The Bachelorette - Season 12 - JoJo Fletcher - General Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* - #4

^ I'm so looking forward to JoJo and Robby's kiss in the rain in tonight's episode. I hope it's on The Notebook level

I like Robby as well but the thing is tptb rarely show Jojo and Robby kiss. He was almost non existent for the first 4 episodes, the only time i ve really seen them kiss was at the pool table, other than that i ve no idea

I have this gut instinct that when Jordan was picking out the engagement ring, he probably had no clue about anything, so he just picked one. But Robby, since he's so fashion forward, and seems like he pays attention to detail, probably picked out a nice azz ring. So I'm just gonna guess that the ring Robby picked out was better than the ring Jordan picked out

IMO.

Len, lmao. I like Robby just fine but something is missing for me- he's just not manly enough. I like a nice balance of masculinity and playfulness in a man. (Luke too masculine and serious, Robby not enough). He does have a sick swimmers bod though! Those abs!

None of them are my type. The only dude I'd say is my type is probably Chase.

BBJ was probably internally freaking out and thinking "Wtf did I get myself into?? This has gone too far, mommy, take me home! Where's the eject button??!" So yeah, I hope Jo is okay with a ring hastily chosen while her man was likely on oxygen support and having the local shaman talk him down from the bridge.

I like Jordan minus the silly hair. He looks much hotter post show with the backwards cap he's been rocking. I do love me some Chase too- that pic of him ironing with the towel on but when he talks I get bored. It's like that Mindy Kaling quote- "my body is very attracted to your body, but when you speak, my brain gets angry." Haha

In what universe did JoJo not pick out her own ring, or at least heavily the style, and Neil Lane told Jordan heavily hinted that her ring was "the ring." Robby got the back up, MOT rings to choose from.

I'm sitting in a dentist office waiting room and literally just laughed out loud at your visual. Hilarious!! Local shaman. Hahaha. I got some weird looks, thanks for that.

Welcome Heather!

Your post was moved to this thread. 

Something's rotten in Denmark! I could be wrong, but noticed something the last episode, with its cliffhanger. At the rose ceremony at the end of the program, JoJo states she's going to have to let Luke go. Now, when has anybody ever said what they're going to do, before handing out the first rose? Doesn't this nicely setup the scene, where Luke pulls her aside and finally says he loves her? As to telling JoJo he loves her, it's such a lame concept that, during her visit to Luke's home and that walk to the big heart on the ground somebody painstakingly constructed, when all is said and done, Luke is unable to, doesn't naturally tell her that he loves her in such a scene? Was Luke a crack baby? Just watching that scene was, "Huh? Whut?!"

So, we have Luke unwilling to, as if, use the L-word, yet supposedly in love with JoJo. We have this unprecidented "here's what I'm going to do" of JoJo, prior to the rose ceremony, and a cliffhanger: how convenient! This is merely one incident where one can smell the stench of staged dramatics, that "true love" is trumped by ratings, like they always have an evil villain that hangs around too long the bachelor or bachlorette is oblivious to, a villain that would washout as a B actor. This last dude, Chad I think it was, was so transparent this way, his villainy such schtick and would get him fired on an Ed Wood set.

Somehow, and this is just a theory, I'm wondering if Luke hasn't been picked for the next bachelor, JoJo instructed to end it all with one of the other less articulate and less charismatic lugs? JoJo, after all, has a clear preference for beef, which is also, you must admit, what "true love" is all about in America, where relationships tend to end, shortly after the true lust wears off.


I'm skeptical. Has anybody else noticed all these bachelor/bachlorette seasons have certain plot characteristics? In law enforcement, they say there are no coincidences.

Ha! I hope so! JoJo has a Pinterest page and one of her boards is all about weddings, and she tagged three engagement rings that she liked. One was an emerald cut with a baguette on each side and a pave band. The other was a solitaire with diamonds on the band. And the other was a radiant cut with diamonds on the band. Just look up "JoJo Fletcher Pinterest" on Google. (This page was made before the bachelor, because I saw it while the bachelor was still filming..)
