'Love Is Blind' explodes after friends with benefits situation threatens to derail engagement

Dave Bettenburg's fiancée Lauren O'Brien left a "friends with benefits" situation before entering the show.

The whole thing feels like a textbook example of “tempest in a teapot” Bettenberg runs in the same circles as two of O’Brien ’s “exes,” only one of whom she actually agrees she’ve dated.

It doesn't help that Bettenburg ’s family isn’t on board with the engagement.

His family and friends apparently found out that he was engaged before he had a chance to tell them and did not take it well.

His inability to let go of O'Brien 's pre-pod fling feels especially disingenuous, considering how long he refused to choose between her and Mullaney .

Bettenburg says he can't stand going to sleep next to her knowing that she slept next to someone else.

Never mind that she’s said repeatedly that she and this guy were never in a relationship.

This saga is bound to spill into future episodes of the show.
