I know a lot of people from friends to my clients which are designers that will not watch this season or who know girls that applied for the show and are withdrawing now since it is Colton. I hate saying anything negative about people, but I will say this with only pure honesty, nobody wants their daughter or leading man on tv to be emotionally unstable and without a real job. He is very screwed up mentally in many ways and more importantly, he knew all along Tia wasn’t for him and he played her on Paradise. Jason was the top pick and then Blake thereafter. Jason has the looks, personality and a great job to support a family! That’s what parents want for their daughters. I won’t watch this season.

I agree. I am so disappointed that he has been chosen and after all that happened with Tia (and Raven). He’s young and commitment-inexperienced (because I personally don’t think being a virgin is a huge deal) so how can he use this platform to make the greatest commitment of his life? He won’t. It’s a mistake. I feel bad for him and all of the girls.
