    Matt referred to himself as a “24-year-old f--kboy” at the time he met Jenn on Hinge. “He found this really cute, sweet girl named Jenn, totally out of his league,” Matt said, as Kirkland. “Somehow she gave him a chance, they hit it off and started dating. Things started to heat up, then got pretty serious and Jenn was ready to settle down with her person. But my dad just wasn’t there yet. He was still, as I said, a f--kboy.”

    At the end of the video, Matt returned to speaking in the first person and added, “If you’re not Jenn, you can just keep scrolling now. Yo, did you change your number?”
