Falling in love without ever seeing the other person demands a different level of trust and a strong belief in one’s own choices. It requires faith not only in the process but also in the emotional connection being built. Netflix’s ‘Love Is Blind: Germany’ brings together individuals willing to challenge conventional dating and give themselves that chance. In season two, Josy and Gunnar were fortunate to find each other. Although their journey unfolded differently from others, their decisions were made for the right reasons, and that ultimately made all the difference.
Josy and Gunnar Had Similar Ideas About the Life They Wanted
When Gunnar entered the experiment, there was one concern he was very open about from the start. He had decided that he did not want to have children, and he knew that finding a partner who was comfortable with that choice would not be easy. During his first conversation with Josy, however, she did not dismiss his outlook on life. Instead, she wanted to understand what had led him to that decision. Josy admitted that while having children was something she had never actively planned for, she was also open to exploring a life without them. As their conversations deepened, Gunnar and Josy began to feel increasingly in sync. At the same time, Josy was also building a connection with Jubriel, which added complexity to her decision.
When she and Gunnar discussed their political views and the kind of life they envisioned, things seemed aligned. Yet when Gunnar expressed his feelings, Josy hesitated. She told him she did not feel the spark she had imagined and questioned whether he projected the strength she associated with a future partner. The very next day, Josy reflected on her words, apologized, and acknowledged that her doubts were rooted in preconceived ideas about masculinity. Shortly after, Gunnar proposed. Their first meeting was emotional and intense, even though they did not kiss right away. Once on the retreat, their chemistry became undeniable. Josy often teased Gunnar about his lifestyle, something he recognized as affection. Sitting by the pool, they finally shared their first kiss.
At the retreat, they both openly acknowledged that the way they had come together was truly special, and before returning to everyday life, they expressed their love for each other. Back in Munich, Josy observed Gunnar’s relationship with his family and noticed how different it was from her own. Watching him interact with his family daily made her wonder if he would have similar expectations of her. When she eventually met his family, she was touched by the warmth and affection they showed her. On the topic of children, Josy shared that if she ever wanted kids in the future, her only choice would be to build that life with Gunnar. As their wedding day approached, such questions remained, yet above all, the love they shared for each other remained the guiding force.
Josy and Gunnar Could Seemingly be Married to One Another
Josy and Gunnar approached their relationship with a sense of calm that set them apart from many others in the experiment. From the very beginning in the pods, they chose not to rush into expectations or force emotional milestones. Even after meeting face-to-face, they continued to move at a pace that felt natural to both of them, which in itself was a positive sign of mutual understanding and respect. One of the more sensitive topics between them was the question of children. While Josy had not entirely ruled out the idea, Gunnar acknowledged that she had only recently begun thinking about what that choice would mean for her life. He never dismissed her uncertainty. Instead, he gave her the space to voice her questions, doubts, and fears, responding with patience and openness rather than pressure.
This ability to navigate a potentially divisive issue with empathy highlighted the emotional maturity in their connection. The way Josy and Gunnar consistently handled each other’s feelings by reassurance, listening closely, and showing support, suggested that they could face other challenges together as well. Their lifestyles and expectations seemed aligned as well, and no disagreements were big enough that they could not get past them. For now, they have chosen to keep some distance from the public eye, making it difficult to know exactly where their journey stands. However, their strong communication and grounded personalities indicate that, whatever direction their relationship takes, they are equipped to handle it thoughtfully and with care.
