Chris Bukowski and Elise Mosca's flame apparently burned out quickly.

The couple met and became smitten with one another on Bachelor in Paradise. After Bukowski, 27, tore ligaments in his knee and experienced terrible pain, he quit the show and asked Mosca, 27, to go home with him. She accepted without hesitation and felt they were starting out on their journey to find true love.

However, after dating for about one month, Bukowski broke up with Mosca, telling CupidsPulse, "We were at two very different points in our lives."

According to sources, producers flew the pair back to Mexico so they could update the cast members on their relationship, but when Bukowski made it clear he wasn't going to propose to Mosca, Bachelor in Paradise's crew reportedly decided not to film anything.

Mosca came on to Bukowski extremely strong on the show and did so after falling in love with fellow bachelor Dylan Petitt just one week prior. Mosca gave Bukowski her rose only after Petitt rejected it and got eliminated from Bachelor in Paradise as a result. Fans have since poked fun at Mosca for being very intense.

"It's tough for me to hear people say she's crazy when she's only crazy about falling in love!" Bukowski told the website.

Bukowski and Mosca's choice to leave paradise together allowed bachelorette Michelle Money to stay. Bukowski gave his rose to Money and told her she deserved to find love more than anyone.

"She deserves someone to share her life with... I wanted to give her the opportunity to find someone amazing for herself," he said.

As to whether he's still looking for love, Bukowski added, "All we need is love, and love is actually all around."
