"If neither of us is willing to change or compromise, it's smart for everyone to part ways," Karma said.

The Love is Blind: Habibi star admitted she had never met someone who rejected her for something she liked. However, she remained adamant about not compromising on her interests.

Ammar stated he did not regret participating in the social experiment because it helped him become a better person.

"By the way, you did well to hold on to what you love. Because believe me, many men love a woman who has hobbies and interests. Well done, honestly. Always follow your heart."
