8 Expectations For The Upcoming Winter Romance On 'The Bachelor'

In This Article:

Move over New Year's, "The Bachelor" is all we have been waiting for and counting down the days since November. Most of Bachelor Nation knows Colton Underwood, this season's bachelor is famously known for being a virgin and his unsuccessful journey on "Bachelor in Paradise."

But what can we expect for season 23 of "The Bachelor"?

1. Drama Of Course

Drama is what makes "The Bachelor" special. Not only do you see women compete against one another but also have a range of feelings along the way. You may even say that some of the contestants behave like teenagers or children. Or to top it off, the bachelor may have chosen the wrong girl.

2. One That Always Causes Trouble

The Bachelor / Giphy

On every season of "The Bachelor," there is always one drama queen that stands out from the others and make themselves known to all in the house through gossip or even outrageous behavior. In case you haven't been paying attention, all of them get voted off for it. Let's not forget about Olivia and her Kankles.

3. More Scenic Locations

"The Bachelor" is notorious for the variety of filming locations in other countries including Thailand, Italy, and Croatia. Watching "The Bachelor" makes you feel as if you are simply vacationing in one of those countries from your living room couch.

4. The Tears

On the preview commercials for each season, the advertisement always has a girl crying. It shows how many feelings are unsettled and constantly fluctuating. The stress of many girls dating one guy and the fear of not getting chosen can get to the contestants.

5. Colton's Attractiveness

Colton is an attractive bachelor, unlike Arie on the past season of "The Bachelor." And did I mention he was also an NFL player? There were multiple handsome men who made it to the final four on the last season of "The Bachelorette" with Garrett, Blake, and of course Colton making it to hometown week.

6. More Diversity

The Bachelor / Giphy

In recent years, there has been controversy over the amount of racial diversity among contestants of "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette." In 2012, "The "Bachelor" franchise has long faced criticism for its overwhelmingly white casts and was the subject of a class-action lawsuit that cited racial discrimination in casting decisions." This season includes more diversity than previous seasons of "The Bachelor" with white and African-American women.

7. More Bikinis And Cocktail Parties

The Bachelor / Giphy

It's easy to make fun of women prancing around "The Bachelor" mansion in their bikinis, stroking their hair with one hand and alcohol in the other. Whether it is pure entertainment or just fun to watch, bikinis, pools and cocktail parties never get old.

8. The Colorful Dresses

Lastly, let's not forget the abundance of beautiful, colorful and variety of dresses the women wear. Seeing all the women dressed up for a nice event inspires viewers at home to be clean and put together as well.

Watching "The Bachelor" this season could inspire you to be in a relationship, realize you're not interested, or motivate you to get back out there. If you simply are over New Year's and the holidays, think about "The Bachelor," the upcoming winter romance.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

Friends

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
