Eviebloom wrote:Just my thoughts but I think Ben had the strongest connection with Becca and Lauren B.  I mean the real, I could marry this woman and she could fit into my life type of connection.  But Lauren B. was the only one he loved.  I think he sent Becca home earlier to not make her any more hurt, because he did not want to grow more relationships any deeper.  He is intrigued by Caila, and thinks she is beautiful and classy but that love spark just not happening.  Amanda is very sweet, he likes her very much, but that is it... Emily is fun and easy for Ben to have around.  JoJo, is like a best friend to Ben, more like a buddy, fun to have in your friend group kind of girl for him.  I wonder if TPTB told Ben, you need to reassure some of these girls, to keep them on the show, because the relationship with Lauren B. was just too obvious.  Even Becca told Ben that they could all see his connection to Lauren B.  Of course the show will keep everyone wondering!!! :cutesmile!:

From reactions to Caila's totally nonsensical comments to Olivia's eventual departure from the show, watching the Internet's reactions to the show is almost as good as watching the show itself!

I saw no one mentioned that Lauren, JoJo, and Ben were in their own corner on the boat having a convo while the other girls were doing they're own thing on the other side of the boat as they were approaching the pigs.

I am actually looking forward to the WTA to see if Ben and/or the women confront Leah.
I also want to see Olivia there as well
I think the most revealing statement from Ben was about the difficulty of dating so many women at a time and making sure they are happy.  He's a good guy who actually cares, which is what made the season so hard for him.  Also the comment he made about not picking Olivia on the 2 on 1 - something about it being hard to let go of the one he was so attracted too at first.  It sounds like that is why he kept her around for so long.
I bet it was this episode that made him want to quit the show.

Question - who's getting married on Sunday's show?

  I did notice that. I remember thinking Ben would have been just as happy to stay there all day!


On another note, being there is talk about the lead, do you think Becca has a chance at all?
