“I’m going back to all the past where she, like, said I love you and it’s weird but I still kind of feel like maybe, she’s real or something,” he said in a confessional, however, hinting that he’s holding out that he wasn’t catfished. “I still feel that connection. I still have a glimmer of hope that maybe it was just someone else who had her phone or something, maybe she was hacked, I don’t know.”
“I still have a little bit in me that says this might all just be a misunderstanding,” Tyray continued in the clip, first shared by Entertainment Tonight. “I want to get to the bottom of everything. I’m just gonna not message her no more today,” he carried on saying. “And then tomorrow I’m gonna wake up and be like, was that a dream? It’s actually a nightmare. So that’s what I’m afraid of the most, like, how I’m gonna feel tomorrow.”
