 You are not alone.  Speaking for myself, I always want a love story and a un-messy ending.  Just ain't happening this season.

So, wha’t she looking for? “Someone with a genuine heart, someone who really believes in truth and authenticity. And someone who hopefully has the same faith that I do so we can rase a family that way,” Ben said in a new interview with People magazine. Speaking of his faith, he knows that it’s always an issue when it comes to kissing the girls — and going further in the fantasy

It’s important to take that time away from everybody else,” he said of the infamous overnight dates.

“But there are boundaries I’ve set based on my faith.

My desire is not to just make out with as many women as possible. The physical part of the relationship will come, but initially I want to get to know the women for who they are.”

  TPTB don't give a rats patootie about a love story.  It's all about suspense, drama and if at all possible, a train wreck!

I just don't see why she'd post that publicly for their friends/family to see if Lauren was actually burned by Ben. That'd be pretty cruel of her sister to draw attention to it if she was hurting, IMO.

Crap happens. It's nice to think that people can keep things calm, collected and under control and not let emotions and impulses spontaneously combust. IMO things happen in the heat of the moment whether it be impulse sex or impulse buying or impulse eating.  How many commercials are based on impulse--You can't eat just one etc?
TPTB pride themselves on keeping the cast off guard and doubting what is real and what isn't. They push buttons. They are the ones holding the cards, not the cast. The leads reality is based on not only the interactions between himself and cast, but more on what tptb feed him about what went on with the cast.
The cast may be ones making the final decisions on their actions, but they are generally acting on false information fed by TPTB based on very few private minutes with other cast.  
So yeah, cast are responsible for their actions each and every time, but they aren't dealing with a real situation. They're dealing with a stacked deck and a reality based bubble.  

I just had to say this was an awesome post!

I interpret Mollie's snapchat as saying Lauren was burned by Ben 1000%.  I also think it validates the magazine articles.  Otherwise there would be no reason to snap that.
