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

@makeover IA there's no need for that. That is the trait that has turned me off her several months ago. The more pressure she feels, IMO the more we'll see of that behaviour IMO.

I thought that was a bit uncalled for. People are allowed to find the show boring and even complain about it on their Twitter if they wish to. I am a fan of Rachel but that was a bit over the top IMO.

ITA!  She is reminding me a little of Becca calling out her those who are not fans.  Just.let.it.go.  Not everyone is going to like you and that's okay.  Jmho.

IDK I see y'alls point about Rachel calling people out and how it can be interpreted as unnecessary. Personally I like that about her. There's a saying never trust anyone who gets along with everyone. I feel Rachel keeps it real and transparent and people know where they stand with her and I love that.

I think she should go back to her previous mindset of not caring about what anyone says both fans and trolls alike.IMO. It's funny because I have seen people say worse things to her and tagged her than the ones she is replying to. Something is up with her and I am not sure what yet.
It does not bother me but I think it leaves a bad taste in some people's mouth about her and the replies are completely unnecessary(except Leah). JMO

Regarding the bolded, that's how I feel too. There's usually a strong correlation between people's general mood and their sensitivity to SM "hate". I guess it might just be because of all the Lee nastiness she had to witness this week. JMO.

I feel Rachel keeps it real

This to me is one of the most divisive expressions. I have never bought into the idea that "keeping it real" means being rude or obnoxious. Then again I left high school years ago. Like I said regarding the Leah thing, I have no issues with a person standing up for themselves. And I don't think people need to be fake or not be clear on where a person stands with them.

Trust me, there is not a person who would ever call me fake because as my family and friends always joke, I have no poker face. If I don't like you, you know. But we're not discussing people Rachel have to spend time with and be around. These are random comments among hundreds that are online about the show and it is nothing that hasn't been said about multiple other seasons.

This is just my opinion but I don't see "keeping it real" and "keeping it 100" here. I see unnecessarily confrontational and overly sensitive and it makes me say that she needs to get over herself. And anyone who has read my comments know that that I have always liked Rachel just fine. But this is not a good look, IMO.

I think she should go back to her previous mindset of not caring about what anyone says both fans and trolls alike.IMO.

This is why I am confused. Because I keep thinking, isn't this the woman who boldly stated that she didn't care what people were saying on social media because she doesn't know them and their opinion mean nothing to her? What happened to that woman?

Something is up with her and I am not sure what yet.

I'm not going to lie, I did wonder if she had a fight with her F1, whoever he is. Because the tone of her responses just seem like someone in a pissed off mood. And it's like, wasn't she just gushing about how deliriously happy and in love she is?

Maybe. She seems like she is in really in a chitty mood and very sensitive right now, it so unlike her to respond to trolls. It is not fun for the viewers to watch this Lee stuff and I think it is even worse for her. I'd recommend she goes back to work(not work from home) or a SHV very soon, maybe it will give a fresh perspective that good indeed came from the experience.

ITA. I don't know what's happened in the past couple of days in her real life, maybe seeing the Lee stuff did stir up some genuine negative emotion, but she's usually not this sensitive, and I've definitely seen her ignore way worse. Jmo.

She is probably way more sensitive/girly/needy than she admits. You guys, she most likely chose another alpha dude just like all our previous whiners and criers and needers I don't think she's any different and just pretended a little better than the other women at the beginning and before all eyes were on her. All imu(npopular)o, I'm sure if we had downvotes, I'd be swimming in em now

Y'all, this is MAJOR. Rachel with the president of ABC on the cover of hollywood reporter. I don't think leads get to meet the president of the network, the highest they go is Fleiss and Mills
