Even though I think she could try harder to integrate, it’s clear they just want her gone at this point which doesn’t make it any easier. She never even mentions going back, but they constantly jump to that whenever there’s a problem rather than trying to find a solution. They seemed to really embrace her with the wedding and all but either it was for all for show or she’s really worn her welcome. TJ looks so fed up but that’s what he gets for deceiving her honestly.

    I’m not a fan of Kimberly’s, but I have empathy for her. Depression is no joke. She has been spiraling and has no support. The lack of empathy shown by TJ is terrible. Of course, he has his own issues, but Kimberly needs help. She is clearly stressed out and appears to be having a breakdown.

    I have the impression she is immature and not equipped to deal with culture shock and the necessary adjustments as well. It certainly didn’t help that TJ wasn’t honest with her about what was expected of her before they got married.

    I know from experience with having a partner from a different culture, love isn’t enough. For a relationship between people from two different cultures, especially where one of them moves to their partner’s country and lives with their family, it’s essential to be mature and prepared to male a lot of effort and to have the love abd support of your partner to help you adjust.
