One of the participants last season was Kyle Abrams.
The cast recently came back together for “Love Is Blind: After the Altar” Season 2.
I hope they show that.
Because in the first show we didn’t really get to know anybody that well.
The way that everyone was portrayed is not really how they are.
There’s not enough time to let the character or the person develop and show their personality.
I hope it depicts our actual personalities.
[We] are answering questions that everybody wants to know.
I might as well just have you watch the show, so that’s usually what I tell everybody.
It showed one-fifth of my personality.
It didn’t even show me having great interactions with Shaina.
It showed all the negative and awkward moments.
I’m like, “Do you know how many times we died laughing together?
And people are like, “They’re just fake friends.
They’re fake relationships.”
Bulls*** we talked for hours and almost might have gotten engaged.
But then you have ones that are telling people that it’s fake.
I’m like, “You don’t know anything.
Just get away from us.”
Certain ones, yeah.
Got to figure out who.
What was it like for you seeing everyone again, coming back for this reunion?
They’re awesome, for the most part.
I get along with everybody.
I don’t know how much …
I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know what they show.
I knew they wouldn’t show everything because, like I said, there’s not enough time.
But I don’t think that the way they portrayed our story is accurate at all.
It didn’t go like that at all.
I’m disappointed, actually.
We’ve moved on.
This will hopefully show some of our redemptions.
This is our redemption show.
When the series first came out, you have all these other people giving their opinions.
It’s a bit of a disservice to your personality and some of the qualities that you have.
I’m happy that I’m still a little bit mysterious to the audience.
Yeah, overall, it was great.
If you asked me a few months ago, I would say relationships.
I still want to get married.
That’s always been my goal.
I’ve been excited to get married, and I’ve been saying that a lot lately.
I’m kind of sick of dating.
Are they really going to get to know me for me?
Are they just curious to see what my life is like and then not be genuine?”
Is religion a deal-breaker for him in relationships?
Even though [Shaina] was portrayed [that way], it does not consume her life.
Okay, I get it if you go down to the Bible belt, it’s everything to them.
You have the conversation on a date about “Do you want to get married in a church?”
I will gladly get married in a church.
It’s not that big of a deal.
[But] I haven’t really found anyone who’s like that.
Other than people online, no one is like, “This is a deal-breaker.”
No one has said that to me ever.
No, that’s not a problem at all.
But I do say I like being called a devil worshiper.
Those are other people’s words.
I didn’t want to say anything until right before.
We were all hanging out.
And … it also was the way that Shake was going off the rails.
I was like, “Wow, she’s so underappreciated, and you’re an idiot.”
I wanted to make that a point.
That was my motivation, how he was crashing and burning.
I was like, “You’re not shedding any positive light on Deepti right now.
You’re just making it about [your]self.”
It was so annoying.
We both have great personalities that no one really got to see.
She’s really witty and funny.
That was the best part of our relationship we banter and have conversations.
That in itself could be a show.
I think a lot of people would watch it.
Yeah, I would.
Stream “Love Is Blind: After the Altar” Season 2 on Netflix starting September 16, 2022.
