Who will be watching Emily Maynard the Bachelorette? No Spoilers PLEASE

[Imzadi]

Once again I guess I'm in the minority, but I'm not getting the Jef vibe that you all have. I'm not sure what it is about him. He seems SO young, but yet he's 27 so not as young as Chris (who DOESN'T seem young...). Is it the hair? I'm trying to think back on him, and I think it's because he seems so serious or awkward or... I don't know. Have we seen him just be himself? Does he know how to lighten up and have fun? That first kiss was just painful to watch for me, lol.

I want to be clear, when I say Jef is hip & cool, I mean I'm sure 20 somethings think he is. Not that I think he is.

Violetrose said what I suspected a few pages back:

I think you are absolutely right. My daughter is 23 and he is her favorite. I keep pushing Sean on her and she's like, "eww Mom he looks almost as old as Dad"! I guess Sean appeals to the cougars who like their men to look and act like men. My daughter and all her friends like guys like Jef, who is sort of quirky. I do like Jef though, he is a really nice guy. Don't see him with Emily at all though.

I cannot believe I'm about to post a Justin Beiber picture.
But, yes, Jef's young quality has a LOT to do with his hair. He's trying so hard to be cool. Even leaving off one "F" at the end of his name probably has to do with an image he wants.

Here is a picture of 27 year old Jef:

Here is 18 year old Justin Bieber who just graduated high school:

(No, I don't know who the kid is he is holding.)

Like I said earlier, I'm really impressed with Emily this season. The ONE negative thing that comes across to me with her is that she seems to be looking too hard for that PERFECT man - I'm afraid nobody is going to be good enough for her or meet her high expectations. And we all know there is no such thing as a perfect man (only perfect women...)

I agree, she has been looking for the perfect man who will stand up to the image of her late fiance, Ricky.

I cannot believe I'm about to post a Justin Beiber picture.

Neither do I!!!!

Yuk to both pics, I am WAAAAY past the age where girly guys are adorable. AND I think Emily is, too.

Ok, there really needs to be a no Justin Bieber pics allowed rule here on this thread! I just ate dinner and popped over to see what you ladies have been up to and I see THAT! My oldest daughter is 11 and thinks he looks like a girl.

Jef (with one "f") is young looking. And riding into the first rose ceremony on a skateboard didn't help. But I do like him, not for myself obviously but I think he's charming in a down to earth way.

I still don't know who Travis is lol.

 

[Elinor Dashwood]

I still don't know who Travis is lol.

I just learned he's from Mississippi too! Emily just mentioned it.

Lol, so Emily's pissed that Travis didn't take off his shirt?

 

[phorsenuf]

"It's like a whole other world." What a stupid thing to say. What was she expecting exactly?

 

[Elinor Dashwood]

Sooo, Ryan says he's the bad boy that Emily likes. He's the mean guy on the football field and he misses that guy. Um, is anyone else thinking he's Bruce Banner? Let's see if he busts out of his shirt and turns all green. Man this dude is nuts.

On a side note, Croatia is beautiful though.

Ryan just said, " I know I can MANIPULATE the situation. . . "

Haha I know right! I can totally see Ryan on the Bachelor Pad in the future.

 

[phorsenuf]

Poor Travis. First date in 2 years and he's sent packing.....

 

[Imzadi]

Egg Guy goes home.

 

[Elinor Dashwood]

Wow, Travis is going home! He looked pretty shocked but handled it well I thought. Emily is cutting through these guys like a warm knife through buttah.

ETA: Oh wait, he's turning into a blubbery mess now. That's going suck to watch back, don't you think?

 

[Imzadi]

Oh no. Doug is going to cry later!

Well, at least, he can understand how she feels since he said that's what happened between his fiance & him. That the extra something that says this person is "the one," wasn't there.

 

[phorsenuf]

yeah.....let's go on a date where we can't talk.

 

[Cat0727]

Umm yea this is gonna be hilarious!

 

[Imzadi]

Why are they wearing kilts in Croatia? Was the show not allowed in to Scotland to shoot, which was where they'd rather have been?

 

[Elinor Dashwood]

Chris shooting that arrow! He looked like a duck with his butt sticking out. No way to pull off that stance manly.

And Arie's arms look kind of little compared to the other guys. Yup, his weenie status is being confirmed.

 

[daemom]

I'm voicing a peeve (maybe not a pet peeve)......but it's starting to annoy me that she says, "I know, right?"......ALL....OF.....THE....TIME!!!! Right?
