I have friends that see him out at "those" bars in Austin often, he actually likes the "Oaklawn" section of Dallas for privacy!

I didnt really watch "The Bachelor", I think I remember catching one or two episodes but I find it intriguing how we can judge and share opinions of ones decisions without truly knowing the person. If Brad is seeking eternity with his partner and decides that the propaganda of public television, which has engaged many disastrous ideologies surrounding the definition of relationships, is not going to define his character, I applaud him.

He states he is searching for a best friend, a life-long partner and someone to fall madly in love with", well the truth is all of these things are earned and are a compilation of just one word, TRUST!

In order to have a best friend you have to "earn" trust in knowing that you will protect them and they you, allow them to be independent of you and not dependent on you, that you can speak your most hidden thoughts without fear, and you are and can be the same person in their presence that you are in their absence.

Trust is simply a deposit of actions.

A life long partner emerges the moment the mind, heart and body reach a unified epiphany through that sudden intuitive perception... Trust!

Clearly this is a rarity, a gift, something that cannot be earned in a couple months and intrusiveness.

Give the guy a break. I mean after all at least Brad was completely honest in the end. And besides, he is HOT HOT HOT!!! I could care less that he decided not to choose either one of them!

Brad was my facorite "The Bachelor" cuz ur so hottie hottie hottie but was feelin' bad that you dumped 2 women already that heartbroken enough since I figured out that you, Brad and Deanna would be perfect match couple...sighs!!!
Wish you the best of luck in the future...I love you any way cuz ur still so hottie anyway...Wink :-)

Hello Brad, how are you doing?I just stop by this forum, casually and did not resist to comment, so in my honest opinion i think that you should search for your soulmate in other way. I understand the idea of joing on this program,everyone needs love, no matter how or wherever, but i don't advice nobody to search a special half one by this condition,your intentions are good, pure and honest but i don't think so that some, maybe half of those girls were on the same emotional level,some human minds and hearths are just focus on get more than give back, so your final decision was the best. All this speculation about your sexuality are wortless and as you know you do not have to prove anything to anyone. Anyway ,i wish you a very good look futurely and try to find your true love in a old fashion way,maybe it work;)

greetings from norway

i really don't see anything wrong with brad..i know the feeling of searching for the right one..maybe he is not really into those women,so jen and de ann...move one!

My ALL-TIME FAVORITE was Byron. I personally love the rugged-ness in a man, besides the fact that I grew up fishing and camping & I do appreciate those things. And then there's always the fact that he is soooo handsome !

Come on everybody ... This is "reality" TV!!!!! Does anybody think that maybe the producers from the "Bachelor" show has put him up to this? The producers are in charge of what airs and past participants have even said that the show just showed the "worst" of people. I also believe that the producers tell the bachelor and bachelorettes to do certain things. I think that the show would be boring if there wasn't drama in it. Give the guy a break. They (both the girls and guys) all know what they are getting into when they sign up for the show.

I thought he was courageous in standing up in the end and not choosing either of them because they just weren't "THE ONE". How many divorces are necessary for people to realize that they're just not with THE ONE? Better safe than sorry. Hopefully those girls will get over it and move on because they, like everyone else in this world, deserve to be loved & cherished by someone. He's just not that person for them. I hope he does find that special someone as well.

he deffinatly lead DeAnna on teh most, that was such a bad move

what an asssss

I think that he lead them both on. I think that even though he wasnt in love with the girls, he could have given it a chance with one of them. Keep dating them and see where it went. He didnt have to propose.

He needs to just admit it that he used the show to be able to make himself known and all the while have 25? woman at his disposal to make out with and watch them all pine over him knowing he had no intention of choosing any of them. It was an 'added bonus.'In a way, shows like this make both sides look desperate and pathetic. I mean, who really expects to find 'marriage type love' in a setting like that? He knew it wasnt possible for him so he played along and got what he wanted out of it...more media attention for doing something different. Surely that was his game plan all along.

Seriously, how do you expect a guy to know who his soulmate is after 2 months of dating? And he spends a very small amount of time with each girl individually, so how well could he possibly really know these people? No wonder he didn't want to marry either one of them. That makes him pretty level-headed if you ask me. These girls are so ridiculous - sobbing and "falling in love" after 3 or 4 episodes. It's so pathetic. Plus, most of the girls are in it for their 15 minutes of fame. It's hard to take this show seriously.

Hot, hot, hot - this guy is beautiful!
I did watch the show and thought that he actually made a smart decision. I never saw what was so great about DeAnna - she seemed like a total beyotch.
Would LOVE to see another Bachelor season with him. Yum... easy on the eyes!!
