Love on the Spectrum Season 3 Episode 2: Madison meets an expert before her date with Brandon

When she was asked about getting guidance regarding dating, Madison mentioned Jennifer Cook would be helpful. Jennifer was an autism expert who visited Madison for her doubts before going out on a date.

"I was diagnosed as being autistic in 2011, and since then, I've been working with neurodiverse individuals to make their lives feel more empowered and enriched, and a lot of times, that involves finding love," confessed Jennifer.

Madison had a list that she wanted to discuss with Jennifer. They talked about comfort zones, learning zones, and more things.

Later in the episode, Love on the Spectrum star Madison got ready for her lunch date. Her mom joined her as she was getting ready. She got two dolls in her bag and went on her date with Brandon.

When he arrived, he sat close to the table as he felt unsafe from all the noise around them. They talked about their mutual love for classic cartoons while still Brandon was sitting in an uncomfortable position, crouching at the table.

Seeing his sitting position, the producers asked him if he was okay, to which Brandon replied he was a "little nervous."

"I'm getting distracted 'cause of the few noises in the background," he said.

When Madison asked, Brandon shared that he usually crouches down like that to avoid being surrounded by other people. They switched their table to the deck, away from all the noise. While enjoying their lunch, Brandon asked if he could put his earbuds on.

"It helps drown out background noise so that I don't hear anyone around me," said Brandon.

While having lunch, Brandon kept putting his earbuds in and out of his ears as he and Madison conversed. Seeing how their date went, Madison told Brandon it was nice to meet him but that they were not a "romantic match."

After Brandon left, Madison confessed:

"Hopefully, I meet a guy who's outgoing, a guy who loves traveling. The guy I met today, he wasn't into any of that stuff, and it broke my heart."
