Relationships are hard, and going on Perfect Match is like, relationships on steroids.

I do, but I want to have sex on the couch first.

So, when Joey proposed to me, I, like, blacked out.

Things with Joey, they were good. And then it was like, oh, oh, oh!, And we just couldn't get it back.

I feel like I knew it was over, when we were talking about, being a power couple.

Me and Joey can never rekindle, and never get back together, but it's me and fucking Joey.

If I'm going to be really honest, with my feelings, the person I'm most interested in that, I feel like I can trust, is you.

There was a lot of doubt around mine, and Dom's connection, and I feel like a lot of people, threw different challenges, and different hurdles at us, and we overcame them all.

The last thing I wanted, was for it to be, an ugly ending to something, so beautiful.

Meeting Harry was so weirdly unexpected.

I think who I was on the show, is who I am in real life.

I'm a romantic. I'm a lover boy. Like, I love falling in love.

I really don't know what happened. It was definitely my fault that, the relationship didn’t work.

I had a lot of stress, going on with the show–, My show still airing.

I was in a bubble in Perfect Match. It was beautiful.

My relationship status is–, Wouldn't you like to know?

Life after has been amazing. Right now, I am very much single, like a Pringle, ready to mingle.

Transcripts

Woo!

Been a while since

I’ve had one of them in my face.

Hey, guys.

You want the tea?

Oh, I knew this–

I knew it–

Let’s do it.

Now you get me going.

That was the craziest time

of my entire life.

Relationships are hard

and going on Perfect Match is like

relationships on steroids.

Like, nothing feels like

it is when it's with you

and you want to go to bed

and be my perfect match?

I do

but I want to have sex on the couch first.

So, when Joey proposed to me

I, like, blacked out.

Like, I want to be able

to tell you what I was thinking

but it was literally like my soul left my body.

Things with Joey, they were good.

It was at like here

and then it was like here

and then it was like, here again!

And then it was like, oh, oh, oh!

And we just couldn't get it back.

It sucks

because I want to be here saying like

Oh, my god!

Yeah. Like, we're

we’re getting married tomorrow!

Or we eloped in Vegas!

Sometimes we've had to laugh about it.

I'm like

You think some people are going

to be surprised that we didn't make it?

Like, look at us!

Sometimes we're so up, we're so down.

But we love so hard.

I feel like I knew it was over

when we were talking about

being a power couple.

Joey said we were like

the next Batman and Robin.

And I was like, who's Batman?

Does this boy really think

I'm like a sidekick?

Like, what's going on?

If someone's going to blame someone,

you can blame me.

I just think, without going into details,

things just weren't the way

that they were supposed to be.

Me and Joey can never rekindle

and never get back together,

but it's me and fucking Joey.

How am I supposed to sit here

and look you in the face and say

I don't see myself ever getting back

with the man

I almost spent the rest of my life with.

Like...

If I'm going to be really honest

with my feelings

the person I'm most interested in that

I feel like I can trust, is you.

I really kind of want to do

what I want to do

and that would be to choose you.

Okay, I'm really glad.

Me too.

There was a lot of doubt around mine

and Dom's connection

and I feel like a lot of people

threw different challenges

and different,

you know, hurdles at us

and we overcame them all.

And because everyone was testing us so hard,

I thought people

didn’t see that we had a connection.

It felt good to win.

I mean, you know

having everybody root for you

I was definitely shocked.

After the show, we ended

before we even got the chance to

redeem our prize.

We were at different

levels of the relationship

and he's such an amazing person.

The last thing I wanted

was for it to be

an ugly ending to something

so beautiful.

We were still talking.

We were together

and she had to go do a certain podcast.

The podcast came out

and the title of the podcast was

“Georgia and Harry Jowsey Fall in Love”

Yeah, I would say I was blindsided.

Meeting Harry was so weirdly unexpected.

Obviously, he's Australian.

I'm Australian.

I'm from Queensland.

He's from Queensland.

We've both been on the same

Netflix tv show.

There's so many synchronicities

and similarities between us

that is the perfect recipe

for me to find someone

when there's no pressure.

I think who I was on the show

is who I am in real life.

I'm loyal to a fault.

I think I learned

I can endure a lot

when it comes to a relationship.

I think a lot of things got thrown my way

throughout the course of the show.

I'm a romantic. I'm a lover boy.

Like, I love falling in love.

Hey, Dom!

I think you are genuinely

one of the most amazing people

that I've ever met.

Thank you so much

for making my experience so enjoyable.

I wish you all the best.

I'm really sorry, but–

Oh!

No, will you be my match?

Of course, always.

As soon as I met Shayne, on that first date

I was like

He's the one!

Bagged it! Like, I am done!

I am winning this show!

I really don't know what happened.

It was definitely my fault that

the relationship didn’t work.

I take full responsibility.

I had a lot of stress

going on with the show–

My show still airing.

It was mad chaos

when I was back home, it was too–

I was under so much stress

and you know

being so far away from each other

after being so close

for like two or three weeks straight

it was just very difficult.

I kind of come to my senses

a tiny little bit

when filming ended.

I was in a bubble in Perfect Match.

It was beautiful.

We were in a villa, and Shayne was there

and I was just so like, hopeful.

And then as soon as filming stopped

it was like something inside

of me was just like

“Is this really going to work?”

And the alarm bells started ringing

a tiny bit louder.

[Chloe imitates alarm]

Chloe and I have decided that

it is probably best that we

you know, just

give each other our space.

We both have respect for each other.

We both care about each other.

But there's just no need right now

to have that kind of friendship

communication at this point.

It's like me and Shayne were both

both queueing up

to go on a roller coaster.

And then we got on the roller coaster

I threw up, he threw up

and then we got off it

and then was like,

I don't like that roller coaster.

That’s basically mine and Shayne’s relationship.

My relationship status is–

Wouldn't you like to know?

I mean, I always keep things

private and sweet,

but I mean, you’ll just have to see.

Life after has been amazing.

Right now, I am very much single,

like a Pringle, ready to mingle.

My perfect match

is someone who can love me

every single day

for the faults and the strengths

and have fun at the absurdity of life.

Because let's be honest

life is fucking absurd.

I wouldn’t be single

I don't think, if I knew

what my perfect match would be.

I think my perfect match

would be someone who thinks

we're both Batman.
