Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* Discussion - #3

It's funny how people are tying be in the scene to get on tv

The mum fangirling over Rachel lool she was fangirling more than her daughter..

IMO They seem to have an effortless friendship. In that sense, they actually remind me of Rachel and Nick. I still don't see the chemistry that I saw with Bryan or even Dean. I am curious to see her interaction with the other 2 in her F4 now.

All JMO

Thanks so much to everyone for posting! My thoughts are:

1) the amount I enjoy looking at Peter is already like way over the top, I'm going to be a goner this season

2) I see more of a friendly,chill vibe than an I can't be close enough to you vibe like I got with Bryan, so IMO no F1 spark there from either of them (JMO). Unless Bryan is going to be the physical chemistry guy but not "the one" then who knows, but as of now, I'd guess Peter's not her final guy. JMO.

3) I hope Jack is still in too and that would make 3 of the F4 over 30 really hot men which is making me really hopeful for a great next Bachelor

That's the difference between Rachel and Nick though IMO. Nick said on afterbuzz that friendship with the person he's in a relationship with isn't that important to him (paraphrasing) but I think it's pretty important to Rachel. I see a giddiness with Peter that I haven't see with anyone else.

I also think Bryan's gonna get the 'passion' edit.

JMO

I don't know I can't really compare as we haven't really gotten a kissing pic or vid with Peter. Even in that 1on1 sitting pic with Bryan there were a few who didn't see chemistry but changed their opinions once the HTD pics/vids were released.

I'm not really sold on them but I'm sure he's probably their top pick for bach if she doesn't pick him.

Hoping Alex and Dean are also in the F4.

Their effortlessness in a very public, crowded place reminds me a little of Catherine's HTD at Pike's Place. I remember some clearly seeing only friendship when those pics came out that season.


Or I could be projecting a little. Lol

Friendship without the passion/chemistry/desire is just friendship IMO and eventually one or both parties will seek more IMO. IMO There needs to be both on some level IMO in a good relationship. For some, one takes more precedence over the other and that's depends on the person IMO.

IMO right now, based on the little video snippets we have seen:
Peter=Friendship
Bryan=Passion/Chemistry
and surprisingly Dean=Both Friendship+Chemistry

IMO Bryan is still F1 IMO but we'll see.

All JMO

I think they seem a bit awkward still, but that's probably because Peter is more reserved in general. Then again Rachel is slow to open up herself, so I'm not sure if two slow-to-warm-up people can advance their relationship at the required speed. I can imagine Rachel being taken by Bryan's smooth Latin lover moves, since it's less effort for her, and that may be hard to compete with. JMO.

@mindless I have to wait to see how it plays out.

I didn't think of it but like @ReneeM mentioned Bryan also has a possibility of getting the passion edit.. Guess have to wait for the edit and who will be F1.
