Jordan Rodgers - Bachelorette 12 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #4

All JMO.

Right?   Well, it shows she's just like the rest of us then! Wanting attention from men...it can be a hard knock life. I think it's because Jordan is used to dating/hooking up with (whatever :P) attractive women. Though IMO, the ladies he's been with aren't all that.. JoJo is much more attractive. But anyway, he's probably used to having women throw themselves at him, so that's probably why JoJo feels like she has to put in work and he doesn't do much. It sucks TBH. Ah well. She picked him and he essentially picked her. What can ya do?? IMO.

Emily. 

I actually DO think the men act like and think JoJo is out of their league...except Jordan, which is the one that actually matters..

I'm shocked too!!! And BBJ does it so naturally, so casually, so freaking smoothly it's unreal. She actually squealed when she realized he was coming to get her at the cocktail party last episode. Like is he not supposed to be wooing you right now!! It's really amazing.

It's just about the mentality and experience. Some men will think a girl that is considered average is the hottest girl they've ever seen. And some men will think a girl is just okay looks wise when she literally IS the hottest girl they will EVER see. JoJo probably does get a butt load of attention in every day life, but like what's been said, she seems to gravitate towards the men that are used to getting women of all kind (even if they're not cute: *ahem* Chad and Jordan do absolutely nothing for me.) She seems to gravitate towards the guys that can get "here there and everywhere" any time and any day of the week with the ladies. But most guys WOULD eat out of her hand. She just doesn't seem to like those guys... Damn you JoJo!  It's that chase that girls love... I personally don't get it, but girls tend to go through that more times than not. Even the uber gorgeous gals. It's the classic chick flick. So yeah, no hope for the rest of us.. 

IMO.

It's  been said by some last season that JoJo is  great actress. Maybe that's exactly what she's doing this season.  She may have developed feelings for Jordan along the way, but possibly not strong enough to outshine her feelings for the true F1.

I don't think so. Jordan seems far and away her true f1 IMO.

I do hope she's acting towards Jordan because if she is, she deserves an Emmy. If not, yeah not so smartish to fall for the same type of guy who destroyed her.

I thought men during Kait's season, who isn't half as pretty as Jojo, were eating out of her hand. That ridiculousness between Shawn and Nick was insane!

These men seem checked out and enjoying more of their brotherhood than Jojo. I see a level of disinterest because when the FIR was handed out, they must have felt they're toast.

Jordan seems to be a master of the game. He always holds back just a little, providing the promise of more but making JoJo (and us!) wait for it. It's like a cliffhanger episode of your favorite show.

I know it works but I also find it calculating and somewhat dishonest.

I also agree that the other men don't seem to be very sure of their chances around JoJo. They are either holding back not sure they have a chance; throwing it all into the ring because, well, why not enjoy what they do get with her?; or playing along with producer story lines.

^ Probably TBH. If JoJo was super obvious in front of the guys about Jordan since day 1, they probably thought "why the hell even try?" and just did enough to stay, just to hang out with each other and travel, since they knew it was GAME OVER.

IMO.

@SarahD I think that's what I was expecting to see. The F1 and F2 battling it out Shawn and Nick style. Instead we get Jordan and Robby being bros and having a spa day. Such a contrast from last season.

Maybe it's the fact that she gets attention from men on a daily basis that's the problem here. It's just not exhilarating for her. The excitement for her is chasing a disinterested man and hoping she eventually wins him over.

All JMO.

F2s not getting along is the worst thing I have had the displeasure to watch on this show so this is a refreshing change to see that oversll the f4 get on great.
somjust for that go Jojos boys.

I agree nd, it's refreshing that they are getting along, and I love that her f3 are so close. I like all of them. And the spa day was hilarious
