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.
It’s a great show, maybe watch a few episodes and you’ll see pretty quick what your friend is referring to. Please keep in mind that 90 Day Fiancé is a reality tv show, people apply to it or producers find people they think would make good tv. That means it’s not normal people because in my opinion what I consider normal is not going on a reality tv show, especially a dating one. So are the people on the show a good depiction of long-distance couples? I have no idea, but I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Also, watch the show. Especially if you have a potential love match in another area.
