Yeah, exactly. Definitely reserved with CH but not with each other. All solid couples have their own secret language and understanding- a world that is just built for two people- and that's definitely SeanCat.

During the whole season Cat always seemed uncomfortable in front of the camera. Remember how she wanted to go to private places in order to kiss? SeanCat is a different couple.. they are both a little nerdy, more traditional, and not overtly "sexual".

Super agree! As I explained earlier, Pinays are usually reserved people. Imagine how uncomfortable we would be with cameras following us!

ITA. They're not traditional people but they're both traditional in relationships. I think the butt patting is as far sexual as we're ever going to get from them. :cutesmile!:

I love them together. They weren't super kissie face like past couples but I LOVE how much he loves here. That's how it should be.

It's obvious how much he adores her.

Too funny. Plus, wait for DWTS...how many times will Sean take his shirt off?

If they went a little too far in the other direction (ooey gooey in love) then skeptics would be saying they were trying too hard to prove they were in love. "If they were actually in love they wouldn't need to sell it like that. Showmance!" We've seen those comments directed at other Bach couples before.

I think it just proves we all have difference tolerance levels for PDA and expectations for how a couple should act on ATFR.

I totally agree, albean. I thought the only awkwardness was with Chris H. and the questions (or lack thereof) he asked. The best he seemed to be able to do was to ask in different ways how it was feeling for them to be sitting next to each other. He could have asked about their families, specifically if Catherine's mom has given her blessing, how difficult it was for Catherine to watch the season, how often they had gotten to see each other, etc. As far as Sean and Catherine, I thought they looked mutually gaga and didn't notice anything amiss about their body language other than Sean looking embarrassed about crying.

I see that Des is still getting use to her new hair style...

And how cute that he teared up watching their proposal. He's gotta get a lot of crap for that but it just showed what a big softie he is.

She looke lovely!

Okay from the elderly and unspoiled who watched with me tonight. Yes my in-laws travelled four hours to have a bachelor party with me! (Kidding they had plans for the week). They saw that Sean pulled Catherine more in their intimate moments during their time in Thailand. Not really very happy that time with parents were short. Upset that Lindsay had to hear Sean placating her. But also saw how poised and in-love the couple seemed during the AFTR. They've seen the giddy and the goofy, they are happy to see that Catherine could be articulate, spontaneous, and eloquent and as real as she was in the show.
