I haven't seen the show and caught news of this on the front page of Yahoo. What gets me is that anyone cares or has sympathy for anyone involved. How many of us are "hot" like they are, they are crying today, but guess what, tomorrow they are still living a great life.
and the one girl's quote:
"This is one of the worst feelings in the world… telling someone how you feel about them and they kind of just reject your feelings," Jenni Croft, a 27-year-old Phoenix Suns cheerleader hailing from Wichita, Ks., said. "[That's] the reason why it's so hard for me to tell people how I feel."
omg, are you kidding me
boohoo, cry me a river, she is an NBA team cheerleader and probably has had a zillion guys after her since she was in high school
I know there has to be a line of guys who laid it on the line and told her that they liked her.... and she stepped on them like a bug
in closing - boohoo poor hot guy and hot girl

Well to say the least, the finale was a grave disappointment to the girls and the audience as well. My opinion is that Brad is a psycopathic liar...he believes he is doing the right thing and being honest, but in reality, he's lying - and he doesn't even know he's doing it! That's what makes it psychopathic. Too bad for all involved...but thank God he didn't marry either of them. It's tough, if not impossible, to be married to a psychopathic liar. They seem sooo sincere - and think of themselves as sincere -- while they are actually lying, lying, and lying... Perhaps ABC should give potential Bachelors a psychological test before chosing them to be on the show.
Sincerely, N.S.,J.D.

I have one word for for the producers of the Bachelor...BOYCOTT!! I will not watch another one of your episodes...you played the television audience and thought it was funny by putting the BIGGEST LIAR EVER on the show! SHAME ON YOU ABC...SHAME ON YOU!! FOOL ME ONCE - YOU WON'T DO IT AGAIN!! BOYCOTT!! BOYCOTT!! and I'll tell ten friends who will then tell ten friends and so forth and so forth!! You gambled and lost ABC!!

U know I heard a rumor that he is a serial rapist in his hometown, weather that is true or not , would be something to consider why ABC pulled the plug on him and the 2 final canidates.
If this is true, i wonder why ABC hasnt discovered that earlier when they chose Brad to be the next bachelor???

REALITY CHECK - if you participate in this type of show expect reality. The women on this show act like 15 year old catty girls.....meow! They make total FOOLS of themselves....."I love him so much", give me a break!!!! They love the idea he's rich and wouldn't life be great! As for Brad - omigawd he's "chuggin monkey ugly"!!! His voice is so annoying. And, P.S. Brad, even those pecs and 6-pack can't make up for that face. Brad, your personality is one of a dead fish. Ladies, you were both LUCKY!! Get on with life and Celebrate - you dodge a bullet.

I feel bad for the gals, but you know what...it isn't true reality, its a TV show. If he knew he couldn't see either of them as his wife, then, so be it. Better to be honest than to bring someone into something that is destined to fail. I may have done the same thing if I wasn't 100% sure.

I feel robbed.
to not choose anyone! From the beginning this guy said he was there to find a wife. He led these girls on until the last minute. He mentioned on several different occasions how he could see either one of them as his wife and growing old with them. I think he was just in it for the tv exposure. He didn't have to propose. Most of the bachelors choose a girl and date to see if there is anything to evolve away from the cameras. He made those girls feel like fools. What an ass.
Karlotta Snyder Says:
November 20th, 2007 9:32 PM
Brad....what an disappointment. All I can say is what an ass I am for watching all of the episodes and losing precious sleep. Of all the bachelors, I kept watching him because he seemed so "real". Yet it did not escape my attention that he pressed each of the girls to reveal their true emotions about him...actually made it a point to tell them that what they felt for him was of the utmost importance in the making of his decision... yet he never uttered a word even coming close to "love". this is every woman's nightmare....so I say thanks for the experience vicariously.... I felt my own heart break for those two women. If I were his mother, I would support him publicly but privately shed tears over my boy's immaturity. I won't be watching this show ever again just because I believe in the power of one...one more person that won't stand for the violence we do unto each other in the name of love. Bring on a reality show portraying a real marriage or real committed relationship showing how the hard work is done that brings truth and beauty between two people. How we all could benefit from that...until then, count me out.

it was a disappointing finale...i agree. but then, come to think of it, brad has a point. i mean, i would'nt want to be engaged (or even worst, married) to a man who can't possibly stand up for me. dat wud be more unfair. bsyds, reality or not, it's a TV show. can't never tell if it was all scripted or not.

I think ABC needs to call it quits on the Bachelor series. It is getting old...enough already. People get their 15 minutes of TV fame and then move on. Most couples brake it off shortly after the final show. Everyone involved knows what they are getting into when they sign on. I would not want to be with someone who could not honestly say they loved me. So, what if Brad has a pregnant ex-girlfriend. If he chooses to go back with her then so be it!

I think they should have a psychologist on the show to teach them about how you go about recognising the right kind of person for you. They lost my interest when they were given the optiion to spend the night together. How can you sleep with 3 women in teh same time period and expect to make a wise choice. I believe sexual envolement clouds your judgment.

Absolutely ridiculous. I was so angered by the finale last night. definitely a waste of time. I was loving this season of the show until now. The most annoying part was that there was no explanation as to why! All the sudden his intentions changed. You can see why ABC aired the show. What a different ending that they had no control of. But what a disgrace to the purpose of this show. He sure fooled america...but not anymore. His true colors showed. I feel terrible for those women to have to deal with what he did to them. There are way better men out there. Go get em girls.

Everyone has a point; maybe I'm the last, living, POLLYANNA??? Didn't anyone see how HARD that was for BRAD, TOO? The poor man, honestly looked like he was going to have a full blown panic attack! I don't think, I really don't, that he would "stage" that. ONLY HE knows what happened and what's in his heart. I gotta tell you, as shocked and sad as I was last night, also, it was THE best Bachelor ever. Brad is courteous, he is chivalrous, ALWAYS gentle in the way he approached each woman. . he didn't GLOM all over them, EVERYTHING was please and thank you from that man . HIS MAMA DONE RAISED SOME AMAZIN' BOYS!
EVERYONE (INCLUDING THE WOMEN) deserves happiness, togetherness, that feeling the moment that you are with that "one", the one you love; and all you can think is.................... "I'm home!
They are ALL beautiful people, inside and out, and I, wish them all . . all 3 . the best life has to offer!
Brad, if you read this, and come to CT, meet ME :)
then the whole WORLD would understand why you didn't pick them.

How ridiculous to believe a person could do anything but act on tv. There are no surprises left in Hollywood. Only drama. Would anyone you know want to be on camera with amateur acting skills be able to concentrate on findiing a lasting partner while ,play "the "you're honestly not for me because the one moment in time we had together was not perfect,so therefore I cannot marry you"! I might sound synical but I think it rings through. If the guy would date them all again for 3 months and I would imagine the results could be the same. TV is not always believable,so we all have to get over it and enjoy what is real in our lives!!!!!

Elizabeth Says:
November 20th, 2007 11:19 PM
I think everyone needs to just lay off of Brad. He had enough respect for these girls to not pretend to feel something he didn't just because he was on television. He followed his heart and that is never wrong.
