Love is Blind: Habibi: Mido and Nour's first meeting outside of pods - Details explored

Love is Blind: Habibi Episode 4, Catching Up with Cupid, featured the first meeting between various engaged couples. One of them was Nour and Mido. Due to the heat, Nour had consistently felt quite "hot" when the couple's meeting commenced.

As Nour described, the reason was that her hair was "very long" and "too much." Out of curiosity, Mido asked the female cast member about the time required to do her hair. She shared,

"Someone does my hair for me."

While Nour appreciated Mido's bouquet that he sent to her room earlier, the male cast member appreciated her physical appearance, especially her lips. He mentioned she looked like "Pocahontas."

"Do you think if my looks weren't your type, or you didn't like them, would that have changed anything?" asked Nour.

The Love is Blind: Habibi star refused and shared that if talking with someone is comfortable, then "appearance doesn't matter." He then asked if she normally focused on the eyes of the person in front of her.

Nour mentioned that she wouldn't look into a person's eyes if she felt shy or awkward. She admitted doing that during their first meeting.

The female cast members asked whether he could "get used" to having Nour in his life.

"It depends on you. It's not about me. It depends on you, " Mido said.

He added that if she seeks his presence in her life, then that would be the difference. He mentioned that she wouldn't get used to it if she didn't have time for him.

While Mido was trying to connect with Nour on a deeper level, the latter couldn't focus because she was feeling "so much hot." Seeing such behavior from his potential bride, Mido did not look happy, as he confessed to getting "negative vibes."

"You know when you feel that someone is, like, really excited to see you? Yet I didn't feel that for some kind of reason. I still haven't felt that you really, really truly feel something very strong for me," shared Mido.

He then asked what Nour was hiding, to which she said nothing. She then admitted not knowing what was on Mido's mind. Later, during their date, the Love is Blind: Habibi star mentioned something "changed" in Nour.

"She changed for some kind of reason. I don't know what."

Despite Nour's mention of nothing being changed, she said it "changed for the better." With such talks about "changes", Love is Blind: Habibi stars Mido and Nour's first meeting outside the pods ended.


Fans can stream Mido and Nour's journey on Netflix and enjoy all the episodes of Love is Blind: Habibi released on the streaming platform.
