I will not cry,

But I really want to be
more cognizant of, like,

the effects it has
on us together.

- Yeah, I appreciate that.

- I was raised Jewish,
but I'm personally agnostic.

- We might have differences
in those areas.

- I feel like, by us
building a foundation on all

of the other aspects

we will be able

- Gee, I didn't know
this about you.

- If you'd just ask.

- We do live pretty
close to each other,

so I was just thinking
we'd, like, move

back into our normal spots.

- What would probably
make more sense

is to move into my place
while we wait

to maybe buy something.

[dramatic music]

- I just need you to tell
me if you're physically

attracted to me or not.

But I think we're both very
excited to go home and, like,

just get into a little
bit of normalcy,

and figure out, like,
how our life is actually

gonna start merging together.

- What up?
- Hello!

- Hey, darling!

- 'Cause this is not gonna

- And as couples,
we all get to see what

our day-to-day life is like.

- Yeah.

- So what are you
guys gonna do?

- I don't know.
We'll figure it out.

We're having
irreconcilable differences.

- No, I would say that we're
just dealing with topics

we've never
really dealt with before,

and so it can get really murky.

- I think we have different
perspectives of what happened.

- Yeah, so I think we're trying
to see eye to eye first,

before you know, we start,
I guess,

you know, letting that out.

- We respect that.

Whenever you're ready,
we're here for you.

- I don't feel
like Orion has been

able to afford me the same
grace that I've given him.

I'm sure that's for his--

because of his
own internal struggles,

but it does feel
a little unfair.

Like, OK, there are
some things that I

could have done better, things
that I could have said better.

I don't know, it just
feels very up and down

in this marriage already.

It's like,
I can't really keep up

with all the altercations
that happen,

because the honeymoon
was a lot.

- Should we go

to like fill in the blanks

with random stuff.

laundry stuff, comfy clothes,

because that's
all I really wear.

This is the first time we've
both ever lived with someone

that, like, isn't a roommate.

So are you nervous at all?

Excited?
- I am excited.

I feel like we have, like,
a mutual respect, and, like,

know how to live
with other people.

- Yeah, I feel the same,
and I just feel like I would

rather you tell me, like--

like, I'd rather you say, like,
oh, this is kind of bothering

me, instead of, like, tomorrow,
versus, like, even just

a few days because you feel
like you can't bring that up,

because it's been a day.

And I think, for us, something
to think about too is, like,

if we're angry, like,
it's an easy thing

to do to just leave
this place and like

go back to our other ones.

If you need a minute,
sure, but I think

it will be better if we,
like, stay trapped here to,

like, work things out.

- Yeah.

So you're gonna work here.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, I think I'll probably,
like, if I have a morning call,

take that here, if that's OK.

- Yeah.

- And then take that,
make some breakfast,

and then head to my house
because I don't want

to be in traffic either, so--

- Yeah.

- But, tonight, yeah,
I definitely want to go back,

tidy up the house,
and then my work week is crazy.

So maybe we should,
like, reconvene in, like,

a few days before moving
into our new place.

[tense music]

- Yeah.

I'm just, like,
caught off guard.

I'm just like, OK, if you
think that's best, sure,

but we're still trying
to get to know each other.

Like, I wanted to move
in together with him,

and I thought
he felt the same.

♪

It's been a long week.

But it was so fun, so much fun.

- We spent every day, 24/7,
the last week together,

you know, and I was,
like, starting to notice,

like, I was getting drained.

And I've gotta take a step
back and just digest how I

feel before we
move in together.

All right, this is where
we part ways for a bit.

- ♪ Real love comes
out after dark ♪

- Oh, this looks like
a cozy bed right here.

Oh, and it is!
- Is that a queen?

- Oh, it is a cozy bed.

- Which side do you want?

- Well, because I know
you go up to the bathroom

a lot more than I do--
see, I don't know.

This is hard because I
also wake up earlier, so it

could be easy for me to just--

- But you get up once,
whereas I get up many times.

- So which would you prefer?

- I would always prefer
to sleep on the side--

- OK.
- That's that side.

- Then, yeah, that works.
- But I don't have to.

- No.

Marriage is about
compromise, right?

- Mm.

Did you read that
in a book somewhere?

[laughter]

This is definitely
the beginning

of a new chapter in the book
that is our marriage.

- I feel like I
should put my Pjs on

because I am just like,
I need

to get out of this outfit.

- And I'm hoping,
going forward,

as we get into our routines,
that we can kind of just

continue to be
more of ourselves.

- What do you think?

I'm excited.

These shorts are so short.

Sorry.

- Do you want them
a little shorter?

- No, no, please, please.

Yeah, I mean, I think this
is a really beautiful space.

I mean, I know we were both
really nervous about this,

and I still am.

I mean, again, I have
not lived with another--

- Well, you just did
for the last week.

- Yeah, I know.

It's just the unknown
that I'm scared about, like,

the unknown
of navigating how to,

you know, wake up
and not wake you up,

and the cooking, and cleaning.

Like, all those
sorts of things,

like, I don't know how
to do that with another person.

Also, like, you know,
when you're dating someone,

and in a fight or something,
you can leave.

But, here, it's like,
this is where we're at.

- Yeah, I'd say

I'm probably
less nervous than you.

- Well, you've also
lived with a partner.

- Yeah, the situation that I
was in was more difficult

because her family lived
in the house.

So, the kitchen, I wasn't just
sharing with my girlfriend.

Like, I was sharing with
her siblings and her parents.

Like, that's why I have
very little fears and worries

about us doing this.

You'd have to be very different
than who I think you are

for you to get on my nerves.

I'm not worried about you
annoying me, at the moment.

But I am worried
because, you know,

you haven't lived
with a partner.

You know, what are
the things that I'm

going to do to annoy you?

- And there will probably
be things, you know...

- Sure.
- That come up.

I just need to be transparent,
like, hey,

that bothers me, and I will be.

- Yeah.

I'm more inclined,
like, naturally,

to just see how bad it gets.

- Hmm.
That's not good.

- No, I like to see--

- That's a terrible
way to do things.

- I like to see where
the limit is, sometimes.

- I feel like that's
not being preventative,

and that's not helpful.

- No, but I like to--

- Well, can we not
do that, so that--

- OK, OK.

- All we have to do is
be open to communicate.

If something is bothering us,
just say it.

- I think we'll
know very soon how

we are going to work together
in terms of living together.

It's gonna go one
way or the other--

- Make or break.
- And we're gonna find out.

- Right.
- Yeah.

♪

- I'm a fan of our digs.

How do you feel?
- I like it.

- After telling me that he
cannot see us moving forward

in the marriage,
on the plane ride back,

my husband had a flip
of his emotions,

and we discussed
that he would like

to try to do a full reset.

♪

You know, he
kind of drags me this way,

then drags me that way,
so I'm trying to be hopeful

that my husband
is able to forgive me,

as I have forgiven him.

But, honestly,
I don't know at this point.

[instrumental music playing]

Do you feel like you
actually can do a full reset?

Because you went from, I can't
move forward in this marriage,

and I'm unmoving, to,
I want a full reset.

- You know,
talking with the experts,

it seems like that is
what needs to happen,

which is kind of why I want
to take, you know, the night,

or a couple of days,
or whatever we're

comfortable with, just to
just be away from everything,

think about it, you know,
and just really come back

together with a clear mind.

- Yeah, I think that could
be helpful for us.

Because I actually do like you.
I do care about you.

Like, there are genuine
feelings that have grown,

and I don't want us
to be stuck in Cancun.

- Yeah, that is--

I mean, you know,
it's definitely the goal--

- That's the goal.

- To work out of that,
you know,

because it's easy to
say that, you know,

we just leave it there--

- That's why I'm, like--

- But we also have
to take the right steps

to actually leave it there.

- Right.

- But, you know what,
also, there's definitely

things working for us
to support the things

that we're trying
to get back to.

And so, yeah, so, yeah,
I really do feel hopeful.

I still want to try
a reset, you know,

but we do need to take
some space from each other.

All right, wifey.

I will--I'll talk to you soon.

Yeah?

- See ya.

- See ya!

We just need time to think,
so that, when we do take

this big step, you know,
in living together,

you know, we're two
feet in, not just one.

- See you later, house.

Maybe.

- So, I know we only, like,
just moved in, and haven't

really figured out

- Real plants.

Our plants.
- Yeah.

- Board games.
- Oh, yeah.

- N64 has to come.

- Which one?

- Yours because the one
at my house is garbage.

- OK, so I'll bring my N64.

So you have
a roommate right now.

- Mm-hmm.

- How do you guys
split up chores?

- I think we mostly just like
take care of our own messes,

and then kind of, like, help
out every once in a while,

although I pretty much take out
all the trash and recycling.

- That makes sense.

Are you very clean?

- I'm definitely clean.

I'd say, like, kitchen
and bathroom cleanliness

are very important to me.

- Same.

We'll probably have growing
pains and difficulties.

I think living with anyone
is hard, even your best

friend, your parents.

But, for me, because I'm
feeling drawn to connect

with Austin deeper,
I'm looking forward

to just, like, unfiltered time,
focusing on each other,

and doing a deep dive, rather
than, like, a little tread

in the shallow pool.

We're gonna rock this.

It was hard for me

But, realistically,
in my past, that hasn't

been something that I've done.

there, then I can't give

that can be done in that area,

hands, touching his shoulder,

stroking his back,
just things that,

when you're feeling warm,
to show it physically that way.

- Yeah.

that he feels
that way about you.

You know, I think
you want to be desired.

a little more

hands feels comfy,

conversation pretty much--

No, this does not
feel weird to me.

that I'm displaying

more visible affection.

that's really good.

So there's a couple other
things I want to cover.

Well, let's talk
about religion

because I know that you come to
it from different traditions.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I was raised Christian.

I was actually kicked out
of church when I was ten.

I spoke out against something
that needed to be spoken

out against, as a ten-year-old.

I had to rediscover

what life meant to me.

And for me personally, the best
tools I could give my children

is the understanding
that the world

is gray, many shades of gray.

And I feel that
religion does not

prepare my children
adequately for the world

that they are facing.

- I totally respect.
Don't agree, but I do respect.

- I also think
that families can contain

people who don't agree.

But my sense of is there
shared values about, you know,

what's respectful,
and what's humane,

and how do you want
to live an ethical life,

and those kinds of things,
they can be expressed

in lots of different ways.

- Yeah, I really appreciate
you saying that.

That's, I think,
really helpful for us.

out that there's a lot

we don't know about each other.

I gave him my availability,
and that was that.

- Does that mean there
was no response after you

gave your availability?

- No, there wasn't.

The next response was telling
me that he wanted a divorce.

- OK.

What are you feeling
right now, Orion?

to hurt her with this.

You know, honestly, I thought
that it would give us both

a chance to heal from this.

like he wants to.

You came back to me and said
you want to do a reset,

I don't hold this against you,
we can move through this.

you don't want to continue

the marriage,
even though you literally

sent me a text saying you
want to focus on the future.

I don't think
it's your intention,

so much to the point

mm, there really isn't much
that's gonna, like,

You came in here,

That's what's gonna happen.

Is that fair to say?

yes, it is fair to say.

And, you know,
wanting to be open to this,

I do, but I know we're

because of how you react.

When something comes up,

talked about,
something is overheard,

it does go from 0 to 100.

there's an act.

when we're

feeling uncomfortable,

in a new relationship.

And you have not
had enough time

to get to know one another.

What I am asking of both of you
is to extend even more grace

to one another,
to truly start fresh,

start over, let go

You feel uncomfortable,

is to remove yourself from it.

I do feel confident

protecting yourself.

That's a certain level

off right now.

- OK.

as a perfect marriage,

whether y'all are married
to each other or anybody else.

There's going to be
many uncomfortable moments.

romantic attraction to me

I don't want to twist your arm.

looked like,
