The Bachelor Jake thread Spoilers welcome

[happygirl]

When this first started I didn't think I would like Gia at all due to her previous job. She really grew on me.


I saw screencaps of Gia and Jake taking photos in front of the Statue of Liberty. Did I miss when and where they did that.

Poor Tenley I hate seeing her cry

It was on Gia's hometown date IIRC

Okay, I'm admitting it. I've come over to the dark side. I really like Vienna. I still think she's immature, but I think she was really sincere. I think she's a little uncomfortable in front of the cameras, and feels like she has to be a certain way, but I really think she cares. I just don't think she's ready for marrieage - but were most of us? I know I thought I would have the fairy tale. It took 20 years to get there! I think Tenley would be the right wife material, but I don't think she's ready. She brings up her heartbreak in every conversation.

Too bad Gia couldn't open up more - I think she would've been really good for him. Yet if she didn't open up, maybe she doesn't really feel it either.

I think it's ridiculous for them to expect real people to fall in love in this process. I'm guessing he sent the 'right woman' home in the first rose ceremony. For him to keep saying 'I'm falling in love with three women' and then sending Gia, the only stable woman in his group of 3, home...he's a nutcase. Tenley and Vienna are just so immature and inexperienced as well as just dumb. He seems to have some brains but why isn't he using them....maybe he's using the wrong brain.

I must say that I was rooting for Gia even though I knew Vienna would stay until the end. However, I couldn't stand her looking through her eyelashes with that pout on her face. UGH! You're not a baby, you're a grown woman! Act like one! (I also think Gia is too NYC, ala Carrie Bradshaw, to settle for living in Texas.)

I was waiting for Jake to put Gia's legs on his lap when he was talking to her at the end.

Do you think we'll see Ali and Jake together after she is the Bachelorette? That would be interesting.

I figure Jake asked every girl what her favorite ring style is. ABC only showed us when he asked Vienna.

Jake is definitely thinking with his little brain.

 

[ash-n-brensmom]

I can see it now...Ali is the next bachelorette and in a surprise twist, one of her bachelors (probably introduced late in the game) is Jake...wait, didn't they do that already, or something close to it?

 

[NY Disney fan]

I was so embarrassed for Ali. Jake doesn't like her that way and she was in denial. Its like she needed him to say it. Gia should be the next Bachelorette, I can't take another season of Tenley talking about her ex husband. She needs time to heal.

If he did I'd love to see her put that 700 dollar shoe HEEL in his little brain...

Vienna actually grew on me last night. No, she's not the prettiest, but she seems the most real now. Tenley just doesn't seem to be over her divorce yet (not that you ever really are, I guess, but it just seems too raw right now.) She just seems like she is kind of playing the "perfect princess" role, and I think he is probably liking Vienna because she is a little more real. I noticed he mentioned Gia's expensive shoes and clothes a couple of times last night. I wonder if he was afraid he wouldn't be able to keep up with her extravagant lifestyle?

I think Jake is a little too rural for Ms. NYC, too.

I had to turn the TV off last night. I decided I don't like anyone left, including Jake. And if Ali is the next bachelorette, I am done. Now as I am typing this, I know I will be tuning in to the finale. But then I am done, I swear!

Don't we ALWAYS swear this????

I don't like Jake or Vienna, but I still like Tenley. Poor thing, she needs some serious therapy and probably will need an anti depressant after this mess.

I don't think she'll ever be considered for the Bachelorette, though. Can you imagine a full season of her dancing and talking about her ex???

BTW, I couldn't stand Molly and Jason or Jillian and Ed so this one will fit right up there with them!

Tenley wants "the fairy tale" (as she likes to say), but I'm not sure it's Jake she wants. She may be convincing herself of that, but I think deep down she wants a spectacular comeback and to end up with the life she thought she was getting the first time around. I don't mean that to sound like I think she's shallow because I don't.

But contrast her with Vienna, who (to me, anyway) is seriously into Jake. Say what you want about her, but she seems to really dig the guy. To me, she also seems the most natural around him. They seem "easy" together, and I don't mean that in a sleazy way. They just seem to "click". Weird, huh?

(I can't believe I'm saying this, but ....) I think I'd rather see Gia as the Bachelorette, but I'm guessing I don't get a say in it ....

I liked Gia so much more when she cried last night. She didn't come across as "real" for most of the season, but when she does, it's endearing (fake body parts and all....)

 

[Robinrs]

I have to add that my HOMEGIRL Gia was a class act last night. Wow! No Frank Basement Affair girl is SHE!!

True Class Act... she'll have guys who aren't intimidated by SHOES knocking down her door!!!! She can do MUCH better than that hick...

I totally agree. However, the problem is Jake is under a spell when he's around Vienna. He's not himself. Vienna throws herself at Jake and leaves nothing back or nothing to the imagination. Jake is under pressure to find love and Vienna is holding his hand the entire way, while the other girls are holding/held back.

 

[DeluxePrincess]

Alli just happened to still have a film crew with her when she was back at home supposedly working every day. The whole thing just screams fake to me. Seems that whole thing was a setup to position Alli as the next Bachelorette.

Last night's episode was so boring. Does Jake ever reveal anything about his life? We've been watching for weeks and all I know about him is that he is a pilot who likes to kiss and put girls' legs up on his lap.

 

[Bren's Mom]

Am I the only one that thinks of that crazy girl on the 'prince' season...you know, the one with the tiaras...whenever I see Vienna???

And I think the Bachelor is less fun now that we know RS is right on with his predictions...takes away any mystery. At least last season we could question if he was right or not. This season we know he had firm sources.

Yeah...That is the same feeling I got...It almost seems like Tenley is looking for a Disney fairy tale. I know she used to be a Disney Princess, but this isn't WDW.

Vienna just seems to just "get" him, and vice-versa. They seem like they are being themselves when they are together, and not really worried about impressing each other and having to say the right thing. Of course, that could all be in the edit, so who knows.
