Bachelorette 10 - Andi Dorfman - Episode 4 - Mon June 2/14 *Spoilers & Sleuthing* - Discussion

Eddie Haskell...how I would love to strangle him with my pearls!! 
The only cast person that annoys me this season is Meandi! The guys seem ok for the most part. 
M--(Emily) hope never to see her on my tv again.

I'm not very sweet, can definitely be a straight-talking jerk, and also often nice and a very loyal friend, and I have friends (am liked) and have had a happy marriage and life. There's someone for everyone. I have to cut these Leads a break, as I do think it's a really hard job to have producers egging you to make Better TV, and feeling horrible about individuals being sent home, and "acting" etc. I was so hard on Ashley and her Broken Picker, and her post-show life is normal and she found a guy who adores her. The older I get the less judgmental I feel.

Unfortunately, he was also TPTB's wet dream.  Even if Andi realized at epi 3 that she and Eric weren't going anywhere they wanted him around.  I am sure they had dreams of Eric as the perfect bachelor.  It would take something like their confrontation for TPTB to let Andi let him go.  If he hadn't spoken up, I think Eric would have been top 5, maybe even top 4, since I think Andi already had a top 3 with the 4th not mattering to her.  I don't think Eric not having seen the show realized this and wanted that great girl he first connected to.  Unfortunately, to me that was the actress, not the girl we are seeing now.  That was the girl we can all be on a first date, especially with a guy who we feel is so much cuter or better than us..

I cut you post because I just wanted to address this part. I agree that Andi can act the part when all is going well but, as we get more into the filming I think more of the real Andi will come out. The more tired, under stress she gets...the less she will be able to keep up the front and her true nature will come out. This applies to all of them. You can fake it and play nice only so long...

TPTB sucks taking him on a date through the places he played with his brother he just lost.

If you are going to be on this show , it's imperative to lie on your application.  
If you are afraid of heights, tell them you are claustrophobic.  If you are afraid of swimming in deep water, tell them you are afraid of heights. I'm serious.  If you played at the ocean with your deceased sibling, tell them you went skiing in Vermont together for 20 years.   I've said this before and it really is good advice.  Future contestants: protect yourselves. Dont give them ammunition with which to hurt you or scare you.

My application would say I have a deadly fear of chocolate and diamonds.

Well, in fairness, Dylan didn't have to go on the show this time, he could have waited. He had to have realized that the show would bring up his siblings' tragedies.
Sometimes talking about things like this, helps process it. If it was handled tastefully and it seems so at this point, he may have even gotten some good out of sharing with Andi.
What keeps loved ones that have passed on "alive" is being able to talk about them. Most people aren't comfortable around that, so it is healing to have a listening ear.

I went through something very similar to Dylan and had to be my mom's rock as well.  He may have wanted a chance to get away and not think about it all the time and to be drowning in it all the time.

I wanted to hug him the whole time he was talking.

ITA...what a terrible tragedy to experience. I think it helped him to talk to Andi about it. It helped her to understand where he was coming from. He is a sweet guy!

Nick reminds me of Jef also. Not looks, but personality. A bit quirky, genuine, well spoken. I know all won't agree….but that's OK!!

It's so interesting because now that I've seen people mention the similarities, I can definitely see why people compare Nick and Jef... especially personality wise. Yet for some reason, I was very attracted to Jef and I'm not attracted to Nick at ALL... It's so funny how that happens! I guess I'm not very consistent with my "type" because this season I have a huge crush on Josh

UGGGHHHH please don't put Jef and Nick in the same sentence haha I will admit i loved jef on emilys season but after they broke up he got so UGLY (more in a personality sense) - Nick is way nicer and more normal than Jef... but they both have cool style haha thats all i hope is similar.
