Jordan Rodgers - Bachelorette 12 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #6

Mommyof1 wrote:Addressing it would have only made it worse.  I still think his tweet last night is a passive aggressive jab at Jordan.  Why would the entire family be estranged from him?  Not just Jordan.  The entire family.  I can understand siblings being estranged, but his parents are also.  The people who raised him.   Because of Olivia's sex talk or is it something else?  That just blows my mind.  

I keep reading about this "sex talk", so I googled it and now I'm even more confused. She basically said nothing, just confirmed they have sex, but not on game days. You don't have to be a clairvoyant to know young people in a relationship have sex with each other, so what is the big deal exactly? I am truly baffled. If that has anything to do with the rift then these people need to grow up.

It is my belief that who you are on social media is who you truly are in real life. SM provides a false anonymity, but the "cruelty" or "kindness" or whatever you write comes out of your mind....and, of course, we are our thoughts.

I think the big deal is that Aaron is a private guy and she went blabbing to the media about their sex life. Packernation started blaming her when he lost games. Whoops.

This is interesting fodder for discussion. We need to have more general discussion threads. LOL 
IDK...I think about a lot of things. I don't act on half or prob 10% of what I think about though. 
I don't like social media. I have a twitter to follow certain things for sleuthing. I have a FB for games, one for personalized superficial things and one for sleuthing. I basically only use one and sparingly. 
I text because--well, I have to to move on with technology and youth. But I hate it. I do believe it's almost a necessity in society now. 
I firmly believe there are certain "old" skills lost in the last 20 yrs, in the attempt to "better" society. JMO

I can't believe the rift if over what little Olivia said. If anything, I would think Jordan and Luke would have had a good laugh about it. It has to be something else. Maybe the family doesn't like Olivia but would that be a reason for Luke not to talk to his parents, or vise versa. I didn't always like my son's girlfriends but I never stopped talking to him.

It's none of my business what their family problems are but I am curious to know exactly what caused this and am hoping that they can get it worked out. It makes me sad.

Never did I imagine a comment someone made a year ago about the sex life of two people not even on this show to be discussed so much here. Their sex life seems to be discussed more than that of the actual contestants on this show. It's comical.

I agree. I just had my son write a letter to my Grandma the other day. At 91 years of age, she doesn't own a computer.

I highly doubt Olivia's comment caused such a huge rift. And if it did and the Rodgers' rental units are that conservative and prude, waaaatch out! Cause little Bro Jo is about to go to Fantasy Suites on national television with a self proclaimed "sex is the most important aspect of a relationship" lead.

I bet it's about money. Most huge family disputes like this come down to money. And Aaron has a lot of it.

Yeah can't imagine it has to do with a sex comment because they're pretty much already seen baby BBJ get to 2nd base on national tv  With more funsies to come. If it is about that, then it really is a reenactment of the Murray family atfr debacle.

There's being private and then there's pretending you're a 30-year-old virgin. It's not like she went into any sort of detail. And I thought the fans blamed her first which is why she was asked about it in the first place? But I may be mistaken.

Anyhow, if the parents are that conservative then watch out indeed! JoJo getting it on with Robby or Chase will not be well-received.

She didn't say it was THE most important part of a relationship. But yeah, his folks better hold onto their couches because fantasy suites are coming up! And the sex date long passed already!

I don't believe that was the reason for the falling out, but I think Olivia has something to do with it and that's all I am going to say. I don't think it has anything to do with money. Fans started blaming Olivia after her sex comment as they felt she was causing him to lose his focus. I think it's crazy when fans blame the GF, but it certainly was a big buzz sweeping around GB at the time. I like Aaron. I like Jordan. Hopefully the entire family can work through whatever is keeping them apart.
