Ben's Character #Bachelor

I am really into the Bachelor this season. I have a friend (Katie) who always finds out who the winner is beforehand. When I was at her house last month we were watching the show and she asked if I wanted to know it was. I was like "yes, let me guess first" I thought for a moment and gave her the name (don't worry, I won't reveal the name for you) and I was right!!! I LOVE being able to guess things right like that. So since I was able to guess the winner from the first episode I have been extra invested in this season.

I really really like Ben as well. This is my favorite characteristic of him: he over and over again builds confidence in the girls who are on the show. Not in a false "I'm following-in-love with  you way" Like the bachelors normally do. But instead tells them over and over again, you are amazing, you are incredible, you
don't need to be insecure around me because just how you are is amazing. He says it in a way that says my opinion, my rose doesn't change you. You are amazing no regardless of your status on this TV show.

We all need to hear that. As much as I think it is important to tell that to your significant other, I think it's almost more meaningful to hear it from other people. We are incredible. We all need encouragement. Our worth is a lot more than how we are in that romantic relationship.

I am glad that Ben does this and is sharing that importance to all of us that spend our Monday nights watching The Bachelor.
