All By Myself.....

Hello!! I am late posting again, so sorry about that, but I am excited to dish about this week's episode. So good!

Okay, so I am really happy with her decisions this week. I think she was right on sending Kasey and Chris N. home. Finally we heard Chris N. speak....and it wasn't so pretty. Good move, Ali.

So, they arrived in Iceland and had a poem-showdown for the one on one date. I was DYING for Chris N as he recited his incredibly odd poem to her. He looked so terrified up there. Poor guy! Frank thought he had it in the bag, but Kirk came in and stole the show with his Rootbeer Eyes line. I wish it would have been Roberto or Chris L, but I am wondering if they even had a chance since they had already been on one on ones with her? Oh well.

So...her one on one with Kirk. I don't know why this guy bugs me. Okay, so their date was not awful, he seemed more genuine and his story of near death did soften me a bit. But I am still not team Kirk by any means. I think this guy is too close to the brink of overly-cheesy for my taste. Oh, and it drives me nuts how he is constantly manhandling her face when they kiss. It's a bit over the top for me. Whatever.

Group date: Well, Ty was definitely in his element, but as far as he and Ali go, I am not seeing the chemistry. I guess she felt it enough to give him the rose, but I am not feeling it. I like him enough, just not for her. I am still loving Roberto and Chris L. A lot! I think Roberto is cuter but I like Chris L's personality more.

Two on One: I guess Ali is a glutton for punishment because it took another totally awkward date with Kasey for her to finally send him packing. Her reaction to his tattoo was classic. Her eyes looked like they would pop out of her head. SERIOUSLY Kasey, now you have that hideous mark for the rest of your life! A great daily reminder of how you got dumped. So, they left him on the glacier. All alone. "Allll by mysellllllllllllf....."

The only thing I would have changed about this 2 on 1 date is I think she should have sent Justin home, too. I don't think he is right for her, and he annoys me more and more each week. Although then she would have had an extra rose to hand out, so I guess that would have kept Chris N. here. Whatever. Hopefully Justin leaves next week.....

Which brings me to 'the mystery guy who has a girlfriend'. Who do you think it is? We are starting to think it's Justin. At first I didn't think so because he had crutches and the guy who leaves doesn't....but now he's in the boot so it could totally be him. DON'T spoil it for me if you know (I have remained spoiler free thus far!) but if you are up for pure speculation, tell me what you think!!

So the award for 'guy who surprised me the most in a good way' goes to Craig. He really is funny! I liked his poem and I was laughing out loud when he drew the tattoo on his arm. Very witty, Craig! I wish he was a bit cuter, though. He seems like he could get lost in the friend zone. I am thinking if a guy hasn't kissed her yet (um, Justin and Craig, I think?) he is probably not going to get over the friend hurdle. Just my opinion, though.

Okay, so I am looking forward to next week! I will be in Utah and hopefully be watching with my sister/s. I am so excited to have a group to dish with, pause and analyze with, and bask in all the drama with. YEAH!

Just watched. I thought her choices were good on who she sent packing. I'm dying to know who she gives "what for" to next week.

Casey, oh poor boy. Like she said he was in love with love. But toning it down buddy does not mean run out and get a tat.

Other guy she let go, can't say I even knew who he was. There is always one that makes it to the last 10 and you go , who was that? :)

I'm still On Team Chris L and Roberto but Frank was my surprise this week. He seems really genuine and sweet. Kirk... there is something about him to me that is just off, not sure what. I'm wondering if it's him that has the at home girlfriend, just because Ali seems to feel he is not being 100% honest and open and maybe that is what he is keeping from her, not the whole "I got sick" thing.

Love the recaps as always!

Could it be Kirk who has the girlfriend? I did think it was pretty crazy when he told her everything he'd been though. How nuts was that?!

Thanks for the post! I always look forward to reading them! I just get teased to no end for watching this show, but it's nice to have you to "chat" with!!

so i guess i would think it was justin who has the girlfriend too... except that she says something like - "after all we've been through...this is how you want to leave..." or something like that, and I don't feel like she's been through ALL THAT MUCH with justin. so we'll see.

i'm hoping for more excitement because this last episode was so predictable. of course she would get rid of crazy kasey, and nobody even knows who that other guy is...

i also think you are RIGHT... anybody she hasn't kissed yet, it probably isn't going to happen.

have fun in UTAH! say hello to the mountains for me!
