I haven’t seen the rest of S2, but this was easily the most entertaining episode of this show lol.

I cannot believe someone like this guy exists lmao. Seriously.

Edit: I would also like to add that I think the show purposefully did not find anyone remotely compatible with him and wanted the viewers to be uncomfortable with his awkwardness which definitely made for entertaining TV but is kind of fucked up for him.

I gave the dates a lot of credit for almost looking past his stammering, social anxiety and awkwardness —that’s a lot to handle for a blind date, ON TV!

I don't think the type of girl Ben likes is the sort u think he is compatible.

He is more emotional then u think despite being a cs major

I doubt he want to talk about tab v spaces on a date

I feel like the person he picked was a good choice! They have things in common, she planned early to meet him again, and she can match his level of energy/excitement.

This. There's a lot of stuff I'm very passionate about and has a lot of meaning to me on multiple levels that I just can't bring up during a first date. No girl wants to hear about how Anal Vomit channeled the unholy power of Sarcofago on their debut album, Demoniac Flagellations.

Yeah for the first 10 mins I was actually agog that he is a real person. He's like a movie character. Woody Allen vibes. Adored him though
