She had every opportunity to tell him, and she chose not to, that says she's aware it would change his mind. Or at least she thought it would. Point being, the producers would've wanted her to stand up there and say that shes a virgin with no crazy sex stories.

      I feel so bad. Obviously her actions spurred some of that on. But being called a pill popper for prescription Adderall is just cruel and gross. She likely has ADHD which makes this show even more disregulating than for neurotypical contestants.
      Also being labeled a drunk for drinking on the show that is known for shoving drinks at you 24/7, is dumb. All around I'm glad she realized her faults, fought back against the addiction rumors, and is doing well

      @@lizzyblitz07 100% also this all comes from people she was supposed to live with for a period of time. Everytime Peter wouldn't be here she'd have to deal with how she couldn't trust anyone in the house and knowing she'd be judged for every single action that she'd take. Which is even more stressfull considering she knows there's cameras on her all the time, and she could be badly edited at any moments and judged to hell and back by everyone at home AS WELL.
      It's such a terrifying scenario.

    My favorite tidbit of Pilot Pete lore is that he and his mom were roommates with Victoria Justice and her mom when he was a child actor. So much of his relationship with his mom makes sense when you realize that she was his momanager during his failed child actor era. I think Victoria Justice said that Pete and his mom shared a room when they all lived together?

    I'm really glad you called out the difference between Luke and Maddie's requests. I remember people making the comparison when it aired but it wasn't the same at all! Both are doomed for failure but Maddie just said "Hey, I like where we're headed but this is my boundary if I'm going to keep going" whereas Luke spent the entire season being really difficult to deal with and then acted like she was a horrible person if she didn't follow his rule. There's a difference between "This is just how I feel" and "I have decided you will be my wife so you must follow all my rules"

    • @angeLxLaw
      @angeLxLaw 8 місяців тому +44

      not sure if anyone else has seen but Maddie actually went on a podcast and explained that she didn't even sign up for the bachelor, her friends signed her up after she had a rough break up to get her back into dating, and even then she wasn't truly set on the idea but gave it a try after discussing with her family. and with her not giving Peter straight answers or explanations, i imagine she also had a hard time figuring out what she could or couldn't say on the spot whenever they're filming because she's scared the editors will take her words out of context or even frame her in a way that was negative to the audience, especially being the "abstaining christian girl" 🥲🥲

    Ok tea: I'm South African and we got our first Bachelor in 2019. The engagement flopped immediately. Later, I matched with the guy on Tinder, but just laughed it off assuming it was a catfish. Next thing I get a DM and follow request from his verified Instagram profile. So we chatted over WhatsApp for like a week. He quickly became super forward, offering to fly me to Cape Town where he lived, asking if he can fly to my hometown, and STAY WITH ME. I was so weirded out that I ghosted him. Then roughly a year ago, the news reported he was homeless, and eventually taken to rehab. Smh

      Breaking: sometimes people behave differently in different situations. More at 11!
      In all seriousness, it drives me nuts when people obsess over whether people they don't know are "fake" or not, as if having a persona were inherently sinister and as if there weren't a massive gray area between "behaving the exact same way all the time with no filter" and "pretending to be someone you're not in order to trick people" (a gray area that most of our social interactions exist in, might I add). Whether it's code-switching, masking, customer service voice, or just not cursing in front of your boss, modifying the way you speak around different people is a ubiquitous experience! Even if you're neurotypical and have never been consciously aware of it (which I find hard to believe tbh, surely everyone has said something that provoked a negative reaction and noticed), you're still doing it, just more intuitively.

The thing is, it's beaten into you by coaches and boards that you always have to be perfect, constantly smile, and be prepared for any question. Texas is the single most competitive state in the country, so I can't imagine the training she underwent and the pressure to be flawless she was under. I really feel for her because everything was stacked against her here.
