Am I just crazy like Jenna, or does it seem that the Bachelor is getting more and more dramatic every season??
Today I watched last night's episode and on of the girls, (picture to follow) said that she was NO drama, and that she wanted to have a good night with no 'cat fights'....and then she turned out to be the one trying to stir up fights with other girls!

I am starting to think that this show is all about strategy. I would also say that that is the understatement of the century! I remember in a class once, the teacher pulled me aside and asked me if I would pretend that I thought that the Bachelor was a great way to meet your spouse....it was pretty fun to stir up the class a little. I even got my little kitten-claws out! I guess I understand how these girls do it.
If I MUST pick my favorite girl, I would say that Kaycie B. from Tennessee is my fav. She seems pretty down-to-earth, but really...there are a lot of good actors out there!

My other beef with this show is that they pick the most WILD dates to go on together. It is a PRIME example of the Excitation Transfer Theory. On one of the dates that Ben (the current Bachelor) took Kaycie B on, they went to an old theater where they had the theater to themselves. They sat and talked for a minute, but then something came on the screen. It was videos of them growing up. It was emotional and fun and exciting, and even heart breaking to see Ben watch videos of his Father who passed away 5 years ago. I admit, I got a little teary-eyed. It was cute.
But then, as soon as the movie was over, they were kissing...and talking about this deep connection they had with each other! Keep in mind this is their first date!
If that doesn't convince you, on the episode that I watched today, they had Ben take another girl on a date where they CLIMBED THE SAN FRANCISCO GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE... I can bet you that they asked all the girls what they are most afraid of, and they targetted this girl for that date because she was TERRIFIED of heights. She froze about halfway up, and what did Ben do to cheer her on? He kissed her! and what did she say after that? That they had such a wonderful connection, and she felt like she was going to fall in love with him!
What was really happening was that she was overtaken by emotions and a strong physiological reaction because of the height which she is terrified of that the emotion she was feeling was transferred into a feeling of "love"....
Interesting stuff huh?
Well, I gotta go work on my application to be the next Bachelorette...
JUST KIDDIN! I'm engaged :-)
Thanks for readin'! I hope I didn't offend anyone...I do love the bachelor, just sayin'.
HAHA this show is NUTS! I actually watched that episode cause my roommates were watching it and man those girls are HORRIBLE!
ReplyDeleteYeah, my roommates have been watching this season and I'm getting sucked in. It is seriously FASCINATING how these girls treat each other and react!
ReplyDeleteI have kind of a hate-love relationship with the Bachelor. Maybe I shouldn't even say that, because I've only seen two episodes! It's fascinating to think of all the crazy psychological things going on here - human emotions are pretty messy. The only thing I can keep thinking is, "if that were me, and I knew that guy had been kissing every one of us, the only thing I could say would be SEE YA!"
