The Bachelorette host Chris Harrison insists JoJo Fletcher said goodbye to men she never thought she could say goodbye to, Chase McNary being one of them.

"We all saw how [Jordan Rodgers] and [Robby Hayes]'s overnight dates went, and it is clear, at least now, that JoJo has feelings for both of them that are irreversible," Harrison wrote in his Yahoo! TV blog. "And it seemed as if Chase was going to further complicate things for JoJo."

McNary was offered a Fantasy Suite date invitation in Monday night's episode only to be unexpectedly rejected by Fletcher before the cameras left them alone. McNary took a leap of faith and confessed his love to the Bachelorette, but she realized in that moment she didn't feel the same way and therefore sent him packing.

The way it was shown on television, Rodgers and Hayes' overnight Fantasy Suite dates with the Bachelorette were filmed before McNary's. Harrison therefore suggests the deck might've been stacked against McNary before his special date in Thailand even began.

"[JoJo] already really knew she was falling madly in love with two men, and that was something she never thought would happen," Harrison said.

"Part of me wonders if JoJo accidentally closed herself down with Chase because she already knew she couldn't say goodbye to either Robby or Jordan. We may never know. She may never know."

Harrison elaborated how it's possible Fletcher might've unintentionally sabotaged her relationship with McNary, a 27-year-old medical sales representative from Denver, CO.

"The heart works in mysterious ways, and sometimes the mind overrides the heart and tries to protect you by not letting anyone in. Was this the case with Chase?" Harrison wrote in his blog.

Right when McNary was eliminated, he was very angry and made it known Fletcher had chosen the worst moment to break his heart. However, after McNary got some time to reflect on his exit, he apologized to Fletcher for the way he acted and patched things up so the pair could leave on cordial terms.

"Sometimes during a breakup, you say things you don't want to say and sometimes you know you made a mistake. Chase felt that way, and I'm glad he got the opportunity to express his kindness and gratitude to JoJo before he flew home to America," Harrison said.

"Chase is a great guy, and it would be so unfortunate if someone viewed him otherwise just because of a few angry moments."

Before starring on The Bachelorette, Fletcher didn't even understand how it was possible for Ben Higgins to love both herself and Lauren Bushnell on The Bachelor. But walking a mile in Higgins' shoes clearly opened her eyes.
