and we heard her sisters: been there done that and we are pretty sure she will never do it again.

all her sisters and mom talking about lindsey and the adventures and explorations.... all her blog s about that too imo

so yes. i agree that for love, people are ready to move countries if they have to. But once you did it once and the person had a soul search and took her 2 years to find her peace (on her blog)... then I am not sure this person is ready to compromise again.

regarding the spoiler... i missed this part. i thought RS said: he picked Mikaela and it was over 1 week after.

So, what I find confusing is?  Her sisters saying she will never move from V...was it said that she has a one-way ticket to Australia / moving there?

uh?

she said on her blog that she was going to australia on january 2018 for a while... now what is a while for lindsey, who knows. what are the tourist visa duration for australia for canadian?

i think for her HOME is vancouver and she said it many many times on her IG and blogs... does not mean she does not want adventures elsewhere... it think this is all about her blog. she made a tab about adventures

This Australia trip/thing IMO shows that her sisters can say all they want about her staying in V...as they said "If we have anything to say about that?"  But, that does not mean she can't change her mind or also that her sisters don't know her like they think they do. Just saying???LOL

To me, every bachelor pales in comparison to Matty J at being a player. Chris is being a normal Bachelor IMO, he has to make it seem like a close contest to keep the viewers watching.

They discussed the family difficulties, but seemed to move past.
He offered the FD card despite the sisters...and she accepted.
They discussed the moving and he said he would move to Vancouver...despite his the disappointment of his parents and that he wanted to live in TO.

By the way, have we confirmed that he bought a house in TO? People keep talking about it as if is a fact, but I don't recall any confirmation.

Mik had a really good visit with parents.
Lyndsay's visit with his folks was edited with lots of obstacles...age, moving, etc...and appeared as if she got a lot more grilling and not as welcome reception. Yet despite that, she left smiling so she clearly felt comfortable about the meeting and the parents said they liked both.

Mik's FD was more public, lots of talk of being good on paper, everything is easy, missing the X factor...all edit signs of the F2. Add that to the good MTP, even more of an F2 edit IMO.

Lyndsay's FD was more private. Still had obstacles, but seemed to have worked on them. Issues during MTP. More lust. Again, F1 edit IMO.

Chris is the issue here. He wants Lyndsay and if he is honest with himself he will pick her. If he starts getting cold feet and goes with the good on paper, easy choice, he will pick Mik. That would make sense of the spoiler because, who wants to be second choice. Having said that, going by all the classic editing tricks...who the lead is chasing, obstacles, chemistry, worse HTD and MTP, all point to Lyndsay as F1. I hope he goes for who he really wants...even if they don't make it.

Episode 6 after the group date of 3 sensual senses date and Kait got the rose.....they showed Chris talking with each one of the girls and kissed Catie and Kait but did not show Lyndsey and Chris kissing.  This is where she said that you have my heart.  It was discussed that his reaction was standoffish??? This is an example of the edit and you can't trust what they show.  (Not sure if this was shown on the show tonight) but here is the link to the facebook post on Wnetwork of Chris' talking about Lyndsey on this video you see Chris' true reaction to Lyndsey's declaration.  https://www.facebook.com/wnetwork/videos/10155935801908328/    He smiled and went in for the kiss and pulled her in with his hand on the back of her neck.  (Never shown in the episode)  Edit Edit Edit...don't fall for their tricks.

If Chris' does pick Mik as his F1 (spoilers) then Lyndsey's obstacles were too much for him and Lyndsey (regrets) is the reason it didn't work with M.....IMO

we see what we want to see IMO

During HTD, mikaela told him she fell in love with him and he said: I am very happy to hear it... which is most that he said to any of them so far  IMO

I do not think we can make comparison which one he was the happiest. I think as i said he loved both, differently but both. his head, his heart and his little chris were a bit too loud for him and all the obstacles were messing with him.

IF it was soooooo clear that Lindsey was the one, then why the break down? why the crying? IF it was a done deal..... which IMO was not.

His mother confirms, he gets quiet, he bottles it up inside. Chris mentions something is missing with Mik.

OTOH he doesn't want her to give up on him. He reflects that he lets good relationships fall apart because he doesn't open up. He says he is falling in love with Mik. The lead always has two difficult choices, and usually "always knew they were the one" at the end. I can see this going both ways. I can see Chris realizing he never allows himself to fall in love and therefore realizes he is in love with Mik and that's what was missing.

What's the issue with Lindsay? Has there ever been a conversation between them about not expressing true feelings, or has he discussed the age thing with her?
F
I'm glad there was a lot of mention of Lindsay's HTD and how hard they were on Chris. It doesn't matter how much the sisters tried to do damage control. Sometimes it's easy to say it was edit, but I know for a fact, Kevin's mother was not an edit issue, she was a witch, and that's exactly what was shown, same for Lindsay's family IMHO.

Sorry if this has been discussed, I don't recall.
