I worry about Tessa. Andy telling Bevin he loved her and will always love her and what's up with all the leg rubbing and hugging. DANGER DANGER Tessa. I believe he only picked Tessa because of Bevin's religious beliefs, and her divorce. Yes Bevin 'played' Andy, by using sex, instead of being upfront and honest from the beginning. BUT I STILL SAY TO TESSA DANGER DANGER = Andy is not through with Bevin. Anday better hurry I think Bevin is going to be the next BACHELORETTE. I don't see a wedding in the future.

Congratulations Tessa and Andy. Tessa, forgive Andy for his openness with Bevin, Danielle and others. To have a real chance to find a mate, he HAD to jump in the deep end and open himself up. Because of this, of course, he developed serious feelings and love for more than one and he will have to "detox". Do not worry about jumping into the Navy wife role. I did it in 1972 - knew nothing about the military life and ended up 8 years in Hawaii. My two youngest were born there. I really loved it and my husband enjoyed showing me the ropes. I met him in San Diego in Feb, married him in June, was pregnant in August, moved to HI the next Dec with a baby.You WILL NOT lose yourself - I went to the U of H while there and continued my studies. Best Wishes!

Congrats, you two!! This is the first season my wife and I watched the show and I picked Tessa from the start because she had the qualities I would have wanted. As the show progressed it was clear it was what you wanted also. The world is still looking for genuine, caring, honest men and classy, reserved, confident women who know the value of true love and are willing to let romance build. She is your queen, always treat her that way. And Tessa, he is your King, always honor him. We are looking forward to hearing more about your success in the future.

I am so happy that Andy choose Tessa altho I have some reservations that warrants a second look at the whole situation. Will it last down the road. Remember romance blooms in Hawaii and that really is not the real world either. Will Tessa wake up one morning and find the bloom gone. Will Andy realize that Tessa is really not the one for him, good cook or not. Am I old fashioned or what that the women of today are sleeping with their guys before marriage. What if there is a breakup....you gave your virginity away on a flim flam. Remember what i said ...Hawaii is not the real world either.

I am so happy Andy picked Tessa. I felt Bevin was too "open" and felt it's came on way too much to him. Nothing like getting to know someone before being so touchy... and she wasn't too honest either.
Tessa is cute,educated and seems very sweet. I think they have a lot more in common than he did with Bevin.
I wish them both the best.
Hope they have a long and happy marriage and enjoy marriage and parenthood.

Hawii as it's portrayed on tv may not be "reality",but for those of us who live here Hawaii is definitely "the real world"...i've never flown over a waterfall or volcano in a helicopter...I shop for groceries, work and pay bills....there are a lot of real people living real lives here. I'm sure Andy and Tessa will also once the camera stop rolling.

Congratulations to both of you!!! Like many others, I too had picked Tessa out the first night as 'the one'. You both stayed so true to yourselves and it showed throughout the series. I can imagine that it was tough watching the final episodes when it came down to the last 3 or 2 - the way Andy was with Bevin and Danielle - but you have to remember that you know this is a possibility and the way the show is when you sign up for it in the beginning. It is something that is to be expected. I can understand how Andy could develop such strong feelings for Tessa and Bevin - I just felt Bevin was too needy and emotional. Tessa is the one!!! I wish you both a lifetime of happiness! (And Hawaii is the 'real world' - I've been there and done the Navy wife role also)

First and foremost, I am a disabled veteran who totally enjoyed watching reality T.V. featuring a military person on a top rated show. I was so happy Andy chose Tessa for a couple of reasons. One Tessa was more reserved and did not throw herself all over Andy like some of the women did. The other reason would be that she did not pretend to be so totally in love with someone that she just met. I find that a bit hard to believe that anyone could fall in love not knowing anything about the other person. Hell, some of those girls were in love in a day....Hello!!! Tessa was very reserved and carried herself in such a classy and sophisticated manner. I can't blame Andy for talking her into staying and finding himself working really hard to win her. Had Tessa acted and said the words Andy wanted to hear from her from Day 1, the show would have been over...lol. One other thing was the collage. For someone to take all that time to make something so special speaks a lot. Anyone can buy a watch but not everyone would take the time to collect momentos of your every date and then make something meaningful out of it. I really think that is what sealed Tessa's faith.
Bevin on the other hand to me was dishonest. She waited until Andy felt a little something for her before she divulged that she was a divorcee. She was always throwing herself at Andy and using her sexuality to win him. She even stated that on their last night. All I heard when they were together was the chemistry, well if there is nothing else but that, then it usually doesn't work because all the excitement fizzles after a while and what do you have...NOTHING! I think Andy realized that towards the end. At first, he was just acting like any normal man would then later on, he woke up and knew there is more to a relationship than sex.
Andy, is the lucky one! He now is engaged to the cream of the crop. Is he worth it? We'll just have to wait and see. I felt that for most part, Andy made some of those women think they were the one. The last 3, Danielle, Bevin and Tessa. Then he also made Bevin think that she was the front runner when in fact he was hanging on to her only until he knew that how Tessa really felt. That too was a bit dishonest of him too. Count your lucky stars Andy that you ended up with the best cuz the way your were playing with some of those women's emotions could have back fired and bit you in the B.U.T.T.
Lastly, Hawaii is the real thing with real people, real lives and real jobs trying to make it in a real world just like the rest of us. I have been there several times and have totally enjoyed my stay. It is a beautiful place with beautiful people!

I want to say that Andy and Tessa are the so right for each other. I think that Andy fell for Tessa from the very begining. The way he looked at her and the way his face would light up whenever he was talking to her, it was so obvious. I don't think Bevin was fake, but she wasn't right for Andy. I really do think that the other girls were holding a spot until he figured out how Tessa felt. I knew he felt strongly about her when he said that if her family didn't approve of him it was all over. I was like, this is so the girl for him. And when she finally told him that she loved him, he had the same goffy smile that he had when he first saw her. I hope they have a great life together.

Tessa Handles her self so well. Always said the right thing. I felt anyone in Andy's position would felt in love with Tessa. She is so lovable. She is not direct saying things but always send a right message. I am old enough to be their parent and yet every day I am reading their message board and watch their video. Its better than any love story movie. It certainly brighten my day.

I have to agree with justme, i think that Andy is not throiugh with Bevin. You could only tell that he obviously still had felings for Bevin and he will always have a place in his heart. I think that he had more or a connection with Bevin instead of Tessa. Tessa was not into him like Bevin was. I mean it was his choice and so be it, if he chooses Tessa then more power to him. I think that Bevin would make a awesome bachelorette.

I feel like Andy & Tessa truly are meant to be together as husband & wife. They do love one another & it is obvious to most of us that he made the right choice. Bevin was not honest about her divorce. She had plenty of 1 on 1 time with him to tell him the truth. Also there has to be more in a relationship than just the physical attraction. Andy's grandfather gave him good advise about that. I must say though that I am very disappointed that Tessa & Andy are going to move in together without getting married first. Couples do everything backwards in today's world. They meet, date, move in together, have babies & then maybe get married. That is not how God wants us to live. God's word (KJV) says to not commit adultery or fornication. I was happy that Tessa & Andy fell in love. Now that you are engaged, do the honorable thing & get married...if you can live together & sleep together, why not do it the way God wants for you to do it?? Tessa says she takes "baby steps" well....moving in with Andy is not a baby step!!! That is a huge step & it is against God's word!! God made us (men & women) & His word is our instruction book on how to live & love & have a happy life. I would encourage both of you to sit down & pray together & read the King James Version of the bible & ask God to show you the right "baby steps" that He wants you to take to live a long & happy life together as husband & wife. I know that God will bless your life together abundantly if you put Him first & seek His ways.
May God bless you both!!
