Goodness, where to even start. . . I haven't watched it all yet, just bits and pieces. I saw the family visits and saw the dumping and proposal, then saw the end of ATFR.
Chantal: I did feel sorry for her. At the beginning of all of this, I thought she was going to be the one, I thought she was the most suited.
Emily: I am glad he picked her because he did really seem to be in love with her, but reality has set in. As much as he thinks he is ready for an instant family, she was right on with all of her concerns and questions. Moving to Austin could be a great fresh start for her, but it would be such a change.
The sad reality of the show is that he was dating so many women at the same time. And I agree with Emily about her insecurities through all of it. How could she not have questions after watching him begging Ashely H. to trust what they had, him having all of that sexual chemisty with Michelle, him talking about being himself so much with Chantal and even taking her as far as he did.
We saw and Brad saw such a graceful, mature Emily during the show. (Well, that's what we saw through the editing.) We saw and Brad saw all of Chantal's reactions to being in that situation. I remember Emily saying something about wanting it to be over a few weeks ago. I don't know how much I would have been able to sit through every Monday night.
There is also a big age difference between the two of them. I've been in that same age difference. I can relate.
Emily only saw Brad through the six-to-eight weeks of blissful Brad and is now getting the full Brad.
Production Gufus:
1. The Train song. Really? Really? Isn't that the same song performed by Train during Brad's date with Jackie? Tacky, tacky, tacky.
2. Emily's story again. Really? Brad wouldn't have told him family any of that?
