There seems to be only one thing keeping Sarper and Shekinah’s relationship intact.

After a massive fight left Sarper threatening to leave Shekinah and move back to Turkey, the pair took some time apart. On the May 11 episode of 90 Day Fiancé, three days passed and things still weren’t resolved, so Sarper decided to try a different tactic to push Shekinah’s “reset button.”

“After our last conversation in the house, we didn't get along,” he explained. “But then something happened in the middle of the night. I couldn't think with this head, another head. I just sneaked to the upstairs like a tiger. When we woke up the next morning, everything was a little more smooth.”

Shekinah then admitted, “I guess sex is the glue that holds us together.”

Calling it his “animal instinct,” Sarper echoed her sentiment, saying that “sex is a trigger to change everything.”

Still, Shekinah reminded him that even though they were getting along again, they needed to discuss the issues that led to their near-breakup.

“We have things we need to work on — communication, we need trust,” she noted. “Just because we had sex doesn't mean everything's forgiven and everything's okay.”

“I know that, [but] that physical connection, that chemistry between us, just helps everything to calm down at least,” Sarper replied. “Maybe we can think more…”

“Rationally,” Shekinah completed the sentence in agreement.
