Natalie is fed up with Gino\u2019s antics after her explosive confrontation at the birthday party with Jasmine, who Matt admittedly may be falling for.\n<\/p>\n
On the Aug. 24 episode of 90 Day Fianc\u00e9: Happily Ever After?, both Gino and Jasmine dealt with the emotional aftermath of the big blow up at Gino\u2019s cousin\u2019s birthday party, which saw Natalie storm off early after things got physical between her and Jasmine.\n<\/p>\n
The next day, Gino traveled to Natalie\u2019s hotel in hopes of patching things up. During his drive, Gino blamed Jasmine for the sticky situation, calling her a \u201clow life\u201d for her actions at the birthday party.\n<\/p>\n
Despite the drama, Gino wanted to show Natalie that he was the same guy he was in Las Vegas, where they met for the first time a few weeks prior. \u201cI want to get my bond back with Natalie,\u201d he explained in a confessional, \u201cand I don’t want her to leave.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
When he arrived, however, Natalie was packing her belongings in her luggage. Gino asked her how she was doing after the blow up and offered her a hot coffee, though she said she was still full of \u201ca lot of adrenaline.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter last night I’m feeling exhausted, disappointed, angry, very angry,\u201d Natalie explained in a confessional. \u201cThere’s a lot of things that Gino decided to leave out. I also feel very disrespected by Jasmine.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
But Natalie still wanted to hear Gino\u2019s side of the story, so she agreed to see him once more. <\/p>\n
First, she reminded Gino that she never wanted to get in the middle of his marriage with Jasmine.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I would have known that there’s any possibility \u2026 that there’s a reconciliation, or that she didn’t have the closure, then I wouldn’t have come,\u201d Natalie explained.\n<\/p>\n
Gino argued that he told Jasmine that they were likely going to get a divorce, adding, \u201cI felt like what I told her was pretty good closure.\u201d But Natalie insisted that there wasn’t.\n<\/p>\n
“A week before I came, you had dinner or whatever drinks with her and she had the hope that maybe there was going to be \u2014 even Matt said that \u2014 that there was a possibly a reconciliation,” Natalie told Gino, who then resorted to insulting Matt, calling him a \u201clow life\u201d as well and mocking him for his height.\n<\/p>\n

But Natalie said \u201cthat\u2019s besides the point,” adding, \u201cI was put into the line of fire, in the middle of something that I wasn\u2019t given all the information about. I didn\u2019t know all this stuff. That wasn\u2019t really fair to me.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Gino wanted to explain himself, but Natalie insisted that he did not have to do so. Still, she added, \u201cI wish I would have had all the information, and you\u2019re not ready. \u2026 I just want out.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Natalie wished Gino the best, but told him \u201cI wish you had the balls to f—— tell me the truth.\u201d She then finished packing up her stuff as Gino sat there flabbergasted. <\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like I was used in their silly little toxic drama, which I don’t have time for,\u201d Natalie said in a confessional. \u201cI\u2019m not the one. I’m not that woman that wants to be a part of that.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Back at the hotel, Natalie quickly took herself and her luggage through the lobby as she headed for the exit, while Gino chased after her and begged, \u201cDon\u2019t leave!\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Still, Gino blamed everyone but himself for his sticky situation. <\/p>\n
In a confessional, he suggested Jasmine, his cousin Dana, and Dana\u2019s wife Michelle \u201cruined the whole thing.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like our relationship just fell off the cliff,\u201d Gino explained. \u201cWe had a really good close bond and connection. \u2026 I keep thinking back, like, what if things would have been different at the birthday party and, you know, say, Jasmine didn’t show up? What if Michelle would have treated Natalie with more respect? Natalie and I could still be together today, and it breaks my heart.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Jasmine was also still upset with what happened at the birthday party. <\/p>\n
She vented her frustrations to Matt while they worked out at their local gym, telling him she was still \u201cin shock and disbelief about what happened.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
In a confessional, Jasmine admitted that she was \u201cextremely embarrassed\u201d by her actions from the night prior, but defended her actions, suggesting that she was furious with her estranged husband.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cHe lied to our faces,\u201d Jasmine said, noting that Gino hinted at reconciliation with her while telling Natalie that his marriage was over. \u201cHe’s just a player and I’m so done.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

The encounter at the birthday party, Jasmine said, helped her realize that she was blinded by her love for Gino. This was music to Matt\u2019s ears, who was \u201cfeeling a lot better\u201d knowing Jasmine is one step closer to being done with Gino.\n<\/p>\n
But even though Jasmine had \u201ccome to terms that things are officially done\u201d between her and Gino, she was still \u201cscared\u201d of what comes next. She suggested she may return to Panama now that her marriage to Gino is over.\n<\/p>\n
However, Matt suggested that was \u201cnot the answer\u201d to her problems, and offered to help her settle into life in the United States without Gino.\n<\/p>\n
Matt later expressed his true motivation in a confessional. <\/p>\n
\u201cI don’t want to see Jasmine go back to Panama. I want to see or hear with me,\u201d Matt admitted. \u201cI’ve been feeling if I want to say love or something for the last couple of months. And when I\u2019m trying to express my feelings with women, it\u2019s painful. It kind of gives me heartburn.”\n<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cI don’t want it to end up destroying our friendship, but I feel like I don’t want to waste my time thinking that there might be a possibility me and her could be together if there isn’t going to be anything.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Finally, Matt broached the topic with Jasmine. \u201cI don\u2019t want to be in the friend zone,\u201d he explained, later adding, \u201cI would like it if you would consider if you’re going to move on from Gino and maybe give me a chance.\u201d\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cYou\u2019re my best friend. I don\u2019t want to be the first one to pull the trigger on the word, but I want to say that I love you.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Jasmine did not seem entirely surprised by Matt\u2019s confession. <\/p>\n
\u201cI knew it,\u201d she said in a confessional. \u201cI could tell by the way he talks to me, treats me, the things he does for me. Like, you only do this kind of stuff for someone that you love. \u2026 It was never my plan, it was just the way it happened.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Though she confirmed to Matt that he was \u201ceverything I look for in a man,\u201d Jasmine was still hesitant.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I had met you under other circumstances, I will be at this point absolutely madly in love, obsessed with you,\u201d she began but later added, \u201cI want to take things one step at a time because I don’t want to hurt anyone.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Still, Matt vowed to be patient and promised he will not \u201cdisappear\u201d on Jasmine. In a confessional, he acknowledged that Jasmine simply is \u201cnot ready for a relationship because she has a lot on her plate.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\u201cJasmine is completely worth my time and my effort,\u201d he explained. \u201cShe is a quality woman. I\u2019ve got to be patient. What other choice do I have really?\u201d\n<\/p>\n
