In the midst of choosing the next bachelor for the ABC hit series' upcoming season, it seemed there was a lot of widespread support for fan-favorite Ben H. Throughout Kaitlyn Bristowe's season, Ben Higgins proved himself to the world as a kind-hearted, intelligent, fun-loving, and -- dare I say -- beautiful young man. So when his spot was officially confirmed, one can only imagine the overwhelmingly positive responses.
And if you aren't convinced already, here's 19 reasons why the 26-year-old software salesman from Colorado will make a perfect bachelor:
Reason #1: Just look at him.
Reason #2: Look at that smirk.
Reason #3: I mean...
Reason #4: He has a smile that can make a heart melt.
Reason #5: He can pull off pretty much any article of clothing. You rock that sweater, Ben.
Reason #6: Not to mention, he wears a suit quite nicely.
Reason #7: He doesn't look too bad without a shirt, either.
Reason #8: He's a good dancer.
Reason #9: He's quite the passionate romantic.
Reason #10: Hot guys + babies = instant turn on. Talk about good dad material!
Reason #11: He cooks! Shirtless too, apparently, but no complaining here.
Reason #12: He ended his last serious relationship respectfully and on good terms, like a real man should.
Reason #13: He's got a sense of humor...while also occasionally looking like an actual model.
Reason #14: Imagine how great his hugs are. His long arms could easily wrap all the way around you (yes, he's 6 foot 4 inches).
Reason #15: He's adorable and incredibly sweet. Check this post out.
Reason #16: He's not afraid to do the dirty work.
Reason #17: He's a family man.
Reason #18: He plays basketball. Ball is life, right? I could watch him on the court all day.
Reason #19: He makes you want to be that fish.
If you haven't fallen in love with him already, just wait until his season on "The Bachelor" starts and I'm sure you'll change your mind. In fact, I've only been able to come up with one reason why he shouldn't be on the show:
It crushes my dreams of him ending up with me.
