A joke about Dylan? What did he say? Maybe I don't really want to know....how could he make any kind of joke about Dylan? I would guess it wasn't very funny.

He made some joke about the only thing that could be more dead (boring date) is another one of Dylan's family members being hit by a train. Or something like that. Really crass.

What's wrong with these people?!? How could anybody think that was at all funny or appropriate?

He reminds me of the boy next door type, like a Jason Mesnick. I liked that he was too afraid to kiss her b4 the RC.

He did more in his life than most people could ever do and appearing on the Bachelorette was likely just another one of those things he checked of a list. I am sure he did not really have any issue with her after he left, and went about doing his usual worldly adventures. If I were to guess, he does not seem to be the kind that would want people to take pity on him and sit sulking about this in his honor. I doubt that very much.

Elphaba (I'm a Wicked fan too!), Welcome to the forum. I like to read everyone's opinions here - I sometimes see things from a different point of view when someone points out something I hadn't thought of. The point of view I was coming from was Andi. My post had nothing to do with Eric. I agree that Eric probably would not want people taking pitty on him, which I certainly don't. I think he was an honorable, kind, genuine, caring, laid-back kind of person - drama-free. Andi on the other hand, to me, showed a complete lack of character and empathy when discussing Eric in that last 10 minute segment. She is an accomplished young woman who has a lot going for her, but her reaction to Eric and the aftermath with the other guys was way over the top. For personal reasons, I am very much against people yelling at each other. I don't have much respect for condescending, drama-filled aggressive people who have no empathy or insight into what someone else might be feeling or going through. She could have easily said she regretted the way things ended, but she minimally discussed him, and it was all about her. She's now getting a taste of what JPG went through in that the media and the public can build you up as easily as they can tear you down.

Exactly what I've been saying. When did yelling at people, let alone people you barely know, become acceptable behavior?

LOL let me get this straight Ashley R is saying its easy to tell who Andi likes? Wasn't she the one who looked like a complete fool over Bentley. Oh how quick they forget.

I don't see what one has to do with the other and yes, it's easy to tell who she likes.

Yeah I didn't particularly care for either Ashley' s tweets last night, I don't follow any bachelor alumnis they start getting too full of themselves IMO.

Ali was the only one who was supportive. She said she liked how Andi "tells it like it is"

But she made such a gigantic thing of JaunP on his season - Karma is a bitch. What goes around comes around. I have no sympathy for her.

That is exactly what I thought watching it. The irony was so great it was crazy watching it. You could see her shut down the moment she realized there was (perceived) criticism. Eric did not read the rule book - the lead can talk about you not opening up and being real all they want, but you can not call them on the same behavior.

My phone keeps auto correcting from Andi to And I.
