[@Thistoxiclove]

I’ve always wondered how not one contestant on these shows ever admitted “you know, I just wasn’t feeling it”. Like if any of these girls was the bachelorette would they really choose him over everyone? I mean yeah she sucks but I like the honesty here. Its refreshing lol

[@lalalili3798]

If that were true then she could have just left or not joined from the start. Its obviouss shes just doing it for airtime. Too bad shes too dumb to realize being bad guy in bachelor dun earn u much clout. Also she rob one spot off of potential interested girl.

True, but sometimes I wasn’t attracted to someone at first but I was after getting to know them

[@Thistoxiclove]

@@hushhhhh562 I wasn’t necessarily talking about just attraction but like a knowing. Like all the contestants are so certain they’re the one. My point is if they were in the role of the bachelorette, would they still be that sure about him when they have other options? Maybe but seems like the odds are lower. I’ve always thought about that.

It actually would have been cool if she had *politely and respectfully* said, I’m just not feeling a spark here, and decided to leave.

[@jareya]

Totally agree with you

[@fakeaccount704]

A lot of contestants don’t audition for a specific season, especially in this case because people didn’t even get to see Michelle’s season before Clayton’s started filming. Not saying this to justify her behavior by any means, but she probably didn’t audition for Clayton. She probably auditioned for no specific season

It's actually refreshing to see at least one girl not into the bachelor ! more realistic

[@bizwizconsultant]

I think this girl felt insecure when she compared herself to the other ladies and I can see why. She thought she would have been sent home night one so she decided to deflect her insecurities on Clayton.

[@CrystalReignVlogs]

good point.

[@eustaciariley9492]

Makes sense - but she knew what they would be like before arriving from years of the show. I feel sad that the only 'normal' sized woman there left early (and handled herself so poorly - especially after Victoria Larson who was also more normal sized was so whack).

[@melc8388]

She has no reason to be insecure She is fit still and has a normal size

[@dom7345]

They didn't know it was Clayton who was going to be the bachelor. Remember his season started filming while Michelle's was still airing. The cast doesn't always know who they're going to get that's why you here the contestants say sometimes "I'm glad it was you! Or I was so happy when I heard it was you! "

[@foxyloxy6670]

She got mad because he didn't pay her any attention. I'm sure it embarrassed her that he walked away with another woman.

Good for Claire, she has a choice too it’s not only up to whoever is the bachelor or bachelorette

@@glowrain756 no I couldn’t agree with you more! She could’ve been like”not my type” then walked herself out!

She was OK with him. She just felt it didn't go well and found a way, consciously or subconsciously, to avoid the rejection she was expecting.

[@TheHeroFENNEX]

Yeah but contestants literally come on the show because they’re interested in dating the bachelor/bachelorette. I thought Claire was funny and I liked her, but tbh another girl that actually liked Clayton could have had a good opportunity. That being said- Claire probably thought Clayton was right for her and then didn’t feel any spark, which I completely understand. The whole thing just felt a bit blown out of proportion. But at the end of the day, we’re all here for the drama, right??! 🌹

[@kparker905]

The way she looked at the pillow with his face on it and said “No” had me DYING!! It’s not like she even wanted to say no.. She wanted to say yes and it’s obvious that there’s nothing physically about him that’s repellant to her! She looked so resigned that she had to say no, lol

[@exnihilonihilfit6316]

I suspect it was a way to avoid the expected rejection...

[@sydneyalexandra8959]

Honestly although she was a little rude, at least she was honest! I know 50% of those girls probably didn’t feel a type of connection with him, she was just the only one that spoke up about it🤷🏾‍♀️

[@abigailsunn1464]

"Little rude" is an understatement. Not feeling a connection and admitting it is fine. She could've just left it at that and choose to leave, but instead she started saying that he sucked and all sorts of unnecessary stuff.

[@jareya]

Nothing "little" about her rudeness. She was harsh and unkind. There's a polite way to express that you don't feel a connection to someone.

[@Veromoi4]

Honest because she was intoxicated. As a recovering alcoholic I can tell you 100% drunk words are NOT sober thoughts. Many of us who have been down the dark path with alcohol know this. We wake up horrified at the things we said while under the influence because when we are sober we do not feel that way most every time! This girl was belligerent and rude and clearly slurring her words. I think her behavior was toxic and I hope She addresses her relationship with alcohol . I actually feel bad for her because you can clearly tell she’s way too drunk.

[@daniellap8939]

look if she gets a vibe that makes her uncomfortable and she realizes he is the opposite of her type, all the power to her for being able to just say it out loud and get off the show.

[@exnihilonihilfit6316]
