Excellent points Longhornfan!

I don't know where Chris stands as far as religion. However you're right, I wonder what the topic of discussion was. I would think that if he needed advise on media attention, he could get that from anyone. However the topic of abstaining certainly would be up Sean's alley.



Exactly. This topic came up awhile ago. Why couldn't the F2 be the next 'ette if they are edited in a favourable manner, is a fan favourite, are appreciative of the experience, no crying, no fakeness for something that ended 4 months ago. The F2 on Bach Canada was very sensible and admitted, that it was an obvious connection between TB and his F1. She had a normal funny ATFR sit down which is so much better than watching drama. In most cases they are so over it. Why do they need a broken hearted person to be the next 'ette. It isn't necessary. IMO

About Sean contact: all great reasons above. Adding Sean was on DWTS so that could be in the future AND/OR Sean is the only Bach to have married his F1.

F2 as next Bachelorette: I think if fans like her a lot then it is more possible. Agree, she doesn't have to be seen as heartbroken (or a "victim") and given all the SM contact between the girls this season I think there is a real possibility of F2 being the next lead. Fans are seeing all this Twitter love, especially between Becca, Carly, and Kaitlyn (they seem to have been a close threesome) but Whitney is in there as well. (She was closest with different girls but appeared liked by everyone except perhaps Ashley I). Actually even the "villians" had friends this season which is great.

Has an F2 been the next lead in the past?

I know Trista and Jason were both F2 . I know RS is saying that the schedules have changed and they can't do it , but I don't agree. If they can make Emily the Lead and she was the winner then I'm sure TPTB can figure it out for Becca and same for Josh. jmo

Ben was F2

With b-ette, it's a matter of days (regardless of the fact that it's been 4 months at least since "heartbreak". I do think that tptb , in the course of 4 months, can figure out how to get the filming done that they need to do in the time period they have, particularly if the f2 wasn't overly heartbroken- and Becca seems to be level- headed and there's nothing we've seen so far that shows her to be hyper-emotional and likely to have a huge breakdown at AFR. So we will see.

Becca and Chris had a very romantic date and they really seem to get along well. In all seriousness, I don't like to make a big deal out of the "virgin" thing, but you can tell intimacy is an issue with Becca. This is not good or bad and it's not something to be judged, but as far as her relationship with Chris goes, so far, it's an issue. She's not comfortable with her sexuality and she is nervous and slightly uncomfortable in intimate situations with Chris. She did relax towards the end of the date and gave him a very sweet kiss. Becca is a good girl and Chris seems to really like her.

If they film BIP before Bachelorette that extends the timeline for all candidates.

We saw how nervous Becca was when thinking about kissing Chris so I find it hard to picture what she's do if she had 25 guys to deal with. I like her but just don't think it would be good for her to be the Bachelorette.

We can look at pretty much anything and have some of it point to Becca and others Whitney (or sometimes even the same thing) but without further info I don't see how to prove any of it. I'm still leaving towards Whitney being the f1 but that could change.
