Love Is Blind Habibi stars Mdio and Asma connected during the initial days in the pods and found each other's goofy personalities appealing. Mido wanted to explore more about Asma, but, for Asma, Khatab had everything she wanted in her partner. In episode 2, when Khatab declared that he was confident about his connection, Mido was upset and felt dejected.

Asma and Mido met in the pods again, but Mido did not feel like hearing Asma's reasons for choosing Khatab over Mido. Their chapter ended with a brief date, and both of them got engaged to different people. As the show progressed, Mido found Nour and got engaged to her. Although the couple did not last long outside the pod, for Mido it was a great experience as he mentioned in the reunion.

However, during the reunion, Mido expressed that he regretted not allowing Asma to explain her reasons for not choosing him. He said:

"I didn't give Asma the chance to clarify her perspective. I apologize for not giving you the chance to speak and explain whatever you were feeling. Out of respect for everything we shared in the pods, it was very genuine, from my side. She is amazing in every way."

Asma and Mido from Love Is Blind Habibi bonded at their very first meeting in the pods and liked each other. Mido was inclined towards Asma as his future life partner while Asma was torn between Khatab and Mido. As far as ods are concerned, Mido and Asma had three meetings. Their first meeting was short, but they had formed a nice impression of each other.

During their second meeting, Mido was excited and certain that their energy level matched and she could be his "life partner". Mido mentioned in his introductory clip that he wanted someone who could match his humor and personality. He was looking for someone balanced who would prioritize character over physical beauty. When asked by Asma in the pods what was he looking for in his life partner, he answered:

"I want to be with someone I enjoy living with, and I won't get bored of. We can play, fool around, watch a movie, and joke. i want to feel I have another soul with me just a body."

Mido also expressed that he could imagine living his whole life with Asma, and she complimented his personality. However, Asma decided to go with Khatab in the end.

During the Love Is Blind Habibi reunion, Asma explained that she had a great time with Mido in the pods. They formed a genuine connection and she liked talking to Mido a lot. However, she pointed out that she was not able to go deep with Mido and their conversation was mostly surface-level. She could not find all the components she was looking for in her life partner.

Asma and Khatab had a rollercoaster journey from pods to the altar, which included breaking up, leaving the show, reconciling, and joining the experiment again. The couple promised to carry forward their relationship in the real world after taking Asma's parents in confidence.

However, the Love Is Blind Habibi former couple revealed after almost two months of staying, they decided to call it off since they were unable to balance their work life along with it.


Love Is Blind Habibi premiered on October 10, 2024, on Netflix and Netflix MENA. The reunion is out, fans can go and watch their favorite pod squad talking about their experiences.
