit more
30:25See the bit my best boys time dates
30:30Yes, sir, you're telling me what I'm general my boy Freddy scanner
30:38So I've been single for three years now my last relationship
30:42Ended badly
30:45I've found that he was expecting a baby with another girl while he was texting me saying we're gonna do this
30:51We're gonna do that. So yeah complete betrayal
30:55Manipulation just lies
31:00Hello, who is it?
31:02Jasmine, it's time. Oh, hi Sam. Hey, how's it going? So I think my perspectives changed. I'm exhausted
31:09I want someone to stabilize me emotionally, you know, I'm here to find my soulmate. I really wanted to see you again
31:16Oh, that's good. How about you?
31:18You know what? I did have like a few doubts about some of the comments that you made
31:24Let's go on go on, you know, like the Instagram thing. You're like, oh people may perceive me, you know as something different
31:31Okay, let's say I've done six months training right and I've got my body in like a good condition
31:35I was like, why not? I'm gonna put a picture of me with my top off like
31:39I've only ever done that once. Okay, but what I meant probably more was is like if I'm standing at a bar
31:44Mm-hmm, I might get some attention
31:46But you wouldn't realize that what amazing person I am potentially so I know I've got a lot to offer
31:51Yes, I think beauty is just skin deep. So I think what's in this
31:56100% like I believe what's inside is more important. Okay, that's good to know
32:01Jasmine is incredible since day one. I have those butterflies in my stomach
32:05Just everything about her kind of matches what I'm kind of looking for
32:13Sorry, you just threw me a little bit yeah, why don't know you're like the only person who's kind of like
32:19Knows I don't know just gave me a bit of a butterfly
32:23Yeah
32:25Yeah, good. I'm being all soppy
32:28That's cute. I want a man that it makes me feel safe because I've got a lot of love to give
32:35I feel like I have a very maternal side to me
32:37So I would love to settle down have a family of my own and just in reality just to be chosen
32:44Hello
32:45This is Bobby. Oh, hi Bobby. Is this Jasmine? I want a certified lover boy. That's why I want
32:52Where are you from Stoke-on-Trent? Where are you from? I'm actually from North London. Okay, but I've moved quite a lot
32:58I'm a bit of a nomad. I love that. I'm a bit of a nomad
33:01I was living in Mexico last year for like five months. Are you a tequila drinker? Of course. Oh my god
33:06Not to in Mexico. We need a few cocktails in here. Thank you. The juices flowing you could say
33:13But yeah, so tell me a bit about you like, you know, what do you do? I'm a mental health nurse. Nice. How about you?
33:19I'm a luxury shopping guide on board cruise ships. Does that mean you travel quite a lot?
33:23Yeah, but obviously I don't want to work on cruise ships forever. I'm ready to move away from that lifestyle. Yeah, okay, that's good
33:29That's good. So what do you think the most important thing is to you in a relationship for me?
33:34It's someone that I can really vibe with and connect with on all levels and someone that that is not just a partner
33:39Yeah, but it's also a friend, you know, I'm very caring very empathetic
33:44I'm close to my family mainly like my mom, you know, I come from a single parent background some single mother raised by my mom
33:50Yeah, I'm a real family person. I love family. I'm so close to my mom
33:54We're like best friends because I do want to have a family of my own sometime
33:59Soon. Hopefully. Mm-hmm. I ideally would want to you know, raise children in a household where our
34:06Foundation is on a hundred. Yeah for sure because at the end of the day, they're gonna learn our dynamics my mine and yours
34:13You mean?
34:16Being in the room with Jasmine is just a really trusting environment
34:20She's super caring feel like I can be myself and she does share the same
34:25Qualities in terms of what I'm looking for in a potential wife. You should do it again sometime. Yeah, definitely
34:43Something's telling me it's just not because you need to be with the right person
34:56I
34:58Forming better connections and confidence
35:03Cheers cheers to what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and let's fall in love and get married
35:16Hey everybody, I've been single since 2012 my only serious relationship ended then
35:22That hit me quite hard it's been hard to kind of open up properly since then
35:27Yeah, I do believe in love. Yeah, I just haven't had much look
35:32Hello hi
35:35It's Nicole I had a very good first date with Nicole, how you doing? I'm good. Thank you
35:41Great energy the same sense of humor, which is really important to me. You know what I was thinking about you yesterday
35:48Likewise, really? Yeah
35:51Trying not to get too ahead of myself, but feeling excited for the future my hold
35:56You mentioned like the mind-body spirit. I was gonna ask you more about that today like what your
36:02Interpretation of that is if you look after your mental capacity
36:05Then it will have impact your emotional capacity, which will then in turn affect your physical. Yeah, I love that
36:11like I've just come to the realization that
36:14Like there's so much greater than us that like down. We are just lucky to be here. Do you know what I mean?
36:19Oh, yeah, the chances of our existence. Yeah
36:23Let's just have fun on the ride. You know, that's that's that's my approach. Yeah, I think we're quite aligned on a few values
36:29Which is nice. Yeah
36:31So like, you know when you said you travel and you know, you live sort of nomadic lifestyle
36:36Yeah, are you going to be settled with your partner somewhere or I'll just be off and they'll be at home
36:42I
36:46I'd like a base. Mm-hmm, you know, but with the traveling it's an element of escapism
36:52Yeah, I had a difficult childhood so that took its toll I think in terms of self-confidence
37:01Self-worth. Yeah, but
37:04Now I'm at a very good stage. I feel at peace with everything
37:09Hmm it's taken a long time to get there, but it's a journey. I'm glad I've gone through I appreciate you telling me I
37:16Know who's on very deep there
37:22The kind of life I envisioned with Vinaya is a free
37:27Liberating life. I admired the way he carries himself in conversation the way he thinks you've got a lot of
37:35Yeah, good character, I mean likewise with you I love the energy that's why I obviously like to see you again, yeah
37:42I catch it a bit. Okay
37:45If walking the pods and I find out it's Nicole and I hear a voice I do get excited and
37:54Yeah, I'm looking forward to hopefully cementing a connection and taking it further from there I
38:05Mean
38:10Have you got a favorite yet?
38:12I've met a guy who is literally the lifestyle that I want
38:16But it's really important for him to have his own kids
38:19it's just so deflating when you're like having this incredible time talking about how your future could be like how yous are both so aligned and
38:27Then a whole conversation just flipped
38:35Like a winter
38:38Sabrina makes me smile. She stimulates my mind so much and I've always said if you capture my mind, you've got me
38:44But she's just definitely given me a conundrum
38:51Hello beautiful, how are you? I'm good. How are you? Oh
38:55Scrambled. Yeah
38:57Couldn't sleep last night. He was on my mind for sure
39:02After I'd I woke up this morning apprehensive scared maybe
39:09Think it's basically because it's something that we need to talk about. Yeah, it's very much the elephant in the room, isn't it?
39:15Yeah, it is. Yeah
39:17right, so honest truth, I
39:20Know that I want to be a dad
39:23Yeah, because I think I'll be a good dad. Yeah, I think so
39:27Personally for me, I don't think I have to have children
39:32For me, it's really important to build a life as husband and wife
39:36First and I fully respect that I'm 35. So that would be a case of 30 or 39
39:40I might not even be able to conceive naturally anyway
39:46I'm very open to surrogacy. So it would be our biological child or adoption
39:56I'm here for that
40:00That makes me feel really good
40:06Why is that been bothering me so so much
40:09Life brings difficult scenarios and conversations. So important to have them. Of course, it's how you
40:17Tackles these hurdles in life that make you stronger. I suppose. Yeah
40:22Can ask you about your childhood maybe and
40:25So my parents got divorced when I was like 13 and
40:29my dad
40:32He wasn't around a lot and it was always like me being like when are we meeting up?
40:35What are we doing?
40:36And then it got to the point where I was like, I'm not gonna contact him anymore
40:39And let's just see how long it takes and he never contacted me again
40:44And then when I was 28 and my mom we went on she's like look I have to have a difficult conversation with you
40:50It's not actually your father your father is from Italy when you were younger
40:55He wanted to move back to Italy and I wanted to stay in Ireland. It was obviously a lot for me to
41:00To process I was named after a person. I'd never known and named after a person who
41:05Wasn't actually my father and who didn't want to know
41:08Sorry that you had to go through that and you haven't had the right man there for you
41:13I think that's why sometimes I can be quite guarded with men and I do
41:17Sometimes find it really difficult to let my guard down. Oh, I don't get choked up
41:23You okay?
41:25Yeah, take a second if you need to I
41:30Don't think at any point I felt like you you've been guarded kind of hurting me to know that you've been through that. Oh
41:37No, we're good. We're good
41:40Lisa there's something you need to know about me. Okay. I was seeing somebody
41:46Long-term girlfriend who at one point I thought probably was my person that I was gonna get married to okay
41:55She was ill for quite a few months for me just sporadically and we didn't know why
42:03Eventually she had a consultation and
42:06The consultant came in
42:10And he then proceeded to say that the found a tumor
42:15Oh my god
42:17For
42:19The next few months I watched
42:23Someone who I loved dearly
42:30Basically fight for her life
42:34I can't even comprehend how difficult that that must have been
42:40After
42:43About eight months
42:45she
42:47Basically said just sat beside me and just said I can't do us anymore just need to focus on me
42:56It was tough
43:02Can I ask is she okay, I think so
43:06At the time I just cared about her and if that was the deal that she'd survive, but we wouldn't
43:13Then that was fine by me
43:16Are you okay? Yeah. Oh, I wish I could give you a hug. It's something that was difficult, but it's defined
43:25Who I am in my approach today in life for sure. You're stronger probably for it
43:30I gave a very unique outlook in life, which I really respect and appreciate
43:36Honestly, I feel closer to you today
43:38That's a good sign that you can
43:40Be vulnerable with someone. Yeah for sure
43:52I think this is where this really challenges your vulnerability and your insecurities. I came in here
43:57Wholeheartedly hoping that I would meet someone but like I I didn't expect this
44:02Feel like our hearts and our minds are so aligned and I I can just see us having this incredible life together
44:11No
44:20That's a good smile. Yes
44:22Relief relief relief relief dealt with me got through it. We're strong. Yeah. Yeah, actually went really vulnerable
44:30Oh, yeah, it was only natural that I then did because the trust was there. Yeah
44:35connection for real
44:36Thanks for real
44:40Stephen I feel like I could say anything and he'd back me and I'm like would help me be the best possible version of
44:45Myself. Yeah, my logical brain is still a bit like Sabrina. What are you doing?
44:49So like I don't think I would have ever given him a chance in the real world. Yeah, that's my biggest concern
45:10I have gone with Ollie from day one. Hello
45:15Yeah, but it's hard with Freddie in the back of my head
45:20Ready, I do. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, not bad. We are bonding. He's he's funny
45:27I like him. What's your last name Powell? Are you assessing my vote?
45:31I
45:35Think that works my middle name's Mary is it? Yeah, it's named after my grant. My Nana was called Mary
45:44So I'm gonna cry. I'm not crazy
45:47What's your granddad called?
45:48bill
45:50No. Yeah, don't believe you. I swear
45:55I've got goosebumps. So do you know what my granddad was called bill?
46:02Ah
46:04What the hell are you joking that's mad, it's not mad. Yeah, I'm really sure I'm proper confused
46:14That's weird
46:17With Freddie, it's just mind-blowing. I feel a sense of home. I want to cuddle
46:23I'll give you a cuddle, but
46:25Unfortunately, there's a wall in the way
46:26We have things in common is in like family like we can relate on a deep level and we understand
46:33But Ollie's got my head confused
46:37Behind closed doors. I'm very affectionate
46:40I'm very hands-on like I won't really walk past you without grabbing your waist or like putting you in for a cuddle put you in
46:44for a kiss
46:46That's how I am
46:48Something's that this is not a boy like this is a man and I can't see him
46:55But he's sexy
46:58I'm in my comfy zone today. I think tomorrow's I'm gonna get like fully comfy. I'm gonna like should we go PJs?
47:03I don't wear PJs
47:06Well, that's the one question
47:09That you boxers yeah, sometimes less, okay. What do you wear?
47:16I wear like sports bra and like shorts. Okay, that kind of like the sexy loungewear almost
47:25Okay
47:27I'm in a sticky predicament between Demi and Kat. They're both such amazing people. I feel like Katherine's presenting a very sexual
47:35Seductress image, but I'm keen not to base it solely on that because I've realized that that doesn't always lead me to the right girl
47:42Hello, I'm so happy. It is you
47:45Demi's still playing it a little bit more cool, but like straight away. There was a vibe
47:49There was an energy there. So they're both causing problems in my in my mind
47:54So, oh, I've got a question for you. Go on then. All right, like I'm feeling really like rubbish
47:59I'm being a bit snappy. How would you handle that? I approach go stay one of my friends for the weekend
48:09I'm playing I'm playing I'll do whatever I need to do to bring you out
48:13Because right now this ain't a good start some people need space you don't strike me as someone that needs space you strike me as
48:18someone that needs
48:19cuddles and forehead kisses
48:22Thanks, I'm weird why because
48:26Before I would say like I need space, but I'm I've done I need reassurance you can sometimes have space
48:33While someone is still really close that makes sense. We don't have to talk but you can hold me 100%
48:42That's good, I like that response. Yeah
48:45Ollie it's just amazing. I honestly feel he's the most open-minded
48:50pure soul that I've met
48:54The way he views life is very similar to me. I really feel like he's the one
49:01What I'm worried about at this stage is like I know where my heart is
49:08So I don't want to
49:10Be too open or vulnerable where my heart is
49:15So where's your heart?
49:23Like here, okay right now, I'm not a hundred percent sure I
49:33Mean I
49:35Know I won by my 100% sure who that is and I'm being real with you when I say that and that's fine
49:40And you're putting the same boat
49:45You know, but with you I felt we've got a combination of all of the things that I'm looking for
49:52But if I'm being honest, I'm still kind of
49:55Given the other other girl a chance
49:59Yeah
50:02Yeah
50:04Yeah
50:09It's tough
50:10I'm feeling the element of guilt in
50:12Talking to cat where I'm talking to her and then talking to them either I'm talking to her because I don't want to be
50:16Leading either one of them on and so it's about trying to manage that in the best way I can
50:21And I don't know that I can because I've never done this before but we're trying we're trying
50:25Do you have a connection Bolly we we have a good day like we're cool
50:29But I know that you're very much involved and he's probably very much involved with you
50:33So, you know, he's told me that you know, he goes on good dates and stuff
50:37But I would just hate for him to be lying to me
50:39If it's a deep connection and just tell me yeah, I will by any time. I
50:45Really like Olly
50:47Catherine really likes Olly. She's my friend. I really like her. She's my friend. She's my best friend
50:52Catherine really likes Olly. She's my friend. I really like her, but I want only so I
51:02Find it very hard to put myself first because I'm people you and it sucks
51:07I'm not here to hurt my friends
51:09But I'm also not here to sacrifice my connection because my friend likes him
51:15It's time for me to put myself first. Otherwise, I will end up at home on my own with 10 cats
51:22And I don't even like hats
51:25It's hard obviously I want you to explore it with Olly I know you do
51:31It sucks. I
51:32Think Demi has a strong connection with Olly. I really do. Do I see them on the outside world together? No, I
51:39Don't want to get in my mouth gets me in trouble
51:42It's
51:50An amazing experience
51:53The emotions the intensity how lucky I am to have my connection with Sabrina purely focusing
52:01A voice a beautiful voice. It's winning me over and you can't explain it. I'm not
52:07Falling in love with someone that I haven't seen. He's the
52:10Bizarrest concept ever, but the feelings are more real than they've ever been before
52:21I'm thinking about Sabrina all the time. I'm looking at ways to make her happy the ways I want to surprise her
52:28I wouldn't want another partner in crime if I'm being honest with you
52:34Hello hello beautiful, how are you?
52:40Love hearing your voice. Your voice is calming me. Yeah see him by your side. Can you see a little white thing?
52:50You read out what it says to me
52:54It says you stole my mind and now my heart too
53:01So that's actually a start of the poem that I wrote for you, oh my goodness
53:10I
53:14Might be a couple of pauses to bear with me
53:21You stole my mind and my heart too
53:26Can I say something crazy I love you
53:37Can I take your hand
53:40As I take a knee
53:46And ask you something crazy
53:52Will you marry me
54:04Steven
54:10Oh my gosh, what even start you are genuinely incredible
54:17You're just amazing
54:20This is just been an incredible journey, and I'm so grateful that I have gotten to do this with you and
54:28But
54:40Oh
55:10Oh
55:40You
56:10You
