We've come to the end of a journey, Bachelor Nation. After a tumultuous season of tears, tantrums and twins, Monday night's season finale of "The Bachelor" may have been the most dramatic and heartbreaking one in the history of the franchise.
Although Ben Higgins told both Lauren Bushnell and Joelle "JoJo" Fletcher that he loved them, he ended up popping the million dollar question to Lauren, who accepted without hesitation. Though JoJo was left devastated, it was announced on "After The Final Rose" that she will be the next Bachelorette.
Once again, the Internet has done what it does best -- reacted in the most hilarious way and had us laughing along.
My #TheBachelor drinking game for tonight: every time Ben says he's in love with two women don't drink anything because you'll get too drunk

The shade Ben's mom is throwing about Ben being in love with two women could shelter them all from that Jamaica sun. #TheBachelor

Ben kisses Lauren. Waves crash. Thunder rolls. He and Jojo have been tested, he says. By her jerky brothers? #TheBachelor
