05x10 - Big, Big Love

[bunniefuu]

Welcome to Love Is Blind.

[all cheering]

[Nick] Here you will choose someone
to marry without ever seeing them.

It is baffling
to have the feelings I have for you

and genuinely care about you.

[laughs] I'm so excited.

[Nick] If you fall in love with someone
and wanna spend your life with them,

you'll get engaged.

-You gonna be my Puerto Rican wife?
-Yes, I will be your Puerto Rican wife!

-[both laughing]
-[upbeat music playing]

[Vanessa] And if they accept,
you'll finally see your fiancée

for the very first time.

-[Stacy] Hi!
-[Izzy exclaims]

-[Milton] Hey.
-[Lydia] Oh, my God!

You're really pretty.

♪ Everything is all right... ♪

[Nick] Up until now,

your attraction's been based entirely
in an emotional connection.

I love you.

[Vanessa] Hopefully, you turn that
emotional connection into a physical one.

[Milton] There was a little bit
of sexual tension in the pods,

but then when you can actually see them
and look at one another, and like,

"Okay, we're gonna go there."

[Vanessa] Will they let the pressures
of the physical world get in the way?

[Taylor] You're not
the person I fell in love with.

I'm done.

["Make This End" by Henry O'Marks
& David Connolly playing]

So, you have no dishes?

[Izzy] No.

You make me feel
like I'm not enough for you.

[Rita] Yeah, I was just curious
what someone 30

would be interested in a 24-year-old.

It's phony.

This is such a major step,

you figure you wanna make sure
this is the one.

You took a picture of my house
and you sent it to me!

-You said, "I see you."
-I ain't gonna deal with this sh*t.

This is the last time
you will see my f*cking face!

[Nick] Will you say "I do" to the person
you fall in love with sight unseen?

I'm madly in love with you.

Look at my little hand. You wanna hold it?

I know that you love me, and I love you.



[Nick] Or will you walk
away from them forever?

In the pods, talking about finances,
"Anything I need to know?"

You're like, "Absolutely not."

That wasn't totally truthful.

It's not something
I was trying to lie about.

You know me better than anyone.

I don't wanna lose you or us.

[Stacy] I never thought
I'd fall in love with someone that fast.

It wasn't necessarily
about never seeing them.

I'm like, looks don't really
matter to me, but...

[exhales]... I guess how fast
I fell in love with him

was the most shocking part.

In a week. Maybe less.

♪ Even if I have to shout I love you... ♪

Oh...

That is shocking.

But I did.

[Stacy] You make me feel
like my lungs and my heart

are fighting against each other.

Like my breath can't keep up
with my heart rate anytime I'm around you

or just thinking about you.

That's how I feel right now.

I feel like this is home,
and I feel like this is where I belong.

Will you marry me?

-Yes!
-f*ck yeah, baby! [laughs]

-You have really pretty lips.
-[laughing]

[Izzy] This is what I've been waiting for.

[both laughing]

The most romantic thing
anyone's ever gotten me!

[Izzy] I love you.

I know he's the one,

because, for me, I'm like, if that person
comes along that changes my life,

and I can't live,
breathe, eat, sleep without them,

I will do anything for them.

[voice breaks] And I see that
with him every day.

I love Izzy. He's amazing.

He's kind, and thoughtful,
and giving, and strong.

He's vulnerable.

He is... His name's Izzy. Ismael.

-He's so exotic. He's so hot.
-[man] Yes?

He's a big old chunk of meat.

And how did you...

[laughing] Don't ask me how I met him.
Don't you dare ask me how I met him!

[Chelsea] Little Stacy Loo!

I hear Chelsea!

-[Chelsea] Hello, Sister Soo!
-[Stacy] Hi!

[Chelsea] Where's your other sisters?

-[Stacy] Part one of wedding day!
-[all cheering]

[Sloan] It's your wedding day!

Pop the champagne,
she's changing her last name.

-Boom, boom.
-[man laughing]

[Sloan] Got your robe ready
whenever you're ready.

-[Stacy] Okay, can I throw that on?
-[man] Yes, of course.

[Stacy] Okay.

I just don't wanna sit in all black.
I feel like it's bad luck.

I didn't realize I was wearing all black.

[Sloan] Mom's dress is black too.

-She's not the one getting married.
-[Sloan] That's true.

[both laughing]

[Stacy] She wore it at your wedding,
look what happened!

-[Sloan] True, all success.
-[Stacy] She's good luck.

Success stories with that dress.
We're just gonna keep it going.

Boop-boop.

-["Lifting Me Up" playing]
-♪ Lifting me up ♪

♪ Lifting me up ♪

♪ Lifting me up ♪

Thank you.

[Izzy] They say when you fall in love,

it'll happen, like,
when you least expect it.

Through the other side of the wall,

and boom, just hit like a train.

She knew everything about me.

She challenges me to be better.

I mean, she's fun. She's loud.

What's up? What's up? [laughing]

-[man] Oh!
-God, it's so good to see you.

She's tough to cr*ck,
but when you break those walls down,

she's very tender, and sweet, and kind.

Being in love with Stacy has been a ride.

A crazy ride, um, but there's no one else
that I would wanna do it with.

Y'all want drinks? Here's y'all's tuxes.

Dude, I'm cracking up
at the size difference of you and mine.

-[man 1] That's you. That's me.
-[man 2] Nick, yeah. Zach.

[Izzy sighs] Oh, dude.

I got so much to fill y'all in on.

-Oh, yeah?
-Oh, yeah.

[friends laughing]

From just the last 48 hours or what?

Yeah, I was a wreck last night.

[Izzy] I didn't think that my credit score
was gonna be that big of a deal,

so I wasn't, like, afraid to tell her.

I'm a man of integrity.
The strong rock. The cool, calm guy.

And she finally saw me
just kind of lose it, you know.

When you love someone
and that emotional connection is there,

like, love has no credit score.

Love has no price tag.

Love has no timeline.

Honestly, like, we have
really good communication.

Um, anytime problems would come up,
yeah, I would get frustrated.

We would have arguments.

It was never, like,
anything toxic or crazy,

and we'd always,
like, fix it and move on. [exhales]

Everything was good, but it's just,
like, in the last two or three days,

I felt her stress.

-[Nick] Dude, I felt your stress.
-[Zach] You're stressed, dude!

Homestretch, 48 hours. Yeah.

[Izzy] That's how I know I love her.
Like, I was lost, like, going through it.

Um, and she was too.

We told each other, like, we need space.

Like, you need to process this sh*t
for yourself.

I need to process it.
But that's my girl. I love her.

-I'mma hold you to that too.
-[laughs] You'll be next to me up there.

I've known you your whole life,
and you've been through some stuff, so...

-It's just another...
-[Izzy] Yeah.

You're one of the strongest people I know.

[Izzy sighs heavily]

And I don't care about
whatever drama goes on outside.

I don't care about money.

I don't care about... anything.

She always said that she needs
someone that can stick around

when sh*t's hitting the fan.

Um, that doesn't run away.

So, I'm gonna keep fighting.

It's...

It's what you do when you love someone.

-[all laughing]
-Honestly, I'm so glad you guys are here.

I'm going up, I'm saying yes.

[uplifting music playing]

[Sloan] What is your hair vibe?
What are you going for?

Just down, simple.

All of it's very simple,
'cause my dress is not.

You look stunning.

This has been
the most emotionally and mentally

challenging thing I've ever been through.

And then you also have the best things
in your life happening at the same time.

So it's just like a... [breathing raggedly]

It's like emotional hiccups.

We've been through so much,

and there's the things
that we figure out that are so amazing,

and then things that are not so amazing,
and both are surprises.

I've seen myself marrying him,

but on my wedding day,

I wanna be laser-focused, 100%,

like I was in the pods.

I've definitely never seen you
ask the hard questions this fast.

-[Chelsea] Right.
-I love asking Izzy the hard questions.

Sometimes, he has a surprised face,

and other times,
he's very excited to answer,

but I just love catching him off guard,
where he's like...

Izzy and I are so different.

We have very different
experiences in life,

and he has a lot of things
that he hasn't done that maybe I have.

I mean, he just got his passport.

His favorite restaurant
I think is Chipotle. I'm like...

I feel like that's a guy thing.

-[Stacy] It definitely is!
-Maybe not these guys.

-Ray is a habit eater.
-[Stacy] I love Chipotle.

[Sloan] He's also,
like, he works out a lot.

I feel like guys like Chipotle
'cause it's the rice.

-The protein, the veggies.
-[Stacy] I know. Sloan, I'm well aware.

[Sloan] They don't
have to do it themselves.

"What about Peruvian food? Have you ever
gone to a Mediterranean restaurant?"

Like, he doesn't know what to order.

Well, you're like the girl
with the hip spots.

It's just funny.

I love Izzy.
I think that he's a sweet guy.

I could see him easily
fitting in with this family.

Seeing you guys together,

you do have a very fun,
funny relationship.

Like, you make each other laugh,
and I think he would work really well

in our family.

I just transitioned

from going with my head and logic
to going with my heart.

-And today you have to go with your gut.
-[Stacy] Mmm-hmm.

[Chelsea] But I like that you've gotten
out of your head.

Yeah, I do too.

I was just always afraid of getting hurt
or being so wrong about someone

and letting that wall down
to just get hurt again. So it's...

-It's kind of liberating.
-[Sloan] We've talked about that.

I feel like you didn't wanna be
scared anymore to trust somebody.

Yeah, but I just couldn't get there.
[chuckles]

It's like, I knew the issue, but I'm like,
"I think that's just a part of me now."

But now it's like,
"Okay, maybe that wasn't a part of me."

-"Maybe I just needed to through..."
-[Sloan] That's what I wanted for you.

I don't want you to think that
that's a part of who you are. I think you...

I think you meet people that make you
change what you thought was who you were.

Yeah. I didn't think that was possible.
I didn't think that was a thing.

-'Cause I know everything. [laughing]
-[Sloan] Right? Yeah!

I mean, who's gonna teach me anything
when I know it all? Guys!

[laughing]

I'm glad y'all are here,
'cause when I'm by myself, I f*cking...

-[Zach] Get in your head?
-I get in my head.

And I start, like, just thinking
the worst versus being more optimistic

and looking at the brighter side.

You gotta think about, like, nerves,
when somebody's nervous about something,

that usually means, like, they care.

Know what I mean?
Like when we played baseball.

You were nervous before a game,
it's 'cause you cared about it.

Yeah. Something that she had told me
in the pods was like,

"I need a man who's gonna stick
through sh*t when sh*t's hitting the fan,

not run away." Um...

-Yeah.
-So, you're saying she wants a man?

-Exactly. And I'm that f*cking man.
-[Nick] Yeah.

-There you go.
-[Zach laughs] Attaboy! Attaboy! Yeah!

So, how are you feeling this morning?

I don't know. It's weird.
I woke up feeling very calm.

-Mmm-hmm. That's good.
-Which is not how I felt yesterday.

I felt very anxious yesterday
and stressed out.

You got a lot going on. [exhales]

The most anxiety-driving part
is, like, feeling like I didn't

get all of the information
that I should have gotten

when it was already brought up
several times.

-It made me doubt him.
-Mmm-hmm.

-It's not about the credit card.
-[Tracy] Second guessing.

It's about being totally transparent

in a time where transparency
is absolutely needed.

I mean, it's that half glass empty
versus half glass full, where he's like,

"If I wanted to lie,
I never would've told you."

I'm like, "If you wanted to be honest
with me, you would've told me sooner."

And when I try to explain that to him,

he's like, "You're all about money."

And I'm like,
"I'm not talking about money."

"I'm talking about honesty, trust."

I had red flags, and I ignored them
because I thought I was so in love.

[Stacy] Mmm-hmm.

I would never ignore red flags,

and I don't want you
to maybe blow something out of proportion

that maybe isn't as big a thing.

Do you feel like he's told you everything?

I feel like there's all these
different voices in my head of, like,

"But he has" and "I have," like,
"I'm showing you," and it's like...

"And I'm fighting for you and..."
Yeah, you are, but...

-I do care about him.
-Oh, I know you do.

And I know he cares about you,

and you're very good together.

I know this is so difficult,
but he wants it really bad.

And I think you want it.

Yeah.

I'm sure when you get up there,

you'll either feel like,
"I'm gonna take this leap of faith,"

or "I can't do it."

You know, you'll know talking to him.

So, if you say no today,

are you willing to lose Izzy forever?

Yeah. I'm right here. You're good.

Let us all join in our love and support
of Stacy and Izzy,

with our best wishes
for their everlasting happiness.

Let's start this loving gathering
by celebrating the love that you share.

Stacy and Izzy, you're both
standing across from your biggest fan.

The compatibility
that you share is obvious.

There are many people who know you,
but few people who understand you.

Your love and understanding
is key to navigating the uncertainties

that your future will bring.

Emotions and feelings change,

but this love that the two of you share
is everlasting.

And what a beautiful feeling it is
to have found that someone.

Fortunately, you're both clearly
in very good hands.

You are

tough to cr*ck.

[chuckles]

But when those walls are broken,

you are the most tender
and sweet girl that I've ever met.

That's why I'm in love with you,
because that's the girl that I see in you.

You know when I'm down.
You know when I'm up.

When I'm in my head.

I fell in love with you.

It hit me like a train out of left field.

I appreciate you. I adore you.

You've made me a better man

and I will always be here to reassure you.

Be that calm, cooling man that you need.

Marriage is not easy.
Relationships are not easy.

And...

when you face adversity,
it's so easy to run

and give up.

I will never give up on you,

and I will always fight.

I will always fight for you.

I love you with all my heart.
I will always be here and just...

She looks amazing in this dress, right?

-Can we...
-[crowd cheering]

[laughing]

[sighs]

Going into all of this,
you hit me like a train out of left field.

And you did it in ways
that made me feel safe.

I'm very practical and realistic,
and you made me think with my heart.

You made me feel again.

You make me wanna be a better person
and do things that I'm not necessarily

comfortable doing,
but I wanna do it for you.

[voice breaks] You are my rock.

[sniffles]

[crying] This whole thing has been
like a freakin' hurricane.

[sniffles] And you're the calm
in the storm.

[sniffles] The last few days
have been a lot,

but I still love you through it.

-I love you.
-And I've never not loved you.

There's no one else in this world
that I would do it with other than you.

[officiant] Izzy and Stacy,
you chose each other

based on an intense emotional connection.

Looks, age, finances,

and all the superficial things
of the world

were not a factor for the two of you.

Now is the time to decide
if love is blind.

[suspenseful music playing]

Izzy, do you take Stacy as your wife?

Do you promise to love her,
comfort her, honor, and keep her,

forsaking all others
as long as you both will live?

If so, please say, "I do."

[suspenseful music continues]

And, Stacy,

do you take Izzy to be your husband?

[tense music playing]

Do you promise to love him,
comfort him, honor, and keep him

in sickness and in health,

and forsaking all others
as long as you both will live?

And if so, please say, "I do."

[tense music continues]

[whispers] Oh, my gosh.

I love you more than I can even explain.

[gentle music playing]

I wanna make you happy.
I wanna give you that reassurance.

And I do want you, and I wanna say yes.

But I would be doing you and I
a disservice right now

to say that "I do" when I feel like
there's a lot of things that we need.

And more than anything, we need time.

We haven't had time.

That's something that I need.

So, for me today, I can't.

[softly] I hope you understand that.

[sweet music playing]

I understand.

-And I love you.
-[laughs]

-[sweet music continues]
-[guests clapping]

I don't think we're doing this
in the right order, but that's okay.

[guests laughing]

[sighs] I really feel better.

[Izzy] Good. As you should.

-[inhales and whispers] Are you okay?
-Yeah.

I've always been your biggest fan,
your biggest supporter.

And you know that.

And...

it's fair to the both of us
to be in that right spot.

[Stacy] Okay.

[exhales] How are you feeling?

Well... [exhales]

I'm very surprised.

But right now,

my concern is you.

I don't wanna be negative.

I don't wanna be telling you
all this kind of stuff.

That's not me.

-I know you've given all your heart.
-Yeah.

You've given everything
that you have on this relationship.

To see this moment as a mom, it hurts.

We have gone through so much

since you were...

Since you were in my tummy, and, um...

I know this is hurting you right now.

It just makes me remember the times when...

I used to take you
to go get your immunizations.

-[both laugh]
-[Izzy] Mmm-hmm.

And they would poke you.
You'd cry and cry.

And that would hurt me so much,
and I would cry too.

But I knew that
that pain that you had in that moment,

it was better for you to hurt right then.

I'd rather you hurt right now

than later in the future.

But it touched me so much
to hear everything that you said.

You have no idea.

To see you pouring your heart there

made me realize even more

how proud I am of you.

I'm the man I am because of you. So...

-Papi!
-You need to know that.

So thank you for that. [chuckles]

You are gonna be okay.

I love you. [kisses]

I love you, Papi, so much.

-Don't give up, okay?
-No.

You're someone that has so much to offer.

So much.

And I love you.

-Thank you.
-I love you, baby.

-I love you. Thanks for being here for me.
-Very much.

[kisses]

I mean, I feel fine.

-I think he's very sincere.
-Mmm-hmm.

I think everything he said is sweet.

I talked to his friends.

-They all talk highly of him.
-Mmm-hmm.

And have known him
since he's a little kid, you know.

-[Stacy] Mmm-hmm.
-So, I mean, he's genuine.

I do love him. He's amazing.

He's taught me so much.

I mean, everybody I talked to were like,
"They're such a great couple."

We are!

Do you have any regrets?

No.

Like, standing there talking to him,

I meant everything that I said.

Today, I wasn't for certain
on it being right.

I didn't think that I'd feel
how I felt standing there today,

and it wasn't a bad feeling,
like, I know I love you.

Standing up there,
it's like, "I know I love him."

I thought I'd be a nervous wreck.

I just feel relieved, like...

the pressure's gone.

I feel like getting through that

is probably the hardest thing.

Why?

[tranquil music playing]

'Cause I wanna make you happy.

[voice breaking] I'm just very
confused right now.

[Stacy whispers] Oh...

Don't be confused about how I feel.

Whatever we wanna do with what
we have now moving forward, it's up to us.

And I know it's not gonna be easy.

I'd like to feel like it's us again.

And I'm willing
to put whatever into it to get there.

Do you mean that?

I do mean that.

I need time to know that I can trust you

and all the things
that you've told me too.

I don't know. It's just... It's tough.

We're going steps backwards now.

[Stacy] I don't see it that way.

I'm not expecting you
to jump for joy anytime soon

or feel okay or feel sure.

But, like,
I'm still standing here with you.

Yeah, well, I mean,
we're, like, at different spots.

Like, it really breaks my heart.

Like, I love you.

Did wanna marry you, like...

[Stacy] Mmm-hmm.

A timeline didn't matter for me.

-But that's just me.
-Mmm-hmm.

When is ever gonna be
the right time, you know?

That's what I'm gonna wonder with you.

Like, when is ever
gonna be the right time?

[bittersweet music playing]

Is it ever gonna feel
like it's the right time? [chuckles]

She told me it's just too fast of timing.

If I'm the one, what difference
does it make on the timeline?

We could die tomorrow.

It's like she's always trying
to find something wrong.

I just wanna be loved
the way that I love. [sighs]

Bottom line, I deserve that.

that's what she... where she's at.

Less pressure, less this, less that.

It's like all the outside sh*t

And I blocked out everything.

Looks, money, drama.

I just focused on her.

It's just, like,

And that's the whole point of this,
is "Does it matter?"

Does a credit score matter?
Does the car I drive matter?

Does where I go to f*cking dinner matter?

None of that matters to me.

You cannot tell that I'm the bride.

Can you tell I'm the bride?
Can you tell? Can you tell?

Oh, my God!

Even though on our final date,
Milton was like,

"Oh, you're too emotional. I didn't like
the way that you handled that situation,"

I will never stop being who I am.

And I'm hoping that today,

he realizes that
I'm exactly what he needs.

under my polarizing microscope.

Oh, my God, you're such a nerd. I love it.

We have the same passion,
the same background.

That's pretty dope.

so hard to be loved for who I am.

-Mmm-hmm.

with you.

-You gonna be my Puerto Rican wife?
-Yes. [laughing]

Yes, I will be your Puerto Rican wife.

[both laugh]

[Lydia] Oh, my God!

I came to this experience
because I wanted to find love.

Because I wanted to find my husband.

And you know what? I did!

-100%.
-[uplifting music playing]

-No concerns about age?
-I would be concerned.

-I just think of how I was when I was 24.
-[woman laughs]

-[Lydia] Yeah, 'cause as we all...
-Party, party, party.

That's what we all tend to do,
but he has...

-[woman] He has proved you wrong?
-Yeah, he has proved me wrong.

And he's definitely more advanced
where I was at 24.

He has his master's degree
and, like, engineer, and...

He's the first one to, like, talk to me
and make sure that I'm not upset,

that I'm happy, that...
We talk about everything.

And that is exactly what I wanted.

Someone who is gonna be able

to communicate with me properly
in all the ways.

Have you had, like, a true fight?

-Like, does he know...
-We have had our challenges.

Actually, it was our last date out.
I had to walk out of the room

because he did bring up
the situation with my past.

-Let's call him...
-[Claudia] Unnameable!

-Yeah, unnameable. Voldemort.
-[Lilibette laughing] Voldemort!

And he was like, "Oh, I just didn't like
how you handled that situation."

Like, "You were too emotional"
or something.

I just think he judged me
a little bit for my reaction.

And that was, like, hurting me.

He was like, "Oh, I don't like
how you're reacting."

And I let him know. We talked about it,

and he understood where I was coming from,

and he's like, "No, I didn't try
to judge you by anything."

He believes that I had
to learn a little bit from his side,

and I was like,
"You need to learn about being emotional,

being able to be at peace
with your own emotions."

But besides that,

we get along great.

I mean, I know that he understands me,
and I understand where he's coming from.

We have never disrespected each other.

We talk every night before going to bed,

and he's sweet
and loving and caring, you know.

Every night, like, he hugs me,

and he just wants to cuddle and hold me.

And he always said to me,
"I... I never wanna let go."

-And I've never had that before. Ooh!

I'm so happy.

[Milton] It's hard to describe
how I feel about Lydia. It's like...

I love how compassionate Lydia is.
I love how much empathy she has.

I feel like that's something, like...
I've always wanted.

I think Lydia is kind of
the exact woman I need.

I've been up since 2:00 p.m. yesterday.
I had to work overnight.

I got off at, like, 7:00 a.m. today.

I've been up ever since.

But today's my wedding day.

from having a great day.

at times one of her, like, weaknesses.

for her to be reserved

and make, like, really calculated
decisions in, like, a challenging time.

I don't know,

just like an uneasy feeling, like,
kind of like you're on a roller coaster.

You can probably be 99.9%,

but 100% is a number

one of life's greatest moments,

to give recognition
to the worth and beauty of love

and to add our best wishes
to the words that shall unite

Lydia and Milton in marriage.

I would ask that you both
remind yourself often

of what brought you together today.

Give the highest priority
to tenderness, gentleness, and kindness

that your marriage deserves.

When clouds of trouble
hide the sun in your lives,

remember that the sun is still there.

And if each of you
will take responsibility

for the quality of your life together,

it will be marked
with abundance and delight.

Lydia and Milton,

today we celebrate the power of your love

and the strength of your bond.

I fell in love with you

'cause you chose me.

Countless laughs,

hour-long conversations,

and you made sure
that I knew I was your first.

I've fallen in love with you
'cause you listened.

You comprehend.
You understanded who I was.

Genuinely me.

I fell in love
with you in the pods because

you interested me.

You challenged me and my thinking.

You always inspired me to be more.

We had our ups, we had our downs,

and the communication maturity
that you showed,

I knew you were the one.

I never had a doubt about you

and I hope it continues
to be like that forever.

[officiant] You fell in love with each
other based on who you are on the inside

and decided to get married, sight unseen.

Now is the time to decide
if love is blind.

Lydia, do you take Milton
to be your husband?

Do you promise to love,
honor, cherish, and protect him,

forsaking all others
and holding only onto him?

[suspenseful music playing]

Yes, I do.

[laughs nervously]

[mouths] I love you.

Aww.

[officiant] And, Milton,
do you take Lydia to be your wife?

Do you promise to love,
honor, cherish and protect her,

forsaking all others
and holding only onto her?

who you are as individuals,

but also who you are as a couple.

As my husband.

[Lydia] In sickness and in health.

For richer and for poorer.

In joy and in sorrow.

-Yeah, right.

Watch and learn, mister.

[cork pops]

[Lydia] Getting married,
it is a dream come true.

I feel so, so, so happy.

I got everything I need right here.

-You finished it?
-I thought we were supposed to.

Oh, my... [laughing]

How do I look?

Oh, my God. You look so sexy. My bride!

Gimme a walk.
Come, gimme a walk from there.

I wanna see you.

♪ So long since I have seen myself... ♪

[Izzy] I definitely feel love is blind,

because what I've experienced... [sighs]

...is I don't care how you look,

how much money you make.

You put everything aside
that people face in the real world

when you find
that connection with someone.

I'm just really sad 'cause I gave
everything I had to give to someone.

[sniffles] But I deserve someone
to love me the same way that I love.

I deserve the effort that I put in...

[crying] ...to be reciprocated.

That's what I deserve.

[Stacy] Love is absolutely blind.

Izzy opened me up emotionally in a way
that I never thought was possible,

but I don't have 100% certainty.

Fairly certain isn't good enough
for me to say yes to the rest of my life.

[Taylor] Part of me regrets
not going through with it.

-[JP crying] Will you marry me?
-I will! [laughs]

Trying to live with JP,
meeting each other's families and stuff...

I love you so much!

I love you too.

[Taylor] Because my feelings
were real for him.

But a lot of my heart
says I did the right thing.

I think my inability to open up
has definitely pushed women away.

Uh, it's definitely something
that I know I need to work on.

I still wanna keep trying, 'cause there's
someone out there for everyone.

I do regret not creating that environment
where Aaliyah felt vulnerable,

and where she felt safe.

Oh, boy, you're a recent cheater.

And that is something
that I'm going to work on,

so I can grow,
and I can be a better communicator,

and I can be better
in a relationship in the future.

♪ I wanted you to know... ♪

[Aaliyah] Love is a mindset.

It's a lifestyle, and it's a daily choice.

This experiment has challenged me
in a really weird way

that I've never experienced
in my life before.

[Uche] I can't believe some girl
said something to you,

and you let that come in between us.

[Aaliyah crying on phone] Uche, I'm sorry!

I regret leaving you like that.

I do love you.

I've learned not to be afraid
to really open yourself up

to the possibility of something
that scares you.

["Let Me Go" continues playing]

[Johnie] I've learned that I'm definitely
not a perfect person.

Like, I haven't always
made the best decisions.

I do want you.

-Yeah.
-I messed up, and I'm... I'm sorry, but...

[Johnie crying] I am capable
of having a healthy relationship.

No, that's Chris. You know we're official?

[chuckles] Love and commitment
is still gonna be a lot of work,

but I'm not gonna give up.

♪ I know what I deserve... ♪

You okay?

I believe love is blind,
because in my life,

the emotional connection
brings out the physical connection.

And I've grown and learned
that sometimes love is very unexpected.

You just kind of
have to follow your heart,

and I'm just really optimistic

and very excited for the future.

We will see.

[man] Come on!
Let's hear it for the bride and groom!

[crowd cheering]

["Big Big Love"
by Belinda Carlisle playing]

[both] We are married!

I feel amazing!

[man] Yeah, buddy!

[Milton] All the data points led me to...
"This is the right decision."

All is said and done,
the only thing that matters is

we're both happy with one another.

We both challenge each other to do better.

And we love each other.

-Yeah, I guess that too.
-[chuckles]

♪ I want a love that keeps me up nights
Gives me butterflies... ♪

[all cheering]

If I could describe my relationship
in one sentence, it would be,

"The imperfect perfectly
relationship for me."

What does that even mean?
Your English is so bad.

[chuckles] I'll explain it to you later.

♪ I'm looking for a big, big love... ♪

[Lydia] Do it together.

-You're not supposed to do it like that!
-You're supposed to do it from the top.

-Supposed to do it through the bottom.
-No, you do it from the top.

-This is just the beginning.
-I do believe love is blind.

I married the man of my dreams
and a little bit more.

[Lydia] I am ready
to start my life with my husband.

New chapter.
