Age of Love: Mark Philippoussis and Amanda Salinas Reunite in Vegas

BuddyTV - USA - The start of a new relationship can always be an uncertain time.  For participants in a dating show, it is uncertain to the hundredth degree.

If you are one of the women or men in the crowd vying for the one bachelor or bachelorette, you have to deal with watching him or her dating multiple people - sometimes in the middle of the date they are on with you.

If you're the one doing the choosing, well, that's a little bit easier, but there are always the doubts about the motivations of that group of women or men.  Are they angling for your heart or just more camera time?

And if you both make it through all that and decide that you've actually maybe found love...as soon as you both agree to give the relationship a go, you're separated for sometimes months until the show's finale airs.
