Mahdi’s Irrational Obsession with Stevi’s Sexuality Raises Red Flags

90 Day Fiancé star Stevi Savage has a passion for painting, particularly focusing on the female form. Since moving to America, her fiancé, Mahdi Al-Saadi, has become increasingly curious about her artistic choices, which include a series of portraits featuring women’s breasts. His persistent questioning has led to speculation about Stevi’s sexual orientation, and while Mahdi’s interest stems from a place of concern, his approach often comes off as intrusive. As newcomers in Season 11, I initially believed in the potential of their relationship, especially given Mahdi’s charming and genuine demeanor.

Mahdi has shown an open-minded attitude towards American culture and has embraced the vast differences he’s encountered, which is refreshing compared to many couples in the franchise. Yet, one significant hurdle has arisen: Mahdi’s discomfort with Stevi’s sexuality. Upon seeing her art, he began to question his place in her life and her true feelings. While a single inquiry about her preferences might be acceptable, Mahdi’s incessant probing has crossed a line, making the situation increasingly uncomfortable for both of them.

Mahdi’s Persistent Interrogation About Stevi’s Art and Sexuality

After encountering the numerous paintings featuring breasts, Mahdi’s reaction was intense and immediate. It seems he was unaware of the full extent of Stevi’s artistic expression until he saw how prominently it was displayed in her home. His questions quickly became relentless, and he appeared unsatisfied with any response she provided. Each revelation, including the fact that Stevi has painted her friend in the nude, only intensified Mahdi’s suspicion of her potential bisexuality. His behavior is increasingly concerning, as it straddles the line of being overly invasive and unsettling.

Despite Stevi’s reassurances that she is not attracted to women, Mahdi remains unconvinced. He further complicates the situation by expressing that he finds it unfair for Stevi to engage in activities that he feels are off-limits to him. This leads me to wonder about the nature of his discomfort. Is his real issue that he wishes he could explore similar experiences? If Stevi were to hide her true feelings, it would likely be out of fear of his reaction, which has become increasingly apparent and justifiable.

Stevi’s Firm Stand on Her Sexuality: A Non-Issue

Stevi makes a compelling argument, asserting that her sexuality is not a concern. At the heart of the matter is her commitment to Mahdi, indicating that her romantic preference is specifically directed towards him. If she has chosen to bring Mahdi to America with the intention of marriage, he should take comfort in her decision. While I empathize with Mahdi’s feelings, which mirror the struggles faced by other couples like Rob Warne and Sophie Sierra, it’s essential to recognize that Stevi exudes confidence in her choices, unlike Sophie, who openly expressed her uncertainties regarding her desires.

Despite Mahdi’s worries, Stevi reassures him that he is a more open-minded Muslim, yet his relentless questioning raises significant concerns about their ability to navigate future challenges together. The fact that he cannot let go of his obsession with her sexual orientation signals deeper issues that could affect their relationship. Stevi’s frustration is palpable, as it becomes apparent that no matter how often she denies any attraction to women, Mahdi’s doubts persist.

Ultimately, I remain optimistic about their future as a couple. Compared to other duos in the 90 Day Fiancé series, Stevi and Mahdi share a genuine bond that seems rooted in love and a willingness to grow together. Nevertheless, Mahdi must address his insecurities promptly to facilitate a healthy relationship. While I understand cultural differences may play a role in his concerns, if they maintain a monogamous commitment, I struggle to grasp the source of his anxiety. My hope is that Mahdi can overcome his doubts so they can successfully advance toward their wedding day.
