In this episode I analyse Love is Blind UK Episodes 1-6 , with no spoilers past episode 6. I explore the key themes discussed include intuition, self-confidence, manipulation, and the impact of racial and class dynamics. Specifically I look at:


  • First Impressions of the 6 couples
  • Discussing compatibility and lack thereof
  • Sam and Nicole: Intuition, Self-Confidence, and People-Pleasing
  • Olly and Demi: avoidance and emotional unavailability
  • Tom and Maria: lifestyle differences, traditional vs. Modern
  • Catherine and Freddie: beauty standards and micro aggressions
  • Sam's Manipulative Behavior, and contrasting Nicole and Jasmine’s responses
  • Cultural Comfort and Dating Outside of Race
  • Predictions and Reflections
