Then relationships will work and future family living will seek also a church to help couples stay together.

If so, I wonder why that wasn't aired. I'm glad that Jillian's mom asked about having kids...but I wish she'd also had asked "when" would you like to have kids...because many guys "say" they want kids, but when asked "when," they perpetually keep putting it off until "later" adding more and more excuses (we need to have more money saved, we need to have more fun first, I'm not ready for the obligations, etc)....and the woman waits and waits and then has fertility issues.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428342743289421532.post-77697500883117679482009-07-30T08:18:13.381-07:002009-07-30T08:18:13.381-07:00<<<< Anonymous said...

Or someone who is Catholic and someone who isn't. Those are "big deals" to couples - even if they aren't "religious" once they marry and have children (family pressures, church attendance, raising the kids, etc).

She talks so fast and does not seem warm and feminine. Mostly silly and not serious about each one she is with. She likes to kiss and snuggle, which seems like teen agers and never talk about their lives together in a real way. She was just curious about Wes as a star, not to be her husband.

I really think Jake is a good guy but I was glad when he left the show. I found him to be a little corny and not at all free spirited like Jillian. I think people are a little hard on Jillian over the whole Wes thing. I can't stand the guy but that's because we got to hear and see him when Jillian wasn't around. She got to see the Wes who was charming and plus she grew up in Alberta so she loves the country in him..she is a polished hick right? I think Jillian will let Wes go this week and put us all out of our misery. I'm sure we will all be happy with the end result of the show. <br /><br />I really enjoyed your blog and can't wait to read the next one.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01493883739906002862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428342743289421532.post-25172375350422569362009-07-03T19:36:50.551-07:002009-07-03T19:36:50.551-07:00Thoroughly entertaining blog, Chris. The Bachelor...Thoroughly entertaining blog, Chris. The Bachelor/rette contacts are circling around your engaging personality. I saw the teaser preview clip where you are comforting Jillian in what looks like the final episode. The relationship you have with her & other Bachelor/ettes is almost God-like/big brother; I absolutely love Jillian but I have become an even bigger fan of you as host. You make the show more real.<br /><br />I was struck with Jillian's commentary after Kiptyn's hometown date saying that she didn't mind the questions from his mother. I don't know if this was totally straight up. Though Jillian was quite accepting of the mom-in-law undercurrent -- hats off to her -- she seemed uneasy. I would have been asking for a change of underwear. Also there was nothing made of a sort of confessional with Kip where I was sure he must have asked. And nothing was very warm about their hot-tub time together. Her concluding comments in the segment of saying that she fit in to all of the final 5 guys' families left me doubtful. A wine test on the cabana of a California beach-front property would make a small-town girl pause & take a deep snarf of the spirits in the glass. She handled this situation with poise, but yes, I think she had to wonder if she fit into Kiptyn's family picture. I also don't see the connection between she and Kiptyn progressing though there is a lot of physical chemistry between them. For me, he's mysterious, almost untouchable. I don't get a sense of who he really is. Is this on the editing room floor?<br /><br />Reid 'not having anything on Christmas mornings' : Jillian & he haven't had the religious faith conversation or is it taboo and also left out? Along with an admitted history by his brothers of non-commitment, I say they don't have an ultimate hook-up. He is however very telegenic and personable.<br /><br />My vote is Ed. We had plenty of footage of Jillian's heartbreak when he left. The stage is set for his real comeback. Adorable with a shy, sweet confidence, I need to see what his attraction to Jillian is really all about. I admire him for his perceptiveness. We hear him most in outtake comments of other suitors' personalities and predictions on who Jillian will prefer. I hope he catches a wave in Spain, sweeps her off her feet. Goodbye to Wes and his career with women fans. Yup. shoulda checked in with your publicity department. But then this is reality TV. You got me.

The only reason he was chosen is because he was safe - no sexual chemistry happening there. I don't blame Jillian for finding no attraction. He was very immature and seemed younger than 25.<br /><br />Wes is a dirt ball and would not have chosen him past the first rose ceremony.<br /><br />Love that Ed is back! He is marriage material!! <br /><br />Kipton is hot but not into Jillian or getting married. I agree with you Chris when you say red flags that she does not think she is good enough. On different levels and need to be on the same level.<br /><br />Does Reid want to marry a Jewish girl? Wondering why they have not discussed religions and raising children?

(so my vote is for Jake to be the next Bachelor) what realy gets me mad is that Wes is still there what is Jillian thinking?? first he isn't attractive at all, he seems like a snake in the grass, slimeball, yuck is all I have to say, and for Jillian to believe him over Jake... I don't get it! I really want Jillian to find happiness and her true love. I said that if Wes was picked and Jake wasn't that was it I was finished watching, but if truth be told I have to find out who she picks in the end.

First I don't believe the show would do that, but for sure I don't believe that Jake is the type of guy that would let money speak for him if something wasn't the truth, he seems to be genuine with alot of character to him. There are so many untrue things being said which is very unfortunate. Jake stepped up to the plate and look what Mr. nice guy gets for it all. I wish there was a way after these shows of matching girls up with the men that aren't picked. They should come up with an after show like that.<br />Wish I knew how someone could get invited to the men tell all show. Tom Bergeron lives behind my gates, maybe he knows you and I can get my daughter to the men tell all showing. So many people come up to my daughter saying she should be on the show, but she doesn't want to make it about her looks thats why she refuses to model.<br />I didn't think the drama and rumors could surpass last season with Jason, but it seems this season has a lot of negative things being said, what a shame.

I'll just put it r...I am in love with Michael. I'll just put it right out there. Please please please make him the next bachelor. Yeah, I know, Jake is a super sweet guy and totally deserves to find the right girl. But here's the thing--there are some people in life that I think could really end up with any number of people, and be perfectly happy and content and find true love with any of them. Jake is one of them. Michael, I think, is someone that has ONE true love. ONE person that will fit perfectly with who he is and what he wants out of life. And seeing him go on that journey as Bachelor would be amazing, not to mention that he himself is a much more...captivating person than Jake (I think.) Jake is such a "catch" that some girl is going to make him very happy, but I think Michael needs something more.<br /><br />Also, I don't really understand what Jillian's problem was with Michael's age? Of all the guys, he was a guaranteed "Marriage" ticket, and would probably give her the "kids in 5 years plan" more than anyone else. I mean, she had to ask Wes "After all of this, would you consider at least dating me?" Wow, what is she in this for?<br /><br />Anyway, back to the show...<br />From day one, I've never understood what Jillian sees in Wes. I don't really get how that stupid song melts her heart. And he's so unaffectionate with her, and practically demanded that he "didn't want to ever say ever again that he's here for the right reasons"! I don't see why she isn't totally turned off? I just don't get it. <br /><br />I was a total Jillian fan and was so sad when she left the bachelor. But now...well...I think she's a super sweet and charming girl but I just don't have very much respect for someone who gets swept away by such silly, insubstantial things as a ridiculous song. There's no way that she'll pick him in the end, I'm sure--because her interview in OKAY! said she was doing really well and was really happy and had found true love and from the things that Wes has said about her there's no way she could still feel that way.<br /><br />I was really happy to see Ed come back, and I had sort of rooted for him from the start. Reid is a bit neurotic, and I can see Jillian getting sick of that after a while--but maybe they balance out well. Anyway, I like them both and hope that they are the final two.<br /><br />I hate myself for being so addicted to this show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428342743289421532.post-57549501544935345172009-06-30T13:59:44.786-07:002009-06-30T13:59:44.786-07:00Guess what?

Really, how can the production managers even allow a guy like Wes to say he does not care about getting the girl and only about getting his CD sold? Really, this whole show has become a sham. And allowing Ed back on after two weeks? This is not fair, and Michael's face showed it. Right now Michael seems like the only genuine person on the show. And now he's gone! His feedback after being let go was truly heartfelt, and too bad, Jillian did not see it. I think she may have had second thoughts if she knew he had indeed fallen in love with her. I have even lost respect for poor Jillian. She presented herself much better on The Bachelor. She's barely articulate now. She seems to only be basing her choices on sexual energy or something, and Wes lost all of his appeal after the first few weeks. The whole thing seems staged to me now. With Wes always showing up with guitar in hand after Jillian let each of those younger guys go. And now Ed coming back. Ed's little spiel seemed forced and rehearsed. Come on, why would the producers even allow such a thing?!? I told myself if Jillian picks Wes again, I am out of here. But I may still read your blog, Chris. Tell the producers to quit playing us for fools. I was so enjoying this show until the last few episodes. Now the whole show makes me sick to my stomach. Quit the forced plot twists, and bring back old-fashioned romance!Robin in Sunny Californianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428342743289421532.post-19957201793901504952009-06-30T07:44:27.816-07:002009-06-30T07:44:27.816-07:00They say nice guys finish last, then whats to be s...They say nice guys finish last, then whats to be said about nice guys caring enough to put themself through what Jake did and try and talk some sense into Jillian and then have it backfire on him? So Chris, you say you have mixed emotions on Jake showing up and telling her, curious what your feelings are on it. Mine are it shows that Jakes a real caring person and when someone does wrong he's willing to put himself out there and step up to the plate, which none of the other guys such as Tanner were willing to do. It seemed Jake cared more about Jillian and he said he couldn't live with himself if she picked Wes and noone had the guts to warn her ahead of time. I was so angry that he weaseled his way back into Jillian's heart, shows what a con artist he is. The thing that angered me most is how Jake was played out as a guy that lost the girl and now wants to make trouble. I can only imagine what Jillian feels seeing it now. It's unfair to judge Jillian based on what we've seen so far, as she would have let Wes go long ago had she been able to hear and see what we did. As a mother of a girl Jillian's age, I only wish a man like Jake would come through my door, he has character and is a real gem. Wes is one bad boy that will finish last, not only do I believe he won't get Jillian, but I think the publicity he wanted will not turn out to be positive for him from this show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2428342743289421532.post-79704368666752837712009-06-30T07:13:59.312-07:002009-06-30T07:13:59.312-07:00Why is she so blinded by Wes???
