On last night's Dancing With the Stars, the theme was "The Best Year of Your Life," and Bachelor alum Sean Lowe chose 2012, because that was when he met fiancée Catherine Giudici. Doesn't that just warm your cold cynical heart?

He even worked Giudici into his routine, sidling over to her spot in the audience to give her a kiss. Could he be any sweeter? Yes, because when we asked if he choked up after the dance, he was not afraid to cop to the tears.

"I wanted to show my love towards Catherine, and I wanted her to know that that dance was dedicated towards her," he tells E! News' Will Marfuggi. "She thought it was incredible. I think she saw the emotion coming out of me, so she knew it was genuine and sincere, and I knew it was a very special moment for the two of us, so that made it worth it right there."

Who doesn't love a man who isn't afraid to cry over his ladylove?

"It wouldn't be the first time I did it on TV either," Lowe jokes. "[Catherine] gives me 10s every Monday night, despite what the judges give me, she always gives me a 10. She is really proud, most supportive person on my side, that's for sure."
