Right after meeting Michelle mid-season, Matt decided to take her on a one-on-one date because he felt something strong for her right off the bat.

For their date, Chris Harrison planned an extreme scavenger hunt for Matt and Michelle in which they had to follow clues and embark on little adventures, from ziplining to a hotair balloon ride.

"It feels like we're taking our connection in stride and we're not missing a beat... Matt is definitely somebody that I can picture myself with," Michelle gushed.

At one point, the couple was asked to reveal how many children they'd like to have, and Michelle and Matt said "three" at the exact same time.

Matt said he was taken with Michelle's presence because she managed to put him at ease and make him feel comfortable. He felt as if the couple had known each other for a long time.

Matt said he was serious about finding a wife and believed Michelle embodies all the qualities he's looking for in a woman.

"I see all I need to see," Matt said in a confessional about Michelle.
