The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - NO SPOILERS - Discussion

First off I am loving that we now have different points of view. For such a long time it's just been me and @theKeptGrits on this thread and we pretty much agree on everything  

From the very beginning of the show I had Lauren, JoJo and Becca as my top 3. I saw his connection with L and JJ straight away and as for Becca, well I just like her. His relationship with L has gone from strength to strength, even the Leah moment was just a tiny blip. However, I see his relationship with JJ as having more fits and starts, moments of understanding and connection followed by confusion and uncertainty. If she is F1 it might make their relationship stronger, who knows. But I don't think she is F1.

I don't trust TPTB and their edit - they are sneaky and manipulate the story - I'm still a bit pissed off about the Leah and the black eye situation!

What I do trust, however, is the unaltered footage we've seen and those brilliant screen caps @Ladybug82 put up for us. Awesome job by the way!

The way that Ben looks at Lauren is like he's looking through her eyes to her soul.  I know that does sound overly poetical - but I hope you understand what I mean.

Also that bit in the preview where they are on a boat and he's resting his head on the crook of her neck and she's scratching his scalp (also brilliantly screen capped by Ladybug) - to me that's contentment, that's peace, that's unity and that's acceptance.

And I just don't see that with JoJo sorry.

But it's JMHO!

Just watched the latest preview that Ladybug posted.

I can't even imagine what the surprise would be? That he's still in love with the F2? That he's already broken up with F1? That he and the F1 have sneaked off and got married? My head is spinning!

What does everyone think?

This time I closed my eyes to just listen to the tone, timbre and inflection of the conversation in the bathroom. Does anybody else think that the "I need something from you" sounds like Lauren and the "But you love her too" sounds like JoJo?

They are making it sound like it's all one conversation but what if it's different conversations that they have put together for the preview? Just a thought.
