Graham **SPOILERS**

[marlap]

I get the impression Graham is not over his ex

[Google]

 

[_spaceoddity_]

Graham is a strange case indeed. I think he's got major issues. Only being in one admittedly short relationship in his life at 29?? And then going on The Bachelorette straight after? A guy like THAT? Maybe he's got the same problem as me, which is that I aggrandize people until I really meet them and then only focus on their (real or imagined) flaws until I just feel nothing anymore. It's kind of like a sick defense mechanism. Yes, I see a lot of myself in Graham (and vice versa...BADUM-CH)
He also rarely looks at her in the eye; what's with that?
He's damn sexy though. *fans self*

Graham is really sexy but there seems to be just something off about him. Dee does seem still smitten so I do like them together.

I agree with Dee's statement...Graham is definitely 'smokin hot' ....He did seem closed off and very guarded, hopefully that changes over time...There must be reason to why she decides to take him all the way to the hometown dates. He probably will open up as time goes on. His friends have stated that he is a shy guy, so I can see why he was closed off on the first date. They seemed to make progress near the end of the date though.

[probably]

I think some of you are missing what he was saying. His personal life is just that..personal. But, I think what was trying to be conveyed was that he was saying that he has only been in one relationship where it was or could have been serious enough to take the next step. Doesnt mean hes only been in one relationship.

Precisely. That is the edit, at least, that Graham will receive. I'm sure you all noticed the PI of DeAnna (she's in a black dress with a tropical backdrop) where she said that he seemed indecisive. It was spliced with tonight's 1-1 date. I'm sure the PI was filmed after his departure and probably when DeAnna was in the Bahamas.

I thought the date was very honest and real ,like a first date or second date with someone you are very attracted to would be..and that given the fact they HARDLY know one another,they seemed to have a very strong connection..she even mentioned that as far as when she first met him she has a strong connection to him..

I personally loved the date..and love the honesty in the conversation they both showed ..

Yes, he is Smokin ,cupcakes!

We seem to be getting alot more real converstions than on previous shows..I like that..

[shellys]

I think it was very telling that during Dee and Graham's date tonight...Dee was talking about the show and the process, and said something along the lines of... if you're not feeling it...just say so and end the process and make it easier on everyone.

I wonder if this comment was left in there for a reason...given the rumors of his departure for "personal reasons".

Can we say that he DOES not make it? Because if he isn't the one...I will take him!

Southern boys!

I believe that was his former profession, he played in Europe for a team in Germany.

Actually thats how I took his comment. I read it as he has had relationships in the past, but there was only one that was serious enough to move to the next level.
