The Bachelor Tribute: Melissa Rycroft
From the moment The Bachelor star Jason Mesnick first laid eyes on Melissa Rycroft, he was smitten with the gorgeous former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader.
The more we got to know this eligible bachelorette - seeing her open up and show her emotional, vulnerable side - the more she endeared herself to fans.
It's no surprise Jason is flat-out giddy whenever she's around...
She's made it to the final two on this epic season of the reality show, and by every indication, Melissa Rycroft has a good chance of winning the final rose.
Whether she ends up with Jason after that is another story.
The Bachelor spoilers predicting a shocking ending will either be very right or very wrong. But the dust will settle Monday, and we'll be there watching.
In honor of the season finale, here's a (gorgeous) photo tribute to Melissa.

Hi Melissa,
Sorry you got screwed by that panzy of a bachelor.
I think you are a sweet person and you wont have any problem finding a future husband but if you do you can give me a shout. You need a man and not a boy and as you know being from Texas,in the south a man is only as good as his word.
Take care and keep your head up.

Melissa - My heart broke last night when After the Final Rose aired. I can't begin to imagine how you were feeling. All I can say is from one 44 year old divorcee' that you handled yourself with class and dignity the entire time I watched the show. You were without a doubt true to yourself and you won our hearts all over the country. We all wanted Jason to pick you. You seem to be someone capable of being able to open your heart and let someone in to love you which is uneasy to do considering the trouble in love you've mentioned in the past. I don't know if your family had any influence in Jason's decision but if it did, it is his loss. What stood out for me about you is your honesty and how real you seem. You have been a professional cheerleader and that could alter anyone's character. But you were real. I feel as though you would be a wonderful wife, friend and mother and I am truly sorry that Jason was not the person we all thought that he was. Two things stick out with me about Jas

Well, what can I say that hasn't already been said? I guess all that I'd really like to add goes out to Jason. Plain and simple man, this may be your "real life" and that you "had to do it," but it is about RESPECT! Forget the fact that you were in love with another women and your "chemistry" faded with Melissa, news flash friend, that's real life and real marriage. Melissa is right, you are a quitter.....and the only way you and Molly have a chance is if you try a lot harder than you did with Mel. Your chemistry will fade for Molly at some point in time, and no, I won't ask you to marry someone you didn't love, but plain and simple and my main point is RESPECT. I think the biggest slap in the face is that you didn't even need time to mourn your relationship woes, nope not Jason Mesnick, you just dust yourself off and jump right back in the sack oops I mean saddle. You didn't even treat Melissa like a friend, because I know friends don't just disrespect one another the way you did Mel.

Wow! Wow! Wow!
Honestly I didn't start watching the show until the last 4 weeks probably. I wanted Melissa to win, I thought she was the best choice, I know if my brother brought someone home like her and didn't keep her I will beat him! So watching the final rose and him picking Melissa, asking her to marry him, bringing Ty and them looking like they were going to be a happy family then dumping her on national T.V. ..... Wow! I thought so much of Jason being a single mother of two boys and all I thought someone is going to be lucky well I have never been so wrong in my life... And Melissa said it best "He's a bastard!" Melissa..... deserves 110% better then the Husband and Man he would of ever been.... Her prince charming will come along, sweep her off her feet and then Jason will be slaped in the face with what a Great Person he lost!! All the Best to Melissa! To Jason, I hope you get what you deserve! To Molly, you aren't a very classy woman....yet, to all you seemed pretty easy!

I was a fan of Jason when that happened with deanna but no more. I love Melissa watched her on Dallas cowboys cheerleaders. I loved her then and was so excited when I found out she was on the bachelor. She is a way better person than Jason and Molly. I am still shocked from it all.you definitely deserve better Melissa.go find it cuz it is out there.
