Someone cmiiw but hasn't ben already said he wouldn't be interested in doing it again

For all of these reasons, Fedotowsky has "a strong feeling ABC could choose a Bachelor from a past season,” And if you’ve been yearning for a certain Colorado native to be back on your screen, making ladies swoon, then this might be cause for excitement: the Season 6 Bachelorette explains “I know [ABC] would absolutely love to have Ben Higgins as the Bachelor again. And I honestly adore him! Ben is one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met!”

I think Ben would do it in a heartbeat if offered. He lives for the public adoration IMO. laugh out loud

I am actually wondering about the timing of Lauren's dating article. Now that it is out there, there would be minimum backlash if Ben does become the Bachelor IMO. I can see some flowery article about how she has now found love and it's his turn again. dizzy

All JMO

I just hope not. He wasn't all that interesting the first time and I thought it was pretty bad having Brad twice as TB, especially when he (imo) clearly wasn't ready to settle down. Ben seems to have some things to work on and I don't think I can take another Bachelor getting therapy during his season. JMO no no

Ben would be all over the Bachelor opportunity like a bee to honey or a fly to garbage. He seems to be living for self promotion IMO. And being that he fancies himself as a relationship expert...I am sure he is ready to find the one/s to say ILY (two) too!! :gotcha:

But please no No No....ABC. Ben Higgins - Bachelor 20 - Discussion - Page 64 1f631

I keep saying it... Ben Higgins is totally their ace in the hole, Plan B backup plan if things fall through with other candidates. I can see them doing it.

And I'd they were to offer Ben the gig... he's on it, signing on the dotted line in 2.5 milk seconds. Lauren be damned.

Please no. I'd rather suffer through just about anyone over Higgi 2.0.

I think a 2nd round of Ben would not be ideal. I've recently become really aware that he doesn''t seem to have an opinion about anything. He talks so much like a politician it's become nauseating to listen to IMO. I've been listening to the podcast with Ashley as background noise as I'm doing house chores and all his answers and advice are so wishy washy. It's like he's afraid of saying the wrong thing so he talks about 2 perspectives. This personality trait IMO was the reason for the dual ILY. I used to think he was the all American gentlemen but lately when he talks I just want to shake him and tell him to have a personality and opinion. He just seems so rehearsed JMO

Yep. Basically this. He's not comfortable with himself yet. He just cares waaaaaaaay too much about what people think and what he thinks everyone wants him to be.

Newsflash. Just be yourself. Own who you are. I think (hope) Ben in his 30s grows a little out of this adolescent nonsense. It's an exhausting way to live.

Please no. He wasn't that good the first time and he would be even worst he second time. He is even more aware of how things are done now and his politician like posturing has been honed even further.

First off, Ben has already said post breakup it would be highly unlikely for him to do another bachelor related show. Correct me if I'm wrong on who was interviewing him - it was either Mario Lopez or Ryan Seacrest. Hosting After Paradise or something similar? Yeah I can see that. He'd be good at that.

Secondly, as for "Lauren be damned" Lauren is in a relationship now. Ben and Lauren are over. IMO, Lauren is completely irrelevant when it comes to Ben dating now. In whatever form of dating he chooses. She doesn't matter anymore.

Great, Ben 2.0 would be the third season on the bachelor I skip watching. I made it through 2 Episodes his first season and tuned in for the finale after I heard about two ILYs. I think paint drying would be more fun. I want Alex for bachelor. I am off SM, but can I bribe one of you to start the campaign?

by Guest Thu Jul 13, 2017 12:16 pm

IMO, he would sign on to be TB again in a heartbeat. And, no I would not be watching it.
