Jillian Harris admits that she wasn't the ideal Bachelorette candidate.

But she sounds pleased with her decision to star on the show, as the Canadian cutie tells OK! that she's found the right man. Here's what else she had to say:

On becoming The Bachelorette: I'm a super-real and down-to-earth person, so I understand that it's a crazy and unrealistic way to meet somebody, but I thought I would give it a try.

On choosing the right man: I'm a firm believer that I made the right decision. The relationship failing is a fear, but I can't control that. If it happens, it happens. I will be in the same place that I was before this, which is a great place.

On moving on from Jason Mesnick: I knew pretty early on that he had chosen Melissa [Rycroft] and because she had become one of my good friends – you know how it is when you might think somebody is cute and then they start dating your friend and you get over it right away? So that helped, because I was so happy for [them].
