The Bachelorette, my new best friend

Put anyone in a room with 25 men and of course you will pick one you like the most. Add to the mix romantic settings at every turn and you've got all the ingredients to fall in love. In the real world if a woman was making out with this many men she'd be a back stabbing whore (just saying). However in this situation she is so sweet and you feel for her plight. Poor thing has so many men to choose from, how will she decide.
All that being said I get hooked every season and I like the people around me to watch as well. This is the only drama I really have in my life and I want others to discuss this poor woman's life with me. For some reason I think this bachelorette is my new best friend, I want her dates to be great and I want to give her advice. Like "hey that guy is lame, let him go, he told you to basically shut up". What? You kept him another week didn't you hear me, its time for him to go home. I want her to find her prince charming. It all leads up to that special episode when 2 lucky guys get to ask her to marry them. This truly is riveting TV, and reality of course because everyone falls in love in 4 weeks, right?? And the boys can't be jealous that she is falling in love with more than one person. Do you think this show would ever lead to brother husbands? Why not, TLC has sister wives. Anyway, at the end of this emotional roller coaster after the proposal the couple doesn't see each other for 3 months. So for 3 months the lucky winner gets to watch his beautiful, loving fiance make out with other men. And we wonder why none of these relationships last. But who wants to see or think about after the happily every after. What do you mean it didn't work out, they fell madly in love after 6 weeks!!
After the rose ceremony always has a room full of women who feel just like me, I can see in their faces as they watch that moment the guy proposes. As women we've come so far but we still want to see prince charming win the princess. But truly all this really is, is a fairy tale.
Well when the next Bachelorette airs on TV, I will be there for her, giving advice and hoping that at the end of the season that special guy proposes. After that, I move on with my life and anxiously wait the next season....

  1. Within those three months apart, the smell of fresh roses fade and people's eyes open. I've found the secret of The Bachelor (+ ette)! Those roses put everyone under a magical spell.

    That's it, next time I get roses from a certain guy, I'm smacking them to the ground and yelling "NOT THIS TIME, BUDDY. I'M TOO SMART FOR YOUR DIRTY TRICKS."

    Love your blog:)
