Re: Bachelor 19 - Carly Waddell - Discussion

Carly describes the weirdest date ever. Jade says "Call me weird but I kinda would've been into that date"

In an ideal Bachelor world I would have preferred to see Carly on the Cinderella date instead of Jade.

Me too. Carly deserves better... Jade, don't care.

I don't necessarily think that insecurity is a deal breaker for the Bachelorette. I would say that both Ashley Hebert and Desiree had their own major insecurities. Ashley didn't think that she was pretty or amazing enough to be the Bachelorette, and that they guys just wanted to win, but not necessarily be with her; Desiree felt like she had always been the one to love more, and had never received that love back. Also, considering how unnecessarily over-confident our last Bachelorette was, I don't know if that's the direction I would them to continue to go in.

I agree! So far, we have seen Carly (and even Britt) open up about past relationships. From what I've read here, there hasn't been any of that from Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn did talk a little bit about her most recent boyfriend on the zombie date. His job had him traveling all over the world and she got tired of that life.

Deleted Scene. Carly is a good story teller and hysterical.. laugh out loud

. Me think TPTB gunning her as the next Bachelorette along with Kaitlyn by releasing those deleted scenes.

That was so funny. I like what she said about Jade. That date definitely suited her more than Carly. Poor Carly.

TPTB...pick Carly and piss off RS!

I feel the same way. I think she would do OK as Bachelorette. She'd have to grow some backbone, however, so TPTB don't destroy her.

I am sure we'll see more of Carly! This deleted scene was great. Shows that all the girls in the house really like her and that she can tell a captivating story. If I see more of this Carly and less of the insecure Carly, I would be fine with her as Bachelorette. She has that fun loving, girl next door charm.

I am all on board for Carly for the next Bette...but, then I felt the same way about her brother and look where that got me. I'm sure he schooled her well before she went on the show and she has been doing really well thus far. Of all the possible choice we have, I think she has the right mix of sincerity, vulnerability and goofiness.

I loved how they kept panning to Whitney's face as Carly was talking about what they had to do during the date. Britt just had the fish face the whole time.

Right now I think Carly is the best option they have. I think she's very pretty and she has a great sense of humor not to mention she's a trouper. Becca seems nice but she seems so low key plus we haven't gotten to know her so far. I like Kaitlyn but don't get the feeling she's even in the discussion. I can't see them choosing Britt after the shower/socks stuff last night.

MVMom39forever wrote:Carly is adorable and spunky.. perfect for Bachelor in Paradise...but not Bachelorette. Too insecure!! We only saw Ashley and Desiree insecurities come out during their season not in season like Carly. She is coming across sweet but also too needy and emotional. I don't think guys would know what to do with that.

I love Kaitlyn and need to see more of Becca before I cast my 'Ette vote. Those two are only ones from this season on my short list.

Carly reminds me a lot of Ashley, we also saw Ashley very insecure about her body on the F6 date where he had to pose in the bikini next to Chantal and MM, both well endowed women my nature or doctor.

I think Carly could get the same find a real true love edit as Ashley did.

I would rather her than Kelsey or Britt. I think I would enjoy Kaitlyn more, just because I love her snark.

Becca is my favorite this season, but I don't trust TPTB to not destroy her especially with the virgin story line.

TRUE this. Vulnerability and compassion is great quality to watch..

Mura, our favorite F2 was quite impressed with Ms. Carly Monday night, if he doesn't find something with the F2 this season then maybe the assume F6, who is also from a good Catholic family?
