Welcome back to The Ready to Love Houston Reunion Special.
Liz and Jason took different paths in their journey
to find each other.
Those paths eventually led to an intersection of their own.
Here's a look.
You have to be vulnerable.
But also you have to be conscious of your heart.
Mmm.
I'm sorry, go ahead.
OK, I like that.
Thank you.
I really love Jason's vibe.
I love the person that he is.
And I want to get to know him more.
How you feel about sex before marriage?
Abstinence, celibacy.
If you're for it, I will support you.
It'll be a struggle.
I only gave out two roses my whole life.
The first one, I gave to my mother.
The second one, I gave to my stepmother.
Throughout this entire process, you have kept it here--
honest, and your resilience.
And white represents purity.
You are pure of heart a woman.
So I'd be honored if you accept this from me.
Because you are worth it.
And you are worth the pursuit.
Would you accept this from me?
Oh, my [INAUDIBLE].
I like me some Liz.
I ain't gonna lie.
Yeah, boy.
I'm so excited.
You already know my selection.
I chose you.
God help me.
My heart's fluttering.
Momma, I got a man.
I got a man.
I'm bringing him home.
You're good.
That was cute.
THOMAS MILES: Obviously, you guys left happy.
Mm hmm.
Liz, tell me.
What is it that works about the two of you?
Honesty.
I admire that about this man.
It's a character trait that you do not
find a lot these days, which is the one thing
that really drew me to him--
his honesty, his consistency, his pursuit of me,
and his strong spiritual groundedness.
And our communication is really good.
That's what makes it work.
Jason, what works for you?
She positions herself to be pursued.
And a lot of times for me, I've run
into women that do not know how to move
if somebody is pursuing them.
And with her, she's strong.
And she allowed me to go through this entire process
and figure out what was best for me.
And even afterwards, we didn't miss a beat.
Everything stayed the same.
If anything, it kind of sped up.
You know?
So-- from hanging out, even if she's having a real tough day
or anything regarding work, or family, or whatever,
I've gone out the way.
THOMAS MILES: I got to ask this question,
you know, because y'all evidently are clearly
attracted to each other.
Yes.
THOMAS MILES: How's the intimacy?
Are we still we still waiting on something.
It's good.
You know, we're intimate.
But my standards are still my standards.
THOMAS MILES: How you-- Wait, how you--
LIZ: How you be intimate?
I mean, we're affectionate. We hug.
We kiss. You know?
I'm not going to push up on her.
So I know her limits.
I know what she's looking for.
I know her standards.
We both talked about it.
And so for me, you know, I understand
how to move as a man with a woman
if we are talking about something
serious down the road.
THOMAS MILES: Right.
And so I won't allow anything to go
past a certain point, period.
You know? - There you go.
Just out of respect for her--
THOMAS MILES: I can respect that.
--and myself, and God. So--
THOMAS MILES: OK.
Yeah.
THOMAS MILES: Since the process, have you seen a bigger
growth in the relationship, since the lights
and cameras are off?
Oh, definitely.
Yes.
I mean, he's met my family.
They love him.
I've met his family.
Like, it's real. - Yes.
THOMAS MILES: That means the relationship is growing?
Yes.
You know, a lot of times when I was dating,
I would find myself giving more, you know,
to make a relationship or make something work or happen.
And it's not like that.
Like, I feel safe with him.
You know, a lot of the qualities that he has reminds
me of my dad, like really.
Whoa.
And regardless of what happens on our journey,
I know that we'll always have a lifetime connection.
THOMAS MILES: Where are you now?
JASON: Dating exclusively.
THOMAS MILES: Are you in a relationship?
Yes, I guess you could say that.
Yeah, pretty much.
Let's give them around of applause.
Yeah.
THOMAS MILES: Yes, Yes, Yes.
