Bachelorette discussion (spoilers)
I can't say that I was shocked that Sean went home, but I was very sad about it. Especially since he had said when he was leaving the fantasy suite that he was looking at his wife! 
I was an Arie fan in the beginning, but now he just bugs me. He just seems so clueless 99% of the time (although the package at the end with his outtakes of his video message did crack me up) For a brief moment, he seemed so clueless about what it would be like to be a dad that I actually thought she might send him packing!
Re: Bachelorette discussion (spoilers)
Yeah I knew she was going to send Sean but I was sad when he left. He handled himself so awesome and it made me like him more after that!
I don't like Arie. I do like Jef but I think she will pick Arie.
They did make it seem like she picks neither in the previews alittle but it almost seemed too obvious that that wouldn't happen?
I was so sad Sean went home. He is just so cute! I thought she'd send Arie home instead. Although I didn't think Sean could ever win, I was surprised he wasn't in the F2. I think she'll end up with Jef.
Jef seems to be almost asking her to court him as much as he courts her, and I think she finds that attractive.
I was sad Sean left too - I think she ends up with Jef, but I wanted to see Sean in the final two just in case I'm wrong! I can't stand Arie, and hate the idea of suffering through another episode with him. If she's so torn, I'm wondering if she doesn't choose either of them.
Has the ATFR show always been live?
according to this article, it was 2 times in the past (both were years ago):

Sarah, clearly that's because you haven't spent 295 hours of your time making out with him. That seems to be where the appeal comes from....

The more she cries the more apparent it becomes to me that she uses Botox on her forehead. She's obviously gorgeous, but I find that a little distracting.
Anyway, this is going to make me sound like I watch too much reality dating TV (which I do), but I do feel like there's just an intangible connection between people and you can't force it even if you want to. I think that's where she was w/ Sean. I know I've felt that way about guys before. And with Arie, I don't see it, but apparently she feels it. I didn't necessarily disagree with his ideas about how to approach a relationship w/ Ricki, but I also don't know what kind of dad he'll be. He seems to enjoy traveling and socializing, and I'm not sure he's in a child raising place in his life. I know she's used to living as a single mom, but I thought the point of this was to change that.
Jef has been my front runner for a while, so I'm not complaining
I hate that the finale's on a Sunday. DH is never going to let me watch it over True Blood!
(ETA: reports are that she has had a nose job and veneers. She definitely looks different from her HS pics: http://www.wetpaint.com/the-bachelor/gallery/revealed-personal-photos-of-emily-maynard)
***Randomly busting in and haven't been on in awhile so no right to comment, but am anyway..***
I am sad to see Sean go too. I don't think Arie is cute at all. He looks sleepy all the time or something.
And thanks for posting on the plastic surgery... I was wondering on that and wondering if her boobs were fake too? They were so large and "up" (wish mine were still after having kids and nursing... sigh...)
Oh and anyone else find it wierd that she acts like she is such a good role model for not spending the night with those guys. But dating 25 people at once and kissing on them is okay? How do you explain that to little Ricky?!
Really, I admit I watch this show just to feel better about myself... I may have National Geographic boobs and hate my husband but it is still so wierd to me after all these years of this show being on that the morals of the whole idea of it are ok with these people!
Yes, and didn't she stay overnight w/ Brad when she was on before?
Also, I thought the date card said you had to "forgo your individual rooms to stay together as a couple in the fantasy suite." I didn't realize that having both was an option!
You know, that must be it! Have they ever really talked about anything?? Lol!
I haven't seen the whole episode yet but this makes me sad because I really like Sean
Admittedly have only watched 1 or 2 episodes but mostly b/c I can't stand Emily. Yes, she has a sad story but for the love of all that is good, enough already. There are a gazillion single moms that don't have their daughter's trust fund to live off of so please stop trying to convince us your life is so hard & what you have done is so admirable. The veneers and boob job are so obvious & all she wants is someone to "take care of her & Ricki" and someone to support her so she can have more kids. Which is why she should be looking at a sugar daddy and not some 20 yr old guy. And they better have some $$$ but she certainly isn't living a cheap lifestyle. I'm all for staying at home and raising kids but she's 25 - don't you have any other interests to share? I'm seriously hoping she fades away into reality oblivion soon.
And since everything in Us Magazine is the truth - I totally believe this

How time flies! Caileigh (9), Keira (6) & Eamon (3)
Her teeth distract me SOOO much! They look fake!
