Well I was trying to see if the rumor was right and she was pregnant--and, I swear it looks like there was something there.

But maybe it was there the whole time and I just never noticed?

Of course, I can't imagine ABC being thrilled with that outcome.

And for her sake, it has to be Jason. Again, I don't think she wants to be the woman that dumped the single father on national television...not after meeting his son.

LPIDelta 07-07-2008 09:41 PM

Ok... she is such a B!!!!

CuriousCasey 07-07-2008 09:43 PM

AMEN. And he'll have no trouble finding dates now I am sure.

texas*princess 07-07-2008 09:52 PM

OMG what a b----!

I hope Jason finds someone who is actually worth his time.

She is soooo full of (*#@!!! "oooh it breaks my heart... " Lord....

nittanyalum 07-07-2008 09:52 PM

WHAT.

AN.

IDIOT.

ZTABullwinkle 07-07-2008 09:55 PM

Has anyone noticed HOW MANY TIMES SHE MENTIONS BRAD???? I would think she would want to forget him, not always bring him up like she does. She made a mistake letting him get away. He is a catcH!

preciousjeni 07-07-2008 10:00 PM

I just happened upon the last episode just now. I don't even know the guy's name (Jason I know, but the other one I can't remember). Anyway, after he won the show - since that's what this was really about - the way he responded to her saying she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him was really weak. He sounded freaked out like he wanted to back out then and there.

ETA: Why didn't anyone tell me that "love" was the only component of a great marriage?

AGDee 07-07-2008 10:01 PM

We'll see where they are in 10 years when his snowboarding career is over. I *know* that Jason is going to find someone special because he's really special himself and deserves more than TV show love.

DoctorD 07-07-2008 10:03 PM

Jason just needs to call me.

AGDee 07-07-2008 10:22 PM

Jason has more class in his pinkie finger than Deanna has in her whole body. He handled that so well and with such dignity. What a great guy.

DoctorD 07-07-2008 10:24 PM

Like I said - Jason just needs to call me. :D

PeppyGPhiB 07-08-2008 12:52 AM

Jason won't be sleepless in Seattle much longer - he's now our most elligible bachelor! I'm taken, but I'll keep an eye out for him at the supermarket, park, beach, etc. :D

AlphaXi_Husky 07-08-2008 01:06 AM

I'm so pissed - she is dumb. Too quote a sister who I have been furiously texting for the past two hours "Their kids are going to look like d-bags".

Thinking back 100 years ago, can you believe that she gave Jesse the first impression rose? I can't believe that she picked Jesse...she is on drugs.

LucyKKG 07-08-2008 03:30 AM

Yeah, I concur. WTF, dude?

AGDee 07-08-2008 06:36 AM

During the Final Rose show, she said some things that made me think she's really just as flighty as Jesse. She told Jason that, with him, she had everything all planned out and she never plans anything.. it's not "her". So, maybe she is best off with Mr. Pro Snowboarder who doesn't need to plan for his next career as long as he has the perfect woman for him.

LPIDelta 07-08-2008 08:44 AM

What do you think the chances are Jason would be a Bachelor in the future? I don't know that I can see him doing it because of his son, but there have to be legions of women who would watch.

Of course, the whole jilted by someone who was previously jilted storyline could get old.

I think he'd make a FANTASTIC bachelor, BUT I doubt he'd accept b/c of his son. :(

srmom 07-08-2008 10:25 AM

Anybody else find it interesting how absolutely pissed she got when Jason mentioned that he wished she had looked at him like she looked at Jesse and GRAHAM? HAHAHAHA!! Her face turned beet red!!

I think she had the hots for Graham the entire time, and settled for Jesse. After she turned down Jason, I said to my son (who couldn't believe I was watching this show:o) that he dodged a major bullet!!

She must be a complete nutjob!

Why not? :confused: He was attention-hoggy enough to go on the dumb show. Why would having a son prevent him from going on another dumb show?

OtterXO 07-08-2008 11:48 AM

I think she is an idiot. I liked her, literally, until last night. She spent all season saying she wants to settle down and have kids, etc etc etc.....and she picks the guy who might want to be a sports agent when he grows up? I'm not saying she needed to pick Jason (if she wasn't feeling it) but I think her choice just confirms that she's extremely immature and not as ready for marriage and children as she said she was. Plus, what a biatch for taking Jason away from his son for longer than was necessary. I think it's pretty obvious now that she knew who she was going to choose far before the day of the final rose (even though of course she said she didn't). So instead of keeping Jeremy to "not lead him on" she keeps Jason, the guy who's son is waiting for him at home. I think Jesse will bail on her before their wedding and like someone said....they are going to have "interesting" looking children! haha

That kid will come out shnoz first.

Last night was the first time I saw this season, and even I knew she was an idiot for picking Scruffy.

Jesse's ring was heinous, IMO. You would think that with the show supplying the ring for you, you'd choose something a little nicer.

I loved the ring Jesse chose. I didn't like the one Jason selected.

I liked Jesse and Jason all along. If you go way back in this thread you'll see that. I liked that Jesse did and said what he wanted; there was no doubt to me that he was genuine the whole way through. Jesse could make a whole career out of snowboarding if he wants to, between being a pro now, running his non-profit later, and he could open a snowboarding school for quite a big profit I'm sure if he wanted to. There's nothing wrong with that. But DeAnna better not expect him to totally change because of her, and the problem is that I get the feeling she's expecting him to leave snowboarding behind, cut his hair (per her dad's requirement), and take a job doing God knows what down in Georgia. She picked him because he's unpredictable and exciting; I'm no psychologist, but my guess is that because of her dramatic childhood (her mom dying when she was young), she's seeking drama. What's sad is that if Jesse does "conform" the way I think she'll eventually want him to, and the way her dad will want him to, he'll be unhappy and she'll be bored.

Jason seemed caring, stable and family-oriented, but maybe that made him boring. DeAnna's comment about her life being planned out if she chose Jason is true - she just wouldn't have the wild time with Jason that she would with Jesse. She's going for the exciting, puppy dog love with Jesse, not the comfortable, nurturing love of Jason.

And props to whichever of you said that it takes more than love to make a relationship work. To quote the great Don Henley, "There's a danger in loving somebody too much, and it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust, there's a reason why people don't stay where they are, baby sometimes love just ain't enough."

I don't understand this line of thinking. Shouldn't that be a consideration that Jason should be more concerned about than DeAnna? He decided to go on the show. He decided to be away from his son for a couple of weeks.

I don't get it either. Do divorced dads not deserve to have a woman in their life? The way some people talk they make it sound as if Jason should give up on the idea of romantic love just because he has a son. He should be looking out for his own interests, too.

To me, it's more that she was SO concerned about leading Jeremy on...when she obviously did that to Jason too. I definitely think it was his choice to be on the show, but Deanna's concerns seemed to only pertain to things that had happened to her in the past (with the infamous Brad leading her on, etc.) and not so much to anything else.

Wait, in response to the post above....I never said anything about Jason not being allowed to find love, etc. I think it's fine he went on the show, but she should have realized that she was hurting him as well as his child by keeping him there when she already knew she was going to pick Jesse. My point is: Why so much concern for Jeremy's feelings and (seemingly) less for Jason's?

According to her, she didn't know she was going to pick Jesse until the morning of the proposals. She was right to keep Jason there to the end if she thought he could be the guy she would pick. Re: my comment, I wasn't necessarily directing it at you...there seem to be a lot of people on the "he spent so much time away from his son" bandwagon.

srmom 07-08-2008 02:03 PM

I'm sorry, but I just have a hard time believing that she didn't know she was going to pick Jesse until that last morning! Totally my opinion, but, a woman who truly thinks she is going to get proposed to by the man she loves will have a sneaking suspicion of who really "floats her boat, revs her engines, gets her spark going, etc" before the morning of the "engagement"

I don't think she really LOVED either one of them. The only one that she seemed to have that "animal attraction" to was Graham. The whole - "we were friends first, and then it turned to love" - over, what? 3 months, tops, seems like a bunch of hooey to me. She wanted to "be in love", she wanted to "be engaged", well, now she is...on national TV!!!

I give it 2 months 3 on the outside.

After watching Shayne and British Boy (what's his name), I give them negative 2 months. I think they are DONE - it didn't even seem like they liked each other any more. Doesn't matter what they said, body language said it all. She nearly sneered when he spoke or touched her....

SthrnZeta 07-08-2008 05:20 PM

I would watch it if Jason was the next bachelor. Would he do it remains to be seen. I don't think he'll have much trouble finding women but it may be harder to weed through them now is all. Jesse seems like a good guy so I can't fault DeAnna much on picking him. I liked the ring he picked better than Jason's. Did I see her picking him in the beginning though? Absolutely not. I was so sure it was going to be Jason, but that's why it's such great TV. Here's to season...14?

ETA: And eew to Shayne and the Brit. I soooo do not like her at all. And I definitely don't seem them being the next Trista and Ryan.

PeppyGPhiB 07-08-2008 05:21 PM

Notice the D&J's wedding date - May 9 - falls right into sweeps? I foresee another televised Bachelorette wedding.

That is exactly what I said to my husband when she said the date last night! LOL. And I love how they kept building it up as the "big announcement". After all the speculation going around, I thought they were building up to something big like her being pregnant. So when all they did was say they'd picked a date, I thought, "so?"

LOL, me too. I was like, that's the BIG announcement? Dooped again by Chris!

breathesgelatin 07-08-2008 09:45 PM

I am so expecting the televised wedding! YAY! I will be there if it happens.

I do think Jesse was a bizarre choice, but based on the character of his parents I am trying to believe that it could possibly work. I was pretty much spoiled for the ending (some sleuths at television boards had figured out it would be Jesse by evidence of re-shoots for the proposal), but I still don't get it, especially after the particularly awkward family date (though I guess sister-in-law Crystal was digging on Jesse). But seriously... teaching her grandma to do "nugs"?? uh, yeah.

I was glad Deanna admitted she has some compassion for Brad now, having gone through it.

I like Jason's ring better... and Jason FTW for calling her out about Graham. The look on her face was priceless. I didn't really like Deanna during Brad's Bachelor series, and I liked her even less for most of this series, but I did think she came off the best she has tonight. Jason was clearly crushed, but I thought she was at least kind and compassionate to him - unlike she was with Jeremy at the "Men Tell All."

I was hoping we might hear who the Fall Bachelor will be but I guess they haven't started filming yet. :(

Maybe Jeremy will be the next Bachelor? He's easy on the eyes and I think he took a real pummelling too.

Yeah, but him and Graham were being kinda d-bagish at the men tell all...
