Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - Episode 8 - July 17 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Rachel needs name tag with some of those names in that family.

Peter cannot force it with Rachel, doesn't mean he won't be totally smitten and gaga and obsessed with his f1 if he becomes the lead imo. I don't think he's some evil genius that stopped himself from falling in love if he really wanted and fell for Rachel. Plenty of f1's have showed up for just the fun and randomd-ness and stayed, despite their better judgements , for the woman imo.

I honestly think 2 of Rachel's final 4 sucked big time.
Eric would be a great TB candidate and I think she might have a decent shot with her F1 Bryan.

No doubt to me the only one Rach was in love with was Bryan

I have nothing but love for big Rach but she also was similar to Peter on her seasons (her own words) with Nick IMO and i don't have an issue with her getting the gig she has now It's how the works with the recycled leads IMO.

But she wasn't that closed to the getting engaged thing. She was just skeptical of the process.
Here Peter seems not even there IRL. Like his mom said, he can commit and have children right now. And he himself said he just want to be engaged once but at the same time he is saying that there is this amazing connection with her.
I know the result is the same "not saying I'm falling in love" but the source of the reservation is different.
I'm not sure what he wants from this all as of right now if that's more clear.
All jmo

Exactly. Whose to say that he wouldn't find a female version of Bryan for himself.

Poor Dean. Another house that looks much less than the usual mansions.

This is so weird. Looks like cult that just drank the Kool Aid.

My heart aches for Dean having to share his private issues with the world.

The Phoenician purple is blinding.

I'm only through the first 2 HTDs so far.

I liked Eric and his family a lot. I don't see a great connection between Rachel and Eric but am pleasantly surprised to like him which I wasn't sure in the beginning.

ITA with everyone who says Rachel is showing her feelings big time with Bryan. She's all in. I'm still not sure about him long term. The kissing - just ew. I didn't have any problem with his mom but she could be trouble in their relationship, especially if he moves to Dallas. I'll be curious to see where the f1 doubt is because right now it all looks like smooth sailing and that's not normal in this show imo.

I kind of hate how judgemental Rachel seemed about Dean not talking to his dad. Not everyone has a perfect family and sometimes it's better to keep your distance. JMO.

Dean's brother looks like Elan to me.

How many siblings does Dean have?

His siblings seem nice. Are they close?
