3 Times Bachelor Nation Has Failed Becca Kufrin
Becca Kufrin

The reality series "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette" have captured hearts across the globes with the whirlwind of romance it provides its viewers. Bachelor nation has been following the love lives of seemingly perfect young adults for over 20 years now, and it just keeps getting more dramatic. The latest season of "The Bachelor" starred Arie Luyendyk Jr. whose journey ended in mayhem. At first, he proposed to our beloved Bachelorette Becca K., but then quickly changed his mind to end up with runner-up Lauren B. This drastic change in Arie's mind was one that made bachelor history and lit up the tabloids. Everyone felt heartbroken for Becca and wanted to see her fall in love again. ABC of course chose Becca to be the next Bachelorette with her already roaring fan base, but with that great opportunity for her came with a lot of jabs to the heart. Here are three times Bachelor Nation failed the beautiful, smart, and funny Becca Kufrin.

Publicizing her break up with Arie

California Scoop

Going through a break up, especially after an engagement, is hard enough there was no need to put it all over television. Of course it received great ratings and the die hard bachelor fans wanted to see how it all unfolded, but it was an entire TWO HOUR airing. The cameras wouldn't leave Becca alone, and glorified Arie by giving him more air time than he clearly deserved. What he did to her was traumatic and horrifying and publicizing that for the world to see was just wrong. Becca is a obviously a strong and independent woman and embarrassing her in the way that episode did not give her the proper respect. Bachelor Nation gets extremely invested into who the star of the season chooses and feels that they have a right to see every detail of their relationship, even the bad parts, but the truth is they simply do not. The relationship is between those two people and should've been treated as such with Arie and Becca.

Allowing Arie to propose to Lauren on "After the Final Rose"

Lets Face It TV

Umm, what?! This episode was supposed to be all about celebrating the new journey the Bachelorette is about to embark on, not rubbing her ex's new fiancé in her face. This was so uncomfortable to watch for viewers let alone Becca herself. Sure, she was the bigger person and didn't have much to say about it but she deserved better Bachelor Nation plain and simple. Once again Becca was left embarrassed and Arie was left with more airtime. This scumbag PROPOSED to her then just thought it was okay to change his mind. NEWS FLASH! It wasn't okay then, it's not okay now, and it will NEVER be okay. so please, for the love of all that is holy, give Becca a break and let her live without the reminder of Arie for five seconds Bachelor Nation.

Continuously bringing up Arie in her season

Becca Kufrin

It is only two episodes into Becca's season and Arie has been brought up over seven times which is absolutely ridiculous Bachelor Nation. A whole dang date was centered around him and their break up, like come on people get it together. How is she ever supposed to move on when she has Arie Luyendyk Jr. staring down her throat. Replaying her break up at the beginning of the first episode was unnecessary, we all know what happened so just give it rest and STOP giving Arie airtime when it is not his time to shine. Becca can get rating all by herself, she's incredible in every single way, so how about you just give her a chance to fall in love with someone who isn't a lying dirtbag and leave her ex out of it? Becca, you are your own human and you know exactly what you want so we're all going to take a step back and let YOU do the damn thing!

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.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
