As the reunion dropped on Friday, November 1, fans could not contain their excitement and reacted in numbers on the internet. Love Is Blind Habibi star Simo is getting trolled for his unapologetic stance during the reunion which did not sit well with the fans. They felt that he should have taken accountability for things he did wrong in the show.
Fans called Simo out for expecting things from Hajar, but never apologized for intervening between her and Nour in episode 7, telling Nour to turn around knowing that Hajar was doing the same. One of the fans took to X after the reunion and commented:
"Even in Western culture, Simo was sus AF for telling Nour to turn around to check her dress when Hajar was right there tending to her. What was he inserting himself for to catch a glimpse of her body #LoveIsBlindHabibi #loveisblind #loveisblindhabibireunion #LOVEISBLINDreunion"
Other fans joined the conversation and criticized other men along with Simo for their actions during the reunion. The comments read:
"Why are the men all cool with Simo saying he wasn't good for Hajar and she wasn't good for him which is why they aren't together? Yet gave Karma a hard time for saying the same thing abt her and Ammar + breaking up with him. loveisblindHabibi #loveisblind #LOVEISBLINDreunion"
"We just heard Ammar say that in Arab culture a look can mean more than a touch. Yet, Simo is saying he was in the right to tell Nour to do a turn so he could see if there was a stain on her butt in the dress. loveisblindHabibi #loveisblind #LOVEISBLINDreunion"
I want to know what kind of support Simo wanted from Hajar when he was physically fighting with Chafic. She has a point. Did he want her to jump in loveisblindHabibi #loveisblind #loveisblindhabibireunion #LOVEISBLINDreunion
I'm so glad the host lady is asking Simo about the moment he told Nour to turn around when there was dirt in her dress. That was hella disrespectful to Hajar loveisblindHabibi #loveisblind #loveisblindhabibireunion #LOVEISBLINDreunion
"Simo hates women, why did he apologize to everyone except Hajar? #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
Love Is Blind Habibi star Hajar feels Simo's love "ended in the resort"
Love Is Blind Habibi's former couple Hajr and Simo did not end on a positive note as Simo abruptly left the resort without letting Hajar know. Hajar was upset about his behavior and called him a "coward".
During the reunion, Hajar claimed that Simo's love faded as soon as they entered the resort. In episode 7 of Love Is Blind Habibi, when Simo and Chafic got into a fight, Hajar stayed aside in silence with Nour, which angered Simo.
He said if his life partner cannot support him in tough times, she cannot be his life partner. Hajar, on the other hand, claimed that it was not the real reason why Simo left. She added:
"I feel upset that people think Simo left because I didn't stand by him. I don't see it that way. I have a different point of view. I think he left because he could not swallow his pride in his fight with Chafic."
Love Is Blind Habibi reunion aired on Netflix MENA and Netflix on November 1.
