The Bachelor... Jamie

*May contain spoilers*

How awkward was she tonight?!?  She was my favorite 'first impression' girl but then kind of vanished, and then tonight she was totally weird.  Do you think she was just nervous or is always that awkward?

  • I don't know if that's normal for her or not, but it was awkward! Their kiss, her straddling him, everything!

  • The way she was swaying at the rose ceremony I'm wondering if she had a few to many to drink to "loosen up" a bit in order to push herself a bit? Definitely awkward!

  • I felt bad for her.  That was extremely awkward.  She was just out of her element.  Many of the other girls are just flirty by nature and she is more reserved.  It just seemed like she was trying to force this flirtation and it obviously went very wrong.  And I don't even think it was the alcohol.  Their group date one-on-one time was starting to become awkward as well, especially her comments about all the things she wanted to do to Ben.  It came off a little creepy/stalkerish

  • I was embaressed for both of them.
  • Oh it was so, so uncomfortable!

  • I thought Jamie was funny. I did feel bad for her. She seems like a good person who was just in the wrong situation for her. She was trying too hard and too late.

  • Isn't there a word for when you feel embarassment for other people? I could barely watch her tonight, it was so uncomfortable. I was never a huge fan of her but I think she was just in over her head. She always talked and over-analyzed everything so much, it reminded me of a junior high girl.
    2 IVFs & 1 FET. Welcome home baby girl!

    He accused her of being in love with her ex boyfriend. Which she eventually agreed with and Ben told her not so nicely to leave. Omg it hurt to watch the Jamie scene at the cocktail party!!

    Ahhhh, yes. This was the first train wreck of the evening. I actually felt really bad for her. It came to their attention that she was still in love with someone back home. Basically she was in love with someone and he said that he would never marry her. Because of that, she knows she can't be with him so she went on the show hoping to meet someone else, magically get over him and move on. You can tell this guys back home really screwed with her head.

    On that note, does anyone else find it crazy that they felt the need to intervene with this, but they let Bently go on and on and said nothing?

    It was painful to watch Jamie. I felt so bad for her. I actually had my hands in front of my face and couldn't look at the TV. It was horrible.

    I read on People.com an interview with Chris that said he would never let a situation like Bently happen again and he would intervene when necessary the next time (in so many words)... so I guess this situation was supposed to prove that.  Indifferent

  • I agree that Jamie was super awkward. I thought it seemed like she was drunk too though. I think she was trying to be this "sexy" person that she thought Ben wanted but was just so out of her element and didn't know what to do.

  • I know this is off the Jamie topic, but can we talk about how painful it was to watch Blakely show him her magazine clipping scrapbook of the "life she envisions" with Ben?  Ahhhh!  I've never cringed so hard, haha!

    That was way awkward!  It was creepy to let on how much you've been envisioning your life together when you've only known each other a couple of months and he's dating several other women!

  • Yeah, this whole episode was really awkward.

    I felt bad for Jamie.   It came across as super desperate.   You have someone who basically doesn't spend too much time alone with him or developing a relationship, and then they try to play "catch-up" in order to save themselves from elimination.   She should have been more aggressive (but slowly) earlier on instead of doing it as a last ditch effort to catch his interest.  

    I felt sort of bad for Casey S, but I also kind of wanted to grab her by the shoulders and shake some sense into her.  On the one hand, I believed her that she was no longer in a relationship with her DB ex.   I don't know what else you need than to say, "he didn't want marriage, I do, the end."   And plenty of people have that kind of baggage when entering into the next relationship.   I didn't see it as a big deal and I think they did it to get drama.

     But then, I also felt like Casey must be terribly insecure if she thinks she needs a man.   Dude, get over your DB ex and THEN pursue another relationship.  Don't just heal from your past relationship by finding a man who'll marry you.
