Love is Blind: Sweden contestants Karolina, Jakob and Emmelie's love triangle explained

In Love is Blind: Sweden season 2 episode 1, Jakob found himself attracted to Emmelie during one of their dates. They talked about a lot of things and Jakob just mentioned an incident from his past that had a huge impact on his life.

However, after having a conversation with his grandmother, he was able to get himself clean and change himself for the better. Karolina was touched by the story and felt their connection growing stronger, seeing how Jakob was able to tell her a personal story from his life.

During Karolina and Jakob's first date in episode 2, the couple admitted that their connection was stronger than the rest of their connections on the show. With that, they decided to be exclusive to one another.

When Karolina returned from her date happy that she might have found the love of her life, she sat down and had a conversation with Jakob's other connection, Emmelie. After talking for a bit, the two realized that Jakob had told them the same personal story, implying that they were the only ones he had told the story to.
