In the 2 years that Nancy Rodriguez has been filming, a lot has happened. Loving someone you love Is Blind Season 3. She’s reached almost half a million Instagram. She’s had her engagement (and breakup) play out on national television. She’s started dating again. And she’s cut out the people who no longer serve her life, including her ex-fiancé, Bartise Bowden. 

“We’re not friends,” Nancy tells The Sunday Review BartiseShe met and became engaged to on, Loving someone you love Is Blind Season 3. “Putting myself first and knowing I want to make the best decisions with intention, there are people, not just him, in my life I’ve had to weed out.” Nancy—who returned to Netflix for the Loving someone you love Is Blind Season 3 “After the Altar” special out on February 10, 2023—is also taking that lesson to her future relationships. “If you’re not aligning with what I have to offer or you’re not bringing something to the table, what’s something that’s going to better me as a person or in our relationship?” Sie said.  “I’m sorry, you need to step to the side and I’m gonna keep swiping right until I find somebody who can truly value who I am.”

Nancy learned much about Nancy’s relationship with her husband. Bartise, including what she wants and doesn’t want in a future relationship. “It’s been a couple of years since Love Is Blind. I’m in a place where I’m even more secure with who I am as a person, professionally, financially, mentally, emotionally,” Sie says. “I’m in a place where I truly want to be intentional with who I am dating and who I’m bringing into my world.” Nancy places a high value on finding someone who can understand her culture and family dynamics. This is why Nancy partnered with ChispaShe just began using, which is a Latino dating app. “If they meet my family, they’ll understand why my family is so intensely powerful, and how much they love me,” Sie says. “It’s important for me and my dating journey now to be able to make those genuine connections with people who will get it.”

Nancy spoke to The Sunday Review about her life and whereabouts. Bartise They are after the Loving someone you love Is Blind Season 3 “After the Altar” special finished filming, if she knew he was on Netflix’s new dating show The Perfect Match, and who she would date from the Netflix reality TV universe.

What has happened? Loving someone you love Is Blind What if you were able to change the way that you date? 

What did I see when I imagined it? Bartise However, that is not what it looked like. Because it was me connecting to the individual that was his personality through a wall. There’s something very nostalgic about that. Where Loving someone you love Is Blind has helped me is I’m coming in with questions. I’m coming in with like, “This is who I am, and this is what I offer” It’s important to find people who are open to this. It has helped me because it’s so much easier for me to be vulnerable with someone that I’m meeting versus you beat around the bush, you maybe don’t ask the questions you want to ask. When I meet girlfriends, they give me advice. “Just tell them you don’t like him!” And then they’re like, “No, what if I tell him that I’m super busy at work, and I’m stuck with the BS?” Speak up! Loving someone you love Is Blind This has allowed me to trust that I can just be who and what I want. If it’s not coming from them organically, it’s not for you.

Did anyone have preconceived notions about you based solely on their experiences with you? Loving someone you love Is Blind?

It’s not something I want to believe they are aware of. I haven’t had a bad reaction or  a wow factor reaction. But I’m kind of nervous for when that does happen. Part of me wants to hope that they don’t know me from the show because I want them to get to know me for who I am. Part of me wants to be like “Well, if you know who I am, and you saw the show, you should already know what you’re signing yourself up for.” It’s a 50/50, whether I want them to know about the show, and have they seen it or not.

Where Are you, Bartise now? 

We’re not friends. It’s been a long time. Putting myself first and knowing I want to make the best decisions with intention, there are people, not just him, in my life I’ve had to weed out. This is also a big help in my relationship world. Because if you’re not aligning with what I have to offer or you’re not bringing something to the table, what’s something that’s going to better me as a person or in our relationship? I’m sorry, you need to step to the side and I’m gonna keep swiping right until I find somebody who can truly value who I am. But most importantly, they need to know where they’re at. Making friends and building relationships with others who are in the process of healing is easier. Because when people are completely unaware, or they don’t know what their actions are doing to other people, and they don’t realize that they’re hurting others, that’s a them problem. I don’t need that in my life. You need to let go. Over the past two years, I made space for my family and brain. I’ve been making space for people who have truly loved me for who I am and have cherished that and will help me to be a better Nancy than I already am.

You didn’t know Bartise It was to be on Perfect Match?

No, I didn’t

What would you like to be? Perfect Match?

I’m totally open to other reality TV shows. Loving someone you love Is Blind Was something that was truly unique. ‘If I get picked for this, this is the one show I would actually do.’ It was because I felt like I knew who I was even before I entered it. Personally, it was before. Loving someone you love Is BlindThis is what it would look like. ‘Oh, if it happens, it’s an experience, sure.’ But it really did teach me a lot about myself. I’m just so glad I was able to do such a cool experience where I could learn from this, and then just be a better person.

Is there anyone in the Netflix reality TV universe you’re interested in?

It’s kind of like dating your cousin. I don’t know if I could do that. Many of the Netflix girls I admire and love are my exes. So I can’t imagine dating one of their exes. It’s messy. It’s messy.

Loving someone you love Is Blind Netflix has season 3 available for streaming.
