So, do you cook now?
I still don't cook! I didn't find a passion for that at all.

What did you like about Meredith?
She is an impressive girl. I don't know whom she's with but she's going to make someone happy. She's a great girl and I hope to remain friends with her.

Were you close to Matthew or Ian? Who do you think is the best match for her?
I got to be close to both of them, to tell you the truth. Matt is one of the better people I've ever met. He's very sincere, very straightforward and Christian-oriented and just a real genuine, sincere guy. So, he definitely would make her happy. Ian is kind of exotic. He was born and grew up in Brazil and is a very interesting person and down to earth, pretty laid back. I think she likes that, too. I really have no idea. I can see it working with either one.

What was up with your mom and the grilling she gave Meredith. Was that fair?
It was definitely my mom, but she would never do that to a girl she just met. But she knew in her mind she had just one window ... so she wanted to find out Meredith's answers to some of those questions.

The women in the audience love you. So will it be easy to date again?
It's exciting but a little scary, too, just from the responses that I've had now. It's crazy. It's going to be overwhelming. They tried to tell me it would be like that, but I don't think anyone can prepare you for the way it is.
