The saying 'love at first sight' is as real as it gets because while some people got a chance to spend time with Michelle, others had to rely on their first impression solely. But it looks like not everyone did too badly, as here are the men that now remain.

During the first rose ceremony, Michelle gave out roses to Alec, an engineer from North Charleston, Brandon J, a travelling nurse recruiter from Portland, Casey, an advertising creative director from Miami Beach, Chris G., a motivational speaker from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, Chris S., a commodities broker from West Hollywood, Clayton, a medical sales rep from Columbia, Daniel, a firefighter from Austin, Jamie, a biotech CEO from San Diego, Joe, a real estate developer from Minneapolis, Leroy, a biomedical PhD student from Dallas and LT, a yoga guru from Bellevue, Martin, a personal trainer from Miami.
