we're doing something different

ABC Family: The Secret Life of the American Teenager poll results: you want ricky!

poll results: you want ricky!

poll results: you want ricky!

OK, you did it -- you set a record with our dream-classmate poll.

When we asked which "Secret Life of The American Teenager" character you wish went to your school, your reaction was, well, historic. This was our most popular poll ever!

No big surprise who won: Way more than half of you (59%) chose Ricky. Gee, we couldn't even see that one coming! For perspective, that's more than 46,000 votes just for Ricky ... which is more votes than we usually get for all the poll choices combined.

Amy came in a distant second with 18% (more than 14,000 votes), but Grace had almost as many fans -- she took 16% of the votes (about 12,500).

Which left hardly any for Ben, who scored just 6% in this poll. But that's still more than 4,700 votes for the Sausage Prince.

OK, we left some people out. Who else do you wish went to your school, and why? Or tell us why you'd want Ricky or Amy or Grace or Ben to go to your school. Think you'd hang with them?

Well I'm in college now but I wish Ashley would go to my school. We could be friends cause our personalities are alike, even if she has almost no friends (I'm like that too) maybe is cause she has not met someone that has similar ideas or interests. Plus she is beautiful, she would be like that friend that I secretly have a little crush on. Blush

i wish grace and Ben and Ricky went to my school. of course now days theres allot of Amy's around now days. but i think it would have been cool to go to school with Ricky cause he is such a bad boy and really good look'in and then we have Ben because i really like nice guys and he is like the sweetest even though at times he is a little annoying and then Grace because she's different not only is she cristian and she keeped up her virgin rights i had allot of respect for her because not only do allot of teens give it up right away and they need to have respect for them selfs. Marriage frist and then have kids is the way it should be, but where only human and this is all new not like back then, Where like 2009 so back then was then and now its not, But i'm glad she gave it up, because she gave it up for the one guy she truly loves and i think thats an awesome thing, not many teens do that, they just do it because everyone is doing it.

I completely get why most people want Amy and Ricky to end up together. Because of John. It would be the ideal situation. But unfortunately, it doesn't always work out that way. Sometimes, your true love is not the first father of your babies. Sometimes, he's the second father. I personally think that the show has made it crystal-clear that Ben and Amy belong together. And Jack and Grace. And Ricky and Adrian. If Ricky and Amy were meant to be, they would have fallen in love and gotten together a long time ago. But they didn't, despite having had a baby. Take Gilmore Girls, for example. Lorelai didn't end up with Rory's dad, Christopher. She ended up with Luke, her true love. Or take a real-life example. Heidi Klum didn't end up with the father of her firstborn, Flavio Briatore. She ended up with Seal, her second baby daddy.

Amy would be cool if she would lose the know-it-all attitude. She is so mean lately! Ricky is cute, but I think Grace would be best because you could definitely talk to her and trust her! Ben (and Amy) are really getting on my nerves lately, though.

Ricky/Darren is hot!! but as Ricky he is a massive prick. he cheats and skams everyone. i do beilieve that he is better with adrian because they are both sluts. but he looks so cute with amy and i think that the writers are going to put them together. it will just take time like next season or something.

i am sorry but Amy has been way moody lately i understand that she has a new baby but that doesn't mean that she has to act the way that she is acting. She is treating Ben her family and Ricky like dirt and I don't think that any of them deserve what Amy is doing to them.

<3<3<3

i know. way to crush their self confidence even more.

breyonnia's picture

well i understand that ricky is HOT but i say that ricky needs to stay out of amy's life but i understand that he cant just because he knocked her up and now they have a son toghether but he needs to understand that he needs to grow up and be more mature and be a man like he is suppose to be so he can take care of his son and on the other hand i feel as if ben does need to grow up a little a realize that he cant and will not be able to have sex with amy because she just had a baby and she just learned her leason and she is not going to have sex with him for a very long time so HE NEEDS TO GET OVER IT and SUCK IT UP!!!!!!!!!!

goodytoo924's picture

ok so this is way random but i was bummed when i never saw ricky like at some football game drumming...there was one scene at band camp but does not really count there was no drama. and now bc his work nd john im guessing the band is history now Sad

RICKY IS DOING THE SAME THING BASICALLY WANTS TO BE COMITTED (OR HOWEVER YOU SPELL IT) TO ADRIAN BUT CANT KEEP HIS PANTS ON...AND SEX WASNT EVEN IN CONVERSATION(OR HOWEVER YOU SPELL IT) FOR BEN AND AMY IN THE START OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP...IT WAS AFTER SHE HAD THE BABY

~bReEzy~

dancechica224's picture

I hate Ricky...he doesnt respect women at all who would want to be with a guy like that. I love Ben he is a very mature guy for his age and I think him and Amy will work it out this is just a very ruff time for her I cant say I wouldnt do the same. I dont think she is mad at Ben she is just overwhelmed with everything going on with her family and also taking care of a baby. Give her a break she will get the hang of it.

livelaughlove_'s picture

Ben's mature? Seriously? I'm pretty sure most people think Ricky is way more mature than Ben. Let's see.

Ben doesn't know how to take care of a baby, let alone himself OR Amy. He only dated Amy to have sex with her, which is what a lot of people keep forgetting, and he still only wanted to have sex with her when they were in a more serious relationship even though he knew what she was going through. Since he didn't get what he wanted, he cheated on her in Italy. That is SO mature, right? haha .

tslotat718's picture

Yes, Ben is mature.
Of course, Ben doesn't know how to take care of a baby. HE'S 16! He's not supposed to. Yes, in the beginning he only wanted Amy for sex because he's a guy and is a virgin aka desperate. But that plan backfired because he fell madly in love with her. And stop jumping to conclusions. You don't know for sure that he's cheated. I personally don't think he did. We'll have to wait and see...

Ben+Amy=true Heart eyes

livelaughlove_'s picture

Ben is nowhere near mature. I don't think he loves Amy otherwise he wouldn't have cheated on her. Pleaaasee, I don't even HAVE to jump to conclusions. It's just obvious that he cheated. What's with that picture of that girl on the motorcycle with him? Anyway, even if he didn't cheat, I'd still feel the same way about the mature thing. Doesn't really matter if he cheated or not.

tslotat718's picture

And Ricky is mature? PLEASE! Ben is way more mature than Ricky. Doesn't matter anyway, you and I will never agree on anything.

Ben+Amy=true Heart eyes

livelaughlove_'s picture

LOL that's okay, I respect your opinion.

tslotat718's picture

Thanks, I respect yours too. We're just different and have different tastes, that's all. No reason to be at each other's throats. Who knows, you could be right. Only the writers know for sure what is on that show that we all love. Smiling

Ben+Amy=true Heart eyes

Haha, I completely agree. (:

I know. Gasp I was just speechless from the fact that we actually AGREED on something. LOL Big smile Big smile Big smile Big smile Big smile
You're a cool person, livelaughlove_ Cool, despite the fact that I disagree with you on pretty much everything. You're always respectful to me even though I can come off as a [filtered word]. But it's mostly because of personal experience which makes me take this show personally.

Ben+Amy=true Heart eyes

livelaughlove_'s picture

Oh haha, yeah we actually agreed Big smile LOL. Thank you, you're pretty cool too! Nahhh, you don't come off as a [filtered word], just a personally affected fan who's serious about the issues on the show, and who wants everything to work out great for the characters Smiling
