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

Wow! This paragraph right here from her blog tell me everything I need to know about her thoughts on Peter!

Even after an almost perfect day I still had doubts if he would be ready to start his own family in a matter of weeks. That was the struggle, the push and pull in my relationship with Peter, he was giving me just enough to stay around without taking a stance on his feelings. Leaving Dallas, I knew I needed a definitive outlook on what Peter wanted for himself and what he wanted with me.

she's going to make this afr so messy and for no reason. Girl, check yourself!! You're going to walk away with Bryan and everything will be fine, don't make yourself look mean and angry and petty! Oh well. I'll enjoy it

Ohhhhh, Astrid! More loose lips! The host handled it well though!

I don't think she would have gone there, but it must suck since she was so gracious about both Peter and Dean in the beginning and they've both been sh*tting on her relationship with Bryan (both on- and off-screen). And, I do think she probably feels used watching that back and becoming suspicious about his yearbook quote that he never wanted her and it was all about the Bachelor for him. I feel bad for her, because if she comes off as anything but the kindest, most gracious, groveling lead ever at the AFR, she is going to get dragged by the Peter fanatics, but I also kind of don't blame her?

IMO.

Seeing how unwavering he was about his hopes for an engagement and how protective of him I got made my family realize the love was real. wrote:

She keeps showing her hand all over the place. Lol. She basically cannot write about this man without making it clear she loves him and that the love is mutual. Her protecting him. Him being unwavering as he got grilled. Reciprocal. Mutual. She just... Continues not to be unclear.

Oh, and she summed up Peter how I'd thought. And she lived it, so it's nice to know I'm not crazy for reading his actions like such.

ATFR is going to be so good. Or bad. Whichever way you look at it .

Damn.

I agree. JoJo IMO has always been a class act and upbeat/happy. Hopefully a friendship will form. It was kind of her.

And she went so hard for him with that knowledge. So she made her decision outright. And those of you said, she was gone for Bryan early were right. It was really over a long time ago then.

There are reasons those who sleuthed things early on and called it early on did so. From both ends.

I don't think Rachel is being petty or calling out Peter in the blog in anyway. I think she is having one of those aha moments watching the show back and her thoughts about Peter's stance is no different than what some people have expressed on the forum. Whether it is god, bad or neither is up to personal interpretation JMO

She said Rachel is planning an engagement party in Dallas and after that they are going to Miami for another engagement party. I don't think she realised she gave away the winner. @28 mins mark . She was doing so well

omg Astrid    So hilarious - I love it!

btw has anyone listened to the Ben/AI podcast? Becca was sub co-hosting for Ben and JoJo called in. She was asked who she thought would win and (paraphrasing) said she thought B/R has great chemistry and she could see them together. I like that she was her usual sweetheart self and didn't say anything negative unlike a lot of Bach alums. IMO she probably empathises with Rachel re. all the questioning/negativity re. her projected F1.

[/quote   wow

I get that she's mad and had her aha moments or what have you but he's the "loser" here so she's fighting an un-win-able battle imo. The majority of audience aren't going to like the woman with the 100k ring dragging the guy she dumped.

It's her choice to do whatever she wants, I will love, love, LOVE it, don't get me wrong but it's the worse choice for her imo and a big mistake, if this is the route she's going to go.

All JMO

@coolangel, we nailed it and she is over his games. Good for her. I am a bit surprised if TPTB want him as the bachelor they let that in. I think he is getting Luke Pelled and I personally am enjoying it.

I think if Peter plays nice she might be okay.  But if he pulls his saintly Peter crap, I think the chill will leave the building. Again, I am team Rach and think Hypocrisy Peter deserves it. JMO.
