How do I get past this?
I thought we had something special, but it’s not special

How DOES she get past his admitting that he was intimate with both of them?  Will be interesting to find out

IA it will be interesting to find out.  I think that is why tptb are happy to edit Rachel as an obvious f1, cause it will all come down to will she/won't she turn up to the frc.   If tptb are very pleased with the ending (as someone said, can't remember who), I'm guessing that she does.  Can't see them being happy if their lead is rejected by all f3, or he just settles for the last one standing a la Pete.  JMO

it was nick who said on his podcast that production is thrilled with the end of the season. that's another reason i think they're engaged, because production would not be happy if he didn't propose, especially since matt and rachael didn't get engaged last season either

@Agent99 well put. There has to be a reason why TPTB have allowed Rachel to be so obviously Clayton’s F1. Need to have that hook when he gets down to the FRC. Will sh or won’t she say yes as the clear front runner after what he put her through?

Oh between Nick and Peter (Ding and Dong LOL) .. They have all the (wrong) answers 🤮🤮

I think tptb would be thrilled if there was no engagement as long as he was rejected at the end by everyone! I would be too. It truly would be the most dramatic season ever and everyone would be talking about it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you are right, but they really should start to worry about their brand a little.

When was the last time there was a Bachelor ATFR that was even a little romantic? It must have been Colton’s (oh the irony!), and before that Nick’s.

@blueblues Sean's!!

ben and lauren? that's the last time it felt like the show really believed in a bachelor couple imo

Hmmmm, was the “I Love You” from Clayton and the “I Love You Too” filmed after the show? SHV?  Whose voice was it???

I don’t see a switcheroo happening, do y’all? That’s been done many times before.

I think he proposed or chose Rachel at the FRC and she turned him down because she couldn’t deal with the intimate/in love with 3 women situation and will make a decision on the ATFR show. JMO Her after-show posts point to her saying yes to at least dating Clayton. JMO

i'm happy to be wrong but i'm going to stick with my guess that clayton proposes to rachel, they're still engaged and happy and fleiss is just trolling as per usual. that or rachel is pretending to be happy and in love because they've promised her the bachelorette role in return

At this point, the only thing I’m confident about is that the ending has to do with Rachel. They wouldn’t be showing her crying session over and over again if it isn’t a big part of the ending and one of the others is the F1.  JMO

IF it’s actually Gabby as his chosen/Final1 then yikes! They haven’t shown their relationship develop at all (even though we know it has!) I’ll believe it more if it were Susie before Gabby, but I don’t think it is. Could be wrong!
