Anyone watching Ben the Bachelor tonight? - NO SPOILERS PLEASE

[kimmar067]

I think he's just socially awkward and can't think of anything to say - I mean the whole show has just been ... "Well, yup. Here. We. Are, This. Is. Nice,"

...if we were lucky, that spider would have bitten BOTH of them....

 

[kimmar067]

Wait! She is THE TALENT you know. Everything should revolve around her and all of these other girls are beneath her.

....they're just GIRLS. She's. a. WOMAN.

total package.

 

[cruiserkaren]

Has anyone seen an interview from Emily like the one someone posted after the red hair gal was eliminated? I'm curious to see what she has to say now after seeing the episodes.

 

[kimmar067]

LMAO!!!!! Courtney is gonna love her new dare devil life when he picks her!!!!

...well, at least we know she's into hairy spiders...

 

[kimmar067]

Is he blind, stupid or both??

...is this a trick question?

 

[kimmar067]

Oh, man, the production assistant that's writing these date cards needs to find a new job...."let's SEA whether our families will meet?" Lame and cheesy and I love how the girls are all, ooooh, ahhh, everytime. They must not know that Ben isn't writing them.

....gee, and here all along I thought they all had the same handwriting.... [ ]

 

[MAGICFOR2]

...if we were lucky, that spider would have bitten BOTH of them....

Yes, and put us out of our misery.

....they're just GIRLS. She's. a. WOMAN.

total package.

Oh, yes. And a model. And THE TALENT!!!!

...is this a trick question?

He had his brain tucked into his pants

He had his brain tucked into his pants

Is that like when a guy uses a dowsing stick to search for underground water? When the stick quivers, you know where water is.

Only Ben uses his own stick to find a girl and thinks when it quivers, he's hit paydirt.

I'm trying not to visualize that one -I think that's how it works for the stupid and blind,

OMG! Just saw a preview of Monday - crazy looking mom - I think she's Courtney's - looking down her nose at him - REALLY? And the wedding is already set up!

Frankly, this is one wedding I HOPE happens! They both deserve each other.

True. It would be like Bride of Frankenstein.

 

[DeluxePrincess]

Predicition...Emily will be the next Bachelorette.

I was thinking Kacie B.

 

[MELSMICE]

Frankly, this is one wedding I HOPE happens! They both deserve each other.

Seriously............I was really trying to believe that he might come to his senses & realize how fake Courtney is.

I can't believe with the way he has called all the other girls out on things they have said in reference to the girls in the house that he didn't say anything to Courtney when she started bashing all of them.

Really? They are just girls.....I have such a hard time talking & relating to them........blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! They deserve each other.

 

[FINFAN]

True. It would be like Bride of Frankenstein.

except Frankenstein had feelings above the waist as well of course I havn't watched for a few weeks, but you guys are better than the show, lol... I get all the important stuff and I don't have to visually see Monkey boy and Pugney

 

[3prettyprincesses]

I was thinking Kacie B.

Oh man, I hope not! She's very weepy and emotional, I don't know if she'll be able to handle the stress of it. Maybe? It would make for an interesting season though!

Seriously............I was really trying to believe that he might come to his senses & realize how fake Courtney is.

I think Ben's proven which part of him is calling the shots here.

I can't believe with the way he has called all the other girls out on things they have said in reference to the girls in the house that he didn't say anything to Courtney when she started bashing all of them.

Of course he didn't. He is completely smitten and blinded by her. She can basically do anything she wants right now and still he'll come groveling back to her feet. Think about it, all of the other girls are tripping over themselves to make an impression on Ben. All Courtney had to do was go skinny dipping and now she is clearly "winning".

Really? They are just girls.....I have such a hard time talking & relating to them........blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! They deserve each other.

I know, he's an idiot. When she was saying that these aren't girls she'd be friends with and how she has more guy friends anyway, well a huge red flag should have gone up for Ben. Clearly it didn't though. He has treated the other girls shabbily but princess Courtney is apparently infallible.

NO SURPRIZE!!!!

Ben is who he is....
He knows he wants to get it on with Courtney....
He is a PIG.

I've seen it since the beginning of the season.
And, it just cements the way he reacted at the end of the last Bachelorette.

At this point, I can't believe that anybody isn't seeing right thru him.

Remember when Ben and Courtney were sitting on top of that huge Mayan ruin, and Courtney had been really whiney and 'offensive', bashing and trash talking all the other girls... I saw the look on his face... This is NOT new to him. He DID see right thru it... He knows exactly what he is doing. Remember that big life-changing 'epiphany' he talked about, sitting there on top of that thing with Courtney....

Here it is:

"Hey, I have to admit it... I am a PIG... I want this SKANK, and you know what... THAT's GREAT!!!!! It's perfect, because, hey, we are BOTH 'wierd'

Better to say 'wierd' than "despicable human beings"...

Here is what Courtney's ex-boyfriend, Jessie Metcalfe, (from the 1st season of Desperate Housewives, and the upcoming remake of Dallas,) says about their relationship & The Bachelor:


(Bolding mine.)

Desperate Housewives' Jesse Metcalfe Thought The Bachelor's Courtney Robertson Was "Using Him"

January 10 at 05:28PM EST by Addison Walker

"Much has been made about Bachelor Season 16 contestant Courtney Robertson and her “two sides.” On the one hand, we observe the confident, mature and appealing femininity that has so captivated Bachelor Ben Flajnik. On the other, the aggressive, competitive, win-at-all-costs, red in tooth and claw behavior which turns the other girls against her. Is that second side real? Are the other girls just jealous and portraying her that way, or is Courtney really one of those specimens who are a lady with men and a tiger with women?

One man who isn’t buying into the “innocence illusion” is Hollywood actor Jesse Metcalfe (Desperate Housewives, Dallas). He’s been linked to Courtney romantically after photos surfaced of them together at the 2005 EMMY Awards, but an exclusive source close to Wetpaint Entertainment tells us it was the briefest and most-fleeting of relationships.

“He thought she was using him,” says a friend of Jesse’s. “Very quickly, it became clear, she’s only interested in getting famous.”

He went on to say that Jesse’s association with Courtney was so short lived (a few weeks at the most) that he’s “disgusted" it’s even being brought up, and that her behavior on The Bachelor “just proves what he thought about her all along.”

Jesse, who just celebrated his 33rd birthday, has been in a committed relationship with actress Cara Santana (CSI) for nearly two years. “She’s a really great girlfriend,” gushes our source, “and Jesse never gives any thought to Courtney or her claims about their dating.”

The jury’s still out on the Courtney’s Bachelor behavior, but it seems like Jesse Metcalfe delivered his closing arguments long ago. Best of luck on Dallas, Jesse."
