Tenley Molzahn stole our hearts again, as the former Bachelor star joined Bachelor in Paradise (BIP) this summer.  However, while we want the reality starlet to be on our TV screens during every season of any Bachelor related series, it doesn't seem like that will be happening. It was rumored that after heading home from paradise that Molzahn had started up a casual relationship with Ben Higgins, but that the two ended their flirtation now that he has been cast as the new 2016 Bachelor. While we have been personally hoping that Tenley would pull a Nick Viall and show up during Higgin's season, it doesn't seem like the star wants to do that.

According to The Stir, Tenley might be done with reality TV, at least when it comes to being a contestant vying for the attention of a guy.

"Tenley wants to be pursued, not the pursuer, and she doesn't want to be put in the insecure position of competing with a bunch of girls," an insider explained to the site.

While it seemed like Ben and Tenley had a strong connection, at least from the Instagram pictures that pal JJ Lane posted below, it might not have been enough for Molzahn to put herself in the contestant position again.

"She and Ben had the opportunity to get to know each other and I think if they connected on the level that Kaitlyn and Nick did, it would be different," an insider explained to E! News, on why she isn't going to do the show.

While she might not be a competitor on the ABC series again, we are still hopefully that one of favorite Bachelor contestants in all of Bachelor Nation might one day get the call to be the next Bachelorette.
