Indecisive reality hunk Brad Womack, who led two women to the finale of The Bachelor only to not pick either one of them, tells Ellen DeGeneres (who called him a “jerk”) about his decision today.

Brad on why he went home alone: “What I want people to understand is, I know no one is buying this, that it was just as difficult for me. … I knew I was going to put myself in the hot seat by telling both ladies goodbye. But I give you my word: I thought I had made a decision full of integrity by not giving a false promise, especially to Deanna, because we did have something, but not enough to pursue the relationship. I did not take the easy way out. In fact, I took the tough way out in order to show these women respect, in my opinion.”

Brad on if he would ever do it again: “I would do it again, simply because I believe in the fairy tale romance. I am so disappointed that it didn’t happen to me. Of course I’d do it again. Never in a million years would I expect the backlash. I’m having to develop a pretty tough skin. If you’re asking me if I’m going on TV again, never again in my life.”

Brad on whether he’s currently dating anyone: “No I’m not dating at all. I’d like to clear up that rumour. What people don’t understand is that I’m going through a break-up as well. I truly am. I haven’t even thought about dating. I’m keeping to myself. I think if I asked a woman out, she might throw a drink in my face right now. I’ll try to make light of a very tough situation, but I’m not ready to move on.”
