“I was being real. He’s an actor, so I didn’t know what was going through his head," she continued. “But I was being somewhat true. And afterward, it was, like, ‘People are really liking this, actually.’ ”

“Part of me thinks that the reason I’ve been single for so long is because I have this dating show, and it’s easier for me that I’m single because I’m living the character,” she explained, adding that in her private life, she’s turned to dating apps and her friends to set up dates for her.
“I go through waves of finding it really hard to meet people, and then my first thought is ‘I’m so unattractive,’” she continued. “When I’m super single, I just go into this place where I convince myself not that I’m unattractive — like, I know that I’m not — but more, like, ‘Every single person thinks I’m ugly, but they’re wrong.’ ”
While this persona is different from her confident and flirty persona when she’s hostingChicken Shop Date, she adds, “I do have good self-confidence, but it just manifests in a different way, where I just think people are out to get me.”
