Ruqibabe wrote:@chasus71 I really really really like Abigail but I dont think Matt would pick her.. I am not sure if he deserves her preciousness yet.. From the bachelor happy hour interview, it seems Abigail still really likes and respects Matt..  She holds him in high esteem.. 
Abigail also didn't feature in the previews..

Michelle is prominent in a few shots where she says something like she's found the person who can change the world with her or something like that, which makes me think she doesn't win. And there's a kissing scene.
I agree that she has been quiet though, so not sure what that means.
Rachael has that scene with Matt about recognizing color, but she's basically hidden except for a couple of crying shots.
I would be happy to be proven wrong as I was wrong last time with the 'ette.
I just think it's simple, and he chose the girl who's never been in love.
Looking forward to what clues you all find along the way.

Sad that Abigail isn’t in the mix if this is true.

BTW, I feel female leads tend to give us more clues (Kaitlyn, Rachel, Tayshia) who the f1 is, but male leads don’t. I wonder maybe the women are more excited about their f1 and can hardly keep the secret especially towards the end, but the male leads are less into the relationship? Just think out loud,

Ruqibabe wrote:@chasus71  Yes... She is home and wholesome.. if it were to work out, It  might be like Zayisha's dynamic.. Abigail being Zac and  Matt being Tayshia. I see Abigail as Shy, maturity and has a quiet strength...  
I like her with Tayshia's Brendan though

Michelle's age, her passion for kids and her athleticism leads me to believe she is the real F1.  Most men who are already afraid of love and marriage are more inclined to go with someone who is grounded, mature and comfortable as opposed to taking a leap with someone who's never been in love.  A man wants to know his heart and feelings are safe.
*ETA Don't the producers begin questioning the Lead about their feelings for each of the contestants, 1. so they can arrange dates and also to get ideas of the frontrunners?  Perhaps he didn't see a strong enough connection with any of them, hence the additional ladies coming in after rose ceremony?
