'90 Day Fiancé': Geoffrey and Varya's awkward first meeting has fans predicting that the couple won't last
Geoffrey Paschel had been eagerly waiting to meet the love of his life, Varya. The two met online and after talking for several months, Geoffrey decided it was finally time to go meet Varya, who stayed in the US. Even though he had hoped that the two would share a connection instantly, things did not go as planned.
The two struggled to find common ground or a topic for a conversation and there was an awkwardness that hung in the air throughout their meeting. Geoffrey confessed to the camera that he had not expected things to be so bad because when they spoke on the phone, things were better.
Varya also accepted that the awkwardness was making her question the relationship. Despite this, Geoffrey hoped that things would be fine once they sat together and spent some time with each other. To make things worse, Varya revealed that she wouldn't be staying with him as her friends suggested it would be better for her to stay with them.
This left him disappointed, but he made it clear that he would not overstep any boundaries and let Varya be comfortable. While the two struggled to make their romance and chemistry visible, fans were also finding it hard to understand their relationship. Many thought that this awkwardness was a sign that the two would not last.
"Yeah... Varya and Geoffrey are not going to work out. This is painful," read one comment after watching them interact. "Geoffrey has three kids and a few failed marriages under his belt. the “love of his life” is Varya from Russia. He is already giving me “it’s not gonna work out” vibes," another wrote.
Meanwhile, some thought that Geoffrey had to be blamed for the awkwardness between them. Viewers thought that he was not putting in the effort to make the relationship work. While their first day did not start off as they had expected, we wonder if things will get better for them.
'90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days' airs on Sundays at 8 pm ET on TLC.
