BLISS POUREETEZADI:I don’t think I like the word “competing.”
I don’t compete for men or relationships.
I’m competitive when playing sports, but otherwise, that’s not really my thing.
Zack and Irina.Netflix
It was really an opportunity for me to practice what I preach.
I’m always giving advice to my friends, “You just need to take the high road.
you’re gonna wanna do your best and venture to stay in your lane.”
And I really tried to communicate those needs to her.
This is not a competition.
This is about what I want and exploring what I want."
I’m not a person to be involved in drama.
It wasn’t the easiest thing, but it was a really good growing experience for me, too.
What went through your mind when you learned Zack chose Irina over you?
I was surprised, honestly.
I felt like I had this knowing that this is my match, so I definitely was surprised.
I’m not going to take a stab at force anything or take a stab at convince someone."
You had already told him that choosing Irina would affect how you viewed his judgement and his character.
Did knowing that he proposed to Irina change the way you thought about him?
Obviously, what I was seeing was completely different than what he was seeing from her.
This doesn’t necessarily get shown, but I never told him in detail what she did.
He maybe felt like this was coming out of nowhere.
I think through our pod experience, I even learned that from him.
I wasn’t really surprised that she said that.
Do you think that had any influence over his decision to propose to Irina over you?
I’m not sure.
I really can’t speak to that.
That would be a good question for him.
No matter what, people don’t deserve to be treated so poorly.
That wasn’t easy for me to see him being treated that way.
