Why do people expect an engagement at the end of The Bachelor/Bachelorette?

Anonymous

Technically "The Bachelor/Bachelorette" has been dating multiple people up until the finale. I don't know anyone who'd actually be okay with this if it wasn't a show where they actually have to. I don't think you can actually expect that you're ready to marry at the end of the show. So why is that such a big deal to them? Maybe that person is your soul mate, but you can't actually know for sure until you try dating in the real world.
