I agree, Babyjax, that the producers did encourage the breakup discussion to go on longer than it probably would have, but I also think Andi was looking for anything good about him, just anything, to justify to herself the reason she liked him at all during the last few weeks. You could almost see her thinking “I fell for this guy? What the heck? How could I have been so wrong?” So, Karuuna, my opinion is at that point I do not think she wanted him to indicate he actually cared for her but rather was trying to find a little bit of anything redeemable about him that would have justified her caring about him at all before the “sleep-over”. And yes, Babyjax, his constant touching, rearranging hair, etc. is a definite control thing. It is like brushing off imaginary lint from someone else’s clothes. It is a way of making someone feel inadequate at the same time elevating the lint-brusher’s position in a discussion. It is very subtle but effective.

Thanks Texannie! My favorite of his tweets was "Wait, does he know "Andi" is the person he's talking to?" LOL!

Start from the bottom and read up: Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 Andi must have crushed it on the debate team in high school. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 Andi #respect Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 Wait, does he know "Andi" is the person he's talking to? #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 Next time @clmgiudici gets mad at me I'm going to try out the "it's fine" approach. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 "Mmmm... I didn't know that." Always a good response after a girl tells you she loves you. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 It's gotta be a "lost in translation thing" Andi. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 This poor guy doesn't have a clue huh? Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 When he says he's not sure if you're going to be a good mother when you're in the final 3, you should go ahead and start packing your bags. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 “@JosieVanderVeen: I wish @SeanLowe09 could be the bachelor again.” I'm not sure my wife would agree. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 The babies part might happen in that hot tub. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 I think @chrisbharrison is recycling the fantasy suite cards. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 Who's she kidding? She's not turning down the fantasy suite. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 25 I wish every guy had a woman like @clmgiudici . Unfortunately there's only one. And she's mine. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 You haven't truly lived until you've been dumped on TV. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 "You're not respecting mama." Best line of the night. Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 How many past final four bachelor people would admit they weren't really in love? I'd best most of them. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 Renee seems the most real. She's got my vote. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 Andi's dad is keeping it real. Can't be mad at that. #TheBachelor Sean Lowe @SeanLowe09 · Feb 24 Asking for the parent's blessing was the hardest part for me. I still don't have @clmgiudici 's mom's permission.

It was worth all the editing out of non edit. From his other tweets and pictures, he and Catherine are enjoying each other and marriage. Cute.

That certainly is a relief! Beware spoilerish rumor included on that same link, about next Bachelorette. Just if that would be a problem.. (not a problem for me) From that link, about Juan Pablo..
quote:Juan Pablo Galavis will not be cast on the new season of Dancing with the Stars, multiple sources exclusively tell E! News. ABC does not comment on casting rumors, however, insiders who work on the show tell us that Juan Pablo initially was under serious consideration for a spot as a contestant on DWTS' season 18, but is "no longer wanted." "He's just too risky," says one source connected to the show. "There's too much negativity at this point." Juan Pablo has endured some serious backlash after his comments about why he thinks a gay Bachelor is not a good idea (saying his use of the word "pervert" was because of his language barrier), and two of the women decided to leave him on the show. The most recent, which aired Tuesday, was Andi Dorfman, who called Juan Pablo an "a—hole" who has "no filter," after Juan Pablo told her she had barely made the cut to the final three and that he had spent the night with one of the other women.

I'm surprised, no discussion about the Women Tell All. It seemed to be the general consensus that he is a jerk but Andie and Sharleen both went out of their way to say nice things about him. The support for Nikki and Clare seemed to be split. Why do you suppose they were both crying? Deceptive editing or no one makes the cut?

I had to laugh that even the women were "programmed" to state how much he loves to dance and what a great dancer he is. I didn't see it! So obviously a ploy to get on DWTS! I'm glad we won't have to see much more of this guy;what a disappointment! I am happy for Renee…..she seemed the most mature and grounded and deserves happiness. Apparently the time was right for her and the "new" man in her life. The general consensus that I got was that he was, indeed, shallow and self-absorbed. He uses the "language" as an excuse and came across as rather arrogant when he said, "I don't want to talk about it." Methinks he will face many important issues in his life by walking away rather than facing them to talk things out! Good riddance!

Sharleen was very kind to JP during the WTA almost to the point whether I wondered if she wants to date him in the future (for fun not as a serious commitment.) Or else he was not as dismissive with her as he was with the other women. IMO he came off as smug during the WTA show but maybe his attitude was a defense mechanism. His mother in the previews states he has hurt her feelings by his rudeness before. Also during the previews, I heard Nicki say again (I think this time she was throwing herself on the bed) while saying she just wanted to win. That is the second time I have heard her say that and I really feel she is in it for everything BUT him. Clare seems to like him. Why? I have no idea . I like both of the women equally so this is just something I noticed about them.

It appeared that he somehow had deeper discussions and possibly a deeper relationship with Sharleen than with the other women (though I have heard otherwise as well). She certainly gave the most favorable impression of him. I suspect they are setting Andi up to be the next Bachelorette. She was funny and outgoing but she was also quite careful.
