Yes, please.

I think I have a headache.

Eta:

Tayshia’s going to break Ivan’s heart.
Ben gives me Colton vibes from what I know of Colton.
RS probably got it right and she picks Zac but it’s rocky.
I’m not clear on what Tayshia feels for Brendan and if they’ll try again if she and Zac end things soon.
That is definitely the ring from the IG story as I saw close ups of the Story ring on Reddit.

This is way too much drama for me. :P

@sdmom  
The sad part is, it could be any guy with any ring from any season.  TPTB are not above this ploy.

@ReneeM  IDK, for a frightening split second I thought who likes shades of purple and worried it was Bennett coming back yet again 

@pavalygurl

Aye, yi aye...As I was watching my Steelers lose, again, I had a message from a friend.  She had watched one epi while Clare was still the Bach'ette and wanted to know what I thought of this season and if she should watch the finale. 
Where to even begin?  I'll have to call her back tomorrow. 

I agree that Ivan is sitting on the bench about to get his heart broken in the preview.  I have so many thoughts, feelings about Brendan who is my fave but I have to think on it and process a bit.  His dear sad face is "breakin my hart" as DeAnna might say.  I thought Tayshia and Zac had a great date and I would be fine with him as F1, he's a really good man.  I just keep having a nagging that they'd been so out there with his edit that it might not be him in the long run.  I have no idea what to make of Ben.  Tayshia and the guys seem good post show, so that is a plus.

If Ivan is let go for Ben....... after she said she was falling for him too........that will be producers decision. Imo

Not sure which bachelorette came out saying that once she picked her F1, everything was organized for drama finale and she had little to say.

Ivan: I think he's a great guy but not the most dynamic on tv and irl. I do think he'd be great husband material but it doesn't appear that Tayshia sees him as much more than a friend. My thought after seeing their date was poor Ivan getting a trailer for the FS.

Brendan: He's been showing signs of not being sure for a long time. To me, the biggest red flag was the lie detector test even though I know they're not always accurate. It just seemed that he wasn't comfortable with the seriousness of meeting families. He handled leaving very well and I really didn't get that Tayshia was any more upset by that as she was with any the more recent guys leaving. She certainly didn't appear bothered by the time she talked to Rachel. I think Brendan was the type of guy she saw herself with at the end but that changed as the season went on.

Ben: I'm so annoyed with the whole coming back to say ILY. Tayshia clearly didn't want to see him and her tone when she said something like "What am I going to do about that?" should tell us that she isn't happy. I'd really hate to see him end up in the f2 and I'm still not sure that happens. I really don't think he's the right person to be TB after 2 attempted suicides. He really should never have come on a tv dating show, imo.

Zac: Their date was the only one that felt real to me. I did have my doubts about him because of his past but I believe that they could work it out if they're together. Everything seems so grown up with them and the only way I see true doubt coming up is possibly from her dad.

For once, I'm looking forward to the finale because I'm not completely sure what happens.  

@albean99 I'm not sure what happens with the peripheral stuff...does she take Ben back and does he meet the parents, does she send Ivan home early, who her father has issues with...but I'm pretty sure she ends up with Zac. Where they are now? TBD

I believe Ben does get to meet her parents. As I think the RC is cancelled and she just waits to do the dates with her parents with the 3 guys there then makes her decision at the end of the first hour on who she keeps as her F2. All speculation on my part.
