Ben ‘feels like a fool for not seeing Courtney’s motives when they were so clear to everyone else,’ a source reveals.

Ben Flajnik reportedly got engaged to Courtney Robertson while filming the season finale of The Bachelor on Nov. 16 leaving fan favorite Lindzi Cox with a broken heart. But now, sources say that Ben is totally regretting his decision and that he feels like he should have picked another woman in the end.

“Ben admitted to a close friend: ‘I chose the wrong woman,’” a source tells Reality Weekly.

Ben was tricked into making his decision. “Ben knows he made a mistake,” shares the source. “He feels really played and is truly unhappy about the way things turned out.”

“Ben’s a romantic and was blinded by the situation,” the source explains. “Now, he’s realizing there were some seriously great girls on the show, but he completely blew it.”

After watching the show, Ben knows that Courtney played him. “He feels like a fool for not seeing Courtney’s motives when they were so clear to everyone else, but he’s also pretty hurt and insulted,” says the source. “He thought Courtney really had feelings for him and believed her when she said she wanted to be with him.”

Unfortunately Ben has to pretend that he’s in love until the season finale airs. Only then can he reveal the truth about his sad love story.

“He proposed, so he still has to behave like he’s madly in love with the winner,” says the source. “But he’s really starting to resent her.”

I was disappointed when I heard Ben was th Bachelor. So many interesting choices like Mickey and others. Ben has a dull personality and an eternal bad hair day. I’m sure he is a nice man, but not for interesting tv watching. I aalso must state I am not th.rilled with Emily as the next bachelorette. She is a little too prissy for me. Brad really and truly loves her. But she couldnt get over the other.overnights. She knew what to expect before going on the show. Onve he proposed it wss just her and that should of been enough for her, considering the type of courtship they both new they were getting into. Hlow about bringing m

I’m done. I was a huge fan of Ben but now I hope he goes away forever. Congrats court, seal the deal, wait a year and get your half of ben’s money and you will clearly be “winning”! Like that wasn’t your plan. Done like dinner I want my hours back watching.

Courtney is a nasty peice of work with an agenda that was clear to see for everyone but stupid Ben. I also thought that he was not only dull but unattractive so I really don’t care who he picked. By now, they’ve probably broken up and I doubt if anyone cares. The fantasy and the thrill of the process is what makes the women think that they are “in love” with some guy they hardly know so none of it counts and none of it lasts. This show has gone way past it’s sell-by date. They got their 15 minutes of fame and now it’s time for them to fade to black.

I wouldn’t want many of those rejected women in my life…..to become so aggressive and “mean” over someone else’s demeanor is ridiculous. There are all kinds of people in the world. Learn to live with it. Also, let’s not forget that she was most likely “encouraged” to be the “bad girl”. She was acting out the part, IMO. Remember “Erica” (Susan Lucci) on AMC? Sweet woman in real life, and a very good actress in front of the camera.

Ben deserves all the crap he gets….he was not played by Courtney. He needs to take FULL RESPONSIBILITY for his choice. He chose her…and chose to fall for all her ploys hook, line and sinker. As horrendous as Courtney appears on the show, Ben was just a terrible (the way he treated the other girls with his I-Could-care-less-about-anyone-other-than-Courtney attitude….regardless of what anyone else warned him about the entire time. He was just in love with the idea of landing a model. He should feel like a fool because that’s exactly what he is. She’s not to blame, he is completely responsible for his actions. What a chump to try to blame Courtney.

I liked this season at first, but stopped watching when I started to believe the rumblings that he chose the horrifying Courtney. She is beyond awful. Why do I keep watching this show!! I know, because I’m a hopeless romantic.

If this is true and they are still together is only for the show, so we dont stop watching. Ben and Courtney will pretend because of their contracts and their vanity. No likes to be called a fool in national tv and Courtney, she will try and pretend to be in love with Ben, in a desperate move to change our mind! Because she wants to move to the next level in her carrer, and obviously America will never allow her to be a RESPECTED TV PERSONALITY!
As for the trip, is the worst idea ever…it will be like being in the bachelor. Stay here in US and live a normal life, lets see if they can make it with all her horrible flaws and lets see if she can fool him once more! Specially around friends and family that really care for Ben, they will make him to dispose of her as soon as she acts one bit mean and let’s hope he listens this time.
