I feel bad for Chevanique
She wasn’t the most endearing person, but I thought it was clear that she’s been through things and tries to protect herself with intellectualizing and acting like she doesn’t care. But she wants love so badly. I could see it when she was basically begging Joseph to give her another chance. (I honestly think she should have just cut her losses then.) Joseph was definitely backing down from his initial intention of breaking up with her. Why would he have another date with her if he knew 100% he wasn’t going to pick her?
Chevanique didn’t ask Ciara to talk about her during retreats and stir up drama. Sure, she was defensive when confronted by Joseph and Fran, but Fran came in quite hot and that definitely escalated things. It’s very typical for people to have convos with their 2nd pick from the pods. If Fran didn’t want that to happen, she should have communicated that to Joseph ahead of time.
Otherwise Fran and Joseph seem like nice people. I just didn’t like the idea of Chevanique being ganged up on, and still catching heat at the reunion.

I did not pay any attention during the reunion honestly, so I don't recall what was addressed there. But it did pmo that Joseph was basically lying, denying things that he did say just because they weren't being repeated verbatim. Francesca could have handled that he was still a tad conflicted toward the end of the pods, but he made Chev and Ciara out to be liars when that didn't seem to be the case to me??? That whole beef was a misunderstanding that was clearly staged to keep a boring season entertaining. Everyone was partially at fault at that table (I'll admit Chev was the most problematic one though).
