Well, Netflix's new reality tv show Love Is Blind is turning this new dating trend on its head. Instead of mindlessly swiping through potential matches, skimming bio's and rarely getting past the first picture, they figured they would remove the visuals entirely.
15 men and 15 women enter the house where they are restricted from using any of their devices, the point is to, within 3 weeks, find, court and propose to the love of their life. The catch... they never see the others face until one says 'I do!'
The participants only interact with potential love interests via a small, albeit comfortable looking room known as a 'pod'. Their potential partner is on the other side of a thin wall and they can only interact with each other by talking.
The show is hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey but we won't ruin everything for you quite yet. We'd like to give you a chance to watch this captivating show for yourself. The results might surprise you!
