"I think the one thing that really showed me, and the kind of the final closure for me more than anything was to see them happy together. The connection that they have and what I saw on the show when I was there filming, it was absolutely love and a look that she gave him that she couldn't live without. And she never gave that to me. And I need to have that in my life. I think we all deserve to have in our life, and it's not a connection that we ever had, or a look that she ever gave me." *** DATING TIP: The one thing that I think that caught me is that I think no matter who we are in the world, we’ve all got doubts and I don’t care if you are Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods, but the one thing that this taught me is it’s OK to completely be yourself. And if you’re yourself and you’re true to yourself, things really will be OK.ABC/Adam Larkey - Wednesday, July, 9, 2008, 9:9 PM

"She allowed us to see what she wanted us to see. One of the things that I got onto her about was that she started getting more and more closed off as the season went along. I'd given her kind of a hard time about that, especially with the Men Tell All. And, I think that initially I thought that this could be the one and that's the reason why I allowed myself to feel the things that I did and to have the discussions that we did, and things progress the way they did. But after watching it, seeing both sides of the coin, you see what you want to see. In that situation I very much read into DeAnna things that weren't there, unfortunately. *** DATING TIP: The dating world in real life is so much different. It's a different universe to dating on television. I don't know how much really crosses over. But I can tell you that I've always been really good at showing someone attention and being respectful, and those sorts of things. What I've learned is just be yourself.

"She and I suffered from a severe case of miscommunication. As much as she wanted me to open up and say I’m ready for marriage, I never heard her say those things directed to me. The more time we spent together, the easier it would have been to open up. We were moving along in that direction, but just not with the speed that she wanted it to happen." *** DATING TIP: Be true to yourself because at the end of the day whoever you date, you've got to find someone that likes you for who you are. Life is short, be yourself, no matter what the circumstances. Friday, June, 27, 2008, 5:27 AM

"I really didn't see a lot of interest from her throughout the experience. And she had kept telling me just to kind of hang on and hang in there. I really didn't think that I had very good chemistry with DeAnna. Even if we had spent a day and a half trapped in an elevator together talking the whole time I really just don't think a romantic connection would have happened. I felt like I was kind of a back-up. I was one of the last guys she kind of felt safe with. *** DATING TIP: Don't shave your head. That'd be my number one piece of advice. Get a really good haircut! Friday, June, 27, 2008, 5:27 AM

"I just could tell that something was a little off. And then, I pretty much knew right there that, she wasn't having the feelings about me that she felt she needed to keep me on the show. I do respect the fact that if she didn't see anything there between us she didn't want to keep me around. And I have no bad feelings about that or anything. She was being honest. I appreciate that. And I respect her for going back and going through this process again." *** DATING TIP: Well, number one: don't bring someone else on your date. You know, don't have a two-on-one situation I think would be the first thing I'd say. Just be yourself. Don't try to be someone you're not no matter what situation you're in.Friday, June, 27, 2008, 5:27 AM

"There really wasn't that much of a connection there on both our parts. You can't really describe how to come up with romantic chemistry. You know, you can pretty much go out there, you show her who you are. She shows you who she is and if it clicks, it clicks. If it doesn't, it doesn't. And, you know, that's kind of the idea of the show. *** DATING TIP: Be careful who you bring home to meet the folks. Recently my relationships haven't come to meet my parents because it's such a huge thing to me, to meet my family. And I don't want my family to get attached to someone that isn't going to be around five years from now.Friday, June, 27, 2008, 5:27 AM

"I think DeAnna and I just didn’t have that spark needed to continue. Now, do I feel as though I deserved, maybe, to go beyond, the top 12? Yes, I do. I felt that I laid my cards out. And you saw on the second episode, I said, “Hey, she knows me at this point better than anybody else. If she doesn’t give me a rose, I’m not going to get one at all.” And I truly felt that because I let her know who I was. ***DATING TIP: I think I wear my heart on my sleeve and I'm most open with my faith. It was foremost in my important relationships, and I wasn’t afraid to admit that and make it evident from day one. Be honest!Friday, June, 27, 2008, 5:27 AM
