Loveless coupling made in the dark (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uninformed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in the dark' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'loveless coupling made' is the wordplay.
'loveless coupling' becomes 'unin' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'made' becomes 'formed' ('form' can be a synonym of 'make').
'unin'+'formed'='UNINFORMED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for uninformed that I've seen before include "Missing dope" , "Not knowledgeable" , "in the dark" , "Lacking intelligence" .)
