Everyone has a bad date horror story, whether they came on far too strong or just didn't care at all. Recently, in sharing stories, a number of people who date men have quickly realised a surprising link between the romantic fails - their date's name was Ben.
No, these people aren't all dating the same terrible Ben, instead, the name has started to earn itself a reputation as being someone to avoid on the dating scene.
Aptly named "The Ben Stage" people, mainly women, are taking to TikTok to warn others about the perils of dating someone named Ben. Those who've had run-ins have sworn off the B name for life but is it all just a coincidence?
