I just didn't see the passion between Emily and Jef that she had with Ari or even Sean. I think she wants the "family life" that she saw at Jef's home town visit and feels that its a safer choice. I didn't really care for Ari and all the lip locking they did but that could have been presented that way by the editing - just showing all that instead of the deep conversations they had, including talking about Ricki. I hope it works but I don't put much faith in the shows results. Rumors were around that she had met Jef before the show started through Michelle Money, a mutual friend.

I figured Ashley would be the new bachelorette, thinking of some of the last ones and she stood out as the best one in my opinion as the best bachelorette. Brad and Emily both have tempers and I think the watching the Monday night episodes were tough to watch. Emily said if Brad knew she was probably going to be the one, why wasn't she treated more special. I think she was though, remember one of the first shows where he brought a basket with a special cloth to sit on and I think something to drink, the other girls got jealous. I hope they work things out. I really think Brad loves her deeply.

Someone asked her in an interview on DWTS if she was planning to start dating or get married again.She quickly answered,"No! And who would be interested in someone with 8 kids anyway?" I don't know,I guess I'm the odd man out here but I would hope that some day there would be a man out there that would love her and her kids.Maybe one with lots of money.LOL

It you watch the scene with Ed again you can tell the pictures they show after the light came on were from earlier when they were rubbing oil on each other. Notice every light and candle were burning and they were wearing the same clothes? The picture of Ed sitting on the balcony was also from earlier. Do you really think they got the camera crew and told them to come back in and lit every light and candle again? As for Kip and Reid, you really don't know how long the camera crews were there. They just didn't show as much but they might have hung around a bit, too. We just don't know. They move stuff around to make it looks like he couldn't perform but I don't think it was that at all. If anything I think they were both tired and sunburned.
