Still want them to work out :bigsmile: I want to be wrong and believe in him. I wish I saw him when he was a contestant on the Bachelor

though.

You mean the Bachelorette? Some videos are still in youtube. Just search Emily Sean Bachelorette and you'll some dates. The hometown date is still there.

I want them to work out too. However they probably just need to put showbusiness a break. Which is probably hard for Sean cause you don't know his gameplan after showbiz. Go back to furniture making? I doubt it. But I see them marrying more than I see them breaking up. If they get married, they have no choice but to really work it out.

The guy is a politician. He is hitting two birds in one stone. Three birds actually.

Getting voted for one more week.
Getting ooohs and aaaahhs and tap on the back from SeanCat fans saying he is the perfect gentleman and Catherine is lucky!
That 'honoring' CAtherine was a big distraction from his dance that totally tanked.

At least Andy Dick has rhythm and was totally on point in his solo. Didn't miss a beat and honored his daughter.

Honoring someone is like a prayer, you dont show and shout it in public. You show it through your actions, in the moments where just you and her are there.

For someone like Sean the real test is, is he going to do the same without the cameras, even without the reward of fans fawning over him for being the 'perfect gentleman' and fiance.

What is important to him is his image. Of being seen as the perfect guy. But his actions completely betray what his words always declare. This has been his MO in the Bachelorette, in the Bachelor and after all these shows.

Exactly. Before his Access Hollywood interview today, he said 40 something Kit is 'smoking hot', just like he did Catherine at the FSD in Thailand. During the show, Kit said she couldn't keep her eyes off Peta saying she's gorgeous and asked Sean if he was attracted to her! I suppose Kit must find Catherine plain looking in comparison. They liked that Sean kissed her after his solo but made fun of how he held her head back. There were no questions about their plans and relationship post Bachelor. Although Peta did say she had a very good relationship with Sean.

Lol ... I assume by the bolded quote you think Bill Gates writes code for Microsoft and Jack Welch assembled washing machines for GE when he was the CEO? Sean is co-owner of a company that creates custom, high-end furniture pieces for retail sales; his "furniture making" consists of contracting with actual furniture craftsmen to produce custom pieces based on client's desires. Apparently getting details and facts correct aren't a strong point of this forum, similar to how what Sean and Catherine actually say doesn't really mean much to the regular posters over here. I get it, sceptics are welcomed here, but why not just say "I'm a sceptic" and leave it at that instead of taking half-truths, rumors, and just downright falsehoods and using them to "validate" an opinion already formed?

Who knows what Sean and Catherine decide to do? Maybe Sean doesn't return to the business of running a company (IMO a noble pursuit by the way); however, I have little doubt that whatever they decide to do, it will be because they feel it is in their best long-term interest. Nothing they've done to this point has indicated anything but to me. You and I may have chosen a different route, but fortunately I don't get to decide what's in Sean and Catherine's best interest, that's their prerogative.

Custom, high end furniture? Have you seen it? And I believe the craftsman (singular) is his buddy. We aren't talking high style here, in my opinion. And anyone can start a business. I don't think Sean's has been going for more than a year. Before that he was selling insurance.

Sean and Cat will make it or not, regardless of any of our opinions, but all opinions are welcome here, I believe.

None of us get to decide what is in Sean and Catherine's best interest except themselves. The posters here, some who are skeptics, are just sharing their opinion in a respectful manner. No one is spouting falsehoods or spreading rumors, most are speculations.

Yes, I've "seen" it, have you? And by "seen" I don't mean "looked at a picture on a website." I stand by my post. I'm sure you're also aware that furniture is but one part of their business? And again, I'm not going to disparage the small businessmen of this country, I think they deserve our respect

Do you guys ever wonder if Sean chose Desiree or Ashlee, would he even dare think of DWTS?

I'm sure Emily will never even hear it. That woman knows she should come first (that's what I like about her).

I could never see her, seating in the sidelines cheering for whomover.

Would Brad even think of rubbing legs with Peta, if he was still with Emily?

Sean really lucked out with Catherine really. Very few women would want

to be outshone by someone like Peta or anyone.

The obvious answer is YES. If Sean's as selfish as some of you believe, then he would have done DWTS even if he ended up with Des or Ashlee. Uhm Emily? She would be doing the show with him.

Not getting involved in the conversation other than I don't know why anyone would feel sorry for Catherine. She's in love and having an adventure. She's spending a lot of her time pursuing career opportunities and appears to be enjoying herself. She also has friends in the area. They do have a real relationship even with DWTS. Most couples have to work so him spending 8 hrs training is no different. They still have evenings together and have even managed a couple of weekend trips.

Not feeling sorry for Catherine, just having reservations, that's all. Meanwhile, I'll call it a real relationship once they get married. :Smiley:

Do you feel that way about all the other past couples that didn't get married? All those were FAKE relationships then?

I would not call them fake but failed relationships. I never watched The Bachelor prior to this season, but the goal of the show as I understand it is for the couple to get married. So if a Bach couple splits before marrying, then their relationship failed.

That's interesting. A relationship that isn't real can fail? The opposite word identified with "real" is usually fake or false, not fail.

Also, bogus, false, phony, sham, unauthentic, unreal. Meanwhile, other words for real are genuine, authentic, true, honest, etc.

I see, so past couples that didn't get married fall under bogus, false, phony, sham, unauthentic, unreal. Like you said, it's only real/genunine/authentic/true/honest once they get married. Got it.
