Victor Rasuk is currently single. In fact, he previously mentioned in an interview he finds difficulty dating and maintaining a healthy relationship as a working actor.
Back in February 2015, the New York native told Latina,
Between the schedule and the people, and the things going on in my life, it’s hard to keep it in one place.
The actor continued,
I’m in L.A. right now but it’s only because I’m shooting. If not I’d be back and forth to New York. People always ask me if I’m homeless. I’m not homeless, I have two spots so I never really call any place home.
When he was younger, Victor found "getting the girl" anything but easy. He admitted,
I was a lot shorter and skinnier than I am now.
The actor standing at the height of 5'7" confessed,
I didn’t grow up rich so what I ate all the time was Ramen noodles, so I didn’t put on much weight.
Rasuk, to his credit, was reluctant to give up and eventually learned some skills from the older guys in the neighborhood, who always knew what to say or how to impress the girl to win her over. As an eager learner, he used to listen to these guys and "always remember the lines that they used to spit to the girls."

As for his ideal woman, the actor revealed she does not need to be an actress, but he carries a fondness for someone "artistic." In fact, he is affectionate towards someone who is worldly and likes to travel.
The Baker and the Beauty star explained his ideal girlfriend doesn't need to be Latina since he's dated all of them; White, Asian, Latin, and Black. However, he finds Latinas extra special since that's who he is and relates to them the most.
Although he doesn't have a specific taste, Rasuk claimed he would love someone who oozes confidence and makes him laugh.
