Arie Luyendyk Jr - Lauren Burnham - Bachelor 22 - Discussion #3

It's possible Arie was parked, but based on Arie's history I think we should not give him the benefit of the doubt.

So what we see here is Arie driving without a seat belt, while taking selfies, and Arie was undoubtedly emotionally cheating on Lauren at the exact same moment as well. Like we've been saying all along, it's a wreck waiting to happen, literally and figuratively! All IMO.

Have no fear, they were at a travel stop per Arie’s IG

It's not up to me what is posted/allowed and not.  But I am allowed to voice my opinion and I've stated why I feel that way. It's not meant to be personal.   At this point, it's agree to disagree, I guess.

Maybe the pic of the dog is going to change minds. We'll see.

TBH, it's rather unlikely that an IG pic of Arie and Lauren with her cutie-patootie dog will turn this into a fan thread IMO. @rosefever making what I took to be a tongue-in-cheek remark about lack of seatbelts when Arie is clearly not driving IMO created an opportunity to opine about stupid behavior and accidents happening. 

A quick peek at other couples' general discussion threads show precious little photos of them with their adorable kiddos, date nights, pregnant bellies, "business" ventures and other positive life events. Perhaps I missed it, but non-fans weren't complaining. 

Thank you for clarifying for all @lipsis! Good luck with your jello eggs and I'm hoping my attempt at deviled eggs is successful.

JMO, but adding instagram pics from them in this thread is for general discussion of the picture (good and bad).
In addition, it gives everyone something new to talk about (good and bad).

Thanks Lipsis!

@lipsis thanks for the clarification

I was just joking around trying to keep things a little bit light-hearted in here.

The thread has been cleaned and is going to be locked for awhile.
For those that have issue, you can continue to post about how awful we, mods and this forum are at other forums and make sure to point out you rarely post here anymore.

IMO, the dog's face says it all.

He's probably not happy to be cooped up in the car as they travel across the country.

Our Golden Doodle loves loves loves the car. He loves the car more than the house or playing outside. And he likes alll of those things,

The only thing he likes more is the water.

I doubt very much that they weren't wearing their seat belts. Arie has seen enough of his friends passing away at these races. The race cars all have seat belts safety harnesses to strap the drivers in. IMO they wore seat belts.

I don't feel it's pertinent to specify other places in a thread.
