What SHIP?

I'm shipping (wanting them to be in relationship) Ben and AshleyI. She's perfect for him. She's you know pure, she'd be obsessed with him and constantly tell him how wonderful he is, wouldn't want to be away from him for long periods of time, and I doubt she cares about menial things like compromise in a relationship. All Jmo.

"Ship" means to want them together as a couple. I always thought it meant a boat or a large vessel, but I'm old. lolpanda

Ah, the hip lingo of the youngins'. laugh out loud

You joke but ita!!! I feel like it's not my "role" to decide what's right or wrong in a relationship and while that type of relationship probs wouldnt work for me, I can see both of them being happy as clams with it. Would be interesting!

I think Lauren and Chase will hook up. But I'd rather not since he's also from Colorado. Unless he moves for her then okay. Still iffy since he's part of JoJo's cast. Pukes*
Maybe someone from the next season of Ette? Though we can't discuss them here anyway.

Both Ashley I and Ben seem to enjoy staying in the Bachelor spotlight. Ashley did several shows with Chris throughout Nick's season and Ben would be a great partner. I see them as friends; however, Ben also seems to be the type that needs a girl adoring him at all times. You all may be onto something.

by mizzoufan Tue May 16, 2017 2:36 pm

I can see Lauren with nearly anyone. Josh Luke Vinny Chase.

Chase is living in sunny CA with Robby and Jef and 1 more roommate these days. So could happen.

JMO

I don't need Ben giving pointers for anything bachelor related sorry. He needs way more experience with relationships and women in general, IMO of course.

So maybe Robby and Amanduhh and Lauren and Chase! Ding ding ding

Look where he's now, nothing has changed for him from his pre Bach life. He has his house, where he continues to live, in Denver, his old job, his friends, his hobbies etc. Whereas Lauren moved from LA to Denver, left her home, lost her job, is moving again, having to look for a new home. She saw her friends far less than Ben saw his etc. He didn't agree to get a dog, nothing. Imo their personalities were wrong for each other, but also, the whole set up of the relationship was wrong, where Lauren did, and moved and did some more, and Ben didn't. Jmo.

I don't consider Lauren losing her job as something she gave up for Ben or something that is his fault. IMO, it's her fault. If she wanted to continue being a flight attendant, she shouldn't have done the show in the first place. I would hope she was smart enough to know that any type of fame would ruin that opportunity. And if she really misses it and wants to do it again, she should distance herself from the Bachelor franchise and go back to her normal life with her non-bach friends. In a year, no one will remember her and she can go back to flying and traveling with her sister.

And it's not like Ben forced Lauren to move to Denver. IMO, if Lauren wanted to stay in LA, Ben would have done the long distance thing with her until they got married. She was super excited about the move and IMO she didn't think it through completely. She probably didn't think about how often Ben would be gone because of his job, or maybe she thought he would quit his job and live off instagram shilling/blogging/appearance fees. IMO, she didn't really try to make Denver work. I think she wouldn't have been bored and hated Denver so much if she would have got a full or even part time job so she was busy during the week and actually had a purpose there. Instead of trying, she jetted off to wherever her friends were that week. IMO, Lauren just wants to be an influencer because of the easy money with the ability to do whatever whenever and I see her dating a fellow influencer in the future, not a 9-5er. She needs someone with a schedule as flexible as hers. JMO.

I couldn't have said it better myself - were you listening to the thoughts in my head? giggling

by ReneeM Tue May 16, 2017 2:45 pm

@Alanna I'm not joking. Now that the seed's been planted I think of all the girls in bachnation, Ashley's actually the one that's perfect for him. Ben also enjoys the spotlight and has no problem putting up a front, and Ashley's the same IMO. Plus falling in love over doing a bachelor podcast together? A meet-cute if I ever heard one.

And I think Chase moved to LA with Robby. Which is where I think Lauren will end up. Chase might be an uber douche IMO but I'm convinced his stroke game is excellent and after all these months with Ben, maybe that's what she needs. It can just be for a good time not a long time :gotcha:

All JMO.
