Audiences were shocked on Sunday when Alyssa, 35, insulted Duncan, 36, at a commitment party by saying he wasn’t prioritizing her, before storming off set and leaving him to confront relationship experts alone.
Alyssa is the worst. Someone wrote that Duncan tries too hard and is very nice. Another chimed in: “She doesn’t deserve Duncan.” It’s too good for her.
It comes after Alyssa broke down in tears before walking out of the commitment party on Sunday.
The Utah-born executive assistant became emotional after Duncan admitted her expectations of him were “worrying.”
Alyssa said she felt Duncan didn’t make her feel like she was a “priority” during the couples’ retreat because he hadn’t been in touch with her all day.
Fans flocked to Twitter to show their support for Duncan, with many noting that his friendly, upbeat personality made him perfect for dating shows like The Bachelor as he has a larger pool of women to choose from.
“We’re in a good position considering the pullback has been a little difficult for us,” she said.
Duncan then explained to the experts why he thought Alyssa was upset with him.
I don’t think Alyssa was bothered by (the lack of contact with her). It’s a deeply rooted problem about being vulnerable and a single mom. (Her expectations) are definitely a concern, he said.
Their relationship was further strained by the couple’s exchange experiment presented on Monday, in which participants were tasked with exchanging partners for the weekend.
Viewers said it was hard because of his encounter with Alyssa, and insisted he deserved the chance to meet someone who was right for him.

The pair’s chemistry was apparently apparent to the entire cast, according to reports new idea.
Their attraction was so obvious that the producers started talking about it behind the scenes in hopes that a “new couple” would emerge.
