Karma. That kind of says it all. First off – what Molly & Jason do is up to them. They are the ones that have to live with it after the cameras are gone. Jason has been a total fake since season one. Personally I think he and Deanna kind of deserve each other but they would fight over who gets the most press. Melissa didn’t deserve this – except for the fact that she knew what she was in for when she signed up. Jason should have been smarted and looked for the red flags (a-she looks exactly like a younger, thinner Deanna and b-he didn’t get to meet her parents and c-she responded with the emotions and temperment of as Grey’s Anatomy says “a dark and twisty soul”). Just as Molly should be smart enough to see the red flags from Jason (a-failure to commit, b-inability to stick with a decision, c-drama queen). I am looking forward to the normalcy and kindness of Jillian and think she is the best thing to come out of this season.
You know, Jason’s single father act can only go so far, but the sweet innocent girl one…
Tons of people change their mind in relationships, they break up, they date two people, they cheat, etc. I just think it is not something I want to see on tv. I like to watch shows that restore my faith in people, that shows there are people that care and I was disappointed in Jason. (He was portrayed the previous season as the guy in it for the right reasons, with a seriously cute son and wanting to complete his family.) Reality (maybe) says he is a divorced dad with shared custody that hasn’t figured out what the heck he wants yet and is easily swayed by producers and a bunch of attention that went to his head.
So Jason, when Molly dumps you are the cameras going to be rolling then? Won’t the producers “make her” do it on national tv??
Makes you wonder why Melissa’s parents did not want to be involved in the Bachelor home town dates. Maybe they know something about Melissa we don’t.
If Mellissa is so beautiful, why would she need to go on a TV show to find love? I think she is the actor and a fake and yes she do behave like a little kid. She has a boyfriend now named Ty…but she knew him for two years before the Bachelor show, so I think she may have been dating him and dumped him. What is this I read about her sleeping with a guy who was engaged with some other lady? Now you know how it feels to have your heart broken. You derseve what you got. What goes around comes around. Good Luck!!
