Taylor and Daniel's conversation in Love Is Blind season 8 episode 2

During their time in the Love Is Blind pods, Taylor revealed to Daniel that her father’s name is also Daniel. She had never mentioned it before, leading to Daniel’s surprised reaction: "It is?" He followed up with, "Oh, no." She shared that she loved her father and was initially excited when she learned Daniel’s name.

Taylor then shared a deeply personal moment, revealing that her father had been diagnosed with a rare type of cancer. She said:

"A temporary thing. So, he's been doing treatment, and the doctors are all very confident that everything's headed in the right direction and he's going to be fine."

However, she admitted that as a nurse, her mind immediately considered worst-case scenarios. Taylor spoke about the fear of possibly not having her father walk her down the aisle. She reflected on how illness brings a new perspective on relationships, saying:

"It's unfortunate that it takes an illness or something to make you realize those things."

Daniel, visibly moved, acknowledged her emotions, saying, "That's real life." The conversation then shifted to their views on relationships. Daniel shared childhood memories with his father and expressed his excitement for marriage. He said:

"I'm looking forward to a marriage where I get you flowers or, like, just randomly, like, write you a little note. I love the little things."

Taylor agreed, saying that small gestures like surprise food deliveries made her happy. She added:

"Something as small as, you know, I say I'm hungry, then there's a knock on the door 20 minutes later and it's my favorite food or something, like, Taco Bell."

Daniel responded enthusiastically, saying, "I love Taco Bell." Taylor then revealed that she had a tattoo inside her bottom lip that said “Taco Bell.” Daniel was surprised, asking, "Shut up. Yeah. Is that your only tattoo?" Taylor confirmed, saying, "It's my one and only, yeah." Daniel reacted by saying:

"Why does it make me more attracted to you?"

Taylor explained that she got the tattoo in a hidden spot so her mother wouldn’t find out. She also mentioned that lip tattoos fade quickly, revealing, "So, it technically only says Taco B, right?"

Daniel found it amusing and even suggested, "If things work out here, I will get a matching Taco Bell tattoo." Taylor encouraged him to pick his favorite fast food instead, to which Daniel responded:

"I'd probably do maybe Chick-fil-A."
