I'm wondering if this is fake drama, the way it was with Austin and Jessica. They did great the whole season but argued towards the end of the experiment, so to speak, about Austin having to travel for work. They still decided to stay married and are still married.

I think Henry is probably scared of ChristinA at this point. He'll probably spend their last night together sleeping with one eye open.

Henry reminds me of a duck---calm on top and frantically paddling underneath. I love Amelia's hair that length.

Miles made his great speech and Karen to me looked like she was seconds away from having her eyes glaze over and cross.

ChristinA saying she's not going to be shitty anymore is ChristinA lying again.

Love the expressions ChristinA's friend makes when she talks about not being needy and not being a liar.

You can be a very smart doctor and still consult a tarot card reader for fun, as they seemed to be doing; the two things don't have to be mutually exclusive.

All he lacks is a hat with a feather in it.

The grilling continues! Pack it up, boys, if you can't take the heat!

All these guys are missing are torches and pitchforks.

As my grandma would say---that's just nasty.

If I were these guys, I would nope out of this season. Clare is wayyy too addicted to drama.

Can't she relax for even a minute? I'm exhausted already just listening to her.

LOVE her earrings--when she and the guys were toasting

I would love to have Amelia as a doctor. I think her non-judgmental and easygoing attitude would be a great asset as a doctor. For me, feeling comfortable with my doctors, especially the GP that I see several times a year, is key to maintaining a satisfactory doctor-patient relationship. My niece is a medical doctor and I've always said that, if I didn't know she was a doctor, I wouldn't be able to tell, for all the best reasons.

I disagree. I agree that Miles was upset, had a reason to be and a right to express it. The world is kind of a horrible place right now, for many reasons. IMO, the participants were respectful to Miles and one expressed empathy. And we don't know what was said that wasn't shown so there may have been more of a discussion To call the participants (excluding Miles) immature, sheltered, clueless, etc; , labeling the empathy shown as disingenuous etc and stating that "none of them really wanted to be forced into facing the reality that their little TV show "bubble" was protecting them from" and also stating "while usually I might agree with you that such a getaway is supposed to be about escaping reality, they're ALREADY escaped reality" seems a little harsh and judgmental. I think they're all doing the best they can on this front.

JapMo, that was fascinating! Thank you for sharing! I love hearing people's stories. Everybody, tell your stories. And sorry for your loss. And to keep it on point, Miles, dump her. You sought treatment for depression prior to going on the show; this should be a fun time and not a situation that piles on more unhappiness. There's a woman out there, maybe watching the show, maybe not, who is waiting for a guy like you. Go out and find her.

Yes, I think it was Byron Velvick who was the oldest bachelor. (Had to look that up.) One of the guys told Clare he was blinded by her beautiful dress. I was blinded by her ta-tas. Were they always that big? They seemed right huge to me.

Oh, I didn't realize how much I missed everyone till I started reading the comments! (Does that make me sound pathetic? If so, I'm ok with it.) Yeah, Straitjacket Guy. Could he not get out of the straitjacket and no one would help him or what? Either way, I salute you, sir. You played it till the end (i.e. the RC, where he received a rose.) Bosawks, I love your dogs! Maybe we should all post pictures of our pets! Clare started it, bringing her adorable dogs with her to her covid-free locale. We can all follow suit, virtually! Wasn't Nick Viall 39 when he was The Bachelor? I don't recall anyone making a big deal out of his age, no catcalling about him being one of the oldest bachelors. Per the previews, looks like the contestant pointing out Clare's age got his ass handed to him by her. Nice. I totally get Clare's reaction to Dale. I went on a tour to Europe when I was younger, one of the 4-countries- in-2-weeks-with-1-suitcase type of tour and met an Irish guy in a pub in Dublin. It was thunderbolt city for me. We spent the next day together but parted without plans to keep in touch. I was a very young 26 and just wasn't ready. So I say to Clare, you go, girlfriend. If it feels so right from the beginning, see it through to the end; no regrets. Eazy for the next Bachelor? I'm in!

Hey, Jamie. Cousin Itt called and wants his hair back.

On the bird seed issue, I'm hoping the waiter was in on the joke--fingers crossed--otherwise, way too weird I was telling Bennett, "Don't tell your sister you love Amelia before you tell Amelia! No!!!!!" Thankfully, he didn't. Whew! Close one. I'm getting the Katie "I am so beautiful" vibes from ChristinA. Sorry girls, you're both cute but maybe a little (read: a lot) less cute than you seem to think you are.

I forgot to add in my previous post---Amani's voice used to grate on my nerves but now I find it soothing. How'd that happen? It's a Christmas Miracle---in September! : ) Neurochick, you are the best gif-er around!

Miles is a man of my heart. If someone made a special meal for me and then spontaneously asked a crowd to join in, I would be upset, too. Don't be messing with my food. Olivia: where fun goes to die. (Has someone said that before? Sounds awfully familiar.)

That's a lot of speculation. That could happen, or she could end up staying with Miles. Or the relationship with Miles could end and she could meet a man in the next 2 years and fall in love, get married and have 3 kids before she's 40. It could go either way.

Geez Louise, she's 30! She has all the time in the world!
