Eric Bigger - Bachelorette 13 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

In an ideal world, everyone would be lucky to be color blind but unfortunately folks are conditioned or pre-conditioned based on life experiences they may have had. I completely understand why Eric said what he said......all jmho.

The producers themselves have made this a season about racial conflict!! casting Lee. And who knows, maybe they prompted Eric to mention it.

If the white leads have never thought about race, then why did it take 32 seasons for even one black person to make it to the F3? And honestly, that could have been because they wanted Rachel for the next Bachelorette. I'm just saying.

@2observe Now Eric is saying #bliss. What to make of all this? #success? #bliss? What in the world?

Another clue that Eric is not F1. No mention of him at all in Rachel's blog.

Let's wait until tomorrow's blog.

Did you just see his instagram telling everyone to not be late because the miracle continue (paraphrasing)???? ETA: He also said it's time for 1 on 1 to see who is who and what is what.

Yep!

I think Eric is going to explain why he is still single and hasn't found love yet. I watched a couple of his videos where he describes his move to LA and his life there, the difficulties he went through and hardships he overcame, and he mentioned that he didn't really talk to women because he wasn't yet in a position to support a wife and family. Such a genuine guy!

The guy is insecure,sensitive, brutally honest and not afraid to say whatever he is thinking. Him making calculations of how many black guys have gone on 1-1 dates is what most people are thinking but not saying. I love how he speaks his truth.

I love how Eric speaks his truth, too.

I especially like that I know where Eric stands. Always.

He's totally authentic and real to me and I applaud him for it.

I am looking forward to watching more of him and his date!  

I wish the producers hadn't encouraged so much drama around him. Face it, all those conflicts have been, most likely, born from prodding to create a story line. That said, I agree he is very real and in the moment; I would love to see what he is like outside of the Bachelorette. However, judging Rachel's tastes on how she responds within this one small group of men in an unusual situation isn't really fair.
