Married At First Sight Newlywed Jamie Still Isn't Into Her Husband
And apparently she's afraid he's going to forget, because she keeps reminding him. (He knows.)
- I'm still, like, a little hesitant about tonight, and sleeping together. Don't touch me!
- You almost said no.
I did?
Yeah.
You think so?
No.
I don't-- I don't remember that well. It was such a big blur. [covering face] Oh my god. - There was no way I felt like sex the wedding night. How could I possibly be, like, intimate? Instead, we just...talked.
- I'm very excited for the wedding night -- not because I expect to get any on the wedding night; you know, it's obviously up to her, but I'm going to at least try to touch her shoulder or something.
- That couch was really comfortable, I was thinking maybe you could sleep on it.
Yeah, if you like that, that's fine.
Oh -- I thought, for you, you really liked it.
Can I sleep in the bed?
You can sleep on that side, and I'll sleep on this side. And you can face that way and I'll face that way. - You know, I just laid out the rules, and it wasn't a shocker for him at that time. You know, like, he figured it out quickly that there was going to be no hanky-panky involved. We didn't even kiss.
- This ring means I get to make all the calls.
- You're not really following the rules. You're inching your way closer to me.
- Jamie didn't remember my name from the wedding.
- This is my side; this is your side.
- Yesterday, it was, like, 99% not working.
'Cause you, like, cried the whole entire wedding yesterday. You have cute tears, though.
And you were very nice.
I think I handled it well.
Yeah, well, except when you started touching me.
Yeah.
I hated that. - Oh my god! It's a condom! What are you, expecting to get lucky, huh?
That's my friends for you.
Not happening. - We might be the first married couple to go weeks without having sex. And he's, like, totally okay with it, and he seems to be, like, happy. I don't know. Like, he was like, 'Oh, I almost prefer it that way.' Really?! Like, how did they find someone that would be, like, quirky and okay with my quirks?
- The last twenty-four hours have been the worst roller coaster I've ever been on. I guess I had a picture in my mind of, like, how this whole experience would be for me; there was going to be chemistry and romance and none of that happened, and I'm like, 'This is not going to work out for me.' You know, he's not, like, a model. It was so weird and wrong and awkward. And it's really scary. It's really, really scary. He's, like, a super-nice guy, but the instant attraction is not there.
- Why are you excited?
Because I got a seat next to my wife.
Oh my gosh. Can we not say that 'w' word? - I definitely feel very awkward around Doug, so when I see the honeymoon suite, and the bed and beautiful views and all this, I'm not, like, 'Oh, I can't wait to sleep in bed with Doug!' I'm like, 'If I had the option, I'd probably sleep in a different bed than him.'
- [finding Doug's shorts in her suitcase] We're not that level yet, Doug.
- Right now I'm working on just being a likable guy so she wants to have fun and hang out with me.
- [Doug starts to change into his swimsuit] Not in front of me.
- I could barely even look at him. I feel, just, like, it just doesn't feel right.
- You're trying to hold my hand. Stop trying to hold my hand!
- I just felt so weird. I never would let him touch me.
- I didn't want to always focus on each other. I wanted to, like, stay busy, so I hopefully wouldn't feel so awkward, you know?
- If you could plan a really romantic date, what would you do?
Breakfast in bed.
That's it? - [when Doug gets stung by a jellyfish] I'm not comfortable with you touching me, but I'll pee on your foot.
- Doug and I agreed that we're not going to call our honeymoon a honeymoon, because that's just really weird and it freaks me out. So we're just going to call it a vacation where two people get to know each other, and we're going to be friends!
- Now that she's starting to warm up a little bit and stand next to me without tensing up, I'm hoping to start to chip away at that connection.
- You go over there.
- Every single day we're getting closer and closer, which is kind of cool, because she's starting to get comfortable with me, which is amazing from where she was Day 1 to where she is now, like, Day 5.
- It feels more natural with him touching me. I'm just used to it.
- This is the closest I've let you be to me. Ever. And I'm not, like, freaking out.
- I gotta shower for our romantic dinner.
Can we not call it a romantic dinner?
Okay. - I don't expect to have sex with Jamie at all, but I'm looking forward to a kiss. Honestly.
- I finally got a kiss at the last dinner, which was-- It was phenomenal.
- I can't believe I kissed him. He doesn't know I like him. I'm going to keep it a secret.
