Netflix's Love is Blind (Part 1): My Psychologist Response-with a little help from my husband! Ep. 82




Love & Life with Dr. Karin show

Summary: The hottest new Netflix series, Love is Blind, touches on a myriad of Love &amp; Life themes i.e. attraction, intimacy, dating, relationships, engagement, and marriage. Obviously, I had to weigh in! What does psych research have to say about this “experiment?” Is it actually possible to fall in love without laying eyes on each other? Even if a bond forms, will it survive in the real world? <br>My husband, Dan, joins me (because despite his initial skepticism, I got him hooked on the series, too) to hash out these questions and delve into the following:<br><br>· Gender differences and attraction.<br>· The role of scent in attraction—specifically how scent was absent when participants were in the pods!<br>· How much is too much? Should Carlton have told Diamond about his past? We discuss what we share in our marriage (and what we don’t!) about our past.<br><br>Every once in a while, a TV show captures worldwide attention AND provides compelling material for discussing the psychology of dating, love, and marriage. With SO much goodness to unpack, this episode will be the first in a Love &amp; Life Love is Blind series. Please join us and join in the conversation on Instagram. I’m at @dr.karin!
