Otherwise, except when they kiss multiple people at the same cocktail party or on the same group date, I don't care. That is what they are there to do.

Stuck if I remember correctly Jason also used to kiss 'em when he couldn't find anything to say.

Thanks for letting me know. Since I disliked Jason immensely, I skipped his season until FS and finale. So I thankfully missed the majority of his kissing.

Poor old Jason. Caterpillar eyebrows, not much of a conversationalist and sub-par kissing skills. Definitely out-kicked his coverage with Molly.

I don't mind if Ben kisses a bunch of contestants. I just hope he's more of an Arie type kisser. Arie kissing Emily was enough to make your toes curl!

I think they just meant that first episode, b/c of that speech he makes to Lace about not wanting to focus on the physical and just kissing. E! would only have seen the first episode,  so it makes sense they would say that, whereas RS knows more about the whole season.

Are you talking about the E! article on the previous page..? That's the one I'm talking about, and it wasn't the first episode recap. Ben talked to reporters on the phone this morning, and that's what he said.

article:http://www.eonline.com/news/722948/dry-season-why-ben-higgins-is-limiting-the-kissing-and-physical-contact-on-the-bachelor.

So we were right about Amanda, Jubilee, the twins, and Mandi getting intro videos. Not about JoJo and Olivia getting one. Happy Lauren B got one.

The recap made me excited for the premiere! Almost 3 weeks away!

Ah, I think the title is misleading b/c he says the same thing he said to Lace, about wanting to get to know the person and not just focus on the physical aspect. He never actually says he limited the kissing, just that he wanted to hold off on it initially.

So he just holds off on the kissing at first? That's what he means? If they didn't show him kissing Mandi when she was doing her dentist thing, what does that mean exactly in relation to this topic?

From anything I've seen from this franchise, I think Arie leads the pack with his kissing skills.

I really love Ben. He's expresses himself so well.

I loved this answer from Ben.

Reality TV World: Are you definitely looking for a woman to move to Denver, CO, or would you consider relocating? And I know there were concerns at first about you wanting to settle down at your age, but you've made it clear you're ready. However, do you want kids right away?

Ben Higgins: The age thing, I'm actually surprised no one's asked about that yet! But for me to be 26, going on 27, I'm definitely ready to find that person. There's not a question in my mind, and I can say that very confidently.

As far as, am I looking for a woman to move to Denver or not? I mean, I love Denver. It's an incredible place to live and I have roots here now. I have a good friend group here. I would really love if a woman would move to Denver, but I'm not going to force it, and I think I'm still open to whatever state or step is next for us.

If she feels strongly about a certain city or if the woman in my life feels like we need to move away, then I'm open to it. I want to make sure that this is a conversation that happens amongst us and not just me saying, "Yeah, you HAVE to do this."

He seems overly guarded in his answers. Politician-esque. Hope ABC publish the transcript.

He does seem very politician-like in his answers, but I like what he said about the place of residence being a conversation, not something he would demand. I don't get his "as someone going on 27" ...he's still got half a year until he turns 27!

He turns 27 in three months that isn't half a year but yeah.

I mean, he's being professional in a sense, this is kind of a "job" for him. I think he lets us know what we need to, but just enough to leave more to be questioned/discussed.
