Bettina ***SPOILERS***

[JoLena]

Okay,
I have been a DeAnna fan from Day 1, I still think she is a good match for Brad. I always thought Bettina was beautiful , she has that Angelic face , a dynomite Body and does remind me of a young Olivia Newton John ( who I loved, especiallly in GREASE)., But last night I took the time to watch all his interactions with only Bettina, from Day1 , I watched the Gondola date with and without voice. I watched him hand her the rose at the inprov, I watched Brad's expressions , and noticed how nervouse he is around her ( I know this happens when men are very attracted to a woman, Andy was the same way with Tessa, and I've seen it with my son as well).
My honest observation is: I did see a major attraction with these two that I was overlooking before( his attraction to Bettina is different then, his attraction and interactions with Jenni and DeAnna ) . I asked my son to watch the last two episodes with me and give me his opinion on who he thinks Brad is more interested in. My hubby thinks it's DeAnna, but I'm curious to hear my sons opinion. I'll come back and post it . right now , by no means would I count Bettina out . I know the previews for next week are not in her favor ,and Brad looks very Angry, but something is telling me Fleiss is waving his magic wand again, and it's not as bad ,as the previews make it look. I can't believe how confusing this season is for me.

Okay, I just caught my nine year old watching the Bachelor on my DVR in my room. My DH was reading (or so he says) while she was watching. I think kids are wonderful judges of character and it is interesting to hear their perspective on people. Although not a body language expert she has said that B&B have more "in the moment" times than anyone else. So I rewatched and had her point them out to me and what she meant. (I know totally crazy asking a nine year old to analyize the Bachelor, okay I need help, is there a doctor aboard this yacht?). Anyway, her observation of the "in the moments" came whenever Brad holds Bettina's hands, whether giving her the rose at epi 3 and she walks away he doesn't immediately let go of her hands or in the improv when she accepts the rose and he holds her hands as long as he can while she walks away or epi 1 when he hugs her after their 1-on-1 his hands drop to hold her hands. They touch hands alot. And to my DD, they are having "in the moments"

Definition of "in the moment" according to my DD - when you are walking down the hallway at school and the guy you love walks towards you and as you pass time slows down and you look at each other deeply in the eyes then you pass each other and your "in the moment" is gone. LOL

What a precious story. So happy your daughter can see inthe moments between Brad and Bettina. All of us on the yacht can also see those moments and enjoy what we are seeing. Cruising the sea of LOVE!

Brad's chosen one:

1. Doesn't want the limelight ... Bettina & maybe DeAnna

2. He's expressed that it's hard for him to watch her as it airs (with the way she's been portrayed?) ... Bettina

3. He's going to have a lot of explaining to do ... to Bettina

4. She knows how to calm him down ... when does he need calming down? The only thing we've seen so far is he's obviously upset at the RC about Hilary; and he appears upset at Bettina's HT date ... we shall see if she calms him down at HT.

5. CH said there is 1 woman who is here for the right reasons ... Bettina has expressed several times in PI's and directly to other girls that shouldn't they want the right thing for Brad, instead of hoping that their "competition" is sent home.

They do seem so awkward when with each other ... is Fleiss's editing only showing the pauses between them, and those pauses are actually because they are comfortable enough with each other they don't have to keep talking all the time. If so, that is why they appear awkward with each other at times, the edit is so choppy.

And why only 4 minutes of their 1-1 date?
