Not only this, but every single one of them usually has a kissy face or a pout. It makes me laugh

As daily routine now, people are still commenting on her weight on Ben's newest picture. It's definitely not as bad as the prior posts though.

Although I find Lauren snaps a little boring due to her lack of personality . I do think she is just being careful what she is posting. It might something to do with Ben's possible political career. I don't think being careful what to post on her snapchat is a big deal to me. Taking more selfies and videoing yourself a day is not that bad . That is how she gives something to her or their fans . It is good she does that route . Trying her best not to embarrass herself by posting anything and everything she does or they do with their personal life . I laugh and cringe a bit when formers do that on their sc's , Like they cannot keep what they do with their personal life every day like every silly stuff that sometimes you found ridiculous and the judgment is coming up . Yeah Lauren is not a snapchat queen and pretty sure reserve what she is posting in public. I do think her snapchat is not her way of life like other formers. Instead just keeping a bit her fans about her new life than being one of the snapchat queen who is always on snapchat capturing every single things she does or them together to pump their fans like shaitlyn . So kudos to her . Hope she keeps that way since she got a lot of downtime and keeps continue doing that down the road.  Of course jmo.

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

I do agree to a certain point. I noticed yesterday (and this has happened before) that Lauren probably doesn't post the most exciting parts of her days which to people may seem like she's boring or bored with her life in Denver. We saw selfies all by herself yesterday and air conditioner shopping, but then nothing when she joined up with Ben, Naz, and Mathias at the festival. I'm a fan, and even I would rather see the latter. A few weeks back, Ben's parents were there and she was quiet with snaps all weekend. I'm sure there was a lot of fun had there, but Lauren chose not to snap the progress in renovations only post to IG once it was complete. IMO, she does choose what she puts on snapchat, and yes it may not be the most exciting snaps to some people.

She can posts whatever she likes, doesn't really matter to me. I think she is boring, I think Ben is boring. It makes them probably pretty good for each other. I am sure they have fun, I just don't think they are all that entertaining day to day.  For some that is why they love them, so that is cool. They are no where near as loud or annoying as some past couples, they just do not excite me at all.

Her kissy/pouty face is the doll look to me, of course the lack of any expression in the eyes goes along with the doll thing too...

I will say the more I thought about it, alot of this weight shaming was actually made worse by her commenting to Ben on the picture he posted.  If my hubby posts a pic I don't like, I just tell him to take it down. Lauren told the world he should do better. IMO, she wanted the SM love that she does look good, but it backfired. Again JMO.

Eh, if being too "boring" is their worst crime, I think I can live with that

At the end of the day, I just mostly care that they're still together and happy. Whatever updates they choose to share on social media (however "boring" they may be :winkie:) is just a happy bonus.

That's just me though

Seems like she is deleting the nasty post on IG. Good for her !

How do you?

It would be on her end to delete it. Saw some nasty post on there this morning and now they are gone.

She and Ben both have said that they live, and like, the simple life. Their life may be simple to them but they do get to do some cool things. They seem to enjoy the life they lead and that makes it "exciting".

They acknowledge they're 'boring', and that's how they like it. Lauren pretty much said on the show she likes the 'normal', 'basic' and boring stuff. As long as they're not hurting anyone else, not tweeting stupid stuff, I'll support them and their boring life. And I'm thankful for any updates the post.

The empty, blank doll-like stare (with pout) will probably lead me to unfollow pretty soon. I miss her relaxed, natural face.
