02x17 - Let the Dating Games Begin!

Post by bunniefuu »

[male narrator] Next, on the "Real World.."

♪ I can't get enough of your love baby ♪♪

I-I feel very claustrophobic

when it comes to relationships.

I'm nowhere close

to even getting married.

I-I don't really need to have a girlfriend.

I don't even know what I want.

Sometimes I freak out because I think

"God, I'm-I'm never going to meet someone."

I have trouble dating one girl

for a decent amount of time

I get sick of them.

I'm to a point now where I have to think of myself.

And all this and trying to get laid, too.

[male narrator] This is the true story..

♪ True story ♪♪

[Tami] Of seven strangers..

[Jon] Picked to live in a house..

Beth!

[Beth S] And have their lives taped..

[Aaron] To find out what happens..

[Beth A] When people stop being polite..

[Glen] And start getting real.

It does take longer than minutes, but..

What is the darkened skin in the nipple called?

[Tami] 'Ooh!'

- I don't know. - You guys don't know?

Tell us the answer.

[Beth] 'It's the areola.'

[Tami] 'The question is out of play, go ahead, Jon.'

Some of these do not need to be read out loud.

Somebody else go.

During her reproductive years

will the average woman have intercourse

over ,, , or , times?

I think we should play a different game.

Tam-Tami, how many times would you say you've had sex?

What did you..

Beth, how many times have you ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪?

And you said so.

[Jon] 'Let's narrow that down, how many times in that closet?'

[screams]

Jon was this nice guy from Kentucky..

Jon Brennan!

♪ Let's talk about sex ♪♪

I'm trying to like think

when-when the last time was that I had sex

and it hasn't been in a long time.

[Beth] I would like to be in a relationship.

Oh, I know.

You know, there's a guy that I'm interested in

in Cleveland and a guy

that I'm interested in, in New York.

So, why can't I find somebody in Los Angeles that I like?

[Tony] 'Alright, well, I'll let you go.'

Okay.

Tony is my ex-boyfriend from college.

He lives in New York now.

And he's coming in tonight.

Eight O'clock from Newark.

And I have no idea what we're going to do.

Yeah, I'm-I'm pretty nervous about it.

I'm dying to see what he's going to look like.

Hey, how you doing?

You look very New York.

I know, let's go.

♪ But I'm a creep ♪

He's just different.

He purposely came with that

facial hair just to piss me off

is what he did.

♪ What the hell am I doing here ♪

♪ I don't belong here ♪

I was never really looking for anything

in the romantic sense

but he did have some expectations.

I felt bad, I had to get these pictures taken

but he got really mad.

He got really mad

and there was nothing I could do about it.

I told him that I had to get my headshots done.

It was just, it was really awkward

the whole entire time.

♪ Run run run ♪♪

I'm not in the position to say whether

he changed for better or for worse.

If he's happy with the way he is, that's great.

'I mean, he used to be like really conservative'

'Now he's got a tattoo.'

And that shouldn't change my feelings about anything

but, he's just different.

Pretty scary.

Would you trade all the sex that you had

to-to go back and-and regain your virginity?

I won't say that.

I will say, I would give up everything.

All the sex that I've ever had

if one person, that was everything

that it was the way it should be

'I would give everything away to--'

[Jon] 'If that could just be the only one--'

The only person, yes. Exactly.

There is someone that I'm very, very

very, very interested in.

I do care about him and he cares about me

so we stick together.

I love you.

Tami is probably the most set

in a relationship right now.

Tamiisin.

Yeah, sure.

[Jon] 'Hi, Tami.'

'It's her boyfriend!'

Tami is the only one that has a boyfriend that I know of.

Well, I'm just calling because I haven't talked to you today.

♪ And you want my love ♪

♪ Well that's alright ♪

♪ Well it will be there for you morning noon and night ♪

[Tami] Everyone nowadays wants that one person

that they can settle down with.

My ideal mate would probably be

very tall, very attractive

a sense of humor.

Someone that didn't argue with me.

I would have to always be right in the relationship.

How dare you call me ugly!

You ugly.

That is the pot calling the kettle black.

- But you ugly. - No.

♪ I got so much love in me ♪♪

[Tami] I think marriage should be something special

between two people that they stay together

for the rest of their lives.

But I can see the next person getting married as Beth.

She's probably the most ready

to settle down person out of all of us.

[Beth] I decided to bake some cookies

for my friend Tim in Cleveland.

I met him over December.

He's a great guy, I really like him.

I think he's really hot.

Really hot.

I feel like I'm in high school

or something when we talk.

Because it's like I want to tell him how I feel

but I'm kind of afraid to.

What do you want me to say?

He wants to come visit me.

He's never been to Los Angeles before

and I think we would have a really good time

if he came to visit.

- Hey, what's going on? - What's up?

- Nothing much, how you doing? - Good.

He's-he's a gentleman.

I mean, I think he likes me.

We'll see what happens.

If Tim and I were living in the same city

we would definitely be dating

but we're not.

I mean, what-what am I supposed to do?

Where is Beth?

[Beth] 'Oh yeah, we shouldn't go in like that.'

[phone ringing]

[Tami] 'Hello? Are you yelling?'

''Cause if you're yelling I'm hanging up again.'

I found somebody else to go with me, are you listening?

'I'm not going to sit around like a damn fool.'

Tootie and I broke up because we were having

a lot of differences within our relationship

and lately we've been arguing a lot.

It just hasn't been a very pleasantful relationship.

[instrumental music]

You and Tootie split up?

Since when?

[Tami] I think marriage is great for other people

but I don't foresee it for myself.

I don't see myself with one person

for the rest of my life.

I'll-I'll probably never get close

to-to getting married.

I don't, I don't think I will.

♪ That's the way love goes ♪♪

I'd rather just, like

date quality, not quantity.

I've tried and you can't run a relationship

on the basis of someone's looks.

♪ Girls girls girls girls ♪

♪ Come on, come on, come on ♪♪

I have these-these really high standards that-that I want

out of a relationship and I'm not gonna compromise.

[instrumental music]

I've been through relationships in the past

and they've just turned into complete nightmares and so.

I think in life, when you compromise what you want

you're going to be an unhappy person.

I kind of, kind of patiently wait a lot of times, you know.

I'm not gonna compromise.

I-I get really depressed, you know?

I'm never gonna find anybody.

I'm too picky.

I don't know, I just get way too picky.

'Did you date any girls when you were at school?'

Uh-uh, I was only there for one semester.

[Aaron] 'That's enough time.'

[Jon] 'For a stud like you.'

Oh, okay.

Actually, in the grand scheme of things

I probably date a lot less than all my friends.

Aaron, there's a new girl here every week.

No, there's not.

[Jon] 'That one girl.'

- I got set up with that girl. - What was her name?

- You forgot her name. - No, I know her name.

- You forgot her name. - No, I know her name.

It's only been a week.

No, it hasn't been a week.

Yes, it has.

You're a crack addict, give me one second.

You forgot her name.

Aaron!

I look forward to having sex, definitely.

I guess that's obviously enjoyable

because everybody does it all the time

like a bunch of rabbits.

I guess she wasn't good enough for you.

Yeah, whatever.

[Jon] But premarital sex, according to the Bible

is just wrong, so I can wait.

But it starts getting harder to be such a good little boy.

Most girls at "The Borderline" are fine.

There was this-this girl

walking in and she was gorgeous.

♪ Oh yeah ♪♪

[instrumental music]

We were down Huntington beach

and every single one of them was just like

unbelievably beautiful.

All of a sudden I just looked up

and there was this girl in a bikini.

I said at that point she was

the best-looking girl I'd ever seen.

Gee whiz, she ain't naked

but she didn't have that much on!

She was looking fine.

And what do you do, you go over and say

"Hey, baby, you got a beautiful bod?" You know.

I'm not very forward that way

when I see a pretty girl, you know.

I guess I kind of chickened out, too.

- Oh, my. - You paid bucks for this?

Is it gold?

[laughing]

[Tami] 'Screw you, Jon Brennan.'

Well, we're in the right place.

It is the closet.

[Beth] 'Shut up!'

Someone...had oral sex in the closet.

I didn't do anything in the closet!

- Yes! - That was a joke.

- I told you. - Oh.

I told you the next day that it was a joke.

I was joking around

just to make Jon feel uneasy

and then the next day I told him I was only kidding.

She had one of her boyfriends out from Ohio

and she was like, you know

"I didn't want anybody to see, you know"

"me kissing him or anything

"so we got in the closet."

I innocently kissed somebody

and it just so happened to be in the closet

and that is all that happened.

[Jon] She said she had oral sex with this guy in the closet.

Jon, oh my God.

Oh, my God.

Taggin' and braggin'

on what happened in the closet.

A kiss is a kiss

and a sigh is just a sigh, I don't know.

She told us she did it

and now she's trying to deny it and say she didn't do it.

But she did it.

I kissed a man..

Shut up!

It's kind of hard to get intimate with anybody, anyway

even if I wanted to, in this house.

But I know of some people that have had

sex outside of the house, yeah.

Do you want to know who?

[Dominic] Tracy is a girl that I dated for a year.

We work together writing.

This is Tracy, Tracy, this is Timmy.

[Tracy] 'Hi.'

[Dominic] We split up months ago

but she's a really good friend of mine

a very special person.

Lisa last year said anything to you about the "Suede" show?

The interview will either be on the th or the th.

[Dominic] She's good at some things, I'm good at others.

Whatever work comes in, we divide it up

and we just put our-our name at the end of it.

This is the "Jellyfish Rock?"

Yeah, but I've got to shorten it down.

[Dominic] You know, once I thought, "this is great."

I mean, I'm sleeping with my best friend

I'm really having a good time.

But then, I get kind of bored and kind of antsy

and I want to move on.

♪ But that's it ♪

♪ You are still in trouble ♪♪

Two people becoming one must be a beautiful thing

but I hope someday I will be ready for it.

I need to go out and experience a lot more life

a lot more women.

Strings are good.

Yeah.

♪ In the old time ♪

[Dominic] Obviously I'm only playing tennis

to try to get in bed with Brooke.

You want to play for money?

It'd be nice to start a physical relationship

and eventually end up handcuffing

each other to bedposts.

She's beaten me every time.

One game I lost $ to her.

That's kind of frustrating, too.

'You play a wonderful game, Brooke.'

I'm not real big on beating women

on the first date, you know.

Especially when it comes to these things

you know, you don't force them.

You know, there's lots of people out there

that I go out with anyway.

Karen.

- 'Hello.' - Hello.

Karen is a girl I met.

We just started talking.

I asked her if she wanted to go for a ride on the bike.

Driving up the coast

A g*y rodeo, what

are the cows g*y?

[cow mooing]

Oh, here we go, here we go.

[male #] 'Six seconds.'

Whoo!

What makes me happy is to be with women.

And what makes me whole is to be with women.

It wasn't just coming out about my sexuality.

It was coming out about me.

My ideals and my beliefs are okay and acceptable.

And that I can be independent

and that I don't need to be taken care of.

I am taking care of me.

Give yourselves a hand.

[Beth Anthony] The person who I was dating

we're not dating anymore.

So, it's affected my sex life in a, in a great way

and then in the same sense, it hasn't at all.

I'm still perfectly satisfied.

Well, then just get off me.

[Beth Anthony] 'I'm not on you.'

Why don't you give yourself a little hug?

[Glen] Beth Anthony makes me feel comfortable.

You can talk to her in depth, and she actually

gives you an answer from the heart.

You're going to sleep, you're going to try to sleep?

What are you doing, are you sleeping?

Glen and I have a very

child-like relationship.

He's a good friend of mine who I can kid around

with and punch and goof off with

and burp in his face.

♪ That I can't get it strange and wonderful ♪♪

[Dominic] They found some common ground.

I don't know, I mean they're way different.

You explain them.

[Beth] 'They are under the table.'

They're gonna roll around under the table

let them roll around under the table.

[Beth Anthony] We're affectionate

we're playful, we're friends.

And so that makes him a little more

comfortable with me as a woman

'cause he has a lot of insecurities

and hang-ups about sex.

I'm usually very shy, and I don't say anything.

But by being around Beth Anthony

she's been showing me there's no sexual side

to-to meeting her friends

'cause they're not interested.

So you get to actually meet girls

without worrying about the whole sex thing.

[Tami] I just don't get her.

She's humping all over Glen.

That's weird to me.

[instrumental music]

[Aaron] Heather is someone that just about..

Probably about a month ago

became my good friend, and just we talk

aside from the fact that she's very intelligent

she's got very good values, I mean I like her.

I was wondering, when you do shish kebabs

since the chicken needs so much more time to cook

than all the vegetables

how does that work?

You just fry the hell out of it.

Oh, perfect.

[Heather] 'Are they burnt?'

'See, you know, what we need to do?'

Make smaller pieces of chicken.

It will taste good, it just looks bad.

[Aaron] It's kind of ironic in the sense that

four weeks before I graduate

you meet someone that you enjoy being with

and it's kind of weird how time can really suck.

[Jon] It started out as

"Okay, we got this big house

"and let's just, you know, invite

a couple people over, have a barbecue."

[Dominic] The performance started rather early.

We told people on the roof that "Perch"

was actually performing in the building.

[Glen] Even if people hate us

they still stand there in awe, like

"what is this? Like, ew!"

Dom seemed to be having a rendezvous

with, like, three women by accident.

[Dominic] Brooke, the tennis instructor

Syd, wonderful girl

and Karen, who came out

on my motor bike with me once.

The Dommer got himself

in a nugget dilemma for sure.

I mean, what was I doing wrong?

[Jon] It was just girls and-and guys and-and beer

and it was, it was really wild.

Ribbed, ribbed for her pleasure.

Ooh, fresh.

Have you ever had sex on the beach?

No. No, not in my clothes, don't you dare!

[Jon] It just got to the point where I was like

"Okay, everybody go home now."

[instrumental music]

Yeah, there was this girl, Dawn, there.

She seemed really cool.

♪ What I say ♪

♪ Love me back ♪

I just wanted to say hi.

I walked up in my room, and Dominic was in my bed.

Hey!

And then when the one girl who he liked came back

he was passed out.

He's not budging. Dominic!

Okay, everybody out!

I'm still trying to figure out

what the hell happened last night.

You left one girl over at the bar.

- Okay. - And another girl came for you.

Did any of them run into each other?

I don't think so.

Yes, yes!

Why am I celebrating now?

I still slept alone.

And I'm still going to be in trouble.

[Beth] I don't know what's going on with men.

My life is.. I don't know.

I've been so busy, I have no social life.

[Glen] Talking to Beth Anthony and just hugging her

I mean, I think that's romance.

[Jon] Personally, I would like to get married and have a family.

But I don't think, you know, you have to force it with

throwing big parties so you can meet that girl.

[Aaron] For me to say that I'm in love with someone

would take a while.

She'd have to stand the test of time.

[Dominic] I'm not mature enough for any of that stuff.

You've got to be emotionally willing to give.

I'm looking for someone.

I'm so confused when it comes to stuff like that.

- I was trying to-- - 'I just.. I can..'

[Dominic] Final predictions for Mexico.

Thank God, because I'd get sick.

Dom was a little wasted.

No, I'm not subscribing to no silly-a*s..

I knew it, the love affair would begin sometime.

Jon! I'm older than you, damn it!
