It's time to chat about the never-ending search for love on reality shows! Join me as we chat about the last episodes of the 2012 season of ABC's "The Bachelor." Does the drama continue? What messages are being sent about love, dating, marriage? Join us for this recurring Chick Flick Chat series following Season 16 of "The Bachelor." We've chatted about the ups and downs of reality dating - the tears, the joy, the  competition to win Ben's heart - even the final rose episode. Now we discuss what we learned AFTER the final rose was handed out. We'll explore what it all means. Is it real? Can it work? Why do people keep doing this? And more! #television #realitytv #film #romance #dating
