I think what's always bothered me about M is the real her is very different from the persona she wants other to see.
Just be yourself. It's like she is ashamed of herself or trying to hide who she really is, believes and feels.

I really wonder if she knows who she is.

Congrats to one of my favs of this franchise!

Loved and love Moana!  She was so awesome on Travis's season, and I thought she really did get her heart broke.  I will always love her line when the friends asked which ring she would pick, she picked the hugest one and said she was as shallow as a wading pool, loved her making fun of herself!

Oh, yes. She was very heart broken.

The only issue I have with Emily is that she fell for and finished with Jef Holm --- the biggest loser/fraud of a F1 there has ever been.

Doesn't that tell you something? I was not impressed with her after 1st night on Brad's season as I expressed above, but picking 1F was definitely the coup de grace.

She didn't fall for Jeff...she fell for the family ranch...

I can't decide who the bigger fake is. I will give her a little credit for raising a nice kid ( by all appearances), and working a little if we consider her jewelry line her first job.

But I have so many questions about her seasons and they don't cast her in a good light.

I also can't believe she knew her hunky, responsible, adult of a fiancé before leaving for her season and picked Jef anyway. Did she really think he was the one or was it an easy job for her?   He really was so good at it, and he's been an even bigger disappointment.

I think she did it for the money and hopefully to open up other tv/entertainment possibilities.
I don't for a minute think she ever did it to find love or did fall in love with Effie.
M seems to re-write history as it suits her. We all do that to a certain extent especially as time goes on, but she seems to have it down to an art.

Emily never floated my boat. Didn't like her on Brad's season and always thought she was in it for entertainment purposes. And can I just say (which I know is awful so please forgive me) that her teeth drove me crazy!! They just don't fit in her mouth  :hidingchair 

And as far as re-writing history....you are right, Kasha, that we all re-write it to a certain extent. But most of us don't do it on international t.v. knowingly!!

Emily never intended to marry Brad nor Jef and she wouldn't have married Arie or Sean had she chosen them.
