Olivia Caridi - Bachelor 20 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Now I understand why I'm inclined to like Olivia or at least keep an open mind even though I'm not a Longhorn fan.... I'm also Type A and a bit OCD. We have to stick together

I'll have to wait and see with Olivia. She may be overcompensating on SM, maybe not. I still think RS exaggarates when he says she rubbed people the wrong way.

I do definitely get the vibe that she is someone who is going to be  worried about the image she projects and whether viewers like her or not. I don't think the changes she made on her SM have anything to do with her career, TBH. I always remember that it's very easy to carefully construct an IG to appear to be cute, witty, sweet, kind, etc. I see that a lot with Bachelor alum, who are awful on TV but appear to be so cool on their IG. I'll wait to see. I really liked her from her bio and I always want to support a fellow introvert, but its just too soon for me to really know how she'll really be.

I'm looking forward to seeing Olivia.  I found her parents very interesting and candid on their videos.  Olivia may just not have been what Ben was looking for but that does not mean she was a villain.

She put herself on a dating show, so she gets what she gets, but I am not going to judge anyone until I see them live.

Plus she graduated from UT, so she is on my good side already

I actually like what I've seen of Olivia so far. Type A and a bit OCD works for me as well!

 Don't let this push her off you're good side, but she's a Horned Frog grad...

That's okay, ask Whit (our resident Horned Frog) TCU is my #2 Big 12 team. She still looks good in burnt orange

For a while now Olivia has liked posts about image and not being worried about what people think, and regrets, etc, etc. I think something did happen on the show but at the same time I don't think that makes her a bad person. These contestants know by now what they sign up for... it is in the contract. And if they don't know, then they are ignorant by choice.

I agree - I think that some drama with her probably went down, but I also don't think it makes her a bad person. The fact that she seems to get along really well with the girls, especially Jubilee and Leah, now makes she's probably a likable person who just messed up or was taken advantage of by the producers because of her weird sense of humor and/or jealousy. I think most times, the drama isn't that serious and they all get over it pretty quickly. Look at people like Clint, JJ, and Nick who were the "villains" and are now some of the most likable guys from  that season.

I don't think anyone, other than show people, knows what her edit will be like yet. So much depends on what/who else they have to provide drama.

While no one yet knows what the edit will look like, if something happened while on the show then it could make sense that Olivia (or anyone for that matter) could be worried about it. Heck, even if nothing bad really happened, these contestants could be worried... it happens all the time with editing.

It's just a matter of time before the eye daggers start to fly.

I can't blame Ben for giving her the first impression rose, she is so beautiful.
