LOVE ISLAND 17 - oh Maura Maura Maura

[tenthstreet]

Hello

I think Michael at the end said he was looking forward to getting to know Joanna better but he was definitely sending Amber non verbal signals during their chat. I can see why Amber thinks she still has a strong chance with him but because he didn't actually say anything explicitly, Michael can and (probably) will say that she misunderstood or that it's all in her head.

But neither did he say he might go back to Amber.

If (and I mean if) Amber has been telling people he said he might go back to her, that's is a lie

Or is it a case of other islanders have drawn their own conclusions and turned that into 'micheal said'

Amber is desperate to have Michael back.

Ovie and Jordan are both being treated like mugs by Anna, glad that Ovie can see it. Shame Jordan will probably take her back.

And I think Joanna is just trying to pile on the humiliation with Amber. Michael has already picked you once, why get him to do it again in front of Amber

I'm no fan of hers but the other girls have repeatedly told her that Michael still holds a flame for Amber and that he didn't completely end things with Amber during their chat. I don't think she's unreasonable to want to know what's actually happened.

I don’t think Amber has been saying that, I think she inferred from their flirty chat (as did most of us) that there might still be something there and as Michael didn’t explicitly shut it down then he is fair game. I think Amber has been getting opinions from the rest of the girls as to whether they think she’s still in with a chance.

Stupid question. Can a man pick a man to couple up with? Could Ovie pick Jordan?

So neither are lying.

He didnt explicitly shut it down. That doesnt mean theres still a chance.

She has been getting opinions from the girls and someone is relaying this as a converstation that's happened.

Or did micheal tell joanna he did shut it down

I am so confused by this situation as it seems neither of them is lying as such.

Just watched First Look. Michael is an arse. I don't blame Joanna for wanting to know what's going on and talking to both of them even it was the idea of the producers. Ovie was quite right telling Anna to sod off. She's an arse too.

I cant help wonder if anyone is going to point out that what Anna is doing is the same, if not worse than Danny?

I mean point it out to Anna

Or did micheal tell joanna he did shut it down

Yeah, he had a wishy washy, flirty, and slightly suggestive chat with Amber and didn't completely shut it down and Amber has gone away feeling like there's a chance. He didn't say there was though.

He then went back to Joanna and made it seem like the chat was just him apologising for hurting her and firmly telling her that it was over so they could all just move on and get along.

I think he wanted to kind of have his cake and eat it and keep his options open a bit but now that he's been backed into a corner, Amber will end up embarrassed during this conversation.

But Micheal didnt say the door was still open. I agree it was a flirty chat. But he could easily deny that.

The fact that Amber has gone away believing there is still a chance and the other girls agreeing with her, doesnt mean the door is open.

It does seem he is being vague with everyone.

Hold on..I don't understand why people feel sorry for Jordan?!

Didn't Jordan want to get with Jourdan but she shut him down for Danny?

The only reason he didn't stick with Jourdan was because she decided she liked Danny more, otherwise he would of been walking in with Jourdan!

Does Anna know this?!

I don't feel sorry for Jordan at all! He is a snake imo just like Anna!

Or have I missed something?!

Taking horrifically strong pain killers at the moment so my brain is frazzled!

Someone help clear this up for me!

I am shocked that Amber would even consider going back to Michael - has she no self respect??!!

Anna is appalling - sadly I think Jordan will happily recouple with her if/when she chooses him but I hope another girl chooses Ovie.

I wish I knew what was happening next with voting/recoupling.

Didn't Jordan want to get with Jourdan but she shut him down for Danny?

It didnt really show you. He chatted to her, they slept in the same bed, but weren't cuddling.

The next day he said he really missed Anna and Danny was cracking in with Jourdan.

It didnt really show if Jourdan pied him first or he started missing Anna and just didnt bother chasing Jourdan.

I know that Jordan did tell Anna he slept alone for the last 2 nights, but didnt say wether that was through choice of his or not.

@ProteinshakesandAntonsAss I don’t think from what we have seen that Amber has said to the girls that Michael said that she was still in with a chance either. I think She has discussed it with them and from Ambers description of the flirting combined with the fact that he didn’t explicitly shut it down and the fact that they themselves witnessed the laughing and the looks Michael is apparently giving Amber have come to the conclusion that there is still feelings there and they have now presented that as fact to Joanna.

Which is a shame because Michael is going to deny deny deny and Amber is going to end up hurt all over again when the reality is he was being flirtatious and keeping his options open.

I’m absolutely loving Ovie being all ‘go get yo woman’ to Jordan, coupled with Jordan saying ‘well why didn’t you just tell him how you felt’, Anna is playing them off against each other and will end up with no one at this rate. Which given the way she has behaved is about what she deserves.

Hmm we need to know more!!

I just don't get the whole feel sorry for Jordan thing..I just have a feeling he is a snake

Whatever happens we need to make sure we keep Ovie in the villa!

Michael is apparently giving Amber have come to the conclusion that there is still feelings there and they have now presented that as fact to Joanna.

That's my impression too. Which is why the 3 way convo wont end well. Because neither Amber or Micheal are lying.

First time commenting but have been reading the threads. Jordan was definitely interested in Jourdan and I’m sure that they shared a bed but at one point he decided to stick with Anna but I don’t know if thats because jourdan preferred Danny or Jordan preferred Anna. So I don’t get the sympathy for him either. Doesn’t look like anna will be finding out about it though... sadly

When Jordan says "Well why didn't you just tell him how you felt?" I wish he would stay strong and ditch Anna like Ovie has. Then she would have no one. But I have a feeling Jordan will take her back.

Ovie is no mug

In that link someone just posted about Amy and Darius, she looks completely different! Except in the last pic with Kem and Chris then she looks how she does now.

So I ordered my LI water bottle with my name on...in pink

OMG @CarolDanvers
we should all get LI water bottles! Mine will say Team Maura... or maybe Fanny Flutters

Haha I have a LI water bottle as well. I bought DD and I one at the beginning of the series.
