It was date night for The Bachelor’s Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson last night. The two stepped out in L.A. at Svedka’s 2nd Annual Night of a Billion Reality Stars bash with fellow reality fixtures such as Jon Gosselin, Kyle Richards, Ali Fedotowsky, Teresa Giudice, Gretchen Rossi. Like a C-list Who’s Who right there. Clearly, after everything that’s gone down, Ben and Courtney were the center of attention. They said that’s starting to fade as they settle into normal life, however, and they really couldn’t be happier for their 15 minutes to fade away. “It’s getting close,” Flajnik said of returning to normalcy after the past year. “Now that the show’s over and the star’s fading … [it’s] wonderful for us.” “We’re getting there,” Courtney Robertson added. Although the couple have an army of skeptics, they say they’ve learned “lots” about each other since the end of the Bachelor’s filming and its aftermath. “The thing people don’t know is that when the show was airing we spent a lot of time together, and we were off almost every weekend,” Ben explained. “We got to know each other really well.” As for wedding plans? “No date set,” Robertson admitted. “We’re engaged, dating, taking it slow . We love each other very much. It took the pressure off. ” Mused Flajnik: “We kind of looked back at some of the other Bachelor relationships that didn’t work out and the reason for that is you have so much pressure.” “Pressure to move in together and set a date and all this kind of stuff … Let’s figure out who we are together before we do any of that and take the pressure off.” If they do tie the knot, it would be in “Arizona or California somewhere,” he said. Will it ever get to that point? Vote below : [Photos: Pacific Coast News]
