Amen.

My thing is why did Peter wait until after they started kissing to put his hand on her face? Was his arm too tired, and he was resting it before?
Even when they were first kissing, it still didn't seem like he was turned fully towards her. IMO

Peter looks like he would rather be hanging with the guys than kissing Rachel. Maybe he is just uncomfortable with the cameras? She looks all in and he looks to be going through the motions. Jmo.

@quietpal IA her leg is pushed up as if she's wanting him to put his hand on her knee. He spent the whole conversation sitting straight towards the camera only turning his head when he spoke. If someone is interested, they would be sitting facing them. He's kissing her with his hand on her knee while she has both arms around his neck. It just doesn't look very engaging IMHO.

Seeing some of the naked pics of Peter ( while very hot and not showing below the belt but clear nothing on) he is comfortable in front of cameras I have a hard time believing that. A model should be used to cameras many times shoots have video and still cameras.


But overall I agree with your post. Peter likes Rachel but he is not all in like Rachel is. All imo.

It's possible that he's not comfortable with PDAs on camera or he could be not as into her as she is into him. I like Peter but he's hard to read. Bryan on the other hand, is too vocal about what he says are his feelings. Not sure I'm buying it yet though.

He doesn't face her until 2 minute's later.






He finally puts his hands on her face over 30 seconds later.

That to me isn't a sign of hot attraction.

The times listed above on pictures aren't the actual time frame for these pictures. The span of time was actually longer than what is noted in the video. At some point they have to put down their wine glasses and that isn't shown. This sequence seems sliced with I imagine much more happening between them than we see.
 
If you look at what they are sitting on it seems-like an oversized chair.... I could be wrong but that's what it looks like. I think it would be hard to sit facing each other comfortably in an oversized chair. She was already sitting sideways when he brought the glasses of wine over and probably had to fit is the space available. He probably should have just lifted her up and put her on his lap (hard to do with wine though I guess). Or as someone else suggested just rip her clothes off, throw her against the wall with a full throated kiss and skip the convo about bare feet vs socks.

I see this interaction as very hot. To each his own I guess. I know things are excelerated on this show but I never found early make out sessions and ILY on the first date to be attractive or realistic. If a guy moves too fast I wonder what's wrong with them. JMO. Maybe that's the way it has to be on this show and maybe some people like it that way.

Or maybe he did not have that thing with her. After all he did say he hasn't even thought about it and that too after his 1on1.

Yep!! I wanted to say exactly that

Here I was thinking damn look at Peter grabbing her face going in for some more kisses.  I think the progression and comfort level is increasing at a nice pace. Maybe not jumping off the screen obvious but I definitely saw it. JMO. I've always preferred these relationships vs someone being in love with lead by their first 1 on 1 (cringe).

I definitely prefer Peter's method of kissing to the eat your face off TOG's kissing method jmo

I have to talk about Bryan for a sec. Forget about his mack ways or whatever (which I don't see). I'm talking strictly body language at this point. When he and Rachel are having QT, his body is turned towards her and he leans into her. He's  IMO laser-focused on her and doesn't take his eyes off her. That to me says that not only is he attracted to her, but that he's all in. IMO
ETA: He must be doing something that Rachel likes. Despite her fear about it being "too good to be true", she said that Bryan was a breath of fresh air.
