Meeanna has an enormous ego and she will bitch out anyone who crosses her. How's that for a stable marriage?

Men like Jason and Jeremy are the salt of the earth and boys like Jesse distance themselves when the going gets tough. I suspect that Jesse won't be around long and, you know, I hope he gets out of it sooner rather than later with all his body parts intact.

Re: Meeanna hitting Hollywood -- go to the back of the line.

Do you have some sort of insider info that tells you what her plans are and that she in fact has plans of trying to make in the business? You speak with such certainty so I'm dying to know what you know.

The reason Jason was played up was because of his cute kid, without him he just would have been one of the bunch.

Connorsmom, that's about how I feel too - he probably shouldn't do it, but if he does, I will definitely watch and hope it doesn't ruin my image of him!

The guys are fine. I've said this all along and through the Brad show, it's her I have trouble liking. (not personally. i don't know her, but on tv, I don't like her edit.)

Can not warm to her. Could warm to most all the guys and forgive flaws. I don't know why I can see past some things with her.

I need to find my glowgirl password. Look like a newbie posting as sopearl.

I agree, and I have thought all along that losing her mom at a young age and being raised by her dad has made her less comfortable with 'warm and fuzzy.' She's definitely a tomboy, adrenaline-junkie! That part fits with Jesse - I just still saw them as buddies more than red-hot romantic interests.

I agree wih you "cantstop" I refuse to watch the show tomorrow night 'cause I didn't like the edit and the way it led us to Jason as F1. My best friend is a Jason fan too but does not read this board. I do not have the heart to tell her it will not be Jason and I can't imagine what she is going to think. It will probably be the end to her watching the show since she gave up on it after Brad and I told her to watch this season...She will be shocked!!

When a wife picks up and leaves without much warning, it does mess with their heads a little bit, which is understandable and natural. How could it not? Some guys who have been married and divorced become a lot more intuitive than the normal everyday man. I married a divorced man and he notices things that most men wouldn’t. "Oh you have on a new eyeshadow", "You dried your hair differently", "Even though you have poison ivy covering 75% of your face, I still think you are beautiful", "You cut your hair ¼ of an inch"…stuff that would normally go over the head of many men, they notice. And this would make him seem more attentive. It doesn’t make them needy or manipulative as some others have said, it just means that because of their past experience with marriage that they pay attention a little more to the little things.

I haven't read anywhere where this possibility has been discussed, but I haven't read the last 30 pages of this thread - I have GOT to clean house and just can't let myself sit in front of the computer to read 30 more pages, like I've done for the past 3 days!

So..I apologize if this question has already been discussed.

In regards to both men getting down on one knee and proposing, has anyone considered that perhaps DeAnna, through her fear of being rejected again, requested (or more like demanded) that both men offer HER a proposal and give her the chance to turn one down - so she's sure about the level of their feelings towards her before she puts her "heart on the line" one last time?

It's almost like she wants a *spoiler* (i.e., let them tell me first) before she makes her final choice!

I remember someone posting about how she would probably enjoy two proposals as it would tell the world (Brad) "Hey - look at me - TWO MEN wanted to propose to me!! I must be really terrific and special."

She told Graham that she couldn't take the chance that at the end, he would not choose her back, which makes it evident that she still fears and has unresolved issues with that FRC with Brad.

Any thoughts?

Actually, I posted yesterday that I thought he was hot with or without Ty. To each his own - I'm glad we don't all like the same type so everyone has a chance.

Define DeAnna = Fickle????? ... i think this is a old fashion term.. that means something like "erratic changeableness in affections or attachments" ... this actually seems to define the season IMO
