Really, Jake? Really??

So now everyone will know one of my guilty pleasures, The Bachelor. Thanks to my sorority sisters for that one :).

So for any not watched the final episode of this season's Bachelor , read no further, because my rant will spoil the surprise.


I have watched The Bachelor almost religiously since season one, with its ever increasing drama and with more "this has never happened in Bachelor history" moments with each episode. Of course last season's Bachelor, Jason Mesnick, and dumping his first choice of Melissa with the more adventerous finalist, Molly. Controversy has surrounded this big switch with statements that the network instructed Jason to chose Melissa, who was not his first choice, so she could be dumped on national television months later.

Unlike Vienna, I did like Molly. Her personality was vivacious and caring, and while she did have her fair share of fights with fellow housemates, they pale in comparison to the scandal surrounding Vienna. When Jake sent Tenly Molzahn packing, I started screaming at my laptop, "What are you thinking!"

My passion arouse from the feeling that Jake, this kind, handsome, and seemingly mature man, was making one of the worst decisions that he will ever make. There were so many signs throughout the season that Vienna really had some maturing to do. From stories of how she wrecked and car, whined, and her father purchased a brand new vehicle, to her completely inability to get along with any women on the show, either the producers are weaving a new "never happened" moment, or there is something wrong with this girl. When woman after woman comes us to you saying that Vienna is not right for you, no one can get along with Vienna, Vienna is spoiled, etc., wouldn't that give you a clue that something is up??? Jake! Grab Tenly while you can! Forget Vienna's rebeliousness, it's fun now, but wait until you try to make that marriage work!

This craze for picking the wild child for your mate is going to lead to some interesting resluts.

Who knows, maybe the network created a villain out of a very sweet girl. But when Veinna comes pouting to Jake because she wrecked their brand new volvo and wants an new one, you can't say I didn't tell you so.
