The Bachelor: On The Wings of Love--Crazy Michelle Leaves Elizabeth No Rose Goes

I really don't think it is a decent thing to be doing when a Reality TV Show casts someone who is obviously mentally ill.

Sure, it can make for some entertaining, albeit, somewhat cringe producing, moments.

Producing those cringe producing moments on the current The Bachelor was this woman who apparently desperately wanted a husband, Michelle. It was sort of easy to see why Michelle has not had any luck snagging a man.

Because she's nuts.

A group of the girls went on a group date to Jon Lovitz's comedy club. Each of the girls got up on the stage and did a little comedy bit. Elizabeth, she being the one who shan't be kissed, yet teases relentlessly, did a raunchy comedy routine that was mostly bleeped. Chaste Elizabeth being raunchy confused Jake.

And then Michelle did her comedy bit, saying she was going to really impress Jake and blow the other girls out of the water. Trouble was, she wasn't funny, she just caused an awful lot of cringing, no laughter, just stares that sort of said "what the hell was that." Lovitz was pretty much left speechless.

But, it was to get worse for Michelle, later, at after the comedy show cocktail party.

Earlier, Michelle told us that when she finally kissed Jake that mountains would move, tongues would do battle, hair would be pulled, clothes would be ripped off.

So, at the cocktail party Michelle got Jake alone. And then after some very strange conversation, she asked if she could kiss him, just to see if there really was an attraction, or something like that.

I'm thinking, this can't go well, what with Michelle's belief that their first kiss will have Jake and her tearing off each other's clothes.

Well, thankfully they kept their clothes on, but the kiss went on and on and on and on, it was like those lips were shoved up against each other and then became glued.

When Jake and Michelle finally came unglued from the kiss, Michelle said something like, "Are you kidding me? Is that all you got?"

Jake looked totally perplexed. I don't blame him.

What followed was more Michelle words that made no sense. She said something about leaving. Jake said that's a good idea. Michelle then said something like this is so stupid. Jake led Michelle out and into a taxi.

He seemed relieved to get rid of her. I knew a woman once who's conversational pattern was very much like Michelle's. I didn't know her for long.

And then at the Rose Ceremony drinking party it was Elizabeth's turn to make Jake uncomfortable. She really has a bizarrely unnatural fixation on kissing. And she also was unable to comprehend what Jake was telling her, that being that she was coming off as a tease to him, just like she did to those of us watching her.

Both Michelle and Elizabeth were very good-looking. But a bit messed up internally, with Michelle being, by far, the most messed up, and the producers of The Bachelor should be ashamed for putting that woman on the show, with her obvious mental health issues.

The lady with the 7 year old for the win. I mean proposal.
