33-year-old Rachel grew up in Houston. As per her bio, she had a relatively happy childhood, save for her parent's divorce, which had impacted her. So when it came to her own dating life, she was rather insecure.

However, her last relationship was a game-changer for her and gave her a new outlook on love and relationships. Although it ended, it did restore Rachel's hopes in finding the right man with whom she can share a happy, healthy, loving marriage. 

What is Rachel looking for in her future husband?
