Lauren Bushnell - Bachelor 20 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

ITA. I would think Ben would know from the season he was on before becoming TB that mixing sex into the equation is never a good idea, especially if he already knows who his F1 is. I don't see him doing anything with non-F1 girls other than talking on FDs.

Even though I currently think that Ben is as perfect as can be, I still wouldn't put it past him to sleep with at least one other girl during the fantasy suite dates

Have we had input from posters that know Lauren?  I would like to know more about her personality and how they think she fits with Ben.  It looks like Ben is smitten with her based on what we have seen of him this past year.  It would be interesting to know more about her.  IMO. :Nod:

I've heard so many stories that I don't make predictions about that anymore. People like Jason, Trista, and Ashley weren't really players and they (allegedly) slept with multiple people. Ben did have a pre-filming flirtation going on with two women, so it's possible that he could be enjoying the attention. I don't really care and don't feel like it's my business, as long as his F1 is okay with it. JMO.

Please provide proof. I don't recall confirmation he was flirting with anyone.

Oh, sorry, GA should have said supposedly or allegedly. I was just referring to the Cassandra and Tenley rumors. Didn't mean anything by it!

Really. ^^ I flirt with men. I'm not dead. But that sure doesn't mean I sleep with them, because I flirt with them. :shocked!:

Yea I can understand why someone like Jason slept with Molly and Melissa...because he was so completely torn and confused about it. But it just would be really strange if he was thinking in his head "No way I'm picking you" while sleeping with someone else, it's kind of like cheating and dishonest IMO. Not what anyone should be doing days before getting engaged IMO. If he ends up being torn between 2 in the end....I suppose. I know it's the show setup and others have done it, just seems pretty icky.

No one can force you to have sex. Not even the producers. They can imply stuff in the edit but once those doors are closed the time is between the lead and the contestant.

IMO MF has hinted at way more sex in the FS than what really took place. Much like teenage boys like to brag about their non-exist any conquests.

I hope the f2 just say no.

Except when TPTB needed to audibly "show" the viewers Kaitlyn's extra curricular activities with Nick via the boom mic. She told some interviewer that they removed their mics.

ETA: Want to add here—and opening the door a crack and filming mirror shots of the lead and her F1 in bed on FD (Kaitlyn and Shawn).

I flirt with my TV boyfriends all the time!!

Maybe this has been discussed before and if not what are Lauren's religious leanings ? Do they appear to line up with Bens ?

I can't remember which thread, but it's been mentioned somewhere that her family attends a Christian church regularly, and her sister Mollie also posted a photo on Instagram on Easter mentioning that they "know what the day is truly about" (or something along those lines) so I would say her beliefs line up with his.
