Every. Single. One.Apparently, none were to his taste. Or maybe they all were… I don’t know. But this season, despite his history, he’s been brought back. And all these women will stop at nothing to claim him.Everyone, that is, except me – just an ordinary teacher who accidentally got selected.The rules state that once chosen, there are only two ways I can get off this show, and both involve a box.
