Micah Lussier may not have found her happily ever after with Paul Peden on Love Is Blind, but she has no regrets about her journey. Just one day after what would've been her one-year wedding anniversary to Paul, Micah answered a series of questions from her followers on Instagram. One fan was curious about how Micah viewed her time on the Netflix series and asked,
"Knowing the outcome, would you do the show
again?"
Micah replied on her Instagram story,
"Yes. I believe everything happens for a reason,"
Micah & Paul's Contraversary
Paul, 29, and Micah, 27, starred on season 4 of the hit
Netflix reality show where they got engaged sight unseen. Throughout their
journey, the pair were not on the same page when it came to their long-term
goals. Paul didn't like Micah's idea to "bounce back and forth"
between Seattle and where she lives in Arizona. She also wasn't interested in
living at Paul's current Seattle apartment, instead suggesting they get another
place together. Eventually, they parted ways on their wedding day.
Micah Justify Herself
"I think as a viewer, it might seem like I was afraid
of saying yes and him saying no. It was actually quite the opposite, I felt
like if I said yes, he might feel like he had to and like he was backed in a
corner. And I wanted him to answer for him. I wanted him to say yes or say no because it's
what he felt was right in his heart. And I think the only way to do that,
knowing him so well, was for him to go ahead and answer first."
Why Micah Move Back to Scottsdale
"We did try dating. I think there was a little bit of a rocky foundation from everything that had happened since we didn't get married, I had moved back to Scottsdale, so we were trying to do long distance and I just don't think either of our hearts are fully in it anymore. I did always think that there was a chance we would maybe try things again down the road. But after everything that's come out, I think that's kind of not likely."
Micah Showed Positive Outlook
"I felt like it was the worst thing that could be said.
I think because, you know, you would've been a great mom and he knew how
important it was for me to be a mom. It's something that I've talked about
since the pods, how important having family was to me. Paul, I'll always be so
thankful that you came into my life, We shared something so special together
& no one will ever be able to replace that. No matter what I'll always love
you. Sometimes we have to let go of what
we thought was meant to be, and although it's difficult it's also an
opportunity for growth."
All four seasons of Love Is Blind are now streaming on Netflix.
