This show is so unreal, and she is love them all! Love does not work that way. At least Trista made it work, and did pick a choice for her!

It goes back to her just being "needy". She loves them all and wants them all. Did you see how she was getting all tongue tied and crying looking at Reid. It's like she wanted him to beg her back or something.

One thing I thought through this entire Jillian show was that someone needs to get her into a treatment program. That girl has a serious drinking problem. And I don't say that for effect. I mean that seriously. It shows in her affect even when she isn't sitting with a glass in her hand.

I agree and I also believe that she is bipolar(probably undiagnosed).

What I find really hard to believe is that there were no reservations(that we know of) about her doing the show. Considering her (self admitted during the Jason season) of a family history of mental illness along with her own displays of mental lapses, I would have thought that her family would have tried to discourage her from doing the show.

Her mental anguish and manic depressive mood swings/indecisiveness were difficult to watch last night. I think that she will need a serious intervention after all of the attention and drama has died down.

The ATR show tonight?

Well Reid sat there looking ready to vault off the coach, constantly looking at the host "when is this going to end", with a "i have nothing really to say" attitude.

Kipton also looked devastated. Yeah right.

I think her and Ed make a great couple.

Neither Kiptyn or Reid looked like they wanted to be there last night. Reid was especially skittish and uncomfortable.

I have to say that even if Ed wasn't my first choice for her, they do seem absolutely thrilled with each other and very happy and secure in their relationship. I hope it works out for them, but I still think that you cannot truly fall in love with someone enough to commit to spend the rest of your life with them after a few short weeks. It may be a reality show, but it just ISN'T realistic!

My thoughts exactly. Though I think Ed is a bit of a dork (and certainly a Fashion Victim, as has been noted by many )...I agree that at least on the final show they seemed over-the-top giddy about each other. (Jillian's comment "we can't get enough bedroom!" was TMI for me, though!)
But I also agree that now that they're in the Real World they will see for sure what they have, or don't. I do understand how these contestants can convince themselves that their "love" is real in these fantastical circumstances on the show. Who _wouldn't be swept away by these exotic locales and little adventures (private helicopter rides, rooftop-with-fab-view dining, beach picnics, waterfall pond swimming, etc.) they are privy to?

Minor observation: anyone else embarrassed last night for the seemingly 15-year-old at the microphone who asked Reid for a date??

I give it 6 months...tops!

I think that Ed (who may be gay or bi) will get tired of Jillian's neediness, over-the-top emotional displays and overly-hyper antics very soon....especially since they will be living together.

Could someone please give her meds!

For the most part, I agree but I was in love with my wife and I knew I was going to marry her after only a month together. On top of that, it was a long distance relationship and I only saw her on weekends. So, basically after only 4 weekends together I had no doubt she was who I was going to marry.

So, I woudnt call it unrealistic but I dont think that happens often for people like it seems to happen every single season of this show.

Has there ever been a season of this show where everyone was drinking on pretty much every date?

I think we all know that most of these dates are unrealistic and many of these people probably behave differently than they do in real life.

She may have a drinking problem or it just may be the environment the show creates.

You also have to consider that you only see a few minutes of a date that last several hours. It is really hard to judge what really goes on.
