Re: Ryan Bowers - Bachelorette 8 Contestant - Thread #3

[Guest]

"I mean, a couple of times, uh, in hours and hours of footage, um, Arie and I, uh, we kinda had this understanding with each other that they were going to try to work something, you know, against us. So, we kinda played into it a little bit – me not realizing that he was playing it a whole different way."

So Ryan is referring to TP when he said 'they' and Arie kinda knifed him. I would love to hear Arie's side of this. What does he mean that they 'kinda played into it?" In their PIs? I need to listen to what Ryan might have sd about Arie in them. Interesting that they were aware of TP manipulations and were figuring out ways around it, if this comment is to be trusted.

Why would it not be trusted? What would be the purpose of him lying post show about that? We've heard in the past about all the manipulations... why would this be any different?

Poor choice of words. He wouldn't have to be lying - I am wondering if his perception was accurate. I am wondering if Arie actually agreed to join forces with him, or if Ryan talked it up with Arie and assumed they had an understanding.

Thanks for explaining what you were thinking! That could be a possibility.

Or - the edited Arie isn't what Ryan expected!

Ryan probably is a very nice guy, but Arie and the others are the ones that had to live with him for several weeks. They spent 24/7 with this guy, so I am sure he got annoying real fast. Ryan didn't need anybody's help in making him look bad, because he did a pretty good job all by himself. His comment about if Emily got fat he would do less lovin on her. He lost me after he said that. Neither the cameras, the producers or Arie made him say that. Those words came out of his mouth. Plus the whole trophy wife statement not once but several times, was over the top. I dont blame some of the guys for feeling he wasn't there for the right reasons.

[just logic]

I too am sure he can be very nice with a great heart but he does tend to take cocky to a whole new level. It's great to have confidence but his over-confidence is coming across as arogance and I think the guys probably got very tired of it after a couple of weeks.

Who does Ryan still like and plan to keep in contact with? Doug and Micheal? Just curious.

[christinemega]

Ryan is just a different guy. I mean.. come on, everybody has different characters and personality. Obviously, Ryan is saying some unpleasant words but he is probably a unique guy with his own understanding of every words he said, but I think deep down inside he is a good guy. Sometime in life, people perceive a friendship understanding or relationship quite differently. I still hope he can be the next bachelor and find the right woman.

Do I think Ryan is ready for a relationship with Emily or a woman with a child? NO. Ryan, Joe, Alessandro and Kalon are one of the guys that are NOT ready yet for a relationship that involves woman's child. They might be a good boyfriend or husband for some other relationship with other women, but not with Emily.

DO I think he can find a great woman and settled down? YES, as long as he learnt from his lessons and not keep saying the unpleasant words to a woman and show his genuine love and character.
I hope he can find one, especially a christian girl who has the same belief as him and they share the same understanding of faith, which I think Ryan will find one someday.

Emily Maynard is a grt gal yall! We had fun...we just want diff things. I want a wife that is crazy about Jesus and sees Him in me and wouldnt settle for a man that doesnt have that. Thank you to those who have gone out of their way to encourage me through a not so accurate portrayal. I'm baffled at those who stoop so low to 1. think you know somebody u saw on a reality show and 2. go out of your way to try to make that person feel bad through some negative messaging. I hope yall find what us encouragers have found in "the peace that passes all understanding." Again, thank you NICE people :-) I wish I could respond to all of you but the Lord has blessed me with a flood of kind words from you all! Blessings

Buddy grows up

Look what i found in my travel bag!!! Lol there obviously was not a pearl in that oyster!! :-(

@RyanBowers22 May I make a small suggestion? The wording of trophy wife is what you may want to scale back a bit. Might help-communication?

Ryan Bowers ‏@RyanBowers22

On Jef's media interview he said he was the least close to Ryan and he didn't think Ryan was there for the "right reasons." He basically isn't a fan of Ryan, but I don't think he ever told Ryan any of this to his face.

So I wonder if him and Arie share the same thoughts about Ryan?

They probably do since they are, afterall, BFFs Woody and Buzz. I'm not sure I believe that Ryan was there for the wrong reasons. I think between his quirky ways and his edit, he came off kinda bad at times. I did think the whole scene after Ryan's luggage got taken away showed a level of immaturity of most of the other guys, excluding Doug and Sean. But, that's just me. :Biggrin:

^^^Agreed...saw a frat boy mentality...lowered my opinion of both Arie and 1F!
