We all watched last season when Jason proposed to Melissa, then broke her heart on national TV. I know, old news.
But how many of us knew ahead of time that was going to happen?
If you read the many Bachelor spoiler websites and blogs, you actually knew weeks beforehand how it was going to play out. I admit, that I couldn't help myself and watched that "famous" You Tube video that told us Melissa was the final one, examining her birthmarks and the color of her arms to great detail. We also found out that blogger 'Reality Steve' had some inside information that Jason was going to choose Melissa, then break up with her to be with Molly. Although I wouldn't help looking at all the spoiler information, it ruined it for me. I wanted to enjoy the love story but I didn't really want to know how it ended.
Did knowing the ending ruin it for anyone else?
This time I don't want the ending spoiled for me.
You also have to feel badly for Melissa after her emails to Jason were leaked to the media. Melissa even confirmed these emails were true.
Jason Mesnick-Melissa Rycroft Emails Revealed!
http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2009/03/jason-mesnick-melissa-rycroft-emails-revealed/As the fallout from the season finale of The Bachelor continues, Access Hollywood claims to have uncovered personal e-mails between Jason Mesnick and Melissa Rycroft, his chosen fiancee who he dumped on national TV four minutes later. In the first of several emails, Melissa Rycroft expressed her anger at Jason following the "After the Rose" special (taped in mid-January), in which Jason dumped her hard and opted for a second chance with runner-up Molly Malaney. While Jason's change of heart shocked viewers who saw it unfold about 16 seconds after their televised engagement, Melissa may have seen it coming.
She wrote in the e-mail dated January 19:
"Last night didn't go NEAR how I thought... I still can't believe how you can't give reasons other than 'It changed.'... You know as well as I do that you didn't give 100% to me or the relationship. I don't understand how you can walk away form something without giving it your all. But I am walking away knowing I did."
In the initial e-mail after the taping, Melissa Rycroft seemed quite clued in to Jason's feelings for Molly Malaney prior to his tearful TV confession: "And getting confirmation about Molly in front of people like that was a complete classless move if you ask me - how could you do that to me after I repeatedly asked you about it? I'm not stupid, I knew about Molly... and you lied to me about it. I can't even tell you how much respect I lost for you... but it makes this whole process from here on out much easier for me." In an interview with People after Monday's finale, Jason Mesnick insisted that he had no choice in how the situation played out, that it was "part of the deal" in his contract - a sentiment echoed in his reply e-mail to Melissa.
Jason wrote the following: "The producers had a lot to do with it. I am so sorry. This is so horrible." Melissa Rycroft wasn't buying that weak sauce excuse, responding: "You are a grown man and perfectly capable of making your own decisions. Own your actions and stop blaming this process."
In a later e-mail, dated January 21, Jason answered Melissa's note, going as far as to say he suffered karmic retribution for calling off the engagement: "You don't deserve any of it at all. I wish there were more that I could say. I want to take all of your pain away and put it on me. If you are talking about Karma, I slipped and fell and had a huge gash in my leg 3 inches wide and to the bone. I deserve so much worse for what I am doing to you." And in the final e-mail between the two, also dated January 21, Melissa reflected on Jason being dumped by DeAnna Pappas on The Bachelorette: "I do think it's a little ironic that you kept telling me, 'Morally, how could I ever get back with DeAnna after what she did to me?' And I agree... just seems like a very similar situation with your new lady... Just a little irony I guess. Seeing the person that you became, you are right: a relationship between you and I would never work out... I'm not mad... I'm not hurt - seeing how things were handled helped me get over things quickly. I do wish you both the best though. Take care."
Please Jillian, be like Trista and just try to find real love.

I didn't like that it ruined it for me too. I read the blogs and knew a head of time what was going to happen. My friends who didn't know were much more shocked then me. How does reality steve know anyways?
I read his blog too and maybe he knows someone from the show. I bet they are looking to fire that person UNLESS they purposely leaked the information to the media. But why would they do that?
I don't think Jillian is like Trista. I'm not sure if there are any guys on the show that she will really end up loving.
I love Jillian - she is just such a cutie and some guy will snatch her up. She will find her perfect mustard man!!!!!
I thougth Jillian liked ketchup men?
Jason needs some help. He picked a 24 yr. old girl (Molly) for a reason. Men like him can't handle a woman who is his age so they have to pick the insecure youngest one (easier to manipulate and get things over on her.) A grown mature woman would tell him where to shove it right away !
