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

BlackHalo wrote:I still don't think Peter's issues have anything to do with Bryan getting Rachel. Some men are just intimidated by confident men. I don't know Peter's background but everything I am reading here about his past insecurity issues would point to that.

I don't know him personally, but I wonder if Peter some days even likes himself. Sometimes, when talking about another person you don't like, it says more about you than it does the other person, especially if there's no valid reason and the person hasn't done anything to you personally.
There are people I don't like and some who don't like me. I don't create space for them in my life, especially if they don't mean anything to me.
I don't have a problem with Peter not liking Bryan and even basically telling him to his face on the show. My problem is the post-show SM stuff. The show's been over for more than two months, yet he still finds time to IMO shade Bryan with SM likes. Something is not right there.
IMO he's still got some growing and healing to do, and IF he comes to that realization one day, I hope he stays far away from this or any other reality show.

Peter thinks he is better than Bryan and is angry that he lost what was clearly a competition in his mind. I truly feel his bitterness is that Bryan "won" and he "lost". Peter is the embodiment of beauty is skin deep. Peter is shallow and boring. Beyond his good looks shell is a petty petulant entitled issue riddled man-child. IMO.

I think the ATFR will have some conflict because Peter will not be able to refrain from making it all about Peter and IMO Rachel is not going to play pity party with this Tool.

I am going with the theory she let Peter go the night of his LCD.

"I was still holding on to the other person because there were times I thought it could be him. And then I just kind of had to make a big decision and truly follow my heart and not be scared of what I really want for myself," she said.

"I knew it, but I was running away from it because that's what I do in real life," Lindsay said. "I run away from the one who is good on paper -- the one who has it all together -- and I run toward the one that's more complicated, and who I can fix and we can work on it together."

"That was my thing: if it's so easy, it's boring or something's not right," she continued. "Life is hard so why does my relationship have to be hard at the same time? We will have hard moments -- we're two different people -- but why does it have to be so hard? Why can't it be easy? And let me just tell you: it's not boring."

I love Peter but their relationship is way too much work already.  Way to go Rachel! I love it when people move past destructive behaviors. I especially love it when Bachelorettes change their patterns on this show to find love. I was screaming at Jillian not to choose Ed because he was what she always chose. Even her friends from home predicted she'd choose Ed.  Hopefully Peter will end his destructive ways on his season of TB.

I'm very happy for her. She's been a great Bachelorette!
