The Bachelor Season 29: Was Grant Ellis Too Kind To Find Love On The Show? (I Believe He Was More Focused On The Contestant's Feelings Than His Own Happiness)

The Bachelor season 29 has been more dramatic than most. Most of the women fell for Grant early on and several have taken drastic measures to keep his attention. A couple of women, namely Zoe McGrady and Carolina Sofia, quickly established themselves as season villains. Explosive fights and biting comments found their way back to the lead and Grant, as a compassionate personality, suffered the consequences. Grant has been more focused on breaking up fights than his romantic pursuits.

Grant Didn’t Set Boundaries

Grant Has Been Too Lenient

During the group basketball date, Zoe announced that, rather than shooting her shot, she would talk with Grant alone. It was later revealed during the “Tell All” episode, that they talked for an hour. The rest of the women were left standing around awkwardly awaiting their return.

Grant would never intentionally embarrass the women. He was likely flattered by their advances and too considerate of their feelings to make a scene. Grant must have recognized that these actions would ruffle feathers, but as the lead, Grant shouldn't be responsible for the subsequent drama. Unfortunately, the aftermath has shaken the lead, and he has spent more time settling fights than searching for love.

Grant Focused On The Women’s Feelings

Grant Wants To Keep The Peace

Grant has been caught in the season's drama. When the lead found Carolina crying due to the tense environment, he dropped everything to understand the circumstances. Grant has been bouncing between competitors in an attempt to understand everyone’s perspective. While this allows everyone to speak their piece, it’s been a major distraction from the show’s ultimate goal: finding love.

Did Grant Get A Proper Chance At Love?

Grant Has Been Distracted

Grant hasn’t experienced this process to the fullest. He has very little time with the women and, as many of their conversations revolve around feuds, he hasn’t gotten to know his competitors fully. Hopefully, as he approaches the final weeks, Grant can hone in on immediate relationships. The Bachelor deserves a partner who will prioritize their relationship over temporary controversy.
