Episode 8 - 5/28 - Ready For Love - Discussion - Spoilers

Tarryn was rude to our adorable Matt, so I was happy to see her go. Have to agree with Allie, Tarryn is rude. Why did she attack Matt? Loved all his comebacks though.

ps.. it's on itunes now.

Here's how 8 weeks of this nonsense finally breaks down:

Ben = Virgin
Ernesto = Exec. Producer
Tim= Ex-wife take 2.

I love reality tv. You can not make this stuff up.
Shark has officially been jumped.

Was it worth staying up?

grace, how do I find it on itunes. I don't go on there much other than for my music for videos. Is there a direct link. Thanks

This has little to do with today's episode, but I need to say something:
I was able to watch entire Shandi's interview on Afterbuzz today (since yesterday it kept blocking) and she gave some really good tips on life.

But there was one thing she said, that I always wanted to write about here, when reading some of you saying how the editing changes the characters.

It's true that they can edit a story around you, take words out of context, show the glimpses and looks that weren't directed at the certain person, but they cannot take something that is not there.

With that said, I trust my feelings, observations, deeper understanding of character and beliefs that everyone has good sides of their personality.

Though, I don't take back what I've wrote about Kari, who has proven (me) many times with her behavior to be selfish in a relationship, something I don't think can fit with Ben's personality, or about Christina, who was complete opposite of what Tim was looking for.

All the other girls have shown great qualities and also some negative habit or traits (in comportment) that made them more related and closer to the audience.
With the exception of Sara, who never revealed any negative side or said nothing bad/harsh about the other contestants (apart from immaturity talk about Jenna), which consequently some people can not relate to her because of that and understandably so, even if she is this great, lovely, nice and kind person that we appreciate her to be. Sometimes it's the flaw that makes a person interesting and it has nothing to do with how amazing their soul is.
The similar problem is with Angela's portray, who probably in alignment with her true character, she was guarded, closed, calm, poised, perfectly composed while still positive, kind, honest and respectful, but we never saw her other side or anything that would mess that picture, so to the audience she appears boring, not excited, serious and stiff.
I'm sure both ladies have some characteristics in personalities that we haven't seen and some were edited out (like funny, sexy parts), but what I was able to see usually didn't leave me curious or intrigued. That declared, I still think they are both amazing girls, that I would love to see them happy and in love and could definitely be friends with.

Speaking for myself, what Ben said to Allie is that he feels her affection but he's not sure she can meet other needs. I assume it's lack of education? Personally, I feel Angela's stepdad puts a red flag out there comparing her hymen to an unopened box of crackers.
He's saying no experience is better than experience. Also, her mother wasn't allowed to speak.

Is there a way to "like" a person's post without quoting it? Thanks

Unforntunately no, you have to quote it. We have a bunch of fun "sign" smiley's you can use. :yougogirl: :youdaman: LOL ... or you can just write ITA (I totally agree). I like that idea though, I wish forumotion would offer it.

ha ha.. love the emoticons.
I can't believe I got addicted to this show and it got yanked so I'm trolling these forums! With the normal bachelor shows I watch the last 2-3 weeks so I don't get too crazy!

Very well said!

Tarryn was rude to our adorable Matt, so I was happy to see her go.

I havent watched yet, but I have found to her to be kind of coarse, so I'm not shocked to read this.

Whoa. Alba stabs Shandi in the back on the way out. Yowsa...

Details please....
