After watching episode 2, I have to admit that "More to Love" took a turn for the better. The producers shifted the focus from self-loathing women with weight issues to women with weight issues looking to open up to someone new. It probably helped that their weight wasn't flashing across the screen next to their name and age every 5 seconds. While one of the girls mentioned Luke loving them for their whole package, the theme of this episode had less to do with the infamous line Luke said at the season premiere's ring ceremony of "I promise to open up my heart and accept you for who you are." I'm glad we moved past that hypocrisy.
Week 2 offers more of a typically reality dating show setting where questions of is this more than friendship and do we connect on a serious level come into play. Luke becomes an actual bachelor. However the producers didn't stray far from the overweight theme by having the girls pick teams leaving one left feeling excluded and of course the bathing suit first date. Awkward situations aside, Luke was left breaking 3 hearts this episode.
Listed below are the women in order that Luke picked them on Week 2 of More to Love:

Sincere quote from Vanessa: "I'm not bitter because those girls are really great and I hope one of them establishes a true connection with him. You meet a group of girls that persevere, who are intelligent just like you."
Personality Check:
Lauren needs to to be kicked off the show immediately because she is just as catty as they say she is. In an attempt to knock out the competition, Lauren asks "Did you know this one was old?" Yeah, thanks for stating the obvious. She clearly doesn't have the grounded personality that a heavier person tends to gain through life's hardships. While she alerted Luke to the fact that Arianne didn't want children, that is something he could have easily found out by asking her. If your going to be queen of gossip at least get some real dirt, like she already has a boyfriend at home, or something.
RANT: Fat Mean GirlsKristian said that Malissa was skinny all through high school and only gained the weight recently. I know girls like that and they are still very popular within their own crowds. Her attitude doesn't reflect that of someone who should be there. Although Malissa will probably last much longer than Kristian because she is crushing too hard, Malissa still has too big of an ego for this show.
Why are girls who are fat mean? It just doesn't seem logical. I'm sure these girls have been picked on for their weight and other related issues throughout their life. I certainly have, but I give every person the benefit of the doubt until they prove themselves unworthy. Like Lauren from More to Love, she is ready to rip apart these girls for absolutely no good reason. Even Vanessa who was kicked off said that the women were amazing, so why is Lauren in attack mode? I don't think Luke has anything to do with it either, she's just a horrible person.
I knew a girl who was exactly like this. She would create unnecessary drama by fighting with every girl. At her core, she was absolutely man hungry. She slept around and would do or say anything to put herself above other girls. I know of a few other fat mean girls, but they never get respect. If anything they create fear and are hated for who they are. Fear and Hate does not replace want and love. A happy fat girl will always win out in the end, because negativity like that comes off as nasty. I'm certain that most guys would even choose a heavier happy girl over a skinny girl that is nasty. In conclusion, a fat nasty girl has no chance at happiness.###
Current Favs:
* Heather
* Melissa

PREVIEW FOR EPISODE 3:
Next week Luke invites the girls to be his prom date, opening up about how prom was a hard time for him too. It's nice that the show goes beyond making the girls divulge all.
