So this is a serious question that is related to this show.

I’ve never watched the show, but a friend brought it up to me when I told them I had met someone while I was traveling and really hit it off, so I was going to go back and visit them again for a bit longer to see how things go. They excitedly laughed and said that it sounded like “a real life 90 Day Fiance” situation.

The friend explained the basic premise of this show, and said they were excited for me to see what happened. I felt a little weird about the comment, but took it in stride, since this was the first person in a long time I had been excited over.

I just randomly came across this sub and… it seems like this show is somewhat mean-spirited, in that’s it’s kind of making fun of people who are doing outrageous and outlandish types of behaviors on the fringe of societal acceptability. One comment on here said “they are not our best and brightest.”

Was this friend actually insulting me with that comment? I had weird feelings about it, but kept brushing it off as overthinking. But now, I’m really not sure anymore. Thanks in advance.

    I was a real life 90 day fiancé 😀 the show is heavily produced to have drama and they mostly show some fucked up couples who dont get to know each other properly before filing for their fiancé visas. But dont think much into what your friend said. There is nothing wrong with long distance relationships and i met my now husband due to traveling. I always laugh and joke about being a 90 day fiancé. So go explore and see where the relationship might take you.
