00:00Whoa!
00:02Oh, my God.
00:04Previously on Match Me Abroad.
00:07Who's watching your fur babies right now?
00:09Um, so I live at home.
00:11I live with my parents.
00:13We actually felt a connection and kind of feel
00:16hard for each other.
00:17But I want a man that is financially stable.
00:21Like, I haven't dated a guy that lives at home
00:22in a very long time, Katarina.
00:24Mm-hmm.
00:25Do you feel comfortable seeing other guys?
00:30Let's warm up.
00:32Let's do it.
00:33OK.
00:35I want to challenge Monica to ask important questions
00:39and not focusing on chemistry.
00:42Do you have any kids?
00:43No.
00:44I would like to.
00:46I want to continue to get to know Bernardo.
00:48But I'm just concerned that if he finds out
00:50I don't want more kids, that it may not go anywhere at all.
00:53I don't want any more children.
00:55I want to do something.
00:58That's good to pass.
00:59The green's a bit milder.
01:00This'll spice things right up.
01:02Speaking of spice, let's put some in my eye.
01:11Who is this guy?
01:12Like, what is he doing?
01:13I'm, like, in shock.
01:14Ugh.
01:15Holy .
01:16Stay here.
01:17A couple more water with your hands.
01:18Oh, yeah.
01:19Ugh.
01:20I've never had anyone put Tabasco in their eyes on a date.
01:31Or ever.
01:32OK.
01:33That's a little bit better.
01:34You don't have, like, a little towel or something?
01:35Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:36There's a tea towel here for you.
01:37OK.
01:38OK.
01:39I've never had anyone put Tabasco in their eyes on a date.
01:44Or ever.
01:45OK.
01:46That's a little bit better.
01:47You don't have, like, a little towel or something?
01:48Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:49There's a tea towel here for you.
01:51There you go.
01:52Ugh.
01:54When he put the hot sauce in his eye, I mean,
02:00I feel like I'm getting, like, cranked.
02:01I feel like his friends are going to, like, come out the wall
02:03and be like, ha-ha, we got you.
02:04Hearing him, like, scream in pain, I was like, OK,
02:07this definitely isn't a joke.
02:09And, I mean, I don't care.
02:11I'm just, like, in shock.
02:15Are you OK?
02:16How are you feeling now?
02:17What's going on, Victoria?
02:18Yeah, yeah.
02:19All good, yeah.
02:20Yeah, yeah.
02:21The left eye is still working.
02:22OK, good.
02:23So, yeah, that wasn't probably the brightest move.
02:25No, I don't think so.
02:26But the oysters were pretty good.
02:27Yeah, the oysters are good.
02:28So should we try a few more and just not put any Tabasco in the eye?
02:32You feel OK doing that?
02:33Yeah, yeah, I feel great.
02:34OK.
02:35Right, let's go back.
02:36OK.
02:37We'll just act like nothing ever happened there.
02:38Yeah, exactly.
02:39Yeah, nothing happened.
02:40No, no, no.
02:41No.
02:44Hold my eye.
02:45Yeah, OK.
02:46Yeah, no, I'm fine.
02:47I'm good.
02:48Let's crack another one.
02:49OK.
02:53There we go.
02:54That is so good.
02:55That is really awesome.
02:56Mm-hmm.
02:57Yeah.
02:58My goodness.
02:59I decided to continue with the date because I'm trying to avoid an awkward confrontation
03:04with Dave.
03:05I just don't want to be mean.
03:07I just feel like it'd be easier to be the people pleaser.
03:11Just smile, nod.
03:13And I feel like that's what Katarina's for.
03:15I mean, I hired a matchmaker.
03:17Shouldn't she have to do all the dirty work?
03:19Oh, my God.
03:20Woo!
03:24How are you feeling?
03:25So where's your favorite place in the States apart from where you live?
03:27Um, San Diego.
03:30San Diego is very cool.
03:31Yeah.
03:32Very cool.
03:33Um, I actually went over there in a camper van.
03:36We were traveling.
03:37Oh, cool.
03:38I crashed the RV.
03:39Oh.
03:40I impaled it into, like, some jeep behind me so my friends weren't too happy.
03:43Like, what?
03:44Mm-hmm.
03:45Yeah.
03:46It's a happy date.
03:47Yeah.
03:48So why, uh, why did you come all the way to Ireland?
03:52I had dated an Irish guy in New York and I really liked him.
03:54Mm-hmm.
03:55And I liked how it, like, his personality, his vibe, his energy, his sense of humor.
03:58Yeah.
03:59And so I just was, like, more curious.
04:01I'm like, okay, I could, you know.
04:02Yeah, yeah.
04:03All right.
04:04Do something.
04:05Sweet.
04:06Yeah.
04:07Yeah.
04:08I'd be open to, like, a serious relationship now.
04:10Mm-hmm.
04:11Do you know what I mean?
04:12Yeah?
04:13What do you think of Guinness?
04:16I love it.
04:17Mm.
04:18Happy days.
04:19Oh, yeah.
04:20So, um, good first day out anyway.
04:23I've had fun.
04:24Yeah, I did too.
04:25Yeah.
04:26Mm-hmm.
04:27Definitely different.
04:28Yeah.
04:29So, uh, yeah, we'll have to meet again.
04:30Yeah.
04:31I'm sure we can make something work.
04:32Yeah.
04:33Sounds good.
04:34I really was hopeful that I was gonna have a second day.
04:40I mean, I was trying to be positive, trying to have a good outlook, but David was just too much for me.
04:46I think that I need to have, like, another talk with Katarina and reevaluate what I'm looking for in a guy.
04:55Good day.
05:04I'm Sarah, I'm 36 years old, and I live in Houston, Texas.
05:30So, this is my original design.
05:34It is an angel.
05:36And the theme is pretty much always angels in love with all my stuff.
05:42I'm a business owner, and I own my own jewelry and accessory shop online.
05:46I have been crafting since I can remember, putting my little photographs and little charms and stickers.
05:55I love helping women look and feel beautiful through my work.
05:59Self-confidence is really important to me because, for me personally, I'm so happy with who I am today, but that hasn't always been the case.
06:06Hey, Princey.
06:08I've worked very hard on myself, physically and internally, and with my business, and I am just finally happy where I am today.
06:18So, I'm very excited to go find love in Singapore.
06:21Don't think so fast, time to ask to make the light of shade.
06:31Don't sniff the hate away, because the blondes have more fun.
06:36Everybody knows that the blondes have more fun.
06:39I hope you brought enough luggage.
06:42I flew all the way across the world to Singapore to find love, and I'm bringing my mom with me because she's my best friend.
06:52And if she's not there in person, I'm just going to be on the phone with her the whole time anyway, so I might as well bring her.
06:57This place is insane.
06:59Oh, mom, look at the waterfall.
07:00I'm so excited.
07:01Oh, my gosh.
07:02That's amazing.
07:03Amazing.
07:04It's always an adventure with you, baby girl.
07:08I know, right?
07:10I'm very excited to go find love in Singapore because Singaporean men have it all going on.
07:17I just love the way that the men treat their women with the utmost respect and are very family-oriented.
07:27But I also love a man that is successful as an entrepreneur who has strong work ethic.
07:33And Singaporean men are a triple threat.
07:36They're brainy and have good personalities.
07:38And of course, Singaporean men are very hot.
07:41They have a thick head of hair, they're masculine, and a lot of them are very fit, and I'm into that.
07:48Like, give me Nick Young from Crazy Rich Asians any day and I'll be so happy.
07:53Ready to do this thing?
07:54Yeah, I'm so excited.
07:56Mm-hmm.
07:57I can put in my two cents.
08:00My request for a son-in-law.
08:03It's been challenging for me to find love in the United States.
08:08It's been exhausting, we'll put it that way.
08:11I don't have one relationship.
08:13We were going to get married.
08:15But he decided one day he didn't want to have children.
08:18He knew that that was a non-negotiable for me.
08:21And I hit a rock bottom, complete rock bottom.
08:26I remember I laid in my bathtub and I cried and I was like,
08:29maybe I'll just settle for that because I don't want to lose him.
08:33But I knew that I deserved more.
08:35And so we broke off our engagement.
08:38Hi!
08:40I'm your driver.
08:41Dolly sent me here?
08:42Yes.
08:43I've dated since then, but the problem is I haven't found any guys that are able to truly commit
08:49to marriage and having children.
08:52My biological clock is ticking and so I'm just over the guys that I've been meeting in America.
09:05Look at this.
09:06It's so pretty.
09:07I know.
09:08The buildings here look so futuristic, right?
09:11Yeah.
09:12So how long will you guys be here?
09:16Two weeks.
09:17Nice.
09:18So what are your favorite things about Singapore?
09:21The security.
09:22The security here is amazing.
09:24The only thing that we have to follow a lot of rules and regulations.
09:28Oh, right.
09:29You can't even have gum here, correct?
09:30Is that true?
09:31Yeah.
09:32No chewing gum?
09:33No chewing gum.
09:34I just can't wait, Ma.
09:37I really hope that I find the love of my life.
09:39I know.
09:40Really, really happy to be here.
09:42I wish dad was here.
09:44Mm-hmm.
09:45I have a feeling he's watching from somewhere.
09:48Yeah.
09:51My dad passed away two years ago and he passed away from cancer.
09:56He went into the hospital thinking that he just maybe had the flu.
10:00And then within a week and a half, he died.
10:04If I would have known how long he had, I would have just literally spent every single
10:08second with him.
10:09I would give anything to have, like, a moment with him again.
10:15I would have loved for my dad to have watched me walk down the aisle and I will never get
10:20to have that.
10:21But I just, I want to make him proud of who I choose.
10:26We are here.
10:27Ah!
10:28This is gorgeous.
10:29Gorgeous.
10:31After my father passed away, I definitely realized, like, how short life truly is.
10:37And I want true love.
10:39I want a family.
10:40But I've been searching years.
10:42And so I'm putting my trust into a matchmaker in hopes that she can find my perfect match.
10:49Hi, Dolly.
10:50Hi, Sarah.
10:51It's so nice to meet you.
10:52So nice to meet you.
10:54Oh, I'm sorry.
10:55Hi, Kitty.
10:56How are you?
10:57Nice to meet you.
10:58Welcome to Singapore.
11:00We're so happy to be here.
11:01Come have a seat.
11:04So how was the flight?
11:05It was good.
11:06It was long.
11:07And long.
11:08Yes, very long.
11:09Yes, but you guys still look amazing.
11:10Oh, thank you.
11:12You're very kind.
11:13And looking at you right now, you look like a celebrity.
11:18Sarah is beautiful.
11:20But at the same time, Sarah as a client is going to be a very tricky one.
11:25Because the men here are just used to a more natural-looking girl.
11:30And of course, I know of Asian versions of her, but they're all sugar babes.
11:34So the kind of men that would typically be attracted to her would just be a man that would go for looks.
11:40So I want to help Sarah discover her true identity beyond all the glitz and glamour.
11:45What does her inner voice say?
11:47Is it a positive one?
11:49Or is she insecure about something?
11:53And I believe that there's a part of her in there that can really shine.
11:57So tomorrow, I do want to meet with you in my office so that I can help you achieve success.
12:07Awesome.
12:08Right?
12:09I'm really excited.
12:10I can't wait.
12:14I am so proud of myself for taking this huge leap of faith.
12:17But honestly, I will be extremely disappointed if I don't find true love.
12:23I only want to get married one time.
12:25I only want to do this one time because I have been so heartbroken in the past.
12:31And I'm going to get emotional.
12:34I only have, like, one more early heartbreak in me, potentially.
12:38Like, I only, like, I'm only going to, like, get my heart to, like, probably one more person for the rest of my life.
12:43I would never want to start something with anybody that would stop what they want in life.
12:57I really hope kids aren't a huge issue for him because even in this one date, I can really feel myself falling for him.
13:04This is, uh, this is a thing that I planned in the future that I could do.
13:13What?
13:14What?
13:15Hello?
13:17I thought it was going to be, like, a lavish estate, but it was, like, this shed area.
13:22I don't want the first place that we go to be your backyard shed.
13:25So, um, I, you know, I hate to ask such forward questions.
13:39I don't even know if that's part of your Brazilian culture.
13:42But I would never want to start something with anybody that would stop what they want in life.
13:50I don't want any more children.
13:55And I just need you to, you know, to know that.
13:57And so you go into whatever we do with your eyes wide open.
14:03Yes, of course.
14:04Um, you know.
14:05Yeah.
14:06But, uh, this is, uh, this is a thing that I planned in the future that I could do.
14:12I would like to be a father, but I don't know.
14:14Yeah.
14:15I guess you never know.
14:16Yeah.
14:17I mean, I just, at this age where I'm at now and in my life, I'm really interested in, like, meeting somebody that we can travel and do fun things.
14:26And I know that when you have a kid, you have, you have your life changed.
14:31Entirely, and they're so expensive.
14:34I appreciate you talking to me about children in the United States.
14:39I don't think I've shared what I'm looking for with anybody on the first date.
14:42Because it would feel rushed or someone would get scared.
14:46Like, ooh, this girl's crazy.
14:48I don't know.
14:49I, I don't know.
14:50I, for me, it's, um, no problem.
14:54Um, I don't know about your, what your plans for the weekend and for the next week.
15:01Uh, I really would like to, to stay with you more time.
15:07Me too.
15:08And, uh, it was a great night.
15:11Can I walk with you at home?
15:14Yeah, let's go.
15:15Absolutely.
15:17Bye-bye.
15:18Thank you very much.
15:19Ciao.
15:20Ciao.
15:21Let's go.
15:22I really hope Bernardo is being sincere and that kids aren't a huge issue for him.
15:27Because even in this one date, I can really feel myself falling for him.
15:31He smells good.
15:32He looks good.
15:33He feels good.
15:34I love that warm, mushy feeling I feel inside.
15:38This way.
15:39This way.
15:40But I'm a little bit nervous that he asked me to walk me up to my room.
15:44You know, like, is he expecting to go inside?
15:47Is this what they do in Brazil?
15:49I don't know.
15:50But I'm not ready for that.
15:52Because I really just want time to get to know him more.
15:55So...
15:56My, my, my palms are sweaty.
16:00Well, I had a really nice time.
16:01Yes.
16:02Thank you for everything.
16:03I need...
16:04My phone number?
16:05Yes.
16:06I do know that.
16:07This is important.
16:08This is one thing I do know.
16:10It would have been scary if I didn't.
16:11I'll put it in here.
16:15Oh, stupid!
16:16It's done.
16:19Yeah, okay, good.
16:20It's done.
16:21Yeah.
16:22Now we're connected.
16:23Okay.
16:24Okay.
16:25Good night.
16:27Thank you very much.
16:28You are so late.
16:29That was a wonderful evening.
16:30I'll see you again.
16:31I promise.
16:32Really?
16:33Mm-hmm.
16:34Want some room?
16:47You're great, too.
16:49So we talk and let's...
16:52I'll message you, like, right now.
16:55To be honest, I feel giddy.
16:56That kiss took me from worrying about kids
17:00and all these heavy questions to just, like...
17:04It's like being a teenager again
17:06and, like, falling head over heels pretty quick
17:08on a first date.
17:11Am I falling in love or am I living in a moment?
17:13I don't know.
17:14All I know is that right now, my heart is...
17:19My heart is opening up.
17:21Okay.
17:22Okay.
17:23Thank you very much.
17:24All right, good night.
17:26Bye-bye.
17:28Bye-bye.
17:31We talked about, like, future-type stuff
17:34and he said he wanted two to three children.
17:36I don't want any.
17:38Would you change your mind for the right guy?
17:40No.
17:41Definitely not.
17:42I feel that this has not been mentioned before.
17:47So you're from here.
17:48Single.
17:49Yeah, I am single.
17:50That is crazy.
17:51I guess you are, too, if you're coming this far, yeah.
17:53In the shed with a man with knives and wood tools.
17:56The whole exporter thing is...
17:58I think it is, yeah.
18:11Hi.
18:12Hey, look who's here.
18:13Yes.
18:14So, girl, how did it go with Dave?
18:24Ooh.
18:25Ooh.
18:26He was so excited.
18:27He's crazy about you.
18:28He definitely wants to see you again.
18:30Yeah, I believe that.
18:31I believe it.
18:32All right.
18:33We had fun.
18:34It was a fun time for sure.
18:35Okay, did you have fun?
18:37Um...
18:38Yes, but no.
18:41He was a little tutu out there, like, spontaneous for me.
18:47Well, we did agree that you wanted a bad boy.
18:50Yeah.
18:51You gave me exactly what I asked for, yes.
18:53Uh-huh.
18:54But...
18:55While we're sitting there eating, he grabs a ball of hot sauce from the table and then turns
19:00it and shakes it and puts it in his eye.
19:04Why did he do that kind of thing?
19:06I don't know.
19:07It sounds like he needs to have all of the attention rather than using the opportunity to really
19:14get to know you.
19:15Yeah, he just wanted to see if I can handle that kind of craziness.
19:19Feels quite immature to me.
19:21If this episode with him hadn't happened, would you be interested in dating him further?
19:29No.
19:31We talked about, like, future type stuff and that's where our divide was.
19:36He said he wanted two to three children.
19:49I don't want any.
19:51Would you change your mind for the right guy?
19:53No.
19:54Definitely not.
19:55That's a deal breaker.
19:56Mm-hmm.
19:57Yeah, that's definitely a deal breaker.
19:59I feel that this has not been mentioned before.
20:02Yeah, right.
20:03I don't think I, like, went that deep into my firmness on not wanting children.
20:10Only dog children.
20:11Only dog children.
20:12Yes, exactly.
20:13Understand.
20:14Mm-hmm.
20:15Respect.
20:16Yeah.
20:17I don't want kids because of all the things I've been through.
20:21Just to, like, the addiction thing with my dad.
20:24That's, like, hereditary.
20:25I've thought about this through and through.
20:27Not gonna change my mind.
20:29I feel like the right Irish guy for me won't want, like, a big family.
20:32He has to be out there somewhere.
20:34So there were obviously many moments that you did not enjoy during the date.
20:41Did you actually express clearly, directly, how you were feeling?
20:46Or did you play it all cool?
20:48I played it cool.
20:49I wouldn't want to say something just to upset him to upset him.
20:52So it's like, eh, it's fine.
20:54Sounds like you're overthinking too much.
20:57Probably.
20:58About what to do to make another person feel well.
21:01Yeah.
21:02And forgetting about what you need.
21:03Mm-hmm.
21:04And this is what we were talking in the very beginning.
21:07It's about your desires.
21:09So, Victoria.
21:10For your next date.
21:11You're gonna show your emotions.
21:13Okay.
21:14Because you are shielded.
21:15You are armored right now.
21:16And I need you to show what is happening down there.
21:19Okay.
21:21Okay.
21:22I'm gonna show you to make sure you're gonna show yourself in your full power to this guy.
21:25Okay.
21:26Okay.
21:27It could be a little nerve-wracking having Katerina on my date.
21:31Because I 100% feel like Katerina will call me out, like, on the spot as she sees it.
21:37She's, like, so blunt.
21:39And, like, that's, like, my worst nightmare.
21:41I hate confrontation because it's just so awkward and uncomfortable.
21:46So I'm super nervous.
21:48I don't want you to skip on this opportunity.
21:51Deal.
22:01See, all these are, like, charming.
22:03Charming little, like, almost cottages.
22:05There are still leprechauns this side of the world.
22:08They chase the sheep at nighttime.
22:10Nuh-uh.
22:11That's a...
22:12Yeah.
22:13A real thing?
22:14Or that's, like, an urban legend?
22:15No.
22:16They're real.
22:17Yeah.
22:18So are leprechauns mean?
22:19Aw, I thought they were supposed to be nice.
22:20You don't want to cross that, guys.
22:21Yeah.
22:22Yeah.
22:23Yeah.
22:24Today I have a date with Paul out in the Irish countryside.
22:40I'm interested in Keevan, but I love the fact that Katarina is challenging me to date other
22:45guys and to get out of my comfort zone of rushing into a situation and giving myself options.
22:50So I'm up for it.
22:51Oh, cows.
22:52Boo!
22:53A typical Irish man lives with his parents until marriage, but Amber wants someone more independent.
23:06So the next guy I have for Amber is 43-year-old Paul.
23:11He lives in the countryside in a beautiful house that he built by himself.
23:16He's fully sustainable, and he wants his partner to embrace his lifestyle.
23:21But he's very sensitive, very perceptive, and that's also what Amber needs.
23:28There you go.
23:31Wow.
23:32Oh.
23:33What?
23:34What?
23:35Hello?
23:36I thought it was going to be like a lavish estate, but it's like this shed area.
23:46Hello?
23:47I don't want the first place that we go to be your backyard shed.
23:52So it is, it makes me kind of nervous.
23:55Hi.
23:56How are you?
23:57I'm wonderful.
23:58I'm Amber.
23:59Nice to meet you.
24:00Amber, nice to meet you.
24:01I'm Paul.
24:02I'm just playing around.
24:03I was about to say, what are you doing?
24:04I'm always making something.
24:05I was about to say, what are you doing?
24:06I'm always making something.
24:07What are you creating?
24:08So I was carving a spoon.
24:09A spoon?
24:10Yeah.
24:11Wait a minute.
24:12Is this what you normally do?
24:13Is this what you do for a spoon?
24:14No, this is a hobby.
24:15No, this is a hobby.
24:16Go and hop on.
24:17Oh, I sit there, I straddle it?
24:19Yeah.
24:23Okay.
24:24So everyone tells you not to pull a knife or a blade towards yourself.
24:28Yes.
24:29But I'm going to tell you to do that.
24:30No way.
24:31Yeah.
24:32My first impression of Paul, he actually is very handsome, but total opposite of Keevan.
24:40I met Keevan with a suit jacket and a, you know, dress to the nines.
24:44Paul has on a shirt that says, hi, my name is Paul in Crocs.
24:47I can't even believe I'm going on a date with a dude with Crocs.
24:49But he's, he's very handsome.
24:52He needs to throw the Crocs away.
24:54So tell me more about yourself, Paul.
24:56So you're from here.
24:58I'm from very close.
24:59Single.
25:00Yeah, I am single.
25:01Okay.
25:02I guess you are too if you're, if you're coming this far.
25:04Yeah.
25:05Right, and in the shed with a man with knives and wood tools.
25:08That is crazy.
25:09Yes.
25:10The whole axe murderer thing.
25:11Yeah.
25:12Hopefully my location is on my phone so that I will be easily found.
25:19Because this is a horror movie, like chains, axes.
25:24But at the same time, I'm intrigued.
25:27I love a man that can teach me different things and show me different angles of life.
25:34My mind is open.
25:39So do you ever get scared out here all by yourself?
25:41No.
25:42I live off the grid.
25:44So what is this?
25:45So this is an outdoor bathtub.
25:47You can use it as a, as a hot tub.
25:50Get out of here.
25:51So it's filled with rainwater from a, from a roof.
25:53And you put the wood down there instead of fire?
25:55Yeah, you can, you can light a fire because it's a cast iron tub.
25:57Okay.
25:58And you literally come out here and continue, and, and have a bath by yourself.
26:02Under, under the stars.
26:05Never dated an American moment.
26:07But first thoughts of Amber would be not my typical, what I would think I would like.
26:14My hands are, are a little chilly.
26:16Are they?
26:17Yes.
26:18Well, we can go inside if you want.
26:19But she's beautiful.
26:20She's, um, she's fun.
26:22She's a nice bubbly personality.
26:24I'm just curious to see the experience and, uh, take the opportunity as it comes.
26:31Do you want a cup of tea?
26:32Yeah, that sounds awesome.
26:33Okay.
26:35I'd probably have a herbal.
26:37If you want.
26:38There's mint there in the garden.
26:39Okay.
26:41I need a good herbal tea in my life right now.
26:44So most of my food is in the, it's either in the garden.
26:48Yeah.
26:49And you just go out there and get it immediately.
26:50Or it's, it's dried good so it doesn't go off.
26:52How long does it take normally for your food to go bad?
26:55Well, I don't even have a fridge.
26:57So I don't let it go bad.
27:01Oh my God, you really don't.
27:02No, we don't have a fridge.
27:03I don't have a fridge.
27:08Tea.
27:11Hmm.
27:13What a pleasure.
27:14Thank you so much for making me a tea.
27:15You're welcome.
27:16Rice.
27:17Okay.
27:18You don't have a refrigerator.
27:19No, no fridge.
27:20What else is, um, something that I would normally have at home that you don't have?
27:24Don't have a dishwasher.
27:26Don't have, yeah, I have a, I have a compost toilet.
27:30What's a compost toilet?
27:33What's a compost toilet?
27:34Okay, I'll show you.
27:37Get that out of the way.
27:40Your vacuum is cute.
27:41Yeah, this is my compost toilet.
27:43Get out of here.
27:44So it's basically, you make your deposit, and then you cover it with soda, and then move it into the garden.
27:50Okay.
27:51But it shouldn't smell, it should be a nice, it should be a nice, um, piney smell.
27:55Oh yeah, it does smell good.
27:57Okay, that's not what I was expecting at all.
27:59Okay.
28:02Did you make the toilet too?
28:03Yeah, I made the toilet.
28:05I love that you make everything.
28:07And this tea is phenomenal.
28:11From the garden.
28:12Oh, I take a sip of the tea, and it is delicious. So good. And then immediately, I think, Paul's duty fertilized this. And I am disgusted. He had other teas there. Why would you give me the pool tea? I hate to cut my visit short, but it's starting to get dark. We gotta go down East Country Road.
28:25Okay. Okay. It was lovely to have you here. Thank you. It was lovely to be here. You've shown me so much.
28:43You know where I am now. You can come back anytime.
28:47I think it's time to wrap this date up. He even looks like a prince charming now. Like, I can't wait for our next date.
28:52Thank you again. I had a fabulous time.
28:55Okay. Lovely to see you.
28:56Paul is a nice guy. He's just not my cup of tea. Literally.
29:00Bye.
29:01Okay. Bye-bye.
29:05As we were saying goodbye, he kissed me.
29:09When I'm working with people, I want them not focusing on chemistry.
29:14Look out!
29:30Hi, Monica!
29:31Hi, good to see you. How are you?
29:34I'm really good.
29:35Really good.
29:36How are you doing?
29:37We're kind of matching today.
29:49Oh, my God! I love your dress.
29:51I got the memo.
29:53So tell me everything.
29:55How did it go with Bernardo?
29:58It was honestly the best date I've ever had.
30:01Yes!
30:02Really?
30:03Wow!
30:04How good!
30:05Tell me everything.
30:06Oh, my gosh.
30:07So, from the moment I laid eyes on him, he's got a very good demeanor about himself.
30:13You could tell just by the way he turned and greeted me.
30:16This person is so grounded. I could feel it.
30:19So we meet, then we played.
30:22We had so much fun, and after that, he didn't really have plans, and I didn't really have plans.
30:27So we're like, well, let's continue this, because we really liked each other.
30:31And what we did, we talked.
30:33And I started to ask the deeper questions that you wanted me to ask.
30:36Oh, good!
30:37So good!
30:38And he was not uncomfortable.
30:40He, like, he even dove deeper and wanted to know more.
30:43This is so good.
30:45As we were saying goodbye, he kissed me.
30:50And I kissed him back.
30:51Like, really?
30:52Like a passionate...
30:54Yes!
30:57When I came in this door, I shut it, right?
31:00And I was like, ah!
31:03By myself!
31:04Like, ah!
31:06You know, what was I supposed to do?
31:09I wanted to kiss him, too.
31:10Did a man try kissing on the first day?
31:13Oh, they do?
31:14Yeah.
31:15Oh, my gosh.
31:16I didn't not want it.
31:17Like, I wanted to kiss him.
31:19I leaned in myself.
31:20I want to kiss him again.
31:21I have this philosophy, when I'm working with people, to wait a little bit to have their
31:29first kiss, like I told Monica, because I want them to go through the important questions.
31:36First, to learn information about their values, to choose a better partner for them, and not
31:44focusing on chemistry.
31:46So, now I have to figure out if Bernardo is really the best match for Monica, or there
31:54are just chemistry between them.
31:57So, you want a second date also?
32:00I do.
32:01But how about Bruno in this situation?
32:05When I think about finding love, I think about a partner who wants to grow together with
32:14me, and I'm ready to love.
32:16That was cute.
32:18It's funny you asked me that.
32:21Bruno became less important when I met Bernardo.
32:24Really?
32:25Yeah.
32:26Because I have not met him yet, and I really enjoyed Bernardo.
32:30So, in a way, Bernardo really took first place, I think, over Bruno.
32:36Because now you have more information about Bernardo than you have from Bruno.
32:41Yes.
32:42You should go slow.
32:43I know.
32:44I want you to try a little bit more dating Brazilian guys and see how things go with Bruno.
32:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:54I've never had this situation in my life where, like, I have one that I like, and then another
32:58one that I might like, and then, you know, having to find those differences that are going
33:03to be probably the longer lasting thing.
33:06Be open to this.
33:07I know you were attached to Bernardo, but it's a good thing also because then you will be,
33:13you're going to be more rational.
33:16And don't kiss.
33:17Please, don't kiss.
33:18I'm going to try real hard.
33:19I'm not going to kiss.
33:20Please, please.
33:23You're going to be good.
33:24These Brazilian men.
33:25Woo!
33:26As much as I feel that I've found a guy that I kind of really like, I know Luis is right.
33:32I came here thinking about Bruno, excited to see Bruno.
33:37So what if, just what if, what if he's just as great?
33:41Right?
33:42Like, I, there's so many what ifs that would never be answered if I cheat myself out of this
33:46and not see him.
33:47So I need to give it a fair shot because I am not here just to hook up.
33:53I am not here just to mess around and play with these guys.
33:57I'm actually here to find love.
33:58I want to hear everything from this date.
34:01Okay.
34:02So you tell me everything.
34:03Okay?
34:04I will tell you everything.
34:08If you don't tone down your look, a Singaporean man might judge the book by its cover.
34:12Are you ready to unglam for the dates?
34:16No.
34:17No.
34:28Sarah is very glamorous.
34:31Just va-va-voom.
34:33I think she needs a guy who is not going to look like super high-end and not so absorbed
34:40with himself.
34:41And I think the first date should be someone that is totally not on paper her type.
34:59Hi, Dolly.
35:00Hey.
35:01So good to see you.
35:02Welcome.
35:04Thank you for having us.
35:05Hi.
35:06Hi, Kitty.
35:07I arrived in Singapore a few days ago, and today I'm going on my first date.
35:12Yay.
35:13I'm so ready to find my husband.
35:15Like, where you at, baby?
35:17I'm waiting.
35:18Been waiting for years.
35:21Wow, do you ever leave Versailles?
35:24I do.
35:25I do.
35:26She's actually, like, extremely independent.
35:29Maybe you're not getting that vibe since I'm here.
35:31I'm not seeing that.
35:32I'm very into that.
35:34She has always been very, very...
35:36She's also my best friend.
35:37Independent.
35:38But at some point, I do want some alone time with you just so that I can really get to
35:43know Sarah.
35:44Yeah.
35:45With Kitty, I know she's flown a long way to do this with her daughter, but I was a little
35:53surprised when Sarah came to the office and she brought her mom along.
35:57So I'm worried if Kitty's going to be a helicopter parent.
36:03What do you feel was your mistakes that you've made along the way in your dating journey?
36:10Every single thing that I watched growing up was these fairytale princess movies and these extravagant
36:18love stories.
36:19And I think it makes it really hard because we have an unrealistic expectation of what
36:25love should look like and what relationships should look like.
36:28What's perfect for you then?
36:30Well, so I do want someone who does want to have children with me and start a family in
36:36the near future.
36:37And that's a non-negotiable for me.
36:39And someone that I just genuinely have so much fun with that feels like my best friend.
36:44Yes.
36:45I'm just dying to know who's my first match.
36:48Can you give me any more information?
36:50Um, he's Freddie.
36:51He is 37.
36:53So he is also ready to have a family.
36:56Okay.
36:57And he is an artist in Singapore.
37:00Cool.
37:01And he has planned a very exciting date for you.
37:05He's going to take you on this exploration of different sides of Singapore.
37:09Okay.
37:10That sounds amazing.
37:11Yeah, I can't wait.
37:12Thank you, Dolly.
37:13Okay.
37:14So let's just get into what you need to have a successful matches and to see if you're
37:19able to fit culturally, right?
37:22So I know you share a lot with me on what your values are.
37:26And from that, I've found these matches for you because values is everlasting.
37:32Looks will fade.
37:33Right, of course.
37:34And I just wonder, are you ready to kind of unglam for the dates?
37:40Are you comfortable with that?
37:42No.
37:43Okay.
37:44Well, if we do something outdoorsy, will you be wearing makeup to say a sporty activity?
37:54Oh, yeah.
37:55I always pretty much do my makeup the same.
37:57Unless it's nighttime, then I do a full glam.
38:00Okay.
38:01Um, so also my concern is that if you don't tone down your look, a Singaporean man might
38:09judge the book by its cover because the men here are just not used to it.
38:13Mm-hmm.
38:14Be real.
38:15Right?
38:16It's not all.
38:17You don't have to paint a perfect picture.
38:18Mm-hmm.
38:19Right.
38:20Which is so true.
38:21I've always been concerned that Sarah could possibly attract the wrong kind of men.
38:25You really have to have an open heart, right?
38:28Yes.
38:29You have to be vulnerable to enter into a real relationship.
38:34Yes.
38:35I have always told Sarah that toning down maybe the makeup and the attire a little bit
38:42is going to help her find someone that will love her for everything that she is.
38:47But I think, um, having an expert come in and give her some advice and opinion really
38:54will help Sarah, um, move in a maybe slightly different new direction.
38:59And hopefully just, you know, give her a new perspective.
39:02Um, I'm still going to stay true to myself.
39:05That's important to me.
39:06And I think that, um, yeah, whoever ends up with me, they need to know the real me.
39:11So, therefore, on a date, I want to look at my last.
39:14Okay.
39:16I have spent many years working on my outward appearance, and I love the way that I look.
39:22So, Dolly wanting me to tone down my look, honestly, for all.
39:27So, if I actually thought that would help to turn my love life around, I think I would
39:32have done it by now.
39:34So, I don't normally work with the parent of my client.
39:37Right.
39:38But you're an extra pair of eyes and ears, you know.
39:43So, let's work together on this in this journey of finding a match completely far away
39:49from what she's used to.
39:51Next time on Match Me Abroad.
39:57Hi, Amber.
39:58Hello.
39:59Hi, Amber.
40:00Happy to see you again.
40:01This is Cheryl.
40:02Hi.
40:03Hi, nice to see you.
40:04Hi.
40:05Cheryl is not what I expected.
40:06Much chubbier, shorter.
40:08I am not so sexually attracted to him.
40:11What do you normally do for leisure?
40:14I guess I'm here on vacation to meet you.
40:17Right.
40:22Okay.
40:23Whew.
40:24My expectations for a woman are very high because I hold myself at a very high standard.
40:29So, I really think going Brazil is my best viable option.
40:33I will be driving in South Hollow.
40:36Do you think you were a picky man?
40:39Absolutely.
40:40No short hair.
40:41The longer the hair, the more effort she puts into her daily routine.
40:48Do you know where this is?
40:49What this is?
40:50Where?
40:51This is the red light district.
40:52Oh, really?
40:53Yeah.
40:54I understand that Dolly is trying to maybe get me out of my comfort zone.
40:58So, I'm feeling a little bit anxious.
41:01What kind of place have I brought you in?
41:06How are you?
41:07Great. Yourself?
41:08I'm wonderful.
41:09For my second date with Keevan, I'm super focused on learning more about his goals.
41:15And if he doesn't have a future or see himself doing anything in the future, then I don't know if we have one.
41:19Well, I have a weird question.
41:21Well, you're 45 years old.
41:23Yeah.
41:24How do you see yourself?
41:25I haven't thought about it, to be honest.
