Will Raven and Nick be able to keep their hands off each other in the fantasy suite?
This is the beginning of the end for ‘The Bachelor’ – fantasy suite dates. And the first date in Finland for Nick is with southern-belle Raven.
These two have had chemistry from the beginning, and as time has gone on, they have just been getting closer and closer. With a 50/50 shot at being the Future Mrs. Viall, hopefully all goes well in the fantasy suites.
With the success of the hometown date between Raven and Nick, it seems that there is more than just emotional chemistry between the two.
Raven got up the courage to tell Nick that she loves him during their date in Finland. This is a big deal coming from her, because she has never said that to someone she’s dated before. She explained in the episode that she had a boyfriend of two-years who she never said ‘I love you’ to.
Fortunately, Nick took the ‘I love you’ well, and even seemed to appreciate it more than he has before.
After the ‘I love you’ and a little cheeky make-out session, Raven explained more about her intimate history with her ex. And luckily for Nick, her intimacy history is short, very short. Raven admitted that she has only been with one guy in an intimate way, the same guy she dated for two years.
The look on Nick’s face was what I believe to be a combination of shock, and an uncomfortable realization with himself that he’s been with way more than one women; he’s been with more than one woman on national television.
Considering Raven’s short sexual history, it seems odd that she is considering being intimate with Nick during their stay in the fantasy suite. Hopefully, she doesn’t allow her feelings for Nick to get in the way of her values.
If they decide to not get physical during their private date, I think this would allow them a much better chance of making it outside of The Bachelor environment.
