Colton Underwood & Cassie Randolph - Bachelor 23 - Discussion

Whereas the couples that get the "they're not real, they won't last" have no expectations from anywhere, no fans to please. Imho Cassie has a healthy attitude with social media. She already took a week off, because the hate was getting to her. Imho she doesn't seem that attached to it all.

interestingly, I just watched a clip on YouTube about that newest couple from UK bachelor. One of the most top voted comments was comparing them to Cassie and Colton. Cassie and Colton didn't seem as suitable, wouldn't last etc. But as far as I know, that couple is already broken up, whereas Colton and Cassie seem on a good place, same page. I only mentioned that other couple, because of the fan comment, and how wrong they can be. Jmo.

Actually the couple is still together according to their IG stories and to me, seems to be real.

IMHO getting engaged doesn't or shouldn't, break up a couple. Realizing that they were in a bubble and are not compatible should be the reason IMO.

Colton and Cassie knew early on how they felt about each other. It's been several months since filming ended and we now know they saw each other almost every week. That in itself was a good start! It's during that time that the couples that don't make it realize it's not going to work.

In some cases even before FRC airing ends.

IA. Isn’t Australia the most successful country of all?
Someone (was it Nick?) said that Colton turned his season into Paradise by removing the pressure of an engagement and leveling the field (in fact he handed over the decision to Cassie). Also, in other seasons the F1 has had trust issues because the lead has been on the fence (pun intended) regarding who to choose, and possibly sleeping with multiple people. Cassie can feel absolutely safe.

There is still Cassie’s age and the distraction of 1.6 million (!) followers, but I feel that an F1 who is grounded enough to do school work on the plane to GMA and the press round will be able to navigate the upcoming turmoil pretty well.
I am optimistic. JMO.

...and who was mature enough not to cave under the pressure of an expectant engagement. I can think of many former early 20 somethings who would have put morals aside and accept an engagement for the notoriety. I think their family and friends will keep them grounded. With Colton's charity, he has the experience in media and promotions. I would think he has good people who can guide them on how to take advantage of those 1.6 - 1.9 million followers! Has there ever been a F1 with so many followers? Those are amazing numbers.

Maybe start by apologising publicly to @CassieRandolph for all the things you said about her..including mimicking her 'immature' voice good luck with that.

Luckily, if Caston want to do a “Story of Us” they can just sit down with Saige.

Good reply by Batch Patch IMO.
