Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* Discussion - #12

Why did Peter bring up the WATCH again here? Its not like he was seeing it for the 1st time. The guys saw the watch back in Switzerland.
Is that the magic watch? What was that about? Was he asking Rachel or Bryan or both?

This morning on one of the morning shows they were discussing Instagram and social media bullying. The big thing is to 1)Delete 2) Block 3) Disengage. This is the message IG wants to give it's members.
How ironic.
I was reading some of the troll comments with unfortunately some known usernames that thank goodness no longer are associated with this forum. Sick world.
JMO The best response is like Bryan said:

Life is 10% of what happens to you, and 90% of how you react to it #fact #stayaboveit

The message IMO should be DELETE, BLOCK and DISENGAGE. LEAVE the other person with nothing.

The perfect response.

Ugh, I'm finally going to defend Peter.

I get why he asked. The watch was already a sore point, because like Eric had said earlier, it was basically a trophy Rachel had given Bryan. It was even more telling that Rachel chose to wear a matching watch with Bryan in front of the other guys. Kaitlyn had that matching ring with Nick, but she never wore it when Shawn was there. It's basically a neon sign saying "I'm so going to pick Bryan and I don't even really care to hide it anymore". I think that Peter was probably angry at Rachel, but was taking it out on Bryan. Eric basically nailed it in his ITM, saying that Bryan wearing it was NBD but Rachel wearing it told him everything. IMO.

One of my favourite sayings. You cannot control what people say, but you can control how you react.

With that attitude, he'll be just fine IMHO. These actions tell me what kind of guy Bryan is. There's nothing smooth or fake about him, IMHO he's genuine, and very real, that's who he is. Sometimes nice good people are considered fake, which is a shame IMHO.

@Aria

I think that's why I don't really fault Peter for going buck wild with his response. Eric is clearly the bigger (lulz) man in this situation by choosing not to say much? But... I'd be pissed if the same person telling me to open up and compromise on my beliefs regarding engagement (if the timing of the black top evening date with Peter happens before this hotel clip), shows up days later wearing a token from her relationship with another guy she has clear feelings for. That says A LOT, IMO.

What a classy response. The true MAN in this situation. Mad respect.

Random semi-vague quotes + contemplative selfies are straight out of the Josh Murray starter kit . JMO.

If anyones like Josh it's Peter JMO

@Aria , Thanks. I get it. Bringing it up with Rachel would have been more mature or heck like Eric handled it.

It really is! good for him. Eff Peter and his whinny comments...that's why he'll be left crying on the floor when Rachel dumps him.  

Bryan reminds me of Britt (from Chris season) in some way. She was also very gushy and effusive in how she expresses herself and people judged her for being insincere even though she never badmouth anyone. But after the show, it's obvious to me that's just her personality. She is also very effusive with her current fiance .
