Lauren was always wearing her ring. The only reason she probably didnt wear it in Mexico is because she was going in and out of the water, tanning, sunscreen, etc. IMO. Before that trip, she was still wearing the ring.

I think is is a sad situation that Lauren gets all the blame. It is so typical to blame the woman. IMO. I have watched Ben and Lauren fairly closely and IMO the person who bears the BLAME for the breakdown of this relationship is BEN. IMO Lauren is entitled to spend time with supportive loved ones as she and Ben sort out their issues. I am certain Lauren loves Ben but sometimes love is not enough. If Ben and Lauren have to wait to make an announcement...I hope it is not to long. I feel sympathy for Lauren.

@clobrown yes I agree. My heart hurts for Lauren . If they have broken up, she will be the one most affected and again have to uproot her life from Denver . Maybe things are really messed up and she went to see Megan and her goddaughter ceyla to find some peace IMO. She loves that girl and maybe she wanted to feel better by being with friends who have been with her since forever . JMO

Imo Lauren didn't go to Ben's friend's bday party, because they're his friends. Nothing odd about her behaviour, IMO. Why would she go there with Ben, when IMO they're having serious issies. Why isn't Ben making any effort with Lauren? Why isn't he with her and her friend? You'd think he'd want to be with her, he's the one posting IG pictures how the split gossip is fake news. Lauren hasn't. Poor Lauren, imo, if she has to wait until March, until she can back up her stuff and leave. She must feel really unwelcome to Denver right now, IMO. It's his house, his friends,his city. Good for her for having Megan there, perhaps she's even staying with her, until she can move. JMO.

Same town and choosing to go to separate places after she's literally back from bday vacation hmm
Plus both watched the superbowl separately. They have to be done. It's so obvious IMO

Yeah, they're making absolutely no effort whatsoever to spend time in each other's vicinity lately. If they aren't done, then someone's definitely in the dog house. JMO.

Does anyone know when the twins' show is supposed to air? Just wondering if they need to wait for their appearance on it to air.

It appears to me she has always given more than 50% of the relationship. What if Ben still has cold feet and won't commit to a wedding, or he's not sure if he ever wants to get married, and maybe he's the one that needs the break. Lauren says screw it. She's had enough. She will do the things that makes her happy, and if that's alone, then so be it. Until he figures out what he wants to do, stay together, or go their separate ways.

This is the vibe I'm getting because she looks far too happy if they made the decision to split and have to wait till it can be formally announced. I would think she would stay out of the media and out of public, but what do I know. I don't have D list celebrity status and I'm not aware of what the proper protocol would be in this situation.

In the past we've seen miserable or somber SM pics from others who shortly after ended up splitting as speculated by many.

Yup, this is exactly the vibe I get too. I do agree that she likes the limelight, but IMO she also was 100% invested in making a life with Ben and the wedding cancelation really was the turning point. She was big time passive aggressive after that. Ben tried to compensate (i.e. road trip, buying the car, etc) but those were just band-aids. If Ben is still not ready to commit, then she SHOULD make it painfully obvious that she's not going to sit on her new couch with furry pillows and wait for him to decide.
She's really not my type of girl-friend, but my heart broke for her after Ben pulled the plug when she clearly had no doubts and was so excited for a wedding.

Megan's family from Washington is visiting right now, so maybe Lauren wanted to see them before they leave tommorow? (cause Megan said they're leaving tommorow) So strange IMO.

I think it's even stranger that Lauren would go there while Megan's family is in town and she has other visitors.

Scratch that. Not strange at all. These two are done and going separate ways. I'm glad Lauren has a real friend so close right now to give her shelter and support.

I hope these two don't end up on ATFR to give "advice".

The twins' show premieres March 20th. I believe that's a week after The Bachelor finale. I think Ben and Lauren filmed a couple segments that will be spread through out several episodes. And the show runs for 7/8 weeks.

^ I totally forgot about the show. IF they're done/close to done, I hope they don't have to wait to announce it/make it official, after all that time. That would be torture IMO.

Why do you think it's stranger?

by sosleepy Mon Feb 06, 2017 1:04 pm

@Lennoxcolinrolland Because Megan has a house full of people, including other babies. She's with family time, yet Lauren her friend who she sees often comes to stay the night? During the Super Bowl? When Ben was put with a crap load of friends that Lauren has also become close with? Yeah. It's only strange if they aren't having major issues.

How do you know she spent the night? And like I said, it's possible that she wanted to see Megan's sister, as she's going back home today (and they came to town while Lauren was in Mexico.)
