Jason Tartick Reaction to Leaving The Bachelorette
Jason's Heartfelt Post About Leaving The Bachelorette Will Make You Miss Him Even More
After what he describes as a "rollercoaster" of a journey that ended in heartbreak on The Bachelorette, Jason Tartick is at peace. The 29-year-old banker slowly but surely won over Bachelor Nation this season with his suave hockey skills, slicked-back 'do, and level-headed demeanour, but he ultimately wasn't the one for Becca Kufrin, as she sent him packing before they made it to the Fantasy Suite. The move blind-sided Jason and crushed viewers as well, leaving many campaigning for him to be the next Bachelor.
Just one day after Jason's tear-jerking Bachelorette elimination aired, the proud Buffalo native opened up about his experience on the ABC series and what the heartbreak has taught him. "This journey for love was not supposed to be easy. I left heartbroken, but the experience with @bkoof made it all worth it," he began in a lengthy post shared on both Twitter and Instagram. Jason admitted that although he entered the competition for Becca's heart with walls built up "to avoid emotional risk," he left the show with a "refreshed emotional connection" and "a stronger alignment between [his] head and heart." Ugh, seriously — could this guy be any more eloquent?!
Jason went on to detail the lessons he learned during the "life-changing journey," including the fact that "it's okay to be vulnerable" and share his emotions. "It's in confronting those emotions that we can find the right energy and positivity to share with our family, friends, community, and most importantly ourselves," he wrote in the candid post.
After thanking his family and friends for their "unconditional support" and giving a special shoutout to fans who sent him encourageing emails and messages on social media, he expressed his gratitude for Becca. "You made me a stronger man and put me in the right state of mind to find a best friend and life partner. You are an amazing person," he wrote, adding a sentiment he expressed multiple times during their on-screen farewell: "as you know, I will always be rooting for your happiness."
Jason has to be one of the most well-spoken, mature, and sincere contestants in all of Bachelorette history. We're secretly hoping he doesn't end up on this upcoming season of Bachelor in Paradise because he's too darn pure for that sh*tshow of drama. We must protect him and his heart of gold, Bachelor Nation.
