"We are not gonna get married" — Love is Blind star Hannah decides against marrying Nick
Hannah revealed her concerns in a one-on-one conversation with Nick in episode 11. She said the "five concerns" she had regarding Nick "never went away" because he kept repeating those actions. According to her, he lacked social awareness and respect. She claimed he was egotistical and delusional because he could never see Hannah's feelings.

"I've never seen this side of you when you constantly bash me and say, 'I'm turning you from a boy to a man.' This is just you being kind of, like, hard on me," Nick said.
The Love is Blind star added that the conversation was overwhelming him. However, Hannah refused to believe that she was "bashing" him.

While speaking to the cameras, she commented on how Nick "manipulated" her.
"Nick's very good at telling people what they want to hear. And I feel very manipulated. And I feel very weak. I feel like he was so worried about, like, how his friends, family, and everybody views him, and how bad he was gonna look instead of actually trying to focus on just being here with me and being open and honest," Hannah said.
The Love is Blind star added that she was unsure if the Nick she knew was genuine. She struggled to trust his words or actions, second-guessing his intentions for her and their relationship. Finally, she said:
"Right now, you know that this is not gonna work. We are not gonna get married."
While speaking to the cameras, Nick admitted he had no "ulterior motives other than getting married and finding love."
