Bachelor 24 - Peter Weber - Mar 9th & 10th Finale - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #2

@cheriee, If Tuesday night spurs Peter to put some distance between himself & his parents, it'll have been worth the trauma I experienced watching it. Ugh, who thought that was good TV? I think Peter needs some therapy too to help him establish healthy boundaries with his parents, be less of a people pleaser, and to learn relationship skills. I don't think he knows how to nurture a relationship without being OTT romantic. Hopefully he won't follow Peter Sr.'s example if the half-brother's allegations are true.

I agree, Peter would really benefit from seeing a therapist. There's a lot to figure out, and he's so entangled with his family that I don't even think he knows where to begin. The first step is moving out, and he really should already have done so. I feel like we all went through some trauma watching this unfold! I hope at least Peter takes some steps soon, he's never going to find happiness with anyone if he doesn't. All JMO.

It appears Peter Sr. cheated on his wife with Barb. His half brother commented about it on SM.

I have posted about it in one of the threads here. Bottom line is Barb had an affair with Peter Sr while he was married and already had children. Peter Sr has no contact with those children because of Barb.

Peter will never have a good relationship with any woman unless he sets boundaries with his mother. Also, I can't imagine any woman would even think about a relationship with him after that display on Tuesday night.

IMO

YIKES!

Aha, can't help but wonder if the dynamic between Peter and his F2 in any way resembled the dynamic between Senior and his two wives....ie was the first wife the "one who didnt understand him, and who was not as into sex" while the new wife was seemingly the opposite??? [though as we've learned she's really just a b@llbuster....] j/k, well, sorta

How weird of the half brother to post about that. That alone speaks volumes imo

Yes, but Peter wasn't satisfied enough with HS (unless Pete's mom is ok with him cheating). HS seems nothing like his mom. Actually, Madi seems more like his mom (but for the crying) than HS to me as she is very strong willed. He's never had a serious relationship. Peter and HS didn't meet for an entire month? I don't get that and they all claim he can't go without sex for long.

I am just not getting the edit of the whole season. The entire time, it was more focused on Madi (who still didn't get as much time as the drama stuff) until the last episode where people are scratching their heads why he is in love with two women.

If we have to believe RS he cheated with Julia, a producer, and Kelley!

Those are rumors and denied by Kelley. Why would she if she is close with HS? Makes no sense.
