"Even if fan favorite (and new Bachelorette) Ali Fedotowsky hadn&amp;apos;t left the show to save her job, Bachelor Jake Pavelka says he is confident he still would have popped the question to Vienna Girardi.\r\nPavelka, 32, said on ABC&amp;apos;s Good Morning America that he is &amp;quot;sure&amp;quot; that things wouldn&amp;apos;t have played out differently if Fedotowsky, 25, had stayed.\r\n\r\nGirardi, 23, admitted &amp;quot;it was difficult to see him with Ali&amp;quot; on the show.  &amp;quot;He had a connection with Ali.&amp;quot;\r\nShe said she always viewed Fedotowsky and the other women as competition -- including Rozlyn Papa, who was booted from the show after having an alleged physical relationship with a male producer.\r\n\r\nGirardi said she saw the two &amp;quot;cuddling on the couch together,&amp;quot; and it was  &amp;quot;extremely awkward.&amp;quot;\r\nBut she said she never told Pavelka because &amp;quot;I never wanted to go to him and say something bad about the other women.&amp;quot;  She said her experience on the show was like a &amp;quot;roller coaster.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAsked if it was a relief to be with Pavelka in the end, she replied: &amp;quot;Yeah, it is.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
