We play music videos and just dance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">While meeting for dinner in the Big Apple, the pair discussed their recent trips together \u2014 which don\u2019t always make Instagram.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI feel like we\u2019ve barely spent time in New York,\u201d Riley told her boyfriend. \u201c[My favorite trip was] Korea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Christian replied, \u201cI feel like it\u2019s really hard to find someone you don\u2019t get annoyed with after two weeks together. I like the fact that we can go places and not fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Elsewhere in the dinner, Riley seemingly helped keep Christian up to speed on any and all drama surrounding her friend group.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Before season 2 of <i>Next Gen NYC<\/i> premiered in June, Riley dropped a few hints that her romantic life may be part of future episodes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI am very private about it,\u201d she exclusively shared with <i>Us Weekly<\/i>. \u201cI really appreciate this relationship, so you may see a glimpse.

I listen to my mom. I hear her and I listen to her experiences. I\u2019m just going to see. This would be the first time for me, but we\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-wide\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">One person who is a big fan of Christian is Riley\u2019s own mom.
