Arie Luyendyk Jr - Lauren Burnham - Bachelor 22 - Discussion #3

IDK. I think the heat of the moment has had some major bad outcomes including it's share of dead bodies. 
There comes a point of no return. 
Best to disengage, walk away, call it day and eat more ice cream.

May I just say I'm so happy there is activity in the sleuthing thread for Becca so that I'm not sucked into the drama? Over this couple before they even got started. At least they keep us entertained during the off-season though, eh? We need something to talk about to ad nauseum! JMO. ;)

A lot of men are “Azzes”  I know mine can be too.

Both Arie and Ross are childish little snots.

I could cuff them both over the head like a mother. And drag them by their ears TIL they snap out of the stupid poop.

But do i wish Unhappiness and a life without love for either ?

No!     I  hope and Arie and Lauren make it and have a great time together.   So far that is what I am seeing.   Do I think he is an AZZ sometimes.  YA!  

Do I think he has made some mistakes in life. Ya.  

Do i hate him and wish him harm and hurt.  NO!

I roll my eyes and move on.  His antics or anyone’s do not affect my life.  (Or is it effect )

It looks like Arie and Lauren's wedding date changed from June 28th, 2018 to 2720. Weird? It probably meant to read 2020, but still odd. I am thinking that either it got hacked or a fan created this page because I honestly don't think they would have done this themselves. They even said they would get married by the end of the year. Hope this finds everyone well and hope you all had a good Easter!

I think Lauren changed the page so it would no longer mention herself and her ex. I'd say that was her main objective. I assume she'll update it once she has a date and location, she set the year to 2720 so it was clear there's no definite date as of yet. All IMO.

Bump. Sorry.

That just doesn’t fit Arie, imo, even wearing cardigans.

I’m wondering what happened to the guy I liked in Emily’s season. My guess now is that he never was that guy. Disappointing.

Good guess to me

Blue hoodie guy's character stinks, IMO.

ITA with all of the above. So sad but true. I've never been more wrong about someone from this franchise.

Well guess Arie shouldn't mind if his neighbor is spreading stuff around SM if he has been doing it for years imo

Didn't he just do it once on Sm vs almost everyday the idiotic lunatic neighbor has been posting some doozy stories that are extremely far fetched IMO

Stone_Hedge wrote:To some ^^^^^ turnabout is fair play. IF Arie didn’t start something (if), would there be any turnabout ? What goes around comes around. Karma and all that.  Just reconfirms what I’ve now come to think about him. Oh boy this is real life imitating a soap opera

Sorry, but how do we know who started what. There is only one post on SM dating back to 2013 from Arie. Was that because the lunatic stupid beyond words neighbor already had it in for him and began the problems way back then?? I know that it may be hard to believe that Arie may have some good in him but with how he is with Lauren, loving and attentative as I saw it throughout the season....that's the positive part I want to lavish on and feel good about. IMO

I didn't know that we had a source besides the crazy looped out neighbor(BTW, forgive me but that guy is totally gone. He's too flipped out for me taking anything that he says seriously!)

Just a stupid person trying to get attention and far be it from me to believe one second of what crap story the neighbor is feeding. I am not going to be silly enough to believe that crap because IMO that neighbor is so full of it.

I guess anything negative for negativity sake is what's fun for some. I prefer to see the positive in what Lauren and Arie are doing. There is so much love and fun happening between them IMO.

My whole post is IMO

IMO Having a neighbor like Arie who doesn't follow the HOA rules and acts like an A##  could turn you into a nutcase!   Having said that I think the neighbor should just let it be.   Arie will always think he is entitled so putting this kind of  info out there won't change anything IMO.

IMO, there are a lot of people in the world that act like they are entitled....this neighbor for one.  He thinks he's entitled to a pitty party and trying to get major attention because his neighbor is famous.....that's laughable IMO.  Talk about negativity.  that nosy idiotic neighbor really needs a hobby in life, IMO

GuardianAngel wrote:That comparison article IMHO is horrible. The fact that there is someone out there that approved such an article, is pretty disturbing to me. There are enough real serial killers where families have lost their loved ones under brutal circumstances, that's totally uncalled for IMHO.

I find it pretty redicilous myself.....

Big Q. Does Arie now censor Lauren from reading the internet and reading that Reddit thread, just like he censored  her from the finale? Except not really funny, actually pretty sad. IMO

IMO there was nothing to censor or hide in the finale. All in all Arie did get a favorable edit as it was clear he loved Lauren more.

The whole neighbor thing is beyond creepy, the guy is photographing them, while getting egged on by a bunch of hateful Internet trolls who love every minute of it and encourage him to go even further. Hopefully this creep is dealt with by the HOA, and hopefully other people will speak out against this invasion of privacy as well. All IMO.

How in the world can we believe the neighbor with all his stalkerish attitude, things said, and general bad behavior. This creep really does need to be dealt with! IMO

Aria wrote:Okay, this neighbor is cray cray and Arie is an a**hole (calling someone a "F*G", really? So we can add "usage of offensive, homophobic slurs" to that massive list of husband-material qualities Arie possesses), but Neighbor Wars has become my new favorite off-season show. IMO.

f** is also used to call someone annoying, so it's not necessarily homophobic, but a synonym for pr*ck.

I suspect that Arie having called someone a f** is not a deal breaker for Lauren, so maybe we should add to Lauren's naughty list as well.

I mean, I think it's pretty well documented that Lauren's a bird (IMO) so...
She doesn't strike me as the type to have strong feelings about anything (especially bc she's not gay and it doesn't affect her so who cares) and from all the stories Arie's not the type of man you can check or else you'll immediately be replaced so they're in a great situation. He's still wrong as f*ck for saying it though. All Jmo.

I guess I missed all the well documented evidence but can you fill me in....what the heck means that Lauren is a bird??  TIA

Maybe it’s just me... but I don’t like the mass deflection off Arie’s behavior as “Yeah... but this guy is crazy... nothing else to see here.” You know what? Yeah. Maybe this guy is crazy. Maybe. Also maybe not. He could be fed up with Arie, and although clearly going about it in an immature way, have legitimate beefs against the guy. Two wrongs don’t make a right. And just because this guy is spewing dirty laundry on reddit, doesn’t whitewash Arie’s wrong-doings and make everything he did A-okay.

JMO


ETA: And regarding censoring, clearly Arie disagrees with you about the edit, cause he did, in fact, censor her. Either that or Lauren decided to turn a blind eye on her own. Didn’t look like the sharpest crayon with that decision. They definitely made a big deal of censoring her from watching it though.

I am personally not a part of the mass deflection but yea, the neighbor is absolutely nuts!  IMO.  I also don't know what PROOF we have of what is being said other than a tweet way back in 2013, then this Redditt thing where the neighbor is offering his thoughts with no proof whatsoever.  So question to anyone.....why is it that we as a group should believe him??  IMO that guy is absolutely nuts, idiotic and as a neighbor, if I was his I'd be afraid for myself with his stalkerish tendancies, and for an abundant other reasons....IMO.

As far as the censoring as it's been called, IMO, Lauren does have a brain and if she does choose not to watch it, then IMO, that's up to her but me or anyone else calling her out on it or calling her names for it may not be justified....IMO.

The bottom line is nobody is perfect.  We all have done or said things that we shouldn't have...even on this board.  I just don't understand the neighbor war and why they are posting about it online.  Dude sounds jealous to me.  Let.it.go.  It's Arie's life.  Neighbor needs to mind his own beeswax.  Jmo.

The thing is, Arie inserted himself in the neighbour's life, going after her when she was dating the neighbour, sending her texts telling her she could do better than the neighbour, tweeting about the neighbour, calling the neighbour the f word. IMO the neighbour is doing to Arie what Arie already did to him. Without the bigoted slurs, that's all Arie. Jmo.

Since when do we have PROOF of Arie going after the neighbor's GF?  OR are we just holding onto what this idiotic stalkerish guy says as law and what he says is exactly what happened(Scary thought to me that we are taking this guy at his word with his attitude for sure.....)??  IMO, there is so much of what he's trying to sell that as a human being, I just can't buy.  That guy has so many rocks loose, IMO

BKay wrote:I did read it and my take is that both posts were written by the same person, not one by the neighbor and the other by his gf. I am still laughing because the content is so silly and childish. @Mommyof2 like you, I just don't have time for all the negativity.

Negativity surrounding this couple is so fluent and abundant everywhere on SM and forums alike.  It's crazy how a couple from this franchise is wished so much ill will by the many out there.  IMO, this franchise already makes it hard for couples to succeed, then to deal with all this crap from a lunatic neighbor that wants to make a name for himself, to comments on IG/twitter to comments made on forums.  It's absolutely crazy how much negativity is out there....IMO

my whole post is IMO

Every once in a while I wander into this thread and then ask myself why? Whoever said this thread should be locked is right on!! The whole discussion of Arie and his neighbor really doesn't have much to do with the title of the thread. The whole thing is just plain sad. Don't shoot the messenger. JMHO.
