Is it Juan-uary yet? Bachelor Juan Pablo dish - NO SPOILERS please!!!

[Robinrs]

I guess I had a very different reaction about Gia's memorial than everyone else. I found most of the footage and what she said about herself to be the exact opposite to what she really thought and felt, considering she committed suicide. She kept saying love was everything. Love was the answer to everything. But, she was engaged when she died. So love wasn't the answer to it all. Considering how much this devastated her mother, Gia didn't think how much she'd hurt someone who loved her so much. Suicide is often considered a very selfish act. That footage of her mother proves that poor woman will be heartbroken till the day she dies.

The show kept showing footage of Gia talking about how happy and carefree she was. Her mother said how happy Gia was. Obviously not. It was a front and a cover for the immense pain inside. I guess I'm a bit angry. Did she feel she had to always put on a front that she was only happy and the life of the party? That she couldn't share when she was in pain & suffering? So she couldn't reach out for help?

I think she was a very insecure girl who wanted desparately to be happy. She said she was kind and had a good heart. People like that have a hard time understanding people who do "bad' things. In her talks with Jake during her time on the bachelor she told him about the "bad guys" she dealt with, and then she hooked up with WES during the Bachelor Pad .... and the straw that broke the camels back was the NBA boyfriend.

They had just argued about his infidelity when she did this. I think she was hurt and stupid and unfortunately did something she probably wouldn't have done if she just slept and gotten past the pain. It's so sad, take it from me, she wouldn't even know his name in 10 years.

She was 29, a very volatile age for an unmarried girl with issues. I wish she did reach out but unfortunately, she did the one thing she couldn't change.

Yes, I think you just really nailed it.
Very well said.

I would even tend to think that there might have been some borderline ASD issues involved that skewed the way she saw and processed these kinds of things.

Just so VERY sad!!!!

I believe that Gia was a very, very, special person.
Maybe the most special person I have ever seen on the show, or any other.

I didn't see that piece last night.
But I can only imagine her mother and loved ones.
My heart really goes out to them.

All I could think about when he was driving with his little girl though was tighten that car seat harness! People here last week were worried about coats and car seats how kids could fly out.....

That loose harness was driving me nuts too. Glad someone else noticed it.

I'm not a parent and I thought same thing. I wanted to reach thru tv screen and tighten it for him

So Juan travels all over the world for his job? How is that going to jive with having a new wife and his little girl? I would be worried about that.

Probably why he hasn't found someone.

The Assistant District Attorney - was she a real one or a TV one? She seemed like an actress playing a role. Especially with the low cut top in court. How is she supposed to face her clients in court after she's been sucking face on TV?

Oklahoma Girl, who just broke up less than a year ago, can go home. Especially when she says it's something you never get over. <sniffle> Um, okaaay.

100% agree. I also really like the pediatric nurse, the special needs/elderly girl and the brain cancer dvd girl.

I just do not get all the Juan Pablo love here. I wonder how long it will take for others to change their tune. His sincerity is a big question mark for me. Maybe another Jake Pavelka type looking for a show business career.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

I just realized that I can watch WITH you all now - I've moved to CST! 8 pm EST, 7pm CST

I think so far the massage therapist is the crazy one

Awkward 2nd girl out!

I guess he thinks the blonde is cute or stacked.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

OH GEEZE! Lucy the Free Spirit wins the crazy award now!

I thought the one with the pregnant belly was going to have a soccer ball under her dress. That would have been apropos since Juan Pablo used to be a soccer player.

I agree that his sincerity seems off, maybe he is really nervous or something and the accent is already annoying. He was born in NY, curious when he moved to Venezuela for his accent to be so strong.

 

[Elinor Dashwood]

Ya so apparently the bigger the cleavage, the more flustered Juan gets.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Okay, I thought the piano girl should have ridden a horse, but I guess he liked it.

For sure!

I forgot I had a little bit of a late start - just saw the preggo - what?

He moved to Venezuela at about the age of two.


I think the crazy one is the one with the goats and the crossbow. She even said she'd be willing to file down her nails to claw out a few girls. Juan Pablo may have to watch out if he rejects her. She may really want to shoot an arrow through his heart.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Did anyone notice how he watched EVERY one of them walk away?

His personality is so cute.

Oh true! She'll be the "stalker" who comes back...

Not surprising...it looks as if those girls were vacuumed sealed into those dresses with a Food Saver.
