Rose Lovers!

What did you think of last night's episode?  It very well may have been THE most dramatic finale of the Bachelorette ever!     I felt really bad for Des - if that was acting, she could win an Oscar for her performance.  You can just tell she was really not expecting that at all.  

I also think at this point, she can't pick either of the other 2.  Even if she did, after watching last night's show, I'd think they'd dump her knowing they were definitely a distant second.

Re: Rose Lovers!

  • I totally agree.  I have no idea what is going to be in the episode next week, because how do you pick someone else? it was very obvious that it has been brooks for a long time.  I felt really bad for her...and actually bad for Brooks, too.  I mean, he can't help how he feels (or doesn't feel) so what else was he supposed to do?  better to tell her now, than dump her when he was supposed to be proposing.

  • I am still hoping he comes back next week! I think he's more scared of commitment so I am hoping he realizes he doesn't want to lose her! But I felt awful for her and yes even him-he seemed to feel really bad!
  • I felt bad for Brooks, too.  Even when you're the one doing the breaking up, it still hurts to hurt someone that you do care about.  I feel like if they were dating in the normal world (and not in the accelerated Bachelor world), they'd be fine.  Most people aren't ready to propose after 2 months, but it's like Brooks feels like he HAS to be at that point and he's not.

  • Amber makes a good point, in the real world not being ready to propose in 2 months would be normal! But, I did know after 2 months that I was on that path with DH. The stuff Brooks was saying, like he lost his feelings for her when they were apart, was definitely not in line with how I felt about DH at month 2.

    For Des's part, I felt bad for her but I also felt like her choosing Brooks may have been indicative of a pattern with her (she has repeatedly mentioned that her ex didn't express himself well, and Brooks was clearly not as expressive about how he felt about her as the other two she has remaining). I also don't see how can can pick one of the others now though. Even after Brooks broke up with her she was like, I don't care, I love you and it's been you the whole time. That would be tough to take back!

    I wonder if Brooks would be considered for the next Bachelor.

  • I haven't been watching, but caught some of this episode.  Brooks is totally coming back.  After 20 some seasons of Bachelor/Bachelorette, I'm on to their games!  (Of course when Reid came back for Jillian, I was convinced that she would pick him and not slimy drunk Ed, so my track record is weak.)
  • I can't add anything different from what has already been said. The final will be interesting!!
