Is The Bachelor contestant just in it to win it?

This season of ABC's The Bachelor has been one of the most controversial seasons ever. Bachelor Ben Flajnik has narrowed it down to 2 girls in preparation for the finale in two weeks. Lindzi Cox is a small town girl from Ocala, FL who won the first impression rose on Episode 1 for riding in on a horse. Lindzi is definitely a fan favorite. The other finalist is Courtney Robertson, a model from Scottsdale, AZ. Courtney is by far the biggest villian that has ever been on the show, but it also seems that she has won Ben's heart.



The girls have voiced serious concerns to Ben about Courtney in past episodes. They claim she is there for the wrong intentions and I have to agree. Courtney seems like she has absolutely no interest in Ben. Whenever Ben voices the concerns he has with her she becomes extremely defensive and rude towards him and won't even look him in the eye. At this point in the game, he shouldn't be second guessing her so much. Instead of really getting to know each other and being all lovey-dovey, Ben needs to spend his time making sure Courtney's not the bad guy that everyone makes her out to be. It just seems to be way too early in the relationship to have this many concerns.

On the latest episode of The Bachelor, Kacie B. returns to get answers from Ben and to warn him of Courtney yet again. Kacie was always my favorite on the show and I was completely heart broken when Ben sent her home after hometowns last week. I thought she was the best fit for Ben because he always seemed so happy around her, but he felt that, after meeting her family, their backgrounds were just far too different to ever have a life together. None the less, Kacie flew all the way to Interlarken, Switzerland to talk to ask Ben why it was over. She also told Ben that Courtney was only there because she's "in it to win it" and will break his heart if he proposes to her.

I think that Kacie really is concerned for Ben and truly wants him to be happy. In their conversation she never told him that he would be happier with her, but with anyone besides Courtney. She doesn't want to see him get hurt. I respect what Kacie did but I'm not sure if Ben felt the same way. He seemed almost angry when Kacie left.

Going into the rose ceremony, Ben was conflicted. He didn't know if he should listen to the girls concerns or follow his heart. According to him, he made his decision at the last minute. But no surprise, he gave the roses to Lindzi and Courtney and sent Nicki packing.




Heading into the last and final week of The Bachelor, the girls and Ben will stay in Switzerland to finish out their love stories. We have to wait two weeks to find out who Ben chooses, but we get to see the Women Tell All special next week. I can't wait to see all my favorites come back and talk about all the drama that has gone on this season! Don't forget to tune in to ABC to watch next Monday at 8pm!
