If you thought falling in love was complicated, wait until you see what happens when you have to do it without even seeing the other person! Love Is Blind is back for Season 11, and this time, the dating experiment has landed in Boston. The first five episodes are now streaming on Netflix, and the new season has already delivered awkward confessions, love triangles, emotional moments and a first meeting that did not exactly go according to plan.
For those who are new to the show, Love Is Blind brings together a group of single men and women who date each other without ever seeing one another. They talk through separate pods, build emotional connections and, if they find the person they want to spend their lives with, get engaged before meeting face to face. After that, they have to figure out whether their connection works in the real world before deciding if they want to get married.
Hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, Season 11 features 30 singles from the Boston area. And while six couples have made it to the engagement stage in the first five episodes, the road to happily ever after is already looking a little complicated. Here are the biggest highlights from the opening batch.
