In tonights 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days episode,  Caleb and Alina are enjoying Turkey. They’re also enjoying each other. They finally slept together after thirteen years of friendship and sure it was a little tricky at first. Caleb had never slept with a little person before.

He needed time to grow accustom it. But Alina wants to discuss their future together. She and her friends have been trying to bring it up to Caleb and he keeps knocking down the idea. He doesn’t want to discuss the future. He doesn’t even want to discuss tomorrow. He just wants to focus on the fun part and that leaves Alina questioning if there could be a future for them as a couple.

Kim was pretty much doing the same because her vacation with Usman wasn’t going well. She flew to a foreign country to get to know him better and to have him finally call her his girlfriend and he and his people have been trying her patience. First they called her a superfan. She wasn’t just some fan. She was a woman that was important to Usman and she doesn’t need to explain that to the help.

His “friends” were hired by him to help with his music video. They were the help. The help shouldn’t be popping whenever they feel like it. It also didn’t help that Kim is truly trying with Usman and he wasn’t putting in the same effort. He was actually pretty dismissive when it came to her.

Then there was Memphis. Memphis’s body wasn’t reacting well to Tunisia. She was suffering from a funny tummy and she wasn’t afraid of using public restrooms like some people. She would just use whichever bathroom was closest. Memphis’s boyfriend and possible future husband was just getting to know her and so Memphis wasn’t shy in the slightest. She was a blunt person.

She told Hamza what she’s feeling when she’s feeling it and she later answered his questions about her childhood. They hadn’t discussed it before because Memphis’s past was hurtful for her. She said her mom is a drug addict and that most of her childhood her mom was abusing drugs and wasn’t there for her.

Things are different now. Memphis’s mother is doing better. She’s in her life and she’s in her grandchildren’s lives, but Memphis still doesn’t like to talk about that time and so it did hurt when she had to explain to Hamza. She had to tell him that her mother wasn’t like his mother. His mother supports him and has been a supportive figure in his whole life. Something Memphis didn’t have until after she was thirty when her mom got clean. By then, she already had children. Memphis probably should have told Hamza all of this before she even flew out to meet him because this was a huge part of her life and she would need him to understand what happens if her mother relapses and needs her.

Only as bad as withholding a past is for Memphis, it wasn’t as bad or as crazy as the Jasmine and Gino saga. Gino rushed into a relationship with a woman with many issues. She was extremely jealous to the point where she was unreasonable. She didn’t even want tip a waitress because she counted it as flirting and she went ballistic once she realized that Gino was still talking to his ex-wife.

She accused him of still sleeping with other woman. She also demanded a large Christmas gift because she didn’t like the electric toothbrush or how he only brought one gift for her instead one for the first time seeing her and the other for Christmas day. And so she lashed out demanding something better than a toothbrush and Gino had to walk away because her tantrum scared him.

Also, new couple alert. The show introduced Ben. He’s from Michigan and he’s both a model as well as a youth pastor. He’s fifty-two. He escaped a cult with his wife and kids and they tried to save the marriage only it didn’t work out. The marriage still ended. Ben is a nice guy. He doesn’t want to rush into anything again and he doesn’t believe in sex before marriage.

He was new to modeling and posting the photos on social media when a beautiful woman became a follower. He likes what he saw in the photo. He sent her an emoji for hi. She responded back and that’s how the relationship started. The woman’s name is Mahogany. She’s twenty-four. She’s from Peru and she was as deep in her faith as Ben was in his.

hey’ve been texting. Ben likes what he’s hearing and so he soon plans on flying down to Peru to meet with Mahogany. He told his friends about it. They were against the idea. They didn’t think a woman so young was ready for a serious relationship or to settle down. They also didn’t think Ben should be rushing into anything. He should take his time with this one. She could be scamming him. They’ve never had a proper conversation and Ben doesn’t really know Mahogany. He knows she agrees him about Jesus. She doesn’t want to sleep with anyone before marriage. He also knew that Mahogany is pretty young and that he was way too old to be this gullible about a woman he just met. And so his friends politely tried to warn him that caution is everything.

Memphis meanwhile was finding out that Hamza lied to her. he told her that he was twenty-eight. He’s twenty-six. His family told Memphis and it’s a good thing she found out before they went to the embassy to get a marriage license because Memphis would have given wrong info. Memphis was angry that Hamza lied about his age. The age difference didn’t really matter to her because it was the lying that has her concerned and it made her believe that Hamza was lying about others things too. Memphis stormed off after she found out about the lie. She hadn’t wanted to be around Hamza or his family. His family tried to say that Hamza was just bad at math but no one could be that bad at figuring out their age.

There was also Mike. Poor Mike who was being played by Ximena and everyone could see it. Ximena let this man talk about future children when she had her tubes cut. First, she said she had them tied. Later, she said she had them cut and burned. She said it was impossible for her to have any more children and that was important to Mike. Mike wants to help her raise her two boys but he also thought they could at least try for another child and now that’s off the table. Most men would need time to see if they want to be with a person after that. Not Mike. Mike still wants to be with Ximena. And so being supportive of her being done with children while she was holding back something else – knowing her, there had to be something else she’s keeping secret.

Small correction on one thing. Mahogany was in fact twenty-eight and not twenty-four. It was a difference albeit not much of one and the important things remain the same. Ben believes himself in love. He was in love with a younger woman once before. He was engaged to a woman who didn’t want him around his children too much and that relationship caused strain with his children. It also ended badly. His children therefore weren’t happy when they were told about Mahogany and they said that the pictures of her looked fake. Ben admitted it might have been retouched but he believes that Mahogany is real and his children suspect he was being catfished. And for those in the back, catfish is when someone pretends to be a completely different person online.

Remember Jenny and Sumit. Yeah, those two got together after he catfished her with photos of a completely different guy he found online and so sometimes catfishing works out. Sometimes it doesn’t. Ben’s kids didn’t think it was going to work out. To them, it didn’t matter if Mahogany was real or fake. The children didn’t think she had a future with their father. It doesn’t help that everyone in Ben’s life thought he was being scammed and so that one was going to be a wait and see. Memphis later came back to the house. She asked Hamza if he really did go to college. She had to see his diploma before she was willing to accept it and even then she still doesn’t trust him at his word. And so there might not be a future for them.

Mike also found out that Ximena was in actuality keeping one more secret from him. Her life had been threatened by an ex-boyfriend and the ex was a hitman. She told the police about the threats. They went to talk to the ex and Ximena hasn’t heard from him since. But something like that she should have mention at the start of their relationship. Like she’s putting Mike’s life in danger. He should have known this before flying out to Colombia.

Gino and Jasmine also talked and she said they should probably put a stop to discussing babies and her moving to the United States. She also confessed to having her tubes tied and Gino still wanted to stay.

THE END!
