Robby Hayes - Bachelorette 12 - **Sleuthing - Spoilers** #2

So true!

But his personality isn't coming across on the show, as usual for TPTB, IMO. I find him a total faker, just playing along with this whole silly thing, but not in a bad way, just in a happy to be on tv, hoping to get far enough to get famous kind of way. That ILY was as cheesy as it gets to me (now part of that could just be bad editing/storytelling by TPTB but since I've barely seen him with Jojo that's how it came off to me). Even her face was like "huh?" I don't mind Robby, but I def have no love for him either. IMO F4 and F3 are where it's at this season. The finale will be a bit of a let down for me once my faves are gone.

YES!!!!! I see Robby the exact same way as you! I was beginning to think I was the only one. He's so phoney baloney, but kind of in a harmless way. He said the ILY cause that's what he thinks he needs to do to stay in the game, and he's just here for his 15 minutes and he wants to live it up!

Am I alone here on my island? No worries though, Robby fans. With me not feeling it, there is totally a legit chance he is the next Bachelor. With like 2 exceptions, I never like who they pick for the next lead!

Funny your description of Robby is mine for Lauren. Dead eyes, fake going back to work (not going to happen) and with an alterior motive to get lots of SM love. So to each their own, I see lots of humor in Robby's eyes and really appreciate following both he and Luke on SM. So to each their own, we can't all like the same people.

Not totally sure what the heck Lauren has to do with my initial comment, other than you know I'm a fan. No worries- to each their own. For what it's worth, I don't think she's going back to being a flight attendant any day soon either. And alterior motives to get lots of SM love applies to like 99% of the Bachelor population, and like 75% of Millenials in general. So yeah, Lauren is probably included there.

Robby's fine. I think he's kind of amusing. I just don't buy that he's actually in love. I don't even think he thinks it's bubble love. He's just having a good time- living it up. It's carrying over to real life right now. His ex is a total wackadoodle, so we agree there.

I see Robby not as a fake, but the real enchilada.   

Robby's whole persona feels fake to me. The show one is just so unbelievable that I don't think even he believes what he's saying. And then you have his social media antics which are just OTT that I do anything but shake my head at him.

It's your prerogative Um.

Yas Robby! The sauna is my version of putting in work! Sweat awayyyyy!

I like Robby's positive attitude. I haven't seen where he has thrown shade to anyone. He's just having fun and I don't think there is anything wrong with that. I think any girl he gets together with will enjoy the ride. I hope it's not going to be the wackadoodle again.

The wacky wacko has gained about 10-12 thousand followers since her and Chad's stupid SM game. Think that did the trick..?

Robby : ily
(Or whatever he said)
Jojo : Thank you.

I died a hundred deaths of embarrassment for each of them separately.

It would have been okay if she had wanted to hear it, but she was so disinterested it was hysterical. I think she forgot she was the lead in that moment and didn't know wtf to do. Poor Robby.
