Be careful of the things you say. I would like put forth a scenario. Let's say Becca is 'ette, she has to sign a contract and in that contract she has to pick someone in the end. She gets 30 guys, she finds her one and get to the F3 or F2 but then he decides to bail and can't go through with it. What will she do? There's many more scenarios JMO

Or if she gets one who wants to propose and one who is not ready for a proposal but wants to start a relationship (who is wildly popular with the public).  She loves them both.  How does she choose and will the fans still love if she "chooses" wrong.

I take it as it's both their lives, nothing to do with mine and no reason for me to personally be a jerk towards them.  Some of those comments out there are IMO going beyond the scope of sensibility on SM.

To me, this is only a week/2 with very few safe house visits and no real basis to their relationship so far.  Therefore IMO, there is  a huge difference between Arie and talking about Bryan, Jordan and Shawn.  Actually IMO, there is really no comparrison because of the length of time we are referencing here.  with Arie we are talking about a mere few weeks and seeing each other a very few times compared to months, and years that those relationships have been going.  IMO

The spoiled F1 gets all the support, even when they aren't the actual F1. Chantal had a huge fan base, including Emily when she said she believed the spoiler during airing.

I just wish he would go back under his rock.  But since he apparently can't get a date, all he can do is talk about people who do date.  

Yes you are correct @Bet2Win, the spoiled F1 gets treated differently be it here or other SM venues.  Then when something turns out differently other than the spoiled results, the SM and forums go wild with it all.  

If there weren't spoilers and we just sleuthed out the results on our own, IMO things could really be different.

Yes it would and it was before RS. There was fun in the sleuthing. Now the lead is almost labeled a criminal. JMO

Arie and Lauren also liked the pic. I have no doubt she will be the next lead! I wonder if we’re going to see heartbroken or over it from her. If the next lead, hopefully it’s over it!

I agree. Ready for another strong, take-charge, Bachelorette, really cute & funny guys, and some great date locations. This season will be hard to tops for scenic views though -- Paris to Peru with Italy in between, wow! That's the way to do it!

Amen I am so done with these wimpy bachelors, I skipped both Nick and Arie's seasons, and I doubt I will be watching Ben 2.0. The Bachelorette is definitely my show to watch and the female leads never disappoint. So excited for Becca!

Lauren responded, I see how it is, @chrisbharrison.  

I don't see where CH tagged anyone but this. Is there a s/shot anywhere?

chrisbharrison That feeling when you’re always the third... or in this case, the fourth wheel #TheBachelor #HostLife
