1. Contestants have to take a comprehensive psychological exam before appearing on the show.

2. The women have to buy all of their own dresses for the show — ABC only provides dresses for the two finalists to wear during the finale.

3. As a result, some contestants have "cashed in their 401(k)s" before going on The Bachelor.

4. But when you move into the mansion, you get a gift bag full of bikinis, clothing, jewelry and beauty products.

5. The women also only get professional styling done on the first night and for the finale. On the rest of the nights, they do their own hair and makeup.

6. Those limo exit gimmicks, as well as the order the girls step, are planned by producers.

7. Couples who get engaged on the show have to stay together for two years in order to keep the Neil Lane-sponsored diamond ring. If couples wish to sell the ring after that time period, they have to provide ABC with advance written notice.

8. Some couples use their fantasy suite time to just talk. (Really!) After all, it's the first time they get to spend with each other away from the cameras.

9. No one actually eats on the one-on-one dinners because the sounds would get picked up by the microphones. Instead, contests eat at the hotel beforehand.

10. During filming, the contestants aren't allowed to have cellphones, computers, magazines, music, or even books. They ARE encouraged to have plenty of alcohol.
