Joey & Justin Reveal If They Are Attracted to the Same Type of Women and Dish on Their Double Date
Double the fun!
Bachelor Nation fans first met twins Joey and Justin Young on Season 19 of “The Bachelorette,” and they are back to look for love on Season 8 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Now, the twins are stopping by the “Click Bait with Bachelor Nation” podcast, where they discussed their “Paradise” experience so far.
Joey and Justin first talked about their double date with Shanae and Florence, and Justin shared what attracted him to Florence.
He said, “In our initial conversation, we connected about her being from Europe. A lot of my friends are from Europe and my family is also from Europe. She’s from Amsterdam, that’s her hometown, she just lives in Australia. She is originally from Europe, though. We connected on that because my best friend is from Turkey.”

Justin went on, saying, “Our double date went extremely well. I think we connected really well. It was really effortless, I think. There was never an awkward moment; we were in constant conversation. We would make little jabs at each other because she has this sarcastic personality that I love. That’s how I am too. I think we really connected on that level. She was different than a lot of the women I spoke to on ‘Paradise’ and that was what drew me to her.”
And Joey also chimed in about their date and his connection with Shanae.
He said, “I feel like going into the double date, I think we expected a more romantic date, not like this crazy party vibe. I ended up liking how it went, though, and, well, all went with it. With Shanae, when I first spoke to her after speaking to a lot of the other women there, we just clicked instantly. It was a very easy conversation.”
Joey continued on, explaining, “We talked about everything and our lives, and I didn’t expect to open up so quickly with someone right away like we did. That’s something I look for in a woman when I want to date them. If I can easily communicate, it’s easy to get head over heels for them. The date went extremely well. We got to talk a lot throughout the date. Something that I was really grateful for on that date is that it wasn’t boring for any of us at all.”

And while age was a concern for the two women, Justin said, “They had low expectations for us as 24-year-olds, but I don’t think they were expecting it to go as well as it went. I think they thought it was just going to be a fun party time, but it was also serious. I think we exceeded their expectations.”
“Click Bait” co-host Joe Amabile asked the twins if they would ever consider doing a joint “Bachelor” season and if they would go for the same type of women.
The guys said they would obviously be down if they got the call and they were both single, but they shared that they actually have very different types when it comes to dating women.
Justin said, “We don’t always go for the same type. Maybe looks-wise a little bit, but personality-wise, almost opposites, I feel like.”
Joey said, “For me, I like a woman that’s a little more reserved and closed off when I first meet her, then she eventually starts to open up and show her bigger personality. So maybe even a little unapproachable at first, so I like to approach and see if I could break down those walls.”
And Justin chimed in, saying, “For me, I like someone who is a little more out there and friends with everybody. I like girls who are willing to make friends with literally a brick wall. That’s just me. I also think that’s how me and Joey’s personalities are different too. I am the one who speaks first typically, and I’m the one who’s out there. He’s more reserved and logical and I’m more out there. That also translates into our types of women too.”
