Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind‘ offers contestants the opportunity to look beyond surface-level appearances and form deeper, soul-based connections. In its seventh season, among the many hopeful participants, Hannah Jiles and Nick Dorka quickly gravitated toward each other. They were open and honest in their relationship, and even when they encountered challenges, their strong communication helped them reconnect. Their commitment to making the relationship work impressed fans, who are now rooting for the couple to go the distance.
Hannah and Nick Gave Their Relationship All They Had
When Nick Dorka introduced himself in the seventh season, he openly admitted that he had never experienced romantic love. In his first conversation with Hannah Jiles, he felt the spark of a potential connection and committed fully. On the other hand, Hannah was keeping her options open and felt hopeful about Nick and another person. However, she had doubts about Nick and even shared them with the other women, expressing concerns that while he was charming, he didn’t seem genuine. She told Nick she couldn’t see the relationship progressing, but she realized she may have made the wrong decision shortly after. She arranged a date with him and admitted that her feelings for him were stronger than her fears.
Hannah opened up to Nick about her body image struggles and shared how a few of his casual comments had made her feel insecure. From that moment, the couple prioritized honesty and transparency in their relationship. When Nick finally confessed his love, Hannah reciprocated. Until then, she wasn’t entirely sure, but Nick’s openness and confidence in his feelings gave her the assurance she needed. When they met in person for the first time, Hannah admitted that she had imagined Nick’s appearance differently and felt that he had presented himself in a way that didn’t fully match his actual look. Despite this, she accepted his proposal, and as they spent more time together in Mexico, she became comfortable being around him, happy that the banter and love they’d shared in the pods had returned.
There were a few moments between Nick and Hannah that raised doubts about the longevity of their relationship. One incident occurred when they were at the beach, and Nick laughed along with a woman who called his fiancée jealous, which Hannah found disrespectful. In another instance, Nick discovered a list Hannah had made about him, which he felt was a critique of his character. Even when they started living together in Washington, Hannah felt her partner was not as mature as her. Their disparity in skills in managing household chores and finances stood out to Hannah but the couple always engaged in open conversation. When her friends met him and told her they were not fully convinced, she doubted her choice and ultimately ended their relationship. In the reunion, Hannah shared how she had found a not from Nick in which he had written down some of his goals and one of them was to get popular through his appearance on the season. She explained how such behavior always made her insecure and a lot of other contestants attested that he had made some unkind remarks about her looks behind her back, too.
Hannah and Nick Have Not Reconnected After Their Break-Up
Even though fans were hopeful that the two of them would be able to make the relationship work, it was too difficult for them. Hannah has said that she did feel she was harsh to Nick a few times and even apologized for it. She explained that she has always been a direct person and is working on herself. However, when Nick spoke up and said that she should not be trolled online, she called him out for liking the “hate comments” that were being written for her. She has said that Nick was a very calculated person and his motives for being on the season were not as genuine as he was making them out to be. Given how things are between them, it does not seem like they are even on friendly terms even though they are connected on social media.
