"It's a real life relationship. Everyone is going to have a different opinion but for me when I'm into someone and I see a future with them I don't let anyone else have an opportunity because there's no need for it," he said.
"I'm not looking at other opportunities, even if they could or couldn't have been my partner. It's invalid. I don't know them."

He didn't disapprove of anyone else's decision to remain at the lunch with their second matches "as long as there's no flirtation"
