Bachelor 19 - Becca Tilley - #2

I agree with CHO. As long THE LEAD is honest in the limits of the game and respectful in the given situation, I don't blame him/her for whatever choice s-he makes.

That's what it's keeping me from completely trusting the "EDIT" this time.
In last season on Bette we've seen the edit where the F2 was leaded to "believe to be the frontrunner" and the whole SHOW was how "devastating" the "knock back to reality" was.
I doubt they would recreate this scenario (and I don't mean the ending on ATFR).
So, is it completely opposite or just different?

Now I find myself getting sucked into the "Becca is F1" conspiracy. It's interesting how in some seasons one can't believe it, but in others, one can. Anyway, I won't loose any sleep over it either way. I like both girls...so whatever happens, happens.

That's what's different about this season, even though I see it more with Becca and still think she is F1, I would  still be happy for Whit if she was chosen, I think she is such a great lady.

I agree! For the record the necklaces look the same to me.

Ok, just got epi 5 and 6 SC of hand dancing and movements uploaded.  Use, peruse, ignore, etc. as needed/wanted.  

I only put the hand movements in Becca's Pics/SC Sleuthing Thread, with the exception her 1:1 and HTD in the same episode.  There are some mixed in with the normal SC's for her dates in the SC Only thread.  Since not everyone is interested in the hand movements, it may be easier to keep them in separate threads, but let me know if I need to copy them all the the SC only thread for any reason.  

Paging Mura, those are what you wanted, aren't they? If not, let me know what else to look for!

IA but Whitney was always going to be heart broken because she came in half in love with him. Becca on the other hand has been chased by him and for her to completely open her heart only to be let down will be harsh on his part. IMO

My gut keeps telling me Becca is F1. Whitney's edit is not only too obvious, but she seems like the driving force of the relationship and I'm not convinced that is what Chris wants. I think it may actually worry him a bit. The relationship with Becca just seems way more natural and I also think he knows by now or at least heavily suspects that she is a virgin. I mean how could he not suspect it after what her sister told him? If Becca's never had the urge to be close to a man then how would she have had sex? He must know and he seemed more smitten than ever at the end of her HTD, so clearly it's not an issue. Becca's recent SM activity also points to her being in love and I doubt it's with anyone other than Chris at this point, though who knows. I won't be too bummed even if she doesn't get chosen, because she's a rare gem and can do better than Chris.

when she asked what he was looking for? He said, he will know it when it happens. She is a little be too fast for him.

ITA. If she opens up to him and tells him that she is falling in love or loves him and then he dumps her? Ouch. The only way I can see this working out, if she is F2, is for her to not say those words to him. She does look like she is falling for him though. Plus, she was still wearing his birthday gift the day after the FRC.

Very nice! Thanks for doing this!

I just watched the 3 episode when Becca received the rose, wow, it was like deja vue, they were on roof top, and they bonded that night, so he gave her the rose even with Britt on the group date. They were so comfortable with one another.
Des and Chris first bonded on episode 3 and she gave him the rose in that group date even with Brookes on the date, then took him to a one on one concert while every body was waiting.
so, Becca and Chris have been progressing since then.

I agree with the bolded. she was already all in on night one...too bach bubble to be believed. Becca is outside the bubble and feeling real emotions and feelings. More realistic and real just like Chris says a few times. Something about whit's busy lifestyle, I just don't see her settling down in Arlington.

^^^ The bubble sucks you in though. Becca has such a good head on her shoulders that even if she is final 2, I doubt it would take too long for the bubble to burst.

I only see them as friends.
