How’d you grow in this whole situation?
- What did you learn, buddy?
- Yeah.

- Like, yoga?
- My mental capacity has been pulled.
But I learned to be more choosy when I just approach somebody.
So, you know, if I’m gonna, like, walk up
to a girl at a bar and just, like, holler at her,
I’m gonna be like, hey, you look good, but who are you?
- You can’t get--
you can’t get too deep at a bar, though.
- Oh, no. - I was about to say...
[laughter]
I would love to see how that goes.
- I’m not gonna, like--
- Like, tell me all about yourself.
- I’m not gonna interrogate her.
But it’s also like, be a little bit more mindful.
Because if you’re just talking about the physical part,
that’s all it’s gonna be is physical.
- Yeah.
- And I’ve been in so many relationships
where that’s all it’s been is the physical.
- So how long did it take you to, like,
realize that--you know, was it, like, instantaneously?
- Our lifestyles are very different.
- Well, you guys did have some things that
were definitely compatible.
- Like, if we look at the surface level things,
like, we both drive Toyotas.
We both live in the same building.
We both like steak.
- Do what?
- No, no, no.
- Just watching them, like when we went out
to like group dinners and stuff,
like, the energy was good between them.
So I understand what you’re staying.
- I agree with what you’re saying.
There were are things there that you guys did click on.
- Just nothing...
I mean, we gave it a fair shot and stuck in all the way
through to the end of Decision Day.
- That wasn’t-- that wasn’t easy.
- It’s not easy.
I mean, marriage takes some damn work.
Like, people that haven’t been married, it’s hard.

- I know.
I’m like, oh, that’s so precious.

So I think that’d be something fun we can do,
something active.
And, you know, that’s a good way for us to meet people too.
- Yeah.
I think that could be a really fun way
also for us to pick up a new hobby.
- Well, and I was thinking, like--well,
this is a different topic.
But I was just thinking back to like, you know,
I got to go to New York to see your friends

So I was thinking, like, it’d be cool for us
to plan a trip to Chicago.

I think you have the rooster.
I think Cole is the chicken and Chris is the rooster.
And then he named chickens after everyone else.
There’s a Clint, Gina, Dom, Mack, Airris,
Jasmine, Kirsten, and Shaq.
And every morning Cole goes and chest bumps Chris
through the chicken coop.
- Maybe when we leave here we should do a chest bump.

It’s soft grass.
- No, but--
- We have so much travel to look forward to,
and I think it’s really nice to have someone
to do those travels with.
Because traveling alone isn’t as much fun.
And I know you’ve mentioned you’ve driven
to Florida before with the dogs,
but the drive was miserable alone.
So-- - No.
I mean, yeah, I made that drive last year
and it was horrible by myself.
It was just me and the two-- me and both dogs and--
- You have me now. - --it was bad.
But the big, big thing is just getting all moved in.
I’m excited, though, to kind of set everything up

I didn’t, but I almost bought a giant magnifying glass
the other day that has no purpose
except to be decorative. - What?
A giant magnifying glass? - I don’t know why.
I don’t know why, but I kept looking at it.
I was like, I need this in my home.
We need this in our home.
- I’m not surprised at all with Nicole wanting
to buy a huge magnifying glass that
serves no purpose other than to just be sitting on a table.
She’s all about those kind of frivolous things.
I’m just a little more practical of things
than she is.
You shouldn’t be too stingy on things.
But, like, also have common sense.
Like, you just gotta think about that kind of stuff.
- We should be going to these home décor shops together.
Because, left to my own devices,
I see things like a giant magnifying glass--

- I’m like, oh, I need this.
If I’m ever like, hey, I’m gonna go pick up
some things at the store, don’t let me go alone.
Just take the initiative and be like,

Right now, I’m actually going through a divorce.
And so I’m moving forward and kind of, like,
processing all of that and putting that behind me.
Like, I do want to be married,
and I do want to have children.
But I’m not just rushing to get into another relationship
or rushing to get into the dating scene.
- Absolutely.
You know, sometimes you have to allow your issues,
challenges, circumstances to fuel you,
but in a positive way.
So not like I’m just going to boss up on him
and like show him why he is--what he’s missing.
Of course, that and--
- And--
- And, like, what could--how could this
make you a better person? - Right.
- Right?
When you think about, of course,
going through the divorce, what are some things
that will be important to the workplace?
As an example, maybe you could have been more articulate.
Maybe you could have been managing expectations
a little bit more. - Yeah.
- Anything that comes out to you?
- Definitely my expectations and my communication skills.
- Mm-hmm.
- Because sometimes I didn’t always express how I feel
or, you know, value somebody else’s opinion
on how they’re feeling.
- Yeah.
- Because once I said something, like,
I was done talking.
But, like, I learned to talk through situations
and kind of give more of an explanation for that person
to understand.
- So, you know, moving forward, I think those are some things
that I can support you with doing so that you can be
concrete with what you’re looking for,
and then knowing how to explain, like,
this is why we need this.
Really show up as this investor,
professional that the world needs.
- And that’s everything that I’m looking for right now.
Like, how can I better myself overall?
- Mm-hmm.
It’ll help you leverage your career, you know,
move forward, make more money.
- Right.
- And then, as you begin to explore dating again,
it could definitely benefit as well.
- I agree.
A little bit is just, like, taking that leap of faith
and just stepping out on faith.

is dating.
I can’t sit at home and twiddle my thumbs

I mean, hey.
- OK. Are you attracted to me?
- I’m very attracted to you. - OK. Good.
- I feel like that was a horrible question.
You asking me that question kind of hurt my feelings.
Do you know you’re a gorgeous girl?
- OK.
[laughs] OK.
I just know that after being in a relationship of words
with no action, and then no physical touch,
and then, like, not really much quality time,

It depends.

Maybe that’s cheap for a couch.
I don’t know.

then I’d be willing to spend more money.
Because it’s a lot more money now,

- My current couch at home was only $300.
So mine and Nicole’s spending habits definitely differ.

we’re working towards the same plan.

- Ooh, she’s older.
- You’re older? - Mm-hmm.
- How old are you? - 35.
- 35? When’s your birthday?
- May 1st.
- OK.
- So I’m, like, exactly a year and a month.
I mean, I will say, like,
when we first all met to go to the airport,
I did notice you first. [chuckles]
- Yeah.
- I was like, oh.
- I mean, I feel like we’ve shared a few looks.
- Looks?
Yeah.
- I definitely--yeah.
I don’t know.
I just wasn’t as attracted to Dom.
- As me. I get it.
- As you. There we go.
[laughter]
- But I expected you guys to go through
with at least the process.
I know that wasn’t your idea.
- Yeah. I was surprised too.
Like, I was very surprised.
It was just, like, a couple of things
here and there that she didn’t like.
I wasn’t funny. I wasn’t this.
And then--
- I think the biggest thing was,
are you even wanting to stay here?
- I just took an offer full-time in Michigan.
- You’re moving back?
- I’m moving back.
- When is that taking place?
- I’ll be back in Michigan Sunday night.
I’m still waiting-- - So you’re moving now.
- Yeah. I’m, like, in the midst of it.

- OK. - Oh.
- Love that for you. - I love that.
- Me too.
- Thanks, friends.
- So familiar friend boy but new--
- Familiar friend boy.
- --new to--
- New to--
- New to new Jas.
- New to new Jas. Yes.
- Well, lucky--lucky for him.
Because old Jas was wonderful, and new Jas
seems to be even better.
- Yes.
- So how you guys all been?
You guys been going on any dates?
- Oh! There it is.
Nice catch.
- I was just on a date.
- How was that?
- Well, she’s got, like, blonde-red hair.
And she’s like, "I dated a redhead before
and people thought we were siblings."
- Oh, jeez.
- I was like, people date all the time
that have the same hair color.
But it’s nice to at least just get back out there--
- Yeah.
- --you know, knock the rust off the game.
- I wouldn’t expect nothing less from you, Clint.
- Yeah.
Going full throttle all the time.
- Nice.
[upbeat music]

Dom, what you been doing?
- Oh, you’re gonna love this.
- OK.
Hit me with it.
- I--I have a FaceTime chat with Gil.
We’re-- - Wait.
For real?
- OK. - No, you did not.
- Yes, I do.
- Gil?
- He--he seems very patient.
He has a good sense of humor, very easygoing.
- Yeah.
And the girl he was with--ooh, let me stop.
[laughter]
- I can’t wait to get--
- I’m so excited for that.
- I’m excited about this conversation.
- And he lives in Houston? - Yeah.
He lives in Houston.
- Oh.
- It’s interesting, because Gil doesn’t live in Nashville.
And with Mack, this is literally the one thing
that she couldn’t stop focusing on,
like, that he has no roots in Nashville,
has no intentions of staying,
that he was just here to try it out.
So it just doesn’t make sense.
- You look so beautiful picking these sunflowers.
[laughter]
Since we don’t have husbands to buy us sunflowers anymore.
- I know. Right?
- You don’t need husbands to buy you sunflowers.
- That’s right. We don’t.
- My friend boy buys me sunflowers.
- There you go, friend boy coming in hot
with the flowers.
- Speaking of husbands, do y’all think your husbands
are dating and back on the scene?
I’m not concerned, but I don’t know
if Shaquille is dating anyone.
- I feel like he’s got a lot going on.
- Yeah.
- I mean, he couldn’t even date me.
So--
- Oh, OK.
[laughter]
- You know, so let alone--
- Well--
- --date any other woman, honey.
If you didn’t have time for me, you shouldn’t
have time for anyone. - Oh.
- Oh, OK.
- OK.
- I’m sure Airris sends plenty of, "Hey, big head," texts.
- Yeah.
I feel like big head got a resurgence after--
- Big head was resurfaced.
- --Decision Day.
- I’m sure he did.
- So have you had any sex since D-day?
- I--I have, as a matter of fact.
I’ve had sex.
- Good for you, man. - Good for you.
- Yeah.
God, it was amazing after two months.
I mean, you had to--
I had to call up NASA to clear, like, a rocket launch,
’cause my God.
[laughter]
- Was it hard for you to go two months without getting any?
- Yeah.
Oh, my God.
It was nice to get back in the--in the saddle
and, you know, roll around a little bit.
- Did you do your moves while you
were in--like, the Go, Clint?
- Oh, yeah. Yeah.
There was all kinds of, like, doing the worm and--
- OK. [laughter]
- You know, it’s like, my pelvis became detached.
[laughter]
It was amazing.
It was passionate.
And it’s all the things that you want in a sexual endeavor.
- No, not dating.
Just--just had--had some sex.
- I definitely feel you.
I didn’t--I didn’t wait too long either.
- Yeah? [laughter]
- Yeah.
- Was it someone new or someone you guys knew?
- It’s somebody that I knew prior
to going into this marriage.
- Oh, damn. Yeah.
Mines was a big head. - Yeah.
- You up?
[laughter]
- I mean.
Yeah, Jas said she was hitting the streets right away, so--
- Yes, she was.
[laughter]
I believe she is.
I wouldn’t be surprised--
I haven’t talked to her about that.
But I’m--I wouldn’t be surprised if, like,
she’s went on a date already.
But, you know, definitely feel like me
and Jasmine are--are good.
I feel like the positive minute,
like, you going forward, I feel like we’ll
continue to be that way.
I got Duchess.
You know what I mean?
- Is Airris still hanging with Duchess?
Like, what’s going on with those two?
- Well, he has her today. - Oh.
- He does? - Mm-hmm.
- Is this gonna be a regular thing with you guys,
walking your ex’s dogs?
- I definitely hope I can continue to see her.
- That won’t be happening much longer.
So it’s just a one-time thing.
- Oh, wow.
We be hard on your man.

Like, did you ever go on that date with Mack?
- Mack and I did make lattes together.
- Oh. - Oh, they made lattes.
- Yeah. I went out with Gina.
It was interesting.
- Interesting?
[chuckles]
- Yeah.
It was more than I expected.
We get towards the end of the date,
and we talk about the distance, ’cause as I’ve told you guys
or I’ll tell you here, I took a job back in Michigan
just ’cause it just makes sense for my career,
you know, my life.
And Gina’s like, yeah, I could--that’s not that far,
like, long-distance.
So it was a--it was a good date.
She’s nice.
I just think I’m dating, but I don’t know
that I’m ready to jump back into something
so serious just yet. - Yeah.
- That’s understandable. - Yeah.
- Oh.
Would you look at that?
- Would you look at that?
- Aw. [laughs]
- I’m in such shock right now to hear that Mack
is moving back to Michigan.
I mean, who would have ever thought?
Hmm. Hmm.
[chuckles]
- I miss you guys. I wish I was there.
- We miss you too.
- Miss you, Gina. - Bye.
- I don’t know.
I can’t believe that Mack is moving back to Michigan.
- Wow. - Do I look surprised?
- No.
Not one bit.
- Ladies, always listen to your intuition.
- That’s it.
- So Dom’s gonna have her big, you know,
"I told you so" moment.
She never thought I was gonna stay here.
- Yeah, but that’s not fair.
Because if it would have worked out, I’m sure
you probably would have stayed. - Oh, for sure.
Yeah. Yeah.
- So that’s not fair to be like, oh, well,
I told you he’s going back. - Yeah.
- Like, you’re going back because it didn’t work out
and you didn’t-- - Right.
- You didn’t have anything to keep you here.
- Dom, you won’t have to worry about
running into him ’cause he’ll be in a whole different state.
- Whoo-hoo! [chuckles] - Yeah.
- Oh, gosh.
- We have to still possibly run into our husbands
if we see them out.
- I’m just ready to keep it pushing--
- Mm-hmm.
- --and just move on with life, and be--close this chapter.
I’m just ready to start a new chapter.
- All right.
- So, for me, Decision Day was, like, the biggest
breath of fresh air. - Mm-hmm.
- Because it was finally said, we’re getting a divorce.
And it was just, like, a relief.
- Yeah.
- Like, my only question that I had for Shaquille--
he had started crying at Decision Day when he told me
he wanted to get a divorce.
- He started crying?
- Yes.
And we were all--
- He said no and he--
- He said he wanted a divorce and started crying.
And I’m like, why in the hell are you crying?
I should be crying.
You’re sitting here telling me
you want to get a divorce from me.
Like, I know I’m a phenomenal--
- And you said yes. - Yeah.
And I know I’m a phenomenal woman.
And, like, the fact that he’s like, no,
I don’t want to see where this can go and how it can go.
I’m just like, why?
I’m like, Shaquille, why did you start crying?
Like, I know at first I was like,
I don’t want to be his friend.
I don’t want to talk to him.
But, like, I need to know.
Processing my feelings is always difficult for me.
So a part of me wants to talk to him about Decision Day,
just to see what made him make that decision,
and kind of, like, get that closure so
that I can move forward.
- I know I would have questions.
- Yeah.
