Since Love Is Blind premiered in 2020, fans have been wondering how effective the concept of speed dating without seeing the other person actually is. The show, which aired for seven seasons and spawned several international iterations, follows singles as they date in pods over a 10-day period. The highlight, of course, is that they (…)

“I understand that falling in love and having your heart broken is a risk, I understand that. But then last night I was talking to my niece's mother and my brother and we had a long conversation just talking about this decision and I learned a few things and f–, I just found out that my ex hurt a lot more than I realized after the divorce,” Ramses, who had been married before, tried to explain. “And I'm just afraid that something might happen where I would end up hurting you.”

While Marissa said she understands that there are “a lot of people” and “feelings” involved in saying “yes,” she stressed that the couple's relationship is ultimately all about them — but Ramses wasn't convinced.

“After being married and seeing other marriages, I just don't believe that love alone is enough,” he said, adding that while they had formed an “incredible bond,” there were certain obstacles that he didn't what was certain was whether they could overcome this. “That connection is amazing, but there are certain things you can't get past, especially when it comes to living together and spending everyday life together, that's incredibly important,” he added. That’s what has the potential to wear us down over time.”

Marissa, for her part, contradicted the statement that “all they had” was love for them, saying that although they have faced problems since their engagement, they have managed to overcome most of them.

“We talked about you needing your space, and I love you enough to give you what you need,” she told him. “This marriage is a promise and a commitment, and with the commitment comes the responsibility to go through whatever we have to go through. I promise to spend life with you forever because I believe we will be great together.”

Although she tried to get him to realize that they brought out “great qualities” in each other, Ramses said that getting married would mean following his “feelings” and not enough “logic,” a mistake he made had done in the past.

“After those conversations, there may have been things that I pushed aside because they were important,” he explained. However, Marissa argued that he gave her “nothing tangible to work with.”

Ramses tried to put it more precisely and told her: “It's about your energy and my energy living and coexisting in the same space.”…Will our energy be too much for me or overwhelm me? It was great and beautiful in Cabo, but there is so much going on here every day with work and everyday stress that I didn't feel like I had a moment to myself.”

Marissa admitted that it wasn't the first time she heard that someone loved her “energy” in the “first few months” of their relationship, but added that the two's different lifestyles weren't “negative” for her, because they do need to learn to “find time to calm down, relax and watch TV on the couch.”

She then asked why Ramses couldn't “imagine” the future before telling him that “that experience shouldn't have happened because it's very clear that you have to live with someone for a long time before you ever marry them.”

“For the first time I was 100 percent myself, I was the most understanding person, how could I feel so confident and you don't, I just want someone to be confident in myself, you know?” she asked as she collapsed. “I just want someone to choose me.”

Marissa continued to sob and asked Ramses if he was “sure” to end things before telling him it was a “big mistake” to end it.

“That is not right. This is the worst heartbreak I have ever experienced,” she said, crying. She then called her mother to tell her that the wedding would not take place.

“I feel like I’m dying,” I don’t know. Two days ago he told me he was so excited about the wedding that we picked our first dance song and he got emotional imagining us getting married,” she said. “So it’s really hard for me to come to the conclusion that we’re done. I feel crazy, I feel crazy, like I just made this all up?”

Viewers last saw Marissa telling her mother, “Mom, it hurts. It hurts so much,” as Ramses sat in another room with his head in his hands and Marissa’s engagement ring fell to the floor.
