They didn't rush to get married and she moved to Colorado so that they could continue to get to know each other. They settled into a routine of what their life would be. Even Trista has told other couples when brought out for those ATFR that you need to get back to your "normal" to get to really know each other. (Ditto Jason/Molly and look how their relationship started with all the media backlash).

The advantage they had (IMO), is that there was no social media at that time where fans could stalk them and demand information from them. The newer couples would do well to get off of SM and live their lives for them... not their fans.

T/R have taken advantage of the opportunities (wedding and a million $ paycheck for it) that were given to them and I don't fault them for that at all. Even Trista's time on DWTS was after they were married and she was off pretty quickly! I think they have been very smart about things overall.

Sorry for the double post, but there was social media with forums. And the people who were part of the show and family members were for sure posting on them. I don't remember if ABC had a forum, but you know how those got! A breeding ground of stalking/hate. Like with everything new, no one had the 20/20 insight we have now.

However, I think currently, there is a bit of an addiction of constantly having 24/7 info that twitter/insta/snapchat give that wasn't back then.

Most people that I know consider the main SM as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat. Online forums don't even hit their radar as SM. So when I talk about SM, I am not talking about online forums.

All IMHO.

On the first season? That's interesting. Thanks for the answer. I think I started there too and another forum got created due to it.

Fun. One of my coworkers will be competing in Denver too. She's a beast.

I've never heard of that show, but I would certainly watch it if I can. I just love Ryan, he's such a sweetie, loving Dad, husband and spends a lot of time with his kids doing outdoor activities.

We called the forum on ABC the "motherboard." I was on it for a couple of years, and IIRC ABC yanked it. There were some great posters on it, and also some horrible people.

We scattered; some to FORT, some to bachchat. Love Me and Sanlee were on FORT and broke away and started this forum in 2011. They invited many of us to join here. And we did, and we are glad.

It's sort of a crossfit-type thing. Various people compete to do a crazy obstacle course in a short amount of time. I don't watch it (minus clips on occasion), but people take it REALLY REALLY seriously and there is now like really specific training that goes towards trying to beat it.

@kimberlyg Thanks. It sounds right up Ryan's alley!
