JMHO 

I haven't watched every season, but I don't recall most saying that to all 3. If they said it at all it was was to 1. Personally, if he'd of picked me and I was watching that back with him, I'd be questioning everything.

Agree notarose.

At least looks that way now.  

Another thing that bothers me is that he's "falling in love" with all of them and telling them so!

That is bothersome that he told all of the women that, but I bet he will reconcile that by saying something along the lines that he was "falling in love" with all of them, but ultimately determined that he was only "in love" with his F1.

We have seen this script before.

Who's more active on social media - Becca or Whit?

Whether true or not, the 25 or so candidates in order to be there for the "right reasons" should be a)ready to relocate b) ready to commit. Simple premise. 
So when the journey is coming down to the wire at the MTP/LCD date, there should no longer be a question for the main as to whether or not the remaining cast will relocate or commit. If there is---red flag. 
If the main is not totally sold on the cast person for whatever reason, but that person is willing to do both of the givens--another red flag. 
So this is Chris' dilemma that is being painted to the audience . Whitney is willing to do the 2 givens, but is Chris sold on her? Becca is not all in at this point right before the FRC, so this is her issue. 
Now the audience is left to figure out what is the real issue vs what we are being sold.

Great point.

Becca is

I so agree w/you.  If Britt is chosen as the bachelorette, then she will be one of the first leads that had trouble getting along with others in the house.

Wrong. Ali was hardly well liked in the house.

You mean, she's a mere mortal?

I actually thought that what Whitney said was an honest appraisal, delivered without a nasty tone to it. Remember that Whitney at this point has spent a lot more time with Becca than Chris has. She stated what she thought but without a real tone of malice to it.

I also think that his agonising just proves he's really into Becca. If he wasn't then he would've just sent her home. And if he was already sure about Whitney, then Becca would have been the easy choice to take to F2, since she wouldn't be as heartbroken. No, he was terrified because he knows that he'll just keep falling even harder for Becca and then she might break his heart. He thought about letting her go so he could focus on the other two who say they're sure without her being there to distract him, but he just couldn't. Even when he was talking to CH about her he said that he thinks Becca will get there eventually, but "maybe that's wishful thinking". His face when he said that said it all to me. He really wishes she would fall in love so he could pick her without hesitation.

Becca looked really cute with her hair in a bun BTW. Whitney on the other hand looked awful at the rose ceremony. She looked like the other girls' mother. :hidingchair

Mindless -- Funny you used the expression "mother" to describe Whitney's appearance at the RC. That is exactly the word Chris used about her on Ellen DeGeneres' show.

BTW this may just be my observation, but I have seen Whitney several times during the season with a nasty face on. I think she is capable of sarcasm and when she is upset she makes no bones about it. I wouldn't want to get in her way when she is angry.

That is why I used it. But seriously, she should never have her hair up, it ages her about 15 years. She also needs to do something about said hair because it looks totally fried. Not trying to be mean, just friendly advice. It was painful to watch all episode for me.

I think the difference is that the show didn't highlight that; they saw her fighting with the "villain" of the show (Vienna), but didn't really show her getting arguments with the well-liked girls on the show or being bad-mouthed by them. If I'm remembering incorrectly, let me know!

I got the same Vibe from her too and imo she doesn't have a soft face.  She talked incessantly during her date last night and it looked like Chris couldn't even get  a word in.  It's almost as if she just talks and talks and doesn't care or is not aware what the other person thinks of what she's saying. My brain hurt listening to her talk and her voice is another thing. Obviously, I don't know her but this is how she comes across to me onscreen.
