Arie Luyendyk Jr - Lauren Burnham - Bachelor 22 - Discussion #2

mindless wrote:Well at least Arie got Lauren a new free ring when he switched. Lauren couldn't even be bothered to set up a new wedding registry. Maybe they are perfect for each other?

BTW, is Lauren secretly Arie's age or why is she in such a desperate hurry to get married?

But anyone with half a brain cell should realize that if you have a broken engagement and you've seen firsthand how someone you're madly in love with and ready to spend the rest of your life with can turn out to be a jerk, you should take it normal speed with the next guy you date. Especially if that guy has the allegations behind him that Arie does. Maybe not get engaged a few weeks after you start dating and maybe not plan for the wedding to be two months later. To me, it comes from a desperation to get married ASAP, because what's the rush? IMO.

Perhaps she thinks that if they make it legal there's less of a chance he'll get cold feet and dump her.

i actually think Lauren is a smart gal...agreed that she has her own game to "tame" MeArie while she has a chance, ya know, before he goes back to his playa2 habit. She knows it too well....Timing is critical . JMO.

And i also think they both are very smart in "making profits" and in"strategic marketing". They are very well aware that once Becca's season starts to air, which is end of May, their "brand" would likely slowly but surely got vanished out of the spotlight. Hence, June would be perfect timing if they want ABC to cover the wedding, because there is still sufficient time until Becca's FIR and Becca and her chosen one "take over"- so to speak- all the attentions. You gotta strike when the iron's hot...I get it. More power to them  

From the rushed engagement (with the perks of the huge Neil Line's diamond ring)..to the IG stories and frequent SM updates (which contradict what they initially said, i.e. to keep their SMs in the dl),  to what G Lee has said, that MeArie thinks that he is above this Bachelor world, nothing prevent me to think that they are not what they have tried to portray themselves- above everyone else, the "average" contestants who shills.  They are in the same league..if not worse. JMO.

They can admit that they enjoy and need the perks from this silly Franchise and the fans..and that's fine with me. (as i have no probs with gazilion previous and future contestants, including my faves) . Alas...I found they have been acting super ironic and that really is what bugging me...

JMHOAA

We're still waiting for one of Arie's hundreds of 'side-girls' to contact a gossip magazine, they must all be camera shy.

For those who think Lauren is to young to have a family. My parents had 4 children between 21-16 years old. And were married for 62 years. I never had children but was married at 23. If it is right it is just right. I give them lots of support. It's their lives and not mine to judge.

Ok, that's pretty funny.

Yes they did talk about it in there conversation when he broke up with Becca.

As I recall, what was said wasn't described specifically as "closure," although closure was mentioned as a possibility. Arie said the breakup with Lauren was unresolved and continued to bother him.

IMO the rush is trying to show the world they are true love. Like there's something beyond logic that makes them work.

She must think marriage will tie Arie down. Only time will tell.

Why the 28th? Maybe it's the sixth month anniversary of Arie's first call to her, why not the 1st if that's when they first had a conversation? Don't know, AZ? If you're going to register, wouldn't you want some specifics especially if it's only 3 months from now? Isn't the place where to get married one of the first things that couples tie down?

I really don't get Lauren. Why she can't wait to get married. She hasn't even made a mark in this world on her own. Out of all the recent couples from the Franchise, it's like they're trying to prove something too hard. They are beyond logic...it's either they are really it (hope to God they are)!or they'll flame out. All JMO

No, it's millions.

@Mommyof2
Are you sure?  Last I heard they were putting that question on the next USA census. 
Have you been recently accosted by Arie L Juneyah? 
If no, would you be willing to receive free federal immunization?

It actually makes the ex's look bad, imho.  Let the past be in the past and quit giving the play-by-play of your dating life.  Nobody cares that you played footsie under the table with Arie and thought that meant he loved you.  Yeah, I get that she wants to warn the entire world of Arie Joonyah and his player ways...and ahem, line her pockets with a bit of cash, but blabbing to the press only makes her look foolish.   Jmho.

It is completely IMO but I don’t understand why it makes the women look bad. Not every woman who shares her story is just fame hungry. Obviously they all can’t be lying. Arie is just tool and that’s not hard for me to see 

Arie & Lauren are so pathetic it’s hilarious. But it makes everyone else look good though. So maybe we should thank them for being so stupid?  all JMO

HAlso I shouldn’t really be surprised Lauren just edited her last engagement page.. I mean this is the girl who practically begged for a ring two days after her boyfriend broke off a engagement and how could I forget the broken engagement party she threw herself. She’s so tacky and gross  I can’t believe I ever felt a shred of sadness for her. My bad.
