Ben and Lauren Happily Ever After - Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Well, IMO, that is not too far of reach for any of the franchise spins. (the chit factor that is). Masterpiece Theater does not seem to be MF's goal.

Yup. Heck, the main shows of this franchise are chit to begin with. Poor soul-less creatures. They all make themselves look like dumbazzez IMO.

The producers really making these two stupid with their own show seriously ?! Who would believe this crap ? Stupid acting . Tomorrow episode of Ben and Lauren

Was I the only person who really felt for Lauren when Ben told her that the wedding was off? I would really be upset with Ben if I were Lauren. She changed her entire life for Ben and he just doesn't seem to get that. I need to stay off SM because of course -- people say negative things about Lauren rather than saying anything about Ben's behavior. I like them both, but it seems like people put Ben on a pedestal and he can do no wrong no matter what he does. That isn't fair. I really hope they do get married provided that Ben gets to the point that he is ready.

Yes. I really felt for her tonight. IMO, she handle the entire crappy situation so evenly keeled, so maturely, so level headed and calm. I really admired her for that. I can't say I'd handle something like that, which must have been devastating for her, so diplomatically. Ben needs to realize what he has. He's a classic over reactor and over thinker. He NEEDS someone like Lauren with her calm rationality in his life.

I still have hopes that they work it out and get married soon. Of course Ben is entitled to his feelings too.... but man up and don't make promises you can't keep - like saying yes to that televised wedding to begin with. I think they are ok in real time. But yikes. Lauren deserves so much more credit than she gets.

I haven't been watching their show but as much as I like Ben and think he's overall a nice guy holy chit yes it's always annoyed me ever since Kaitlyn's season how much of a pedestal he's always been put on and hearing how perfect he is and blah blah blah while Lauren always got the chit.   He's really just a normal man but I realize with him being a man he's more likely to be given the benefit of the doubt and it's always the woman's fault.

All JMO.

Tuned in for the first 10 mins then the ending with their wedding "fight." Aiye what drama. When Grant & Lace know more about each other in the 3 months of their engagement then B&L do in their half a year engagement what does that say!? Kind of a lame couples therapy just needed something for drama. Yeah I don't see a wedding happening when this show ends, they still need time imo since clearly Ben isn't on the same page though maybe that's changed since this episode was filmed.

I haven't watched since the first two episodes and I'm no fan of Lauren, but it's pretty crappy how the girl has taken the brunt of the negativity on social media and there's a lot. Ben needs to take a step back. He's lucky she didn't dump his azz at some point starting with what he put her through with the JoJo situation.

I do think he's being smart, however, if he's serious about wanting to truly know each other and be together before getting married. In reality, most of their relationship up until this point has involved two reality television shows. There hasn't been much normalcy. I do see them getting married at some point, but I think the twins are right from what I read in the Us Weekly article. I don't think it will be happening this winter. I'd be surprised.

At least Lauren got a free car.

Ditto to all of this.
