Bachelor In Paradise - Season 6 - Episodes - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

He's not that into you Annalise. Go away now.

Good for Hannah G. She did an excellent job of explaining to Wells that her heart was elsewhere. It was such an honest, up front way of addressing the situation.

Sorry for quoting myself but Hannah may not have done such a super job with Blake?

Does Hannah know about the Blake/Caelyn/Kristina situation?

Seeing Blake’s texts I now see why he was so surprised at her reaction on Paradise! I like him more again and question Caylon a lot more e

Doesn't change my mind about him. Still don't like him. Can't say I like her either though. But, I do think there is more to the story than both sides are saying.

There always is but at least he admits he was wrong. Not saying he is great but a lot makes a lot more sense now. Plus he clearly said no multiple times in those texts and she kept going for more.

I hope she comes clean

Yeah Kristina's D-U-M-B. She's just not a bright girl, has no self respect, and doesn't truly love herself. Blake massively sucks as well because even though he was single, he knew that these women had deeper feelings for him and used them and discarded them like they're nothing, and then is demanding they lie for him so he can look like a good guy. I know he knows what he did was wrong because otherwise he wouldn't have called Caelynn wanting her to keep everything a secret.

IIRC Kristina grew up in Russia, dad not in picture, mom basically abandoned the kids. K was eating mom's lipstick at one point due to hunger. She and her sis were placed in a Russian orphanage. At 16, I think she was adopted by an American couple who live in KY and I believe have been good to her. However, I would not call her dumb. Not surprisingly, it is taking more than the time with the American folks to overcome the childhood she had. Self worth and self love are works in progress for her I think. I root for her every time. She's a hero to me for just showing up to life each day.

@pavalygurl I like your post and I agree with you. I just hope that Kristina has found a good therapist to help with her abandonment issues. I wish she would just stay away from this franchise which never turns out well for her. I don't think she proved anything with Blake last night or helped herself on the date. JMO

Can we establish a separate thread for Dylan's eyes? (Ha!ha!)
He is the cutest thing! So genuine.

Wonder why Colton did not give Blake a heads up that he had left Caelyn with that feeling?

He took the texts down. I can not believe people would attack her over what he showed. (I did not see them, so I don't know what was there-maybe someone can fill us in?)

Without any knowledge of the texts-i think he said enough in the IG apology and it would have sufficed moving forward. Yes, it was and is going to be rough sailing...he screwed up. I don't think he should have tried to make himself look better and the less said would have helped everything die down. Caelyn was obviously triggered by something that made her so emotional and I think she honestly felt what she was telling him she felt at that time on the beach. He did not acknowledge her - sort of poor.

AND, if he came there for Hannah, why did he not use his date card to ask her out?

@Doggoneit, the texts are over on Reddit and are definitely worth a read. They paint both Caelynn and Blake in a whole new light.

Regarding last night's show -- I liked Nicole and Clay as a couple. I think they meshed well. IMO Annaliese needs to stay in her lane. If it's true that (as Clay said,) the breakup had been three months prior, I don't see a problem with that (even if Clay was the one to initiate it.) And I don't think it's unusual to stay in occasional contact with an ex. I've done it myself. If Angela doesn't want to hear from him again, it's on her to say so.

I liked Demi's commentary, and I think her ITMs were on point.

As for the situation with Blake, wow. There are still a lot of questions, but the texts that he released of his conversations with Caelynn are eye opening. It seems to me that she pursued him quite aggressively and treated him solely as a booty call. They both appeared to see it that way (and it seems to have happened more than once.) As some fans on Reddit have pointed out, if a man pursued a woman sexually the way that Caelynn pursued (a very reluctant) Blake, we would be stringing him up by his toes. Their main concern was keeping it on the downlow, especially with regard to Hannah G. (for whatever reason.) The texts go a long way towards explaining his genuinely shocked and puzzled reaction to her complaints last night. Seen in the context of those texts, his reaction makes sense. Blake is still a player, but for Caelynn to say that he "treats women like scum" based on her personal experience with him is going too far. She was a very knowing and willing participant in his shenanigans, and her heart never appeared to be engaged.

The first of my questions occurred to me even before the texts came to my attention. Why was Caelynn so hyper-focused on Blake's supposed faults? Even if her complaints were 100% valid, then IMO she should have tipped off the other women and moved on. Why waste so much time on holding a grudge over a situation that was over and done with? If you believe him to be scum, well guess what, there are a whole lot of other hot men there for you to choose from. Isn't that the point of Paradise, to try to find your person?

My next question is why was Blake was so unhappy to see her? They both knew they were going to Paradise. This should not have been a surprise to either one. Was it a trick of editing, or perhaps he was tired of her aggressive pursuit? Or he was simply ready to move on?

Also, if Blake's real interest was Hannah G., why did he choose Tayshia for his date? Did he change his mind? And last, did Hannah G. know about Blake's hookups with Kristina and Caelynn by this point in Paradise? If so, would that not have troubled her?

To be continued! I wonder how Caelynn will respond to Blake's vigorous defense. As of right now, I'm going to go with Judge Judy's assessment of certain litigants, "If your mouth is moving, you are lying." IMO Caelynn has lost all credibility. And it does tend to shed new understanding of why she and Hannah B. may have had their falling out, long ago.

As for Blake, hopefully he will learn a lesson from this and it will help to mature him. I don't think there's any real harm in him -- he's just acting like a kid in a candy store.

@Amethyst

If what RS has said is true, there is a whole lot left out of the story we were shown.

Evidently he was flirting/hanging out with Tayshia at Stagecoach along with hooking up with Kristina and Caelynn on subsequent nights.  (RS said Caelynn was first then Kristina but they said it was the other way on the show). He was also talking with Hannah G between Stagecoach and going to paradise. They even arranged for him to visit her for a weekend 2 weeks before filming started for paradise. That would tie in to the date in the text that Caelynn asked about Hannah and why Hannah was happy to see him. It is not known whether there was a hook up with Hannah though. Evidently Blake denied that when that came out during filming (have a feeling we won't see this). So many fans have been shipping the Blake/Hannah G pairing that they could be the stars of the show if they were together.

RS seems to think Tayshia knew nothing about any of this but that Kristina and Caelynn had found out about the other. He also believes that Hannah knew about all of it.

And, since all this came out, RS has been receiving info from others in BN about hook ups they have had with Blake in the past year.  You said with "Kid in a candy store".
