90 Day Fiancee - Season 5

[Oliversmom 250]

I agree that Aika should think about getting away from Josh.  Aika seems like a nice lady who just wants to start a family with her husband.  And all he can do is talk about her modeling and how cool it is to have a hot wife to show off.

 

I REALLY felt like crying along with Annie as she was leaving her family.  David seems like such a loser and totally incapable of supporting her while she can't work.  I have no doubt she will end up supporting him.

 

Don't even get me started on Evelyn.  She is nowhere near ready for marriage.  She has a LOT of growing up to do. 

 

Now I really don't like Nicole.  BUT I do feel sorry for her.  Azan could encourage her without insulting her.  I get that he wants her to be healthier but he is constantly putting her down.  If he doesn't like who she is then they should not be together. Those two are not a good match.  As for May being too old for diapers - well I think she is three.  I teach three year olds and I have some in my class still in diapers.  Usually by three they are potty trained but not always.  Ahh, the joys of potty training lol.

I'm not convinced about Luis's intentions (Luis'sss, sounds funny)

I have Dominican friends, and even though real relationships obviously do exist, in DR (like in other third world countries,  Ghana, Philippines etc) getting an American is considered almost a business. Men and women go to every length possible to be able to land jobs in the tourist industry/hotels where they have easy access to Americans/Europeans. There’s even a movie on this topic, it’s called Sanky Panky, and that’s the name given to a Dominican looking for what we call ''gringos'' The goal is to marry an American or European and leave the island/escape poverty. They will charm the victims with everything they've got and they're pretty convincing at that, that's why lonely, middle-aged divorced men and women are such good targets, unfortunately. but once they get those documents they usually bail, for someone younger/hotter, claiming ''the relationship just didn't work'' This is why I honestly believe catching fraud is such a difficult thing to do, especially because most times, the U.S citizens don't have a clue they're being tricked and the bona fide evidence seems solid. I wonder how many people are unknowingly going through this on VJ, I wish it could be prevented more. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I married a Dominican and we're happily married, but I also see many who do not live happily ever after.

 

Pedro ticked me off last season. He was "Dominican", but clearly already spoke fluent English. You could catch it in his fake accent and when he understood that people were saying. I speak fluent Spanish and noticed after a while, but my Dominican husband caught it in the first 5 minutes. We think that Pedro has family in the DR but has spent most of his life in the US.

 

Luis is actually from the DR, by his accent. A classic sanky.

Did you see in the clip for the upcoming episode Luis having his bachelor party? He acted like a pig. Also how he spoke to Molly's daughters is wrong. 

My husband is Dominican also, I showed him Luis photo and told him about the show. He said ohhh he's a sanky.

11/19 Episode:

 

At first I was wary of Aika, but I am starting to like her more. I think she is right to want a new engagement ring, and not continue to wear the ring that Josh's ex had...though she could have maybe been more reasonable in terms of the price of the new ring. She wants a family but Josh has trouble conceiving...he made it sound like he's trying to reverse a possible vasectomy. Seems he hasn't been completely honest... I would run if I were her. 

 

Annie's goodbye to her family was very emotional. I feel bad for her as well. David seems like a broke alcoholic with no ambition. 

 

Spanish David and Evelyn are just not a good match. I think she's a bit too immature and young to get married

 

I get where Luis is coming from when he says that he feels like he is in prison. He can't work, can't drive, doesn't seem to know anyone besides Molly and her family. I know my husband is struggling with similar issues while we wait for his green card/work permit. But then he went on to say that he wants to go back to the DR eventually...not sure how Molly will take that. 

 

Nicole went to the gym with Azan as her personal trainer! Azan claims to be 55% attracted to her in her current state. While I do feel a bit bad for Nicole having to listen to her fiance insult her, at the same time I understand that Azan wants her to be able to live a healthy life. Not sure how old May is, but she seems a little old to still be wearing diapers. Maybe she only wears them at night?

I agree with you on Aika and Josh. It does sound like he has a problem conceiving and in retrospect it is probably a  vasectomy in all honesty. When I look at them I think that she is ready to settle down and family, all the while he wants to have a hot pin up type model to show off. 

 

Did I hear right that David has spent nearly 2 years in Thailand? Also why would he not tell his kids that he is at least engaged to be married? This is all skeptical to me and he seems "off"

 

I like David because I can see that he is pretty level headed and mature, all the while Evelyn is being a 18 year old immature brat. When I saw that she was going to the "recording studio" I was thinking it was going to be better than that. I have several friends of mine out here in LA that record out of their garage,and they have a more serious set up than that "producer" does, gosh amateur hour to the extreme. She is all about her small town and how they can make a life together there, but does not want to take into account that she needs to sacrifices as well. I really don't see this ending well for them to because she is to immature for him.

 

Nicole is just plain lazy in my book and does not want to put in the hard work for Azan. I am thinking May is about 2-3 years old and I am guessing by Nicole's parenting that she still wears a diaper all the time. Why would you allow a child to eat in the bed?

I am with you in regards to Aika. 

 

I think Azan has tried to help Nicole but is getting fed up with the excuses from her about this or that and how America is so different. I agree about May as well with potty training. My 3rd child is four and she only wears a nightie diaper for any type of "accidents", but it stays on all night without needing to be changed. She is fine during the daytime and is potty trained but it's just at night.

Azan's concerns about Nicole are legit. She's an insecure girl, who has an excuse for everything he says. That was too funny when she said she wasn't hungry, and Azan was like never heard that before lol I can see he wants a healthy partner, but he is insulting to her. Nicole needs to get her head out of the clouds, this relationship isn't meant to be.

 

Josh seems like some controlling ex crack head, we need to go to the gym, you need to look hot and show yourself off ect. He doesn't look that buff or fit to me himself. They both want different things in life, Akia a family with Josh and he wants arm candy. I hope she realizes he's not marriage or father material. 

 

Annie was duped by a broke, less then honest, seemingly alcoholic. David has nothing to offer her, heck he's afraid for his kids to meet her, who 2 of them are older then her btw. 

 

Andrei and Libby, yikes I cringe when I see them together. It's his way or not at all and her dad and brother obviously weren't impressed. 

 

I'm over Evelyn, please give us a break for an episode or two from her and the whining about I've planned this wedding my whole life 

 

This lot here makes me miss Jungle boy!!

What I heard Jungle Boy is still in the Jungle, he moved down to Brazil due to "complications with the K1 visa". 

 

I have said before and she just confirms it every week with little snippets that Libby drops that "Andrei has a temper" or "sometimes he can't control himself". You know who says that? A woman beater says that to try to justify his actions to himself and his partner. 

 

I really want to see the next episode where David tells her family "it's not about what you want anymore, it's about what we want". 

 

I think Azan is just fed up with how Nicole always has an excuse for everything honestly. I can see now he has good intentions with her but is becoming increasingly frustrated with her inaction with everything. Also what got me is Nicole saying that "they have to make the most of 2 months together". I was like 2 months really, what job in their right mind would let someone go for 2 months?

I'm not sure what to think of Andrei. It does seem like he may have some control issues, but I wonder if some of that is urged on by the producers so that their story line has some kind of drama (his joke about women being bad drivers seemed kind of forced to me). I do think he seems like a man who cares for Libby and that he wants to take care of her, though he should loosen up a little and let her hang out with her sisters/friends. I can see why he would be a little uneasy about Libby going to Vegas for her bachelorette party,  but I do think they might be able to work things out. I think he handled the meeting with Libby's father and brother very well. The reality is that he can't work until he gets his EAD or green card, so of course there isn't much he can do at the moment to support him and Libby. 

 

I genuinely feel sorry for Spanish David, Annie and Aika. I have a little bit of sympathy for Nicole too, but I also can see things from Azan's point of view. They spent 2 months together and she is upset that he goes out for coffee with a friend for a few hours? If Azan makes it to America (I think his interview is soon!), I see them continuing to have communication issues.

Different cultures are different. We may see it as insulting but things may be different there. I know in the Philippines if someone is overweight people have no problem telling you "wow, you're so fat". But I do agree they will not work out as a couple. You need to find the person that is what you want, not find someone and turn them into what you want. It never works.

[Eric-Pris 1,607]

First off, Azan is not trying to get Nicole to be more healthy.  He wants her to lose the weight, so he can be attracted to her.  Yeah, if he works out, he may want her to do so too, but good luck.  She is lazy.  And him calling her lazy isn't meant to insult her, I just don't think he knows a different way to say it.  When he said that he's only 55% attracted to her, I actually felt really bad for her.  Nobody should be with somebody who's 55% attracted to them.  Anybody with any kind of self-esteem would've told him to take a hike right there and then.  She obviously has some of those issues.  She will never change and he'll just accept it and become another Mohammad. 

 

Spanish David is very mature and practical whereas she's in fantasy land.  They had a set budget and she chose a crappy "vintage" apartment to look at because she likes it, even when he clearly hates it.  His opinion means little to her.  The way she talks, it's almost as if a foreigner's opinion isn't as important as hers because "this is America, for your information".  And the "producer"  segment was hilarious.  That is exactly the type and quality of "music" that I expected to hear from her.  Suffice to say, not my type of music.  LOL  Funny hearing the producer saying that she would regret moving away from that crappy town and not realize her full music potential.  He's just going to get fed up with that cult and just leave one day.

 

It's annoying hearing Molly and Nicole complaining that Luis and Azan aren't doing a good job as step-fathers.  The fact that they already have them penciled it for the role is pretty disturbing.  They barely know each other.  And these guys are young and don't really want the role.  Molly seems like she just wants a helper for her kids.   

 

The other David is a sad case.  A broke drunk who doesn't even have a home (residence) in the US.  I'm not sure what his plan is to support her and where they will live.  It sounds like he'll go to his kids and probably hope that they accept Annie and ill let them stay with them.  If not, who knows.  Annie will endure all that nonsense (no house, no money, him drunk, etc) because her goal is to make it in the US to support her "parents and family" as her mother clearly stated to the camera during the goodbyes.

 

Aika came off bad in the beginning but she seems to be pretty level headed.  He doesn't want what she wants.  He just want a piece of a to parade around town.  Very loser-ish move.  Smells like somebody who never got a hot girl so decided to look abroad for somebody willing to be with him, mainly to come to the US. 

 

Andrei is a typical eastern Euro male, especially from one of those former soviet union countries, they are still living a hundred years behind the rest of the world in almost everything.  I spent a good chunk of my childhood in eastern Europe so I've seen these kinds of attitudes towards women.  She is also very low self-esteem to allow him to treat her like that, and change the way she is and what she wants, just to be with him.  Like I said in the past, I would not be shocked to find out that he's laid a hand on her in the past.  It's a little surprising that he's not more "westernized" since he's been living in Ireland.  I'm thinking he's not really that way but the show makes him play it up for show.

Boys usually take longer than girls to be potty trained and girls are usually potty trained by 2 years. Of course they still wear pull ups for a while. I think it's just the way Nicole parents.

That's because boys can just whip it out whenever they want. You mean the the way Nicole lacks of parenting right?

We all need to realize that reality tv is not so real and a lot of the scenes are scripted or at least they take several takes and the producers tell them what to say to have more effect. We probably see less than 5% of what is filmed and they carefully edit it to paint a story about each person to create an image for us. The more drama the better as far as ratings are concerned. Kinda like the news media these days.

That's true as we have found out later in the Couples Tell All, and the gossip rags that have info on the couples. But the personality some of the couples have, i believe that's really them. Nicole, Evelyn to mention a few. There is no way Jungle Boy could have been scripted that much, or the reactions of Mcd's Larry, the looks on his face and his actions. It's obvious he hadn't been out of small town America much. Apparently Darcey was drinking much more then what was portrayed on the show. I,  for one watch it for entertainment and enjoy giving opinions on the episodes, scripted or not.
