Joey Graziadei Worries About ‘Being an Idiot’ with Decisions He Makes Ahead of Bachelor Hometowns

Things got complicated for Joey Graziadei in the Canadian Rockies.

On Monday in the episode Bachelor. Joey, 28, had to decide who to bring to his hometown after hanging out in Jasper, Canada.

He began a second one-on-one date with Daisy.

“I feel like I’m falling in love with Daisy,” Joey said in an on-camera interview, noting that Daisy is the only woman left who hasn’t expressed her feelings to him.

Their date began riding with the horses Thunder and Ellie. “I see this growing into love and she’s someone I can spend my life with,” Joey told the cameras.

Daisy and Joey rode to the hot tub and jumped into it. The account manager, 25, revealed that the Alberta landscape reminds her of home in Minnesota. “Something about the energy, it makes me excited,” Daisy told Joey.

Despite her excitement, Daisy still didn’t feel head over heels in love with Joey. “I’m not in love with him yet,” Daisy told the cameras.

Later, during the evening portion of their date, Joey asked Daisy how she was feeling.

“If I’m being 100 percent transparent and honest, which I want to be, I really, really like you,” Daisy began. “But like, have I arrived yet? Not. The thing is, I can see us being great together. And I can see myself falling for you, if I’m being honest.”

On camera, Joey called Daisy’s response “terrible” and “not what I want”.

“I just want you to be sure I’ll meet them, even if you’re not there yet,” Daisy said.

Daisy explained that given how supportive her family had been during her health problems, she knew she would be looking for her potential partner to do the same if she ran into problems again.

“If it’s us at the end, it doesn’t matter what it is, I accept all sides of you,” Joey said.

Joey decided to give Daisy a rose and bring her to her hometown. “I’ve always appreciated your honesty and realness,” Joey said. “And what you said didn’t scare me.”

They finished their night skating. “I didn’t expect to feel this way,” Daisy told the cameras. “This is crazy. I’m falling. I think it’s happening.”

GROUP DATE

Jenn, Kelsey T., Rachel, and Maria went on this week’s group date which consisted of learning how to become lumberjacks (the female version of a lumberjack).

Rachel, 26, grew up working with wood so she felt confident, but Maria found herself out of her element. “I don’t usually work outdoors,” said the executive assistant, 29.

After learning the basics of chopping wood, the ladies changed into flannel and competed to become Lumber Queen, taking part in challenges such as cutting a buck and swallowing moose milk. Rachel did the latter despite being lactose intolerant.

Kelsey T., 31, ended up winning the competition, but Jenn, 25, snagged an extra kiss from Joey when she interrupted one of his confessional interviews in front of the other women. “Are you really now?” Rachel wondered out loud.

At the after party, the women shared their thoughts on Joey’s other relationships. “It is what it is,” Kelsey T told Joey about having feelings for multiple women. “I’m cool with it at this point.”

Rachel showed Joey a picture of her parents to “soft start” hometowns. “I love how confident you are in me,” Joey replied.

Maria struggled with Joey seeing other women. “Hometowns mean a lot to me and I haven’t introduced anyone to my family unless I start dating them,” Maria told Joey. “Knowing that I’m going into it knowing that you’re not mine, at first I thought, I want him to experience every girl here, so when he ends up with me, it means more. But the reality is that you have relationships with other women.”

Joey replied, “You always discredit what we have, what we could have.”

Maria told the tennis pro that the way he interacts with other women “doesn’t sit well with me” and, as a result, “I don’t know if I can do it like this anymore.”

Maria stepped back and spoke to the producer. When she got back to Joey, Maria told him she was “just having a moment” and “overreacting”.

“I accept that side of you,” Joey said. “You are here because I also love that side of you. I think it makes you who you are.”

Maria apologized and said she wanted to stay. But Joey felt insecure. “Am I just an idiot?” he asked the cameras. “Am I investing in these women who may not see that in me?”

Joey informed all the women that he couldn’t give a rose for the group date because “I need more time.”

ANOTHER ONE ON ONE

Kelsey A. won the final one-on-one before hometowns. She and Joey explored Jasper, stopped at a gift shop to try on hats and sunglasses, then stopped for hot cocoa.

While drinking beer at a local bar, one of the patrons told Joey and Kelsey A., 25, about the impending polar sinkhole in Jasper. She immediately wanted to participate, but Joey had some reservations.

“There’s not a lot of meat on these bones, so I get cold easily,” Joey told the cameras.

Kelsey A. won, and she and Joey participated in the Jasper Polar Plunge Palooza.

“I was freezing,” Joey said in an on-camera interview afterward. “I’d be in and out in a second if it was just me.”

Over dinner later, Kelsey told Joey how she felt about going out with him. “The polar fall was scary, but it’s even scarier to tell you that I’m starting to fall in love with you,” admitted the junior project manager.

While talking about family members Joey might meet during Kelsey A.’s hometown, she started to cry talking about her dad. “I’m so grateful that he actually reached out,” she said.

Joey told Kelsey A. that he thinks her dad sounds “like an amazing man.” In the confessional, Joey called his conversation with Kelsey A. “the best conversation we’ve ever had.”

Accordingly, Joey handed the rose to Kelsey A. “I want to meet your dad,” he said. “Sounds like an amazing man who was there for you and made such an amazing woman.”

ROSE CEREMONY

Host Jesse Palmer informed the women that Joey had decided to cancel the night’s cocktail party and go straight to the rose ceremony.

At the start of the rose ceremony, Joey told the women, “This week has been a challenge for me. The idea of ​​sending you two home tonight is crushing me. But it is not easy to find your person and I am here to find my wife. I’m really, really confident that she’s in this room tonight.”

Joey asked to speak to Maria before handing out the roses.

“Last time I left you, you were on your way out, and I don’t want to sit here and beg you to stay,” Joey told Maria. “I want to make sure you want to be here.”

Maria tried to convince him of that. “I really like you, to the point where I don’t like seeing you with any of these girls, you know?” she replied. “My insecurities got the better of me and that’s where it came from. But I am here and I want to be here.”

That answer was enough for Joey, who gave Maria a rose when they rejoined the group for the rose ceremony. He also gave Rachel a rose, which meant Kelsey T. and Jenn would be the ones to leave before their hometowns.
