Ladies, gentleman, are we really this desperate? Are we going to go on live TV to date 26 guys, or date a girl along with 25 other dudes? Yes, yes we are.

"The Bachelorette" is now in full swing, and season 12 has been full of love, hope, and violent stalkers. An avid fan of the show, I was waiting with bated breath for a season overflowing with tragic back stories, blossoming romance, and some of the most dramatic rose ceremonies... Ever.

I must say, I have not been disappointed. Throughout the years, I've noticed a few trends in our beloved Bachelors and Bachelorettes. Here is my list of top five things said on "The Bachelor"/"Bachelorette."

1. "I feel like I've really put myself out there."

Yes, you have. You've gone on live tv, made it clear you want to marry this person eventually, and literally spilled your life story to the world. Oh yeah. You've put yourself way out there.

2. "I'm here for the right reasons."

Ah, yes. The notorious "right reasons." But, really, who can say what's right and wrong here? What's right for one person may not be for another. Still, I'm pretty sure we can all agree that going on the show for 15 minutes of fame may not be on the right track.

3. "I can really see a future with him/her."

Well golly, I hope so. You have left behind your family, job, and entire life just to meet this person. I certainly think you should see some kind of potential.

4. "I can feel myself falling for you."

Well, you've been on dates most people only dream of, you spend almost all day talking only to each other, and everything you do is televised, probably leaving you a little dazzled in general.

5. "He/she and I have a real connection. It's different from everyone else."

Wow that is so weird because that other guy also just said that! Funny how that works.

And there you have it! At the end of the day, we do love our bachelors and bachelorettes, along with all their cliched phrases.
