For me to truly fall in love with a couple and root for them, I need to feel like what they have is extremely special and unique to just the two of them. From how it looks like, and even from what Bryan himself has said, this is exactly how he is in every relationship. So why should I believe Rachel is any different?

I appreciate how Rachel can take a picture with someone from the opposite sex, put her arm around them and smile. Unlike Miami Mack that feels he can't even touch the opposite sex for a picture. IMO

She's not imo but I think after being so tough her whole life, she wants to be lulled by the thought of a fairytale and things being all peaces and cream. Prove us wrong, B!!! I wanna be wrong so bad.

IMO most of the cast members are fans of the show, I don't trust anyone who goes on this show and says they are not fans or never seen it, Yes there may be some who aren't regular viewers but I believe most have seen the show before they show up. 
Bryan is rather honest to admit he is a fan of the show unlike someone who has been wanting to be on since high school but turns around and play dumb like he had to check the authenticity of the HS year book.

IMO That's coz Rachel won't be called a Player even when she does that unlike Bryan who might be accused of flirting up a storm.

All JMO

I think this is a smart move on his part. I can imagine the comments on SM if he touched another female. IMO it's called preventative measures.

Well, I see Bryan putting his $$ where his mouth is.  From where I sit, it looks like he is anxiously awaiting the chance to
start his future with Rachel.   Has there been any other bachelor, that has put up their home for rent, or sale, so they
could be with their fiancé.    

Brian makes me excited about where things are headed with him and Rachel.  Not only on the show, but after as well.

And color me clueless, as to why Brian should be criticized for not hugging, touching, or looking giddy with a female 
fan.  Is it wrong for him to show respect for Rachel???   Wow!

Did she say she had never seen the show or watched it before she was Nick's season? I remember she saying she was skeptic that it works. I tend to think she was a fan enough to take time off "lawyering" go on the show.

Seriously. Talk about damned if you do and damned if you don't. Now Bryan gets judged for not wrapping his arm around random female strangers for fan pictures.

I would prefer my fiancé keep his hands to himself while he is unable confirm he is mine. JMO. Better safe than sorry.
