Before the 90 Days: Long-Distance Couples Say Goodbye — with 1 Unrequited ‘I Love You’ and a Surprise Proposal

Jasmine and Gino’s relationship was saved by one sentimental ring, while Amanda asked Razvan if she can expect some bling of her own before returning to America

Everyone’s 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days favorites (or least favorites) are starting to say their goodbyes as the Americans head home.

This season, relationships have flourished and crumbled under the pressure of long-distance love — and with that came surprises of each partner’s true characteristics once the virtual experience was exchanged for in-person interactions.

Some couples found their stride in physical relationship, while others started to question “red flags” spotted in each other’s behaviors.

Sunday night’s episode showed one fateful proposal, and another goodbye with an unspoken “I love you” — leaving questions about what happens when distance, yet again, runs the relationship. Here’s where the episode left each storyline.

Gino and Jasmine

90 Day's Jasmine Tells Gino She Still Has Her Ex on the Brain: 'If Our Sex Was Better, I'd Fantasize About Us

Last week’s episode showed the “final” breakup between Jasmine and Gino, as they just couldn’t find the same page. To Jasmine, the most important thing was being a priority over Gino’s family — though he admitted she wasn’t. The emotional breakup came when the pair decided they couldn’t find a way through their different needs.

This week, though, Jasmine took matters into her own hands. She couldn’t lose Gino, so she proposed to her ex-fiancé with the same ring he once gave her (yes, the one she said she lost because she wanted a bigger one.)

“I’m gonna earn it,” she said of her status with Gino. “Because I want to be your wife.”

Gino was honored by the profession of love, and the inclusion of her original engagement ring. This was enough to send the couple back into a whirlwind of love, and declarations to be together forever.

“I’m sorry for being a bitch and wanted you to upgrade this ring,” Jasmine said. “But you know what? Like, in my eyes and for me, this ring is priceless and not even all the money in the world can buy it because this is from the love of my life.”

Gino still had to head back to America, as his visit to Panama had concluded. But he left with the promise to bring Jasmine — his fiancée — to America as soon as possible.

Amanda and Razvan

After weeks of arguments, Amanda and Razvan seemed to find their footing again. The couple’s sex life was the best it’s ever been, as Razvan admitted it was a way they channeled their anger.

The couple spent their week in Croatia with Razvan’s family, who expressed concerns about Amanda’s readiness for love. Razvan’s mother told cameras she held a skeptical opinion as she was unsure how the grief Amanda feels for her late husband would impact her current love.

“This is not what I was hoping for, Razvan,” his mother said, translated to English. “I didn’t know she was this kind of changing woman. She’s sad, upset, because of the loss. That’s normal. But she can try and think of him, too. I’m not sure that the cause of Amanda’s behavior is the death of her husband, or she is just a fickle person.”

Later in the episode, Amanda started thinking about returning home. She didn’t want to go without commitment, though, and asked Razvan if an engagement was in their future. This shocked him since they’ve spent the last few weeks in brutal arguments (one so bad, it nearly caused a breakup.)

“I would feel better about our relationship and like, more secure if I knew you were willing to commit more,” she said.

But Razvan still couldn’t get over the hurdles. “After so many things, you think I just need to forget everything?” he asked. “They’re still here in my soul and in my mind.”

To cameras, he added, “I’m shocked that Amanda is talking about being engaged. How can you want to be engaged with someone when we only have fights?”
