I am torn between Ryan & Charlie for her.
Although it looks like Ryan is REALLY in love with her!

What do you think?

Re: The Bachelorette

I have to go with Ryan. He reminds me a lot of my hubby. I was originally for Bob (he cracked me up)
I have to admit I am starting not to like her.

I heard that Charlie and Russ were seen w/the actor from FRIENDS playing ball or something. . .

Jenhos-
I agree- her face when she saw greg's apartment made me sick.
And the way she was talking with Charlie's family - 'it's one of the best restaurants in LA' or 'shosana was flown in to fit me into my gown.'
I'm doubting her sincerity more and more...

I don't know ladies.
It's VERY easy to get swept up in the glamour of it all. I think that is what happenned, and she was trying so hard to impress Charlies parents, I think she was just talking out of her boonda.
And I would've had the same look on my face seeing Greg's apt, even though it probably cost an arm and a leg, it looked like a college students appt, not a grown mans. JMO.

I wasnt rooting for him anyway! I like Ryan or Russ for her, still upset about the football dude going!! it doesnt seem like there is much chemistry w/ her and Charlie

Re: The Bachelorette - JENHOS

I'm telling you.......she doesn't end up with Charlie.

I'm with JENHOS - I'm starting not to like her too. Thought the laughs were more fake and forced at this point. Granted, the chick has been through a lot in the exhausting Choosing a Husband process, but still. Really glad she didn't cry again or I woulda had to smack her...

Re: The Bachelorette - JENHOS

Love all the comments and must admit I agree with a lot of them. I too thought Russ was more normal around his family, but he also looked uglier too . I used to think Charlie was a smooth player, but I thought he came off as a nice guy yesterday although any man who needs his mom's approval so bad is NOT good news!!!!

And I'm glad it's not just me who started to see another side of Trista yesterday. Her laugh and the phony sweet voice she used when opening all her gifts made me want to puke. And how about how after every date she said 'I can totally see myself with XXX'. Is she kidding?

Re: The Bachelorette - JENHOS

I watched last night with my sis and my FH. My sis and I are obsessed with Ryan. We were practically drooling over how perfect he is...my FH was like 'want to give the ring back and find Ryan J.k?'

If she doesn't pick him she is DUMB!!!

thrilled do you have an inside scoop?? Give me the low down

Re: The Bachelorette

I too ladies am obsessed with this show - it she doesn't pick RYAN she is a FOOL - I heaed Greg on WPLJ this morning and he told them that he's going to be on Good Morning America tomorrow morning since they are going to give his NYC apt a makeover a la Trading Spaces - god, he needs it -t then again, why guy's apt doesn't!

Re: The Bachelorette

Trista's crying needs to stop. I totally agree. The end always iritates me. First Captain Obvious has to step in and tell everyone that that there is one rose left and whoever is left without a rose has to leave. Oh, is that how it works??? Then Trista starts crying and talking about how this hurts her so much. Blahhh!

Re: The Bachelorette

Greg was the Real Catch IMO. Such a cutie...but the Birthday Rap dug his grave.....ewww. Be tween that and the apartment, he was toast.

Re: The Bachelorette

the bday rap LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! i guess gotta give him credit fo rtrying but i was like, OMG how awful!

endlessluv429 Posted: Jan 30, 2003 01:53 PM

Re: The Bachelorette

I was soooo mad when she allowed Russ to stay! He is such a weasel!! I really like Ryan the best-he is such a genuine sweetie! I loved how he asked his dad for love advice!
I liked Greg and wished he would've stayed instead of Russ--I hope Ryan's location doesn't deter her from choosing him--Charlie is ok -he's better than Russ but I don't trust him for some reason!
Trista was bothering me last night with her high pitched minnie mouse voice! but i was shocked when she picked Russ because she voiced concerned about him being so nervous and that making her pull away--o well we shall see!

Re: The Bachelorette

Regis and Kelly were re-capping the show this morning, too. Kelly hates Trista - well, she dislikes the idea of the show at least. So, Kelly's all rolling her eyes and saying how rude and shallow Trista was for dumping Greg b/c of his apartment. Kelly's like, 'Welcome to REALITY! This is NYC and it's expensive here!' LOL!! (Go Kelly!)

I agree...Trista is very into the lavish Hollywood crap that's being showered upon her, and she probably felt that a life w/Greg would not provide her with the lifestyle she wants and has grown accustomed to. It's obvious how disingeniuous her whole attitude is...she really doesn't care to find a husband...she just wants a Hollywood TV/movie career and a trophy guy to go along for the ride. Even the guys' families were debating her sincerity last night b/c of her background!

Poor Ryan...he really seems like he's genuinely falling for her, and I think out of the 3 guys left, he's the one most likely to get his heart broken. Charlie's a playa and Russ is half playa, half wanna-be playa...he's not good looking or smooth enough to pull the routine off completely.

But, of course I won't miss a minute of the remaining shows...just to see how it all turns out!! LOL!

Re: The Bachelorette

I was looking at the redenvelope website and I came across Charlie's bday gift. It was $50!!!!

Re: The Bachelorette

$50 bucks for that little thing. Charlie got ripped off. I think the show told them to bring her 'sentimental' gifts. Russ gave her a Tiffany's bracelet the first night and then gave her a picture for her b-day. There was definate coaching involved there!!!

If Ryan doesn't win I will be very sad for him. I thought his home town looked beautiful!!! She should pick him and live there.

Re: The Bachelorette

Does the baby voice she puts on annoy anyone else? You just want to tell her to act her age. I have also heard that she picks Charlie but who knows. His family was a bit annoying but I did like the way they picked her apart. Greg is def the hottest but you ladies are right in that he dug that grave the second that first word of his rap song came out. Russ just needs to get a life and go home. He is the most annoying and truly the biggest a** kisser I have ever seen and looks like he could be a potential stalker!

bride04 Posted: Jan 30, 2003 06:42 PM

Re: The Bachelorette

I hope she picks Ryan! Russ is so skeevy! Why does she keep him around! I think Trista seems so superficial after seeing her reaction to Greg's apartment. I think Charilie's brother is right about her-she is probably very high maintenance and really needing to be showered with attention.
