Can we start forgiving Jed and Luke P?

With Bachelor/ette contestants I always judge them based on whether i personally would want to date or befriend them. With Jed, while what he did was shitty and the hate was deserved, i think i could manage to be friends with him if his personality on the show is consistent with how he is in real life.

Luke P on the other hand is someone i could never be friends with. Even at his best he was annoying and at his worst he is the most hate-able person I’ve ever witnessed. That being said, I would love if he came on BIP. Hannah B’s cast really came together in unity against a common enemy and the friendships that formed amongst those men was special. Luke P kept us watching each week, waiting to see if he could actually be the worst person ever. Each week he failed to disappoint.

Leo and Lincoln are scum to me. Before the allegations, I somewhat liked Leo until BIP, but I could not stand Lincoln. Lincoln came off to me as the guy who plays it sweet in the beginning of a relationship then once he loops you in he becomes abusive and controlling.

I went to school with Josh Murray. Didn’t know him well but had mutual friends and never heard anything bad or good about him. He and Luke P are similar to me with Josh just having more forethought to control his aggressiveness when eyes are on him.

Side note-Josh’s brother Aaron is one of the most courteous people i knew on the UGA football team. His crew of friends on the team were all driven guys who knew their actions represented more than just themselves. Aaron could not have been more opposite to Josh and still to this day I’ve yet to hear a bad word about Aaron.
