Hey Peter, happy 4th!

Also, if he's going in his business tour 7/22 7/23, that means no SHV/meeting up with Rachel  that weekend, imo.

Hilarious! At this point, I think all three of them are in on the joke and over it.

Peter's new 'on the road' personal training business is making me wonder if he doesn't have the Bachelor gig in the bag yet (JMO). Something is really off IMO. The next Bachelor rarely starts something new professionally and lays low in the interim before his season starts filming IMO. Peter is trying to take advantage of his 15 mins as quickly as possible which makes me wonder if there is zero chance of it being extended and that is why he is in such a hurry (JMO).

All JMO

Due to the time they have prior to filming I don't think the bachelo is usually locked down this early. I think it's later summer so probably doesn't know either any yet but is using his fame to get him on the road and out of WI. Imo

@coolangel IA I have said the same around here somewhere. If they dangled that carrot, I wouldn't think he would make the changes he is making. When he announced his new venture and moved his items to storage, I felt that was not a move in the bachelor direction. Why do all that just to give it all up in a couple of months. Return from filming with no home base that we know of.

Something is not right with the speculation that he is TB IMO.

@coolangel yeah something is off to me as well. His behavior isn't F1 and it isn't next lead like either IMO. Then again maybe it is. Just really weird either way, IMO.

However, he moved out of his house. So for me it looks more an undetermined period of time away from Madison. Plus he started his tour in LA and San Francisco..... which does not surprise me one bit since he tried so many times to tell rachel this is where he wants to live IMO... she cough did not get the memo until epi5 IMO couch

From WI to CA... he could have go from state to state down to CA but his first cities to promote his fitness are LA and Frisco...

I have this gut feeling he started his campaign for next bachelor as soon as he stepped in Rachel's season. I believe he did not care who the lead was and was kinda surprise to like her, probably had a crush on her after her idolatry attitude. But his goal was to promote his patnership with JToor and expand his fitness.  He never stopped since november/december (except during filming) but then his partner JToor took over from him by posting numerous pics with him and tagged him... even fusion both logo JToor AND The bachelorette the following day of the premiere on may 22.

so IMO Peter never ever stopped promoting. He was lucky that the lead liked him (still going back to his face when he first receive the rose at ep1 RC).

Being a model and truly handsome put a loooooooooooooooot of women on his side. RS added some fuel for a while too. Once RS spoils the F1, fans are rushing to the potential F1 like bees with honey. IMO

But all along I honestly believe he used the prods. He know the works. He was a model for 2 years. He said it himself that he did not feel comfortable in this world. I trust him. I met a couple of models and it is a special hard place to be. competition is fierce, jealousy, to be physically perfect 24/7...

I also think Peter is extremely smart and studied all avenues of who to achieve his goals. One of them was exposure. One of them was The Bachelor TV show.

I am not saying that he did not fell for Rachel. At episode 6, I only saw him making the first move to kiss her once. So at least some attraction there. But the recent IG posts from the top 2 and rachel, confirmed to me (if I ever needed to be) that Peter is F2. I do not think he is trying to send messages other than he is happy, his promotions and with to increase the number of followers as quickly as possible because from the finale to the announcement of the next bachelor, the momentum will start to slow down a lot... until the announcement. IMO

Unless we have a huge river cry from F3 or F4, for me Peter has it in the pocket.... the same way he knew since november that he would be part of Rachel's season. IMO

But until the official announcement nothing is certain... eh Luke? I am sure Peter heard of it since he follows this franchise for over a year now (he signed up a year ago) IMO

I think Peter is on a BE READY move right now. He will be in LA where all the decisions are made. He has no attach since he has no lease anymore and his furniture are ready to move to LA anytime. He is giving a I AM READY signal. For me, this direct move to LA is definitely a NEXT BACHELOR whispering... like prods love to make. I just hope it will not be another arie or luke... but since he wants to live back in LA, the risks are minimum. IMO

This is just my opinion. I check IG. I check the tags. I check the type of pictures he is sharing. I check his BL during 5 episodes so far. And my conclusion is just what I wrote above.

ETA to say again good for him to plan his future that well! I wished I was that business smart at his age!!

@HEA IA, that's the way I felt while sleuthing Peter. The clues add up and for Peter IMO they added up quickly.

There are comments on Bryan's IG pic that they have been blocked by Peter. Peter continues to block posters. I have dibs on comparing him to MM (Momma Murray) I get blocking harassing trolls, but here we are, 1 1/2 months after his SM became public, and he has blocked a few already. For someone that gets a ton of swooning SM posters, why does he care about those that mean nothing to him.

Not surprised he blocks people after his comment a few weeks back about people who cross the line in his comments section. I'm all about the crazies getting blocked. JMO.

I saw the one girl who said he blocked her other account. That says enough about her

I've also noticed that JToor tags Cary Fetman quite a bit on the pictures with Peter. So that could be a hint that either a) they were in touch for his suit for the finale; or b) that he might be the next Bachelor...so maybe future contestants may wear some JToor? JMO.

The same way I felt he was stiff since day 1 in order to give nothing negative to the sharks prods to use/air. IMO

Somehow, I feel, without any proof, that he studied this show to the core and is one of the rarest contestant to know exactly what do do, what to say, how to behave, stay away from dramas, be best friend with everyone, never ever give anything away to the prods and probably make very close friends to the crew so they liked him a lot. I see a very calculator guy but not a villain. I see a so much prepared guy that is it quite scary how much he was/is.

His SM is just one took he play like a violin. He knows that only positivity will push him forward. If anybody from the franchise check his SM, they will see ONLY praise and roses and OMGyouarethemostbeautifulandiwantmydaughtertomarryyouifnotmyselfunlessyoulikecougar kind of commments. I mean this guy is put on a pedestal on his IG, it is quite WOW.

So IMO, he cleans, deletes, and carefully check mark all his list to be THE BEST candidate ever for the bach gig

I do not think he excepted to remain that far. I really believe he was not expected Rachel to be so infatuated by him. But he took advantage of the situation (good for him). I am sure he wanted to stay as long as possible but I am not certain he thought more than top 6, hoping for top4 IMO

this is why I do not exclude that we will have a Brooks situation and Peter will go at F4 or F3. Then prods will people everyone of the population to have a MOC and a white man at the finale..... a first.
