"If you feel like you're in love with me, it doesn't make sense, to me, to sleep with somebody else," Susie told Clayton.

Clayton went on to say that he was "more in love" with Susie than with the other women, but that he had wanted to explore all of the other relationships before he could decide who to pick. While he wished that Susie had told him that this was a dealbreaker for her in advance, she didn't want to give him an ultimatum. The damage was already done, and though Clayton wanted them to talk out their issues, Susie knew that she could not move forward.Article continues below advertisement After an emotional and tense exchange, Clayton and Susie separated.

"I'm just going to take that and move forward in my life, and realize that I had to go through this."Article continues below advertisement We’re speechless Thanks for watching #TheBachelor pic.twitter.com/ckaHdiAMoR— The Bachelor (@BachelorABC) March 9, 2022 Before Susie got in the car, Clayton expressed his disappointment in her one last time.
