Love is the blinds sara was ‘shocked’ by Ben’s response to Wedding (excluding)

WARNING: This story contains spoilers from the season 8 final of Love is blind.

Sara Carton was surprised by Ben Mezzenga’s answer at the altar.

Under Love is blind Season 8 finale, Sara and Ben came to their wedding day. But when it was time for the moment of truth, Sara said she couldn’t marry her fiancé because she “always wanted a partner to be at the same wavelength” and Ben was far from that.

After telling him she would not marry, offered legs, 28, another solution: Stay with her and continue to “grow” their relationship. Sara seemed to be caught by the guard by his proposal and laughs awkwardly and said to him, “We’ll see.”

Now Sara, 29, people, people, what she really thought about his answer and call it “disrespectful” and unexpectedly.

“I was shocked by it,” she admits. “In the end, I talked and legs several times before the wedding of discussing is this the safest decision for us? Is this the smartest decision for us? We really have to think about it. And then we were on the same page and he knew I was coming to what I would say.”

“And then when he asked it, I wasn’t shocked that he would do it or be together still after but i was Shocked he asked that by the altar by knowing the circumstance of we are here to say yes or no, “she continues.” And also just with the whole concept of you go away forever, I was like, it’s disrespectful in a way what we signed up for and all the whole point about why we’re here. And then I was shocked that he asked for it. ”

Sara also notes that she found Ben’s proposal inappropriate because she didn’t think they could backtrack from being engaged to just dating again.

“Also, I say no to a marriage, why should I continue to date someone? If you want to say no to it, why even continue the relationship?” she says. “It’s been a theme for me where I know earlier, my past relationships, I know this person is not my person, but oh, maybe they can change, or maybe there was potential there. I can see us growing together. And I wouldn’t continue the cycle of it.”

“So I’m very glad I answered the way I did to say, ‘We’ll see and we’ll talk.’ Because I would not give an answer, ”she adds. I just needed to treat everything that happened. ”

After the awkward ceremony, Sara opened herself to cameras and admitted that she was “affected” by legs that could not think deeply at major social problems. She also suspected that their love could simply have been “surface (level), fun (and) carefree.”

“I want someone to think about it,” she said. “There was no curiosity on his part … People prove who they are, actions speak louder than words. You can say what you want, but show me. It would have changed everything if he really showed priority.”

In a talk with people, Sara doubles on her faith and says, “All the time I was not looking for a right or wrong answer. I just wanted depth and be able to understand each other where we came from how we grew up, why we think and had this perception of life and the world and the people around us as we do. I love to have the deep conversations.”

“But in the belts I felt like I was happy with the conversations we had that they were at least (received). (I was) and thought ahead, we will be able to grow with this. But it just never evolved,” she admits. “It never really came to that point. And that’s what made me think, okay, in fact, there might be no depth at all.”

She adds: “There was no doubt that we had a connection, but just moving on and having depth in our relationship, I really didn’t get much from legs when I asked him questions … If I was able to have that depth with him, then I think it would have changed things maybe, but it just didn’t work.”

Despite it all, Sara has no regret. “In general, I’m very proud of myself,” she says. “For me, you need to have the discussions, especially before a commitment. You have to cross everything to make sure you have at least a foundation or generally (idea) about who this person is.”

“I’m glad to have these conversations and I will continue to have them (with future partners),” she adds. “And also just be open to knowing that the world is very gray and just keep learning about it.”
