The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - F1 to F4 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

I really hope for Ben's sake she is as infatuated with him as he is with her. She could easily pull a Brooks on him, then he's screwed. The other girls already know what's up.

^^ He's in "the bubble" now. The real relationship starts when the camera stops rolling. I just hope they don't shack up together being devout Christians and all.

Oh I understand that completely. When I'm a fan of the F1, I'm totally cool with it being obvious. When it's someone I don't like, the season draaaaaaaaaaaaaags on and on and I just want it to be over.

Hah, yeah... when I'm not a fan, I don't even watch.. I just read recaps. Oops.

Oh no.

Well things worked out really well fir Des so maybe that's not a bad thing.
The 3 seasons where the lead was not 100 on their f1 at this point turned out the best, actually 4 if you count in Charlie who could not make up his mind even at the FRC yet dated bee for a long time.

I'd hope Whitney or someone else...even Britt, . I just can't get excited about any of these super young girls. Even Ali , who was 25 almost 26 at the time, has said looking back now she was SOO young when she was lead, and not ready to get married. I think yes, a mature 23 year old might be ready to get married but that's usually after being in a relationship.... it's just more believable. I'd just hate to see this show keep getting younger and younger continually. Maybe next year the Bachelor will be 21...

Funny how that works. You would think that if the lead is SURE (granted that his chosen is sure as well), then that would increase his chances of making the relationship work.

The Bachelor: High School Edition. This season seems pretty close to that with how young everone is/looks.

Maybe I'll be wrong, but if Lauren ends up as the spoiled F1, I fear it's going to take all the wind out of the sleuthing sails. If she gets the spoiler as F1 plus what can be seen from her very visible date in Warsaw (or wherever), won't it will lead to very little doubt? Serious question, what will people be interested in trying to figure out at that point?

I will still be interested in sleuthing. I bet the hardcores here will persist!

discuss fashion, cat fights and who is there for the wrong reasons which will be anyone but the spoiled f1.

But seriously unless there is some sort of twist going forward not much. And seeing that once the season starts most will be posting spoiled so it will be just an island of posters convinced that RS got it wrong. Or that their fav will come back at the FRC to claim their rightful place

Which leads have been sure yet still kept it in their pants with the other contestants? It's easy to say it was X all along, but I don't really buy it if they still slept with Y and Z just days before proposing/being proposed to. Or it may have been X, but their feelings surely weren't very strong to be disrespecting them like that. If you're legitimately unsure then sleeping with several people makes a bit more sense.

I don't see Ben getting it on with anyone, at least anyone but Lauren, if he's already head over heels for her. I think if anything THAT will increase their chances.

IMO TPTB will work overtime to plant doubt into Lauren's mind- and Ben's- they will find the one family member on one side or the other to bring up some issue and then tptb with magnify it out of all proportion.... it is their job- to make a TV show, just as it's CH's job to make outlandish statement about thing like "letting his true match go" or something, to try to increase viewers from week to week. These folks are professionals- they'll find a way, ethically or not, to make a tv show.
