Pod conversations between Emily and Santiago in Love is Blind: Argentina
During their first conversation in the pods of Love is Blind: Argentina, Santiago opened up about a dream he had before they met; he had seen Emily's name and felt compelled to write it down the moment he woke up. This admission moved Emily, who felt an instant spark as she realized the special nature of their connection.
As they continued to talk, they found out they both lived in the same area on the west side, adding to the list of coincidences and signs they were destined to meet. Emily, a student with aspirations of becoming a journalist, later shared in a confessional her fears of repeating past trauma.
She confided in Santiago about a toxic and abusive relationship, expressing her relief in finding someone who seemed understanding and kind. Santiago, responding with empathy, encouraged her to open up without judgment, reinforcing her feelings of safety and trust.
After their first conversation, Emily felt she no longer needed to connect with other participants in Love is Blind: Argentina, realizing Santiago could be the person she was searching for. Their next conversations became even more meaningful as they discussed their families, childhood experiences, and ambitions, finding more common ground and comfort with each other.
The first reveal of season 1 of Love is Blind: Argentina
After meaningful conversations that solidified his trust in her, Santiago proposed to Emily. He knelt and spoke all his feelings, saying,
"I think the two of us were destined to meet. Emi, my love, you crazy Boca Juniors fan, I'm down on one knee. Will you marry me?"
Emily's acceptance of his proposal signified a new beginning for the couple, setting the stage for the reveal, where they would see each other for the first time. When they finally met face-to-face, the emotional weight of the moment hit them. Emily described their first kiss as if it were her 'first kiss ever,' while getting emotional in the confession. She said,
"Our kiss felt like I had gone back in time, like I was having my first kiss again."
Santiago, visibly overwhelmed, embraced Emily and praised her beauty, saying she looked like a princess. In a later confessional, Santiago reflected on how Emily looked even better than he had imagined, comparing her to a doll and a princess. The couple got engaged in person at the beginning of episode 2 and look forward to the next steps in the experiment of Love is Blind: Argentina.
