"Sean Lowe, this season&amp;apos;s coolly charismatic star of The Bachelor, knows what he wants when it comes to a future spouse. In a recent visit to Us Weekly&amp;apos;s NYC offices, the Dallas native admitted that he wasn&amp;apos;t necessarily able to deliver on what his mother wanted, however.\r\n&amp;quot;For the most part, my family said, &amp;apos;Just be yourself, you&amp;apos;re going to be great,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; he told Us Weekly about his parents&amp;apos; words of wisdom. &amp;quot;But my mom did make it a point to say, &amp;apos;Please limit your hot tub makeout scenes for my sake.&amp;apos; I don&amp;apos;t know if I necessarily held up my end of that bargain, but hopefully mom&amp;apos;s not too embarrassed by what she sees.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nLowe, 29, is already three weeks into his journey to find love on the hit ABC show, and the original pool of 26 women has been narrowed down to 12. But in a season already riddled with drama (Tierra&amp;apos;s tumble down the steps) and in-fighting (Kacie B. was sent home early for tattling on Desiree and Amanda last week), Lowe says he&amp;apos;s trying to be cautious about the women he falls for.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I don&amp;apos;t want a girl that&amp;apos;s self-absorbed,&amp;quot; he says of his ideal gal.\r\n\r\nStill, Lowe says he recognizes that the process is a two-way street, and he&amp;apos;ll have to make some tough decisions about women who might develop feelings for him as well.\r\n&amp;quot;I knew going into it that I was going to have to break some hearts,&amp;quot; he admits. &amp;quot;And I said to myself that if it leads to what hopefully will be a great ending, then I&amp;apos;m okay with it.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m myself, and I&amp;apos;m genuine. and if that comes across as sensitive at times, then I&amp;apos;m okay with that,&amp;quot; he grins.\r\nThe Bachelor airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
