She shared that she has a “hard time trusting people” because of a past abusive relationship. After it ended, she moved abroad and promised herself that no one would hurt her again.

Charles listened and said he was touched by her honesty. Their conversation showed that both were willing to connect on a deeper level.

At the same time, Charles also said he was building another bond with Sarah, which made his journey more complicated.

Julie opens up about past relationships and emotional barriers in Love Is Blind: France

During their blind date in Love Is Blind: France, Julie told Charles that she had been single for eight years. She explained,

“To be honest, I’ve been single for eight years. I had two long relationships, five years and two and a half years, and for the past eight years, I haven’t been emotionally available to start a new relationship.”

When Charles asked her why she struggled to be open again, Julie shared her story. She said,

“Well, what happened was my ex was… he was abusing me. And that’s why I have a hard time trusting people.”

Julie added that things improved when she decided to live abroad and focus on herself. She told him she made a promise to herself that “no man would ever lay a hand on me again.”

Her honesty set the tone for the conversation, and Charles admitted in his private confession that he was “really moved” by the way she opened up. He felt that her words brought them “a lot closer,” and he decided that he would also be transparent with her moving forward.

Charles admitted that her words left him shaken, telling her,

“For real, it’s to feel so much, honestly. Like, how did you take the lead in the conversation? It’s crazy. You’re the one who has shaken me up the most here.”
