After Mason appreciated his conversations with Meg, telling her that he couldn't talk to anyone on Love is Blind as he talked to her, she said she felt like they were similar in all the right ways and were also opposite in all the right ways. She continued:
"I'm more outgoing. You're more mellow and kind of laid back. But then I feel like we can really go there together in the depths of life."
Meg further stated that love was important to her, and telling people one loves them was equally important. She also said that it was difficult for her to tell people she loved them until she was sure of them. Mason said:
"Love to me is having a big container of candy ice cream. Just like cookie dough or Reese's or something and letting your partner have the best bite."
Meg then acknowledged their connection and asked Mason to tell her if he ever had a stronger connection with someone els rather than disappearing one day. Mason reassured her about it and acknowledged how "crazy" their connection was.
