Joelle Fletcher - (JoJo) - Bachelor 20 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* - #2

In looking back at the FS dates JoJo by far has the most romantic date. Releasing turtles is cool but not the most romantic. Take another look at the water falls, jumping together into the water and that sensual kiss with the waterfall in the back. Not to mention her total surprise when he tells her he loves her... such a genuine heartfelt reaction from both of them. Perfect date. JMO.

JMO but that's a great thing to hope/wish for anyone! And I agree.

Then again Ben took Lauren on the turtle date because he knows how much she loves animals. I think it's pretty romantic that he wanted to make her happy. More romantic than swimming in some waterfall. JMO.

IMO that date was sort of another example of how Ben has been chasing Lauren. In Warsaw Lauren was very impressed when she saw how Ben had given of his time to children who needed it - this was one of the things that Lauren loves about Ben. Helping to give animals hope for new life is a similar type of giving and I think would have been Ben's choice (if it was his) of a date to show Lauren more of that side of him. I remember the romp in the ocean afterwards being pretty romantic so that was not at all lacking in their date.
JMHO

It's sweet to do something he thinks Lauren would like but when I think of romance I'd go for the waterfalls over the turtles. JMO. What is romantic I guess is in the eye of the beholder.

I just watched Ben and JoJo's FD again and I will be shocked if it isn't her he picks in the end. So much more depth in their conversations. JMO

I totally agree with you.

If someone us afraid if heights it wouldn't be Sooo romantic .. Double rainbows sure are tho

Bravo luvstruck, on that analysis. There is a lot of meat in those blogs, but...does Ben write them is my big question? Maybe he does with some assistance? 

When it comes to JoJo I'm just not seeing a tradional F2 edit.
Her edit is so similar to JP's and Chris S's and that is what has me spinning right now among many other things. 

Has MF been this excited about a previous season as of late?

Regarding Ben's promise to not blindside JoJo...maybe through the sleep deprivation and alcohol-fueled haze, he forgot about that promise? He might not be clinging to that promise like us BenJo shippers are clinging to the last bag of Doritos on the grocery store shelf during a hurricane.

This is an odd discussion to me because I would kill to do either date with my husband...tomorrow if I could. Are we supposed to guess who he will pick because of the dates they got? Is that a thing? All dates seem romantic, even Caila's. My husband and I would have rocked that date.

Back in the day, the dates and activities, the room, the number of rose petals on the bed and much more..used to be clues or giveaways. I am not sure how much of that still holds true because so many of the savvy sleuthers here could figure them out. Those days were fun.

On that note, yes, Lauren got the bigger more luxurious FS and her HTD and FD were filmed last. which indicated F1. 

But I also think it's possible while Lauren was the easy front-runner going into HTD & beyond, Ben could have had some epiphany and tidal shift with JoJo during their FD that changed Ben's course. It's a very small possibility at this point, but not impossible, right?

Ben is closer to JoJo in this photo.  

Oh, and get this guy an iron. He's a wrinkled mess!
