Definitely.

There's also the fact that neither of them really know what they want since neither of them had ever had a boyfriend/girlfriend before.

Ben/Amy just come off so forced to me.

I feel like now, more than ever, they are both trying to convince themselves that they are in love and that they are happy, but deep down they know that it's not true.

That's the way I look at their relationship right now.

This will be an ongoing battle as long as the show is on the air.

Ben/Amy is too forced, I agree. They are an immature couple and no development comes from them.

Ricky/Adrian is almost like Ben/Amy but they have sex. Ben is clingy with Amy as Adrian is clingy with Ricky. Amy 'loved' Ben because he offered her security which she fell in love with..His security.. Ricky 'loves' Adrian because she gives him sex which he fell in love with the sex instead of her etc, etc.

Ricky/Amy keep each other on their toes. When they fight, their chemistry shows the most. Their relationship is more complicated because they have a child. They have to think what's best for them. They bicker and then they have those great moments. We have more time invested in the coupling of Amy/Ricky than we had in the couplings of Adrian/Ricky and Ben/Amy and it is showing because they are developing their (RA) relationship steadily instead of throwing it all at once to us..

I agree, Tanya.

I spend an evening at Chuckie Cheese and you people posted without me?!

Ben and Amy are definitely acting forced at this point. All they have talked about this season is cheating, lies and breaking up.

*sings* Where a kid can be a kid!

And that just gave me the mental image of Ramy in there with John. Oh, that would be funnnn.

ღMitra · 01-02-2010, 06:08 PM

Awww, that would be adorable!

Ice_Whisper · 01-02-2010, 06:21 PM

Just imagine the insanity that would come about!

Erinღ · 01-02-2010, 06:27 PM

Aw that would be cute

Yes Crissy where a kid can be a kid

Erin! I saw a new post by someone named Scribbled Pretty and I got all confused for a second. You trickster!

Ron_Beckett · 01-03-2010, 06:06 AM

I completely agree with the rest of you. Ben/Amy do seem too forced. They should've just let them go when they had the perfect opportunity because there were so many of them. Instead they dragged on.

*cough* 2010 and not 2009 *cough*

On the title, it says Airdate: January 4, 2009. Just realized that.

Ashley actually Tanya already did catch that mistake and I looked and she did try and edit it, it just didn't stay that way, maybe it was the way she tried to edit it, because it has to be done a certain way

But I fixed it!

I was on late last night and I saw it has changed and I was like crap I need to put up that post because I noticed some of you were still on!
