Rachel Lindsay & Bryan Abasolo - Bachelorette 13 - Discussion

Rach has her dream man and living her best life as she said. At this point she needs to move on imo and focus on what she has. Anything else is pointless imo and it's getting boring.

I don't think she ever pretended to be this prim and proper lady, it was just the narrative TPTB gave her on Nick's season. If you look through her Instagram posts pre-Bach, she's obviously a work hard/play hard kind of girl.

I do side-eye some of her SM activity with the squad. Not all, just some. Some of her clapbacks are justified and I applaud it but some of it are unnecessary. What I do appreciate about Rachel is that she is not a holier-than-thou hypocrite IMO.

I'm only annoyed bc I want the tea . Say with your chest dammit!

Why on earth would TPBP promise her anything like that. Not everything in her life and petty has to do with tog. Jmo

ITA. I'm fine with the clapbacks, IMO they've been well deserved. The sub tweeting is just annoying. Jmo

And the curiosity is killing me, I want to know what's going on.

@Cocoasneeze Oh, it will come. There will be no questions eventually. TPTB are having a field day with it, enjoying every sniff. JMO

Oh I'm totally curious! I don't think it's the squad though.

we're making guesses right? That was just mine. And My reasoning? look at the timing that tweet went out. The Bach was set to be announced the next day, she wasn't very secretive on here feelings about her not wanting any of her top four guys being bach. In addition, she has a history of subtweeting, liking, and responding when tog is involved. I'm not pulling this out of my behind

Rachel's snarky side irritated me regarding Vanessa. However I realized they were two strong beautiful women in pursuit of the same guy. I was on the fence about Rachel before her season aired. Watching Rachel's season she won me over. Rachel clearly has a snarky side and so do many others including me. I watch these Franchise shows for entertainment so the SM show that follows is just another layer to the RL chapter that follows. Just more entertainment for me. Rachel's squad are all big girl panty types so I expect whomever she is talking about can handle the swipe. I love tea so bring it on.
Rachel in shade throwing or clapbacks to the best of my knowledge has never denigrated any personal aspects of the object of her derision. She displays displeasure without OTT character assassination or physical ridicule. I appreciate her cantor and IMO she has never tried to present a false front of who she really is. She seems to own her personality including the positive and less than positive aspects.
Bryan is a wonderful balance for Rachel in so many ways. Bryan has been exemplary in handling all the blistering and IMO unwarranted negativity and false accusations thrown his way. Maybe with time Rachel will dial back her need shade and take a gentler approach like her Boo. If not....I am here for the entertainment either way.
I also have to say....I love the R&B SM because they are so funny and amusing together. Keep the camera rolling.

I blame DeMario. He's spending too much time with the squad. Plus his LeBron/Melo comparison must be tickling some emotions jmo

When has Rachel subtweeted Peter? she barely tweets. I took a look at her likes and her tweets, she has not liked anything that is about Peter good or bad. The only thing that is close to that are replies on the day of AFTR to people calling her names e.t.c in favour of him.

When has she subtweeted, liked or responded about TOG? She has clapped back at people, but I don't remember anything about TOG.
