Courtney reportedly feeds Ben lie after lie. Is this the woman that Ben should marry?
Cunning Courtney Robertson sure knows how to play the game. A source reveals that Courtney had a serious boyfriend that she dumped without explanation to go on The Bachelor and meet Ben Flajnik.
Courtney told Ben in a recent episode that she’s had a hard time meeting men and hardly ever went on dates. But that’s simply not true.
“She was dating photographer Cavan Clark for months,” a source tells Life & Style magazine. “The one day she stopped calling; she told him she needed space.”
When Courtney dumped Cavan, she didn’t tell him the real reason it was over. “She never told him him she was going on The Bachelor,” says the source. “He was heartbroken when he found out.”
Now, Ben might be secretly engaged to Courtney at this very moment.
Poor Ben. He’s just setting himself up for heartache by falling in love with Courtney.

I rather date Courtney than most of the women on this site. Do you hear yourself? You sound just like Courtney if not worse! Take a look at what you are saying, but I am sure that you will not, but will just be nasty instead. By the way, its a show, none of you know this people

Ben is seeing a nice girl when he is with Courtney. He is not seeing anything else, she does not say anything but “nice” things and is funny. So why hate Ben?

Casey was sent home because she had an ex-boyfriend. Courtney was almost engaged, breaking it off when she became a contestant on ‘The Bachelor”. Where is the fair play? The producers just want all the drama they can get on the show.

I have lost complete respect for Ben after he has chosen Courtney. The issue is.. why couldn’t he see he was being played during these interludes with her. Is he really that ignorant? I have ZERO respect for him as a person now and less than that for Courtney. She is a cunning evil person and hopefully Ben will realize it before he completely ruins his reputation and his business.

I have also lost respect for him, partly because of choosing Courtney (some of us are very perceptive and can tell when a person is ‘acting’), and partly because of how he treats the other women. He could be much kinder at times and then he tells Ellen he ‘wishes there was a mole in the house’, yet he did; Emily tried to warn him and he basically chastised her for it, impolitely, and on tv – thus shaming her for her efforts.
Emily comes off as a sincere and honest person so he might have taken that into consideration, with a bit of grace, and not hinted that it would be her demise.
Also, Ben has a struggling winery to promote and he needs it to succeed or it’s back to mediocre jobs for him (he has not been particularly successful in the past, and wants to be his own boss) and this platform is providing him with priceless advertising, especially as he has no money to advertize at all.
I think him choosing Courtney is going to hurt his business, and hers as well. Models are hired to draw customers, not drive them away.

The real winners of this show are the girls Ben is sending home. I have no respect for Ben at all.
