Ben Higgins - Lauren Bushnell - Bachelor 20 - Discussion - #2

In her defense she switched it up recently and gave us the flower crown.

and she's dog sitting and looking for a new air conditioner.

I mean she doesn't have to be "Snapchat Queen" like Kaitlyn and Jillian but give us something!

I think she seems  a little bored in Denver . Looking at her snapchat. She seems entertaining herself through her snapchat by posting more pics of her selfies using snapchat apps and videos . Which I think it is understandable since she is mostly alone at their home in Denver . I don't think there is a way for her to snapchat anything more than herself what she does in Denver at home . Except when she is out with some of the gals she met in Denver when they have a get together . Plus Ben is not a snapchat person . Jmo.

If doing normal things like dog sitting and shopping online means she's bored then my life must be pretty boring too.

Boredom is subjective.
I have friends that can not imagine not working and they are close to considering retirement. They have trouble finding things to fill their time. They get antsy.
Then there are others(like me) who find themselves constantly busy filling their days with all kinds of fun things(IMO) that have nothing to do with a paying "job" and are very happy. I get antsy if I have too many things to do!
Neither attitude is wrong, we are simply different people. The important thing is being happy in what you are doing.

Lauren is interesting with snapchat & I think it's because she's relatively cautious with what she's posts. She was learning snapchat then the Home Depot incident happened where they were heard on a separate snap about being careful about what they post. I'm a fan and enjoy all her posts but IMO, the most fun snaps she posted was the night they were at the country concert in Texas. If I had to guess it was because of the drinks involved and their guards were down a bit. We see the side of Lauren and Ben that they are comfortable with showing their fans, and I think this is smart. I would love to see all the fun candid moments with their friends because I do believe Ben and Lauren have a very fun side to them but you know if they show us that part of their lives it opens them up to more criticism. I think they are smart about what they choose to share with fans. Although I'm really hoping for some snaps from the beer drinking kickball league they are in. JMO.

Actually there is a post way back, Lauren was on snapchat before the bachelor, as well as other social media and shut all the accounts down either in 2014 or 2015. So no she isn't really learning this from scratch.

I think her SM just shows who Lauren is. What you see is who she is.

I think Lauren and Ben are trying to have a relatively normal life.  They are just showing the ordinary stuff the are doing. I don't find it boring....just normal real life stuff.  The IG pics and singing snaps just seem like Ben and Lauren. Neither ever struck me as wanting to be entertainers. Both struck me as truly looking for their special person to live a rather simple happy life with. I think what I have seen is who they are....and that is good enough for me.

Written while lounging and tapping away on my laptop with my dogs close by....enjoying myself but fortunately not snapchatting or IG my boring ways.

JMO

I bet she is backing off for a bit. I hope she is not letting the negativity get to her. Be yourself Lauren and keep doing your thing!!!!

Ben posted an adorable pic of them today, it's in the fan thread.

I don't know. Lauren is relatively quiet on social media - especially compared to most of her other Bachelor "colleagues." I'm also relatively quiet on social media. I am much more that what I post on Facebook or Instagram. I assume she is too. Yeah, she's not Kaitlyn with a practically professional snap chat account and maybe it's not super entertaining for some. I think Lauren (and Ben) are very cautious about what they post and what they put out there. Probably smart if they are really considering a life in public office. Ben doesn't even have snapchat. He's like the last 20-something from this franchise holding out on that one. One of the last 20-somethings in general, like nation wide holding out, actually.  

I guess I view it differently. Because to me, being quiet on SM does not mean 5 selfie Snapchats a day.
