Josh Murray - Amanda Stanton - BIP 3 - Discussion

I get irrationally annoyed at the very sight of them.

I agree with the gladiator sandals.  They have to be uncomfortable in the summer.  But that's another thing that I remember Josh not liking.  I remember when he and Andi were together and they did an interview for the Knot.  She was talking about what kind of gown she wanted and she said she would bring Josh with her to look at gowns.  She said she always brought him with her when she needed a dress for an event because he had a good sense of what looked good on her.  And she said liked the fact that he would say either something looked awesome or no way.  One of things she mentioned is that he said that she would never wear gladiator sandals.  So I find it amusing that not only does Amanda wear them but both of her girls do as well.  But I also see that it seems to be the style of today. I believe that he is conservative and old fashioned.

I will admit I am biased in some ways but I can honestly say I didn't like Amanda since Ben's season so it has nothing to do with her being with Josh now.  I don't like to make fun of things that people have no control over but I will say that on Ben's season I could not stand her voice  and would actually turn the volume off when she talked.  So when I saw her on BIP I could see that how she presented herself on there did nothing to make me warm to her.  

Everyone condemned Josh for the way he was on BIP but the flip side is anyone with respect for themselves would not have allowed him to behave in that manner.  She would not have gone in the boom, boom room when they had only known each other 3 days if that.  It was almost as though she was desperate and would allow anyone to treat her with disrespect.  And I know this is rehashing but my instincts were correct when Josh wanted to leave BIP and just date her in real life but she wanted to stay.   She could still have had Josh, gone home early to be with her girls.  Win.  Win.  In my opinion.

So still confused as to what it is that she wants, is it fame, is it Josh, is it the simple life that she talks about.  I know how much Josh loves children and wants a family but I do hope that he is at least thinking about what problems will continue to happen with a ready made family and not rush into anything.  These are all just my opinions.

If the Duhhh, Momma Duhhh and friend of Duhhh think nothing of trashing the father of her girls then they'll think nothing of throwing the BOR under the bus when this relationship inevitably goes up in flames. And let's face it, Bachelor Nation is most likely going to take the Duhhh's side because the BOR already has a bad reputation after the Fictional Novel and for some bizarre reason single mommies are seen as paragons of virtue on this show. This will not end well for the BOR. I'd feel badly for him if he hadn't gone on the show to repair his image and gotten himself mixed up with crazy again and well honestly he's not really much of a catch himself either.  

All JMO.

I love your posts on point + hilarious sense of humor
I love how the 'h' after 'Duh' progressively keeps increasing throughout the post

Borduhh speak : BOR annoyed. BOR tell everyone. DUH late.

^can somebody please explain to me what the appeal of the above animal stickers/filter is? I mean I could somehow understand if you are 16, but when you are in your 30s.....

I thought the same thing . Why is it that everyone else teasing their SO I can see as cute/funny? But when Josh and whoever is his flava "love of his life" of the month does it, it always seems mean spirited?

Every day I become more and more dumbfounded that this is the man Andi wanted to marry.

I am all for dry humour - I am very sarcastic myself - but I don't get the joke if there is one - seems passive aggressive to me

That snap as well as Amanda's earlier "joke" about Josh trashing the place are giving me the impression that these two already annoy each other quite a bit. Not a good sign after 3 months.

Amanda made reference to almost being late to their flight on her snapchat too.

I will say this:

This entire spectacle has illuminated Andi in a whole new light for me. She no longer bothers me nearly as much as she used to. I think she came out the winner here. Free promotion for her book, justified over what she wrote to begin with, and best of all, she's free and clear of BOR. I honestly do not understand how a woman who has enough smarts to pass a BAR exam and actively practice law chose this neanderthal as her F1. I think Andi may go down as one of the worst leads in terms of making a final choice. Honestly. 

I agree the passive agressive-ness between these two on social media is palpable. They don't really like each other all that much, IMO.

Book smarts do not always translate into common sense or other smarts or even sensitivity and insight. JMOAA

Well he better get use to it because when you have 2 little kids to get ready it's not that easy to always be on time. Sounds like he is getting impatient already.
