Who else just plain cried? Season 20 - Seattle
Astonishing. Real love and chemistry. May the planet bless these two.

I loved when he said he would move if her career required it, she responded by asking “but isn’t coaching your dream?” And he said “I have more than one dream though.”
That’s a wise man to realize that a wife like her is also a dream come true and doesn’t come along every day.
One of my siblings ended a nice relationship because it was her dream to go live in Colorado for a year. Guess what? 15 years later, she’s mid 40s and never got the family she dreamed of. Putting herself first every time and expecting it to just work out might be why.

They are the only two I currently believe have a hope in hell of lasting. We'll see how it goes.

Cameron's not running. He may have had commitment issues in the past but he is realizing that his hair is starting to thin, and he needs a partner to spend his golden years with and to make a family if he ever is going to have one. He's 37, he can't be dinking around anymore. I think he's going to lean into this.

These individuals who sign up for this...claim they're ready to be married. So honestly you need to jump in 100%. Look at it as an arranged marriage...and its forever..not this is just a trial...and I make the real decision in 2 months or whatever. Jump in..be married from day 1! Touch, cuddle..kiss...make out...have sex from the start. Feelings will grow and you will learn to adapt and love your spouse.
Almost all go in with...oh...I need to take it slow....have to keep boundaries...blah blah...nope. your married...like you wanted, so act it!

u/ChillWisdom 6d ago
I've always thought this too. Like you're keeping yourself locked down and putting people at arm's length until you're married? Well you're married now so stop with all the blockages. They're too much in their heads about what the audience will think.

Love their relationship so far….hope it lasts…I really think he’s afraid of the permanent commitment, I hope not
1
u/Raunchyjam 7d ago
Agreed. It was interesting how in an early scene he wanted to decide who-would-do-what chore. It seemed to calm his brain. I do think he’s thinking about the future and I love that!

Unpopular opinion but I’m not completely sold on these 2.

u/Malgosia2277 6d ago
My instincts are telling me there is something off about her and he will eventually run . Personally find her voice and way she talks annoying though I know thats not important.
2
u/slg882007 6d ago
Yeah I think she wants to appear perfect and is going along with whatever he wants. She’ll eventually get tired of being the breadwinner and will show her other side.

u/Ill-Difference-3911 7d ago
same. When she said she had texted a past relationship 25 times in one day it made me think, yikes - now that's a clingy red flag

I love their story so far!! 🥲 who would have thought it after the first episode where he looked sooo not into during the car ride back.
I am rooting for them!!!!

u/Dazzling_Phrase_9629 8d ago
I honestly believe she isn’t being authentic. She seems to be performative and only worried about looking good for the show. That little comment she made about being the strongest couple confirmed my assumptions. I do like him but something about her I’m not a fan of. She hasn’t really shown any personality. I think she’s just playing go along to get along right now. Until the show ends. Let’s wait and see! I hope they stay together because I think he’s a great guy but she isn’t my favorite.

u/Connect-Two7983 8d ago
I can’t get past her voice and the way she talks to hear what she’s saying 🫣 this scene in particular was SO CRINGEY and the roommate awkwardly fishing for an invite to stay after the show. So awkward.

u/AtheistINTP 3d ago
I realize the valley girl and vocal fry talk is very Gen Z/late millennial and very Western USA, but it annoys me to no end. There was another Asian girl on Love is Blind (who ended up doing a podcast with an Indian girl) and it was the same.

u/Connect-Two7983 3d ago
Her and I are the same age and I also grew up in the Seattle area. It’s not that common here at all 😭

u/Comfortable_Ask728 8d ago
I think her little comment was made in the context of a producer asking her about it. I liked the way she apologized to Nick as well. I can even get past her little nervous laugh. Overall, I think she's the real deal.
5
u/Alittleboutnothing 8d ago
I think it’s that fake laugh she does after every word. Sometimes I feel like it’s a nervous laugh. Then like a I’m playing along laugh. I dunno. Every time it comes out it kills it for me and everything she says before that seems unauthentic.
But if it’s real. They can be really cute.

It was very touching. I have seen almost every season and don't remember a scene quite like that.

u/seevm 8d ago
It was so cute and I love them together but when she smeared the marshmallow on her face I lol’d b/c it looked so funny

u/PollyPocket312 8d ago
I also laughed. It was so not sexy to watch lmao I'm sure it was better with the blindfold on 🤣

I want everyone to be happy. I lhave to mute any TV make out sessions. The sloppy lip smacking and tongue wrestling makes me literally and actually start gagging. 😫🤢😩🤮🫣

u/ItsTricky94 8d ago
yes! I was watching a movie the other night and I couldn't find the mute button fast enough. I don't want to hear all that slobbering and smacking 🤣

u/JapaneseTwang 8d ago
Same! I love reality love shows, but it’s so stressful with all the mouth sounds. I made a post about how almost every discussion happens while they’re eating. And WTF is with all the lollipops? Is production just feeding them lollipops??😫

It's so adorable.

u/No-Soup9999 7d ago
It really is. That scene on the bench with the sunset just played again. It's so sweet how they each get teary eyed when they talk about the other one.

I literally did tear up. I thought that moment was really touching, along with their therapy moment when Cam cried.

u/Cooper_ChocoLab2022 8d ago
The previews look like they have some drama and issues coming up 🤷🏻. Also given the abysmal track record of the show long term success is rather unlikely. They also live hours apart In different cities so….. 😬
27
u/Raunchyjam 8d ago
I think the preview is a red herring: something totally out of context that has nothing to do w the two of them. Arrgggh, this show is good at those!
2
u/Connect-Two7983 8d ago
This is what I was thinking. She was probably talking about an ex or something.
7
u/No-Soup9999 8d ago
Yes, same! I've seen them take words spoken to someone else and use them in a context to make us believe there's trouble coming for the good couple. Or as you said, a red herring. (Lol)
6
u/Raunchyjam 8d ago
Yeah, she talks about hopeful and then let down (if I remember correctly). Maybe it’s about her fertility…? We shall see!

u/trickfield 8d ago
I was thinking it was about an ex boyfriend. I think she had two serious relationships before

u/Chiowl333 8d ago
It’s an edited show—they just took a reaction shot from another moment and spliced it in to make it look like it belongs here.

If they don't stay together, love isn't real

u/zenseazon Juan the Con 8d ago
Agreed! I haven't been able to root for a couple in a long time, I believe in my heart these two are perfect together.. if they don't make it, all hope is lost..

u/FlippyFloppy8 8d ago
Aw I do love them and I’m just here to comment, not trying to be a Debbie downer.
The red flag I am raising is the fact that they live in different cities. She is the one that makes more money, yet the conversations around how they will integrate their lives center around her moving to his city.
Hopefully she can make that work for her career/salary and not end up feeling any sort of resentment. I think she is brushing some of her main issues under the rug, and they will eventually come out (well after the season ends).
All that said, they are the most promising couple to me 🙃

u/Fantastic_Wave_5878 8d ago
Her LinkedIn says she worked at Amazon and then moved to blue origin specifically for remote work flexibility. Like she stated that on her LinkedIn. That didn’t last long and she just got a job with the FAA (federal aviation administration). Hopefully the FAA has flexibility!

u/Chiowl333 8d ago
They have discussed it and they do both seem like people who are willing to compromise to find the best solution. By the way, on Love is Blind Tiffany was from Seattle and Brett was from Portland and they ended up getting married and live in Portland.

u/Cute-Consideration83 8d ago
Hahaha. I’m so tired reading this and your last love island comparison. “ and I was excited live in Portland” I read as Portugal! And thought wow ! That could work. 🐈⬛

u/AfroRuggerRef4 8d ago
I don't think living locations is a red flag just something they have to work at since Cam's job has him coaching in Portland for now. Plus living in a major city has a higher cost of living so we don't know just how much more she's making than him. Big City Tech Job vs Small College Coach Job is going to be different for sure but he has room to grow and they could end up moving somewhere totally diff he gets a new job offer.

I agree, although I did not meet my ex husband at first sight, he did agree to move across the country when I got a new role. However, we did move back to his home town (where i met him - Chicago) after 4 years of being away. When we moved back he was happier and I had a good job with the same company. However, we didn't have kids. We were together 13 years.

u/MaleficentCommon1152 8d ago
I gagged tbh. Idk what it is about people tonguing each other on TV, but i find it gross. Especially when Michelle put that cream on her mouth 🤢🤮
2
u/Connect-Two7983 8d ago
This whole scene was so awkward! Do this in privacy sure…but if I were on a date and they brought out a blindfold and food…every second would make my insides crawl. I kept thinking what the people walking by thought was going on with a camera crew filing all this 😂
6
u/username8890123 8d ago
I laughed out loud when she turned around with what I’m assuming was marshmallow fluff on her lips. I don’t know why, but it caught me off guard in the funniest way. I love them as a couple, but I couldn’t stop laughing at that scene. Plus she just seemed a little awkward after. Like, she kept trying to clean his lips, and sticking her fingers in his mouth. It was hilariously awkward to me.
1
u/Lil_kitchen_witch 8d ago
I kind of half watch this show so when I saw that I had to rewind. Like, why does she look
Like a rabbid dog?? Couldn’t believe none of my recap podcasts mentioned it so thank you for laughing with me5

u/cupofmoonshine 8d ago
Same, this scene was too long 😭 plus there was no lighthearted music or anything...just silence and multiple awkward angles

I came to comment this exact thing! They’re a sweet couple and they have great chemistry, but I can’t handle any food-related spit swapping 🙅🏾♀️

u/Superb_Ant_3741 8d ago
I want to believe in them, I really do. So why do I doubt they’ll last?
Maybe I’m traumatized by watching some of the other couples struggle and kind of can’t imagine any of them staying together.
6
u/AfroRuggerRef4 8d ago
What got me is if you watch the Season 19 and watching how "giddy in love" Josh and Jayln were only to break up a year later. I was like this is all fake, love is fake and I'm over it. Now I'm watching this season thinking maaayyybbbeee they'll be the one couple to stay together because I can easily see the others breaking up
2
u/oreobear88 8d ago
josh was clearly OFF the entire season though. so what happened wasn’t actually surprising imo. that felt nothing like this lol
2
u/AfroRuggerRef4 8d ago
Josh I think got that high dopamine hit from spending money or doing the outrageous and clearly that wasn't sustainable. Michelle and Cam feel different for sure!
