- I don't know what it was.

- But I'm, like--

I'm a good, like,
cuddle partner though, right?

- You're a very good
cuddle partner.

Actually, you're
a very good cuddle-bug.

My four panic attacks had
nothing to do with you.

They were, you know--

- For the record,
they were the cutest

panic attacks I've ever seen.
- [laughs]

- I can give you a preview
if you want a preview.

- I would love a preview.
Go ahead.

- So we got to switch it up
a little bit, so.

- OK.

OK, so I'm the big spoon.
- You're me, right?

- Got it. OK.
- I'm you, and--

- Yep.

- You're nice and, like, calm,
and then--

- Yep.
[laughs]

- You kind of--you wanted
to survey the land real quick.

And to be honest, like,

the first time, I thought
I, like, bumped into you,

or, like, I don't know,

that I accidentally, like,
hit you or something.

And--but then, like,
the second or third time,

I was like, OK, this--

- This is where we live now.

- I'm gonna have to let
her work through this.

- Oh, my gosh.
- This is gonna--

this is my life now.
- This is where we live now.

So I have dealt
with panic attacks

in really stressful situations
for a lot of years.

So anytime my body is
pumped full of cortisol,

it feels like I react
with a panic attack.

They don't happen
when I'm awake.

They just happen at night.
- I was literally about to ask.

Like, is this literally
just when you sleep?

- Just when I'm sleeping.

Don't feel a thing
during the day.

I've never had one
during the day.

It's just when I'm sleeping.
- I almost prefer that,

because, like, if you had them
while you were awake,

then it's like--then I always
have to be ready for them.

So now I just have
to be ready for them

when we get ready for bed.

- Small window of time.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
No, they--and they only happen

when I'm, like, super stressed.

So as soon as things
aren't so stressful,

going to be sleeping
as hard as you.

[laughter]

I've never had
four panic attacks at once.

It probably didn't help
having a brand-new man

that I've never known
at any point in my life

laying next to me.

But I've just
conditioned myself

to sleep really lightly.

I've been alone
for such a long time.

And I didn't have
my sound machine.

I didn't have my humidifier.

I didn't have my essential oils
being diffused.

But I feel like
when you have a partner

that's ready to navigate

something that you really don't
have any control over,

um, it's pretty sweet.

They might just subside.

I might never see them again.

- You know,
going into this first night,

was there any sense
of worry of, like,

OK, is it going to be
a little bit different

as we're winding down

and what's he going to be like?

- Nope.
- OK, good.

- Nope.
There was never a moment

where I was thinking,

when is the other shoe
going to drop?

You're too loved.

People that are
as loved as you are

have got to have a genuineness
and an authenticity to them.

So I love to have you
in my space.

- Yeah?
Just all into it.

Even if it creates
panic attacks,

you'll still allow it?
- Touch me.

Eventually, we'll get over
the panic attacks, I think.

I feel like they'll go.
They'll subside.

One thing that we can only
share with each other is touch.

- Yeah.
- And that, to me,

signifies that we are together,
that we are committed,

and that we want to be
together and committed.

So please touch me.

Touch me.

You know, these things
are always interesting

to get ready for.

There's always, like,
a little bit of, like,

anxiousness, I guess,
just because, I don't know,

Brennan and I don't have
the best trajectory

of having the smoothest
of conversations.

I'm not really worried about

discussing anything
in particular.

I'm always just worried that,
like, something I say,

I think, is going to spark
a reaction out of Brennan,

just because he's
very sensitive, I think,

to these types of topics.

And sometimes,
what I think is totally, like,

not sensitive or a big deal,
he does.

So I just get--

I'm always cautious or--yeah.

Like, I just never know

I'm happy to let him

But for me, I want a husband,
not a friendship.

the commitment,

into the friend zone,

you don't see each other
as romantic partners.

You're looking
at each other as buddies.

You're punching each other

[in video] How about--
how do you deal with conflict?

- I think I deal with it well.

I would say the one part
that I don't do well is,

I'm really sensitive
and emotional.

So I'm really working
on trying to, like,

not be emotional in the way
that I deal with it.

are the ingredients

for a successful marriage?

give and take and compromise.

to realize it's a lot of work,

a few characteristics

of a potential husband.

driven, kind.

- How do you see
yourself cultivating trust

in the marriage?

- Just my actions, honestly.

Just showing her

So I can't even imagine

what it's like growing up
in Santa Fe.

Like, I don't have
a preconceived notion

of what that looks like,
you know?

- So I was born and spent
the first nine years

in Santa Fe.
- OK.

- And then from 9 to 17,
when I graduated high school,

we were in Albuquerque.

But Santa Fe was
a very interesting place.

It was a really culturally
diverse childhood for me.

- OK.
- And so it's been

kind of the foundation
of how I accept

and really thrive
with people today.

Was there a lot
of cultural diversity--

you grew up in Anaheim?

- I definitely was exposed

to a good amount of diversity,

you know,
my mom being Filipino.

My dad was Cypriot/Greek.

So you know, Filipino cuisine
is relatively unique.

And that's what I was used
to growing up, like, eating.

So then if I was
at someone else's house,

that's when I first realized,

oh, OK, like,
there's a difference.

Like, squid isn't normal
for some other cultures.

- I'm curious
if you identify more

with the Filipino side
or the Greek side.

- So growing up,
I definitely would have said

the Filipino side,
just because that was

what I was exposed to more.

Now I have a very healthy
appreciation for both.

The Greek side of my family,

especially, like,
when my dad died,

they made me--in a good way--

feel like an adult
that could handle it at age 14.

- That's phenomenal.

I'm excited to meet
more of your family.

- My mom and sister are
in Vegas.

But her and my mom are,
like, best friends.

- Best friends--BFF.
- Yeah.

Mm-hmm.
- Which is amazing.

Well, I'm looking forward
to meeting them.

- Mm-hmm.
- Does she know

that we're married,
we're together?

Does she know that yet?
- No, she doesn't know.

She doesn't know that yet.

I did tell my mom about
what happened the first time.

And you know, that's something
that's fresh in her mind.

But my sister knows.

You know, I told
my sister about it.

But I asked her not to tell
my mom the second time around,

because I know for my mom,
when I told her

about this potential journey
the first time,

like, it was hard
for her to understand,

why you would want
to go about it this way.

She thought that, you know,
it wasn't a good idea.

- Well, I think her reaction
was totally normal.

And I think her reaction
is also something

that I would 100% expect.

- For me, I'm double-downing
on the fact that,

you know, as things continue
to develop with us,

any concerns she has,
you know, upon meeting you,

most of those, if not all,
will evaporate.

- Yeah.

Like, I'm not trying

other than, like, no disrespect

in the way you treat/talk to me
in public/private setting.

so disrespectful to you

it's the Brennan show,

we're just a few weeks out

from Decision Day.

How has intimacy been?

- Well, we did
the intimacy exercises

and, like, played around with,
like, the handcuffs--

not in the most sexual way,

but in a kind of fun,
cheeky way,

and then had, like,
a little romantic night.

- How sweet.
OK, did you appreciate that?

- Yeah, of course.
Definitely.

- OK.
Did it help set the mood?

- [laughs]

- Yeah.

And I think I've gotten better

about, like, initiating things.

- Is he right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

That was not all the way
believable, Becca.

- [laughing]
- Yeah, no, he's--

yeah, it's--yeah.

- OK.

- It was
my grandma's 97th birthday.

So like,
made a little progress,

and then had to, like, put it
on pause while we were away.

- OK.
- But I did feel it,

like, very much halt
on this trip.

- I've, like, developed
a new allergy to cats.

But my aunt and uncle
have two cats.

My throat and lungs,
like, closed up.

It was hard for me to think
about, like, anything else.

- So obviously,
we weren't going to be doing

sexual things
while we were there.

But like, for me,
it's again just about, like,

connection and stuff like that.

- Sure.
- So to have that halt was--

it put me on edge a little bit,

definitely.
- Mm-hmm.

- I did take it personally
at times.

Like, I was looking
for those little affirmations

to know that what I was doing--
like, I was doing a good job,

or that, like, I was doing OK.

- So the other question
I was gonna ask is--

I mean, everyone is different

about PDA
around family members.

And I'm just curious
if that was playing into it

for you a bit too, Austin.

- Yeah, for sure.
I mean,

like, we're affectionate
towards each other.

But we're not gonna, like,

make out in front
of a bunch of people...

- Yeah, and that's not
what I was...

- Especially family.
- Asking for or talking about.

- Yeah.
Yeah, no, no--I--yeah.

That's not to imply
that you were like that.

- Right, because I think what
I was just hearing you say,

it was not just, like,
not being as touchy-feely.

It was, like,
not being as present.

- Yeah, he was focused
on other things,

which I definitely get
and understand.

I do wish, like,
even when we were away,

like, that there was still
a little bit more flirting,

because I do often
initiate things.

But I just, like--
I don't want to--

I don't know, like,
push things too far

if he's not
feeling comfortable.

- So my recommendation would be
to add that extra layer

of vulnerability and
transparency with each other.

Lean into the vulnerability

by expressing what's happening
internally for you,

or expressing what thoughts
you might be having.

There's always expectations.

And I think it's important
to communicate those

to one another so that we don't
get let down by expectations,

or don't develop
unrealistic expectations.

- Yeah.
- So I want you to spend

some time thinking about,
like, what do you all need

in order to stay in this,
like, positive progression?

- I want to move forward
with him sexually

because I want--
that's what I just want to do.

And like, for me,
it's just a matter of, like,

are we still moving forward?

- Yeah.

I don't think
we'll have any issues.

We just don't have any point

And we...
- That's true.

- Were strangers
up until a few days ago.

- We are.
- We've had conversations

that I didn't even have

in relationships that I was
with for so many years.

So I'm emotionally overwhelmed.

- Yeah.

- I think I'm just kind of
processing emotions

that I've never, ever--
not only not felt before,

but didn't even know
I had the capacity to feel.

- Sure.

kind of all hit me

that tomorrow, reality hits.

we are husband and wife.

Sure, we've only known each
other for a handful of days,

but it's been full immersion
handful of days.

And I'm still learning,

but I'm starting
to get a feel for you,

at least in terms of, like,
where your emotions are at

and how that affects
your demeanor.

Right now, my balance
that I'm trying to figure out

is when it's appropriate
to kind of ask you

and engage you verbally on it,
versus kind of giving you space

to work it out and feel
what you need to feel.

Um--
- No, you shouldn't have to.

- But--
- You shouldn't have to,

because it's not your
responsibility to read my mind.

It's not your responsibility

to feel that I'm having
an emotional moment

and try to figure out
what's wrong with me.

That's not fair.
I experienced today

what I have always
sort of done.

- Mm.
- I internalize things.

I try not to burden
people with them.

But the minute that I start
feeling them too deeply,

I shut down just enough
to make people uncomfortable.

It just got to a point
where I was saying,

I gotta talk about it.
- Sure.

- And if it's just
me having a moment of just

overwhelm of feelings
that I didn't even know I had.

- And I appreciate that.

And I also know that right now,

being supportive is
the best role for me to be in.

I want to get to a space
where you'd conclude,

what's best for me is to,
you know,

cry on his shoulder
and have him comfort me.

Like, I want you
to get to that space.

But I know that
that's gonna take a minute.

- Yeah.
- You know, I'm still learning

about you,
and I may never be able

to fully prescribe
what's best for you.

I may be able
to make suggestions and--

you know, if you give me
that audience, right?

But I know you know
what's best for you.

I think you deserve

to feel comfortable
with prioritizing yourself.

- Yeah.

- And so please, like,
act in your own interest.

And maybe what I would ask
is just trust that I trust you.
