Default Why would Clem grow to LIKE LIKE Ben?

You know what I'm saying. Why do some of you see the potential for them growing into a love interest, had Ben lived to see her "loving" years?

(And if all you have to say is, there's nobody else left, all I have to say is: NO. Just no.)

I see potential for love interact Ben+Clem at 10 years later, if Ben would't die.

As Clem's adoptive father (i.e. Lee), I now see it as my duty to drop Ben every time in future playthroughs.

but WHY?

I don't see what about Ben would appeal to Clementine romantically. He seems more like the "best friend" who maybe wants to get with her, but she just wants to pat his head and tell him he's "nice."

Yes, he seems her like best friend, because she's a child, but who knows what would be in future, if Ben would alive.

Maybe if Ben grows up and grows a pair. I don't think so, though.

Well if Ben managed to survive he was going to be a stronger person, but Clem is really too young for him. I mean, he's like 17 and Clem is 9. Maybe after a long time, if both managed to stay alive for 7 years, which is very unlikely, especially for Ben

I don't think age really matters anymore......given the circumstances =/

and Ben is dead. So it will NEVER happen.

True. How do you think may Clem love anybody again as she loved Lee? (as father)

No! Kenny managed to save him and they are now looking for Clem with Carley!

More seriously: I said IF Ben was alive, and I think age still matters. Maybe Clem could have a crush on Ben in the future since he's the youngest group member, but he's almost an adult, he can look for slightly older women.

So the "desperation" argument? Clem would want Ben as the last possible guy on earth?

eh... I don't think that would be enough.

You can't be choosy in a ZA, who else is she gonna pick kenny? Lol. Mostly she might like ben because he is the closest to her age the rest are adults.

I had idea anyone thought that. Its a good thing he died then, since "stay the fuck away from Ben" would have made for a much less poignant final piece of advice.

No, not only for that. Young girls tend to have crushes with older boys, and Ben is a nice, more or less good looking and older than Clem. The problem is that Ben wouldn't be interested in a 9 year old, boys his age like girls slightly younger than them, but 8 years his way to much.

she will have to move on eventually. She'll love others in the future I'm sure. You can't dwell on it forever you know, Lee wouldn't want Clem to never love another person ever again

What? Clementine and... Ben?!
I wanna know what kind of weed gives this effect, jajaja. Well, I'm a good "father" - in my game, Ben is long gone. As a hero, of course, if you know what I mean.

Ewwwww. He's at least 8 years older than her. Which means when she's 18 he's 26. You see people doing that and you think he's a dirtbag bordering on pedophilia and she's dumb, naive, and being used. Zombies being everywhere doesn't really change that.
