Decoding ‘Bachelorette’ Jillian Harris
Enough of the “man code,” it’s time for the girl code.
This morning, Jillian Harris poured herself a cup of coffee and sat down with dozens of reporters, via a conference call, to discuss everything she is allowed to discuss before next week’s finale of “The Bachelorette.”
Two days after a relatively unexciting “Men Tell All” episode and less than a week before America will see for themselves whether Kiptyn, Ed, the returning Reid or none of the above will resemble the rose of her future, Jillian sounded happy, sure and very vague.
Below, we use Girl Code to decipher Jillian’s words and shed some light on next week’s highly anticipated and final rose ceremony.
1. When asked about the best qualities of her final two — and one returning — suitors, Jillian said: of Reid: “sense of humor” and “quirkiness”; of Kiptyn: “so genuine” and “such a huge heart”; and of Ed: “balance” between “personal, business and family” and that he is a “very well-rounded individual.”

Reason: While it seems she may have saved the best for last, no girl we know describes the love of their life as a “well-rounded individual.” Ouch. “Individual” reveals a worse hand than being dealt the Friend card. Later in the call, Jillian lists “sense of humor” as the first quality she initially looks for in a guy — a trait she has also mentioned a handful of times on the show.
