Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, Hierrow.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Are you two doing today good?
Speaker 3 (00:04):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Absolutely fantastic, Very excited to share a conversation with you,
because what you're doing on ninety day hunt for love
is something that so many people in vision they think
they think they can do it. But you guys are
living it. Yeah, but to live it the way that
you do. And I have seen the emotion, I have
seen the tears, I've experienced it with you. But my god,
(00:27):
I mean, how are you protecting your heart?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Great question. I don't know if we are protecting our heart.
I feel like our hearts are you know, vulnerable, and
we're you know, we're going in there at one hundred
percent and all trying to you know, have a chance
at love. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I mean from day one the mass Grade party, you
have to let your mask down, Like say, you're kind
of letting your mask down online people see the real
version of you, right, not the face you put on
for the world. So yeah, some hearts are going to
get broken.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That's so funny that you bring that up, because this
past weekend I was with T. D. Jakes and he
brought up the fact that he was talking about how
couples when they meet and like on your show, you
meet and then you think you know the person you're
falling in love with, but you don't not until three
years goes by. So therefore I'm thinking about you guys, going,
how are you dealing with this?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I'd say three weeks at the resort is probably like
three years in real life because we're with each other
twenty four seven, So you're going to see every part
in them, every part of them. You know how they
say you don't know somebody until you travel with them,
you see, like or live with them, yeah, or live
with them. So basically we're living with these people, were
traveling with them because we're into lou Mexico, and then
we're in stressful situations.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
And you know what also helped is we had dating
coaches and relationship coaches and did really fun workshops. So
with the help of the dating coaches and with the
activities of that they put on for us like hot
tub speed dating, flirting, one oh one single Olympics. With
all that help, we were able to see people's true
colors rather quickly. And you know, I would say, like
(02:01):
an online dating or dating in everyday life.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Out here in the real world, did it change you then,
because I mean, are you more aware of other people
as you walk by them at a mall or at
a movie theater.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Well, I think the show definitely changed me. You know,
looking back at some of the things that I did,
I would probably question myself and be like, hey, at
least maybe you shouldn't have done that, maybe you shouldn't
have come on too quick. But it wouldn't change it
for the world, because looking back, it's kind of shaped
me to who I am, and we're just two misunderstood
girls trying to navigate this thing.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Being open like that and transparent. Is that something that
you picked up on the show or have you, guys
always been this way?
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I feel I've always been like sensitive or vulnerable or
like open.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I feel like I have no filter and something I
learned to say, have more of a filter now, so
as maybe the opposite. But it's amazing, such a great experience.
You know, you wake up one morning thinking you have
a connection with someone, and you go to bed with
a completely different connection. And you know, there's love triangles,
love squares, love hexagons. You know, people that you don't
(03:04):
think end up together end up together. Girls fighting over guys.
The ambulance people breaking their leg, guys fighting, it is messy.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yes, Well what about this question flirting versus romance? I
mean one of them has to win out here, and
then how can you easily spot somebody who's just flirting around?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, I'd say I went through that a lot. Like
guys are like, oh I like you, like Usmann for example,
He's like, oh I love you, I want to be
with you and all this, But it's like, Okay, why
aren't you taking me on date? Why aren't you singing
me a song?
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Why are you not? Like Garrett?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Words and actions aren't matching. So I'd say it's pretty
easy to tell who's just talking game?
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Right? I agree completely?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Please do not move. There's more with Courtney and Elise
coming up next. Hey, thanks for coming back to my
conversation with Courtney and Elise from ninety day Hunt for
Love on TLC. Do you feel the chemistry immediately or
is it something that you kind of and off to
the side. I always call it a silent watcher, somebody
who just watches everything and then you start putting the
pieces together.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I'd say I'm a slow burner, like I want to
see somebody's true intentions, seeing.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I come on really hot and heavy, like a guy
will be like, Hi, how about you drink. I'm like, wait,
I'm in love with you. Like so, I think that's
why God made us best friends, because we can learn
off each other, like I need to become more of
a slow burner, and maybe Courtney needs to open up
a little like quicker. So, you know, it's so interesting.
There's so many different walks of life, and everyone has
(04:33):
came to the show with different you know, emotional baggage,
and to be all in the same area together for
three weeks, it's definitely an inventure and a ride of
a lifetime.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
You bring up a very interesting point in the way
with everybody being different because love from other parts of
the world. It's not like americanized love.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Right, And definitely, I you know, I've seen you know,
we're halfway through the season and I'm watch Osman especially,
I feel like his cultural differences it was hard for him,
especially for Courtney, to you know, he kept saying he
loved Courtney, but he wasn't asking Courtney on a date.
So I think his cultural differences maybe it did affect
(05:15):
you know, love is love everywhere in the world, though,
you know, like, but maybe we're maybe we're blaming his
cultural differences of not knowing how to treat her. But
I'll give him the benefit of the doub Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
One of the things that I'm so proud of TLC
about is is a place. It takes place in Mexico.
What a beautiful place on the planet. So many people
have their own image of what they think Mexico is.
On this show, it is the fantasy.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yes, tloom is one of my favorite cities. I've traveled
to maybe forty countries and everybody's like, what's your favorite country?
Mexico is always my top one or two because there's
so many different cities in Mexico that are gorgeous. So
it's like, don't listen to the media and all the
hate about Mexico and all that. I think it's one
of the prettiest countries of the most beautiful kind people.
Of course, amazing tacos and food and margarete us.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
One of the terms that comes up on the show
that kind of took me by shock and surprise, but
yet it's always been here is is is the term
love hungry? Do you believe in that.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Love? Yeah? I believe in it to an extent.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah, I think I've always craved love. I think growing up,
you know, it's like we're always pushed like marriage and love.
Like both of our parents have been married forty six years,
so I've always been like, I want to get married,
I want love, And then you watch all these romantic
comedies everything, So yeah, i'd say, yeah, I'm love hungry.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Maybe is it about living in the presence of everything
right now? Because so much is going on inside those
three weeks. You've got to be present, don't you.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
It's super hard to be present because you're always thinking about, well,
what did like the guy my guy talk about with
another girl or and it's super hard to stay present
because you're always on edge of what is going to happen.
Is another girl going to try and steal my man?
Is you know someone talking bad about me? Am I
not doing something for them to get their attention? You know,
(07:10):
it's really hard to stay in the present and uh
something that probably looking back would have been really good
to do.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
And then some of the workshops are going on at
the same time, so it's like, oh, I wonder what's
happening in their workshop? Is are they having fun? Oh,
who's doing what you know. It's like, then you want
on the tea and gossip too.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
You talk like that, and right away I'm going, somebody's
jealous here? Is there a lot of jealousy going on?
Speaker 3 (07:34):
I was jealous that they went to this hot tub
speed dating and I was at flirting one on one,
like in the sun, being baked and like having to
flirt in front of everybody. Then they come in like, oh,
we were at the hot tub all day having champagne,
and I was like, what, why was an I at
that one?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Well, you guys have got to come back to this
show anytime in the future. The door is always going
to be open for you.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Oh, thank you.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
You'd be brilliant today.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Okay Oka, have a great day. Thank you for your time.
