I'm sure he probably is a good guy as long as 25 women aren't chasing him. I get the feeling Jason was a regular guy in high school and never received so much attention in his life. I would love to see a happy ending, marriage, etc. Yuck on the cheating part, oh I changed my mind. At this point, I really don't know what to think.

The next one will be that Jason and Chris Harrison run off together--that would be a "shocking" ending wouldn't it? So many people are ready to throw Jason under the bus and think he is a jerk etc. What happened to "innocent until proven guilty"? Let's see what happens before we pass judgement on him. So many people were excited to have him be the bachelor and now many of these people think he is a cheating jerk. I can't believe that after he was embarassed by Deanna on national TV, that he would intentionally want to do that to anyone else. And I really think that if anything scandelous--like the producers planning the outcome--were to get out NO ONE, not even the loyal watchers like me, would ever watch again. Too big a risk for ABC. Everyone would doubt the outcome of every "reality" show on TV. I just hope that whoever Jason winds up with, (hopefully its not Chris Harrison) the relationship actually works. It does get a bit old hearing how the "happy couple" breaks up a few months later. Personally, I think the first after the rose episode will be Jason proposing to the mystery lady with Ty. Then the second one could be them getting married. Possible? I like this scenario better than anything else I've read lately. Whatever happens I can definetly say I am really looking forward to the next few week's episodes. These rumors and speculations are getting out of control. The next one will be that Jason and Chris Harrison run off together–that would be a “shocking” ending wouldn’t it?

The rumors are bizarre and Chris Harrison's comments for the upcoming shows are even more bizarre. Just wait and watch and we will get the answers.

I'm publishing all the various rumors, posts, etc. so fans can decide for themselves. Personally, I can't believe he would actually dump Melissa on TV. That would make him look like a complete fool and a jerk. It's all rumor and speculation in the end. I would like to think Melissa was in on it, that way we know she isn't going to be totally crushed. The other alternative is someone took advantage of her heart and tosses her aside for the next girl. What we do know is that something weird definitely happened. Of course, when your dealing with peoples feelings, anything is possible. I understand your point Yin. I’m publishing all the various rumors, posts, etc. so fans can decide for themselves.

I find it very hard to believe that Melissa asked to leave after professing her love for Jason, only to return to a boyfriend she hadn't gone with for 3 years. Do you know this poster? Do you know he is credible? Do you have other credible sources backing up this theory ? I don't think so. So why publish what is probably rubbish about a young woman who has stolen America's heart? It doesn't make you look good, and I won't believe the stars confirmed this story! Of all the posts and speculations on the boards, I can’t believe you picked that one.

If she has a boyfriend she doesn't need to be the Bachelorette. My favorite theory is this: He had real chemistry with Melissa - he picks Melissa - then after the FRC finds out Molly is pregnant with his baby (from the tent date or the fantasy date) - and that is where all this "closed door" "freakish" ending stuff comes from. Chris Harrison indicated that Jason made a "gutsy" decision ... which would make sense...
