I shouldn’t have to tell [him] I want ten minutes of alone time. There’s an engagement at the end of this. I shouldn’t have to ask or tell anyone that. I think he’s forgetting this isn’t a bro vacation. I didn’t think he would react the way he did. He wasn’t listening or understanding.”
The back and forth made Genevieve question where she stood with Aaron. “I came here, I opened up, I did everything I could’ve done,” she ranted. “But my gut is telling me that we are not meant or each other and there’s nothing left for me to do to make this relationship work.” She told Victoria Fuller that she was planning on leaving, and although Victoria tried to talk her down, Genevieve’s mind was made up.

Luckily, Aaron was on the same page. “That’s a big thing and it’s scary,” he admitted. “There’s a lot of really deep feelings I have that are hard to express. You’ve become so close to me and the things you do can deeply hurt me because of how much you mean to me. I’m falling in love with you, too. I don’t want you to leave. It’d be better if you stayed.” In the end, Genevieve did decide to stay, and all was well…for now.
