So, I actually thought this while I was watching. He seemed heartbroken and genuinely mad at what she was doing. Did he respond the right way? No, he was way too aggressive in my opinion and could have taken a much more mature road.

WITH THAT SAID: I found her take "i hate how i went about this" to feel... kind of emotion-less? She was definitely upset, but it didn't feel like she was upset for losing someone she loved. So I did think, maybe she is vying for Bachelorette? 

She was 1000% vying for Bachelorette and I love that for her. Shoot your shot! It's like, take that risk, or date Clayton for six months before breaking up and becoming invisible again within a year. She was smart to get out while her star was still on the rise.

It's safe to say the internet is pretty split on whether or not they are Team Susie or Team Clayton. But Clayton's podcast interview on Almost Famous peels back another layer to the drama.

The sides. Team Susie says Clayton shouldn't have slept with Gabby and Rachel. Team Clayton says Susie should have told him her feelings in advance. Mostly everyone agrees that Clayton's "flip the switch" moment was jarring, but why did he flip so fast? Was it because he was gaslighting her, or was there something deeper?

On Almost Famous, Clayton says he had a moment where he thought Susie wasn't here for the right reasons, and that her exit could be chalked up to trying to get out of their relationship. Specifically, to become the next Bachelorette.

Under THOSE circumstances, is Clayton's anger more warranted?
