"The Bachelorette" thread

[BlueSki231]

i was SOOOOOO disappointed she kept dave. ugh SERIOUSLY?!? judging from the preview of the next show he may not be around much longer.

ed''s still my fave!! he sticks out to me most for some reason.

jake is alright i guess. he seems like your typical southern boy. not really my thing, but maybe it''s jillians

and foot fetish guy needs TO GO!! i had a traumatizing experience in college where some random weirdo tried to rub my feet "for good luck" at a shoe store .
so tanner''s obsession is REALLY creeping me out... it''s like that''s all he can focus on!!

 

[whitby_2773]

hi mausketeer

yes, i did watch it - and i thought she''d pick ryan. thought he was kinda ''wet'' - but probably a good choice for her. she seems like a VERY strong willed young lady to me and i dont think she would have been able to rule the roost with the other guy like i think she probably does with ryan.

what sort of people would volunteer to do a show like this?? you have to wonder, dont you?!

I KNEW Tanner wanted to put her feet in and around his mouth. UGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

FREAK!! I think she''s is keeping him around because she secretly LOVES that he is obsessed with her. She giggles everytime he makes a disgusting motion to lick her toes. She actually likes it.


This show is all over weird. Too much kissing. Too many guys missing clothing. TOO MANY EGOS.


Ohh, and I think that Juan might be gay. Did any one catch when he was talkign with her, and he noticed that he was flapping his wrist all over the place, and then made a joke about, ''Ohh, I don''t know why I was doing that!''


ETA: I still think that she is way to focused on sexual/physical attraction. It is literally the first thing out of her mouth whenever she is explaining, to the camera, why she likes someone.

I think that physical attraction is what draws you to someone, but I don''t feel like any of her conversations with these guys are very deep. I was suprised that after an entire day with Sasha, when they were headed to dinner, she made a comment about finally getting to ask him some serious questions and ''really talk''. What the heck have you been talking about all day?? I don''t get it.

Totally saw that! My friend dated someone that reminds me exactly of Juan and he was super-duper shady. I like Ed. Does nobody like him but me?

no you''re not the only one!! i think i may have kind of a crush on ed

i dunno why everyone''s up in juan''s business. he doesn''t bother me that much. he''s just not a "manly man".. and he may try a little hard and i think that''s why he comes off as a bit awkward. i think he''s got a big case of the "mamma''s boy" syndrome, but i wouldn''t call him shady.. and i wouldn''t say he''s there for the "wrong reasons" like dave seems to be so convinced of.

haha, okay you may be right. Maybe I''m being too harsh on Juan. Glad you also like Ed. He seems very mellow which I like.

i liked that nice blonde guy she sent home last week - not brad - the other one who she barely had any time with. he seemed nice and genuine, too.

i dont find her that attractive, i find her a bit dumb, and her voice irritating. i liked her MUCH more in ''the bachelor''. now she just seems like a bit of an air head who kisses everyone and is looking for a hot guy. and i think sending home a guy (sasha) because he''s looking for the perfect woman is insane - i mean - what''s SHE looking for? Mr Near-Enough??

i love jake - i just hope he doesnt end up with her; waste of a good guy. i suspect she''ll pick kypton - and i think he''d suit her pretty well.

but one thing we know for sure; no matter who she picks, it won''t work out, so why bother, really...

Aw, now, come on--doesn''t everyone deserve to find someone, no matter what they look like? DH said the same thing, but you can''t help what you look like.
(I think she''s cute, anyway. DH doesn''t, and he''s with you on her voice, too.)

Whitby--I''ve been meaning to ask, what on Earth does your signature line mean????

Whitby--I''ve been meaning to ask, what on Earth does your signature line mean????

hi haven

my comment about her looks has NOTHING to do with her deserving love (not yelling - just want to be reeeeeeally clear!) and i''m sure 99.9% of the male population would find her staggeringly more attractive than me - and more power to her. however...

i just dont find her a huge catch on any level, really, which is what i was trying to say. so i''m completely suspicious of why 30 men would be expected, to a man, to fall for this one non-exceptional woman. i just dont see anything that would make me, if i were a guy go - wow! and i think she''s pleasant looking - and she has a lovely figure - but that''s a long way from beautiful, in my book.

i''ve known some very plain looking women who were, in my opinion, phenomenal catches because of their character, their abilities, their standards and ethics. but she just seems like an air head to me, and i''m not into a girl who kisses so many guys, regardless of what the show producers tell her to do. failing a sparkling personality, i guess i was thinking - ''well, is she a beauty at least?'' and in my opinon, no - definitely not. pleasant, but nothing stunning.

my signature line came from maisie''s son, james, who was laying next to her one evening while she was on PS. her son said - "oh look - it''s a cake. oh - no - wait - it''s a lady being attacked by a dog."

that just seemed so random to me, but it clearly made perfect sense to him on some level, so i decided to adopt it for my signature line. (doncha just love kids?!)

 

[Haven]

Whitby--Ha! about your sig line, that''s really funny . . . and sweet, in a way that I can''t really articulate.

AND, I totally understand what you meant by mentioning her looks, now. Thank you for clarifying! I didn''t mean to sound confrontational, it was more of a tender moment where I felt the need to stick up for all of us plain-looking girls in the world. (Though, Jillian is not really a plain-looking girl if you ask me.) We deserve love, too!

Anyway, isn''t the show on again tonight? I''m excited! Let''s hope it''s more exciting than last week.

 

[bebe]

I''m watching now. She''s with David (contractor dude)
Foul mouthed and arrogant

She says she feels disrespected by him.
She kinda turned his kisses down, turned her cheek to him.
He said "Game On". Player and User, uck.

 

[beau13]

I yawned my way through most of the 2 hours! Why can''t they make this season a little more exciting? I''m glad Jilly sent David & Juan home!
Can''t believe Tanner (foot freak) is still there though! I wish they''d just skip to the finale already!

 

[Rock_of_Love]

So what is up?? Who has the girlfriend?? It seems like they were insinuating that it is Wes. I still don''t like him...too cheesy. And, I agree with what the guys say about how he is a player. I could totally see that.

Yeah, pretty lame she kept foot guy, but maybe she did because he was the one telling her about some guys not being here for right reasons, and maybe she will use him as her spy to get info.

I thought the one rose, two guys date kinda sucked. It was clear that one guy was really into her, and the other guy barely said a word...then pretty much said that he got cheated on before, so seemed kinda "still hurt, not ready." And, she kept him!!

Anyway...overall another YAWN episode.

 

[Dreamgirl]

I think it''s Wes who has the girlfriend. I don''t know what she sees in him. I think he looks like a grease-ball to me.

Glad she got rid of Juan and David. It''s about time!

So are they done in L.A.? Because that''s the first time they have ever gone to the "Bachelorette''s" hometown so early. I know it wasn''t to meet family. But they were IN her hometown however. And Chris said they wouldn''t be going back to that mansion...

The girls and I were trying to figure out which guys girlfriend would benefit from him going on the show, and the benefit would be so big that they wouldn''t care if he was amking out with another girl. The only one we could come up with, would have been Wes. If he plays his songs and gets a record deal... they both win, BIG.

We couldn''t come up with any others, where the girlfriend would benefit quite as much.

 

[Dreamgirl]

Good point! But still, what an awful thing to do. It almost ALSO makes me wonder if the producers knew about this and figured it would make for good tv...

 

[steph72276]

I am so glad she got rid of David and Juan. I mean, how rude was David? I think he has to have a drinking problem....I mean, why would anyone say those things to someone they are trying to impress unless they were totally out of their mind? Love how he didn''t get the clue when she turned down his kisses! What a tool

. I still like Jake and Kiptin is starting to grow on me. Also, I think Reid is really sweet and pretty cute, so maybe they will show more of him next week. Wes has to go, he is a snake and I hope she sees through him!

 

[whitby_2773]

for some reason, i''m guessing the guy with the girlfriend is jake.

dont even ask me - just a gut feeling....

Really??? he seems so intent on making sure he is a honest and stand-up kind of guy.
Ha, maybe that''s why we should question his actions!!

I thought it was Wes. He just seems to want everyone to hear his music.
And Tanner - poor guy. He was sweating being sent home!!

 

[Haven]

I bet none of them have girlfriends, though I wouldn''t be surprised if Wes had one or two back home. He seems the type.

I still like Jake, but I''m actually thinking he''s too good for her. He''s a stand up guy, he seems interesting and dynamic, and she''s pretty bland.

Somebody already stated she had inside info about Jake, and the girlfriend issue...

"I know for sure that Jake has one..whether he will confirm that or not is a different story."
Oh yes..it was MOI!

i dont know, bebe -i reeeeeeeeally liked him up till now, but last night he just seemed too good to be true - as tho he was trying too hard. a few times he seemed to be giving sideways glances - as tho he was trying to assess what other people thought of what he was saying. something about him just seemed too polished and kinda....sneaky, i guess. and when he was challenging whoever had the girlfriend to step up, it just seemed...forced to me, i think - not entirely sincere.

anyway, time will tell.

(and i am NOT fond of wes and tanner!!)

beau - nothing personal here, but every time there''s a reality elimination show on tv, boards are always FULL of people who ''have the inside scoop''. so until you spill your source, we''re just gonna have to wait and see how right you are. but for now, i happen to agree with you, but for reasons of my own.

it would be a shame if jake went home tho - he''s SO cute!

this is gonna be fun to watch! Who knows who the heck it is. Did someone tell Tanner one of the guys had a GF?
Or did Tanner just kinda assume that?
Wes creeps me out.
Tanner reminds me of a lanky teenage boy trying to get the attention of the high school homecoming queen!!

Tanner said , that Wes had mentioned ,he had someone back home that he used to date, and still had feelings for.

 

[Rock_of_Love]

What is up with Jake?? Come on, Beau...spill the beans!!!

 

[mausketeer]

Finally some time to come one here today!!....... okay guys, when Dave was talking to Gillian (god, more like HARRASSING her, with that horrible comment about how her "t*ts" were falling out of her dress and like, bugging her about how she was "kissing everyone ELSE - what about ME?") and then he leaned in and PULLED HER TOP UP?!?!?! Oh my god I almost choked! If that was real life and that was me in her place, I would have HIT his hand away - just instinctively! That was so bad. What a total and complete jerk! And what''s with Tanner P. telling her about one of the guys having a girlfriend and then standing there like a total little wus and not saying ANYTHING when the time came to come clean? I thought that was terrible. Own up to it man! TELL her who said it to him! Why not? If you can snitch on someone behind their backs like that, you can say it to them in front of their face. Well, obviously not in his case...... that was pathetic......

Oh, and I agree about the whole premise of the show Whitby. Not about how she LOOKS or even about whether or not she''s a catch but just, in general, WHY are 20 guys (or how many now, 8?) falling all over themselves for some woman anyways? If this was in a CLUB for example, she would be sitting on a stool and the guys would (or would not) be talking to her for a few minutes and that would be it. Maybe out of the 20 of them, 2 or 3 would ask for her number? One of them might call her? ESPECIALLY in Vancouver! LOL. That''s what I find so funny about all of this. Dating in Vancouver SUCKS! Nobody ever asks you out!

 

[beau13]

Okay ladies, who will break Miss Jillian''s heart tonight..will it be Jake or Wes? Any guesses? My guess is Wes..I think she may send him packing tonight! Hopefully this week''s episode brings a little more exicitement to the table!

 

[steph72276]

I think Wes will go tonight. He needs to. It is so obvious he is only there to promote his song. Hopefully foot guy will be headed out the door along with him!

 

[Burk]

So we have tornadoes touching down in the area so instead of the Bachelorette all I see is tornado updates....and when did this start...right when Ed was about to say his piece. Someone fill me in on what I missed please!

 

[kindred]

Ed''s boss was threatening to fire him if he did not get back to work, so Ed left. My thought is that these shows so rarely work out and that she and Ed might have a better chance of making it after the show ends and she has inevitably broken up with whomever she chooses, but maybe I''m just too cynical.

For me, the most shocking thing about tonight''s show was the preview for next week where they apparently tell the entire world that one of the men had ''performance'' issues in the fantasy suite!

 

[BlueSki231]

noooooooooooooooooooo ED!!!!!! he was my favorite! too bad his work got in the way
