Recent buzzes of tinsel town hints towards Soules again making a mark in reality television and dating Andi Dorfman. "The Bachelorette" Andi Dorfman dumped Soules in the reality show but something is brewing between the two now.

However, "Bachelor" Soules moving on with this, took the time to focus on his farm, in a recent podcast with the HollywoodLife.com, Soules shared his thoughts about dating again.

"I'm ready to date, but there was a while there where dating and I were...I had no interest in dating," Soules said. Soules readily mentioned dating 30 women at "Bachelor" and made it clear that he needed a time off.

"And that's what I'm doing and focusing on things that I love and being patient in the dating world," Soules added.

Soules also further said that, as of now, he is focusing entirely on farming and finding his true love. Soules candidly accepted that he wants to know a person before taking the relationship to another level.

Off the screen, there are rumors of a growing love between Soules and Dorfman. Dorfman sent a pretty hearty message to Soules over Twitter and tweeted saying, "Wishing the happiest of Birthdays to my absolute favorite bourbon drinking farmer. The one and only Chris Soules #KeepCalmAndFarmOn."

It took a while before Chris flirted to Andy right back by saying, "Thank God I'm your favorite Farmer... I'm also probably the only Farmer you know haha."

Fans are speculating a budding love between the two. In a recent report from Star Pulse, it was said that despite what happened in "The Bachelorette," Soules and Dorfman are at very good terms with each other.

Dorfman had given put a very logical reason to dup Soules in "Bachelorette" as she was not ready to spend the rest of her life in Iowa. Dorfman had also stated in the past that it would have been unfair on her part to ask Soules to leave his farm just to be with her.

While talking with US Weekly Andy Dorfman recounted, "I'm definitely on good terms with Chris. He was really a gentleman from my season from day one to the day he left. So, definitely a big fan of his and it was awesome to see him again, too."
