Maybe.. But weren't people thinking she was gonna be the one to assure him that she loves/cares about him based on the fact that the Bach team purposely put those specific bio answers in her bio..?

I think she does like him at this point but I don't think she's the type to be gushing and proclaiming him to be the most perfect guy ever like some of the other morons were. Just the way Ben was worried about her leaving and the way they keep pushing this unlovable thing really makes me think their storyline whether it's true or not is going to be Ben worried she doesn't like him as much as he likes her and he'll be pursuing her this whole time.

I really like Lauren. She's not desperate like most women on this show and I have to respect her for making Ben pursue her and not throwing herself at him. If she wasn't the F1, she'd be one of my top picks for the B'ette. She seems to have some self-respect.

I'm just watching it now also and I didn't realize her mouth was that big last week.  Yikes!! :shocked!:

I do like that Lauren's reaction was real, saying she'd be fine & have no regrets if she left, which you don't often hear from contestants. They're usually saying heavy things, even if they don't truly believe them or are too wrapped up to realize it. Lauren is for sure confident. It was a direct contrast to Olivia claiming Ben, and also how some of the others were acting at this point. At least we get to see their dynamic better next week. So excited.

Watching it over again, I find it even less harmful. And on a shallow note, she looked gorgeous. Her legs are freaking amazing.

Oh shizzz, according to Lauren's Twitter, she's watching the show.. Good? Bad?

I appreciated Lauren saying she would fine if she left and then laughed at how panicked Ben sounded when he asked her "you'd be fine?". It was like his voice went up an octave.

I'm biased, but I thought my girl Becca was adorable tonight. She seemed so genuinely happy to be around Ben and talk to him.

  I like Becca and she did look great tonight and she did seem genuinely happy around Ben.  I think she really did come on here for Ben and don't think she would have come on again no matter who the lead was.  I think that Becca is a beautiful person inside and outside as well.  JMO so please don't pelt me with rotten tomatoes.

I thought Ben was going to get to know the girls before he got physical.  I didn't keep track of whom but it seemed like he kissed A LOT of them

Amber's whining annoyed me.  Why didn't she make an effort to talk to Ben.  A lot of the other girls did
