Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* Discussion - #9

Rachel is with her nephew so I suppose that she's in Dallas. There's a super cute instastory on her instagram

Her nephew is the cutest!

I don't think Bryan is bad though. Not from what I've seen, so far atleast. Perhaps a bit too smooth and maybe that warrants a bad boy moniker, but so far on the show he's shown genuine interest in Rachel and has made an effort to be as direct as possible. So for me, thats what has caught my eye and is all that matters IMO.

Couldn't care less if I actively tried I'm looking forward to seeing their story and if the playa turns into mush?? Even better!! All imo.

I couldn't care less about any of these people. I have yet to have any of them mail Kasha any checks, pay for any vacations or offer up any freebies. So until they impact my life--live and let live. Let them be happy and healthy and enjoy their own thing.

I think Rachel might be a f*cboi whisperer

Why is Bryan even considered a baddie? Is he physically emotionally or verbally abusive? A drunk? A cheater?

That's a good idea. I need to contact these people and let them know how hard we work to shill their names out there for no pay.

About the ring. I could see a contestant purchasing earrings, or a bracelet but a ring? What's he going to say, in case I'm the one you choose, here wear this so you don't forget who I am. A ring is a sign of commitment. I just think it would be awkward to give her that before the F1 was actually chosen. I'm thinking it was purchased after the FRC during their extended stay.

@GuardianAngel Yeah, before I got engaged the only time I can remember a male giving me a ring was to "go steady" in 7th grade. It was a peace ring. It was pretty cool.

I keep hearing this term and I would like to know myself.

Imo I don't think the F1 gave her the ring. I think it was one of hers tbh. Not sure why she would wear it anyway considering it looks like a wedding band. I find the whole thing odd. Imo.

Just wanted to post this cute interview that I watched.

Just wanted to contribute my thoughts to this. I don't think he is a baddie at all at least not in any traditional sense but I will say I do have a certain view of him in that I think he loves women (nothing wrong with that) and the whole let me teach you Spanish thing and going in for that kiss so hard. I've always been told to be weary of guys who approach in that manner as I guess they don't always treat all women in the best way but again nothing major or earth shattering. My thing is just don't be stupid, you will always see the signs if they are there and you want to see them and apart from that a guy who comes at you in the exact opposite way of this could end up being just as bad. I don't think it makes him a bad guy though as plenty of guys I know like that are super sweet and some of them have left it all behind and are happily married being great husbands, I think it just takes the right girl and relationship.

I think sometimes the shtick can be of putting to some in varying degrees basically.

No his not bad. He just comes across as smooth and I think as I've said in another post, we have had our fair share of smooth guys on the show and in the world today and I think people have become tired of it IMO. People are searching for normalcy and don't hold me to it, but I think the producers may need to switch up their tactics particularly if they have a more diverse group each season. Because they will end up in hot water imo going forward on the way they portray people and the situations they steer the contestants into. JMO
