I don't understand why Stephanie is throwing her toys out the pram. What does jack owe her, she's acting like he's her boyfriend and made a commitment. Why is she shouting at him and calling him a dickhead?

MissDollyMix · 19/07/2018 14:25

Ha! Georgia should choose Josh. That would give Kaz something to chew on 😂

If you really want to see controlling behaviour - see first look. Newbie Stephanie has a real go at Jack2 for not telling her earlier than he is into Laura2. She's acting like an injured party / wronged woman and is visibly angry. Perhaps that will put Laura1's fairly muted behaviour in perspective - Laura1 reacted far less and she had been coupled up with Jack2 for a fortnight (and he basically ended it with her to crack on with Laura2). Laura1 was a model of constraint by contrast with Stephanie

None of it makes any sense. The islanders and their journeys just aren't flowing very well this year.

Bluntness100 · 19/07/2018 14:26

I'd agree hmc. We must be missing something, I can't see why she'd attack him like that.

MissDollyMix · 19/07/2018 14:27

Yes, it certainly feels quite disjointed!

hmcAsWas · 19/07/2018 14:27

We surely must be missing something - because that reaction was OTT

EverybodyLovesRaymond · 19/07/2018 14:28

My DH thinks Laura2 is really nice looking. I agree.

TatianaLarina · 19/07/2018 14:29

Stephanie strikes me as fairly stupid.

Bluntness100 · 19/07/2018 14:31

I can't believe she shouts at him are you thick and calls him a dickhead. She clearly thought he was going to pick her and is fucked off. I'm sure if something had gone on they'd have shown in or she'd have said.

She can't be that arrogant surely?

Twogirlsandme · 19/07/2018 14:32

We've barely even seen Stephanie so clearly something more has gone on with Jack2 for her to react like that.
I'm guessing Sam and Georgia refuse to pick other people and go home?
Most interested to see who Paul chooses. Hoping it will be Alexandra.

WhyOhWine · 19/07/2018 14:34

I don't think Laura wolud be a bunny boiler. She actually has been ok after both splits and nicer than she needed to be to Meg (once she got the initial slag comment off her chest). I think she does need to feel secure in a relationship and didn't with Jack or Wes (because they are not suited and she knew it).

I was I think a nightmare in my previous (2 year) relationship before DH. Not the guy's fault because he was a genuinely nice guy but i think i felt a bit out of my league as he was from a much wealthier background, very popular etc. and I felt insecure. I was not the same at any stage in my relationship with DH (coming up to 20 years now) or even any previous relationship. Just somethng about that relationship made me act very insecurely. he did well to put up with it for 2 years!

But to get to the point, I think Laura is quite astute and knew they were not right for her but did not want to admit it (not least because of game) but it has led to the insecure behaviour

MsJolly · 19/07/2018 14:34

I took the Steph thing from the day before when he cracking on to her fairly heavily and that from that she thought he liked her. She was just calling him out in that and saying he should have told her rather than her hearing it from other people-and I think she was angry as he told her she was way down on the list of people he was telling. I didn't think she was aggressive and I didn't think he was a bit of a dickhead.

It must be a right hit house in there though with everyone's emotions all over the place .

MsJolly · 19/07/2018 14:35

Hot house!

MsJolly · 19/07/2018 14:36

I did think he was a bit of a dickhead

Eleanorsummer · 19/07/2018 14:37

I love Laura1, hope she wins! I like Alexandra too, but that's about it.

Shortstuff08 · 19/07/2018 14:37

What's first look?

What am I missing?

unique1986 · 19/07/2018 14:45

Haven't watched, hmmm feels quite staged this Stephanie thing?

unique1986 · 19/07/2018 14:46

Do anyone of them speak without Producers telling them what to say/do
ffffffffffffffssssssssss

MrsFassy · 19/07/2018 14:50

I'd say Stephanie's reaction is purely that of a girl not used to rejection. She comes across as quite arrogant, like she can't quite believe not only did Jack2 want someone else instead of her, but he chose to speak to Alex1 ahead of her.

I agree with those who say Laura1 seems insecure, but that doesn't make her a bad person. I think it's very likely the environment in there is magnifying everything and she's 'desperate' purely in the sense of she knows she has to be with someone to stay.

I do feel for her, but she's made the wrong decisions in there from day one. I really hope Paul chooses her and she is able to relax and enjoy her remaining time in there. If she does that, then I think she could definitely win.

MrsFassy · 19/07/2018 14:53

Apologies for the amount of 'in theres' in my last post.

Bluntness100 · 19/07/2018 14:54

No I don't think Laura 1 s behaviour makes her a bad person, I don't think it's malicious, it just comes from a place of insecurity, but nor do I think that makes it acceptable.

I also think it's fair to say Stephanie doesn't take rejection well..🤣

unique1986 · 19/07/2018 14:59

I bet the producers tell Jack that he has to wait till the evening to tell Stephanie etc

unique1986 · 19/07/2018 15:00

contrived..

MrsFassy · 19/07/2018 15:05

It wasn't the evening, it was still day time, and perhaps Jack didn't think he owed her anything as he'd made her no promises, so didn't feel he needed to run to tell her immediately.
