HAVE A NECTARINE, GONK
I don't actually care about Grant & Ali or Meghan & Jake.
Same here, no care factor at all. Grant has given us no trace of emotion all series, he might as well be an android. I think Ali is making a mistake moving to LA, where she will be a lonely trophy wife.

10% says what’s the point?!
100% here saying WTF!!!!
Exactly! What a great philosophy! I'm 90% sure it will work out, but the other 10% says what's the point?
I like to apply that to my everyday life, so I don't even bother to get out of bed.

grant has the soul of a player. where the women are nothing more than a way for him to boost his own ego.

When will these people realise they have just partaken in glorified holiday romances? They don't work. Like, ever. Ali is making a huge mistake. Keira will eventually throw Jarrod to the curb. And Megan will go back to being a lesbian.
Meanwhile, if Sam and Tara don't work out, love is dead.

the jarrod and keira relationship will last the longest.

With Jake as the alternative, I think I would too.

i really don't understand how he had two women after him on that show. and that one of them was so obsessed with him that she was willing to look like a fool on national television.
Columbo

the two strongest relationships on the show mirror the two kind of relationships, the ones that last for a bit, that i see in real life. there is the sam and tara kind of relationship where they seem perfect for each other and never appear to argue, and then there are the jarrod and keira relationships where the couple seems to argue all the time. but they don't do it because they dislike each other, but because of their personalities.
the thing with Jake is - during the Georgia season he came across really well
what's turned us against him?
1 Tara blabbing "everyone on the GC has a Jake Ellis story" <which she has apologised for apparently>
2 Florence and her dramatics <they had history - she wanted to rewrite it ... he was more interested in going forward than looking backward - and with all the dramatics, whinging and b!tching Florence was doing who could blame him for moving on>
3 his apparent love of the party lifestyle <I seem to recall last night there was mention of him arranging functions? so it COULD be part of his job to entertain clients? who knows ...>
4 the squint - we'd be squinting too if we were in sunny fiji and not allowed to wear our sunglasses!
not sure if he deserves the backlash he's been getting especially if its on behalf of "poor hard done by Florence" who is well & truly able to look after herself and her own interests

I was actually willing to be won over by Jake this season, but it just didn't happen. I was thinking that after the comments by Tara and Flo, he'd go out of his way to prove he wasn't like that, but he either doesn't care or we weren't shown it. So instead we just got a really bland, kind of wishy-washy romance where all we saw was kissing, and all we learned about him was that he doesn't like talking. He didn't fight to prove to the audience that he is worth caring about. Which is his prerogative if he was just there for a free holiday and doesn't care what we think. So yeah, he's not bad, just kind of nothing.
it was pretty telling that Megan said they hadn't really share any intelligent <might have been deep? or serious? can't remember - last night was pretty much a snooze fest so I wasn't 100% engaged> conversation ...I was actually willing to be won over by Jake this season, but it just didn't happen.

takes two to make a conversation though - didn't see her trying to initiate any
(remember Sophie trying to talk to Apollo and all he could talk about was the breadsticks?!)

Dogs are the best people
I think Grant will probably propose because he seems to be a serial proposer. It sounds like he has been engaged at least twice before, so what's one more time? You think he would have learnt his lesson by now.

Yeah, would be the ultimate in BORING. Do they want to kill their show? Because this could do it.

lisa hyde as a bachelorette would be like having steak in a garden.
