Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - Episode 7 - July 10 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

@Alanna, I guess it's a matter of perspective and personal preferences.

I don't like smothering, clingy guys all over me. If I were Rachel on a date with Bryan, I'd have a fly swatter ready in my back pocket for when he swooped down on me.

In those pic it seems like Rachel isn't even touching Peter. In the ones with Bryan there hands are intertwined

See I love when guys are all smothering as you say.

The shade is real

@Hotmomma Great post. She is a done deal with Bryan and has been since she met him. The rest of the season is cementing her connection to him. IMO.

All of this post !
Backing into someone is much more intimate than just by their side. It implies a level of comfort because your body is exactly positioned into his (intimate) body area. With her and them that just comes second nature and with ease.

Right, we're all different and so it should be! If everyone was like me, the smothering guys wouldn't have anything to do with themselves.

I think it depends on whether one likes to be smothered or not if they like the person or not. Rachel since epi 1 has no problems being smothered, if that what you want to call it. I call it attraction, affection, demonstrating his feelings. She doesn't ask for anything, he just does it.

If Rachel didn't like it, she wouldn't be engaging back starting from the kiss that swept her off her feet.

ITA but I'm watching (or trying to) from Rachel's perspective and she loves being mauled in public and manhandled imo. Right, wrong, good, bad, or indifferent, she's the one choosing and that's what she wants and will choose in the end imo. Peter and "his respect" are going to get him nowhere with this lead from what I've seen.

After watching the preview an embarrassing number of times, I feel that the scene with Bryan and Rachel where he is wearing the denim shirt is the LCD.  He is declaring he has given it his all, and then he walks up the steps behind her as she is leaving.  All the voiceovers are misleading, as usual, I think the voiceover of her sending someone home and of her wearing the gray sweater - they are not showing that. And as she said, we won't be able to tell. Even Bryan is not sure, he's serious, rubbing his eyes, etc.  IMO

Then we see Eric in the white t-shirt and black coat and doesn't it look like she is leaving him?  Which means LCD?  Because she is walking away and he is entering a room. He is unsure too where he stands. IMO

So for me this appears to have Eric and Bryan as F2.  What do you all think? Just all my opinion.

It's not about me for any of the leads, it's about them whether I like it or not.
I don't have to wake up next to these people. Or at least I haven't yet. That I know of.
If Rachel didn't like Bryan's kissing, I would think we would see definite body language discouraging it.
When someone does not like PDA, as in what took place in Breitling, there are definite ways it can be dealt with quickly. It was not. She encourages it. She likes it. IMO
So whether I like, Joe Schmo likes it or anyone else likes it, IMO is moot.
