JoJo Fletcher-Rodgers & Jordan Rodgers - Bachelorette 12 - Discussion - #4

Public beginning of the slow slide to the end of the relationship....IMO. JoJo has said they have fights and that in itself is no big deal. But. Whether it was Jordan or JoJo....making the discord public was a very stupid error in judgement and IMO an act of disloyalty. If it was Jordan...it is the height of idiocy IMO. In this public war of the roses JoJo will win 10 out of 10 times IMO.
JMO

We still don't know whether the guilty party knew that blocking would alert public attention. Many of us on the forum were unawares as well that a block would register as an unfollow in a timeline. JMO.

So a good lesson, stay off SM when you are drunk or mad. Still a dumb immature move. JMO.

Agreed stuckinsc.

I noticed in that Extra interview that they filmed just before this recent episode, they are pulling the ole stall and pump breaks on the wedding planning/date setting tactic. Like they do. They are "busy" and "just enjoying each other and being engaged."

They've been saying they don't have a date/aren't planning/enjoying each other since late last year. This isn't anything new. And they never said they were busy, just that they're enjoying the engagement/still getting to know each other/JoJo likes the courtship of this time.

Ah. Echoing the ghosts of Bachelor Nation past, I see. I give them another 6 months of dramatics before they pull the plug  JMO.

To be fair and to state facts, this is what they have always said. There was one interview towards the beginning of their public relationship where they said they would like for it to be 2017, but since then, it's always been they will take their time and do it the right way.

They weren't ever screaming from the rooftops saying they'd get married tomorrow like some ghosts of bachelor nation.

^ In that extra interview, Jordan also said he'd elope "in a heartbeat", so it's not like they're putting marriage on the breaks completely. JoJo wants an actual wedding though, so that's not going to happen (this is of the assumption that they'll last of course.) In the same interview, they both said that JoJo will look at him with "those eyes" when they see children, because she has baby fever (which she's also been talking about since Decemeber.) I don't think she'd want to have a baby with him, if she didn't want to marry him. IMO.

And while it is expected for Bach couples to skate down the aisle shortly after getting engaged, I for one think that they are being prudent and are trying to live in the present - not in the Bach bubble anymore. Because in actuality, not many couples marry within the year of meeting. As mentioned, they were still on the high and were now coming out of the bubble so reality had not struck them yet and they said 2017. But these two want to do things the right way I believe and so they are taking their time. Ain't no shame in that. IMO that is much better than announcing concrete plans then have to backpedal, IMO.

Exactly. Only in the month of AUGUST (their finale interviews) did they say they were pushing for some time in 2017. But then in the months after that, they've been saying marriage isn't something to rush into so they're still getting to know each other/they've been stress free/they're enjoying this time/she likes the courtship aspect/etc. And since they've barely been in the public, they haven't given many interviews. So they were never shouting from the rooftops, "we're getting married in Feb!" or "We'd marry each other tommorow!"

When ATFR aired everyone said "oh we give them 6 months" now counting its been much longer isn't it? They both proved everyone wrong then and are going to do it again IMO. Every relationship has ups and downs they are no different. They've been saying since monthssss they are taking their time, getting to know each other etc. So it's not like it came out of the blue moon. All JMO.
