Marissa's perspective shifted significantly during the Love is Blind Season 7 Reunion filming. She previously thought the breakup decision happened suddenly. However, the reunion discussion revealed Ramses had considered ending their relationship throughout the week before telling her. Marissa’s exact statement was,
"Prior to tonight, I had thought Ramses made the decision to break up with me that day. But now, after sitting through the reunion and hearing what he had to say, I do believe that he was stewing on it a little bit longer and just didn't tell me, no matter how many times I asked him, 'Are you sure?'"
The critical phone call
The Love is Blind Season 7 relationship's final chapter began with a crucial phone call two days before their split.
According to Marissa's detailed account to Glamour magazine, Ramses received a call from a family friend with connections to his ex-wife. Upon returning home that evening, Marissa found Ramses in an emotional state.
The timing carried additional weight as his ex-wife planned her wedding ceremony during the same month as their scheduled celebration.
"And I come home from school one night, and he’s very upset and emotional about his ex-wife. He’s crying, and I’m like, ‘What’s going on, baby?’...That was probably the only time I thought this might not work out." Marissa shared with Glamour.
Love is Blind Season 7 star continued,
“So the next day, he’s just in a different mood…He is not this chatty, lovey guy. I didn’t have class that day, so we were both at home and we aren’t meshing. He’s not listening to me, he’s not talking to me, and I’m starting to feel ignored, and I started to feel like something’s off. And then he calls a friend. And the way he describes me to this friend, I’m just like, ‘Do you even like me?’”
Post-breakup developments
The months following their split saw multiple changes in their relationship status. A significant moment came in early 2024 when Marissa approached Ramses about rekindling their relationship.
"Like, February or March, I did ask him if he wanted to get back together,...I’m not really ashamed to say that, because I’m someone who’s like, if you feel it, you feel it, like, what’s the worst that can happen? And he’s like, ‘Nah.’ So after that, we just stopped communication," she revealed.
After his rejection, their communication patterns underwent several transformations. They maintained contact for closure discussions, then transitioned to frequent friendly conversations before the reunion filming.
The Love is Blind Season 7 Reunion marked a final turning point in their relationship. The filming revealed previously unknown details about the breakup timeline and Ramses' decision-making process. It created a final rift between them. Marissa confirmed that their current relationship status involves no communication.
