For our couples, the honeymoon is a time to explore romance.
And also, this is a time to understand their differences
as well as their similarities.
So how do you think, so far, all in all,
this honeymoon week has been going?
It's been great.
Honeymoon week has been amazing so far.
It's like I feel like so much has
changed since we've been here.
I know.
And it's like it's been like weeks.
I know.
It's so funny to me to look at this face now.
And then I always think back to seeing your face
for the first time at the altar and being like a pretty smile
and like happy and, you know, meeting you for the first time.
And now it's a smile that just makes
me smile and lights me up.
It's, I mean, it's cool to see that transformation
over a few days.
And I feel that way about your face too.
Yeah, now I just like love to like stare at you.
Yeah, you know.
I'm always like, oh you're so cute.
Yeah. You do say that.
You.
So have we covered the normal date type, getting to know you?
I mean, there's probably things
that we're going to continue to figure out.
I know religion is something we've--
Touched on a little bit, but haven't really talked--
- Touched on. - --about.
I think that's going to be an area where we don't
necessarily mesh perfectly.
Yeah.
It's definitely something that worries me because it's
a bigger issue for you than me.
As far as religion goes, I really wasn't raised
in a religious household.
So it was never something that was really a part of my life.
That's just hard for me, personally,
to just choose one religion and say that this
is the only way to God.
Because I feel like they're all saying the same thing.
I just like spiritual aspects.
Like I believe in higher power or like things together.
Like I told you, even my vows, like I
feel like there was a reason that I
kept going with this process.
It's OK if I want someone who is religious as long as you
don't expect me to change.
I don't expect you to change.
But I also think that you--
From our brief conversation about it before this,
I think you're pretty opposed.
I just feel like most people who are religious are hypocritical.
[dramatic sound]
And they like to judge people because I
think that's like their shield to judge.
In the most respectful way possible,
I think you're being a little judgmental.
I don't think it's as black and white as you think it is.
Religiously, Amber and I don't line up.
I wouldn't characterize myself as very religious,
but I am religious.
And I do have a strong faith and it's something
that's important to me.
So it's something we're going to have to figure out.
Maybe some of her beliefs about religion and openness
to religion can change.
There's just no guarantee that I'm going to feel
the same way that you do.
I would never ask you to feel the same way.
I have no idea how we work through this.
When it comes to religion, I think
it was a little bit of a bigger deal than I initially realized.
What do you expect spiritually from your spouse?
I don't like to go to church every week.
Right, right.
Yes, I think someone who is extreme on either side
would be tough for me.
I couldn't be an atheist.
The more Amber and I talk, it's becoming clear to me
that I may have undersold to the experts how important
religion really is to me.
Yeah?
I don't want to have to have a struggle.
Probably not ideal for both of us.
Religiously, Amber and I don't line up.
It is a concern I don't know how we're going to deal with that.
Is it something that makes you want to walk
away from this relationship?
[dramatic sound]
- Not at all. - No?
OK.
I mean, that's a good place to start.
At this moment, I'm feeling more hopeful
that things will work out.
And you just never know, going into the situation
with a complete stranger, but I like Dave a lot.
He's everything that I wanted and I'm really,
really hoping that this works.
You want to try some dessert?
Yes.
I'm actually really glad we had these conversations tonight.
Me too.
Because I was worried about talking about this stuff,
but it actually made me feel like a lot better.
Yeah.
I think the one thing that we definitely
do have is an ability to discuss things in a mature way.
You know, at the end of each conversation,
I feel like we still have each other's back,
which I know I think is probably at this point
the foundation of our relationship,
is that I'm going to have your back.
And I believe that you have my-- - I do have your--
- --back. - --back.
I know you do. Cheers.
Cheers. [music playing]
