Why Luke Pell Should Have Been "The Bachelor"

The most dramatic Bachelor pick in history.

Why Luke Pell Should Have Been "The Bachelor"

It's been about a month since Jojo's season of "The Bachelorette" ended with her choosing Jordan. Although most viewers were happy with her choice--because let's be honest, Jordan is a beautiful man--everyone was disappointed when she sent home fan favorite Luke Pell. He was the epitome of the perfect man; handsome and a gentleman. Personally, sending Luke home was the worse mistake Jojo made. But sending him home was also a blessing because that meant he had a chance at becoming the next "Bachelor" and who didn't want to see Luke on their TV every Monday again?

But on August 30, Chris Harrison broke "Bachelor" nation's hearts when he named Nick Viall as the next Bachelor. This will be Nick's fourth try on a "Bachelor" franchise show and if the first three times didn't work, maybe he need to try another process. Don't get me wrong, Nick is a nice guy and I'm still going to watch but I was shocked that Luke wasn't picked, and so was most of Twitter.

Luke was perfect for "The Bachelor" because:

He is genuine.

We all have to admit it, the Bachelor franchise has had some bad "Bachelors" (shall we mention Juan Pablo?), But Luke never acted full of himself or even seemed like he knew how perfect he was. He treated Jojo with nothing but respect and was never involved in the drama through out the season.

He is a veteran.

I have nothing but respect for our veterans and the fact that Luke is a veteran makes America love him even more.

He is a southern gentleman.

Luke was so respectful of Jojo. He even surprised her with that super cute candlelight walk to a heart made of roses at sunset. Like who would pass up a man who does little things like that? He wears his heart on his sleeve and would have been great to watch date 26 women.

He has no scandals.

A lot of "Bachelor" guys have had questionable pasts and although Nick hasn't had a scandal, he was written about in Andi's book. She told stories depicting him as very awkward and he called Andi out on national TV for having sex with him which was not cool. Plus how he came onto Kaitlyn's season was a little annoying.

It just made sense.

The next "Bachelor" or "Bachelorette" is always either the third or fourth runner up. That would have been either Luke Pell or Chase McNary (both great choices. 10 out of 10, honestly). So when Nick was announced it was really a curve ball. Jojo had amazing men on her show to choose from and one of them really deserved to find love, unlike Nick who has had 3 previous chances.

Clearly Luke was the better option, Chris Harrison. But that's okay, that just means he'll stay single and maybe I have a chance. Hey Luke, give me a call.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
