Sydney ”priding herself on being honest” while the entire show lied and made Maria look like the bad guy for no good reason

I agree. She doesn't take anybody else's nonsense and stands up for herself. I love that about her, but she's also humble enough to apologize and be kind to the other women even though they were terrible to her.

Wow. If Maria isn't the next bachelorette then the producers are insane. Truly the perfect woman and person. Never have I seen such grace in the franchise. She's on top and doesn't owe the other girls anything but she chose to use her power for good.

[@eeg122]

Love how Maria hugged the 2 ladies at the end. Apologizing & forgiving are very powerful. Too bad Maria isn't the Bachelorette for the following season. I heard through the grapevine that she had certain expectations that the producers were not willing to give her. Oh well. I think it's for the best for her.

[@tima.478]

Maria is too much of a "Boss Bytch" for Joey, and probably for most guys. Take note of the final 3 girls that Joey selected. They all have a calm, relaxed, "let my man be a man" vibe to them. Maria wants to drive the bus, ALL day, every day. Guys, we aren't looking for that. And not to be confused with being strong because that's not what I'm talking about. We love strength in our women and it's not that we're trying to be your boss, but we don't like headstrong and confrontational and I think Joey was getting that vibe from Maria!

[@Feliciathegoat676]

@@tima.478 ummmm speak for yourself. You're not my dream man so why would I cater my personality to be appealing to you. Notice how you are trying to give advice to women to litteraly change who they are just to be appealing to the average man....we women are worth so much more than simply being likeable to the average guy. How about advising everyone to be their authentic selves instead of changing who they are? When you are your most authentic self, you are going to attract the people who are right for you. And I assure you a woman like Maria would never be interested in a "normal" man like you, who obvioulsy expects women to take a backseat to men and their goals, and who prefers women to be submissive and soft.
