The Bachelor, 2018

Even if Krystal is apologetic which she may be, it's easier to do when you're away from the situation and are more objective about things.  You know how Krystal can come off as very pleasant and acquiescent at times, but of course they are going to want drama on the show.  Yes, Ashley had issues.

They just gave away on ABC before The Bachelor aired who isn't getting a rose tonight.  I don't know why they would do that unless it's a joke.  She is supposed to be on GMA tomorrow.  What is wrong with them?

More than one person is going home tonight.  I didn't see the reveal of GMA so not sure why only 1 girl was mentioned.

I did not see that coming with Lauren.  I was surprised he gave her a rose and shocked he said he loved her.  There must be a whole lot more to their dates and conversations than what we have been shown.  Damn editing!

I was glad Kendall got a rose.  It was so obvious that she would get the first rose and the second one would be between Tia and Bekah.  Oh the drama.

It didn't seem to be Bekah's day.  She did not look cute like she has before.  I thought she didn't even have makeup on until she cried and her mascara ran. (Kimmel made fun of her crying saying she cried black tears) Maybe it was just the close-ups.  It also seemed like she was performing when she cried and it wasn't real just a manipulation.

I think Becca and Lauren will be Arie's F1&2.  I was stunned when Arie told
Lauren that he loved her.  Hate to see this lovely and fragile young woman
get hurt.

Tuscany was breathtakingly beautiful and a gastronomic delight.  Kudos to
the TPTB!

Bekah M. will be a big hit on BIP(with or without make-up)!

Bekah was the only one they revealed wouldn't get the rose on The Bachelor before it aired tonight.  I don't know why they did that.

The only one I like is Kendall with Tia second even though there's something about her that I don't trust.  Tuscany was beautiful.

I agree.  I am no longer sure who will be f1  Lauren really surprised me.  He said at the beginning of the date with Becca he wasn't really sure about things with her.  I think I heard he told 2 women he loved them.  We know who 1 is but not #2. hmmmm  

This is the point of the show where I can't handle the not knowing.  I am so tempted to read spoilers.

The spoilers are interesting to say the least.

I dont get the Bekah love ... I was more than ready to see her go at this point.  To me it seemed like she was over-acting all the time with her exaggerated faces over any little drama : a clear sign of immaturity. 

I was also surprised at Arie's declaration of love for Lauren.  She's a lovely girl but i dont see much personality there so is it just a physical magnetism he feels for her? Or its the editing...

I wasnt shocked that Jacqueline left except I didnt understand all the crying.  I figured he would pick Tia until she complained about Bekah which is usually the harbinger of doom.  And I'm so glad he chose Kendall - I think she's my favorite now over Becca.

What prompted Tia to start ragging on Bekkah?  Geez, she came off as bitter and jealous.  I liked her until then, beyotch.

My guess is that Arie likes Lauren Physically, not emotionally.

I don't get it about Lauren either.  She is attractive but not that attractive and I'm not that crazy about her personality.  They spent too much time on Jacqueline.

I knew there was something that bothered me about Tia, though I like her better than Becca or Lauren.  I just don't like her for Arie.

It seems it is a mystery to everyone why Lauren is still there.  It must be editing.  All we saw of her was sour expressions and whining about being afraid of getting hurt.   It never fails, someone is afraid of getting their heart broken, or they just can't declare love so fast, they aren't used to speed dating, it's so hard seeing him with other women, blah blah blah.  Yet they sign up for this show any ways.  What do they expect?

I thought for sure Arie was sending her home, especially after she said she was falling in love.  How many times have we seen someone finally declare their love only to get sent home?  I don't get why Arie left her sitting there alone.  WTH was he doing?  It sure looked like he was about to tell her goodbye but lost his nerve.

We still have an ex-boyfriend coming to get his woman back.  My bet is it's Tia????

So far I am resisting spoilers, but previous comments sure make it tempting.    Can't believe I haven't seen something already.

Probably shows everybody what a jerk Ari really is. He is not looking for a real commitment, just still a player.

I love the Winter Games so far.  Particularly enjoyed the Opening Ceremonies with
the Parade of Nations.  The international cast is a lot of fun. Can do without
Ashley I. though.

I really hate that spoilers are even out there. Since I haven't accidentally seen any spoilers yet I'll try to stick this one out just for the heck of it.  Usually I accidentally hear something by now so then I can read the spoilers and find out the inside stuff.  I guess I can always read that stuff after.  Interesting that it is so confusing.  Maybe HTDs will give us clarity.  not

Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for it tonight 'cause I fast forwarded through most of it, especially Clare.  yuk  Can't believe she is there.

I like the concept but there was so much filler I was bored to death and had to fast forward too.  I also have no stomach for Claire and the previews of her makes me not want to watch - and its on 2 nights a week !  I'm not sure if I'll stay tuned...
