May I please ask who's the "right" person for Jasmine. On this show she started out with 20 guys making her way to the one she sees herself with. Her choice right or wrong. I do think based on the feedback of people who know them from the show or social media that the F2 are both decent guys.

I do think both the F2 are decent guys, I like Kevin, but things I've seen and heard make me think he's not the right person for her, that's just my opinion.

*He's seems really jealous and possessive, that might not matter in the real world because I don't see Jasmine giving other men her attention to other men while committed but his temper is a red flag.

*They've had two arguments on the show, the first one he threatened to leave, the second one he DID leave, yes he came back but it's another thing that bugs me

*He seems to really enjoy attention from other women (the way he told that flight attendant story and the part where he thought she was giving him her number and the things he kind of talks around when talking about his lifestyle in toronto, that 'he needed these two years to get it out of his system' by it I assume he means sleeping around) even if he isn't a cheater, that would bug me in a relationship and from how Jasmine's family talks that seems to have been a problem in her previous relationships. The flight attendant story struck me because I don't think it happened quite the way he characterized it. This is just my speculation but this is what I think really happened: I think he got up when he was on the plane to use the washroom, the flight attendant was probably staring because he's attractive so he gives her a flirty smile back, that opens the door for her to come over and ask what she's been wondering when she saw the group, if they're on the bachelorette, and when he sits down and she passes him the note, it's not some omen on her part, it's just her flirting, she's trying to say say she would give him HER final rose. These aren't facts it's that's the way I pictured that encounter going when I heard him tell that story.

*I also don't think he's really  ready for marriage. I think he thinks he is. His brother got married earlier and he sees how happy his brother and sister in law are and he wants that happiness, but just because you want something doesn't mean you're ready for it.

It's not just one thing, it's all these things together. These aren't points towards Mikhel, just why I think Kevin's wrong for her. I always believe the lead should choose who they want most in the end no matter what.

:alltens: @reneeM your articulate my thought just right.

Some excellent points, @ReneeM, and I would add that we only know about these character traits and arguments because they have chosen to show them to us.

I would hope TPTB want us to be at least somewhat happy with the ending so if KW is to be F1, why show us these things that may leave viewers "concerned" about her final choice?  

Showing some arguing for drama is expected, but constant drama with the same contestant is suspect IMO, unless there is going to be a major shift/resolution in the final ep.

@ReneeM I agree completely

OMG guys kevin and his family were on one of those real estate reality shows

When was that show on? 

At least i got to see what he looked like with a haircut

He likes being on tv hey???

Interesting that it's his 2nd reality tv show. I guess that's his ex. It looks like they were buying a house together.

I can't view the episode pics (for that HGTV show) for some reason. I wonder if the episode is floating somewhere online

eta: n/m saw the pics in the Twitter link. I think he looks better with his current haircut than that weird clean cut Navy look

Brilliant find!  Has anyone unearthed a video link? It would be really interesting to see how they come across in a different context.  

I LOVE this quote from the episode guide:

"Mom's priority is to have her son as close to home as possible. Kevin and Ainsley, on the other hand, want a turnkey modern home far away from his parents."

 

Also would be very interested to know more about his ex-girlfriend Ainsley if anyone can sleuth something there

Something tells me good old Ainsley wanted to move far, far away from the monster in law. Thats hilarious.

I'm going to have to track this down to watch now.
