Love is Blind: Sverige

I didn't think this was that bad. The show is about proving if Love is Blind. It's an experiment. If all the people from this series that are married were not physically attracted to their partner when they first met, they wouldn't be with them. I don't think Love is blind. It feels like it for some of them because they are actually attracted to their partner.

At the end of the day, I was just happy to see quite a few couples getting married, staying together and being happy.

I tried watching the Japan one but it was just too slow for me. And the Brazil one was too chaotic for me. I thought this was a good pace.

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.

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.

As a Swede, I start to ask the question: do you need to be married to love each other? Or is this another American reality show that sets the standards for what love is?

If you haven't seen 'Love Is Blind,' well, you haven't missed anything except for all the drama. The concept is very interesting, but the show is really focused on contestants getting married, and it bothers me because it's very 'osvenskt.'

Something I find bothersome is letting the participants be handed over by their mother or father. The concept originates from an old tradition where women were considered minors and had a guardian. Therefore, it's a concept that is very old and un-Swedish.

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.
