Haha, same here! It kind of reminds me of Vaughn from Married at First Sight saying he wants someone bubbly and then being driven up the wall by Monet's constant chatter. I'm not convinced Chris can handle bubbly any better, since he seems like an introvert and said himself that he likes to be at home by himself a lot. I can just picture Whitney constantly trying to drag him out of the house to do whatever she's set her mind in and it ain't pretty.

Me three on the bolded. She's exhausting to listen to.

Yes, I agree!  

ETA:  that has been my concern with Whitney since the beginning, has she really given herself time to truly get to know Chris as an individual, not the perfect version of him she already had built up in her mind from watching him last season.

I really loved that date and it seems that Chris did too. There is so much more that they talk about that we never see. I really like Whitney and I think Chris would be lucky to have her....different strokes I guess. Chris says he's looking for a wife and mother for his children, I think she would be very devoted and loyal. Her voice doesn't really bother me.

I was pretty impressed with Chris in Bali. He handled the Becca bombshell perfectly and the Kaitlyn breakup as well as he could have. I'm a big Becca fan and would make an awesome wife. I mean what man wouldn't want a woman who's saving herself? I just can't see Chris and Whitney lasting.

Her voice doesn't bother me at all. I unfortunately have a high squeaky voice. I really try to not let things people can't control bother me. It isn't fair to them. For me it is the amount. She talks all the time and even talks over him. That drives me nuts and is something she can control.

I respect that we all have different opinions and I do think that Whitney has done everything she can to be what Chris had said he wanted. I just don't think she has taken s minute to get to know him and make sure if he is really what she wants. I don't know if that makes any sense of not.

For me I see the growing relationship with Becca being that thing you didn't know you wanted, but at the end of it all you just love that person so you are willing to change what you want.

I always wanted children but biology and life didn't let that happen. When I moved back here to a place I hate to be with my then boyfriend and I was 37 if we were going to have kids it was going to be right away and even then we would have a high probability of defects, etc. I wouldn't care, but my hubby couldn't handle that. He loved me enough to take the chance if I really wanted him too, but at the end of the day I realized that for me love doesn't have to be biological. So I am every other kids favorite "auntie" and I volunteer and help others. So for me, for love I was willing to compromise. Because the most important thing to me is him. The rest is just filler.

Welcome Spencer, glad to see you here. How do you like our Becca?
You tube has their one on one dates.

Hello! I like Becca, but Whitney has grown on me too. Such a great gal for only having a mom and then losing her so early. I still haven't watched this week's episode! I see some links were posted for it.

 Money talks.  If you make it to the last episode you walk away with $350,000.  They get 125,000 just for signing up.

I think he likes that Becca is not a sure thing - the hard to get part and that he has seen her vulnerability in a way and the protective part of him loves that. I think Whitney's radiant positivity with him makes him less interested in a way....or he doesn't see the need to work for it. He should really work for it with Whitney - she is so deserving. If anything I really hope he is working for it now. I"m worried for her...

No, it crossed my mind too.  I don't know what the usual RC line up is, I don't know if Becca in the middle is significant or not??  Didn't sound like their date ended on a good vibe, with her uncertainty about love and Arlington, I just don't see how that's going to change for her in a few days.  Wasn't there some spoiler out there that said TAMMYshe wasn't that into Chris?

It has been asked about Rose ceremony lineup so am putting the ones up for the Bachelor that I do have.  Hope they help.Bachelor 11 and 14 are the only ones that had a F1 standing in the same position as Whitney was.  Other than that, all of the other seasons had the F2 or F3 standing in that spot.  Also, seasons 6, 13, 15, 17 all had the F1 in the correct place(Becca's)












I want to apologize for the quality of the pics. they were all taken from the videos themselves and hope that means that they won't of been switched around and messing with us. At least that's my hopes.


Now with the Bachelorette seasons they seem far less reliable and patterns harder to decifer.

Chris H. Said in a recent blog that Whitney and Chris have unbelievable chemistry. He also said that it is obvious that they deeply care for each other.   But that is one of the few times recently much has been said about her.  I think they are really messing with the edit and creating that angst with the fans.

Becca has great qualities too, but why in the world would she want Chris?  His lifestyle is different than hers and lifestyle choices.  Becca and Chris seem like their relationship would be a lot of work and drama.  

I also think that Becca would have gone home if the production had not encouraged that "talk" before the rose ceremony.  Chris said he was sure of one rose., which  was Whitney. Production was seeing that kaitlyn would be a good fit for bachelorette and needed her to leave at F3.  

I hope there is a wonderful love story for Chris and Whitney.  I certainly don't know, but I think Chris and Becca will grow tired of this drama and uncertainty. I do not think the love is as strong for them.  Maybe the attraction is there but not deep enough. The bachelor production has made it work for making a tense show though.  I think Chris better give Whitney some TLC , I think if she feels that there is not mutuL love, she will not think he is a good fit for her either.  But we will see.  Des and Chris Sig. had similar obstacles and worked through them successfully.

Chris wants them barefoot and pregnant like NOW.  :shocked!:

Well, the one line of the girls day trip to Arlington that sticks out to me is Becca: Being here in Arlington makes me feel like I want to pop out babies ASAP. I think they left that line into the show for a very specific reason. She is really ready to do it and any deception and confussion now is just that....deception.

No you are not alone. I had the same thought.

it also seems like Becca didn't get the last date as shown.  I'm thinking it was Kaitlyn and she seemed pretty confident in getting a rose last night.  I'm wondering if he did end up "plowing her field", as she mentioned in the M&G and why she asks him when they left the RC "what happened?"  I'm convinced that Whit getting a rose was a given, he was up in the air about Becca and Kaitlyn though, that was clear.  Hope the WTA sheds some light on that.

All that Becca said is that she hadn't slept...not that she hadn't slept for days or anything about that. Hell, for all we know, he had a day off from the fantasy dates to figure things out, therefore it would line up with her saying that she hadn't slept. OR better yet, they didn't stay in the same room all night and when she went back to her suite, she never slept. I don't think that it absolutely means that she had her date earlier in the week.

I agree. Think that Chris H said they melt into each others arms.
