On The Young and the Restless (YR), Victoria has accepted that Billy isn’t coming back to her. He’s moved on and seemingly happy with Phyllis.

She also fell and hit her head after Abby (Melissa Ordway) pushed her, then passed out, then got a concussion diagnosis, then spontaneously slept with Ben Hochman (Ben Hermes).

The last couple of events are likely connected. But does that means she and Ben could never develop real feelings for each other? Over 5000 viewers played relationship therapist:

The Yuck Factor
With everyone from Ashley (Eileen Davidson) and Ravi (Abhi Sinha) to Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) and Jack (Peter Bergman) voicing how scummy and disgusting Ben is, 80% of you are joining the “Ewww!” camp.

Ben comes on to every woman he meets, he’s got a wife he’s fighting for custody of his kid against, plus a vaguely shady business.

Victoria (Amelia Heinle) can – and should – do a lot better. She can fight for Billy (Jason Thompson), she can make a play for someone new, heck, she can sign up for Zack’s (Ryan Ashton) dating app. Just stay away from Ben!

Say Yes To the Mess
Don’t be so hasty, caution 20%. It’s slim pickings in Genoa City, these days. Victoria is either related to the hottest guys – Nick (Joshua Morrow), Noah (Robert Adamson) – or recently fired them – Cane (Daniel Goddard).

Scott (Daniel Hall) is dating Sharon (Sharon Case) while absolutely not flirting with Abby. Victoria and Neil (Kristoff St. John) already blew their chance.

Ben might just be Victoria’s best option, and she should go for it! At worse, she’ll have some no strings fun with a guy who’s the poster child for no strings fun. At best, Billy will get so jealous he’ll realize what he stupidly gave up.

And then she’ll have two hot guys fighting over her!
