The Bachelorette 2017

It's seriously creepy. He said he will be in love with her forever. So if he ever does date again, the poor girl will have to deal with that.

...if Jarrod holds up Sophie as a benchmark for any other future girlfriend to achieve then he will be single forever methinks!... that's a very bold statement to make... he will die a lonely man... cheers.
 
It's not romantic if the object of your desire doesn't love you. That is when it becomes an unhealthy obsession. Presumably he won't stay single forever, so future partners are going to have to deal with his declaration of never-ending love for Sophie Monk. Do you see now?

It can still be romantic though because by saying that he will love her forever it shows what a special place she has in his heart.
 
I'd say it is better to be happy and alone rather than settling with someone.

...yes for some people my friend... but I for one love having my sweet darling wife... I have been one of the lucky ones... not all people find love whether or not it is just bad luck or intentional... each to their own I guess?... cheers.
 
why do you think jarrod wasn't right for sophie compared to Stu?
For me it is because with jarrod the conversation always felt more forced and emphasised like he was constantly convincing her of his undying love for her. With stu there was a lot more ease and naturalness to the conversation flow... It felt like mutual respect of two people who saw each others as equals not as one who has another on a pedistool.

is ease and naturalness conversation flow important or just an indication that stu is more charming than Jarrod? and putting someone on a pedestal is like making them greater then they are?
 
That he will love her forever.
Forever is a long time to devote emotions to a person who does not reciprocate them. What starts as sweet would slowly embitter that person as they are bound to a lonely and sad existance of loving somone who does not warrent having that love as they do not want it.
 
Here's the new Bach ad:

"Are you married? Perhaps just separated? Don't mind airing your dirty laundry on TV? Have more baggage than you can carry? You're perfect for The Bachelor, perhaps you'll be the lucky one to find adulterous love! Apply now!"

Urgh, this ending is so far from a fairytale, for me it's a nightmare. And the suspicious bitch in me wonders whether this was a setup from the beginning.

Kudos to them for actually making me want Jarrod to win because a couple of weeks ago I would have deemed that 100% impossible.

but can't you still love people from your past who through their interactions with you made the person you are today?
