She also cuddled into his chest on their FD after he promised her it's not a competition. And ITA with the bold too, he may think he's "in charge," but he's completely whipped and just spends his time looking at her adoringly. HAHA.

I just rewatched the FD today and this was absolutely my favorite part! Watch his face during that snuggle time.. she puts her head down on his chest and he leans forward and nuzzles her back, and then after a few moments, he just closes his eyes and like, breathes her in. Now that is a man who has completely fallen. And in that moment, it's like you can just watch him let go. *sigh* :hrtbeat:

scene is at 12:49

I briefly saw it during Rookie Blue. I wasn't in the room when it started but I heard Bachelorette and came running. They have a split screen of the guys both on bended knee and saying will you marry me. I don't remember much else, hopefully they'll have it up on ABC tomorrow.

I saw the preview today too. Ben was on the left of the screen on bended knee but you couldn't really see their faces. JP was on the right and you could see a big smile on Ashley's face. They both asked, "Will you marry me?" at the same time. Then it ended Smiley

I saw the preview! Twice! JP is glowing and Ash had such big smile on her face.

This reminds me of last year on FORT when several posters were just sure that Chantal was going to have a meltdown and "ruin" Brad and Emily's happy day. One went so far as to say that Brad should "just shove her in the limo and be done with it".

Chantal, however, handled the situation with grace and cried prettily on her way home.

But I said then and I'll say now, the F2 can scream, cry, and carry on if they feel like it. Rejection hurts.

Maybe it's just a little more surprising or shocking coming from a guy rather than one of the ladies.

Ahhh! I can't wait to see it! I wish the preview was online! When do they usually post it?

Those two dates could not have been more different, Ben-fun and playful, JP-romantic and endearing. There is absolutely no denying what we all saw on the TV...JP was it for her!

Way behind again and this may have been said already, but I think Ben would have the same viewpoint as he did when the show ended. While we have all now seen the show and the difference in the connections I highly doubt that Ben has seen one single episode. Do people really think Ben, who was let go and heartbroken, went home and watched the show? Doubt it. So if he hasn't he would still be talking at the ATFR based on what he knew while filming.

I mostly agree that he probably didn't watch too much of the show, but wouldn't he have had to at least watch a few of the episodes to do his vlogs for his 1-on-1 dates and the commentary on the HTD episode? He must have at least watched some of his dates. I highly doubt he watched any of JP's dates, though.

Agree he watched some of his dates for commentary, but that still wouldn't give him a sense of JP's connection with Ashley.

Diana, or anyone who has seen the commercial, please, what network(s) are showing the commmerical. Only ABC??
I keep missing it too and I really want to see it. TIA

by Diana Fri Jul 29, 2011 12:50 am

ABC. They aired it once during that Misson show or whatever it is, then I saw it again during Rookie Blue Smiley

I'm thinking only ABC will air it, who knows if it'll go online because it tries to make it seem like Ash leaves alone but failed miserably.

Yes, it would only be on ABC. I think I also see them sometimes on Soapnet as that is owned by ABC. Can't be positive though.
