Shockingly, Bachelorette stars Jenn Tran and Aaron Erb are not soulmates. I don’t know about you, but I’m just devastated that we won’t get to see any more of their forced, awkward chats. (Okay, but actually, I will miss his ludicrous beef with Devin Strader… that was gorgeous enemy chemistry.) During episode 3, Aaron pulled a Vanessa Hudgens and said, “Gotta go my own way,” and Jenn did not say, “What about us! What about everything we’ve been through!” It was more like, “Okay, cool. You do you.”
But why did Aaron skedaddle after only three weeks? His reason apparently had to do with a call he got from the U.S. Air Force. Yes, they’re always trying to get in touch with me too. Rather than leave like a gentleman, Aaron decided to stress Jenn out and talk shit about the other guys, because why not? Let’s get into it: Here’s the reason why Aaron Erb left The Bachelorette and everything he said to Jenn about the other guys on his way out.
It turns out, I’m a powerful woman. I communicated to Aaron through the TV screen that I really wanted him gone, and he left. Basically, he chose flight school over Jenn, so it definitely wasn’t meant to be. “I had a dream of being a fighter pilot my entire life and I got a call,” he told her at the end of the episode. “Pilot training dates are happening, and they pretty much said, ‘We’re not holding these. Either you come back right away or the dream is over.'”

Aaron bluntly explained that she doesn’t hold a candle to his dreams. “I wish I was further along where I felt like, ‘As long as I have Jenn in my life, I’m happy.’ I’m just not there yet,” he said. Brutal. Of course, Jenn was super understanding about the situation. But instead of leaving on peaceful terms, Aaron chose to go the drama queen route — on his way out, he gossiped to her about the other guys there.
Our villain cosplaying as a hero warned Jenn: “I’m not gonna name names, but there are people that aren’t ready.” Sigh. “I’m not gonna name names” is the worst possible start to a sentence. When Jenn asked if the guys are not ready or not there for the right reasons, Aaron replied, “Both.” Who was he talking about, you ask? We don’t actually know, ’cause he refused to tell Jenn. “I think it’s on you to figure out,” he said. Babe, either spill the tea or don’t. Also, you’re the one who brought a self help book to give to another guy for dramatic flair… and then left the second you got a different opportunity. I fear the pot may be calling the kettles black.
Jenn called him “cruel,” and I wholeheartedly agree. I hope he’s less annoying in fighter pilot school.
