You Have To Move On: What’s Next For Ben On Days of our Lives?

On Days of our Lives, Ben has made it infinitely clear that he will never move on from Ciara. For their love is a love like no one has ever loved and no one shall ever love again.

Days of our Lives Polling

You know, like Hope (Kristian Alfonso) and Bo (Peter Reckell). But if Ben’s (Robert Scott Wilson) mother-in-law can move on from the great (presumed dead) love of her life – and vice-versa – several times, you figure Ben will eventually be able to, as well. So, whom should it be with, in that case? How over 7,000 viewers expect this to play out:

Clean Slate

It should be someone new, a landslide 88% of you insist. Ben has too much history with every woman currently on the canvas. They are either related to his late wife, or he killed someone they love. Often both. His only way forward would be with a woman unfamiliar with his past.

New Girl In Town

Allie (Lindsay Arnold) is related to Ciara through Roman (Josh Tayler) and Bo, but she wasn’t in Salem for the worst of Ben’s reign of terror, so maybe she could leap into a relationship with less trepidation than most, 7% of the audience ventures.

Know Claire By Heart

A smaller 4% voted for Claire (Isabel Durant). She certainly can’t get on a moral high horse over what Ben has done. She’s done some pretty terrible stuff, too. If he forgave her, then she can forgive him, and they have the best shot at a happily ever after.

Bad Girl

Less than 1% voted for Gwen (Emily O’Brien), which means nobody is particularly enthused. Besides, Ben is trying to stay on the straight and narrow. Gwen would likely make him fall off the good guy wagon. Days of our Lives (DOOL) airs weekdays on NBC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
