Look, judge me for going early but I'm down the pub again tomorrow and I need to make sure your commentaries and observations are all being jotted down in an orderly fashion 😂

Be darlings though, and fill up the other one first....

I suspect Davide has been hurt in the past and is wary of letting his guard down. He can do the flirty banter and cheeky snog stuff but the emotional letting go he came so. She’s pushing his buttons because she has lied to him and she’s done it more than once.

Whatever George is now saying post LI it makes no sense if nothing happened that she asked him not to say anything. 🤷‍♀️

Hurt in the past.😂😂Come on, Ekin was sneaking around on the terrace. She keeps asking, 'What does he want from me', she doesn't get it, a pretty face and a nice tan ain't going to cut it with a man like Davide, he is far, far, far too good for her.
Ekin in her head is a 10, Davide is like bah a 1. Liaaarrr.😂

I have to admit Luca pinning Gemma with Billy wtf a moment. A bit cringe.

Picoloangel · 18/07/2022 14:48

@Hrpuffnstuff1 I’m not talking about Davide being hurt by ES I mean in the past. I think ES is good entertainment but she’s also a liar. He seems v wary and not in a Jack Nicholson in The Shining Luca way.

TitsInAbsentia · 18/07/2022 14:50

First look is up. It's snog, marry, pie time. Whereas I'd prefer the twitter game right now.

No wonder Luca and Jacques got on so well, two of a kind.

Andrew finally calls out Luca and Dami tonight.

I agree about Davide, if it was the other way round....

Ahh interesting, I disagree about Davide. I feel like he’s done a number on her, where he’s convinced her that one lie justifies him messing around with other girls and constant negging. As far as I’m concerned she lied once about Jay when they were barely together and I believe nothing happened in casa. Davide has used this against her for weeks, it’s actually quite toxic.

NeolithicSkull · 18/07/2022 15:17

You could see Gemma was confused - and quite rightly, she couldn't work out what she had done to make Luca so furious. He was basically just saying he was fuming and about to explode, he couldn't really articulate however what the issue was or why she was in the wrong. Because saying he has a problem with her having lighthearted banter with a member of the opposite sex makes him sound unhinged.

He was defending and openly encouraging the likes of Andrew and Dami for their behaviour but furious at Gemma for merely allowing someone to gently flirt with her. He would perhaps be better suited to Love Island Saudi Arabia.

WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps · 18/07/2022 15:18

NGL, I am getting a bit pissed off with how the show's producers are engineering spats between the 2 most solid couples. Gemma and Luca and Ekin-Su and Davide. (I mean they're not perfect or ideal but are the only reasonably solid ones.) WTF are they doing? Confused

Trying to make out Ekin-Su shagged that bloke in Casa Amor, and trying to make out Gemma was up to something with Billy. Neither is true. Also... why is Billy trying to make out he and Gemma had something in Casa Amor? They didn't. And him saying 'I'm on Love Island - if I fancy something I will flirt with it' made me feel sick. IT? WTAF? He is ugly inside and out.

At the moment there seems to be no obvious winner.

Yeah this. Luca has the vibe of the guy from the Netflix drama YOU.

LOL. No he's not! Davide is decent looking but he is punching above his weight with Ekin-Su. Not the other way round!

Has he heck.😂Don't equate English pop-psychology crybaby with an Italian mindset.
Davide ain't chasing no woman. Ever. He has boundaries-standards but he has zero respect for her that's why he kissed those two other girls. Ekin is pretty but clueless.
It could be he's used Ekin just to stay in the show.

It's like Jaques, he's a typical rugby player, this ADHD is bollox, he got caught out and messed up. Most rugby players are outplaying the field. Fact. He couldn't hack it when Adam came in. Unlike Andrew who's stood back and watched Tasha mug him off every show.😂

Love island is funny because it's a condensed snapshot of idiocy whilst dating. Casa Amor is a boy's and girl's night out, which happens every week in real life. Everyone knows what happens on these nights out. Jealousy is mate guarding, women manage this completely differently from men.

TitsInAbsentia · 18/07/2022 15:33

As if Gemma would be flirting with Billy the "kid who dresses like a Wetherspoons plate" (@Prinnny that is a GOLD description there!) might look like a child but is just as toxic in his beliefs of how girls/women can be treated. He lit the blue touchpaper knowing full well drama would keep him in the spotlight but I think he'll come out and find the dating pool drier than the sahara right now.

Hope he gets a few pies along with Luca tonight. Christ I hope Gemma pies him or Luca and chooses to snog/marry anyone else but them!

I find this show increasingly more difficult to watch, and it saddens me that this passes for entertainment.

I'm going to continue watching only because I live in (probably misguided) hope that at least one of the girls will come to their senses and kick her partner into touch.

😂
Why do women always say this punching bullshit?
😂
I don't agree. What he wants is a woman like his nana who looks like a supermodel. Ekin is way, way, way out of his league. She's like, why doesn't he chase me.
She doesn't understand his value system at all.😂
I do think it's run its course now, he's beginning to look a bit like a bully.

Luca handled Jaques's appearance, Gemma's ex, but has thrown a wobbly over Billy. I don't get it. Billy is one of those guys who would chat your partner up whilst you were ordering drinks at a bar if you were out. I don't like his character,, he's a snide little wazzock. I'm being kind.😂

Ilovefishcakes201 · 18/07/2022 16:04

Davide does like ES but he finds it difficult to get over her lies.
I think the worst is the sneaking around and lying about it.
Last night she had a chance to come clean but she didn’t and he knew she was lying again.

TitsInAbsentia · 18/07/2022 16:06

Things I'd like to hear following "Tomorrow night....."

  • all the boys get told their off to casa amor, but they're actually taken straight to the airport and sent home

Zampa · 18/07/2022 16:23

I'm confused when people talk about Ekin's lies (plural). She lied about Jay and the terrace and that's it afaik.

No-one knows what happened in Casa Amor with George. She's admitted to spooning and I don't think it's right to assume more happened, especially as George has since played it down.

Picoloangel · 18/07/2022 16:24

@Ilovefishcakes201 100% agree with this. It’s the lying. Doesn’t matter that they were hardly together she mad him look like an idiot by lying. She isn’t trustworthy and he’s entitled on her past behaviour to not take her at her word. He isn’t being abusive, he’s being realistic!

@TitsInAbsentia I would love that. That’s the show I want!

A580Hojas · 18/07/2022 16:28

I agree with Petronus and Lampzade about Davide. The idea that he's hesitant about getting close to Ekin-Su for fear of getting hurt seriously makes me lol.

Picoloangel · 18/07/2022 16:40

Well even if it’s because he doesn’t want to be made to look like an idiot that’s fair enough.
