So funny I can't see her with Brooks anymore...she and Chris looks great together! Hope they work out...I think they are rushing things a bit but I wish them luck!

to those of you who stayed away from the spoilers (or knew about it but chose not to believe it), what were the "clues" that made you think Chris maybe F1?

me was the huge amount of confessionals that he was getting since ep 2. Like he would elaborate what happened between them every episode :cutesmile!:

also during the MTA, when the bloopers were being shown (Chris screaming at JP in the football stadium), Des just lit up with a genuine smile
The spoilers were strong no doubt since it was improbable that so many sources could be misled my MF & Co. However one turning point for me was that one of the producers, Elan Gale sent out the following tweet on July 8th which I thought was direct ding at RS and the multiple spoiler sources and that's when I started believing more in the love story that was actually played out on screen between Des and Chris

My sources tell me that you're making up your sources

That's a good one to add to our SMH list of obvious clues!! I am just glad to have enjoyed Chris & his journey with Des all season long and really thankful that Fleiss showed us SO MUCH.

For those of you new to the Chres love story, ep 3 & 4 are must-see ... even though Chris does not technically have one-on-one date.

Ep 4 - some of my favorite scenes!
Chris made her laugh so much during his Mr. America stint on high heels and his long, lean, muscular body ... yum! He shared his first poem during evening portion of group date ... and they seemed to be away from other guys plus had extended amount of uninterrupted time. Chris poem literally made her teary eyed and she pulled him in with both hands for a kiss. I just thought right there ... she's a goner! And, then at cocktail party they had fantastic exchange - so sweet - saying that they were not in each other's friend zone as they held hands with both hands and once again kissed with her pulling his neck into her.

Ep 3 - standout Chris
Ep 3 Chris was studly star of dodgeball. He never gloated or boasted...just laser focused. We later heard that Chris took her aside and showed her how to throw on this group date. On ep 3 group date he also stole her away to roof and something had to have happened special up there as they both brought it up multiple times (HTD sketch, LCD plus ATFR). Again, extended alone time together away from everyone - no interruptions! And, I loved Chris ITM when Brooks returned from finger injury and Chris made that funny comment about Brooks being "so good, so charming." Chris was just so good natured about it but not jealous. Ep 3 date ends with Des & Chris slow dancing to private concert and making out while someone (Zak??) sadly looked on.

Over episodes 3 & 4 viewers (and Des!) saw many sides of Chris ... all before he even had his one on one date in ep 5 and boy o boy, Chris didn't disappoint! Super athletic, great sportsman/team player, a friend of all the guys, funny/able to laugh at himself, creative, romantic and goofy. We also knew that Des was into him and that they had great chemistry and really shared similar interests. And, it just got better and better all season as his strong, supportive & gentlemanly ways shined through! << Sigh >>

OMG .. I am gushing once again about this guy who I've never met and I am happily married mother of two old enough to be Chris mother. Yikesy. So thanks for letting me re-live my Chris obsession on my lunch break. Back to work for me.

I don't remember us discussing that clue. Interesting. So glad the edit and all the clues didn't turn out to be misdirection, because that would really be discouraging to even try to figure out the ending in the future.

when I was watching Des' and Chris' overnight date and how they were in the helicopter and hearing the music in the background this came into my mind:

weren't they playing the same music...in the background...

I've never seen Ashley's season but wow!, it was was very obvious that they had great chemistry. They could barely keep their hands off each other. And JP was obviously madly in love with her. And she him. I love their conversations. No awkwardness whatsoever.

Can someone post Des and Chris FD? I'd like to compare.

Is this what you are looking for?

Do you guys think we should have a video thread for their love story from start to finish seeing that a lot of folks missed out on this and also incorporating the segments that MVMom noted that are not full dates. That way folks that visit their fan thread can watch all the videos just like Serenity has the final dates embedded above.

I think we would have to ask permission from San and Love me to do this but throwing it out as an idea if everyone agrees. Maybe Mura can also weigh in when she is able to start posting again.

by DKWillis Thu Aug 08, 2013 6:46 pm

Just as l was sending mine mercieme posted similiar so great minds think alike. Sorry for double post

Just throwing this out for opinions. If l could make a suggestion to mods or elected talented people who can embed videos what would u think of a new thread dedicated to Des/Chris own mini season from start to finish. Starting at M&G out of the limo - Proposal - ATFR. l think that would be so neat to watch ea one, 1 after the other of all ep they were in together (similiar to the above) Just a suggestion thou.
