What is Katie Thurston looking for in a man?
Her Bachelor bio read that she wants a “mature man who has ambitions to succeed in everything he does, both personally and professionally."
"Nothing turns her off more than someone who sits around playing video games all day or a man who tries to kiss her at the inopportune moment … it’s all about creating the right vibe with Katie!"
However, she recently acknowledged that "time is short" and that she realized she had to kiss on the first date in order to use her time "wisely."
"You can't be okay with me possibly getting engaged in two months but not kissing on the first date. I've got to use my time wisely!" she joked.
