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!

Seconded.

Just a Thought !
What if it was Really Obvious Who Ben was interested in= Lauren - by this time of Filming even the other women were publicly talking about it !

So TPTB Really has to ramp up their usually switch-a roo! mis-direction etc to save the Show - Cue the Max Drama please

So ``I have told 2 women I love them ``= What if True= but 1 was his Mum - on the call home !

Build up F2 scenarios & throw in a`` He slept with everyone !``IMO - there is very little connection between F3 & him - from both sides ... so -

More Miss direction - throw in a few Bikinis & High Heat scenes - and Voila - Both Ben``s are Confused & Lost !

I think that while Ben really likes F2 - he is too far gone on Lauren & he likely has been very much concerned with screwing that up & being able to SkeeDaddle outta there with Her & preserve their sanity

Thanks AmoreBella for bringing that over. That was cute.

Chris Harrison's
It’s not longer a matter of whether Ben enjoys being around someone anymore. It’s gotten much more serious than that, and Ben needed to start making decisions about which of these women he could really see as his wife — and the women in turn, need to decide if they can see Ben as their husband.

From People, "The Bachelor's Chris Harrison Answers Our Biggest Burning Question of the Season"

He reconfirms the Ben is "in love with 2 women" party line and further states that it leads to heartache for one or both.

Then he is asked:

We task the Rose Master to describe Ben, 27, in one word – and he couldn't choose "unlovable." The answer? Well, it might just give you a hint about the upcoming fantasy suite dates.

He says that Ben is a "gentleman" but when asked by Robyn Ross if that is a clue about the FS..CH says "not gentleman enough" and further states "a gentleman can still be a generous lover." Hopefully, he was speaking generally and has no inside knowledge of the extent of such talents re: Ben.

Re FD sex. IMH(and probably unpopular)O it takes two to tango. The girls know there are 2 others still. To me if they do it, its like at the beginning of a relationship prior to becoming exclusive. You might be sleeping with someone while they or you are sleeping with more than one person until you become exclusive. IMHO until they are "engaged" they are not exclusive and what happens between two consenting adults behind closed doors is between them.

To me the "engagement" is when they become exclusive and when they really start planning a wedding if that ever happens is when they are really engaged.

I'm sorry but IMO it's borderline creepy for CH to give interviews about wether Ben sleeps with and how many women. Just NO!!

Agreed!

Definitely creepy. Since he always has an agenda in these interviews, his gleeful delight in the whole thing does make one wonder about what "messiness" they may air down the road, i.e. something from the FS or possibly, a more revealing than usual confrontation at the FRC.

by Kashathediva Tue Feb 16, 2016 7:30 pm

This is worse than creepy. Slimy? Worse. I can visualize CM getting off on all this innuendo. Sick fork. Sick bassstid.
For all we know it could have meant Ben was generous with kissing in CM's reference to generous. I tend to doubt that, but that titilative convo with CM makes me want to hurl. He ties "disgusting" with MF.
