FINALE: The Final Rose

This is it... after weeks of watching Chad eat deli meats, Evan poke The Chad Bear, Derek bawl in the limo and like, Luke say "like" a whole lot, it's finally time for JJ to make her decision.  

Will she pick the guy with the great hair and strong jaw line or the guy with the great hair and strong jaw line?  It's very hard to say - I can barely tell who's who!
                                              
First, the guys get to meet JJ's mom, dad and scary brothers, who sadly, weren't scary at all this time around.  They're just really, really, really attached to her.

                                          
JJ tells her family about being in love with both guys and really lays it on thick.
Jordan's meeting goes well, he brings hats - that's fun - and doesn't ask for her hand in marriage.
                               
                                         

Robby meets the family and blows them away with all his love - AND asks JJ's mom AND dad for her hand in marriage.  Scores huge points with the family ... after hearing this JJ leans more towards Jordan and disappoints the fam.
                                  

This is when I knew she would pick that guy with the great hair and jaw line.  I called it.

The guys go on to pick out rings...
                                    
JJ cries over her torn gut...

                                  

In the end JJ decides to crush Robby's heart into a million pieces.  But first, she goes on a final date with each guy.  On her date with Robby he talks about the future and burning the dinner.  

On her date with Jordan she admits she's not sure he's ready to be engaged.  He somehow puts her mind at ease by saying he'll prove to her he's ready.
                                  

JoJo worries about hurting Robby... 

                                          

And things got slightly awkward after The Final Rose... 

                                     

And then things got real when Jordan proposed and they lived happily ever after.  Or did they...  (awkward hug time)

                                     
So, to recap, Robby was the smart choice but JJ fell for Jordan.  He proposed, got down on one knee even - which is shocking because that was the tightest skinny suit I've ever seen!

                                                
JJ says she's happy but I kept feeling slightly awkward about this "happy" union the entire time I was watching.  It didn't feel like she was all in.  

At the After The Final Rose, JJ talked about how difficult it's been to have everyone against their relationship - tabloids printing he's a fraud.  Hmm... 

She certainly didn't scream IN LOVE during the episode.  Maybe she was being choked by her dress?
                           
Jordan says he's moving to Dallas to be with her immediately.  I hope the best for these two, but I'm not holding my breath for an ABC televised wedding any time soon.

Time will tell.

Ok peeps, things are gonna get good now!!!  Time for BACHELOR IN PARADISE!  Bring on the crazies!!!  I'm am really looking forward to this!

Until then... I'm going to take a moment to say my goodbyes.
