Maybe because I see our GFGs in Vienna? I was probably the only one that did like her and I really didn't like Tenley.
Emily just strikes me as fake and plastic. I know a lot of southern girls like that . . . sugar wouldn't melt in their mouth and they are in church every Sunday but they are total hypocrites. Remember that sweet Emily got pregnant at an early age. I don't think she was as sweet and innocent as she was portrayed on Brad's season. I think that the true Emily came out at the After the Rose ceremony. She was cold as ice.
I guess you can tell that I really didn't like her. I guess I like the bad girls (except Courtney). LOL

Well, I can't stand either trashy Courtney or fake Emily (or Vienna or Tenley, for that matter). Pass the barf bag for all, please.
I would like to smack Ben upside the head for being such an idiot. Honestly. I'm so disappointed in him I could scream.

Evidently Courtney is not only a model but also a physical fitness guru. Those careers are not for the bashful or demure. I'm very curious what the family visits will bring and I don't doubt for minute that she will be included. Sigh.

DH & I have raised our 25 yr.old grandson. At 14 he turned to pot & booze to cope with problems. He's a GFG#1. In 2005 he fell off a balcony, had brain surgery and has TBI effects. His recovery is very stressful. Time will tell if he ends up GFG or PC. Our GFG#2 is 21 and now lives with his GFGmom. He's ADHD, AS, BP plus. DH and I have 6 children and 11 grands. Yikes!
I'd like to hold Ben while you slap him upside the head, Susie. OMG, what is the man thinking? Well, obviously he's not. Ughhh.
I really don't find Courtney that beautiful. Models are necessarily the most beautiful; they photograph well or have a different look sometimes. The way she screws up her mouth and bites it constantly drives me over the edge. lol. I actually liked the one he sent home last night. She was a pretty girl and very smart and seemed just genuinely nice. Guess that's why he sent her packing. lol.
I ask myself every week why I watch this, and yet like a trainwreck, I just can't seem to stop.
