A Bachelor Quickie

The Bachelor, Season 14, Episode 7?

I find my enthusiasm for watching and writing about The Bachelor declining, but I don't want to disappoint Anonymous. Suck it, anonymous! This is going to be a quickie none-the-less.

Monday night's episode showcased the four at home dates. In layman's terms for all you non-Bachelor experts, this means that Jason travels to the homes of the four final bachelorettes to meet the families and have alone dates.

Jillian - Alberta, lake, cold, very chatty, winery, fireside confessions of depression, tears, Canadian flags, aboot (as opposed to about), mom reading poetry, making out.

Molly - Michigan, golf course, bad pleated pants, Molly will never date a man her parents don't approve of, funny hats, Mom makes Jason draw a picture, peck out by SUV.

Naomi - California, strange family, hoola hoops, funerals for dead pigeons, reincarnation, Jesus, don't remember if there was kissing.

Melissa - Texas, wine and cheese outside, short shorts, family won't meet Jason, best friends, poor Melissa and her bad past relationships, playing pool, sitting on bed, can't remember if there was kissing.

In the end, Naomi did not get a rose. Jason just doesn't feel that she is ready to settle down and have a family. I don't know why he would think that...I thought all 24 year old flight attendants should want to get married and have an instant family. Naomi told him she would rather he told her that he had more feelings for the other girls than tell her that she's not ready for his lifestyle. Admittedly, Jason took the easy way out. We've all been there. Nobody really wants to say (or hear), actually it isn't me...it is you!

Girl bonding moment: After she was kicked off, Naomi told each of the other three women that she loved them.

It's funny. There does not seem to be a "bad girl" at the end of this Bachelor. The women all seem to really like each other (Now that Megan is gone) and the producers have not edited anything to make us hate one of the women.

I am rooting for Jillian because I feel that 24 and 25 is too young to settle down to an instant family with a 32 year old man and his son. Of course, to each their own, right?

  1. I liked it when Molly's Dad told her she'd better not cry in the limo if Jason didn't give her a rose.
