• 1:43
  Speaker 2: guys in the pond. So what are you looking for? Like,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: what is the age range you typically like today? I
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: like to go a little older.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I love that, yes, because I feel like men's brains
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: are like behind like.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Six years genuinely are.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: But plus no.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Literally, so I definitely like a little older. I would say,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: like thirty to thirty five. It is like kind of
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: what I look for, ready to settle down, ready for
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: kids hopefully.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: But then again, I'm like, do I want kids? Yes? Okay, yeah,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: me too, like tooang to like look for like a
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: guy who wants that as well? Do you like younger
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: at all? Have you ever tried dating you? No? I
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: haven't ever.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: No, I mean like I've maybe talked to like a
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: couple youngers, but I'm like, I don't even take them
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: seriously because I'm like, there's just no way I love
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: a younger guy.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Actually, I'm literally dying because we have like these same
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: ex boyfriends on the show.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Literally. Yeah, No, I'm definitely older. If I had to, Okay,
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I choose for sure.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Older, could have been married. Would you ever date someone
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: who's been divorced? Yeah, if it's like a I don't know,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: it's so hard.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: I guess it just depends on the situation, like if
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: it's like still messy and they're like in it still,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: because you know, like after divorce sometimes you can still
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: like have ties to everything.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's ever really over in that situation,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: like especially when it happens young. Yeah, like I know,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: what did you do? First of all? What did you do?
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: Read?
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: Say?
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Where was that? Seriously? No, actually I need to know
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: what happened because that's like a huge thing. I've thought
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: about that before.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because they're like, yeah, why didn't it work out?
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Like what happened?
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: What?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: No, I definitely would have I wouldn't be open to it,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: but I would have to know, like a lot of details.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: What about if they like had kids and we're doing like,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: would you date someone that I already had kids? Yeah?
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just because well okay, because my mom had me
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: and then my dad dated her and I'm like, oh
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: my gosh, like he was like the best thing that
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: happened to me. So I feel like I would definitely
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: love that.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and I love kids. Yes, I can see it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: I can see it. Okay, we obviously want to get married,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: we want to have kids. All right, let's get down
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: to like situations. So if a guy said his last
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: relationship ended because he cheated, would you still date him
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: he cheated?
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: This is a tough, tough no. That actually is really
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: tough question. Have you ever been cheated on in a relationship?
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Not that I know of, but I have like a
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: feeling that we all seriously yeah, not that I know of,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: but I don't know. I feel like the saying like
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: once a cheater, always a cheater is kind of like
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: real it literally is. Yeah, So I'm like, Okay, if
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: you're gonna cheat on her, then you'll probably cheat on me.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: And like what was she doing that? You felt? Because
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: there's always a story, Yes, Like even when my situation happened,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Like when I got cheated, I was like, oh, because
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: she was acting this way then I had always want
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: to blame. They always want to blame. So it's like,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: what are we going to be doing when they cheat
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: on us?
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know it's always there's always a story to it.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, no, you just you're just a cheater.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, can you like be loyal for one moment? Sorry,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: like I'm being a little bit negative, but men just
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: they they need to be put in their place a
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: little bit. Yeah, especially with this dating pool and the
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: dating pool that me and Mercedes are in, especially like
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: spin on reality TV, Like they you know, they're interesting.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I feel like we could go on about that. Okay,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: do you Oh, I feel like you would? Do you
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: like you have with tattoos?
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: I do?

• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Sea, Yes, literally to a tea and he could like
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: throw you around, Yes, exactly like that.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: If you're ripped from Yellowstone, please hit up my friend Mercedes.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: We are on the lookout for some cowboys here at
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: Bottle Rock tonight and with tattoos.

  Speaker 2: Yes, Okay, this is a good one too. Does height
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: matter you A short key? I know.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: Actually I've dated a couple like not short. I would
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: say like five eleven, which is that considered short?
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Tyler was five eleven? No, he was he. I don't know,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: there's no I feel like me and him were like
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: same height, not same, but I could wear heels.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: He probably be like, yeah, well when I wore heels,
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: we were like the same height. Yeah.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: So I'm like, and I'm five seven, Tyler, how tall
• 6:10

• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know graduations by the way, you know, right, No,
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: they're Yeah. But so my first ex he was like
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: five eleven, so he was a little shorter.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: So I don't know.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, I definitely like love like a tall man.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: Like when I see a tall man, I'm like, whoa
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: like you like get bumped up a little bit. But
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I don't think if.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: He was shorter, I'd be like completely cut him out.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I feel like with a tall guy, I'll let more
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: red flags, like saying whip through the cracks because he's tall,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: And it's like, how are you supposed to get a
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: guy he's tall and perfect? Literally he can get away
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: a little more. If you're six five, that's so.
• 6:54
  Speaker 7: True that every inch you are above six foot the
• 6:59
  Speaker 7: more more so true.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: And you cheat, I mean, don't, don't. Don't do it again.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: But if you I love and't do it, you're out.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: It's drinking.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: It has to be perfect. But not taking wooden date
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: because he doesn't matter a guy of course not. Yeah, okay,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: So what are the biggest red flags you won't tolerate.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: I feel like if they like talk like crap about
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: their family, Like, I feel like that's such a red flag.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Like if you're like especially like your mom or something.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know, unless the situation is weird.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: No, it's so true.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I feel like, ex yeah, honestly, just talking about anyone.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: I feel like that's like if you have like a
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: negative like vibe about that, and.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: I'm like, like, that's a red flag.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: But I don't, like, have you ever dated a guy
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: that like didn't have a lot of close friends kind
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: of one them?
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because I went on his friends later on, but
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: you didn't have like friends from childhood.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, that's right, it's.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: A little weird. Yeah, that's kind of something I look
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: for and I'm like, Okay, who are your friends? Like,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: what are your friends like? Because if they don't have
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: a lot of people that want to be close to them,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: and like, what's wrong with you? Yes?
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: No, And like your friend group like tells so much
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: about you, especially as you get older, Like if you
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: look at your friends, you'll know, like what the that person's.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Like, because you really are like kind of a mesh
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: of like the people that you surround yourself with. Yeah yeah, no, genuinely,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I could think of so many red flags though, been
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: on TV? Would you date someone else who's been on TV? Yeah?
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: I think so. Yeah. Yeah, so that's not a red

• 14:01
  Speaker 4: Just like who was there there?
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: It was, Oh, why am I forgetting his name? That's
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: so bad. The first guy that Kyle wanted to.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Do with will well yeah, no, which was so sweet,
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: like Angel he is he's very emotional and he's so sweet,
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: like I love him.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: But I was like, this is just not for me.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: So you want to be like or do you feel
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: like you're emotional like.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: It's a partner, Yeah, but only when I get really comfortable,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: like not out of the out of the gate.
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: No.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: So you need someone like that's going to be there
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: to support you. You don't want to like be the
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: one like coddling all the ashes. But once in a
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: while was fine. She's like you can cry once a
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: year and I will tell it no more after that.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: No, And obviously like I would like, I'm good with
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: the emotions, but I just I feel like I have
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: to be like connected really deep to be like, oh
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: my gosh, like let me like take care of you,
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: you know, totally, not just like if it's like a
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: crush your cry and I'm like, oh, if it's again.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Like you like he's like so emotional because he was
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: like he's like yearning, he's crying. No, Okay, next question, Okay,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: are you looking for someone who identifies as religious or spiritual?
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I know you are religious, yes, so is that something
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: you are also looking for in a partner that's really
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: important on the same page for sure. Yeah.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: And if they're not, like I just want them to
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: be open to religion, like they don't have to be
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: like practicing or anything.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: But if they're like, okay.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: Like I respect to you, like I respect what you think,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: and they're like open to whatever, then I'm okay with
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: that too. It's not like I need like someone who's like.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: The same exactly. Yes, what if it was someone who
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: wasn't religious but like fully supportive of you and like
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: was like I'll go to church with you, I'll like
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: bring my kids up in the church wherever you want,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: but like I personally am not that religious. Would that
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: be something you were okay with or you feel like
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: I'd be okay with that?
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just like open. Yeah, that's actually really big. I
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: think that's a huge question. I always forgot to ask
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: that on the show too. I know I always forget
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: to ask that too. I was like, oh, I should
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: have probably right about that. That's really important. Okay, what
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: kind of hair do you like and a guy short,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: long color? Would you ever date a bald guy? A
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: bald guy? Would you?
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: One of the girls from our show, she's about to
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: get married and her future husband is bald and it's
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: actually kind of hot. Yeah, I think it can beard. Yeah,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: I don't think.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like I mean, it would.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Just be depending on how he rocked it.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, for sure, he would have to have the vibe. Yeah,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, Yeah, for sure. I used to love
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: a man with long hair, Like if you had a
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: man bun.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: I don't see that in college. In college if you curling, no,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I literally.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: But like seriously, for you had a manba And like
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: same with the six five, Like if you had Amanda
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: and you could do whatever you like I'm like, this.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Is the most shocking vision you. Yeah, I cannot see
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: you with the longer guy.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: And I still do like kind of like not like
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: long as long as I did in college, but like
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: a mullet like one of those like ough.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: I was gonna ask, okay because the mullet and mustache
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: is like so a thing. But it like kind of
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: like started in like Nashville like that like the country.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: Says Riley.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm kind of into it. I'm so into it.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Is it still in? There? Are the guys like changing now?
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: No, literally everyone looks the same in Nashville because everyone
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: has the mustache in the hair.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Wait, I love that. Maybe I need to come to
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Nashville just because I just want to look at them
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: like truly. Okay, when it comes to making moves, do
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: you like to be bold and take the lead or
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: do you like men who are more forward.
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: I like men who are more forward.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: Me too.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: I like feeling like a little princess that's been like, you.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Know, pursued. Yeah, I feel that we want to be
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: pursued so bad and like it's just not like when
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I go watch at the bars, like I cannot tell
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: you it had to be like over a year ago,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: last time someone came up to.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Me, Oh, I know, No, it's actually crazy. No one,
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: none of the guys are not coming up.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: That's why people said, like I need to go like
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: to meet people, because apparently they go up to you.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah they do, which is like what why is that
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: happening over there but not here? Like what did we
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: where did we go wrong? I think culturally?
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Like, well, so I was in England like last year
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: with my friend Jill, and we would just be walking
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: by a pub and guys like start trying to talk
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: to you because I think they just it's like normal
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: for them to talk to everyone. Yeah, and it's not.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: I think here guys are like afraid to be rejected.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: It's not as like normal to just talk to everyone. Yeah,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: which I wish it was. It would be so much
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: easier to meet someone, and it's just way more fun.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Like I want to go out and I want to
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: meet people, like even if I'm not like we're not
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: like date like trying to date.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Just like just meeting a friend.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not like even that doesn't even really happen.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Do you feel like in Nashville, like cause there are
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: like a lot of bars. Is it still hard to
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: like meet a guy out in that scene? Like guys
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: are just what are they doing? Just sitting at the
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: bar drinking a beer?

  Speaker 2: I don't know? Okay, So on the way to Bottle
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Rock though, actually was development in mercedes dating life. So,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: like you know, any single girl, We're here at this
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: gorgeous pool and we both posted thirst trap.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: Obviously you gotta do it. You gotta post the thirst
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: you and the.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Goal is to get the swipe up, and it's always
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: from one person. Yes, and we got you know, the
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: one person.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: We succeeded there, but then it was kind of downhill
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: from there.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: So basically what happened was Mercedes got the swipe up
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: from this guy that she has been kind of interested in. Again,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: like she's a single woman, yes, and and anything is
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: up for grabs at this point. But he swiped up
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: and he did flame emoji O the flame yes, yes,
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: and so she just what did she just like I
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: just liked it because I'm like, what do you say
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: to a flame? You like? Respond?
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: To that. Right, if your guy listening to this, don't
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: do a flame. It's you got to like say say
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: something more at least just like shoot your shot. Yes,
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: but they love the flame emoji. And then what did
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: he write back?
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: And when this is all happening on the way to
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: the way, Yes, yeah, what did he?
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: So?
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: I just liked it because I was like, what do
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: I say to that? And then he said are you
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: staying there? Are you staying there all weekend?
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: No?
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: Because I can't open his most recent message.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Oh okay, So he said are you staying there all weekend?
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: And then I think I was like, I'm coming home tomorrow.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: And then he said are you coming to Nashville?
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: And I lie, okay, so and I say, yes.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: He's going on to Nashville. But we were telling him
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: she was so when he asked her out, she could
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: say she wasn't available. She's so busy, busy woman with
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: multiple plans and if you want to get on the itinerary,
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: you have to get in the schedule. And what did
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: he say back? I don't remember what he said, see
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: you there?
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, see you there or see you here? And
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: I was like, see me where?
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Like what do you mean, so I didn't reply, and
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: then he did it again and he was like when
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: when are you getting in town or something like that.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so Kaylin who is married, so we trust Kaylens.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: She's got the ring, so she has all the insight
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: on how to how to command down.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: She said, he's being sassy, so be sassy back. And
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Mercedes said, I missed the part where you asked me
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: on to date, yes, which I think was a great response. Yeah,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: it really was.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: And then he said, oh yeah, I did forget to
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: do that or something and I'm like okay, and then
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: which was like so weird. And then I said the
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: schedule is filling up and then he was like okay,
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: like meet me here tomorrow blah blah blah.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: But so we got the response we wanted. It just
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: took twelve hours and four women and there's several classes
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: of wine. But that, you know, that is modern day
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: dating really, not that it's stuff out here. While we
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: were there, because Mercedes is single, we all had our
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: eyes open.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, I had three wing women with me. It was
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: it was really amazing.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: Every single guy we saw were like Mercedes, this guy,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: this guy.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: But literally everyone like had girlfriends. I feel like there
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: was a lot of couple people there. Bottar Rock is
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: definitely an older crowd.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: It's definitely more of like a relationship type vibe, I
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: think for sure. But we did need someone. We did,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: and Mercedes did get his number.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: I did.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, actually, Genevieve, I think.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, woman, she did. She went up to him and
