“90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days” star Caleb and Alina broke up on Sunday’s episode on a sad note. While the couple was interacting nicely with each other over the internet, it seems in real life they couldn’t stay together for long.

“I feel like I’ve been very patient with Caleb so far,” Alina told cameras. “I’ve always heard this, ‘I need more time, not too soon,’ and I respected it. But now, it’s not gonna work — this excuse — anymore.”

Caleb also shared his side of the story:

“It’s not something I’m against,” he told the former “90 Day Fiance” star about being exclusive. “It’s just been a question for me of the right person. And I’ve been trying to assess that in you. I want to experience what life is like with you more. And I wish this wasn’t being put to the question right now, because I feel like this is being forced on me. But, if it’s a on-the-spot answer, then… It’s not that simple, Alina. If we could make this trip another week or two, I might be able to say yes. If you were in America with me, I could maybe say yes.”

“It’s out of respect for you that I’m taking my time,” he continued. “You have needs that need to be met. You need someone who can pay you attention and help you in those ways. I don’t want to take that lightly. So one big reason I’m taking time is to make sure I can be the person who can do that. I think you deserve someone who can do everything you need in terms of being your aide.”

Caleb explained Alina during the episode that he is “trying to get” what he wants but in a “proper way.”

“I am trying to get what I want, which is you, in the proper way,” he told her. “That’s why I’m saying give me more time. But, that isn’t apparently what can happen here, because you need to leave with an answer. And if that’s what you need, I respect that, but this is what I need. I need more time. And it hurts me. I feel like we have so much here that I wish you could wait.”

Alina told Caleb, “I think when a guy’s in love, he just goes and gets what he wants. I just can’t go back and everything is back to normal, how it was before. I can’t handle this. I think I stated it clearly — yes or no. … I don’t think you love me. You don’t love me. You’re not even in love with me.”

“I’m not asking Caleb to marry me, or to move to Russia immediately,” she told the cameras. “But, it kind of hurts that he doesn’t know by now. Does he want to be with me or not? I know I want be with him. And I just really feel played.”

“90 Day Fiance” star told Alina the next day after he slept on the couch that he doesn’t want to date a “little” person for rest of his life.

“I know when I say I need time it sounds flippant, like, I am putting you off as if I don’t care,” he told Alina. “The reason I need time is because this is all new to me. Like, I really like you, but I’m not used to dating little people. I told everyone it’d be no big deal that we were different, but the reality is there were challenges there for me. I’m a bachelor, I’m very independent. I’m used to doing me. So it scares me a little bit to imagine being with you long-term.”

Alina replied, “I don’t understand. When you love someone, it shouldn’t be so hard to help or whatever. It just becomes a part of your daily life, no?”

“I just don’t know if the life I want for myself is one of helping someone so much,” he said. “Because my life has been so different than that.”

“I understand it might be scary, but I’m kind of tired of that, of people being scared to be with me because I require, like, help or whatever,” she told him. “But this is the first reason, always. And I thought you were different.”

Caleb responded, “I thought I was, I didn’t think this would be a problem. But the reality is this is a struggle I’m facing. But I don’t know what to say beyond that.”

He then told cameras, “I deeply care about Alina, so it really tears me apart to see her like this. I wish she could see that I’ve been trying, that I put in all this effort. But at this point, I can’t commit to Alina.”

Alina told cameras, “I thought he would be more understanding and see past my disability because it’s been 13 years of us talking and building a great emotional connection. The worst thing is that I’m not just losing the potential man who I can spend my future with, but I’m also losing one of my best friends. I don’t know if we are gonna see each other again, and this is the most hurtful part. … I’m just sad that he couldn’t love me as I loved him and wanted him to love me.”

Celeb also looked upset as he opened up about his feelings for her following the split.

“I feel like Alina and I really came close together,” he said. “We shared our vulnerabilities, and we really came to understand each other on a deep level. So there’s a greater sense of loss right now going home that almost makes me wish I hadn’t opened up in the first place to risk being hurt. But at the same time, that’s the price you sometimes have to pay.”

“I’m worried that I got in my head too much and didn’t allow myself to appreciate what we had as much as I could’ve,” he continued. “And I feel like when I wake up tomorrow, I think I’ll really question if this was the right choice. I might realize that I was just afraid. I think it might haunt me for a while.”

Meanwhile, TLC discontinued filming with Alina after her racist remark.
