Taylor’s place was definitely in DC. And someone else, I forget who, lives in Baltimore. This isn’t at all weird for the show. They always cast people from the area around the title city. But something like “Love Is Blind: In and Around Dallas” doesn’t sound nearly as nice.

The esthetician is also from Baltimore. And I think Leo’s a DC boy.

Not even. Alexandria.

Agree! She’s so pretty.

And Garrett isn't good enough for her. She needs a partner who can match her wit, not someone who couldn't come up with a movie better than Shrek.

DP, but to be fair, my DHs fave movie is Shrek 2 so he found it hilarious. Maybe he just thought of his favorite movie and not one that matched with her

I only have finished the first episode but he gave off very racist vibes when he was so completely thrown that she was not white. And claimed she was calculating by not sharing it. Did he explicitly tell her he was white or did he just assume that was the default. Yuck.

YES, this. He said that Taylor not revealing that she was not white made him think she was hiding things from him in order to craft a fake perfect image. So in other words, to him, being non-white is an imperfection, something he felt made her less-than, and he wondered what other “flaws” she was hiding. He’s somewhat redeemed himself in later episodes but to me that visceral reaction in that moment of shock reveals some foundational stuff that would be very hard for me to get over.

I can absolutely understand a PoC having a hard time getting over that, as you said. However, as a white person who was raised in a mostly white bubble and had fewer than half a dozen PoC over to our house in my 20 years of living there, I would say it's okay for white people to grow as humans and become more open-minded. I would also ask you to realize it's a process rather than the flip of a switch. When I was friends with two black boys in HS, my mother often told them I was not home or in the shower when they called for me. I was discouraged from dating/marrying outside our race/religion with the reasoning given that "life is already hard enough." It took me years of being on my own, making friends, getting close enough to them to have honest discussions about race, for me to learn and grow. It was a process.

Do you want a medal?

Tyler and his kids timeline (allegedly)

After binging all the information about Tyler and his 3 kids decided to lay out all the information we have so far

Those involved:
1. Tyler
2. TB - Tyler’s baby mama
3. TBW - Tyler’s baby mamas ex-wife
4. TF - Tyler’s ex fiancé

Tyler, after 5 years of dating proposes to TF

Tyler, TB, TBW, and TF are all friends at this point

TB and TBW are married and want to have kids

Tyler is used as the sperm donor (at this point we don’t know how the baby was conceived) all 3 are sworn to secrecy, that no one should know who the sperm donor is. TF is not aware

TB and TBW have a baby shower, Tyler and TF are in attendance. Somehow at the baby shower TF comes to know that Tyler is the father and she has been lied to this whole time

Tyler and TF break up

In the agreement between the 3, it was agreed that Tyler would have no fatherly role

Baby is born TB and TBW are both listed on the birth certificate.

TBW finds out that Tyler has been actively involved with the kid without her knowledge

TBW and TB separate ( this may be before her finding out about the kid and Tyler’s relationship but I am unsure)

Tyler continues to be active father against TBW wishes

TB takes TBW to court to have her parental rights terminated. Tyler comes out and says he has been an active father the whole time.

TBW becomes stressed and overwhelmed with the court process and decides to terminate her parental rights.

Tyler and TB move in together

During this living together the twins are conceived before kid #1 is 1 years old (according to TBs mother)

Tyler is a consistent presence in the kids life until Tyler goes to be on the show Oct 2023 (allegedly to make his kids lives better according to comment from TB)

Now all we know is that he disappeared from the kids life owes 30k in child support (according to TBs mother) allegedly.

Note all information coming from: storytimewithrikkii on TikTok, posts by TB on IG and TBs mom.

Wow! Awful! Thank you for the research!

Mi didn’t do the research just posting it!

The apartment is The Rixey in Ballston, which is part Marymount University dorms and part hotel.

The restaurants are all over: Vera, Tupelo Honey, you can find articles with this info now in WaPo and Washingtonian.

Hannah took her parents to Tupelo honey

No it's in Ballston near 66.

Is that surprising? You can tell she's trashy. She called Marissa a B.

Yeah, she could not have been more off-putting. I don't think I could marry someone with a mother like that. Just awful.

I like Taylor, Ramses and Ashley. Everyone else is awful.

Pretty much. Garrett is kind neutral/meh.

Ramses strikes me as the type that was be annoyingly woke and I say that as a pretty woke WOC.

I'm not okay with him. His judgment about her military service was so black and white and ridiculous. People like him think we shouldn't have a standing arm, shouldn't intervene in humanitarian situations etc? It's complicated but I really disliked his comments there. She should be proud of her service, not ashamed of. And his birth control comments, nope.

The sentiment was ok but good lord is she trashy and foul-mouthed. Like someone from a gang wandered into a restaurant and sat down with them.

But dear god, he won't wear a condom because it "doesn't feel good?" What a misogynistic manbaby. He's faux woke. And a complete slimeball. He's all suave for TV, but I guarantee he has a whole bunch of other hateful thoughts about women.

I liked Bohden. She chose wrong.

Agree.
