He sure seemed to fancy Amanda last night.

This quote will be scrutinized as we wait for the finale to air! To me it is just as telling as Brad saying he was happy with the outcome. Both statements are definitive in different ways.

He probably was attracted to several in the first greeting but the first rose tipped his hand. I do think we have a spoiler with this one.

It is ineresting that she has lived in England for four years when she was a child because they have a little in common.

How fitting that Amanda is from Niceville.

She is not only gorgeous, but she radiates beauty from within. She was my fave as soon as she stepped out of the limo and greeted Matt.

And, when I first wrote about it, I forgot that he pulled Amanda from a group and took her to a private room. *sigh* I'm not going to blame fleeting or re-constructed memory for my squeezing of time lapses...I'm not, I'm not. But, that is why I'm glad I tape this sucker!

I caught that too, Ariel ~ it was with Robin that he walked away from to give the rose to Amanda.

I agree. I also think that this can be applied to both Amanda and Shayne. Didn't he at one point say that he felt an instant attraction to her. I need to go back and rewatch...

Yes, he did mention that he was attracted to Shayne, before he even got to the FIR.

Has anyone noticed how much Amanda favors Jenni from last season and her Sister favors DeAnna. Humm

Go Niceville!!

Welcome Karen -I can only remember one Karen from HS and that would mean you have a whole bunch of brothers and a sister that graduated with us as well! If this is true, good to hear from you!
