If only! I have never been this invested so please tell me; are people usually this divided on who is going to win?  I feel like everything is going to go nuts on the 7th. 

@Chgohighlife No, people are not always this invested about who is going to win.
Things will not go nuts on the 7th. LOL Hopefully the world will spin the same way on it's axis. All will be the same. Hopefully.

I remember some seasons being the same such Jef1/emily/arie and maybe emily/Brad/chantal. It all depends how the top 2 contestants are loved and hated. This season IMO was a bit OTT imo.

This season reminds me of Ali season. Roberto/Bryan "Latin lover, smooth" and, Chris/Peter " good down home boy". A major difference was Roberto and Chris appeared to like each other on the show and were friends after the show. I think Bryan is a Grown man who knows what he wants and goes after it. Peter on the other hand is fine with just being adored by women. IMO

Note:the seasons are edited alike, Roberto and Bryan share some qualities, however, Chris and Peter are very different men. JMO

So excited for the finale but sad to see the season end

@coolangel I love your gif. Exactly how I feel too

@Shadow I don't see Bryan as being like Roberto all that much other than being f1 and Latino, imo. Roberto was very popular and was even liked by a lot of Chris fans (like me). The same could be said for Chris that season. Both Bryan and Peter seem to be divisive, whether by editing or personality. Roberto's edit was more if he was too perfect while Bryan's seems to be if he's sincere. I was very happy that Ali was able to let Chris go without him coming to the FRC so am hopeful the same happens this time. I doubt very much that he would have proposed either although I don't recall him being asked. It certainly wasn't made a big deal of like it is this season. All JMO.

albean,

I tend to agree with your thoughts about Bryan being like Roberto. I will say that Roberto was my personal favorite that season, but I also really liked Chris. It was hard with two great guys as F2. I think Chris and Peter are very different people. As you said both Bryan and Peter seem to be divisive, be it editing or personality or whatever. I watched most of this season unspoiled, so I have been playing catch up by reading everything in the last week or two. I knew nothing about Bryan supposedly being insincere or a player or what he said on the Ellen show. I did not find him to be insincere at all. I think with Bryan what you see is what you get. Roberto was supposed to be too good to be true.

I was grateful that Ali was able to let Chris go before the FRC. I also hope that it plays out the same way with Peter. It's interesting that you say that you don't think Chris would have proposed. I think this whole proposal thing has been blown way out of proportion this season. As always, JMO.
