BACHELOR RECAP
Quote of the night:
“Who knew strippers could play baseball?”
-Courtney about Blakely
First off, the girls crying about the baseball game was a little too much for me. I mean seriously girls.. you’re not in love annnnd you lost a baseball game.. not a family member.
Ben’s hair on his date with.. I forget her name… Anyways.. It was the first one on one date. His hair was parted down the middle with a greasy curly-q hanging down in front and the ends were hideously flipped out. Lets just say humidity is not in your favor buddy.
“They have no idea of what i am capable of”
-Courtney
I hate when people say this. It makes them sound like serial killers. Probably because anytime someone says it on a T.V. show.. they end up killing someone.
Elyse (how do we spell her name? oh we dont know) but she has some bangin legs!
Back to Ben’s hair.. on the yacht it was blowing to one side which made it look like an asymmetrical haircut on a manly hippie dike trying to go with the whole “beachy” look but failing oh so miserably… because…. well, ben….. you’re a dude annnnd you need to do something about your hair. I would love to take some thinning sheers on those lush locks. Hey, at least you won’t go bald benny boy!
I hate when the girls say:
“This is seriously the best date i have ever been on”
Well, no shhhhiii sweetheart. I mean I imagine the boys taking you out at home do not have ABC funding the dates? Any date on a yacht in Puerto Rico (for free) is going to be amazing even if you’re with Clay Aikon. I don’t know if you know this girls but uh… yeah Ben doesn’t pay for these dates! If he did you would be going to Olive Garden like the rest of us. (nothing against Olive Garden…. I freaken love that place)
He really should not have picked the rose up before telling Elyse she was going home… I mean that is like when your roommate makes these delicious cookies and you are so excited to eat one… thennnn she pulls out a plate and tells you they are all for her visiting teachers. It just isn’t right.
I will say one good thing about Courtney.. I loved when she said, “blew my panties off!” haha that was pretty good.
But really… Ben is a horny idiot!! I cannot believe he skinny dipped with that hook job! And you KNOW they had sex.. right? They had to… I feel like that is so deceitful to all of the other girls. Especially my girls Kacie B. and Lindzi. They are too good for him anyways.
I was also laughing when Courtney said at the rose ceremony, “Yeah this feels amazing”
well….. yeah you are no longer sexually frustrated…….
eeeek remember when red head Jennifer said to Ben at the rose ceremony, “I just havent seen you in so long! Our date was so amazing! I just wonder what is next 
”
”errrr.. well I don’t know how to say this Jen.. but uh… you’re going home. That is what is next.
Lets get personal for a sec now while I spill my guts out.
Blakely. Lets talk about her and I for a long sec. My roommate said it perfectly, “she is a hooker bar tender/cocktail waitress and rocks it” she totally does. She doesn’t try to pretend to be anyone she isn’t which I love. I also LOVE what she said to Ben. In case you missed it.. she told him how she never thought that a guy like him would ever like a girl like her. She had an epiphany and realized that she deserves that… she deserves to have a good guy and deserves to be treated like a princess.
I think a lot of girls grow up already knowing that, and that is so great. I, myself, did not realize that until I moved up to college. I was really shy in high school and dated a boy for 3 years. I won’t say anything negative about him as a person because he is a great person, but he was not loyal to me and was extremely dishonest. Basically our whole 3 year relationship was one big lie. Many times during that 3 year period I would hear, what I thought were “rumors” about my boyfriend cheating on me or doing drugs but I refused to believe them. Mostly, I think I was scared to be alone and didn’t want to deal with the heart ache mixed with me being so extremely, embarrassingly, naive. Eventually lie after lie after lie came out and I realized who he really was. (not to say HE is a bad person, I care very much about him, he just made poor decisions)
After I came to terms with that relationship being over for good I had to move on. I moved to Utah and moved in with my first roommate Haven. She was such a rock in my life at that time. She helped me realize who I am and what I deserve without even knowing it. Some of us it takes time and maybe some girls reading this still don’t realize how special they are and what a special person they deserve. I don’t even know how it happens I just remember one day realizing it all. A lot of it came from taking the time to literally write down what I was good at, what my goals were, what my weaknesses are and how I can work with them, what my strengths are, etc. I look back and am heart broken when I think about myself not realizing my full potential and how special I really am. Every girl is. Every girl deserves the ABSOLUTE best no matter what their past is, no matter what they look like, no matter what their job is, etc.
I used to look back at high school and specifically that 3 year relationship and just wish so badly I could go back and save myself from all that heart ache. But I now realize how thankful I am for those experiences. I dreeeam of being a mother one day like every girl does. I know now what girls need to hear growing up and what I want to remind my children of every single day. I don’t know that I would know that had I not been through those difficult times.
If you know you could be treated better, or have a friend who married an amazing guy and just think, “I will never find that.” That is so silly. Yes you will and drop that loser you are dating on his face immediately. It will suck for a while but then it goes away. Being alone is so much better than being with someone who is not good for you. You don’t need a ring on your finger to show the world you are a good person. Trust me, I am 100% single and 100% happy.
I know I joke about all these girls, mostly because it is easy to since I do not know them… But it really is all in good fun. I just thought it was so sweet hearing Blakely say that at age 33. Good for her. She deserves it.
Oh my goodness…that post was so great. Life is so hard sometimes and there are a lot of guys out there that suck. And if someone as beautiful and amazing as you has gone through that, then I’m in good company. Seriously, Amber, thanks for sharing
good post, good testimony.
I have one thing to say about the bachelor… There is NO crying in baseball!
haha you’re seriously hilarious. so glad someone showed me your blog a while ago. loves.
Love reading your cute blog! Great post!
I love this AND I love YOU! Don’t know what I would’ve done without you at the Branbury! I’ve missed the last 2 bachelor episodes but I don’t even care because I agree Ben is seriously theee worst. You crack me up with your bachelor recaps though!
