My Husband and I Are the Original “Love Is Blind” Couple Going Strong After 20+ Years
Even if you’ve never watched Netflix’s “Love Is Blind” reality show, at some point, you’ve probably wondered the age-old question: Is love blind? In a world that emphasizes physical appearance, it can seem downright mind-boggling when people fall in love (and get engaged) without ever seeing each other.
Well, that’s exactly what my husband and I did more than 20 years ago. Long before the show was a show — and long before dating apps existed — my husband and I lived out our own “Love Is Blind” experience.
But unlike the show, we didn’t participate in a carefully orchestrated plan to find our forever person, and we weren’t forced to make a decision in just 10 days. We got to know each other and fall in love over the course of a year and a half before ever exchanging a photo or meeting.
