Holy chit!! this is the best love story I have ever seen, because it's real! I was trying to relay the significance of this season to DH ... this. never. happens. It's never in our faces like this. These two hit each other like a ton of bricks. To be honest, I sense a certain amount of sadness between these two when I watch them. There is so much yearning to get their uninhibited feelings out in the open and it's so obvious. It makes me the viewer feel almost bad for them! It's like a forbidden love at the moment. Can't wait to see how these two act with everything out in the open. Holy moly!!

I said that a few times before the season started! I even said I would work on following the edit, yeah screw that! As soon as JP stepped out of that limo my detachment to Ash and her love stepped out somewhere too and never returned

... and after watching those Ashley-Chrystie battles, which really weren't that bad (just wait until she makes JP cry!... that is when all the rage will begin), this season is resembling this swinging sixties chestnut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J54ZIMw9-uk

Ben is forced to play Count Paris' role.

I'm thinking Chrystie's appearance at ATFR is both to officially give her blessing to the couple, and to keep all of the women in America from hating her for making JP cry!! :giggle:

Yeah, Chrystie is going to be hated for a bit there...she's a tough cookie though.

Yep, it seem she has realized she was wrong and they have moved past this. That is all that really matters. Forgiveness is a great thing.

Bam, JP looking like a model, walks out of that limo.."no gimmicks, me and my smile"...then the cupcake story inside, he hooked me bigtime. I started to watch just to see him, still didn't give a dang about Ashley (at that time). Then when I saw her glow around JP and the connection (despite the smokescreen called BNB), I started to really like her, thought she was a sweet girl. And that only increased every week.

Now I totally adore this couple. I love more together than apart - if that makes any sense. I love that they are a 'we' now and the love is so in our face, they just cannot hide it.

This will be the best FRC and AFRC and media tour for me of any couple frome this show. I fell in love with them, while they were falling in love with each other. Best.Ending.Ever

I wasn't excited about this season initially. JP was not even my type physically.... but he had me at cupcake. Right from that first night (unspoiled) I felt that connection with Ashley. Then his rock solid, emotionally intelligent personality and charm sold me. I am so looking forward to this FRC. Last year, even though I liked Roberto, I was bawling my eyes out because of CL (remember the rainbow after Ali ousted him?)
This season I'll be crying tears of joy!

Same for me. Last year I was very sad for Chris because his story so touched me (although I am happy now because he has a much better match in Peyton) but this year I have totally bought in to the JP/Ashley match and will be sooooo happy. danceround Cannot wait for MTA and the Finale/ATFR special!!! 2pop

JP will help rehabilitate her image, because he justifies her actions at the AFRC, by saying he understood and would have done the same for his brother and he gave sis a big hug onstage. What a gem and gentleman he is. He defended Ashley over BNB and said he understood and now he defends her sister for basically being rude and ill mannered to him. Amazing guy.

I agree with you, JP will help rehabilitate her image. Sure says something about his parents for raising such an amazing son, doesn't it?

It seems like the Rosenbaums are rock-solid, stable, loving people. JP's mom was so sweet to Ashley.

I'm so happy for Ashley that she will get to be a part of this wonderful, loving family!!

So true, and when JP told Ashley on the FD that his family loves her and his dad said she would be a welcome addition to the family, her eyes lit up and I thought she was about to cry, so was so happy. Didn't she say back "really"? ~ with a huge smile.

I agree with you all 100%. Ashley will have the whole family to be her rock and provide stability to her.

I am so in the group that were not expecting to get into this season. After the burn of last season (looking back, best thing to ever to happen to Chantal laugh out loud

) I wasn't sure I was going to even watch Ash as the Bacheorette. But ending up giving it a try, like I always do. So glad I did! JP is a gem! and Jash has the most real love story I've ever seen come from this show. heartbeat

Chrystie will redeem herself. She loves her some Team Cupcake now. :cc4:
