He is one of the single women cast in the 5th season of the Netflix reality TV series, “Love Is Blind”, which premiered on September 22, 2023. In the show, he tries to find his match to start a family with. He says that he is a guy with a quirky personality and with “dad joke” humor. Jarred is also a foodie, cat dad, and runner, so his lifetime partner should be prepared for all that. He has a history of putting in extra effort to make his relationships succeed, but unfortunately, his past partners didn’t reciprocate.
In the pods, he’s searching for a balanced connection with a woman who loves him as much as he loves her because he’s tired of making compromises when he shouldn’t. He says that if his future spouse can overlook his lack of attention to detail in cleaning, they’ll discover a guy who genuinely wants to be with someone and share life with mutual compromise and respect.
He and his fellow cast members meet other single women and they date without ever meeting each other in person. They focus on building an emotional connection instead of relying on physical attraction. The hosts of Love Is Blind Season 5 are Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey.
“Love is Blind” is a social experiment featuring 14 single women and men from the same city, aiming to find true love. They go on dates for 10 days in special “pods” where they can’t see each other but communicate through a speaker, forming connections based on personalities rather than looks. Couples who connect may propose, and only after the proposal is accepted do they meet face-to-face.
Engaged couples then attend a couples’ retreat to deepen their connection, finally seeing all the cast members together. Afterward, they move into the same city apartment complex, meeting each other’s friends and families, and navigating personal habits and finances. The wedding takes place four weeks after moving in together, where they decide whether to continue the relationship or say “I Do.”
