Summary

• Partners on 90 Day Fiancé struggle with communication issues, resorting to silence or oversharing with little success.

Couples on this season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way are realizing love isn't the only thing that will keep their relationships afloat across the globe.

In the most recent episode of the reality show, these partners showcase their lack of communication skills. Some of them stay silent and hope things will work out, while others say every thought that comes to mind. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear any of these tactics are helping.

Corona Gets An Ice-Cold Kiss In Iceland

This is a story all about how Corona's life got flipped-turned upside down.

The Pennsylvania woman left U.S. soil and landed on the chilly island to receive the least romantic "welcome home" kiss of the season. Her boyfriend, Ingi, greeted her with a quick peck that was just as uncomfortable for us to watch as it probably was for him to do.

What I expected was a big romantic gesture and what I got was kind of like, how I reckon, he probably kisses his grandma. Lame. You haven't seen me in so long, like, come on fool!

Ingi was awkward the entire car ride to his home too, but it's not clear if he's just nervous, doesn't know what to do around women or doesn't like her. One thing we know is that it'll be a long time until this Icelandic man will warm up to the idea of a proposal.

Corona notices he is being weird, so she made it more cringey by telling him "I'm looking forward to being with my person" and he said absolutely nothing back.

I'm not appreciating his vibe.

Corona gave up her career and a spot on a midwifery program to be with him, but he's admitted to the cameras that he's only taking their romance day by day.

He didn't make a lot of room for her in his apartment, but at least he sort of organized, unlike Sarper's gross living situation on display when Shekinah arrived in Turkey.

Corona got frustrated when Ingi didn't carve out a closet space for her outfits but when viewers watch her start to unpack her bolted, leather boots, they surely realize that maybe Ingi was on to something by not creating space for that unfashionable collection of what looks like Hot Topic footwear.

Corona keeps patting herself on the back for "soft partnering" him during disagreements as opposed to popping off, which would have happened in the closet incident.

Shekinah Meets With Sarper's Ex After He Opens Up About Weight Issues

Speaking of showcasing the softer side of love, Sarper opened up about his childhood including getting bullied as a "chubby" child and being cheated on by his first girlfriend.

Sarper revealed in high school he weighed more than 260 pounds as a teenager.

It's not baby fat babe, it was really fat. I was eating like [a] maniac.

Moments after Sarper let his guard down, Shekinah said women from his past were reaching out to her on social media and she's going to meet with one of them.

Ever since Sarper posted a picture of us on social media, women have been reaching out to me to tell me that he is manipulative, that he is a liar, [a] cheater and the list goes on.

He tried to talk her out of meeting with his ex but she refused to back down.

The ex warned Shekinah that Sarper is a liar who leads women on and then vanishes. The couple has a history of fighting over his former romps (and artifacts).

Sarper has so many red flags but Shekinah refuses to walk away so we'll see if this chat with his ex-fling will do anything.

James and Meitalia Reunite In Indonesia

Watching these two reunite is one of the rare times when they're not fighting with each other. It was cute until fans realize the couple hasn't told her family that they're moving to Indonesia and will be living with them.

As viewers know, James quit his family business last minute to move to Indoneisa with his wife, Meitalia, but only her sister knows that this is a move not a visit.

We even have to watch as her mom cry because she thinks this is just a temporary trip. What is holding this couple back from telling loved ones the truth? Also, when will James be honest with his wife and admit that he doesn't want kids?

At least James finally decided to shave that spotty beard off.

Josh and Lily Disagree Over Who Wanted Second Wedding

Josh doubles down on how it wasn't his idea to have a traditional Chinese wedding. He and his wife, Lily, both accuse the other person of wanting the ceremony.

Josh told Lily she didn't have to spend so much money on their wedding while they were at what appears to be a luxury spa getting their heads massaged and ears cleaned. Who paid for this date? I bet it's not the former HVAC sales representative who isn't legally allowed to work in China for five years.

They have to use a language translation app to have this discussion because they are clearly not on the same page.

New episodes of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way air on Mondays at 8pm ET on TLC, Max and Discovery+.
