Narrative Essay: Ben Higgins Journey As The Bachelor
Ben Higgins journey as The Bachelor is just about to start airing and viewers can't wait to see it all go down. It turns out that Ben doesn't have plans to kiss every single girl on the show, even though a few past contestants have done it that way. EW shared a big preview of the first episode with Ben and he even turns down a kiss from a girl named Lace. Now maybe this will be a classy season of the show.

In this clip, Lace and Ben are having some one-on-one time on night one of The Bachelor. Lace is putting her hand on his leg and flirting away. She shares that she is the only one that had kissed Ben so far and she isn't letting him get away that is for sure. Lace starts asking him if they can have a better kiss and Ben immediately starts backtracking and explaining to her that on the first night he wants to get to know everyone.

Online shared recently that Ben Higgins doesn't have plans to kiss all of the girls this season anyway and is actually going to limit the physical contact. When Chris Soules was on the show, he kissed a ton of girls right away and Ben is not going to do that at all. Here is what Ben shared.

One of things that I went into this season after talking to some of mentors and my friends, and also just thinking how I want to do it myself was I really wanted to concentrate on getting to know these woman outside of the physical aspect of it. I think that is always important in a relationship and it comes in time, but I wanted to make sure we spent our time getting to know each other one on one and not necessarily kissing or making out the whole the time.

Ben Higgins does go on to explain that some kissing does happen and that is obvious since he kisses Lace on the first night, but it won't be happening with every girl either. It really does look like Ben is there for the right reasons and he is doing what he can to get to know the girls and find out who might be the one for

    Benedick’s attitude towards love is that he does not love anyone and that it is a stupid idea to fall in love with someone. Then he further explains himself in, “Then is courtesy a turncoat. But it is certain I am loved of all ladies, only you excepted; and I would I could find in my heart that I had not a hard heart, for truly I love none” (Act 1, scene 1, lines 122-125, page 13). In this quote Benedick says that the woman’s courtesy is a traitor and that all ladies love him, except for Beatrice. He also states that it is to bad that he is so hard-hearted, because he really doesn’t love anyone. Beatrice’s attitude towards love is that she does not want to be married to a man that swears to love her, because she finds that very stupid. She then further explains herself by stating in, “A dear happiness to women. They would else have been troubled with a pernicious suitor. I thank god and my cold blood I am of your humor for that. I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow than a man swear he loves me” (Act 1, scene 1, lines 126-130, page 15). In this quote Beatrice is saying that Benedick would make a nasty suitor for women and that they both feel the same way about love. She also states that she would rather hear her dog bark at a crow than hear a man say that he loves her. And I find their courtship more appealing than Claudio and Hero’s, because it is more exciting and you can’t predict what they are going to say…

    I first got the idea for the headcanon in the first scene of the play, when Benedick explicitly states he has never been in love: “And I would I could find in my heart that I had not a hard heart, for truly I love none.” (1.1) In the same scene, he implies that he doesn’t understand romantic attraction: “That I neither feel how [Hero] should be loved nor know how she should be worthy is the opinion that fire cannot melt out of me.” (1.1)…

    In this play, the reader can compare the two different couples and quickly realizes that Beatrice and Benedick take their time, don’t rush, and compared to Hero and Claudio it wasn’t love at first sight. Right from the beginning of the play, during their first conversation they try to use a type of language that hides the real feelings they have behind for eachtoher. " What my Lady Disdain! Are you yet living? " This quote is said by Benedick to Beatrice, when he comes back to Messina. They try to be very unpleasant to each other and act like they don't care, as they don't want to admit it to the other but to themselves as well. It’s not until the end of the play that Benedick and Beatrice share their feelings and tell each other that they are in love, which shows how they took their time, and really waited for the right moment to let everything go. " Do not you love me? " " Why no, no more than a reason." This quote shows that they still hide their real feelings from each other until the last minute,when they finally feel like it's time to deliver their feelings. Those words said by Benedick show the delivery of all this secret " A miracle! Here's our own hands against our hearts. Come, I will…
