Only thing I noticed when looking at them is that you only see Mik in that dress she has on when talking to Chris ... with Lindsey we see her in that tank in all the pics except one .... she’s doing a PI in a black top that has off the shoulder arms.   This probably means nothing but it could also mean that Mik is gone after that afternoon and Linds sticks around and does at least 1 PI before FRC.  He does get dressed up and buys a ring ... so I’m going to assume at least one girl is still around for FRC   Guess we’ll find out next week.

Is this the one you are talking about??




BTW:  In knowing how they edited season 1 and seeing that a lot of this season is mirroring it to a point, IMO, this is clearly showing that Mikaela leaves and it is Lyndsey and Chris in the end.all IMO

Ya that’s the one ... don’t remember seeing her wear that top at any time but could be wrong. It just stood out to me.

^^ this is the one I am thinking was taken after the finale

she is wearing a lot of makeup and both girls never did... this is typical finale makeup IMO

IMO, like what @northernviewer said, I am inclined to think that this happened before the FRC. You know how they usually have ITM's done right before they go to the RC

This reminds me of Tim and April last date.

Where April told him do what feels right for you and I will do what's right for me in the moment.

@Pinkgirl Who or what reminds you of Tim and April?

So during the SC I made this morning, something came to my mind that I think will happen at part 2


chris loved both girls. we know that. he told them so. confirmed by mikaela during the podcast.

therefore, right before the finale, he had NO IDEA which one he truly preferred as he loved them both. regardless of the reasons why this and that.

however his "I DO NOT WANT TO END ALONE" stood out for me

This is IMO when his brain took over the analyses stuff etc and he put the love aside. he became extremely practical... therefore for him the logical one became Micaela.

I told you that at MTP, he made his mind. I believe that seeing and talking with his parents pushed him to decide in favor of Mikaela.

So during the last talk, he had a change of mind regarding moving to Vancouver. Lindsey could not accept this because she "was very clear with him" that she would not move, because he told her just 1-2 days ago that "he figured it out that if someone would move, it would be him", and all of a sudden he has a change of mind about it.

At this point, Lindsey could not accept any proposal. she would not move to Toronto.

Yes, it is possible that chris took the coward way and found THE excuse he knew that Lindsey would never bend...

---

The "this is not a joke".... for me it makes sense that chris told mikaela that he did not know who to choose. That he loved them both. That he was torn. OR yet again, he told her that he was not sure of her, that he had doubts she could be the one or that he had doubts that lindsey could be the one.

This would not be the response mikaela would want right before a potential proposal.... so she left the conversation very upset, and we will see her thinking on the beach....

---

move forward to the finale

chris understand why she is angry...... and this is Lindsey. She thought she had it in the pocket, and already made plans.... and his reasons at the rejection will be that he cannot move to Vancouver and he does not want to have another long distance relationship.... which was definitely talk with his father during MTW: WHY do you choose long distance relationship all the time. You are too old for that...... For me the LONG DISTANCE relationship will be his excuse to eliminate Lindsey, with a change of mind that he cannot move to Vancouver anymore. If her parents open a crack, his parents sealed the deal.

this goes with the PI with Lindsey with her make up and black top.... which IMO was taped right after the finale.... she is still furious and angry and upset. We see no tears and this match the "I understand why she is angry".

The I hope it is not too late goes with him looking at the proposal ring. he had the ring but mikaela told him before he could propose that she was not ready to accept a proposal under the circumstances, that she needed more time in real world blah blah blah

Mikaela was not angry when she left chris, she was very upset... she even cried about all her dreams of being the girl of his dreams just went to toilet...

Mikaela after her thinking on the beach will decide to do not accept the proposal but accept to date him


end of the story.
Chris became very analytic at the end and just picked the one who was in Toronto. None of the girls was the girl of his dreams. He just did not want to end alone.

and this confirms RS spoilers that their couple did not make the long run. her recent podcast and the live i did not listen.... she is not bitter about the experience versus lindsey who is very bitter. mikaela was the F1 but SHE made the decision to break up and move on. Lindsey on the other hand was completely blindsided. There is tiny possibility that chris and mikaela are/were together again at one point but the 6-12 months move? Looks like she is preparing another move to Cali or Chicago???

out of the 3... I think Chris is in a relationship but not necessary with either mikaela or lindsey. definitely not lindsey, mikaela... maybe but I doubt it now. IMO he was in the bach bubble and thought that he had to pick someone, prods pushed him to do so... when in fact, he all needed some more time to figure it out which girl was a good match or no one.

How are these girls allowed to just freely say they are moving to x location for x amount of time. Neither of them is with Chris IMO. This season was an unfortunate waste to time. JMO.

they are young and have a lot of pride. they want to show a IDONOTCARE and jaded attitude

BlackHalo,
IMO this is a llesson Chris is teaching the franchise. If they want to be successful they must screen leads better. Chris is a nice guy but he’s prettty inexperienced with relationships because baseball and recuperating from injuries have been the focus of his life. This is a man who even played off season in the. DR. He doesn’t trust enough to open up and really be in love with anyone but, IMO he loves both girls. He cares for Lyndsey but,certainly not enough to move cross country. I saiid that days ago.

IMO He doesn’t trust himself because he doesn’t know the romantic, grounded, stay in one place side of himself. He just knows he. does not want to be alone, Lyndsey excites him and Michaela soothes and reassures him. He also knows he has postponed as long as he can and now he must complete his transition to real life. It will not be easy, IMO

Lyndsey is not in love with him, IMO. Her hard and fast no moving rule proves it. She is not willing to move to Toronto but she stayed in NYC until her heart was broken and now she’s going to Australia. She did not even try to develop a compromise ((so far). He is so confused and conflicted he lied about his willingness to move and she counted on that. None of the three can count on anything. JMO

@HEA that's some analysis but feeds right into my opinion that any obstacle in moving forward lies within Chris. I said several days ago best to remain friendly with these 2 girls and have Chris discover his passions before trying to make a relationship work too. Hope Canada isn't too angry with him when it's all over in a week!

I wonder if the show is possibly in the can due to the bust of Jasmine's season and now this. It's embarassing. Aren't they selling all the set furniture? It's like they truly don't care anymore.
