104. Love is Blind UK Ep1-6: Intuition, Manipulation, and Beauty Standards

I Said What I Said

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
