The Bachelor star Peter Weber has been taking a lot of heat this season for his bizarre dating decisions, and he admits hes cringed a bit when hes watching the episodes.

Weber aka Pilot Pete recently appeared on former Bachelor lead Nick Vialls podcast to explain the unexpected challenges hes faced while trying to find love on the ABC dating show.

One big hurdle: rewatching his behavior on TV.

Its a lot harder watching this back for me. ... Its way harder than I ever thought it would be, Weber admitted.

Throughout the season, Weber has favored contestants who seem more ready to get into stupid fights and crying jags rather than stable women who are legitimately trying to settle down.

Weber is aware of how hes coming across on TV, but offered this caveat that will surely ring true for anyone who have ever tried to woo 30 people at once.

Im making decisions in the moment based off the information I have, he said. Im not making dumb decisions on purpose. I know everyone thinks I am and everyone thinks Im being indecisive. And yeah, there was a lot of indecision, but thats what you get when you date so many women at once.

Weber has been obsessed with making sure the women vying to become a successful Instagram influencer for his affections are lets say it all together there for the right reasons.

If they didnt want to be there, I didnt want them there, he said. I only want someone here that actually wants to pursue something with me.

Cosmopolitan writer Starr Bowenback suggested that his hope that all 30 women went on the show just to win his heart may be a bit unrealistic.

Does he really believe that any of the women would dip out and pass up on their chance to be on national television??? she wrote.

Webers choices such as sending one woman home based solely on comments made by another contestant only to bring her back again and then send her home again have led to many people calling him the worst Bachelor ever.

As a result, Weber told E! News last week that hes definitely getting some tough skin now, but isnt enjoying all the animosity hes getting.

I understand that theres a lot of drama drama right now and things are kind of crazy, but I do think its a little ... its too bad a lot of the criticism and a lot of hate thats kind of been kind of coming out, he added.

Viall understood Webers situation, but couldnt help teasing his fellow Bachelor.

Watching it back, Peter, you love a crier, Viall said.

Weber couldnt argue.

Yeah, I do, he said. You know what, I do.
