The Bachelorette Update: Brace Yourself for Brayden's Intriguing Reverse Psychology Tactics

Andrew Spencer shares his expert insights on the latest episode of 'The Bachelorette' season 20, unraveling Brayden's strategic use of reverse psychology on Charity Tune in to Us Weekly's 'Here for the Right Reasons' podcast to catch the intriguing recap

Andrew Spencer appeared on We's "Here for the Right Reasons" podcast to provide a recap of week 3 of The Bachelorette with Charity Lawson, where the focus seems to be shifting towards the Brayden show.

"I believe this season is exceptional, filled with the elements that viewers adore: drama and compelling content. Currently, Brayden is doing a commendable job in upholding the essence of the show," expressed the alum from season 17 of The Bachelorette.

During the Monday episode on July 10th, Brayden restated his reservations about the dating process to Charity. He expressed his hesitations about entering into an engagement and forming a relationship with someone who also shares connections with his friends. Andrew described his approach as a form of "reverse psychology."

He explains that even though she's being told all the red flags, she might hope that his honesty would impress her. However, she cannot overlook the fact that he's expressing his lack of readiness. This is the most important and revealing aspect of his confession. If she truly pays attention, she would realize that he just admitted he's not prepared for a relationship. He tries to sugarcoat it by portraying it as a normal part of the dating process, but the reality is that being on The Bachelor[ette] makes it a different situation.

Andrew recognized that Brayden is exceptionally sincere in expressing his uncertainties. However, Andrew believes that Brayden's actions hold a deeper level of malevolence as they manipulate Charity's emotions.

During their intimate date, Charity decided to present Brayden with a rose, which in turn, stirred up feelings of disappointment and unease for Aaron B. Subsequently, Aaron B. expressed his apprehensions to Charity, a course of action that Andrew disapproves of.

“It would never be me, in my time, to be the one who gossips or spreads rumors about another person. It simply doesn't make any sense for me to waste my time talking about someone else," he expressed. "It has a negative impact on others who didn't get an opportunity to talk to her. It's always wrong when that occurs. ... I sympathize with many of the guys who didn't get a chance to spend time with her, and that's what happens when you betray trust in those situations."
