Love Is Blind Season 7 Episode 10 Recap: Hannah and Nick Split 

After a long — and extremely rocky — romance, Love Is Blind season 7 stars Hannah Jiles and Nick Dorka finally called it quits ahead of their wedding.

The twosome ended the engagement during the latest batch of season 7 episodes, which hit Netflix on Wednesday, October 16. After a troubled start in the pods due to Hannah, 27, feeling split between Nick, 29, and Leo Braudy, things continued to spiral for the pair in Mexico when Hannah found herself getting the “ick” over some of Nick’s behaviors. After traveling back to Washington D.C., they had some good moments before clashing again when Hannah began questioning Nick about his “responsibilities” in life and whether he was ready for marriage.

Episodes 9 and 10 kicked off with tension growing between the duo during a joint Bachelor and Bachelorette party for all the engaged couples. While Hannah was excited to spend the night showing her fiancé her “fun side,” she was ultimately disappointed when Nick engaged in a “40-minute” conversation with former contestant and pod connection Katie.

When Hannah accused Nick of being “intrigued” to see Katie at the party, Nick explained that he simply “wanted to have a conversation why they ranked each other No. 1” for the first three days in the pods but then never saw each other again.

Nick assured Hannah that he was “happy” with her, but Hannah wasn’t convinced. She pointed out that Katie — who she called her “best friend” on the show — had come up to her and said Nick was “hot” multiple times throughout the night, but Nick argued that had “nothing to do” with him.

“Were you guys talking about how f—-ing fabulous I am or were you f——ing talking about your past relationships?” she asked before going in on him harder. “Are you mature enough Nick? Because I’ve taught you everything you know. I’ve turned you from a boy into a f—ing man. I’ve done everything for you.”

Although they decided to end the argument and head to bed, the awkwardness continued the following day when Nick met up with Hannah and her friends, who, like Hannah, questioned him on whether he was prepared for a wife.

“I know sometimes I can seem malicious or rude but when you know me you know it comes from a good place and the truth does hurt sometimes,” Hannah said about comments she made to Nick in the past, to which her friends agreed. “The truth hurts though,” they said.

Nick, for his part, expressed that he understood Hannah’s point of view but felt she could be too hard on him. “You have questions about my maturity, social awareness, if i can take care of you, if i can take care of [the dog] Luna, if I can live in your space with you, how our routines [are] going to mesh, am I able to change my ways for this relationship,” he said. “That’s six things off the bat.”

Hannah assured him that she never questioned Nick’s “love for” her, but just if he was “ready to commit to me and be the husband I deserve.” Hannah continued that line of questioning the next day when meeting up with her mom before the planned wedding dress shopping with the rest of the women from the cast.

“Nick doesn’t match me intellectually, Nick doesn’t match my humor, he doesn’t match me creatively, he doesn’t match me financially,” she explained. “And him meeting my friends yesterday, they did not like him.”

While Hannah’s mom tried to convince her daughter that “none of that matters” if she and Nick “love each other,” Hannah wouldn’t budge. “I do love him, that’s why I’m still here, [but] I feel like I’m teaching how to love and be in a relationship and that’s not really fair to me.”

After Hannah’s mom left, Nick came home and the twosome finally had it out with each other. Hannah started the conversation by calling back a list of problems she had with Nick that she had written down after getting the “ick” in Mexico.

“It was respect, delusional, social awareness, maturity, confidence vs ego. Those five concerns that I have are still there,” she explained. “They never went away, ever, because you just kept repeating the same actions. Social awareness, I do not see. Respect, you have none. Ego vs confidence, I feel like I need to stroke your ego for you to be happy and I feel like you say you’re an extremely confident person and I make you un-confident when it’s just ego, and it’s just delusion. it’s just, lilke, you just can’t see how I feel.”

Nick said he was “sorry” Hannah felt that way, but she continued. “The Katie situation for example,” she said. “I don’t know if you can use specific examples [about what’s gone wrong] but I can. Because I remember things. I know you don’t.”

Feeling pushed too far, Nick accused Hannah of “throwing shade for no reason,” but Hannah insisted it was just “her truth.”

“But see how you’re always talking down to me?” Nick asked. “We’re not equals here. It doesn’t feel that way at all. You think I can’t take care of myself for some reason. You think I can’t take care of you, I can’t take care of anything.”

Hannah then asked what “responsibilities” Nick has in his life, and he replied, “Payments, my car, my gas, my insurance, that’s pretty much it right now. I live at home right now so I don’t have to pay rent. My responsibilities are taking care of myself, taking care of work, making sure that the people around me are secure. I have a cat. … I’m a pretty simple man.”

When Hannah asked if “simple men don’t need responsibilities,” he argued, “My responsibilities are being the best son and friend that I can. Being successful in real estate. I’m trying to take the initiative [but] you constantly bash me and say I’m turning you from a boy to a man.”

“It’s a little too much to be honest,” he added.

Hannah explained that she wrote down her issues because she wanted to be able to get all her “feelings out” to him if it was the “last conversation” they ever had. “I have been trying and trying because I love you and I want this so freaking bad it’s just, like, when do I take off the rose colored glasses and see this for what it is?”

Hannah also accused Nick of being fake, sharing that he had called her before the cameras arrived to “make a plan” so that he didn’t “look bad” during the breakup.

“I don’t know who you are, I don’t understand you,” she said, claiming in a confessional that Nick is “very good at telling people what they want to hear and I feel very manipulated and very weak … I just don’t know if he’s even real.”

Hannah concluded their conversation by stating that they were “not going to get married,” which Nick said was one of the “worst feelings of his life.”

“I thought I was good enough for you and I was wrong the whole time,” he continued. “I thought you understood me and I was wrong the whole time. I love you, you know? So it’s gonna suck. I’ll never not think about you, you’ll always be in my heart.”

The first 10 episodes of Love Is Blind season 7 are now on Netflix.
