Bachelor talk! *spoilers*

Ok, I know that her hometown date was a hot mess, but I was really shocked that he sent Des home!!  It broke my heart a little to watch him say goodbye, it really seemed like he thought he was making a mistake :(  I really figured it would be Catherine who was sent packing.  (also, if I were here, I would be livid with my sisters!!  They pretty much threw her directly under the bus!) 

Thoughts?  When is the Women Tell All special?  I thought it was tonight, but then the preview looked like it was just Sean who would be talking.

Re: Bachelor talk! *spoilers*

  • I fell asleep right before the rose ceremony, so I had to read the EW recap to find out who he sent packing.  I am shocked it was Des, too.   Although, maybe her brother touched a nerve.  I don't believe that at this point anyone really goes on The Bachelor to find true love - if you end up together, that's a bonus.  So it was maybe to not lead her on?  I don't know. 

    Also, can I just say that if I had a tv crew coming to my house, I'd at least close the cabinets in the kitchen, and shut the drawers all the way closed in the dresser in the bedroom.  (Catherine's family!)   And, seeing Des' parents, where in the heck did she come from?    

  • confession: I teared up a bit during AshLee's dad's story about when he first met her after she was in 5 (five!) foster homes Crying

  • I know, between AshLee and her sad story and Sara - this season has tugged at my heart strings a lot!
  • I felt so bad for Des. I really thought she was the frontrunner and her brother ruined that. I so was waiting for sean to be like don't leave! I felt like he really didn't want to let go. I get so into these and most don't even last! Haha Amber-yeah I wasn't seeing the resemblence with Des and her parents!
  • I think that Des and her brother's relationship will probably be pretty messed up for a while.

  • I was shocked that he sent home Des too! I really didn't see that coming, even w/ the brother. I figured he'd send Catherine home. If it were me, I'd be more concerned about Catherine's hometown b/c I'd actually be questioning her, not just her family.

    Des's parents seemed so sweet, and she is too. Where'd that brother come from! I could see the resemblance w/ her dad.

    I also liked Lindsey's dad! His response to Sean asking his blessing was really nice and I liked her little brother (he looked like a good hugger)!

    AshLee's dad had me in tears too! I can't imagine a 4yo being passed around like that -- what a shame. 

    I find it interesting overall that, aside from AshLee, none of his final girls appear to come from money. It seems like the guy contestants always have super fancy hometown settings, and the girls don't necessarily. Maybe producers feel that it's more important for the guys to have money than the women? Or maybe it's a coincidence! I was surprised Des's house was as nice as it was given that her family is poor and she works as a bridal consultant.

  • I was also curious why it seemed that they never went inside of AshLee's family's home.  The table that they ate at in the yard was not a typical outdoor table.  And they talked with Sean on the porch.  I wonder if they didn't want cameras inside or something?
  • When Des' parents started talking about the weather?? SO AWKWARD!! That may have been the worst hometown I've seen. Maybe Sean realized that so much of his life with her would involve her family and if they already don't get along it might be a good idea to cut his losses. Yes, you can get over someone's family if you really love them, but I don't think he knows if he loves her that much yet.
