I think he likes Faith -- I do too.

But, the way he was interacting with Teresa (??) (the one with the birthday cupcake) -- I think she's the winner. She has a huge smile and I think Gerry really likes her positive energy and sweet, understated style.

My money is on her for the win.

Anyone have a picture of Faith they can post? I don't remember her.

She is the one who rode in on a motorcycle and played guitar and sang him a song. She seems cool.

She seems contrived to me. Def put a lot of thought into her “performance”

+1. She didn’t seem all that comfortable on the motorcycle either.

Yeh-like couldn’t drive it 15 feet.

Maybe. But it could also be a smart direction considering the aging population and who watches network TV.

They’re not staying awake for a full hour of this

+1 I'm loving it. So refreshing to see people who seem to be on the show for the right reasons.

Older women don’t avoid dating because there are no attractive older men - it’s not about looks, because our looks have changed a lot, too.

Many older women have no interest in dating because they know a lot about how most men behave and they want no part of it anymore, especially when their libido has dropped off a cliff and so they no longer have the horny hormones screaming at them to ignore all the male pathology. In midlife and beyond the red flags scream much louder because horny has mostly gone home.

This is not true if they have HRT therapy. I am on HRT and am 62 and horny.

HRT isn’t necessary.

May not be necessary and it sure helps me. I’m 62!

He only cut one of the women in her 70s.
Two of the women he cut were among the youngest, and one of them, Anna, was definitely one of the thinnest/most conventionally attractive.

Yup, I was shocked when Anna was cut. Bc the prettiest/sexiest usually sticks around to at least week 3. And she was far and away the best looking.

Watching him talk about his wife and break down, I suddenly start to feel bad for the guy. Like he doesnt know what he's getting in to and might be a bit too trusting of the production crew

Um, no.

Yup, Anna & Edith. They were the 2 best looking. Could probably get a guy 20 years younger then Gerry
