Love is Blind (Love Is Blind)

Taylor McKinsey-Roo, will you marry me?

I will!

You gonna be my Puerto Rican wife?

Yes, I will be your Puerto Rican wife!

If I don't leave here with you and you don't leave here with me,

I'm always gonna think about you for the rest of my life.

I'm sorry.

Chris, I wanna be with you.

I came here to find my wife,

and at one point, I thought that I had.

- Oh, my God! -

Oh, God, you're beautiful.

My eyelashes are gonna fall off. These are fake, by the way.

Oh, they're not that long in real life?

-You can't tell? -I can tell.

Hello. Who is this?

Uh, my name is Uche.

Fuck!

Lydia?

One of my dates was a girl that I have dated in the past.

It's Lydia.

I know everything about him because I know him.

I'm in love with Aaliyah, and I'm going to ask Aaliyah to marry me.

Last time we saw each other, this year, we slept together.

Hello?

Uche, unfortunately,

Aaliyah has decided to not continue with the experiment.

She's gone.

I'm sorry, man.

She, like, left?

They told me she decided not to continue with the experiment.

It doesn't make any sense.

- Did you guys argue yesterday? - No.

She didn't express any kind of doubts.

At all.

Maybe she was just, like...

-It's too much. -Like, didn't wanna tell you no.

I felt deeply for Johnie,

and that was fucking hard.

Maybe she just got cold feet.

Yeah, I'm so confused. Something has to have happened.

She saw Lydia get engaged, right?

I mean...

We obviously didn't talk about it.

Wait, so you think she thought Lydia was engaged to you?

No.

It's one thing for everybody to have exes.

Mmm-hmm.

And it's another to be essentially living

with the ex of the person that you're thinking about marrying.

I knew Lydia before I came here.

I've dated Lydia before.

I found out. Then we talked about it.

-It is what it is. - Doesn't matter.

I mean, it's shitty on her end to not give you that closure,

you know, just to leave you hanging like that.

There's gotta be something I'm missing.

So, she got on a plane and left?

Correct.

And there's been no contact with her since?

Correct.

I'm so confused.

She didn't express any kind of reservations yesterday.

We were on the same page.

She told me that she loves me. I told her that I love her.

She says that she could see herself marrying me.

She can see a life with me.

And to just walk away without saying anything...

It's just...

This doesn't make any sense.

I can't accept this without having the chance to talk to her.

Like, I need to talk to her.

If you have an interest in reaching out,

Marco can try calling her and ask her if she wants to talk to you.

If you just wanna leave and do that on your own time,

that's totally your call.

I need to talk to her.

Do you want Marco to see if she picks up and just say,

"I'm here with Uche. Do you wanna talk to him?"

Yeah.

Hi.

I know we have a lot to catch up on.

However, I do have Uche here.

And I wanted to know if you'd like an opportunity to talk to him.

Okay.

- Okay. - I'm going to pass him the phone.

Okay.

Hello?

Uche.

Aaliyah, what happened?

There was, like, an exchange of words between Lydia and I ...

...that didn't really go well.

Um...

We talked about this, Aaliyah.

Things changed.

What, what, what... What did Lydia say?

I was on edge a little, Uche. I was.

I told her, "If you didn't propose,

maybe you could have him back if you wanted."

And she was just like, "Fuck you. I don't want him back."

Why would you say something like that?

'Cause I'll be honest, I feel like she smothers me a little bit.

Every time she comes, she brings you up.

Why does all of that matter? It happened.

Uche, I'm sorry.

You let some girl come in between us?

Because of something she said?

When you love somebody,

you don't just leave without telling them anything.

Please don't.

Are you at home right now? Where are you?

At home.

Why didn't you stay here and talk to me?

How do you feel about me right now?

I still love you. I still want you.

Then why aren't you here?

Uche, I do love you. I do.

If you love somebody, you... you talk to them.

-This... -This isn't a normal environment.

I know it's not a normal environment, but that's the entire point.

The point is if we can get through a stressful situation,

that means it's going to work in a marriage.

I would not do that in a marriage.

If you can't put up with the situation

of even being in the room with somebody that I used to date...

- You would be my husband by then. -No. No, Aaliyah.

We would never get to that point.

If you can't get through something like this,

we will never get to that point.

I can't believe some girl said something to you

and you let that come in between us.

How do you not know that when she was at your place earlier this year ,

she didn't see an email and apply to be on this damn show?

Are you fucking kidding me right now?

Did you seriously just ask me that?

I don't know how she's... and you are both here in the first place.

I don't either, Aaliyah,

and I told you that.

I don't fucking know how she's here.

It's just bullshit, the whole situation of...

You keep on talking about her though.

Like...

Because I don't have you yet!

You had one day! You had one day!

One day! You had to sit in a room with a girl for one day,

and you chose to go home instead.

I don't feel like it's fair for you to say

that I just don't value you or what we have,

because I did something to protect me.

Exactly. You thought about yourself. You didn't think about me at all.

Are you thinking about me right now?

I'm literally here getting ready to propose to you,

to tell you I wanna spend the rest of my life with you.

Yes, I'm thinking about you! That's the only thing I'm thinking about!

You didn't even write me a letter. I got nothing.

You couldn't even say goodbye? Nothing?

I was going to, but I didn't have time to do that in the moment.

Oh, I cannot believe this.

Oh, I'm so stupid.

You're not stupid.

I'm such a fucking idiot.

No, you're not.

This is exactly what I thought was gonna happen.

I was gonna let myself get close to the wrong person.

Okay, well, if that's how you feel, then maybe we don't need to keep talking.

No, we're not gonna keep talking, Aaliyah.

Can you please not make that decision right now?

I don't wanna talk to her.

I don't wanna talk to her. I don't want her phone number.

I don't wanna see her again.

For my whole entire life,

guys have been interested in me for what I look like.

This is the first time

that someone has cared about me

for what I have to offer based on my personality,

soul, likes, passion.

Falling in love with Milton

and he falling love with me feels the epiphany of happiness.

No, it's "epitome." He did say that he needed to teach me English.

Finding a person like Lydia in my life
