So tonight when Ben and Lauren attend the basketball game and Ben maybe posts a pic are we supposed to believe Ben doesn't like posting pics on social media anymore because of that 1 snapchat? We can't just say he's over it based on a few seconds on snap. He was probably just annoyed at that moment cause he didn't want his pics taken anymore. That's human of him. He's been posting pics that says he does love the attention too JMO. The kissing one, the one with his mom and Lauren, denver with friends, etc. Ben likes it just as much. Even his other snaps with Lauren he was in for it to tell the world he was going to a cooking class,showing off his apron as well as the elevator snap which he himself told us on snap that he's fine blah blah. JMO

I think Ben is temperamental person. Very moody!

I think Ben changes his mind quite fast about things like this. It's not been long that he advertised about 'their' snap chat on his twitter page, and even shorter time since he wanted to be in her video. She's not really been posting that much on social media, 1-2 snaps or IG pics every 1-2 days. He's also been posting on his IG. Jmo of course.

Ben tweeted about it that if people want to see some update of their post life they should follow Lauren snapchat . In short he wants his lady to do the update via snapchatting their activities. So Lauren is doing most of it . Although as what others said on some of those snapchat videos Ben is not thrilled. Lauren is excited taking those videos while Ben seems not that much. He seems doing it for her. As what others said last night Ben seems over taking videos of themselves on her snapchat. I noticed that too. Lauren seems enjoying taking videos of them than him .

Ha, it crossed my mind that Ben was upset by a Pap...or rude fan... or just got tired of it. Lauren tried to calm him down and when he saw the Paps were still following him at their home, he decided to take his shirt off too, to give them a shirtless shot, just for spite! It was kind of funny he did that, the previous shot was of Lauren carrying a pillow and it was snowing!!! Also as of Lauren's snap chat last night, he is just tired of the camera perhaps. He knows he signed up for this, but the human Ben appears to not want to take anymore photos for a while.

I noticed that too. My impression is Ben is more really wanting to go back to normal, including being a private guy, lowkey on social media, while Lauren is more enjoying having fans attention and pics taken etc. I don't mean that in a bad way about her, just they're on different pages with enjoying having or putting their faces out there. Ben's been out there for a while now, while Lauren has a newfound fame only a few months old.

I totally got Ben's comment in the snap, " I just don't like all these pictures" when he just wants to sit and watch tv at home privately. I would be the same. Hopefully Lauren will respect his desire to not be constantly posting stuff on sm if that's not his style. JMO. I didn't really love that she seemed to giggle like it was a cute moment while Ben was so obviously not into posting something to social media in that moment. Prob just another growing pain of a new relationship in day, finding a mutual social media approach that doesn't bug either person.

True. They need to find a way to respect each other desires, which I think they are doing. They really are posting in moderation. Of course we don't really know, but perhaps that is their compromise. Just like if Ben is over it and Lauren needs to respect that, he also needs to respect her desires if she wishes to "bask in the glow" or whatever. So far, I think they've hit a pretty healthy balance with social media.

IMO, he's not over anything. He simply said he doesn't like all of the pictures doesn't mean he's averse to taking A picture or won't post anymore. Ben practically spent one year being on tv. He's constantly posing with fans and smiling.

Maybe as Lauren said he's still confused about snapchat. He was not annoyed by that cheese grin and little smile /smirk towards the end.

Yeah. I agree. If he was truly over it, like really over it, he wouldn't be cuddled up with Lauren playing along. I think they think it's kind of a joke- Ben doesn't get or like snapchat. I don't think this is as big of a deal as we are making it. It's really hard to draw conclusions from a 5 second snap in time. Like really hard. As I mentioned on the previous page, there was one snap where Ben was all in and excited "can I be in your snap?" and waving, and Lauren looked tired and annoyed. It was the "we're in Denver" snap. Bottom line, if either are in a real mood and not into it, I don't think they'd be whipping out the phone to snap.

I think we overanalyse (at least I do), and take every word in every clip or snap literally. We really see 5-10 seconds of their 24 hours and really cannot know anything from that. Jmo.

Idk, he said in a snap yesterday that he didn't like taking 'all these pictures.' Another time he walked out of the room and Lauren was recording him, he was heard saying 'is this what our life...' before the video cut off. Other times he rolls his eyes and seems slightly annoyed when he realizes he's being recorded. Date nights and events, sure. But I can see that maybe he needs a break, I feel like he doesn't like his personal space and down time being shared. Sometimes you just wanna lounge around in PJs or just watch a game without being 'on' for the fans.

I get that Lauren is newer to the spotlight and is enjoying it and interacting with the fans. I'm sure they'll figure it out.

by AmoreBella Wed Apr 06, 2016 11:04 am

IMO .... I don't think Ben realized Lauren was taking a video and thought she was taking more pictures.

by psbarger Wed Apr 06, 2016 11:12 am

Ben's snap comment "I just don't like all these pictures" might be directed at the paps.

by umngirl Wed Apr 06, 2016 11:13 am

I would hope that if he expressed displeasure with all the pics and videos that Lauren would respect that an stop posting them.

by Cocoasneeze Wed Apr 06, 2016 11:22 am

I think she would and I think he would say it in private. IMO if he doesn't want her to take pictures, he'll let her know, but it won't be in a snap chat. Jmo.
