Dating someone from another country with a sketchy past can be challenging. My boyfriend, Sarper, has been with thousands of women, and there’s still a lot of slut-shaming, which I strongly oppose. It’s disappointing because I thought our culture was more accepting. This season on “90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way,” fans will see deeper aspects of our relationship, which is fun, serious, and sometimes comical. We’ve gotten to know each other better, and it’s like reliving everything again.
In the first episode, I revealed my plan for a new nose, designed by Sarper. After two rhinoplasties in Los Angeles, I wanted to go to a renowned surgeon in Turkey. Sarper had mixed feelings, initially opposing the idea but eventually supporting it with his vision. He believes he should have a say since he sees it every day, which I appreciate.
If Sarper wanted a procedure, I’d be hesitant. I love his rugged, imperfect look. Our friends were concerned about him taking control, especially regarding my appearance. However, Sarper has never suggested anything that made me feel worse; I trust his judgment.
Sarper’s past with numerous women and my trust issues from previous relationships make our match seem problematic. But Sarper, whose last name means trust, has been committed and loyal. Despite initial doubts, he has proven himself trustworthy, which draws me back to him. His willingness to change and adjust for our relationship gives me faith.
Fashion-wise, I love crop tops, though I have to dress modestly in Turkey. I’ve connected with other 90 Day stars, like Kenneth, Darcy, and Stacey, who have been supportive. Despite some negativity online, our relationship isn’t toxic. Sarper never makes me cry, and we have more smiles than frowns, which is essential.
Sarper’s sense of humor, goofiness, and efforts in our relationship make me feel like I’ve won the jackpot. He tries hard, and I respect him for how well he’s done in a committed relationship. Initially, negative fan reactions bothered him, but now he ignores the hate. We know our relationship’s true nature, and we’re happy.
This season of “90 Day Fiancé” can be described in three words: entertaining, unusual, and inspiring.
