The Bachelorette 11 - Kaitlyn Bristowe - Epi 8 July 6th - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Why did she tell Ben H. she was falling in love with him???

I hate this season. That's all. Especially now that Jared is gone.

The Jerry Springer show with Lady Gaga's Bad Romance playing in the background..that sums up this season for me.

There are still weeks left before the finale.

Because TPTB are banking on a trainwreck instead of a love story to finish the season??

That was so bizarre, especially because she initiated it! I don't remember the lead ever saying "I'm falling in love with you" to a contestant first and having them respond with "me too". And I just don't see anything beyond a "she just really wants to jump his bones" type of relationship with them anyway, which made the whole thing even stranger.

I also call bs on what she told Shawn, she said it wasn't her idea, blaming Nick if you will.  

YES!!! I'm not watching the season but mistakenly watched the clip before the show and felt the same thing. And I said:

Went too far, WENT TO FAR, what the h*ll does that mean!  
You invited him into your room, you slept with him.  
This is so gross, it's got me wretching!!!  
Bad, Bad, Bad Kaitlyn.  Take some responsibility....

She clearly is pissed off with the way they thrown her under the bus. Looks like she could careless about anything but Shawn. Her tweet when she was telling Shawn about pre FS sex says it all

I mean we saw how it was all her wanting sex, initiated and invited Nick into her bedroom. She may have fooled Shawn but not the viewers

It was totally all her wanting sex. Nick wasn't petting/dry humping her on the streets and in the church, biting her lips and salivating at the near thought of it.

IMO it was mutual, both wanted it.

What I hate is that Nick has to watch her regretting it, when it was so obvious she totally wanted it at the time.

This is her "guilt" talking. Monday morning quarterbacking as it used to be called. She is re-weighing her actions after the fact and trying to justify them. 
The simple fact remains, she did the same thing twice, not once, but twice. 
Fool me once---
Fool me twice---
It would be better for K to just repeat the same answer over and over when asked and own it and move on. "At the time, it was right. I had doubts later.". 
I don't think anyone of us has never been in a position where we did not feel this way, just different circumstances or deeds.

Of course it was mutual for two consenting adults, hence she must own it and not make it seem or say it wasn't her idea. The date could have ended after dinner. She was all "maybe I should invite him into my room and whatever happens happens". It's all on her she was the lead and calling the shots

I was just responding to the part about how it was all her wanting sex. They both wanted it and both are facing the fallout - for Kaitlyn it's the mess her season became and Shawn issue, for Nick it's Kaitlyn freaking out and regretting it. I mean, it's not like she's going to defend it when he wasn't her intended f1. She screwed up. We know it, she knows it.
