Ben Higgins - Bachelor 20 - Discussion

@Lennoxcolinrolland oh ok thanks!

Naz is really close to Shaelin.

I feel like it's only a matter of time until those two get back together. They clearly weren't over each other during Kaitlyn's season and I'd imagine Ben being the Bachelor made him more attractive to Shaelin. Now that Lauren's out of the way, she's not letting someone else swoop in, I'm sure. JMOAA.

Shaelin is the one that dumped Ben. So I wouldn't say she wasn't over him. It didn't take long for her to talk to the media once he was announced as a contestant. IIRC she said he had a hard time when she dumped him, texting and contacting her.

It seems to me, she is the one who is having a hard time now since he is so popular.   She seems to be the type to drop her b/f if there is one, for any opportunity to get back into his life. Maybe she wants a career change, shilling and blogging!

Well I don't mind- it seems he was always in love with her, wanted to move with her and it's this relationship that made him think he's unlovable. I'm looking forward to their reunion. It's very common on these shows- like Melissa and Ty.

I follow Shae and couldn't confirm she was with Ben based on her IG stories. But I'm guessing it was likely if Ben is in fact in Austin.

Is she still with that supposed boyfriend? I agree, I think these two are getting back together as well. I don't think Ben was over her on Kaitlyn's season, and maybe that's part of the reason he could never fully commit to Lauren either. He has business to finish with this chick.

IMO it can't be that serious with Shae and new guy. For one, she NEVER really mentions him or takes pics with him on IG. She stories a lot too, and he's never there. Based on her IG, I'd totally think she was single. Also, I doubt he'd be cool with her hanging last night with Benji-o. He's MOT filler just like poor Lauren was. Also, it took Ben all of like 1 month to find himself in Austin with the chick that got away post breakup. So yeah.

Real question. Is Shae moving to Denver or Ben to Austin? I'm thinking Ben goes to Austin and it pisses me off. Poor Lauren! Such filler in Ben's big plot to get this girl back.

Lauren's way better off without this boy

JMO

Ben is totes moving to Austin imo, just like he wanted to on the onset of all the Bach Nation shenanigans. And I bet once they get engaged, he won't be dragging his feet because he's so unsure and needs more time. All imo.

This really upsets me. Ben can do what he wants but the person I feel sorry for in all of this is Lauren, he literally wasted her time... I could go on a rant about this but I will spare you all. It makes me so mad and sad for her and I'm sure she will be upset when she finds out that's if she hasn't found out already.

Everything he has said post breakup has been dishonest - podcast with Ashley, furniture.. ok. I'm done.

The fact that she was talking to the media at all told me there was unfinished business there on her end as well. Maybe she just enjoyed the idea of being "the one that got away" for Ben and felt threatened when he went to date on TV, I don't know. I just think that if you're really over someone, you don't run to the press about them as soon as they get a bit famous. JMO. Could be that she did love Ben, but realised she's too young to commit to one person and broke it off so she could have some fun thinking they'll reconcile if it's meant to be. It happens.
