Unhappy So ~ Did Ya Hear??????

Shayne Lamas and Matt (the bachelor) broke their engagement, and she won't give back the ring! He wants to auction it off for chairty, and she wants to keep it in a glass box. She did say he can come see it whenever he wants!!

Okay, I give up. Who are these people?

FYI, I think the law is against whats-her-name. Engagement rings are not usually considered gifts.

Oh, okay. Reality TV.

No, I never watched either The Bachelor or The Bachelorette.

Confession time: I never watched this show either.

PS: Why not auction it off for charity?

And by the look of the responses, you and Charlie aren't the only ones, 44! He wants to auction it off, she apparently wants to keep it. She's young, and appears to live in "wonderland."

Elaine,

Must be nice to live in wonderland. Maybe I should write about it instead of all the reality-type thing I've been doing. Would be a challenge.

I haven't watched The Bachelor since the season with Andrew Firestone. That one was pretty juicy. As a side note, shortly after that season ended (and he picked Jen) I saw the runner-up Kirsten something-or-other at LAX airport. She was in front of me in line to get a smoothie. I only recognized her because the show had just ended. I'm sure if I saw her today, I wouldn't notice.

I don't know Charlie. I think it depends on who broke up with whom. Did you hear about the woman who became engaged, quit her job, and then moved to her fiancee's city (out of state, of course)? The man broke the engagement and she sued him for it. She won too.

Cool Re: So ~ Did Ya Hear??????

That's why every time this show ends, I say I'll never watch it again. It never works-I've seen almost all of them. I hate to admit that I did think Shayne was the pick-too bad.

Thanks much-I've been logging on for some time. I've learned more about Aruba on these pages I can't wait to get back and try some new restaurants and visit some happy hours. Thanks to you all.

I'm a bit partial, but this is one of the best boards, and nicest people around.

Just jump into the conversation or ask any question because somebody will know the answer...

I see you're on Aruba week 6.. that's one of my weeks, too!!

We are week 6 and if it ever gets finished, we'll be at the new Phoenix. I never thought we'd do this, but we keep coming back to Aruba no matter where we travel.
Maybe we can meet in February-can't come fast enough.

I agree! But, the time does fly. And, yes ~ it would be nice meeting. We'll make plans when the time draws near..
