"Shawntel Newton experienced her fair share of heartbreak when she was dumped by Brad Womack on The Bachelor in 2010, and the 25-year-old funeral director resurfaced on the ABC series Monday, this time attempting to find love with Ben Flajnik.\r\nTraveling to meet Flajnik, 29, in San Francisco -- where he was wining and dining his 18 remaining bachelorettes -- Newton told Bachelor host Chris Harrison she&amp;apos;d long wondered if Flajnik felt the same way about her that she did about him.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Ben&amp;apos;s everything I want in a guy,&amp;quot; Newton reasoned when she arrived in San Francisco. &amp;quot;If I didn&amp;apos;t do this, I would always think &amp;apos;what if,&amp;apos; and I don&amp;apos;t want to live my life like that. In ways I think this could be a total fairytale, so here I am.&amp;quot;\r\nBarging in on the women during the cocktail party, Newton ruffled more than a few feathers in her attempt to woo Flajnik.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;This bitch walks in, shovels her way into a crowd and I was like, &amp;apos;who are you? We are not friends. Scram, bitch,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; sniped Jaclyn.\r\nBegging Flajnik to take part in the evening&amp;apos;s rose ceremony, Newton put it all on the line as his angry bachelorettes looked on in horror.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I want to be at the rose ceremony and if you are willing to give me a rose, I&amp;apos;d be really happy,&amp;quot; Newton told Flajnik. &amp;quot;If you&amp;apos;re not, don&amp;apos;t give me a rose and we&amp;apos;ll end it now. But I feel like you have more feelings.&amp;quot;\r\nWhen Newton took her place at the rose ceremony, none of Flajnik&amp;apos;s bachelorettes were more affected than frontrunner Courtney, who vowed to pack her bags if Newton got her way.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m pissed. it feels very unfair to me,&amp;quot; she fumed. &amp;quot;This isn&amp;apos;t what I signed up for.&amp;quot;\r\nIn the end, Courtney received Flajnik&amp;apos;s first rose, and he was forced to give his final rose to either Erika, Jaclyn, or Newton.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I appreciate you coming all this way to find love, but...I just can&amp;apos;t hand out this final rose tonight,&amp;quot; Flajnik admitted, opting to send all three women packing in the interest of fairness. (Contestant Brittney voluntarily left the series Monday, deciding the Bachelor process just wasn&amp;apos;t for her.)\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;There was a connection there with Ben and I and I think he just wasn&amp;apos;t being man enough to accept that,&amp;quot; Newton said after her dismissal. &amp;quot;That&amp;apos;s great that he&amp;apos;s trying to be fair, but this is about someone you&amp;apos;re going to be with for the rest of your life. I don&amp;apos;t think fair comes into play. I just feel so dumb.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
