Liebe macht blind: Schweden

As a Love Is Blind enthusiast, I've watched every version available on Netflix - and after seeing the Swedish edition (season 1 and 2), this one is by far my favorite. While other versions are entertaining, the Swedish cast felt refreshingly real. They weren't afraid to be vulnerable or show their true selves, which made it easy to connect with them as a viewer.

I'm usually not a big fan of the whole "marriage at the end" concept, but watching so many couples genuinely say yes was honestly heartwarming. It really showed they were there for love-not for the cameras.

I don't understand the negative comments I've read here. Every version has its challenges, but at least these couples didn't give up. Most of them worked through it and managed to match the emotional connection from the pods with real-life chemistry.

I felt sick after watching this show. It seems that people only care about physical attraction. If they're not attracted to their partner, they just beat around the bush to stay on the show. Moreover, some participants who joined weren't even single. The conversations of those who aren't conventionally attractive are hardly ever shown. It's no surprise that Sweden has one of the highest single populations in the world. The show also reveals that people frequently yearn for the choice they didn't make, driven by the belief that the other person they liked might be more attractive. Everyone presents an idealized version of themselves in the pods, which turns out to be quite different from reality.

As a Swede, it is interesting to see the comments about the looks on the people in the show. I think (and all I have spoken to) they are not at all cast for their looks, they look very average for Sweden, like 5/10. However, are we more looks and attraction focused than other nations, perhaps we are without me having understood it.

Sex is something that happens quick in a dating situation and perhaps that is why this part is profound early on also here in this show, without it working there getting married is not on the table.

I think the series is well constructed and exciting to see the twist and turns in each relationship.

I hate how 90% of the cast is absolutely physically gorgeous! Even like that, they are complaining all the time that they aren't attracted to their partners! What's wrong with this people? I wish I was 1% beautiful as any of them are!

I loved every "Love is Blind" show at first seasons, but now it's getting boring, but I'm still watching, because I'm curious about other people nations than mine (Brazil) getting into relationship and see how they deal with it all!

The Colombian guy is crazy, totally scared me! Gurls run away from him or any similar man! Cringe af, confuse, arrogant, weird and manipulative!

Actually.... I had hoped that both sexes were more evolved.

The male/female roles seemed less developed than their counterparts here in the US Big City(s)

But then it seems these shows rely on a different kind of participant-more fragile, vulnerable, game players...

One older game playing guy I had to wonder if he was looking for a damaged woman he could emotionally take advantage of or prove something w/ a TV apperance. This dude,, I thought, knew how to manipulate a less "worldly" woman- a woman one who was religious, more genuine, mature & had a mature focus on long term relationships and wanted a certain type of relationship & man. I think the slimy man also wanted same but in no way could he get there, esp at age 47/48. He needed long term therapy not a relationship.
