Karolina Finskas reflects on her Love Is Blind: Sweden journey with Jakob

A relationship that began with uncertainty

During the pod stage, Karolina and Jakob formed a connection. Jakob, a 34-year-old chief marketing officer, referred to Karolina as his “soulmate” early in their conversations. However, their relationship encountered difficulties when Karolina discovered that Jakob had shared personal information with another participant, Emmelie, despite telling her she was the only one he had confided in.

Karolina accepted his explanation, and Jakob proposed during their next meeting. She agreed, and their engagement marked the beginning of the next phase of the experiment. After meeting Jakob in person, Karolina expressed concerns about their connection, and which hesitation shaped the early stages of their relationship outside the Love Is Blind: Sweden pods.

Building trust and emotional security

As they continued the experiment, Jakob consistently reassured Karolina. She later highlighted this in her social media post, writing,

"The way Jakob made me feel seen, heard, loved, and how he over and over reassured me he is not leaving me during the experiment made me feel safe and home."

She further described how Jakob’s presence allowed her to move forward in their relationship, stating,

"His presence and the way he listened to me and allowed me to take things in my own paste lead to me finally letting go and let him inside my heart fully."

Karolina credited Jakob’s support for helping her embrace their connection, leading to their wedding.
