Catfish Romeo: Was Joshua Really In Love With Breana?

A handsome young catfish professed true love for his online girlfriend if they finally met on tonight’s episode, nevertheless were his feelings real or was he -- as Max so eloquently put it -- full of sh*t?


The Internet Romeo, a guy named Joshua who lived in California, had swept 26-year-old Breana off her feet an impressive 11 years prior as soon as the two met on Myspace. As Breana told Nev and Max, Josh mentioned he wanted to marry her and have kids -- heck, he even called her “wifey.” Yet alas, they’d never met in person -- something Bre determined was finally necessary.


“I love this man so much, I’m just hoping for the ideal, and I’m prepared for the worst,” the Minnesota resident mentioned.


“What is ‘the worst’?” Max asked.


Bre’s reply: “That he’s with somebody and has a secret life.”


Also bad she was right on the mark. Max and Nev swiftly discovered that Breana wasn’t Josh’s only “wifey” -- he’d been talking to a woman named Kanene for three years and bestowed the title on her too; ditto for Ashley, who’d been with Josh in the flesh just two days before.


Breana, natch, was devastated by the news and agreed to confront Josh in person. Nevertheless as soon as the two came face to face in Vegas, Josh downplayed his dalliances and recommended a reason for his behavior.


“I’ve lost everything in the last year,” he mentioned, explaining that he was soon returning to LA to stay in a homeless shelter. “It put me in a state of depression, and I began looking for people who made me feel good. I’d go out looking for companions, ladies, anybody.”


Yet were his feelings for Bre real? According to Josh, yes.


“I can’t lie about how I feel about somebody,” he instructed her. “I love you; I want to be with you. I’ve routinely seen my plan with you in it.”


Bre’s reaction? Mixed emotions. “You mention you love me, and I feel it,” she mentioned. “But then you’re telling [the other women] that too.”


Max’s reaction? Negative emotions. “I don’t think he’s that into her,” he told Nev. “I think he’s full of sh*t.”


Either way, it didn’t really matter: Right after thinking it over for a day, Breana cut her online beau loose.


“I don’t think we should date,” she told Josh gently. “You have to calculate what you want in life and what you need do to carry out your goals.”


She then recommended her friendship. “I’m just a telephone call away -- I’m routinely here for you,” she mentioned, before adding, “And stop being a little bit womanizer.”


Nevertheless what do you know? Is Josh just a womanizer, and was his declaration of love for Bre a bunch of BS like Max mentioned? Or did he really have feelings for her, and did he truly want Breana in his life? Tell us your thoughts, then catch another Catfish on Wednesday at 9/8c.
