Becca Tilley - Bachelor 19 - Discussion - #8

But Becca does seem to be friends with Andi too per her birthday tweet, or is she using the term 'friendship' loosely? Do we know that they've ever hung out?

Happy Birthday to the most beautiful Andi I know!!!!!!! @AndiDorfman - you are one of a kind! Come to southern california soon! I miss you!

I try to not to look into Whit's lack of SM, how long did she take to post about her own fiancée?

This supports the pattern. Becca has been the one to initiate and share with viewers that they are friends and that they texted throughout the show and has posted support of Whit during and post-show.

Her recent pic of her with Whit is another thing that supports that Becca is initiating letting the public know that she and Whit are friends.

The key thing for me is that I have yet to see Whitney post anything about her and Becca post-show.

Not that she should and she is not active on her SM like Becca is, but given that Becca was not in love with Chris and given that she has said she has full confidence in Chris' feelings for her and if Whit truly believes that Chris was never in love with Becca either (despite what the media or people say) then why has Whit constantly followed/unfollowed Becca on Twitter (that is significant to me given she is hardly active at all on SM) and then only yesterday followed Becca on IG if Whit feels 100% secure with Becca (or with her own relationship)?

Becca has done a lot to show she is in full support of Whitney. She has said she was not in love with Chris. It is only Chris that hummed and hawwed during ATFR. Doesn't mean he was in love with Becca either but he didn't adamantly refute the question if Becca had different feelings than she did. He said, he didn't know what he would have done. But the ship had sailed, yes. And because it has sailed it is good that Becca and Whit are still friends. It shows a ton of maturity on Becca's part as well as loyalty to Whit to continue to let the public know that she supports Whit.

To me, I do see they are friends. But what I also see, based on both Becca and Whitney's SM posts in regards to each other, most (if not all) posts about Becca+Whitney are initiated by Becca. That's the pattern. What does it mean? One can speculate any which way but it is still the pattern.

For now, they are following each other on IG, hanging out together, etc. They are friends. It will be interesting to see if Whit posts a comment on Becca's IG saying something like "love you too girl" or posts something with her and Becca on her own SM as Becca has done. But not doing so doesn't make their friendship not real, it just implies to me that Becca may be the one who initiates the friendship (only speculation based on the fact that Becca has told the media that she texts with Whit) which, again doesn't mean it isn't real. I have friends whom I initiate more than they do to do things together, etc. Some friends are the same (both initiate/reciprocate) but there are also friendships where initiating is more one-sided. That is the pattern I have seen here with B+C. Doesn't mean it is reality nor does it mean it is a negative thing.

JMHO

I think Whitney may think that posting pics with Becca will just lead to some unnecessary speculation Chris doesn't need right now, since he's trying to attract viewer votes. She's in LA to support him, so spending time with ex, who all the tabloids claim is the one he really wanted, is a bit weird in most people's eyes. I don't think it has anything to do with their friendship.

What I do find a bit weird is Whitney unfollowing Becca on Twitter while the show was airing. Seems like there may have been some issues back then.

Per the bolded:
It could be Whitney was asked to unfollow Becca while the show was airing.

I find it more odd that post-show she never started following Becca on IG but only has done so now that Becca posted a photo with her on Becca's IG. While I personally feel like they have a real, mature, and caring friendship that is separate from C+W, I do feel that Becca initiates this more based on the pattern (doesn't mean that is true, just speculating and doesn't mean it is not real since friendships are not always 50-50). If anyone really understands it is Becca. She seems like a very supportive and empathetic person.

ETA: Becca edited and deleted the original comment that she had said about anyone thinking it is weird she is friends with Whit that she will block them or they need to move on. She deleted that. Her post just tags Whit now with a heart emoji. I think Whit and Becca have a lose-lose with many fans/followers if they are friends in real life. Sad, but true. Again, my post above is not about Becca and Whit not being friends in real life -- I believe they are, truly so -- it is just to highlight that, like many friendships, it may have an ebb and flow and not always 50-50 initiating/reciprocation all the time.

Kasha you beat me to it as that would be my best guess as well.

I think it was only for a short time in the middle of the season though. Could be wrong.

There are some people who simply are not into IG and social media and there is nothing strange about it. 
I could easily see someone starting to do it just simply to be nice and reciprocate, but having no time or intention to make a habit out of it. 
Neither of my daughters or s-i-l's do IG and are not into any of the social media sites that much anymore. Sometimes real life is just that--real life and social media takes a significant back seat.

My concern being a huge Becca fan are things ok?  Normally she responds to tweets, Post IG or Snapchats which are so funny :cutesmile!:

I'm new to the forum so this may be nothing.

I follow her too and something does seem strange. I think she is really sick of the negative post and articles. She is such a positive person and probably wants a break. Her last IG gives me that feeling plus the header on her IG.

CDL is pure trash imo and will print anything for shock value. I literally don't believe anything they print.

LOve Becca and hope the story is no where near being true. She can do sooooo much better than Chris. Both Becca and Whit should run far away from him. JMHO Something is 'going on" with chris though.

It's such a joke. I'm assuming Becca has moved on long ago and certainly Chris has. Can't believe anyone is still talking about this.
