The Bachelor - An Officer and a Gentlemen

[snowy76]

I like Tessa, but it was clear that Andy had to lead her into saying, "I want to fall in love with you." Is she not that into him? Or is it just really hard to talk honestly with the cameras around?

I'd say the latter - I talk JUST like that when I'm nervous - did so with DH when we started dating - I always thought I sounded like a little kid giving him goofy looks and telling him how much I liked him. My DH, OTOH, actually giggled from time to time! Tessa sounded like my dating experiences reincarnated.

I also noticed the kiss thing. And the way he sort of shouted her name. TESSA! He asked if she would PLEASE accept this rose... big emphasis on "please" there... he is smitten and I will eat my remote control if he doesn't pick her.

I pretty much agree with everyone else, he is crazy about Tessa. I am tired of Bevin's incessant weeping and clingyness, and although I think he genuinely likes Danielle as a friend, there is no love match there. I knew Amber was dead in the water when Andy made the sorority girl comment.

I don't blame Tessa for being cautious, I would be too in her circumstances. I think we have all seen the girl not picked in the end just devastated because they thought for sure they were the one. You never really know.

What I think is interesting is that in the last 2 rose ceremonies, he immediately said Tessa's name first without hesitation. It is almost like he doesn't want her to suffer needlessly. I really think he cares about her a lot.

I think Andy is the most sincere bachelor they have ever had. He honestly seems to be there to find the love of his life, not to further his career (a la Bob), or promote his new restaurant (forgot his name, the banker from MO), or just to have a good time, like Charlie. He is determined to find someone totally compatible to share the rest of his life with. I really hope he picks Tessa and that things work out for them. Then again, I am a hopeless romantic.

I heard there was no "Girls tell all" episode or "after the final rose" episode this season... Maybe because there is really no dirt to dish? Interesting.

There was something else that was funny last night. I can't remember which family Andy was meeting, but he was presenting the mom with a gift. He said something like, "Uh, I brought you some flowers, so uh, here ya go." He sounded like a total surfer dude!

 

[goofy's friends]

And, remember he said it was all over if Tessa's family didn't approve of him. He's definately got a lot invested in her!

No Tell All? That's a first. Wonder if Andy didn't want it--he seems too good a guy to watch all the girls turn on each other.

That WAS funny! I think he was a bit flustered because he had only one bouquet of flowers and the mother and step mother were both there. Who do you give them to?

If he was smooth he would have said they were for the dinner table. But he's not smooth... which is exactly why he's awesome!

i must be the only person on the planet that likes Bevin I really dont care for Tessa at all, I think that her family and her best friend were very unwelcoming and a bit rude. Do I think Bevin is a drama llama without a doubt, but as much as Andy says he needs someone strong, i think he likes the "hero " image as well and i see that more with Bevin than anyone. Watch we will all be wrong and it will be Danielle

I have been using the whole Andy/Tessa thing to show my DD what men really want.

Wheen you want to make a man fall hard, you have to be strong, confident, and aloof. If he thinks you are out of his league, he'll chase you for a good long time.

DD is having a problem understanding that concept...but I have faith that when Andy chooses Tessa, she will understand.

LOL!! Don't worry, it takes experience for women to learn this. I didn't know when I was younger either!! She'll learn.

Does anyone remember who it was he danced with in the first or second show? It was real couple dancing, ya know, ballroom stuff. Anyway I remember thinking at the time that he was really loving every minute of it. If it wsa Tessa then that was the moment I think he started to fall for her

Really? I guess I'm not surprised - he doesn't seem like the kind of guy that wants to rehash why he sent them home. I stupidly thought that was in his contract though. Good for him if he told them no.

I also noticed that he didn't bring something for each family. One time he showed up empty handed. Thought that was odd.

That was the short brunette....Nicole was her name I think.

Possible spoiler below!!


I just heard on E! News that Andy picks Tessa! They claim to know this
because they say she had too many cocktails one night and told that he picks her, proposes, she says no, but they are still together! I don't know how
true this is but it is just what I heard.

I thought if they let the cat out of the bag before the final they had to pay a bunch of money......like they sign a contract to keep quiet or something???

Has anyone else heard about any of this?? Highlight above to find out what I'm talking about!

 

[goofy's friends]

No, I hadn't heard--ANd I really wish I hadn't just opened this!! DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW THAT!!

 

[blue_eyes5212]

I'm sorry!!!!!! I don't know how to do the thing where you have to highlight it to see what someone typed!!

I don't know if it's true!!!!

 

[Robinrs]

You can go and edit your remark right now but don't worry. E News is NOT the New York Times. They MAY be wrong!!

You can do the highlight thing by changing the wording to white....

highlight to read... Like THIS!!!

 

[blue_eyes5212]

Ok, I fixed it!! I always wondered how people did that!! Thanks!!

 

[Albertan mom]

Ahhh! I didn't want to know that spoiler!!
Even though it is white on here, when I opened up the email alert, it showed me everything!

I read on another message board that the reason there's no "Girls Tell All" episode had to do with timing of May sweeps.

I wish I hadn't seen this either. Although its in white when I was notified there was a new response via e-mail it all showed up. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. I know the OP didn't mean any harm though.
