Bachelor Sean Lowe reveals his quirky side — and sense of humor — in 140 characters or less

We all know where to find the blond, blue-eyed Sean Lowe on Monday evenings. But if you'd like to get up close and personal with this season'sBachelor 24/7, then look no further than Twitter.

Lowe's Twitter account shows the Dallas hunk's quirkier side (think hipster glasses and dogs in turtlenecks). Plus it allows the public to see beyond the chiseled abs and whitened teeth that command so much screen time on ABC.

Turns out, our hometown boy has a sense of humor about his bachelor-ness. We wonder, however, if his attitude will change when the girls tell all March 4 at 7 pm.

In the meantime, here are a few of our favorite @SeanLowe09 tweets:

"I'm crazy about you. You have so many amazing qualities. I can see us together in the future." - Me talking to my sushi right now.

For future reference: When someone says "I love you" don't respond with "I love hearing you say that".

After seeing these clips, I'm having second thoughts about sending Tierra home. Is it too late to bring her back?

Whatever you do, don't take a drink after every time I say I'm crazy about someone. You won't make it out alive.

If it looks like I got softer... shut up. That's what no workouts and hotel food will do to ya. #TheBachelor
