He was hot! 🔥

The post you quoted is from September of last year! The show aired, he got married, and got divorced since then!

Hopefully, the fillers in Joan's face will have relaxed a bit and she will be able to show emotion. We know very little about her so it's not like she won't live up to expectations - because there are none! I'm more curious about the men! In the regular series, the men seemed to bond with one another more than the B-ette. I wonder if that will be the case here as well. I think that alone would be worth watching. I enjoyed the Golden Bachelor, not because I was hoping for a happy ending for Gerry, but because the women got along so well.

I had hopes for the Golden Bachelor, for many of the reasons given above. I even got my husband to watch with me. I was glad it had a happy ending with the engagement. My husband did not watch the ATFR (or the wedding), but I did and told him about the wedding. Something inside me told me it was happening too fast. I watched the wedding, but it was so... scripted. ??? It just felt odd. (Sidenote: I did not tell my husband about the former girlfriend stories. I guess I wanted him to enjoy it for what was presented on the show.) I was not surprised in the least that they announced their divorce. I'm glad there was a prenup. I wish Theresa the best. Yes, I told my husband about the divorce announcement. Is it weird I wanted him to believe in the "fantasy" for as long as possible? Yes, weird. I enjoyed watching it together with him. I really liked the cast for the most part. We laughed a lot through it.

It's a rather click-baity title. She's breaking her silence about her (and family's) feelings concerning Bachelor Nation being so speculative about the divorce. She's not divulging inside information.

I agree. Coffee date is very casual and no expectations. 2nd date might be lunch or a dinner-date at a pizza place. FWIW, I met my husband on an online dating site when I was 49. We've been married for almost 14 years now. He's cooking me Valentine's Day dinner as I type! I did kiss a few toads before I met my prince. I went out with a guy 8 or 9 times. It was time to be more physical. Oh god, the hairy back - and that wasn't the worst of it. Let's just say he had his shortcomings. I've since nicknamed him "the nub". I hope you have a great night, ladies! (I blame the wine for my bluntness)

I didn't think April had a frozen face. She had prominent cheekbones, so think she had work done. Joan and Faith were ones with frozen faces.

Her name is April, not Amber. ETA - Whoops, didn't see it rolled to the next page with the correct name.

When my mother passed away in 2020, my husband and I cleaned out her house that she, and my step-father who predeceased her, had lived in for 55 years. It was very tidy anywhere a visitor would see. But the cabinets (and there were lots of cabinets!) were crammed full of stuff. Mom had a Costco membership (yes, even as a single person) and she was a child of the depression. So kitchen cabinets would have hundreds of empty Cool Whip and salsa containers and anything else that could be reused. There must have been 30-40 rolls of Aluminum foil, cases of Kleenex, both of which my husband and I are still using as I haven't bought any since her passing. Her bathroom cabinets were packed all the way to the front. When cleaning them out, I could tell when Oil of Olay was on sale. It was like rings of a tree - you'd find 4 bottles of it here, dig a little further and another 4 bottles. I think all up, there were over 20 bottles. She probably couldn't find the batch she previously purchased and just ended up buying more. Same with toothpaste, and mouthwash, and moisturizer, bandaids, Tylenol, and anything else you can think of. I thought I scored when I found a stash of Retin-A she had purchased on a trip to Mexico, but it was from the 1990's, thick, yellow, and smelly. I thought she was in great shape during COVID lockdown because she had so much in her pantry. It turned out most of it expired in the early 2000's, some in the late 1990's. Cans of tomatoes and pineapple had eaten through the cans and you can only imagine the mess that made. My husband joked that no one needs 100 boxes of Jello. Prior to her passing, I often heard her say, "Someone else can deal with it when I'm gone."

I don't know if Theresa could have "pulled off" either of those dresses, beautiful as they are. She is petite, but has a bit of a meno-pot. A simple satin dress like that will show every bump and bulge and Spanx can only do so much. The side gathering on the first picture would help hide it, but I think she would still be self-conscious (or maybe not). I also thinks she has nice legs and could have chosen an above-the-knee length dress with an empire waist. I got remarried in 2010 and got a champagne colored, above the knee dress at JCrew - they actually had a bridal department back then! It was perfection, and I am petite like Theresa. The dress she chose overwhelmed her and was too "first wedding" -ish. I'm okay with someone wanting to wear white on a 2nd wedding. But I think all the lace and tulle was a bit much. Her hair plus the veil closed in her face. It was just all kinds of wrong.

I wonder if Theresa picked the dress she would have chosen if she had more time to plan her first wedding.

I watched the season with my husband, as I thought he would enjoy it. And he did. I previewed the wedding episode, thank goodness, before having him waste his time on it. I am going to invite him to watch Bachelor Fantake's review of it. There was too much cringe on this episode. And too many faces I don't really care about anymore. My husband wouldn't know who 95% of these people were. I don't watch live, only on Hulu. I've found some sort of glitch on Hulu that works in my favor. If you watch a portion of a show (and sorry, I don't know how long), then pause it for half an hour or so and come back to it - you don't get any commercials! You can sense where the breaks are because there's a slight repeat of scenes.

Same link was posted on November 29 on page 32 of this thread. It's old news.

They met less than 4 months ago! Absolutely they need a prenup, to protect both of them. Also, consider that they are potentially protecting their heirs as well.

I'm 65. I've highlighted my dark brown hair for 25 years (growing up, I was a sandy blonde, but at age 20, it went dark). So I'm back to a somewhat sandy-blonde look now. During Covid, it grew out for 6 months without highlighting and I was surprised I didn't have many grays. I don't want to go to brown because I'm pale with grey-blue eyes and it just doesn't look right - I look like a ghost. And why oh WHY is it my eyebrows didn't go dark? I have invisibrows because they are so much like my skin color. I lighten the hair, darken the brows.
