We all have those friends. You know, the ones who turn their noses up at reality TV and declare they never want to hear the Kardashians come up in conversation again. This is not for that friend.
This is for the friend who tells you they can’t go to dinner on Monday nights because they need to be on their couch by 8 and can’t risk being a few minutes late. This is for the friend with the bracket filled out that has nothing to do with fantasy football. This is for the friend who is emotionally invested in the bachelor for these five reasons.
1. Ben Higgins
This charming sweetheart will have any viewer hooked.
2. Olivia’s mouth
In addition to opening unnaturally wide, “her mouth smells like sh-t.”
– Emily Ferguson (contestant)
3. Monday nights
Start the each week off strong with a two hour episode plus an extra hour of the Bachelor Live, in which contestants and Ben himself discuss the week’s events.
4. Extravagant dates
From bungee jumping to private concerts, The Bachelor takes contestants around the world and gives them experiences of a lifetime.
5. Feel grateful for your own life
After each dramatic episode, you can’t help but feel glad that the person you date isn’t dating twenty other women… hopefully.
