Ben Higgins - Bachelorette 11 - *Spoilers - Sleuthing* - Discussion #2

loveactually9 wrote:I want him to be The Bachelor not for his sake, but for mine. So I can see him on TV. It's selfish but I'm no angel

He stood up for JJ, while his best friend and his fiance keep cracking gay jokes about him like it's 2002. He refused to drink and seemed uncomfortable with the attention, which reminds me of Sean at his MTA. I also felt like he handled the Nick situation the best out of all the guys.

I think that people's issue with Ben is that we just don't know that much about him. The fact that he himself said that he felt like an outsider when he was with Kaitlyn/Shawn in the room, slept on a cot while Shawn got the king bed, and still told Kaitlyn he loved her? I don't know...either he's the nicest, most forgiving guy in the world or he was playing the game. I think it's probably a little bit of both. I still think that Ben would handle this role with a lot more integrity than the past two Bachelor leads have.
