Re: Tim Lopez - Ready For Love - Spoilers - Thread #3

[tigertiz]

Also, as much as I like the cute local girl for Tim, you can count me in as someone who would be delighted to see it be Hailey instead.

Word. Sadly it's not to be. She's my favorite contestant on the whole show (male or female.)

Now it's over 9 months, so yeah, whoever made it so far, with all the "low-profile" relationship rules, has a will to give it a try, because as soon the veil drops and they can live "the normal" life, that's when the actual "work" starts and only then can they think of all the lovey-dovey things.

Maybe Tim and his F1 are still together because they are able to have a quasi-normal relationship. I'm sure if he did pick Jenna she has slept over a few times (or practically lives there already), go for a ride on his bike, go out on the lake with his closest friends, order in food together, etc. They are probably in their own little safe bubble, surrounded by close friends and Jenna's family who are all keeping the secret. Given the track record of the Bachelor franchise and long distance usually as the reason for the break ups, it's just easier for me to believe Tim is making it work with the local girl and not the one who lives over a thousand miles away.

With that said, I know there was some talk of Hailey moving to Austin, any word of Sara heading south? There's only two weeks left until Tim and whoever can be together. After 10 months I would expect they would want to be together as quickly as possible.

Beb, I've penciled you in my calendar.

I've enjoyed the dissection with you and look forward to more.

FWIW, I think the editors of RFL should not add this show to their resumes. As an prospective employer, it would be a huge red flag to me.

Why does Sara have to sell their relationship on Twitter and Facebook. IMO it seems so controlling and desperate or she is not F1.

What a beautiful family Tim comes from, that's so important and rare these days! #family #love [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Agree! She's so blantant about it, as is her family...if she was F1 it's so overboard and if not F1 a lot weird!

What's she saying by it being so rare these days, that most families are ugly? LOLOL Just kidding about that . I believe she meant beautiful as in how they are and love, BUT I still want to take a little offense to that, too coz I don't find my family as being rare and they are beautiful.. and it's always been important for them to show their love ... I find this post to be a little butt kissing. If you know what I mean... Shaking my head!!!

LOL, yeah. I'm sure she didn't mean anything by it...they've been married a long time, that's getting more rarer these days. You see so many broken families and those that don't even care for their own kids or spouse, it's nice when you do see it and experience it.

Up above with my post I didn't mean her family has been as blantant like Sara has, but her mom has said a few things that made me go hmmm.

I knew you weren't talking about her family, Lost. I knew what you meant. : ) BTW I was being silly with my post. I thought I would just crack a joke this morning... I more or less knew she meant they loved each other and had been married for so long and I agree that is rare and getting rarer as time passes. Some people just don't treat their families as they did years ago and it is nice when you see somebody like Tim's parents that are still so in love after all those years...

What lyrics to a song? I missed that? I could see him agreeing to that for that reason though. I will say he has said a few things to lead her on if she's not the F1. Sometimes, I even consider that she is a plant if he chooses no one.

Just to be clear, I am talking about the general public viewing the show. To them, they would be thinking Sara is the F1. We make up a small percentage.

Here is a tweet from Jenna's friend to her. Would she joke about it, if Jenna was not the F1?

Jenna Reeves ‏@imaJENNAtion_ 6h
Phew! Safe for another week! “@ccottington: @imaJENNAtion_ you had me worried for a minute.”

Grace the song about him being in reverse or something like that. Made me think that he knew he wasn't going to be doing a lot of kissing and he said he'd slowed down so much he felt like he was in reverse or something like that. Help me out here ladies, I have an old mind. LOL I think the lyrics may be in this thread. I know I saw it in one of the RFL's.

No, I don't see the friend joking if Jenna weren't the F1. That could be painful and would be hurtful unless she just didn't know if Jenna was F1 or not and I can't see her close friends not knowing esp if Jenna has been seen in the same places as Tim has since the show wrapped up.. How long has the time been between filming and now of this show. Seems like I remember somebody saying close to 8 months? If so WOW! .

Even with it being as long as it has been, I know that many of Sara's closest friends do not know if she was chosen.

docnash, Oh yeah...you have the inside track...what's the latest status of the intel? You were leaning toward her NOT being f1 right?

[noobsleuth]

Likewise Litta...as always. It will be a good lesson for me any way it turns out. If it's Jenna, it will all make perfect sense. If it's not, jeeeezzz...I would like to request a post-mortem with you so we can dissect and untangle the whole ugly mess.

:WAVEY: I want in on this too! We can make a new thread called "WTH happened!?!?" However, we would have to then create a subsequent, self help, thread entitled "I must be a sadist, because I continue to dissect this horrible show Anonymous"

Thank goodness the show is over and we won't have to go through it again.

I received one bit of information that led me to believe that she was not the F1 but will say that most people around here believe that she was the one chosen.

Oh, noobs, have I told you how much I love you lately? Once, again...HILARIOUS!

C'mon girls (and guy, Hi Matchmaker!) If Sara is F1, then she's had to endure the 'Jenna Love' on this board for weeks. Put yourself in her shoes. I'd be ready to come out swinging at someone...if she's not F1, then yes, the pics on her FB are a little weird. That's my point.
If she is F1, I would have had ENUFF at this point of everyone on this board saying it's Jenna. ENUFF.

[Beb]

Perhaps she is simply celebrating and sharing her discovery that she was able to love again.

I agree, doc. Sara has made so many statements during the show that reflect a joy about feeling those feelings again...for the first time since she lost her fiance. Knowing that Timmy was sick and doing battle with cancer, she must have lived with a heaviness and state of grief for such a long time. This experience must have given her hope for a happy future...at least, it would me.

So when people wonder why all the Sara positivity towards Tim, their experience on RFL, and Tim's family if she's not F1, I think she could simply be expressing a heart of gratitude. It would be consistent with being a woman of faith and in whom she has put her trust. When someone has been a part of your healing journey, there is a sense of deep gratitude and specialness towards that person -- even if/when it doesn't become more than that. At least, that has been true for me. There are people in my life that have been used to bring significant healing to my soul and heart. We no longer walk side by side in the day to day journey of life; but when I think of them and their impact on me, I become teary eyed. I am eternally grateful for them...and will always remember our time fondly.

Beautiful Litta. Beautiful.

I know, that's why I said yeah...and I totally got what you said! :hug:

From article...
" So, you know, it worked for Tim. He's still with the girl that he met on the show, so. He was really ready for love. It seems to be going strong for him so far, so, we'll see what happens."
