Clare Crawley likes Dale Moss and that is extremely evident in the way they talk, kiss and spend time with each other. But 'The Bachelorette' also has a set of rules. Clare is on the show to explore, know more about the men who are vying for her attention and love. But who's genuine here? Clare had a few challenges up her sleeves to figure out who is fit to be on the show. 

The second episode (October 20) was all about love language and it began with a host of rounds, including the touch test, gift-giving, one-on-one dates and strip dodgeball. All of these tests that the men were put through helped Clare make a decision. She had a lot of clarity by the end of it all. Brandon Goss was the one to go home this week. 

Even as she went about the challenges, Clare was quick to let the guys know what ticked her off and what she appreciated. For the dates, she was visibly disappointed that the men weren't pursuing her enough. She called them out and later, in her confessional, asked why were they even here on the show?

Meanwhile, fans thought that Clare is "insecure" and her "crazy narc attitude" will make the show lose fans. 

"I never comment on stuff like this, but sorry Claire, but if you are that insecure then maybe you shouldn’t be the Bachelorette. Tonight’s episode was disappointing and I think the show might lose a lot of fans because of this season," a fan commented on the show's official Facebook page, while another shared: "I don't like her already. I guess everyone that goes on a show like this is self centered to some extent but she really is. Her saying the guys didn't jump up to talk to her fast enough was pathetic. If you're such a strong woman then why are you waiting on a guy to make the first move and then throwing a fit when you don't get enough attention."

"She's making excuses for her crazy narc attitude. those poor guys. I hope they get something out of this because she is nothing but self-righteous drama. covid has been difficult enough for all of us. give us a break, The Bachelorette," a user shared.
