But I think what happend after that was even worse... she was almost choking trying to hold back her tears when she said that if you really loved somebody, you DON'T WANT TO KNOW why you were rejected and than Andy starts with his "Ok, how about you just ask me why you didn't get the final rose... well, my answer is...". He's really a jerk... and as if that isn't cruel enough, his "reason" is even more cruel... He basically said that all he needed was Tessa saying that she loves him... sounds like he didn't care at all that Bevin told him the same, and that she really put her heart out there!!! I'm so impressed how Bevin handled it... I would have slapped him, or actually, when he started with his reasoning, I would have said "I just said I DON'T want to know, so SHUT UP!"
Ok, I'm done...
Bravo, couldn't have stated it better. Granted he is happy with his choice but he was a jerk to Bevin and she was a class act sitting there with him. And TPTB through her to the wolves in the ATFR show. BAD

Well, if he didn't want to hurt Bevin even further, he could have just said "The reason for chosing Tessa was that I had stronger feelings for her." But coming up with the love declaration he wanted to hear from Tessa is really mean imo since Bevin declared her love as well... I agree that maybe Andy had to say something, but he could have worded it better and less hurtful for Bevin. I know that most people crave for watching other people being hurt, but Bevin's been hurt enough already, so forcing her to listen to a reason for being rejected when she was already crying (almost) was simply unnecessary...

I so agree with you Estella. I think that was so uncalled for. But if Andy truelly wanted to help her out he should have said. Look, she clearly does not want to hear my answer. Bevin if you would like to hear later in private I will be more than willing to tell you after the show. IMO Andy just wanted to save face with Tessa and make him self look better. When in fact it made him look worse to me.

Here is Andy's song to Bevin.

HINDER LYRICS

"Better Than Me"

I think you can do much better than me
After all the lies that I made you believe

Guilt kicks in and I start to see
The edge of the bed
Where your nightgown used to be
I told myself I won't miss you
But I remember
What it feels like beside you
I really miss your hair in my face
And the way your innocence tastes
And I think you should know this
You deserve much better than me

While looking through your old box of notes
I found those pictures I took
That you were looking for
If there's one memory I don't want to lose
That time at the mall
You and me in the dressing room
I told myself I won't miss you
But I remember
What it feels like beside you
I really miss your hair in my face
And the way your innocence tastes
And I think you should know this
You deserve much better than me

The bed I'm lying in is getting colder
Wish I never would've said it's over
And I can't pretend... I won't think about you when I'm older
Cause we never really had our closure
This can't be the end
I really miss your hair in my face
And the way your innocence tastes
And I think you should know this
You deserve much better than me

I really miss your hair in my face
And the way your innocence tastes
And I think you should know this
You deserve much better than me
(And I think you should know this)
(You deserve much better than me
)

he didnt need to word it the way he did... like as if he was just keeping Bevin warm on the back burner until Tessa decided if she wanted him or not

no class

Exactly. I think I would have hit him with my cast if I was her. Andy you may be an officer but you are no gentleman.

Sue, I couldn't agree more. I could not believe his "excuse". He should have just said his feelings were deeper for Tessa. Period.

He came off looking like a jerkwad by saying he was basically waiting until she declared her love. Defo salt in the wound and more to save his face with Tessa.

I was very angry with the whole treatment of Bevin, so it's cool to see others who were as upset as I was.


Finally got back in here. I couldn't remember my darn password. lol I haven't posted since the Travis/Sarah season.

I feel your pain, not only with the forgotten pass word but the treatment of Bevin

Very well stated sue1961! If Andy wanted any redemption after dragging Bevin through the mud the last four episodes, he could have at least "reached deep down in his soul" and spared trying to make a fool of her once again on national television. He is such a disappointment, and I hope whoever TB11 is and Fleiss will be a tad more sparing of the next F2...but, I definitely know better than to hold my breath for that.

I am vowing not to get emotionally invested in TB11. I doubt it will happen, but that is certainly how I am going to go into it!

I know what you mean but I'm sure we will get drawn into the flame just like moths.
