Well he was my favourite to win during the season because I could tell that his feelings for her were real, then they got married and now they have a little baby. And they're real without being arseholes.
Because they're crazy lol

How can you tell when someone's feelings are real? Any signs or anything like that?

I doubt we'll get it from instagram. Maybe someone will sell their story to a magazine?

I'm not the best person to ask. The only person I am following on twitter is Heather and I don't have facebook.

‘Why I don’t want my daughter to watch The Bachelor’

ANY woman who has been dumped knows how bloody awful it is. It’s devastating and takes forever to get over, and that’s not when you share it with 1.5 million Australians.
That’s how many people tuned in to see Lana unceremoniously dumped by the Bachelor Sam Wood on Thursday night.
It was pretty brutal. She was introduced to the family, shed a tear with Sam’s sister and thought she had met the love of her life. He was telling her how great she was, telling her she was the perfect girl but just not the perfect girl for him. Bam. There it is, over in one fell swoop.
Of course, this is what she signed up for in her pursuit for love. We all know how The Bachelor ends. But seeing her fighting back tears in interviews yesterday makes me question why we support this public humiliation and devastating heartache — and let’s not forget the fact we are actively saying it’s OK for men to date and pash multiple women at the same time.
I’ve watched every episode of The Bachelor and even got together with a girlfriend on Thursday night to watch the finale while drinking wine and eating cheese.
I mean, we made a night of it. We were texting friends, putting our best guess forward as to who was going to get the final rose (and, like the rest of the country, we had our money on Lana).
I couldn’t get enough of last year’s Bachelor and was totally enthralled by love-rat Blake, so, yes, I’m an absolute hypocrite because I think the message The Bachelor sends is horrid.

I’ve recently become a mum. My little girl is only one, but I don’t know how many times I’ve said I would hate it if she watched this show. I would hate it even more if she went on it.
When Snezana finally told Sam that she had fallen in love with him, he replied, “It’s so nice to hear you say that”. Say what? I realise he is restricted in what he can say and isn’t allowed to tell her how he feels, but that’s the problem. What sort of message is this sending to young men everywhere?
After Sam’s pitiful response to Snez, I turned to my friend, who has two young sons, and said, “You don’t want your boys watching this”. It is seriously destroying the dating game for our future generation.
Lana’s final date with Sam made it look like it was a match made in heaven.Source:Supplied
The major problem with this show is that is it highly entertaining. It’s addictive TV; that’s why we all can’t get enough of it. Another big problem is the gap between when the girls are dumped, to when it is screened to the masses.
Lana had to endure a painful four months of silence after she was dumped because she was not allowed to say boo about it until the finale aired.
That’s pretty tough going for anyone. All you want to do when you go through a breakup is eat a lot of chocolate and cry on a girlfriend’s shoulder. She didn’t even get to talk it through with Sam and get some answers — all she had were his final words uttered in front of a huge camera crew and under burning bright lights.
Sam said he had checked in with Channel Ten and the production company Shine after the finale and was assured Lana “was doing really well”. So he left it there.
Surely, it’s the responsibility of Ten to look after these girls? When Sam asked if she was OK, they should have said, “No, she’s feeling like shit, she’s heartbroken and embarrassed”. They should have facilitated some sort of conversation between the two, and offered Lana some counselling. Perhaps if she wasn’t so visibly traumatised four months on, I would feel more comfortable about the nation lapping up every moment of this reality TV show.
Oh how the tables have turned … Sam Frost is now the one handing out the roses.Source:Channel 10
I mean, look at Sam Frost from last season. She was the jilted lover left heartbroken and embarrassed after Blake got cold feet and decided he should never have asked her to marry him. She was also devastated at the time, and yet in just a few days she will be back on our TV screens as our first Bachelorette searching for love.
I guess the only saving grace is that it levels the playing field when it comes to the dating game and shows all the girls out there that it’s not just the guys who get to pick and choose.

Oh, darling, nothing to do with that schemozzle. It was well before the season even started! I thought that was very cruel of Con to bring that up, given Trala and I kiss and makeup like clockwork every year after our little spats. I am too old and tired to fight for very long with Tra and tend to retire with palpitations...
The old fellow must have his beady eyes trained on all the females in here, waiting for incursions!
First time I've actually been really jealous of a Bachelor contestant...I'd love to hang out with Rosie lol
