I’m a Georgia girl and a ‘Bachelorette’ fanatic. Here’s who I want Charity to choose.

Season 20 of “The Bachelorette” features a Columbus, Georgia local.

It’s almost final rose time and this season has had no shortage of amazing men and solid connections for our Georgia Peach.

But which of the final three men will she choose?

Charity Lawson — from Columbus, Georgia — is about to choose her forever person. Will it be Joey, Xavier or Dotun?

As we are all waiting to see who gets the final rose and places a ring on her finger, I’ll tell you who I hope Charity chooses.

Who do I want her to pick?

I think it’s pretty obvious from my other stories (if you’ve been keeping up) that I want Charity to pick Dotun. He is just perfect for her and I could see them having a wonderfully happy and healthy relationship.

Why should Charity Lawson choose Dotun?

He values family

Dotun relates to Charity on another level because, above all, he values his family and loves his parents dearly.

We have seen him open up to Charity about his parents moving to the United States from Nigeria and not having a lot of money.

“We came here with nothing, but my parents took on whatever job they could,” Dotun said in his Bachelorette” intro. “They’ve done really well to give me a life that I’m happy to live, so it’s been a humbling experience.”

Charity also values her family. She has said her parents and their marriage are very important to her; and she has also expressed several times that her brother, Nehemiah, is her best friend.

He’s smart

Charity attended Auburn for her undergraduate and graduate degrees. She got her Master’s Degree in clinical mental health counseling and is now working as a trauma counselor for children.

Dotun has a Master’s Degree in human nutrition and functional medicine and a and bachelor’s degree in nutrition and food Science.

He has virtually no red flags

Dotun is probably the only man I’ve seen on the show this season that has no red flags. He is romantic, vulnerable with his feelings, kind, smart, extremely good looking and is good to Charity.

I have no bad things to say about him. All green flags here.

Charity loves her times with Dotun

We see this because she gave Dotun two back to back one-on-one dates. My girl literally couldn’t get enough.

They went from jumping off a bridge together to running a race together in New Orleans. Talk about a whirlwind romance.

Why not one of the other men?

Listen, I love Joey. He’s just so cute with his puppy dog eyes. It’s giving Golden Retriever energy.

But like Joey’s uncle has expressed, are we sure he’s all in with Charity and not just wearing rose colored glasses? He seems like he falls hard and forgets everything else.

And Xavier. He really showed us a side to him that we haven’t even known about. I mean, the knitting date was beyond sweet.

But the question is: is he ready? And that shouldn’t be on Charity’s mind; rather, she needs someone who is completely sure about her.

Charity, if you’re reading this, please tell me it’s Dotun.

Guess we will all have to find out together. See the rest of Charity’s journey unfold on Monday, August 7 at 8 p.m.
