[Natalie] Previously on 90 Day: The Single Life...
[Julian] Did she tell you about her last relationship?
It turns out that the guy was 24 years old.
-What? -[Julian] Yes.
She sends a little bit of money
to help the family of her ex-boyfriend.
[Ruben] She still has a connection there.
She's sending them money,
you know, with her family trying to get them back together.
And it could be a potential problem for us.
When it comes down to it, I'm in love with this woman.
You're not gonna do something crazy and, like, move there.
I'm probably moving there.
My God...
I love her and I want to be with her.
I want us to be a family, you know, and make this happen.
It's official. It's official. Of course, it is.
This guy loves you.
Um...
The sperm banks provide a service for cases just like this.
[both speaking foreign language]
[Neliia speaking]
[in English] This trip has just been like thing after thing.
It's Tim, and Tim, and Tim, and Tim.
And it's like [bleep] Tim!
-Why are you yelling at me? -Because I raise my voice regularly.
[Jamal] But I'm not a child.
Well, if you want me to leave, I'll leave.

-Well, we got art everywhere, huh? -We do.
Hey, I don't know about you,
but I could go for a little mojito.
-You like that mojito? -Yep.
[Debbie] Earlier today,
Ruben and I went to a graffiti class
and Julian met Ruben for the very first time,
I have no idea what words were exchanged.
But this is our last day, and I want it to be full of good memories
and I want him to think good of me and my family.
[Ruben] Ah, we're finally here.
We made it, Ruben.
Yes. Been a fun, interesting, funny, wet day.
So do you want me to get you your mojito now?
Yes, please.
-All right. I'm gonna go get it. -[Debbie giggling]
[Ruben] I need to talk to Debbie about, you know, what Julian told me.
Because I don't know
if if he was trying to sabotage anything,
But I know, you know, he has trepidation
because of, you know, past failures,
and that's just natural,
and I don't begrudge him for anything.
-Madame, your mojito. -Thank you, Ruben.
Oh, it looks wonderful.
I don't want to spin my wheels and waste my time,
if there's something still lingering from her past.
Because, you know, it's not fair to me
and it keeps raising a doubt, and it's in the back of my mind
and I want to be able to get it settled.
We lost Julian.
Yes, our police escort is not to be seen.
-Our chaperone. -[Debbie] Yeah, he's gone.
[Ruben] I do want to talk to you
about what Julian talked to me about today
when we were doing the graffiti, you know, he pulled me aside.
I don't know if he was giving me the third degree.
Huh?
But we know that, you know, you told me he was here in Miami,
-so I expected that. -Yeah.
But a couple of things that he said seemed a little out of place.
What did he say?
Well, he talked to me about your past relationship.
He brought that up.
That apparently you moved to Morocco for someone.
And then he said that person was like 20 years old or something.
No!
He mentioned that, and he...
You kind of left everything behind, your family.
It caused a lot of turmoil with your son and your daughter.
You know, he has concerns that sometimes
you act more with emotion and your heart than your head.
So, I'm concerned.
[Debbie] Oh, God.
I haven't told Ruben about Oussama
because I'm embarrassed about it.
I want this to be my moment to find true love.
And I don't want Julian, you know, messing it up
and not giving the relationship the chance that it deserves.
It was no fly-by-night, wild hair, impulsive decision.
I had known this gentleman for several years.
And he acted even way older than me.
He was 24.
Well, that's still in the 20s.
I moved there with the intention we were going to get married
and open an on-site art studio to help other artists.
However, he backed out.
And I said, "Fine. I'm not begging any man to take me."
All right, and I can understand
you wanted to chase love or a dream.
I've had failures as well, but I do have concerns
that it isn't really over in a romantic way
or any future thoughts with him rekindling that relationship
-or, you know, is that bridge long burned and so forth? -Well...
'Cause I know it hasn't been that long.
Julian mentioned you still have ties with your ex and his family.
I know you have a great heart, and I think you're still helping them and so forth.
[Debbie] Well, I do have a responsibility,
so I help his parents live in a safe home.
And other than that, there's no romantic future for Oussama and myself.
I just wanted the clarity.
Oh, I understand that. I do.
Okay, but I wanna assure you that I wanna keep getting to know you.
And ultimately, you know, I think it's our decision.
-[Debbie] Right. It is. -And, you know, no one else's.
So I just want to make sure that we're good.
We're going to continue the great time we're having.
I mean... And we just started.
I'm gonna take what she told me,
that it's over, on face value, you know.
Of course, I'm gonna have what Julian told me in the back of my mind.
I mean, I would be a fool not to, you know?
But I'll be cautiously optimistic.
I definitely want us to make sure that we continue on a good, positive path.
There will be a lot of bumps in the road, but you never know.
-Yes. -You know?
Just a little bump in the road named Julian.
I'm glad me and Ruben had a talk,
but I think Julian planted seeds of doubt.
Maybe he's thinking, "Proceed with caution" with me, I think.
Weighing the possibilities, "Is she really a grounded individual?"
[objects clattering]
[Jamal] Need any help?
I don't know if I'm in her best interest,
and she said the same thing about me.
It really says a lot about our relationship.
Welcome to your new home.
[John] I've decided to move to San Antonio,
and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to stay together.
So, you're obviously... You're okay with sleeping in her room?

[mumbles]
Since Meghan's visit to Vegas a few weeks ago,
I've decided to move to San Antonio to be with her for good.
I don't want to imagine my life without her,
and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to stay together.
This is a huge step for me.
I'm leaving everything behind for love.
I mean, what scares me with making this change
is just, you know, you're putting everything out there, right,
and you're opening yourself up, and you just don't want to get hurt.
Like a glove, they say.
Now I don't know where I am,
but I'm about 30 minutes from Flagstaff.
It's pretty pretty out here, though.
Gotta get some gas and I'm gonna tell you kids now.
Lift with your legs.
[chuckles] [bleep] Finally.
[groans] Made it, babes. Made it.
All right.
[honks horn]
Where was it? Right here?
-[chuckles] Hey. -[chuckles] I'm like...
I'm all the way looking around the corner, like, to the car.
[John speaking]
-I don't want to crush her. -I can't believe you're here.
I'm here.
I can't believe you're really here.
-How was your journey? Long. -Long.
Long? So, I was like I always said I'd believe it when I see it, and I see it.
I see the car and...
...all your stuff.
-It's all packed. -I know, I'm amazed.
-It's a lot. -I'm impressed.
I just cannot believe he's here.
I mean, four days ago, he literally called me
and he said he's coming down here.
Got that.
[Meghan] I mean, this is exactly what I wanted,
but, yeah, it's definitely a big surprise
'cause I guess I really didn't think
that he was gonna make the move.
But he's here, his car is full.
He's... he really did it.
Still in shock, that's for sure, but it's all setting in.
Welcome to your new home.
Wow, it looks nice.
Well, I did get you guys a little something small, you know?
-Aw, so sweet. -Well, you know.
All right, River, guess what?
-[gasps] That is yours. -[Meghan] Oh, wow.
Instead of flowers,
I figured I'd get you cheesecake.
You know? Not just one piece.
-Well, you're the real present. -Uh-huh.
Do you want me to put everything in the River's room for now?
Yeah, I don't know, I mean, I think you can just...
Temporarily, you can put it in there,
-and then we'll figure out, like, you know... -Temporarily.
Yeah, no, we'll... No, we'll...
-Temporarily. I know. I get it. -Yeah.
It's okay. Trust me.
[John laughs] You gotta trust me.
That's what I'm doing. I'm here, aren't I?
-It's what I'm doing. -[John] I'm here, aren't I?
[John] All right.
[John] Well, kitchen's all cleaned up.
So you're obviously... You're okay with sleeping in her room?
Yeah. Air mattress isn't the worst thing in the world.
I mean, obviously, well, I cannot sleep with you yet
and just leave her just 'cause it's a new...
You know, this is obviously all new for you, for me, for her,
and I just, like, I don't feel comfortable.
It's just been me and her, and that's why I'm just so used to that.
[John] I know. I know.
Meghan had already explained the sleeping situation before I arrived.
And I knew that Meghan sleeps with River.
And, you know, I knew that it's gonna take some time
to change that, basically.
Turn the lights off for me?
I wanna start getting her down.
-I got you. -Thank you.
So I did to get you a little something.
-It's on the bed. -[John] Okay.
Well, I'll be in the other room.
And, uh, love you.
-Yes. Love you. -[John] Bye.
I think Meghan is my soulmate, you know?
I think everybody does have one.
Or maybe even a couple, who knows?
Maybe you let some slide off or, you know, some let go or you never meet 'em.
But I'm glad I met Meghan, and I think she's mine.
I'll finish that later, I guess.
Well, I've done a lot of crazy stuff,
but I've never uprooted and left for love.
And, you know, there's a lot to take in.
You know, I got a lot of responsibility ahead of me.
But I'm 100% committed.
Bedtime, huh?
Into my comfy bed.
Let's see what I've got going on here.
Change is inevitable in a relationship.
Sacrifices are made on both sides.
I'm here to prove everyone wrong
and be the family guy and start a new chapter.

[Veronica] Last night was, in a lot of ways, a complete roller coaster.
Like, he saw me at my ugliest last night.
I lost it, and I'm really disappointed in a lot of the things I said.
The last thing I would have wanted is for him to have to go
and us still be upset about something
or him still be upset with Tim or anything like that.
And I feel like everything's up for discussion.
Like everything is gray. There is no black, there is no white.
Everything is gray.
We've just gotta figure out what shade of gray.
-[Jamal] Need any help? -[Veronica] No, I'm good.
[Jamal] So last night didn't go the way we planned after dinner.
Although I was feeling like,
"Maybe I should just go get a hotel,"
but we were able to talk.
We both apologized to each other.
I think we both said things we probably shouldn't have said.
Things got a lot better.
The fact that we were both able to admit we were wrong,
it really says a lot about our relationship.
-Mmm. -[Veronica] One.
-This for me? -[Veronica] Sure.
Oh. [chuckles softly]
Let's go sit down. I'm exhausted.
I felt like maybe I triggered you last night
because I've kind of been, like,
pressing you more about Tim than I feel like I really have.
Yeah, I feel like...
I really, like...
When we met, I was like, "Oh, he's never gonna have any issue with Tim."
[Jamal] I don't know why you would think that.
Because I thought a person who's, like, super secure and confident
is not gonna have an issue with Tim.
Like, Tim's not a threat to anybody, you know what I mean?
Yeah, it just came more to, like, a respect thing.
[Veronica] Exactly.
Let's be serious. This has been our hardest trip yet.
The way you handled everything this week,
from the conflict with Tim
-to like my meltdown last night... -Hmm.
I don't know, it's... I appreciate it.
I feel awful that you had to put up with all of this.
I just feel like everything's out now, you know?
Like there's...
I feel like we've addressed pretty much every concern that we've had.
But with last night, I knew you weren't like in the right state,
and I wasn't gonna hold it against you.
'Cause there was, at one point, I was like, "I'm just gonna go to a hotel
because if she got one more time to raise her voice at me..."
I just felt like you felt kind of cornered.
And I was like, "Maybe let me give her a couple of minutes."
And once I did, I felt like we got through it.
But I'm just saying, like, I appreciate you
for being able to compartmentalize your frustration at me
and just focus on addressing whatever the [bleep] was going on with me.
-Yeah. -[Veronica] That's exactly what I needed.
And, like, anyone else in that situation,
it would have ended very differently.
Like, last night would have gone very differently.
I mean, at the end of the day, couples fight all the time.
The bigger thing is when you have conflict, because conflict will come up,
how do you resolve that conflict?
But we have never had a fight in person.
We have never... I've never lost my temper like that on him,
especially, like...
It's probably the most irrational I have ever been with him.
Um, and so, again, it's...
For me, seeing how he handled that is way more important
than how we ended up there in the first place.
And I think going forward, I think we just continue to do what we've been doing.
I'll communicate a little better,
keep seeing you, you know, every month.
And I think as we get closer,
I'll have a better idea of, like, when I am going to end up moving here.
Um... What? Should I not have said that?
No, I'm just shocked that I haven't scared you off yet.
-No, you... -[Veronica laughing]
You haven't scared me off at all.
If anything, I feel like we're closer.
I guess we'd better finish getting you packed.
It's very reassuring to hear Jamal tell me
that he probably will move to Charlotte at some point.
I'm a planner, and I like to generally know what's coming next.
But we've had our ups and downs on this trip,
and we're like finally back in a good place and now he's leaving.
This trip kind of opened up more of our darker problems, I guess you can say.
We have a lot of work to do, but what's a relationship without work, you know?
And whether I like Charlotte or not,
I do know I wanna be around Veronica.
I'm not gonna put a time frame on it,
but I do know I need to stop saying "if", you know,
'cause I do want her to know I am intentional going forward.
All right.
Thank you for not kicking me out.
Thank you for not leaving.
-Have a safe flight, baby. -Thank you.
I'll text you when I get on the plane.
[Veronica] I'm glad
that we've been able to resolve everything before he leaves.
I have never felt more secure and safe and taken care of and seen,
and that's huge.
He did reach out to me and said he wanted to meet up.
I don't know if I should go.
There's questions that you still have in your mind.
I think they need to be answered.
It's scary to be catching feelings
for someone so soon after my divorce.

-[Mooney] Let's eat over here, y'all. It's cute. -[Destinee] So cute.
Listen, from last night eating snails, I need some food.
[Kayleigh] I ate the smallest piece of snail, but you took it like a champ.
I actually spit mine out. It was nasty.
[Chantel] It's our last day here in Greece,
and things have cooled off with me and Giannis
since the snail fest.
I'm confused.
I came to Chania to spend more time with him,
but I'm starting to feel like coming here was a huge waste of my time.
Like, all the affection that I was having before from him has disappeared,
and I just don't understand why.
Like, what did I do?
Are you starting to realize you don't want a woman that's been divorced?
Are you starting to realize you don't want an American,
or is it, like, you know...
Is there something I've done to change your mind about me?
How do you feel, Chantel?
Ugh, I feel like I was hoping that Giannis would have showed me
a lot more attention than he did,
and when I went up to him, he kissed me on the cheek...
[Mooney groans]
...instead of on the mouth.
Okay.
[Destinee] The beach was hot and steamy,
-Yeah, it was just tonguing it out on the beach. -[Chantel] On the beach.
They were.
[Chantel] So then I was like, "What happened?"
Like, I just wasn't feeling it.
He didn't dance with me at all.
Mmm-hmm.
So maybe if he doesn't want to put
everything into you because he feels like,
"Does she even really like me?"
The avocado toast.
[Destinee] Maybe they need communicate. Maybe you need to communicate.
Sometimes it's hard to communicate.
-[Mooney] Truth. -Sometimes I just expect so much of a person.
And I think that's also about you always trying to look
to, like, what could be in the future instead of really living in the present.
And just being so like,
"Wow, I'm going to appreciate this moment, this person, this guy."
It's scary to be catching feelings
for someone so soon after my divorce.
But I can't control what a person does to me, how a person treats me.
All I can do is accept it or walk away from it.
This morning, he did reach out to me
and said he wanted to meet up one last time before I leave.
I don't know if I should go. What do you think?
-Why not? What else we got to do? -Right.
If there's questions that you still have in your mind,
I think they need to be answered.
-Mmm-hmm. -Exactly.
[Kayleigh] That's mature.
Well, that means it's another day for glam.
Another day.
I poured so much energy into Giannis
for things to fizzle out so quickly and abruptly.
It's really confusing. I just don't understand it.
I cannot allow what Giannis has on his mind that he's not telling me,
affect me and my happiness.
So, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go and see what he has to say.

I drove yesterday 19 hours nonstop from Las Vegas to San Antonio
to move in with my girlfriend and her daughter.
-Good morning. -Good morning, babes.
Well, last night wasn't really romantic.
Nobody wants to drive 1,300 miles to sleep on an air mattress alone.
So talk about going to bed with a woody.
But Meghan's such a beautiful person
and I'm madly in love with her,
and I don't see myself spending the rest of my life with anybody else but her.
So did you sleep good?
Yeah. Slept alone, so it wasn't the best.
-But, you know, also, it's a new bed, so you know... -Yeah.
So, I mean, obviously, I've got to get used to things, too, you know.
Like my girlfriend sleeping on the other side of the house.
Yeah, and I mean, I know
that I had to get used to the long distance,
and my boyfriend sleeping on the other side of the country.
Of course, that's what I want,
is for us to sleep in the same bed, you know?
-I know. -No...
-I'm sorry you didn't sleep too well. -That's okay.
[John speaking]
-You're funny. -Yeah.
I mean, obviously, you know, having a good sex life is important, so...
[Meghan] I am really happy that he's here, I'm super excited for that.
But John thinks that I'm gonna be having sex with him in the laundry room
while my daughter is, like, having lunch.
Like, that's definitely not gonna happen.
You know, I'm glad I finally got here and, you know, I moved in,
and at some point, you know, obviously, it would be nice if we shared a bed together.
But I understand it's going to take some time.
Of course, that's what I want, is for us to sleep in the same bed, you know?
I know.
I don't want to sound like I'm an unappreciative person,
because that's the last thing I am.
I'm a very-easy-to-please person,
but in three months it's almost gonna be a year,
so I would hope that you were wanting some kind of commitment.
Like, physical commitment, as far as, like, a ring or something, but...
I don't know where your head is at with that, and that's where I worry.
I mean, it seems like, you know, a little fast.
I think so.
I don't know, doesn't it? It seems a little fast to me.
But you've done it before.
[sighs] And it was a mistake.
And it was a mistake, so I wouldn't want to make another rushed decision.
But I have no doubt about who I want to spend the rest of my life with.
-That's you, babes. -Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.
I love you.
I really think this is too soon to be talking about a ring.
But my love is real because I'm willing to change my life
to be with this woman, and I'm willing to put everything forward to it.
And I'm willing to open myself up and be vulnerable.
And that's not always how I go about life.
You don't know somebody, really, until you live with them.
And then, you know, all the little quirks come out.
Mine and hers.
I'm not scared. It's just like, you know...
I mean... [sighs] One step at a time, you know?

Natalie's mom called me and she wanted me to come out and visit.
That's the main thing, is to see Natalie's mom and catch up with Natalie.
I know Natalie and her mom both love me, and I love them, you know? I do.
We've got a history.
So, I felt a big sense of relief that Mama made it to America.
I wasn't there, but I'm glad I was able to help make that happen.
Well, I'm really glad, you know, I was able to help bring Mama over.

I mean, you seemed like you were fine in Florida.
And so, I mean, you came here.
Did you have a connection or anything?
I mean... Or was it because of Josh, you moved here?
And then you guys broke up.
Yes, I dated Josh. I did. But we both broke up.
Then we wasn't together and...
It's complicated, but he's not in my life.
-He's not. -Okay.

[Chantel] Next time on 90 Day: The Single Life...
-What the hell did you tell Ruben yesterday? -What do you mean?
You made me look, like, desperate.
You're nasty sometimes.
The thing that concerns me is that Ruben doubts my intentions.
I'm scared if we're going to have a future or not.
Okay.
