Seems he slept with Caila and when confronted lied about being unsure where his heart was at that time. A couple of days later he tell Laure he has been in love with her for a while, and then hos blog reads that Lauren's family could see he was in lve with her at her HTD. He just lies and lies so he continues to look perfect.
He will probably tell Jojo he wasnt sure until the end too. What a tool. The only difference between Ben and JPG is that he is better with words and tempers his false promises with sweetness

No more of a tool than Kaitlyn was... And she's still with her F1.

Out of all the kisses and explosions of love and everything in between...this quote from Ben makes me question his 26 year old self. We're the same age but even i know thats IMPOSSIBLE BEN.) Ben is in no way shape or form ready to propose to neither jojo or lauren. Going into the last week I hope all Ben did was prey and really analyze this 'bubble' he's surrounded in. He's said multiple times in interviews post show and to laurens family if he gets down on one knee and proposes at the end of this-it will be because hes fully committed and really ready. I look forward to the proposal.

I don't know if I'm the only one asking myself this but HOW THE HECK DID WE GO FROM BEN POSSIBLY LETTING JOJO GO IN EPISODE 8 TO THE GROWTH IN HIS FEELINGS (LOVE) ON EPISODE 9. Blows my mind because honestly i didn't see it. I thought it was fleeting and purely physical... albeit it's still very physical I can see theres a emotional connection as well. Idk im so confused. Thanks producers.

***i swear if Ben in his People Blog doesn't give an inclination to his F1 i will lose it. I've just about had it with him playing Mr. Nice guy with all the girls. Dude you're engaged to one of them. Be more loyal.

Normally just a silent reader, BUT ITA with this! and also his people blog should be good otherwise

I would not use People Mag as a barometer of this show. It is usually the PR go to for a positive spin on the show whether it is offering positive/neutral or negative info.

Kasha, what is your take on it all? I always love your insight. Who is your guess for F1? And after seeing his twitter announcement, any further thought?

by nikikass Tue Mar 01, 2016 11:45 am

I can't explain but after last nights episode, I am convinced that the spoiler is correct and Lauren is the one.

Fleiss has done his job beautifully. It is never an easy ride for the lead (that is the consequence for signing on with the devil)

I like all the girls but I don't resonate with any.

It was very clear early on who it was and one episode of real doubt is not enough. Too much too late for me to fall for that.

"I am more myself with jojo than with anyone in my LIFE" THATS A HUUUUUUUUGE STATEMENT. Ohh Ben....literally what the post above me said... his blog of Bens plus episode 9 plus the previews has jojo front runner.

I am just #shocked what is going on

by Diana Tue Mar 01, 2016 11:46 am

You do realize the F2 is always going to be the they want you to think F1 is?

by Guest Tue Mar 01, 2016 11:48 am

That blog that Ben wrote or someone wrote for him was just so wrong in my view. According all of you incredible sleuthers on this site we know that Lauren's FD was last in real time. That knowledge makes this whole blog just a rewriting of reality! At least they could have let him write what really happened. He is at least in lust, infatuation or love with both, but really..... Lauren's date was last!!! I was excited to see a love story between Ben and Lauren, or Ben and JoJo but last night just look the loveliness of it away, then this blog. Come on Ben, you should not let them manipulate you so much!!! Have a back bone Ben.

Based on those SCs Ben shouldn't be proposing to EITHER one. He's too confused and IT shows. I'm going to say that which ever girl got dumped, she should thank her lucky stars. If I were chosen , I would feel awful and INSECURE. I wouldn't hate him, but I could never trust that "I" was the CLEAR choice.....but that's just me.

by Guest Tue Mar 01, 2016 11:49 am

I'm hoping Ben didn't have anything to do with that People blog this week, doesn't give me confidence in what he supposedly has now. Who says that!

I hate to agree, but I kinda do. I wanted a little more acknowledgment about the bad place he put both women in. Maybe a little more remorse for getting carried away... Or something. It was just all kinds of me, me, me.

Yup. Still singing the same me me me perfect me song. I would be livid as the F2 reading it. Just stop being perfectly politically correct for a minute but I guess he still wants the world to love him.

I'd honestly be more upset as the F1. The F2 has likely moved on and is gearing up to start their stint as The Bachelorette. This is the F1's emotional trauma/mess to deal with.

I think he will choose Lauren in the end.
I think the physical edit is with JoJo.
And more than anything, I think JoJo had a lot of scripted storyline this season and Ben was in on most of it. Does it mean they did not fall in deep "like" regardless, yeah, kind of like Matt Grant and Shayne. Many past cast have fallen in love with the leads throughout history only to stop working together and fizzle.
IMO Ben is a nice guy that is emotionally a 26 yr old boy. Put that in close proximity to smoking women and you are bound to ignite, ooze and combust.
