My thoughts on The Bachelor and Jason "Jerk" Mesnick...

I have been typing this post since last night, and have been trying to process how I was so dumb to get sucked into this silly, silly show. What a waste of my life. 

My thoughts on this show: 

1. I liked Melissa from the beginning. She was sweet, seemed genuine, and I just liked her. Okay? Jason, aka public enemy number 1, chose Melissa. He chose her! Yay! I am never right on these shows! But then....

2. He changes his mind. He "can't control his feelings". Note: We control our feelings everyday. This is why we don't run in to the back of the car in front of us, even though they have cut us off in bad traffic. This is why we don't hit our co-worker, boss, or friend when they make us really mad. It is called controlling your feelings. 

3. Then he publicly humiliates Melissa.  According to several sites, Melissa knew that this might be coming. You can watch the video at the bottom of this post to see Jason's interview with Jimmy Kimmel. (He discusses this.)

4. Then, Jason tries to get Molly back. She seems shocked, but them she kisses him. She just melts and takes him back. Why would she trust him? He dumped you once,
and then publicly humiliated Melissa.

5. Jason says that this is the way he feels, and if people don't like it, then they don't like it.

6. Jason walks over to Chris Harrison and accepts a trophy for being the "All-time-Jerk-of-the-Bachelor". (This didn't really happen. :)

I don't think this was staged, as some bloggers and news stories are saying. I just think it
is DUMB.

Please tell me how you feel....cause I feel MAD and HURT.

Much love,
Allison

  5. Thanks! We like her. She is a german shepherd mix. We are not sure...she is a mutt. She is a lot bigger than we thought she would be, but she is a great dog and we love her! :)
