Love Island 7- Please someone start a new thread!

[Yamayo]

Someone had to...

I'm finding Michael a bit creepy as time goes on. Don't know what it is....

I think Curtis must know the new girl. They often put people in who already know others.

Either Curtis was told to go int thevgarden and act shocked and he is terrible actor

Or he knows her.

Curtis was told to go in and act shocked I think. Her bio and everything is up on the app and it doesn't mention Curtis normally it's the first thing said if they know someone in the villa. Also she says her type are people who work out loads and have a great sense of humour. Which doesn't read like Curtis to me. She will play it safe and go for Tom 😴😴

I really liked Yewande but I've gone right off her now. She's really got a mean streak in her that's well and truly rearing its head.

I thought that Danny was bullshitting her but I actually don't think he is now. I hope he likes the new girl.

I think the reason the dates are awkward is because there are camera men literally in front of them filming them. I'd challenge anyeone not to feel awkward with a crew two feet away. It's the reason all the dates are awkward.🤣

I'm also thinking Danny is a bit hurt by Yewandes rejection and the fact she's being dishonest about the fact she's rejecting him and pretending she's not. It's put him in a very difficult position, and I think it's unpleasant that she's making out he's needy.

Apparent the new girl has her eye on Danny and Michael. That should be interesting!

I agree with what you said about Danny and Yewande Bluntness. I've gone totally off Yewande. No idea why she's in there because she said she's rarely dated and spends all her time at work or in the library. I'd give her up as a bad job if I was Danny.

On the Yewande/Danny situation I am so on the fence.

I am like her. I dont like talking about my feelings. However, she has chosen to go on a show where that's what people do.

In real life Danny would do my head in. He isnt coming across as needy.

But on love island you are there to meet someone that you want to date in the real world. If you are with someone who isnt feeling it, you need to know sooner rather than later so you can move on and find someone else. I totally get why he is wanting reassurance that this is the right couple for both of them.

I totally got what she was saying last night but didnt like how she was saying it. I think she us making him feel more and more insecure. That makes him want reassurance, which turns her off even more.

I dont think he is for her and she needs to tell him that straight.

I did like her, but I am going off her, after last night. But still not made my mind up fully about what I think.

I do think, that if the new girl likes Danny, we could see another side of Yewande.

Not sure who else I would put Danny with.

Apparent the new girl has her eye on Danny and Michael.

I might be wrong, but I dont think Micheal will be interested.

I might be wrong, but I dont think Micheal will be interested.

I think you're right but if she asks him on a date Amber will be absolutely fuming like she was last time.

Fraxion oh God yeah. But I think he will be able to put her mind at rest quickly.

On another note. I really want them to make a list of all the make up the girls use and the fake lashes they use!!!!

@Proteinshakesandtears the make up is on the app to buy with all the clothes and sunglasses. No lashes though.

Just caught up -

I thought that about the dates Bluntness. I'm sure some people can act like they're not there, don't think I could easily.

I'm feeling soft and fuzzy about the Lucie/Maura friendship. Some people you just click with. Some of the other hypocritical biatches are now ever-so-slightly shitting themselves at the prospect of Lucie's popularity.

Is Yewande a bit tipsy?
I wondered this because she starts shouting randomly in convos. And that staccato talking ??

The whole country probably assumed Maura had slept with a lot of people because the way she talks about sex is as if she has it all the time
Well if she had a 9 yr then a 2 yr relationship she no doubt did have it all the time but mainly with those two. Maybe she misses it? I've had the best most frequent, dare I say ...experimental sex in committed relationships. It's bizarre that women still have to defend themselves about liking sex.

Don't think Amber has any worries r.e. the new girl.

.

I think for me it's yewandes dishonesty. She's clearly not willing to be involved with Danny, to the extent he thinks she's got the "ick" but keeps proclaiming it's him, not her, she fancies him, and it's just he needs constant reassurance and she's not going to give that.

That's not ok. Isn't it basically gaslighting? She's making out he's the one at fault. She's basically using him to stay in a couple, and has no intention of being romantically involved with him, and lying that she is.

She's clearly completely and utterly rejecting him. Whilst saying she's not, and then saying the problem is him and his neediness.

And if he goes off with someone else, she's going to play devastated and make out he's a bad guy. It's not right.

No I agree.

It's palpable though to everyone that she's got the ick and is rejecting him. No matter what words come out of her mouth.

ooooohbetty thank you had a look and there isnt a lot. They must wear more than that! I love false lashes though and their lashes always look amazing!

Bluntness100 you have a point. I suppose it's hard because she isnt willing to give him something he needs. Which I get, but she thinks it's all him. She seems to not want to give him even an inkling of that she likes him but wants to take it slow.

But then I do think she has point. He cant say his head wont ever be turned. I think because she doesnt believe that, she isnt willing to open up. She doesnt trust him.

Personally, I think it's a case of she wont open up with anyone. Because of the show, everything is accelerated they just arent compatible. Not sure she would find someone that is happy to sit back and not have any reassurance, in this situation.

She really needs to be honest with him and let him look elsewhere.

How can Yewande accelerate her feelings just because they're in an artificial environment though? She probably hasn't figured out whether he's for her or not. A lot of them haven't- it's been days. The only difference is that some of them are acting like they're in committed, real relationships and spinning all the lines. I think that's worse, when down the line, any one of them could be dropped for someone else as is the nature of the show.

I think it's more than taking it slow though, there is no romance at all and she spends no time with him. Yesterday we saw he said he'd backed off on everyone's advice and not approached her all day for a change and she didn't approach him so they didn't speak all day. Which isn't easy to do in that small space.

I don't think she's taking it slow, I really think it's complete and utter rejection. And she needs to be honest with him, because he's clearly out of his depth and has no clue what to do about it. As she's saying one thing and doing another.

It's at a really bad level when one party says they think the other has the Ick. Who wants to think that about someone.

This really isn't taking it slow, this is total rejection.

She probably hasn't figured out whether he's for her or not

But to figure that out you have to be willing to spend time with the person, and she's not even willing to do that. She's basically avoiding him.

I think that is the issue.

I dont believe she is into him at all. She said herself she is normally the one more interested. I suspect that many men in the outside world like her, but as soon at they put effort in she finds in unattractive.

Loads of us do. Inclulding me. The amount of times I havent fancied a great a guy who is really interested in me and shows it, is stupid. I look back now and think 'what the fuck were you thinking?' To myself.

I think she has decided he isnt for her. He is picking up on that, feeling rejected (cause he is) and rather than just be honest, she is making out it's his fault.

She needs to be completely honest. She cant love faster and he either accepts that and gives her space and not look for reassurance or he moves on.

It's the fact that she is making out he is doing something very wrong, that's the issue for me

But then I do think she has point. He cant say his head wont ever be turned.

See, I don't remember him using those words

The only difference is that some of them are acting like they're in committed, real relationships and spinning all the lines. I think that's worse, when down the line, any one of them could be dropped for someone else as is the nature of the show.

But that’s the premise of the programme, to be the most convincingly in love couple. But it’s nonsense when a) you’ve just met, and b) had such little agency in the matter.

Danny's my favourite boy (based on looks) and I felt so sorry for him last night. Poor sad puppy face.

I don't think that Yewande has done anything wrong other than not be upfront with him. She asked him if his head would be turned, hoping that she would have an easy way out but this has failed.

I do wonder why she's on this show if she's not prepared to talk about her feels.

She asked him if someone else came in if he'd want to get to know them, and he said on a friendship level not a romantic one. But the relarionship has deteriorated to such an extent I don't think it's fixable.
