So it sounds like everyone else is going to be moving in
together, and sharing an apartment,
and continuing on this journey.
So I'm just curious, you know, what your plans are for that.
So we haven't had a chance to talk about it yet.
But my thought was, you could move into the apartment
for the first half, and then I could move in
in the second half because I know
we both want to be a part of it because I
know I love you all so much.
And just because it didn't work out in a romantic sense,
that doesn't mean that we shouldn't
be able to participate when we're both still sitting here
and want to do that, in my opinion.
I had not heard that strategy.
[music playing]
That's not something I'm interested in.
I love all of you.
I didn't come here for you guys.
The notion that we would share this experience like divorced
parents deciding which weekend days where we were going
to spend with our children-- our children
being the other couples--
is absurd.
We're not picking weekends.
This isn't a draft.
At this point, I believe she is continuing through this process
because she wants to live in the apartment building,
not because of anything having anything
to do with our marriage.
I can't keep putting myself out there unless I get
something that's not zero back.
JASMINA: I like that.
ALYSSA: Him saying I'm not trying isn't true.
For him not to want to compromise,
you know, when I'm trying to think of solutions
to these problems that we're having, and he doesn't want
to entertain them, you know, that's disappointing to me
because Chris seems to be trying actively to make me look bad.
And it won't happen because I'm not a bad person.
It's been a tough journey for me.
I just want everybody to remember that,
like, I came in this with the best intentions
as everyone else did, and put in all the work
like everyone else did.
I feel happy that I can say that.
But just know that it hurts that this happened this way for me.
This hasn't been easy for me.
[music playing]
(SNIFFLING) And--
[music playing]
It's OK.
We understand.
[music playing]
CHRIS: All talk aside, I just need
to know if you are all out.
That's it.
That's the only question I have.
[music playing]
Do you understand what he's saying?
Yeah.
But I think it's not a conversation
in front of everybody.
JASMINA: Yeah, exactly.
Never is.
Well, I think you have to also respect her decision
if she doesn't want to talk about personal things in front
of people.
Yeah, that's what it is.
So if you guys do owe each other a conversation--
Absolutely, you do.
JASMINA: --which I think you should have.
You know, I know you have questions
that you want answered.
And I had a conversation with Alyssa earlier,
and she's willing to sit down with you
and answer every question that you have.
And I feel like once you guys have that conversation,
you would know how to move going forward.
But I also do agree that it's not our business.
Yeah, she doesn't really need to speak
about it in front of us.
Yeah.
If I put myself in Chris' shoes, my whole honeymoon,
I haven't had an answer.
CHRIS: Well, you know, there's things that I can't talk about
and this and that, those are excuses.
I feel so bad for the man.
His heart is so big, though, that he's hoping for that 1%
so he could give his 100 still.
Either someone's trying or they're not.
ALYSSA: I know, but that's not fair to say, though,
because I'm still sitting here with everyone,
including you next to me.
And so you can't say that I'm not
trying because I'm still here.
And I had many chances to leave, and I didn't.
OK.
Does that mean that you're trying to decide
whether or not to try?
Well, I think I've said it that I'm not going
to talk about that right now.
And I think I would appreciate it
if you could respect that because we're in a huge group.
And, like I said, that's not something
I can just sit here and say, like, yes or no to right now.
I mean, you could have flown out yesterday, but what is
Boston's temperature right now?
60 degrees.
We're in 90 degrees.
So let's be real.
That was a bull [bleep] answer, but it makes him feel good
to go to sleep at night that she thinks she has
given even half the effort, or a quarter,
or even a piece of what--
I can't talk other couples.
But what I've done for my wife to make her smile,
she's out of her mind.
