I need to tell you something.
Oh, my God. What?
[laughing]
When I hear of people falling madly in love online,
I kind of roll my eyes a little. But it's happened to me.
[Riley] I've never met Violet in person.
But now, it's happening.
I'm going to Vietnam.
Vietnam, man!
Look at you. Beautiful!
And if things work out, I'm ready to spend the rest of my life with her.
[both laughing]
[in Spanish]
[doctor speaking]
Oh, my God.
This is our last chance to reignite the spark.
-No. -Baby!
Seven years of talking about this moment.
[Meisha] Nicola is the love of my life.
But he is so different
from anyone else I have ever been with.
Oh, my gosh. Nicola!
He is a 46 year-old virgin.
[in other language]
[Sheila in English]
What if my son cannot connect with David because he's deaf?
[Tyray] My girlfriend lives in Barbados.
I've never been in love before but I'm ready to be, like, husband and wife.
This is an escort page.
This is her, right?
It's not fair for you to do this to me.
[Amanda] He's the first person that I've been with since the death of my husband.
I wanted you to be the right person.
But maybe we're just not right for each other.
[phone chimes]
There's a guy with his shirt off and you won't show me who it is. He's just a friend?
You liar. You lie.
I'm getting really worried.
Are you cheating on me?
-[bleep] you! -I'm done.
[Amanda] All right, let's say prayers.
And we thank you for everything in our lives that you have blessed us with.
Amen, good job.
Yeah, I think that would be nice.
[Amanda] All right.
My name is Amanda. I'm 31 years old.
I live in Eunice, Louisiana.
But I'm currently visiting my sister in Marietta, Ohio.
Okay, lay down.
I am.
Okay.
Earlier this year, I lost my husband, Jason, to his battle with cancer.
Jason and I were married eight years.
He was such a jokester.
Yeah!
He loved to make people laugh.
But he also took great care of us.
He was smart,
just a good guy with a good heart.
[imitating horse sounds]
Maddy, we're gonna go faster. Hang on!
We were best friends.
And I would have never expected a future without him.
Where you going?
But about a year ago, Jason started having lung problems.
He felt like he may have pneumonia or something, like, in his chest.
So they did x-rays, PET scans, CT scans.
You know, they didn't see anything but he was kind of telling them, like,
"No, I don't feel right. Something is wrong." And
maybe eight months after his first time going in,
Jason was diagnosed with stage four, terminal ampullary cancer.
The cancer was throughout his body.
And the doctor said,
best case scenario would be for him to live
three months with chemotherapy.
Jason just kind of...
He just, like, looked at me, but, like, he didn't cry or anything.
I felt, like, even in that moment, like,
he was trying to be strong.
And then, three days later, he was so weak.
I ended up forcing him to go in to the hospital.
And only ten days after his diagnosis,
I was looking at him, and...
just kind of seeing, like...
Like... You know... Like...
his life leave his eyes.
And he was gone.
[sniffles]
I waited, I think, three days to tell my kids.
You know, I told them, like,
Daddy passed away.
He's in heaven, and...
My son said, "When will Daddy be back from heaven?"
And Alina, she said, "You can't come back from heaven."
And...
I just hugged them.
Ay!
It's been so hard without him.
But having my kids helped me.
Because I have to
take care of them and be there for them.
[kisses]
I love you.
When Jason was sick,
he had told me he wanted me to
find love again and move on.
You know, he was like, it's not fair for you to live your life alone.
Also, like, the kids need someone in their lives.
And that it wasn't fair,
like, to him, if I-- You know, if I didn't-- If I just lived my life,
you know, not finding love again.
And, of course, you know, I didn't expect to.
After Jason passed away, I tried to keep occupied and busy.
So I definitely watched a lot of social media videos.
It was just an escape from everything going on in the real world.
One night, my friend was doing a live stream challenge on TikTok.
My friend kept winning and the guy who lost was being so silly.
And I was like, oh, he's cute.
On TikTok, you can pay to send people gifts.
So I sent him a rose.
Which is worth, like, less than a dollar.
Later that day, he sent me a private message.
Over the next couple days, we messaged back and forth
and before I knew it, we were talking on the phone every day and night.
And I was just completely opening up to him.
And then, I think I, like, send him a photo or something of me and he was like,
"I want you to be only mine."
And so it kinda, like, just went from there.
Razvan is 26 years old.
He lives in Bucharest, Romania.
He is a model, singer and social media entertainer.
Sorry.
I told Razvan really early on that I was a widow.
And he truly has been someone that I can lean on.
And he has talked me through some of my worst days.
Giddyup!
[Amanda] He makes me laugh all the time,
he's silly and kind of, like, a little bit dorky.
[Razvan] Look how beautiful.
That's amazing.
[Amanda] He is super sweet and
he's just one of those people that will do anything for someone he loves.
We've been together for four months.
Every morning when I wake up, he'll have, like, messages waiting for me.
Babe, why you don't answer me?
I just wanna say I love you so much and call me when you wake up.
Bye.
I do feel some guilt
being with Razvan so soon after my husband's death.
I know that he could never replace Jason.
But we started to form this really deep connection.
So in a few days, I am travelling to Romania
to meet Razvan in person for the first time.
It's really a tricky thing to navigate.
How do you move on?
And it's not just myself, I have to think about the kids.
I don't want my kids to think, like,
I'm with someone else, you know? And
that I don't love their dad anymore.
Because I do.
I mean, I never thought that I would meet someone so quickly.
It's like we just kind of got caught up in this whirlwind of, like, emotions.
And we're like, "I love you so much."
I've never even meet him in person.
And to say these things is crazy.
But...
I just feel in my heart that we are meant to be and it will work itself out.
♪ Keep, keep on going ♪
♪ Know just what to do ♪
Yeah, this one's dark and natural.
-Yeah, that looks good quality. -Yes.
And we can also take brown and combine the two.
How do you like my new hair?
I think it's a great look.
[laughing]
♪ Yow! That's right ♪
The tape-ins, you can wear them at night,
-and all the time, right? -Yes.
Okay.
I'm Gino, I'm 53 years old. And I'm from Canton, Michigan.
And you said, this is, like,
human hair, I think?
100% human hair.
Oh, yeah.
-Maybe I should get a picture for her to see it. -Okay.
I'm here to pick something up for my fiance.
But I don't know, really, anything about hair extensions.
How much does something like this cost?
This box alone is $320.
That's a lot of money.
How many do you think a woman would need?
I would say five, to be safe.
Holy [bleep].
Well, maybe I can buy, like, one sample.
I hope she doesn't think I'm gonna buy all the hair.
[laughs]
I'm not one to buy a lot of materialistic things.
I just don't go spending, spending, spending.
But my fiance? Now she's a different story.
[laughs]
See what kinda response-- Oh, oh. She's writing.
Oh.
Jasmine pushes me to my limit sometimes.
But there's not a lot I wouldn't do for her.
She's a feisty, passionate Latina.
And she's the love of my life.
[Gino] I've met Jasmine over two years ago.
And she lives in Panama.
Her beauty and sexiness drew me in.
But her dynamite personality,
that's what really did it for me.
So after nine months of talking online,
I booked a trip to Panama to meet her in person.
That's risky, right?
[laughing] I guess I am adventurous.
Boo! Look at you!
Jasmine!
[both laughing]
Who's my little baby?
[both laughing]
We had super amazing moments together.
You're so hot and sexy.
[laughs]
But we've also had some rough times too.
One of your exes sent me a message.
Did you send her naked pictures of me?
[shouting] That was part of my privacy!
How can you do that?
[bleep]
[Gino] Me sending nude photos to my ex
really pushed our relationship to the edge.
But Jasmine and I have a very strong bond.
It would take a lot to break it.
I love you.
Jasmine.
Will you marry me?
Of course, yes.
[both laugh]
Leaving Jasmine in Panama was one of the hardest things I've had to do.
So as soon as I got home,
I filed the K-1 visa to bring Jasmine to the United States.
But, you know, it's taken a long time to process.
We're at, like, 12 months.
So that makes Jasmine frustrated,
because she wants to be with me now. And it causes friction between us.
You know, we get in a lot of arguments.
And Jasmine and I being apart have kinda made things worse.
So I have a trip planned to Panama in a few days.
And I think we both definitely need it.
I'm excited because I get to show off some of my new clothes to Jasmine.
You know, I got better shirts.
Jasmine did not like the clothes that I used to wear.
So I realized I definitely needed to upgrade.
Last time I went and seen Jasmine,
these wear the hats that I wore.
This is what I upgraded to.
Look at the difference.
There's a lot riding on this trip.
We have a lot of good times together, but
we argue about a lotta stuff.
Like finances and our sexual issues.
Hopefully this will be my last trip to Panama before our visa gets approved.
And if Jasmine and I can't work out our issues while I'm there,
then I'm gonna have a lot of concerns
about bringing her to the USA.
[doctor in Spanish]
[Jasmine speaking]
My name is Jasmine. I'm 35 years old.
And I'm the whole package, you know?
[in Spanish]
Oh, my God.
I'm a perfectionist.
I like to look and feel perfect.
[in Spanish]
Hmm.
[in English]
our sex was so good.
But he has visited me other times since then, and
he barely wants to have sex anymore.
And when we do have sex, he can't even finish.
[laughs]
[in Spanish]
[in English] I love Gino so deeply, but...
I feel like we are growing more distant.
This trip that Gino is taking to Panama is our last chance.
Before I feel ready
to take that huge step
of moving to the United States.
[Jasmine in Spanish]
Violet is the woman of my dreams,
the love of my life.
I'm like super excited to come there.
-Just... -[Violet on phone] Oh...
I am not saying that word.
I don't say I love you
because there's something there with Violet
that she's just not telling me.
If I go there and everything goes great...
...and we'll get engaged. [laughs]
That's just crazy.
You guys have broken up and gotten back together
how many times already? X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:900000,LOCAL:00:00:00.000
[jazz music playing]
I'm Riley.
I'm 48 years old
and I live in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
I've been trying to rebuild my jazz collection.
I had over 20,000 albums.
But in 2000, I had a housefire and I lost everything.
I'm originally from Southside Jamaica, Queens.
And growing up in New York,
music was a big part of my life.
Um, I wasn't very popular growing up.
I was not the cool kid.
So it was my...
kind of my outlet, right, my thing.
And it just made me feel less alone.
This is jazz,
and then it goes into '70s soul and R&B.
And then it goes into the really obscure,
like Elton Johns and...
Because it's Elton John.
But my main thing is jazz.
You can tell.
I see colors, you know, when I hear music,
especially jazz, it's like a dance.
You know, that... that... that rhythm.
When you're listening to jazz, you gotta have this.
[scatting]
My cigars.
It's just fun.
When I play jazz music,
I light up a good cigar.
Yo, that's my... That's my world.
That's... that's the life. That's life.
Come on, Meesh.
Good Meesh.
This is Mila.
She's pulling, and she's very strong.
She's very strong.
I work in public safety for the US government.
And before that, I was in the military for eight years.
You know, with my job, the training that I received,
I have to think of the most insane thing
that could possibly happen
and how will we prepare for it.
They trained me to not let my guard down.
So I... I think it's very difficult for me
to not have it bleed into my... my personal life.
Good girl.
I try to be more trusting and let people in but I...
I always get hurt.
I was in a serious relationship with someone.
You know, one day I went to her apartment,
and she wouldn't open the door,
I was just ringing the bell
and felt it in me there was something up.
So I went straight to her bedroom
and there was a guy in the closet.
She met him through me.
It felt like a betrayal, like...
On another level of hurt.
A few years later,
I finally put myself out there again...
Come on.
...and then I met someone.
I really thought she was gonna be the one
I build my forever home with.
So I put a ring on layaway.
And I had every intension to ask her to marry me.
And then one day she said,
"Oh, I'm gonna go to Philly to get some stuff or whatever,"
and she just never came back.
Couple of phone calls here and there.
She gives me her reasons,
but they didn't make sense.
And, uh, that was it.
She was just gone.
Come on.
That was too much for me.
I was in a dark place.
And I was very, very lonely.
So, like, a couple of weeks later,
I downloaded a Vietnamese, uh, dating app.
My thought process is, "Hey, when it's nighttime here,
it's daytime there.
I can find somebody to talk to."
And then I met Violet.
♪ I caught you smiling ♪
[Riley] Violet is from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
And she is 43 years old.
♪ I swear That the world has stopped ♪
♪ For the beautiful smile I see ♪
[Riley] She's beautiful. I think she's beautiful.
She's... Like, she don't even look her age.
It is crazy.
And I felt like there was a connection.
Ever since then, we've just been chatting, you know,
and calling each other pretty much daily for two years.
Violet is... the sweetest jerk I've ever met in my life.
She is hilarious.
She's very clever
with her jokes.
She'll say something real slick.
It's like a joke grenade.
It'll take me like three seconds for it to explode.
I'd be like, "Hey, wait a minute."
I've never met Violet in person.
But now it's happening.
Come on, Meesh.
In a few days, I'm gonna be going to Vietnam for two weeks
to meet the woman of my dreams,
the love of my life.
I get to hold her, kiss her, touch her,
have those laughs together in person.
You know, after everything I've been through,
I really believe that
this could be a new beginning for me.
[line ringing]
[Riley] Hey, baby.
You look pretty.
Oh, thank you.
[Riley] You know what--
[Riley] Yeah. Oh, you're always ready? Oh, okay.
[both laughing]
It's only, like, a few more days.
Yeah.
Are you excited for me to come and visit?
[Violet on phone] Hmm.
[Riley] A... a little.
Uh, just a little bit, yeah.
[in other language] You.
[both laughing]
I'm like really, really, really super excited
to come near... I'm... I'm real happy.
-It's just... -[Violet on phone] Oh.
[both laughing]
I am not saying that word.
I don't say I love you.
I don't ever say I love you.
'Cause whenever I say I love you to a person, they leave.
I... I... I'm not saying the word but I'll say this.
Oh, yeah, with this. This.
It started because Violet told me
women in Vietnam mean the opposite of what they say.
So when she says she hates me,
it actually means I like you
or I care for you or whatever.
So she knows how I feel when I do this.
Really, it's just a sweet thing that we just do.
I think it's kind of cute, honestly.
But I care about Violet a lot.
But we've been through some ups and downs
over the last year or so.
And because of my past relationships and...
and, you know, unfortunately,
because of what I do for a living,
I might be just overly cautious.
But I just feel like there's something there with Violet
that she's just not telling me or she's not...
being as forthcoming as I would need her to be
on certain things.
[Violet speaking over phone] [laughs]
Becau... You don't know why I'm excited?
I swear I...
I think you're just messing with me.
I think you...
You're just as excited.
You just don't wanna show me anything.
[Violet on phone] Are you sure?
-[Riley] I'm positive. -[Violet laughing]
I know I am not the easiest person to understand.
There's a jungle up here.
There's a lot going on up there.
It just feels that Violet...
may just understand me.
After everything I've been through,
it's really hard for me to trust people,
but I have to go through with this.
I truly believe that she's worth the risk.
I... I... I'mma let you go. I know it's late there.
Get some rest. Have a good night, okay?
Okay.
Bye.
[chuckles softly]
[chuckles]
[Amber speaking]
I don't know. I'm literally so pale.
-First of all, have you ever gotten a spray tan? -Yes.
They don't turn out streaky or like...
[Amanda] I mean, it's been like a long time,
but I feel like spray tans have gotten better.
In a few days,
I am going to Romania
to meet my boyfriend, Razvan, in person for the first time.
So my sister, Amber, is taking me to get a spray tan
because I do not want
to get off the plane in Romania and
I want Razvan to see me and think,
"She looks toned, tanned and sexy."
[laughing]
[woman] All right.
So go ahead and undress there.
Now...
do you have any special occasion you're going to?
[Amanda] Yes. I'm going to see my boyfriend in Romania.
[woman] No kidding.
-That's exciting. [laughs] -[Amanda] I know. That's...
[laughs]
-[Amanda] It's the first time I'm ever meeting him, so... -[woman] Oh, okay.
-[Amanda] I feel like I need a little tan. -[woman] Okay. All right.
We're gonna start in the back.
[Amber] I think Amanda plays the strong role.
She doesn't really like to show how bad she's hurting.
And I don't think she is dealing with
the loss of her husband.
She's just trying to cover up a lot of grief,
and Razvan just happened to be right there at the right time.
Your new boyfriend is really going to like this.
[laughing]
-Okay, dear, go ahead and get dressed. -All right. Thank you.
Well, you know you don't have to go.
-You can always say no. -Oh, my gosh, stop it.
Like, I don't know, I just feel like...
Uh, this is all going so fast with you and him.
And at first, I thought this was just, like, a little fling,
-and it's turned into something... -[Amanda laughing]
...that I don't know if you're ready for.
You're still grieving a little bit,
going through some things.
There's no, like, standard set,
"Oh, you have to grieve for this long
and then you have to do this
and then you have to be alone."
-No, like... -I know there's no playbook on things like that
and I'm aware,
but that doesn't mean that it's okay to... to rush things.
You guys have broken up and gotten back together
how many times already?
Razvan and I have broken up
a few times throughout our relationship,
mainly because of his social media content.
He will flirt,
do stripteases.
I don't know, just crazy things.
He tells me it's just his job
and, like, it's like acting for him.
That's what he tells me.
But one time, he thought that I was sleeping
and he didn't expect me to be on his live stream.
Then suggested that this woman shower,
uh... with her clothes on and she had on a white T-shirt.
I don't think she was wearing a bra.
So I broke up with him because of that.
But each time, we always end up getting back together.
Obviously, I know we have problems,
'cause no relationship is perfect.
But I think he cares about me so much,
like we've gotten closer.
I feel like we're at a point that,
like, if I go there and everything goes great,
maybe he will propose
and we'll get engaged. [laughing]
[Amber sighs]
What?
Why are we talking about marriage
with a guy that you've never met?
Like, that... I don't know, that's crazy to me.
-It seems-- -Getting engaged and committing...
I don't think that's crazy. I mean...
Are you ready for that?
Yeah.
I don't think you are.
I will be at a loss for words,
um, if she comes back engaged. [chuckles]
They fight a decent bit
for being a... a fairly new relationship.
And I think this is really fast,
after the death of her husband.
She doesn't know herself.
She's always been a wife,
she's always been, you know, a mom.
She needs a little time to, like,
find herself again.
And I don't think she's gonna be able to do that,
jumping into another marriage.
I... I... I'm... I'm worried
that you don't genuinely care about him
and you're just trying to...
to cover this void that you have with... with Jason.
It's not like I was like,
going out looking for someone, no.
It's like you don't know what I feel
being like alone...
with the kids. [sighs]
Like, no one can know that
unless you had experienced it, you know?
I'm not just thinking of myself either.
You know what I mean?
Like...
I feel like... [sniffles]
Like, the kids need someone, too, you know?
-I know. -[Amanda sniffles]
Even like before I met Razvan, I was like,
thinking like, "How...
How am I gonna do it?
Like, how am I gonna raise the kids?"
And to be there and be everything that they need,
you know, I can't. [sniffles]
I can never fill that other role.
-[Amber] I know. -[Amanda sniffles]
[Amber] I just...
I don't want you getting hurt or anything.
That's all.
[sniffles]
[Tyray] My girlfriend's name is Carmella
and she lives in Barbados.
She looks like Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion combined. [laughs]
We do have, you know, naughty Snapchat sessions.
We send, like, sexy pictures, like, you know?

So it's pretty cool and relaxing.
My name is Tyray.
I am 33 years old.

I'm not a musician
but I did pick up the ukulele
because I noticed that everyone who plays it looks happy. [laughs]
I get along with everyone.
I like meeting new people.
I'm pretty outgoing,
and I'll talk a lot.
But I feel insecure sometimes, too,
because of my weight.
It's always been a struggle,
I've always been a big guy, um...
I would say I got big, like,
maybe when I was like, eight, nine, ten.
Uh, we had moved.
I didn't have a lot of friends there.
So food became a real comfort for me,
especially like chocolate, I love chocolate, so...
[laughs] That's like my best friend.
I feel like the insecurity for my weight
did prevent me from having a... a relationship.
I'm afraid to put myself out there 'cause of rejection.
So it's really embarrassing to admit where I'm like,
33 years old and still a virgin.
Five.

-Ten. You can take a break. -[Whitney sighs]
[Tyray] Family is everything to me.
My mom moved in with me about a year ago.
We are sharing a one-bedroom apartment,
so we're pretty cramped.
-How does it feel? Is it too tight? -Sore still.
-[Tyray] It's still sore? -Yeah.
Last year, my mom found out she had a tumor in her brain.
They removed the tumor and then the next day
the doctor called us to the hospital
and told us that she had a stroke.
-How's that? That hurt? -[Whitney] Yeah.
[Tyray] And then that shoulder?
I was in shock.
I didn't know what to do.
And, yeah, I was very afraid that I was gonna lose my mom.
Keep going.
Mom, are you ready to get back in those heels? [laughs]
-I do. -[Tyray] And start walking.
[Whitney] Tyray is a teddy bear.
He's a good guy.
I have two more sons and two daughters
but Tyray helps me out more than... than any of them.
We have a really good relationship. Mmm-hmm.
[Tyray] Come on, you got it. Good job.
I was a claims rep for a health insurance company.
But I actually ended up quitting my job
to take care of Mom full-time.
My father passed away when I was four years old.
He got into an argument with a friend at a park,
and, um, he was murdered.
My mom, she raised us all by herself.
Money was very hard.
We were homeless a few times.
My mom had to made a lot of sacrifices for us.
So I felt like, I owed her to actually say,
"Hey, you know, this is more important right now,"
to put what... what I wanted on the back-burner for her.
It's been really difficult.
Like, my social life is pretty much gone.
But honestly, I don't mind
'cause I do have Carmella.
My girlfriend's name is Carmella
and she's 27 years old.
And she lives in Barbados.
She is this hot, thick, beautiful woman.
This goddess.
Like, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion combined. [laughs]
Like, she has all that.
I met Carmella on an online dating site.
Me and Carmella chat every day about everything.
From like random stuff to our plan for the future.
We've been talking for almost four years now.
And I would describe it as, like, a soulmate connection.
Like, we're made for each other.
I've never been in love before
but this feeling I feel for Carmella is just...
Like, warm.
Almost like heartburn but like a good heartburn.
Carmella doesn't work right now.
But she is planning on, uh, going to school
and she does hair on the side.
When she talks about, like,
what she wants to do in the future,
like her goals and stuff,
like, that really makes me happy.
And like, her wanting to start a business and I'm like,
"You know, you can do it," you know, I'm pushing her
and being that... that support factor for her.
Carmella is the sweetest thing ever.
She gives me confidence, she makes me happy.
She's extremely emotionally supportive,
especially when my mom got sick.
So she was there for me.
I really appreciated that from her.
Right here, I was letting her know that I'm thinking of her.
And then she's letting me know
that I look like a teddy bear with facial hair. [chuckles]
So adorable.
Um...
We only communicate on Snapchat
but we do have, you know, naughty Snapchat sessions.
We do send, like, sexy pictures and video,
you know, the... [laughs]
You know, the booty. [laughs]
[producer] Is it ever over video or...
[Tyray] Uh, unfortunately not. [laughs]
She's never video chatted me.
[producer] Do you ever ask for a video chat yet?
Uh, no. I did once,
but, she didn't say anything. So I didn't really...
Uh, you know, I took it as a 'no'.
May be she's not comfortable.
Or maybe she doesn't like video chatting.
I know a lot of people don't.
I do plan on seeing Carmella soon.
Um, I'm just trying to see if I can find a flight
that's in my, um, small budget.
So, that's pretty much what I'm waiting for at this moment.
I'm excited to share, like, my cooking skills with someone,
other than my mom. [chuckles]
Carmella is my girlfriend right now.
But, um, hopefully soon, my wife.
We, kind of, discussed, like, getting engaged.
And I showed her, like, rings one day when I went to the jewelry store.
And she was like, you know, I'm ready to, like, be a wife and stuff.
So I wanna propose, because,
after four years of dating,
I feel like, Carmella is the one for me.
Even though we didn't meet yet,
the emotion is there with us, and it's like,
I don't want to let something like that go
Dinner's ready.
-[Whitney] Dinner's ready? -Yeah.
-I've made you some salmon and some vegetables. -Oh, wow.
-[Tyray] Hope you like it. -I will.
I've kept Carmella a secret,
because I don't want my family to judge me.
It just seems like, it's something that, a lot of people won't understand.
-There's bones in there. So be careful. -Oh, okay.
-I just swallowed one. -Uh-oh.
[Tyray] All my sisters have kids.
My brothers, they're all like, in relationships.
So, I do wanna be on their level.
I want the normal life, white picket fence, and...
a happy family.
Before I go up to Barbados,
I do wanna tell my family about Carmella.
They have to know how deep I'm in love with her.
I want them to like, feel the love that I have for Carmella.
I put myself in the back burner a lot.
And I feel like, I can finally
look at myself and say, "You know, it's time for you".
My time, finally.
[Jasmine] I'm so sick and tired.
When we are having sex,
it is so difficult for you to [bleep].
When we fight, I lose my desire.
But the biggest issue is Jasmine doesn't put any of the blame on herself. X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:900000,LOCAL:00:00:00.000
[Gino humming]
I'm getting ready to see Jasmine in a few days.
And I have so many things to do.
On top of packing and getting ready
for a long trip to Panama,
I'm also juggling a new full time job
as a automotive engineer.
[whispers] Uh, okay.
Being employed has helped me, as far as, like,
being able to support Jasmine more.
But, Jasmine gets a little upset that I can't talk to her as much,
um, because, I... you know, before when I wasn't working,
I could talk to her throughout the entire day, more or less.
[device rings]
Okay.
[device rings]
Jasmine. How you doing?
[chuckles]
Yeah, I got a new hat.
Do you like it?
Uh, yeah.
[chuckles nervously]
[giggles]
I don't know if you can see, but I got new shorts, too.
Can you see?
[Jasmine gasps]
[laughs] No. I don't do that stuff.
[laughs]
Well, you know...
it's coming up to the day, I get to go out and see you, again.
[Jasmine] I just been wondering, you know...
Yeah.
Unfortunately, it's the same news.
But, uh, we're getting close.
I think within the next 30 days, we should get approval.
[Jasmine] I kept moving from
one temporary apartment to the other,
believing that my visa is gonna get approved any time soon.
But then, it doesn't get approved.
And I have to move again.
He insisted on doing all by himself,
since he wanted to save money.
But now, it's a huge disruption to my life,
to have to keep moving.
So, baby, this is the deal.
And there is a place where I wanna be.
Per month?
Yeah.
That's crazy.
You said that the visa is gonna get approved in 30 days.
So it's gonna be the last month I'm gonna be living in my country.
And I wanna live like a queen.
I deserve it.
Don't you think, maybe we could try a one bedroom place?
[Jasmine] And, we need that privacy.
Since, when we are having sex...
What?
To [bleep] . To ejaculate.
-How do you say that in English? -Yeah, I...
We have sexual problems because we do it... we argue a lot still.
And that's a big problem.
-Um-- -[Jasmine speaking]
No, no, no, no.
I'm super attracted to Jasmine.
She beautiful, gorgeous.
But when we argue and fight,
I lose my, uh, desire.
But the biggest issue is, I feel like,
Jasmine doesn't put any of the blame on herself.
She needs to like, take it more seriously.
Otherwise, it doesn't make me confident.
You know, about our future.

Now you do sound very confident
about how all of this is gonna go.
Uh, are there any doubts that you've had along the way?
[automated voice speaking]
[Mark] Even if we do care about them,
sending support like that, it's tough, if it's a lot of money.
[Mark] This idea of traveling half way across the world,
it almost sounds like it's,
coming out of a fairy tale in his mind.
This true love story that can have no bad ending.
But it's a little worrisome
that, uh, somebody's just sending money half way across the world
to this person that they don't know all that well.
It's very rare that anything like that could work out, but...
Who knows, fairy tales can come true.
Well, if you love her a lot, it sounds like it's worth it.
[automated voice] Yeah, I am 100% ready to go.
[automated voice speaking]
Hey, babe.
[Amanda] Well, I just saw the trailer for that movie.
And I did not like it.
[Razvan] You know...
-Oh, so artistic. -[Razvan speaking]
You can't control what I do in my job. X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:900000,LOCAL:00:00:00.000
[Jr. imitates roar]
Settle down.
[Jr. speaking]
[Aleena speaking]
When I hear of people meeting other people online,
and falling madly in love,
I kind of, roll my eyes a little,
like, "Oh, yeah. Sure".
But, it happened to me.
Razvan has opened my heart again to love,
which I never thought would happen,
after losing my husband.
But, I feel so in love with him,
that in three days, I am traveling
all the way to Romania, to give this man a kiss.
You're doing it.
Look at me.
Oh, yeah. So huge.
They're not really huge, yet.
I just started.
I am super excited.
But, a part of me does have some guilt,
because I'm leaving my children.
[Aleena speaking]
Um, mommy is gonna be gone...
three weeks.
No.
-Do you know, how like, when I video call Razvan? -Mmm-hmm.
Mommy is gonna be with Razvan
-and you guys are gonna be at home. -[Jr.] Mommy!
[Amanda] Razvan and my kids talk often.
He plays with them on video chat.
He dresses up in costumes.
But, I am scared to tell my children,
that I am in another serious relationship,
until I am 100% sure,
that Razvan and I are gonna be together.
Shake off all the crumbs. Like this.
Because, if we broke up,
it's another man in my children's lives that...
won't be there.
[sniffles]
All right. Let's go.
[Jr. exclaims happily]
[cell phone ringing]
Hey, babe.
-[Amanda] How is your day going? -Yeah, well, it's good.
-[Amanda] Aw. You look good. -[Razvan speaking]
[Amanda] Ready for what?
-[both chuckle] -I know, I'm just kidding, yes, I am excited.
[Razvan] So, listen, uh...
-[chuckles softly] -[Razvan] I...
[laughing] Oh, my gosh, what?
[Amanda laughing]
[Razvan laughing]
[Amanda speaking]
-It needs a lot of work. -[continues laughing]
[Amanda] So, what's the plan when I get there?
[Razvan speaking]
It's about,
you know, love, and...
[Razvan] And...
No, there will not be.
[Razvan speaking]
I tell you I'm not jealous but you know that I am jealous.
You, you can't con-- control what I do in, in my job.
Razvan does a little bit of everything in entertainment.
He's been acting in theater for years
and recently, he is trying to get more work in films and start his music career.
I already feel jealous that all of his followers on social media
are women, just drooling over him all of the time.
But my jealousy goes to another level
when I see his acting roles.
[music playing]
[Amanda] I know that it's really hard to make it as an actor,
and, in the meantime, he needs to make a living,
but I am a little bit insecure
about some of the things that I may have to deal with.
I just saw the trailer for that movie you did
and I did not like it.
[Razvan] You know...
-[Amanda] Oh, so artistic. [laughs] -[Razvan] Like...
[Jr. speaking indistinctly]
-Yes? -[Jr. whispering]
[Amanda] No more candy, you had enough candy.
Tell Razvan what you think his job is.
[Jr. speaking]
-[laughing] -[Razvan] Yeah, this is why I'm so strong
and I have big muscles.
[Jr. speaking]
-[Amanda laughing] -[Razvan] I have bigger muscles than you.
[Jr. speaking]
[Razvan speaking]
In the future or...
How do you think...
Like, you will be as-- That other adult, like, in their lives.
Like, do you think you're ready for that?
Yeah, but it's not only about playing with them, though.
You have to take care of them, like, help them, guide them...
[Razvan] No, listen...
[Amanda] I think Razvan and I do have a future together
but it's confusing for me
because I've never been with anyone other than Jason.
I am looking for a person that I can lean on
and that's there for me, there for my children.
But there is still a lot that I don't know about Razvan and...
I just really hope that he can be the partner that I need
for me and the kids.
So, you don't know if she's divorced?
Violet was lying about her being divorced
at the time we started talking.
She took it upon herself to hide the truth from me.
And there's one other thing... X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:900000,LOCAL:00:00:00.000
["Reckless Boy" playing]
♪ Yeah, I was rich ♪

[Riley] I'm leaving for Vietnam in a few days
to meet my girlfriend, Violet.
She is funny,
she is absolutely stunning
and I can't believe, after two years,
I'm finally able to go and meet her for the first time in person.
My friends, they are holding a Juneteenth celebration.
So, I offered to go over a little early to help them set up.
[Shawn] What's up, boo?
[Tiffanie] You're here for the Juneteenth?
-[Shawn] Juneteenth. -[Tiffanie] Juneteenth.
[Shawn] You're late.
[Tiffanie] You're very late, you're supposed to help us with watering.
-[Riley] I have things to do. -You got things to do?
-Oh! -[Riley] It's all fallin' down.
Thank you.
[Riley] I have known Shawn for, about, 30 years
and I consider him a big brother.
Tiffanie is Shawn's wife
and she is very vocal about her feelings.
But they're my family
and their opinions really do matter to me.
[Tiffanie] You're just so busy?
[Riley] Yeah, I'm just preparing for the, the trip.
-[Tiffanie] You're really going? -Yeah.
I have really strong feelings for her.
I, I'm going there because I wanna meet her in person, see if we click.
I don't see the big deal.
-[thuds] -Even if--
-[Riley] Now, see that's-- -The ancestors just
-said that it's a big deal. -[laughing]
The anc-- Look what the ancestors just said.
[Shawn] Oh, shaka, laka, laka.
-[Shawn and Tiffanie laughing] -The ancestors just said it.
Riley is very spontaneous.
Um, you never know what you're gonna get with him.
I mean, right after the last girlfriend,
I mean, he, he goes on a dating app
and he meets Violet
a week later.
-That's concerning, that's concerning. -That is concerning.
[Tiffanie] God forbid, she breaks his heart,
this might be, like, a nail in a coffin.
It's been, like, almost two years.
-I mean, we built a rapport. -You built what rapport?
-[Riley] I asked-- -Did you send her money?
No.
-Listen, I sent... -Here we go, come on, let it-- Hmm.
-...her daughter... -[Tiffanie] Oh.
...$100 for her 16th birthday.
That's all I sent.
[Shawn] And how many, how many kids she have?
-Two. -You're going to step-father
-at this time? You're ready for that? -I feel that I am.
Violet has two daughters,
one is 20, the other is 16.
Violet and I have spoke about marriage
and bringing her over here, bringing her daughters over here.
I actually have a great relationship with them and...
[laughs]
-So, do you love her? -[Riley] Yes.
It's just, I don't like saying the word.
But I'm bringing a ring.
[Tiffanie] A ring?
It's more like a promise ring
because once I [stutters] get all the answers I need
and we can get past what we need to get past,
I think, she might be the one.
-Like, like what? -[Tiffanie] So, like, what?
[Riley] Uh, for example...
So, you don't know if she's divorced?
She told me later, like, three months in,
that, "Oh, by the way, my divorce was just finalized."
But it was three months in, after I asked her multiple times.
Violet was lying about her being divorced
at the time we started talking.
I asked very direct questions
and she took it upon herself to hide the truth from me
and that's what my concern is.
And there's one other thing, like,
she was so adamant that I come off the dating app
and I did it
and when this whole thing blew up,
I went just to check and see if she was still on it and she was.
[Riley] I, I--
[Tiffanie] So, what did she say about the fact
that you saw her still on the app?
-[Riley] She said-- -She probably said why were you looking, right?
'Cause you're supposed to be off that, but anyway...
What did she say? That's what she said?
-She said that. -[Tiffanie] See, that's the game.
That is the game, man.
[Riley] After I found out that Violet was still on the dating app,
we hit a really rough patch, just arguing a lot.
And even though we did resolve these things,
there's still that little bit in me that I'm just not sure I believe her.
But, at the end of the day, I put that all aside,
I chalk it up to miscommunication,
or cultural misunderstandings.
I, I know you guys love me and you have concerns, if she's worth it,
but I really believe that she can be the one.
I've been through a lot in the last four, five years
and, to me, Violet represents the possibility of building something great.
So, if I fly half-way around the world
and find out that I was wrong about everything,
I'll be broken.
[Shawn] I just hope you know
-what you're doing, man. -I really do, too.
I have good news...
-[laughing] -[Dane] Fantastic.
So, will it be awkward, you know, if I bump into Gino?
[Jasmine speaking]
He's the last person I dated... X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=MPEGTS:900000,LOCAL:00:00:00.000
[Jasmine] Yesterday, my sister, Liz, and I moved into a new apartment.
Finally, Gino agreed to pay for...
But I didn't tell Gino how I found the place.
[both laughing] Hi.
How are you?
-[Jasmine] How are you? -Good, good to see you.
-[Jasmine] Yes, you always look so good. -[Dane] How have you been?
You look fantastic as well, love the nails.
[laughing]
[Jasmine speaking]
Um, he's handsome, he's rich, I mean [laughs] he has so many good qualities.
I have good news.
-Tell me, please. -Because...
-[laughing] -[Dane] Fantastic.
I'm excited, we're gonna be neighbors.
-[Jasmine] Right? -That'd be good.
-Yeah. -We can cook together.
Yeah, or you can teach me to cook.
-[laughing] -[Dane] Um...
How have you been?
Uh, very busy and stressed.
That, you know, my fiance is, you know,
-is coming in a few days. -Yeah.
And, um...
So, does that mean that Gino will be living in the building as well?
Yes, for three weeks, we're gonna be all neighbors.
-[laughing] Happy neighborhood. -Wow.
So, will it be awkward, you know, if I bump into him there?
Um...
[Jasmine speaking]
He is the last person I dated before Gino.
We were together just for a short period of, of time
and Dane is a good guy and he's handsome.
I need someone that is gonna give me that fire, you know?
We stayed friends since the break up
but Gino doesn't know anything about Dane.
It's not that we are doing anything wrong,
-I mean, we are just two friends. -Yeah.
[Jasmine] But...
Because the thing is, like, you know, like...
-[Dane] Sure. -[Jasmine] And last year...
-Yeah. -...he did something very bad to me.
-I sent him, because I trusted... -[Dane] Yeah.
...some topless pictures of me.
Sure.
And he sent those to his ex-girlfriend
to make her jealous.
Wow.
[Dane] Yeah.
[Jasmine] Like...
Losing my job was a big blow for me
because being a teacher was a huge part of my identity.
But now with our livelihood and just me waiting for this visa,
I feel like I totally depend on Gino
and that really makes me feel stuck in life, in everything.
Yeah, I only...
You have no idea, like, the arguments that we have.
Well, it's a terrible thing to do, I don't know what to say.
How did you get through it?
[Jasmine] I haven't...
Yeah.
[Jasmine speaking]
But I am devoted, babe.
-[Dane] Yeah. -When I love someone,
I, I love hard.
I don't... I don't mean this personally about Gino 'cause I don't know him but...
You don't wanna, kind of, force anything, I don't think, like.
If you're gonna spend your life together, that's a long time.
I don't know, I think you're fantastic,
any man would be lucky to have you.
So...
You know, don't settle for something
that's not up to what you want for yourself.
I'm nervous for her.
[Amber] I just hope she knows the difference
between filling a void and what's real.

I have palm sweat, armpit sweat, [laughs]
everything, I am so excited.
I am getting some things for my kids,
a little stuffed animal...
I got them little cards.
I put in here a little...
So, we all, like, have three that go together.
This will be the first time that I will be away from my children
since their Dad has passed away.
Hey, come here, I'll hold you.
And I just want them to know that I love them
and I'm gonna miss them.
[Amanda] A little doggy.
You're welcome.
Oh, I'm gonna miss you too much. [kisses]
[Jr. speaking]
Yeah, look, they go together, like a family.
This one's Aleena's,
Momma's
and yours.
Aw, look how nice.
I love it.
[kisses]
-[Amanda] Amber, you ready? -[Amber] Yeah.
I got it, you go ahead.
My sister is taking me to the airport today
and we're meeting my aunt there
so my kids can go back home with her.
[Amanda] Get buckled up.
[Amanda] I don't think that it hit me up until now
how hard it is gonna be to leave them.
But, in life, you don't get this love very often,
so, I would be a fool to not open my heart to it and take the chance.
[Amanda chuckles]
[Aleena] Mom, let's go!
[Amanda] We are going to...
There's, like, some castles.
Okay!
Well, I'm excited for you.
Yeah, but I don't know what to expect though.
I'm just, like, nervous.
[Amanda] Uh...
I will just, like, sleep on the couch.
[Amanda chuckling]
-Where did that come from? -[Amanda chuckling] I don't know.
With Jr. and Aleena losing their father,
that makes the stakes that much higher
on making sure that the next man that comes into our lives...
will [voice shaking] not leave.
And he's the right one.
[gasps] Oh, my gosh!
[Amanda speaking]
[Aleena] Hey, give me that!
I'm nervous for her, it's, it's a long trip.
It could be the fairytale ending that she's hoping it'll be,
you know, the happily ever after, but...
I just hope she knows the difference
between filling a void and what's real.
Give Mommy a hug.
Oh!

[Tyray] Hello. [titters]
[Tyray] Oh, okay.

Tyray, we've learned some information about Carmella that we need to let you know.
Okay.

if you decide that you don't wanna keep filming,
let me know and, also, if you decide after we talk
that you don't want us to use any of the footage

-Okay. -[David] Okay.
[David] Um...
We've learned Carmella has not been honest with you about who she is.
Like, about what?
[David] The person you've been messaging with
for the last several years,
is not the same woman in the pictures and videos.
Like, at all, like...
Do you guys know who it is or, like, is it...
There's a lot that we don't know
but after you gave us Carmella's number, we reached out
and it took a while but, eventually, we made contact.
We talked to them for a bit
and the person admitted that they're not
who they've been telling you that they are.
So, the person you've been match-- messaging with...
is a man.
Wow.

And if all goes well, then I'll just move there.
She's not aware.

But his family might not approve of me
because of my past.
You haven't told them that I'm here in Israel?
No. They're not going to like you...
Do they know that I exist?
People would describe me as the life of the party, for sure.
But I'm really look for somebody that I wanna spend the rest of my life with.
And even though I've never met her before, with Cleo, I may have found that.
But she is really different from women that I've dated in the past.
You wanna come closer?
I just can't. There's too many people.
It's not about me being shy.

I'm just desperate to meet this person, but what if
they don't show up?
