Why would Peter be the next Bachelor when he doesn't want to propose to someone he loves. He'd be in the same predicament if he was the next Bachelor, he doesn't want to make a mistake and it will take time for him to be truly committed.

Not all bachelors propose at the end. It isn't a requirement.

Agree. 100%.

I agree. She is articulate & can clearly speak through her tears/sadness to have a conversation. Must be the lawyer in her.

I love how self aware Rachel was. She knew she didn't want to repeat her past relationship failures by dating guys with no long-term future.

That's not the issue.

Some didn't propose because in the end it was not the person for them but Peter made different statements.

The other ones that didn't propose said they were looking for marriage and ready to propose at the end but the girl wasn't the one to propose to.

And just to add to that, there is no requirement, and never has there been a requirement, to propose at the end. It was only Rachel's personal requirement in this particular situation. Not every bachelor/bachelorette absolutely requires it. "Prefer"it? yes, but it has not been a firm personal requirement like Rachel. (at least so far anyway )

Saw an interview with Rachel and Bryan this morning and she was much more articulate in stating that she chose Bryan because of love, nothing more.

Well as a viewer, it doesn't matter to me whether there's a proposal since most of these couples split up anyway. Maybe more of them would stay together if they didn't feel pressure to get engaged immediately.

I haven't watched every episode, but I've seen a few of Rachel and Bryan's interviews. Bryan seems like a good man, but only time will tell.


One thing is for certain, he's very attractive.
