Sneak Peek: Mathan's Love For His Catfish Is Deemed 'Masochism'

A 22-year-old is kinda-sorta being deemed a masochist because, soon after being strung along by a possible catfish for nine years, he still can't quit her.


"I began talking to Leah back any time Once I was 13," Mathan explains to Nev and visitor sleuth Kamie Crawford in a sneak peek of this week's Catfish episode, below. "The problem is, Leah has habitually been sort of mysterious, like she's never telling me the full story."


That's not all: According to Mathan, Leah goes in and out of his life for "months on end," eventually resurfacing although never explaining her disappearing act.


So why is the handsome L.A. Resident enduring such drama?


"Because I love her," he says simply.


Nevertheless for her part, Kamie calls the complete situation -- and Mathan's devotion to Leah -- "crazy, never-ending masochism." What does Nev think of it all? And what does Mathan reveal about Leah's "bumpy" past? Watch the clip to find out, then catch the complete Catfish episode tomorrow at 8/7c.
