One train wreck I couldn't take my eyes off of

Holy shit, this show lived up to every ridiculous expectation I had.
So. So. Wrong. And yet, so right.
I was surprisingly touched sometimes by their vulnerable honesty.
Like, Tayler, who shocked us all; especially at the end.
Between her and Jodi, it was always a tear-jerker.
I also liked the 'reality' of the reality show in the season finale where they revealed what had happened to every woman after the show, and how no one really had a truly happy ending. It was actually kind of real.
I love that this show was my guilty pleasure for the past two months and that I actually kind of learned something, even though sometimes the whole thing reminded me of some kind of sick religious retreat. Hm.
Basically, the underlying theme of the show turned out to be:
you have to learn to love yourself first before you can love someone else fully

Amazing.
Oh VH1, you are just inappropriately divine.

On a side note, I have booked two flights for great prices . . . but now I actually have to stop shopping mindlessly and eating out for a red hot minute so that I can actually enjoy these trips:
End of May: San Francisco & Los Angeles
Fourth of July: Chicago

And on that bright note, I must hurry up and do the dishes before bed.
