Arie Luyendyk Jr. Was The Worst Bachelor Ever And Is Easily One Of The Most Hated Men In America

ABC's, "The Bachelor," has been running for 22 seasons and has seen it's fair share of horrible moments and people. However, out of all the contestant and bachelor's we have seen over the past sixteen years, none of them have been quite as horrible as the bachelor for season 22, Arie Luyendyk Jr (Juan Pablo could be worse, but it's a toss-up). Warning: there are major spoilers ahead.

1. He can’t hold a conversation so he just kisses everyone

Seriously, have you seen anyone blander? Arie could get through the initial conversation like asking where they’re from, what they do for a living, and past relationship history. After that, if a woman said anything remotely interesting he says something along the lines of “I love that.” and then nods a lot. Then he proceeds to just make out with them because the man takes any lull in the conversation as an invitation to suck a woman’s face off.

2. He clearly likes his women to be MUCH younger than him

There have been reports the Arie used to go to sorority parties and displayed such horrible behavior involving eighteen-year-old girls when he was thirty that Jef Holm, the season eight winner of the Bachelorette, has called him disgusting. Also, notice how every contestant in the final five was under the age of 30? Yeah, not a coincidence.

3. His reaction to Jacqueline's career ambitions was gross

Jacqueline, easily one of the smartest "Bachelor" contestants ever, wanted to pursue a Ph.D. in chemical psychology which requires six more years of school after college. Arie expressed that he wanted a family right away and saw her schooling as an obstacle to his needs. However, any man should know at this point that you can have a career and raise children…but that probably isn’t the stay-at-home mom narrative that Arie would most likely enjoy.

4. He told THREE women he loved them

Arie drops the L-word more during this season than I probably have in my entire life. First, he said it to Kendall who he promptly eliminated, then to Lauren as he was dumping her, and then to Becca. Arie is more like a robot regurgitating a phrase than an actual human being.

5. That finale…

MAJOR SPOILER ALERT. Arie ends up giving the final rose to Becca Kufrin and proposing to her. Two months later, he changes his mind and decides he actually wants to propose to runner-up Lauren B. Instead of quietly ending the engagement like every other bachelor has, he filmed the breakup and the HOUR LONG UNEDITED FOOTAGE was aired of her crying, telling him to leave and him pretty much blindsiding her. H

e stayed around needing reassurance and generally trying to get the “It’s okay, I don’t hate you!” from Becca. Overall, he handled the whole thing horribly solidifying him as one of the most hated men in America.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
