I'm worried for her with her BBJ! He's a baddy after all.

The show gave her Chase & she overlooked him for Jordan. You make your bed, you've got to sleep in it. :Nod:

Nah, I don't agree. Just because he's a good guy doesn't mean he's Jo's good guy. Tanner and Jade is the best example to me. Nothing there with K and then 2 weeks later, he's suddenly the most loving, loyal and tender man in the world with Jade. I see the same thing with Chase and Jo. He's good probs but not Jo's man. Jmo.

They still have been divorced. JoJo could have brought it up to make Chase feel better JMO

I don't get how this is at all related. Chase talked about not having his dad around, struggling, etc. Jo has no idea about divorce because she's the product of a stable, long, happy (I assume from their posts) marriage. She cannot relate to what happened years before she was even waking this earth. All Jmo.

Yeah, but she does come from a blended family, and in theory watched all four of her siblings deal with this kind of stuff- the parent shuffle.

Just for something different, TPTB should choose someone from Hollywood to be the Bachelor. Who is hot, single and ready to mingle? . Justin Bieber?

Exactly what I was going to post. She had Chase and Luke. Both really good guys...of course, she wasn't interested in them. Stable and sincere is not her type.

The biggest complaint i read on the board is that Luke and Chase are boring and sedate .... Maybe Jojo felt the same way. Jordan and Jojo were attracted to each other, whether or not it survives outside of the bubble remains to be seen.

Her siblings are years older than her and are probably fine  *IMO*

JoJo's parents have been divorced as well. I guess Chase didn't get the memo

Jos parents have been married for 30 years.

Yes, they have been married for 30 years, but I believe they were both divorced from others before they got together.

Alanna wrote:Her siblings are years older than her and are probably fine This is the silliest conversation ever.

Blended families are complex. We have no idea of JoJo's family dynamic. We don't know if her half siblings are fine or not fine. Far from silly. Divorce is a serious issue JMO

OK, so I am on the west coast and we are watching Chase's HTD right now. Why have they hidden this Chase until now? I just love this guy now! He seems so real and so genuine. Loved the visit with his Dad and the opening up there. And he seems to have a really great relationship with his Mom, who is a sweetheart. His sister also just opened up but seemed so mature doing so. I really like his family and Chase seems like a really good guy. Plus he looks super hot too. What's not to love? I hadn't thought until now about Chase being the next lead, but now I do. I think if he were, he could be one of those few who end up with a long term successful relationship as a result.

Well I wouldn't say that JP or Chris S or Ben H are exactly the most exciting types either. IMO at this stage in her life, JoJo just wants that sexual excitement and is thinking with her vjay and not her head. Obviously, you want that chemistry in a relationship, but you also look for other things as well if you are really looking long term. I don't see her doing that. All I see is a woman ignoring all the red flags out there for a the sake of a good time. Nothing wrong with wanting to sow your wild oats, but I don't want to hear the whining about how her ex treated her so bad and then turn right around and do all the same crap again.
