Although Juan Pablo Galavis is done with "The Bachelor" and in a relationship with Nikki Ferrell, people still have their opinions on him. Amongst them is Clare Crawley, who was runner-up in the soul mate competition, and "The Bachelor" host Chris Harrison.

Crawley has not spoken to Galavis since the ABC show ended. Still, she has one message for the Venezuelan for whom she used to yearn.

"Treat a woman how you want someone to treat your daughter," she told Galavis via an interview with Extra last week.

Despite not winning and being hurt by by mean comments made by Galavis during the Final Rose Ceremony, Crawley does not regret being on "The Bachelor."

"I truly have no hard feelings," the former contestant said. "It was an experience and an experience that I am grateful for and thankful for. ... I wouldn't be feeling the way I feel today, and I wouldn't have a little bit more strength than I had before."

In fact, Crawley said she is now a source of strength for others.

"I've gotten thousands and thousands of letters from 14-year-old girls and other young women who say, 'Thank you for letting me know it's cool to stand up for yourself, that it's okay and it's good to stand up for yourself,'" she shared. "That alone, for me, just having one letter, is amazing because it's taken me 33 years to do that."

When asked if she's found a new bachelor to love, Crawley would only say that she's "just having a good time."

Meanwhile, Harrison still has some negative views on Galavis, saying that he plays the victim.

"He was one of those guys you'll never kind of understand the depths of him," Harrison told Huffington Post. "Nobody could ever have the problems he has had, and no matter what happened, what situation, he was the victim."

Harrison admitted that Galavis' Venezuelan background did create a obstacle for the Bachelor but said that doesn't excuse him completely.

"I know culturally there was ... a divide and language barrier. ... But, with that said, he knew what was going on," Harrison explained. "He knew the situation. He knew the show. He knew what he had signed up for because he had been a part of it before. ... He really wanted to control all of it, and you can't. On 'The Bachelor,' to be successful, you have to let go."

Regardless of people's opinions on the controversial reality star, Galavis and Ferrell said they are happy together.
