Bekah has that attraction that some very young women do to an older man and being flattered by his interest and he is flattered by her interest as well.  I heard a podcaster say being with a much younger woman is like having a pogo stick - it is insanely fun and exciting for a little while but then you tire of it.  I think that is what will happen with Arie.  He will realize she is fun for the moment but not the stuff of long term and he will let her go.

I think he likes her a lot and won't let her go until he finds out how young she is. There are several who are less mature. Is it possible she will be the F2, the second woman he tells he loves her? He has said in every interview he told two women.

Would Bekah's age be a concern if #NotArie was the bachelor? .

I don't think that he loves her at all. I think it is the excitement that she brings - that excites him but he also seems aware that there is no substance to the feelings he has.

This is why men like young women, they bring energy and excitement but it gets tiresome.  Let's see what he does. I think Bekkah is there for producer drama, not for Arie but he is definitely playing along.

She has a lot of single life dating life to experience. They are at a different point in their lives. Speaking from experience. I was married had a child and divorced by 28 yrs old, that's a lot of running a household looking after a baby/toddler and working all at the same time. Met someone 13 years older than me. We were together for 15 yrs.
