Maria and Mauricio navigating communication differences in Love is Blind: Argentina

At the beginning of episode 6 of Love is Blind: Argentina, Maria, and Mauricio were sitting with all the other couples and shared their experiences about living together. She mentioned that she joined this experiment in the hope of finding love, and their last few dates helped them connect more with each other.

After the group chat, Maria attempted to discuss something meaningful in their apartment, but Mauricio interrupted with a remark about items there. She expressed her feelings, saying,

"With us, there were times when you were not listening. Or I was talking, and you interrupted me."

Maria pointed out a specific instance where she had been talking about Federico, but Mauricio shifted the topic to a cup in the apartment. In a private confessional, Maria reflected,

“For me, it was difficult to speak about what I was feeling because I didn’t like conflict."

As their conversation continued in Love is Blind: Argentina, Mauricio received a call from his daughter Pia, which further paused their discussion. Afterward, Maria decided to go to bed, suggesting they would continue their conversation the next day. Mauricio noted that neither he nor Maria actively sought conflict, and they are working on getting their relationship back on track.
