Nick Viall tearfully said goodbye to six women on Monday's episode of The Bachelor as he emotionally admitted: 'I don't know if I can keep doing this.'

The 36-year-old reality show veteran sent home Jasmine, Whitney and Danielle L. after a string of disastrous dates on the tropical island of St. Thomas after dismissing Josephine, Jaimi and Alexis during a rose ceremony.

Nick told the cameras he does not know if he is capable of finding love on the show.

Having doubts: Nick Viall expressed doubt about finding a wife on Monday's episode of The Bachelor

The revelations stunned the six remaining women as he broke down crying and said he was worried his relationships with them also would not work out.

The sixth week of the show kicked off with Taylor confronting Nick about choosing Corrine over her last week in New Orleans after their two-on-one date.

'I think it is absolute b******t that I am going home because Nick believed Corrine's lies. I think she is a manipulative b****,' said the 23-year-old mental health counselor.

Corrine then told Nick that she felt she 'was already falling' for him as they drank champagne together.

Getting emotional: Nick got emotional while sending contestants packing

Taylor however was not taking the defeat lying down and told the cameras that Nick needed to send Corrine home instead - before finding the pair and confronting them.

'Why is she here? What, is she gonna try to convince Nick that I'm a lair?' said Corrine as Taylor asked to talk to Nick privately.

'You were flat out lied to today. You've been manipulated and lied to,' said Taylor.

Record straight: Taylor after being sent home returned to warn Nick about Corinne

The cameras flashed back to Corrine drinking on her own and muttering: 'I hate her.'

'I'm assuming the reason why I'm no longer in this experience anymore with you is because my character was called into judgment and that you think I'm a bully and a mean girl and I called her stupid,' said Taylor.

'She is making me look like I bullied her. I want you to open your eyeballs because I am not the only one saying this about Corrine,' Taylor told him.

Much appreciated: Nick told Taylor that he appreciated her message but stuck with Corinne

During last week's episode Corrine claimed that Taylor called her stupid, when in fact she asked if Corrine had 'the emotional intelligence' to be with Nick.

Nick told her he appreciated her coming to him to share her concerns.

'I'm hearing what you're saying. I have nothing but the utmost respect for you,' he told her.

Utmost respect: Taylor was told by Nick that he doesn't think she's a bully

'I don't have respect for bullies. I don't think you're a bully. I appreciate your sincerity and I appreciate you coming back,' Nick told her.

Nick then told Taylor that 'it's not over and I still have things to figure out.'

As they hugged goodbye, Taylor told him: 'She is an evil, lying, annoying b****.'

All alone: Corinne was left all alone at the dinner table after Taylor took Nick away

Nick then returned to Corrine and assured her that his decision was not based on what Taylor had said but on 'where my heart is.'

'As much as Taylor is great she is not the person I am supposed to be with,' said Nick before kissing Corrine.

He then told the cameras that he 'saw potential in Corrine and that is worth exploring.'

Drinking up: The Florida business owner drank wine while holding her rose

'What I learned tonight is that cats have nine lives and b*****s have two,' said Corrine smugly.

'I am a good person until you give me a reason not to be and never call me a liar in front of my boyfriend. I look into his eyes and I see that it is the real thing,' she added.

The remaining 12 girls then attended the rose ceremony at a spectacular New Orleans mansion, with Corrine, Danielle M and Rachel already possessing roses.

Rose ceremony: The ladies lined up for a rose ceremony as Nick thinned the field

Show host Chris Harrison surprised the women by telling them that there would be no cocktail party as Nick knew 'exactly what he wanted to do.'

At the rose ceremony Nick told them that he had woken up thinking about all the relationships he had and he did not want to waste anyone's time.

Nick then handed out roses to Kristina, Raven, Vanessa, Danielle L. and Jasmine leaving just one remaining, which he gave to Whitney.

Smells so sweet: Corine was glad that her nemesis Taylor was no longer around

That meant it was the end of the road for Josephine, Jaimi and Alexis.

'This is really the worst. I hoped I would be in the last spot with Nick but I am not, he wasn't feeling it,' said tearful 28-year-old Jaimi.

Nick then told the remaining nine women that they were heading to the island of St. Thomas.

Island destination: Nick told the remaining ladies they were headed to St. Thomas

Kristina got the first one on one date and the pair flew off together in a seaplane, with Nick telling the cameras he was 'excited as I am curious to see what this date does for our relationship.'

Jasmine was not happy at missing out and tearfully told the cameras that Nick's decision 'sucked' for her and questioned if he was even thinking about her.

'It is hard, I didn't think it would be like this at all, it sucks,' she admitted.

Getting frustrated: Jasmine was getting frustrated after being skipped for a one on one date

On the date Kristina told Nick that she was adopted and that she had a sister back in Russia and missed her own culture.

'I get the sense it is a huge part of who she is and hopefully she will share that with me,' said Nick before the pair took a dip in the ocean.

'I am going to work hard to knock down these walls. She is someone I have very strong feelings for,' Nick said.

Opening up: Kristina opened up to Nick about being adopted from an orphanage in Russia

Back at the hotel Corrine relaxed and had the staff bring her food and drink by the pool.

Kristina, 24, told the cameras she had enjoyed her 'nice and comfortable' date with Nick as the pair went out for dinner.

She then told him more about her family life, revealing that there was not a lot of food growing up in Russia and that she had to eat lipstick to survive.

Hands on: Nick and Kristina enjoyed a dip in the water together

Kristina told Nick she was kicked out at the age of five and lived in an orphanage for seven years before being adopted by an American family at the age of 12.

'Hearing what Kristina has been through breaks your heart,' said Nick.

'She seems to have such a mature grasp and appreciation for life. She is incredible,' Nick said.

Personal service: Corinne liked the personal service at their hotel in St. Thomas

Nick told her that he admired her strength as he gave her a rose after their 'amazing' time together and the pair kissed as they danced to a steel band.

'Kristina has everything in a woman that I would want in my life and to fall in love with. I would be lucky if Kristina was the person that I spent the rest of my life with,' he said.

Back at the hotel Rachel, Raven, Vanessa, Corrine, Danielle M, and Jasmine got the group date card, leaving Whitney and Danielle L behind.

Group date: Nick and the ladies took a boat ride to a beach for their group date

The group took a boat ride to the beach where they hung out in bikinis and played games but that wasn't enough for Jasmine, who continued to gripe about her lack of a one on one date with Nick.

After drinks the group played beach volleyball and the fun did not last long as the women all battled for Nick's attention and complained to the cameras about their lack of time with him.

Rachel told the cameras that she was not going to compete for Nick's attention and that she felt she might as well go home, a feeling that was echoed by the other frustrated women, with Vanessa and Danielle M left in tears.

Beach time: The ladies played games on the beach with Nick to start the group date

'I thought this entire date was just going to be fun and relaxed, but at the same time, how can my relationship get to another level when all Nick is experiencing is me being competitive at a volleyball game,' Vanessa told the cameras.

'I'm just fed up with it. I'm fed up with having to compete for time, I'm fed up with having to get his attention.

'And the fact that I have to go through these next few weeks having to deal with all the competition and all the gossip and all the talk, it's so annoying, and I've been so patient,' Vanessa said.

Tired of it: Vanessa admitted that she was getting sick of competing for Nick's attention

Nick admitted that the group date didn't meet his expectations.

'I think this idea of having a fun, relaxing day backfired on me, it was pretty much a disaster,' Nick told the cameras.

'It almost feels like a wasted day. Even worse, it's not only a day that not only didn't bring me closer to any of the women but maybe brought us further apart,' he lamented.

Wasted day: Nick developed a reputation as a tool during his two stints on The Bachelorette and his season on Bachelor In Paradise

Later that night Nick apologized to the women before he stepped away with 31-year-old Rachel.

She told him that she did not care for group dates or the competition they created and had felt that she wanted to leave the show.

'I was not trying to come here tonight,' she told him as he told her he did not want her to stay if she did not want to.

Being honest: Rachel admitted that she didn't like the group dates

'Clearly I am only here for you, this makes me very uncomfortable,' she said.

Back at the house Jasmine became increasingly frustrated at not having a one on one date with Nick and told the girls she 'wanted to punch him in the face' when he chose other women.

Nick finally invited Jasmine to talk and things did not go well as she told him she was 'confused' by him.

Too much: Jasmine was consumed by her frustration after feeling overlooked

'I like you a lot but I feel that I am being overlooked,' she told him.

'I am here do you not see me, I know you see me, I am here. It does suck, it sucks not having a one on one and that is what is bothering me as I really do care about you and see a future with you,' Jasmine told him.

'I feel that I have been the realest person in this whole thing. I did not come here to play games or go on vacations,' she told him.

Checking out: Nick started checking out as Jasmine went off on him

Nick looked unimpressed when she put her hand on his throat and told him that when he did not chose her it made her 'want to f***ing choke you so bad.'

He told her he was glad she shared it as she again put her hands on his throat and asked if he wanted her to show him.

'No, not even a little,' he said seriously.

Choke move: Jasmine wanted to choke Nick but he wanted no part of it

'I didn't have the best conversation with Jasmine and that is really disappointing. In fact it was actually a bit awkward and made it clear how distant my relationship with Jasmine is,' he told the cameras.

Nick then told Jasmine that he did not share her feelings and that it was 'time to say goodbye.'

He then walked her off the beach and put her in a car.

So long: Nick was wished good luck by Jasmine as she departed

'Jasmine and I had good start but over the last few weeks things have fallen flat,' he admitted as she told the cameras she had never been given a chance by Nick.

'I don't really think he knows what he wants. I don't think this is going to work for him,' she said as Nick admitted he was feeling 'beatdown and discouraged' by the day.

Back at the hotel Corrine described the day as 'an emotional rollercoaster' and it was revealed Raven got the rose.

Emotional rollercoaster: Corinne was feeling the emotions of the day also

Nick then took Whitney and Danielle L on a helicopter ride to a beach where a couch was perched at the water's edge, before spending time with both the women.

He told Danielle L that they had 'chemistry' and a great connection and she told him that she would be happy to bring him home to her family.

In the middle of their chat he got up and went back over to Whitney and told her she would be leaving as he did not feel he could give her a rose.

Sent home: Whitney was sent home first during the two on one date

He and Danielle claimed back into the helicopter and left Whitney on her own on the beach.

'I did not think I would be going home today, especially compared with Danielle. I just did not see that coming,' she complained as she watched them fly away.

Over dinner Danielle told Nick that she felt she was falling in love with him, which led to an awkward and uncomfortable silence from Nick.

Tears flowing: The dramatic departure left Whitney in tears

Tough call: Nick was not feeling a love connection on his double date

'That's the second time I've had someone say they are falling in love with me and knowing that my heart feels differently,' an emotional Nick told the cameras.

'Um, that is not a fun feeling. What do you say to someone who tells you they are falling in love with you and all your heart is telling you, no. Seems messed up.'

Nick told her he had wanted her to be the one but that he could not giver her the rose and apologized.

'I hope I am not screwing this all up,' Nick said before putting her in a car home.

Third not a charm: Danielle also was sent home by Nick after the two on one date

'I feel like he is making a mistake. Maybe I just wasn't perfect. I don't know if he is scared or over analyzing the relationships he has with everyone. You can't make someone love you,' Danielle told the cameras as she drove away.

Nick beat himself up for sending her home and kicked himself for not feeling the same things she did.

Back at the hotel the six remaining women were shocked when Danielle's case was removed from the hotel.

Crying time: The tears were flowing after Danielle was sent home

Waiting game: The other six ladies waited around while Nick was on his double date

'It is tough right now. I can't help but wonder after tonight, as much as I want this to work for me, it is not. That I want it too bad that I am trying too hard to make it work,' he said as walked through the dark streets alone.

'I don't know if this is going to work out or if this is the time, as much as I want it to be.'

Nick then burst into tears as he spoke to the remaining women about his day.

Trying hard: Nick wondered if he was trying too hard

'I just want to be honest. I came in so optimistic about this thing but after today ended I felt like a hit a low and my biggest fear right now is that the same thing is going to happen with you guys,' he said.

'I really want this to work out but I want it to be real and right and right now I feel terrified that is not going to happen. I don't know if I can keep doing this,' Nick said.

In a scene from next week Corrine tries to pep Nick up as she paid him a late night visit and boasted to the cameras about her sexual prowess: 'My heart is gold, but my vajeen is platinum.'
