In episode 10, titled, The Text From an Ex, Tim's parents drove to Washington D.C. to spend time with the couple. Tim's parents accepted Alex and told Tim that they would be at the wedding. Later in the episode, it was revealed that Tim was upset with Alex for how she behaved when his parents were visiting.
Tim told Alex that while he understood she was sleepy, it felt like she decided to sleep as soon as the cameras stopped filming. He said it wasn't okay. Alex said she was tired but would have stayed up if she knew it meant that much to him. The two discussed being unable to communicate effectively and Tim told her he didn't see himself marrying her.

"Tim is an egotistical maniac, and he’s been looking for any excuse to dump Alex, big coward"
"Tim could not WAIT to leave Alex in the dust. That argument they never showed us must have been AWFUL," a fan commented.
"Tim is soo heartless omg!!!! He reminds me of a narcissist i know. Gosh Alex deserves all the love in this world," a tweet read.
Fans of Love is Blind season felt the cast member was being "immature":
"If I'm Alex, after what Tim just said I'm not wasting my energy on this man. He's not a bad dude but he's being immature af right now. He's the type to hold it all in, get mad, then punish you for it without communicating after making his mind up. Therapy pls!," a person wrote.
"Tim ain’t liked Alex since whatever argument they had in Mexico and he needs to admit that instead of whatever all this other stuff is because he looks cruel, immature, and tbh the tone and eyes look a lil ridiculous," a fan commented.
"Tim clearly came into that conversation with an intention to belittle, humble, and embarrass Alex. His unwillingness to accept any accountability was telling but Alex held her composure well," a tweet read.
Fans of Love is Blind season 7 further said:
"Tim is giving me severe PTSD omg. Alex is better off honestly. That man is nowhere near ready for any relationship let alone a marriage," a person wrote.
"So Tim only wants literal perfection and doesn’t accept any flaws from anyone. Pathetic. Alex, dodge that crazy bullet girl," a fan commented.
