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

@Iluvbachette
I traded pms with Bevin for almost a year after her season.  In reality she did a lot more to her leg than the show let on. She had surgery on it when she got home. It had been fractured and the X-rays were not done properly at the time of the show or it had been re-injured during the show. The girls in the house were very kind to her and helped dress her, do her hair and make-up because she was in pain for quite awhile. The edit made the girls look like they hated her. 
Anyway, I got way off topic and apologize. 
I think of stalking and crazed people ala John Lennon, Pres. Regan, Rebecca Schaeffer and then look at how nasty SM comments get and think these are similar weirdos. JMO

So this ex sold her story back in 2012. We know the show tests for HSV-1 (correct me if I'm wrong) so it's impossible that Arie dated hundreds of women like she implies. Half the population has HSV-1 and it's easy to catch if you sl*t around. I guess this is when the playboy rumor got started, and gossip magazines did their research and built upon that legacy. Of course Arie passed the STD test once again in 2017.

IMO, the only thing his passing an STD test shows me is maybe he was actually smart enough to use protection.  It does not mean he doesn't or hasn't slept around a lot.  JMO

They said the had a bunny in the oven, not a bun in the oven. . I wonder if the queen of puns came up with that one. Clever. Imo.

I had a loss too, but I don't take offense at everything people post on the internet. Everyone has different opinions and that's okay. Jmo.

Thankyou for the links, but again, that's one side of the story. Would be interested in Arie's as well.

I think both articles paid their "sources" for info, IMO. Call me jaded but taking articles like that at their word can lead to misunderstandings in my previous experience so I tend to keep an open mind and remind myself of my gramma's line of "take what you read, cut that in half, throw in some salt and cut that into a quarter and then you may have a fraction of the gravely truth". Guess I am gonna follow my gramma's rule. All IMO.


@Aria, IMO, she told us HER version of the truth. I tend to think that the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

To me it wasn’t clever (Imo)  it was stupid and careless. A pattern with these two. JMO

I don't care for pregnancy April fool jokes, they're never funny. Where is the joke? When are we supposed to laugh? IMHO they're just a 'look at us how funny we are omg' levels of attention seeking. Jmo

As for Arie talking about his ex's miscarriage in the past. If the ex didn't agree to it being spoken about on national TV, then Arie had no right to talk about it on national TV. He has every right to talk about it, but privately, Imo. There were two parties suffering the miscarriage, and while Arie can share the experience, and should share it, with people he dates or plans to marry, if the other party of the miscarriage wants it not to be broadcast on TV, then that's it. It's not broadcast on TV. Jmo

IMO this again shows how self centered Arie is, and how everything is about him, his needs and his feelings, screw everyone else.

Seems to me that both of these tabloid articles have based some of their content on quotes given them by Cassie - she can't be all that uncomfortable with the discussion if she's disclosed more (including her real name) than Arie has.
JMHO

She only was forced to respond because Arie talked about the miscarriage on Emily's season. They didn't air it, but RS reported it on his blog and they reached out to her for confirmation.
