“Love Is Blind’s” season 7’s Nick Dorka has no regrets about anything he said in the pods, despite several of the ladies calling him out for being a “smooth talker.”
The former all-American college football player says this wouldn’t be the first time he’s caught flak for his self-proclaimed “flirty” personality.
“I’ve heard that sometimes I’m a smooth talker. But honestly, it’s really easy just to talk to someone and create conversation and chop it up,” he told Daily News. “And sometimes it may come across as a little flirty.”
The 29-year-old real estate agent connected with Hannah Jiles in the pods, who initially expressed her reluctance to choose him due to his words sounding too “perfect.”
“I have a lot of concerns with you. Why are you here? Like, why did you want to do this,” Hannah asked Nick in the pods. “You say all the right things, like you’re great, you’re perfect. I don’t know what it is. Everytime I ask you a question, you articulate it great.”
Hannah continued: “I don’t know what is. There’s this gut feeling, I can’t figure it out and I just don’t like it.”
Despite that “gut feeling,” the medical sales professional eventually came around and accepted his proposal when another connection didn’t work out.
“You’re confident. You’ve got it together, like you’re this athlete, football guy, like I just saw a picture of this superficial person. And then the more we spoke and got deep,” she told Nick during the third episode. “You’re just so much more than what people think of you.”
Although Nick responded to all this criticism in the pods by assuring Hannah that he was committed to being loyal to her, Nick also says he’s not ashamed of anything he did or said throughout the experiment.
“It played out exactly how it was supposed to. I feel like I was myself and I had some fun with it. No regrets.”
