Jillian Harris admits that she wasn't the ideal Bachelorette candidate.
But she sounds pleased with her decision to star on the show, as the Canadian cutie tells OK! that she's found the right man. Here's what else she had to say:
On becoming The Bachelorette: I'm a super-real and down-to-earth person, so I understand that it's a crazy and unrealistic way to meet somebody, but I thought I would give it a try.
On choosing the right man: I'm a firm believer that I made the right decision. The relationship failing is a fear, but I can't control that. If it happens, it happens. I will be in the same place that I was before this, which is a great place.
On moving on from Jason Mesnick: I knew pretty early on that he had chosen Melissa [Rycroft] and because she had become one of my good friends – you know how it is when you might think somebody is cute and then they start dating your friend and you get over it right away? So that helped, because I was so happy for [them].
Ironically, David Good displayed very bad behavior on The Bachelorette this week.
During alone time with Jillian Harris, the suitor often referred to her "tits," appeared to go in for a grope and got rejected when he tried to kiss her. Just a poor showing all around, dude.
Following his elimination from the show, Good spoke to reporters. He was asked about his constant referral to "man code" during his time in the house, especially in light of the revelation that some guys on the show might have a girlfriend; and that Tanner P. relayed this information to Jillian.
"I really like Tanner, I really respect him, and he just doesn't seem like the guy that would go out and, I'll say this, 'break man code' and do something like that. And as far as I'm concerned that is definitely, definitely breaking man code," David said, adding:
"You don't go tell Jillian that there are some guys on the show that might have girlfriends, you know what I mean? You don't do that. And you especially don't hint about one [guy] in particular. You just don't do something like that."
Back up a second, David. Man code? Please explain.
"Man code is like I said, I grew in the country and I'm a country boy at heart. I'm as blue collar as they come... and there's just a certain mentality about blue collar people like us.
"It's funny, I don't know how to explain it, there's just certain things you do and you don't do. And there were some guys on the show - I won't name any names - who were obviously raised differently, which is fine, but it's just something I'm not used to it and people were saying certain things that blew my mind that you just don't say about other guys."
Okay. But what about your aggressive behavior toward Jillian? Is that how a real man acts?
"That was 1% of me as a person and that was the 1% that is the bad part of David Good and they decided to take that 1% and run with it. It was kind of upsetting because I'm a very outgoing and funny and comical person and for America to only see that one side was really a loss for... the show and definitely for me as a person."
In closing, David wants to make one thing clear: he didn't grab Harris' breasts!
"I never grabbed for her boobs. That was the third time I had to pull her shirt up, I was trying to help her out. That's what I'm saying, nobody saw that was the third time I'd warned her that 'Hey, I'm sorry your shirt is falling down and your bra is sticking out.' I was trying to help her, I never reached for her boobs or anything like that for crying out loud."
Last night on The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris began to fall for a guy we all knew was a frontrunner from the start, and bid farewell to a neanderthal.
At the night's end, only 10 men remain. One of whom may or may not have a girlfriend, and who may or may not be there to promote his music.
Will Jillian see through the ulterior motives of some of her suitors? Who got the rose and who got the axe on the make-or-break two-on-one date?

Sasha Petrovic, who became the first dude sacked by Jillian Harris on a one-on-one date this season on The Bachelorette, had some interesting thoughts about the show, its star and the remaining guys vying for her heart.
Some excerpts from his postmortem conference call yesterday ...
On Jillian: "She's a cute girl, but not that attractive up front. Personality was really nice and sweet, but nice and sweet, that only gets you so far."
On Juan: "The whole house was against him. It was like instantaneous. Everyone was on it, but David just hates the guy. He's like, 'He's a snake. He's this he's that.' He will bury himself. Everyone thought Juan was a spy."
On David: "His dad had three heart attacks [by age] 50, so it just runs in the family. Some things just bug you. Dave just has a personal mission to almost destroy [Juan] and just make sure he doesn't move forward."
On Wes: "Wes is an entertainer. Let's say he's there for the honest reason; he's going to get publicity for his music career anyway. He's a smart guy. I don't think he came on The Bachelorette just for that reason."
On Kiptyn and Ed: "If I had to put money on one guy [to win], it would almost be a coin toss between Kiptyn and probably Ed. I think her and Ed see eye-to-eye; he does have a different sense of humor, a little dryer."
"And Kiptyn also seems like a pretty safe bet. He's an older guy. He lives on the West Coast as well. He's the guy that never does anything bad, but never does anything to differentiate himself."
Last night on The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris sent the first guy packing following a one-on-one date this season, as well as two more dudes at the end.
At the end of the night, only 13 men remained. One of whom is possibly a psychopath. David (below) seems intent on killing Juan, only half-jokingly.
Some of the favorites (like country singer Wes) stood out again, while some upstarts emerged in the epic quest to find love with the Canadian cutie.

Last night on The Bachelorette, Jillian Harris sent her suitors on a scavenger hunt across L.A., and played some pickup basketball against them (with the help of the Harlem Globetrotters) in an effort to weed out the pretenders.
At the end of the night, only 16 men remained, with four sent packing. A few favorites are already emerging as our girl's quest for love progresses.
Who survived? Who went home? What twists did Jill have in store for the guys between the start of the two-hour episode and the rose ceremony?

It seems like forever (even if it was only early March) that Jason Mesnick rejected a darling Jillian Harris in favor of Molly Malaney and Melissa Rycroft on the penultimate episode of The Bachelor, setting up a season finale for the ages.
While Jillian lost out in that heartbreaker, she was given a chance to embark on her own quest - as the star of The Bachelorette, which premiered last night!
With a record 30 men to choose from, and many willing to pull out all the stops, the Canadian cutie has her hands full. But she's clearly up to the task.

Brace yourselves for some awesomely surprising reality TV news. Monday's season premiere of The Bachelorette not only features a dance-off ...
... it's actually a break-dance off!
Apparently, one of the 30 aspiring bachelors is a dance instructor. Wonder if he was cast on the ABC series with this specific purpose in mind.
The preview below, and the reaction of Jillian Harris, pretty much tell you everything you need to know. Someone get these guys some water ...
Jillian Harris says her Bachelor hot tub scene with Jason Mesnick made her dad's jaw drop, but she's not going into detail about what happened.
Calling a query regarding that scene "probably the most inappropriate question ever," the new star of The Bachelorette just isn't gonna go there.
"I'm normally a really open girl about these things, but it's one of those things that anybody can assume that if I had a steamy make-out session with Jason and I went in the hot tub that him and I quote-unquote did it," she said.
"And if that's the case, then we can also assume that every Bachelor and Bachelorette in the history of the show has done it with people."
"I think being a 30-year-old grown woman who is successful in her career and has a great background with great morals and values, people can look at me and who I am as a person and they're entitled to their opinion."
The hookup with Jillian was one of three close encounters Mesnick shared with the final competitors on last season's concluding episodes of The Bachelor.
He eventually said goodbye to Harris first, setting up the season finale in which he chose Melissa Rycroft, only to break up with her for Molly Malaney.
Whatever happened in that hot tub - again, she's not gonna talk about it - Jillian Harris harbors no ill will toward Mesnick or the two other girls.
"I honestly think Jason is a really great guy. Even after he let me go last season, I don't feel like he led me on," she said. "He is going through this process to make sure that he makes the right choices and sometimes a good steamy make-out session with somebody can enlighten you."
Jillian Harris also says she has no problem being the creator's third choice for The Bachelorette (behind Melissa Rycroft and Molly Malaney).
"I was a third choice last season. I know what it feels like; I'm comfortable with that," she joked. "Honestly, I'm just a short little hyper quirky Canadian and I actually don't feel like I fit the mold of the Bachelorette very well."
