The rest of the thread title

"For it's not easy to not get lipsed on the down low without someone getting lippy. Casper is still dying of cringe and Shitlid sees no way out. For we are all scrambling for our dignity, whilst watching the utter mockery"

It was a joint effort by us all.

Polly looks much better with her hair down. So did the flirty girl that left yesterday!(forgotten her name already!).

Has Holly really gone home? (🤞🤞🤞)

dapsnotplimsolls · 22/10/2024 22:30

I suspect Caspar wants a nice biddable slim young thing who looks nothing like his sister, loves long walks and dogs and will produce a fine litter of sprogs.

LessonsinChemistryandLove · 22/10/2024 22:32

Why do Polly and Emma keep talking about lack of intimacy and you don’t tell me I’m beautiful, how many ways do these guys need to say they don’t fancy you!! It’s driving my crazy

I don't actually think Amy's right for Luke.

I think it could work with someone willing to tease him a bit and have a laugh about his cheese. I think he'd take that quite well and it would diffuse it a bit.

I think he's sensitive and actually quite sweet underneath it all.

He just needs someone to really like him and I think he'd tone it down a bit and give himself permission to be more real.

He's just a bit scared and puts on this show. A bit like Emma really.

I wish he’d got Emma.

Gaston has given me the ick 🤢🤢🤢

dapsnotplimsolls · 22/10/2024 22:36

I'm trying to imagine them together (not like that). Hmmm.

Ah Kristina is adorable 😫

I feel sorry for her. Kieran is complex. I feel like he would always had got to this point and he'd look for a reason to get out. Lucky for him he has an out with the PMDD.

SilentSheldon · 22/10/2024 22:39

Sorry to ask again because I’m not really giving folk a chance to respond, but I missed the cold sore thing.

What was it mentioned at the commitment ceremony and what was it a reason (or not) for?

Adam's been quite sweet in tonight's episode, but I still don't think they're going to last, and if I was Emma I'd have walked by now. The thought of intimacy with her seems to provoke a look on Caspar’s face like he’s being asked to drink rotten eggs, it can't be doing her self-esteem any good. And all that stuff he came out with tonight about future girlfriends just confirms how much he's not seeing a future with her.

I do something called BodyCombat (when I can be bothered). It’s a martial arts cardio workout where you’re punching and roundhouse kicking the shit out of thin air.

I’ve often imagined my DP’s face when doing this. It’s very cathartic 🤣🤣

I'm another Body Combat fan! It's my happy place 🤣

Kieran has had a (convenient) cold sore for ages so they haven't been 'intimate'. At the CC, the discussion was mostly about the PMDD and he admitted he wasn't sure if he could be in a relationship with someone who has it.

I’m surprised Alex hasn’t been removed by the show for being so aggressive. He’s utterly vile.
He is very capable of being violent I think.

I personally think that emotional and mental abuse is scarier than physical because it is constant and so menacing / underhand.

It was Kierans (dubious) excuse for their lack of intimacy

Been on pause for a while so got slightly behind, but Caspar really has a problem with Emma being a strong woman, doesn't he. 🙄He only seems to be able to feel close to her when he's perceiving her as vulnerable. Don't know if he's said anything about her height but I wouldn't be surprised if he found that a turn-off too.

I don't think it's that. She extremely camp.

SilentSheldon · 22/10/2024 22:51

Ah. Thank you daps

I could understand a wee kiss (or a wider one - ahem) being out of the question.

But it doesn’t stop a wee cuddle surely? A hand hold. A wee touch of reassurance? It depends where it is of course but I’ve not seen a cold sore on a hand. What do I know?

A convenient cold sore. How sad.

I get that pmdd would be hard to live with (I could be horrifically short of tolerance rather than crippling upset - think Aunt Irma). I can only think that something happened we were not privy to.

Such a shame.

I think physical abuse is easier to recover from. Bones heal in months mostly.

The emotional/mental stuff? Takes years.

Seriously what is the Sionainn head wobbling about?? Never seen this before. Is it a nervous thing?

Genuinely don't think it's that. I think she's quite impenetrable and draining with her false jollity, and now it's moved on to ooooh matron stuff about sex. The vulnerability is the only 'real her' he thinks he's seeing whereas the head girl sales stuff Bridget Jones routine is probably quite a big part too. They just really don't gel and should have had the leaving convo this week as they're just taking turns to look bad and it's probably affecting her self esteem, all this moroseness

MmePick · 22/10/2024 23:07

DS remarked that Sionnain reminded him of a lizard cos of the head thing (not an insult)

Caspar doesn’t fancy Emma cos she’s like his sister! I feel dead sorry for him. I’m a tall sturdy woman and appreciate not all chaps like that. She needs to gather her self respect and leave.

Love the naming of Gaston btw, perfect

LessonsinChemistryandLove · 22/10/2024 23:12

The K & K drama makes me think this series has a lot more editing out than usual. Seems there is a lot happening behind the scenes in all of the couples that we don’t see, just more Alex having a moan at someone else

Italiangreyhound · 22/10/2024 23:21

Who has got the cold sore and what's the deal with that?

I wonder if she has a neurological condition that causes it. She has a hoarse voice as well, so maybe it's an uncontrollable movement.

dapsnotplimsolls · 22/10/2024 23:25

I agree it's something she probably can't control.

MyrtleStrumpet · 22/10/2024 23:26

Kieran has the cold sore and used it as a reason not to be close to Kristina because she has PMDD that he finds difficult. PMDD is a menstrual disorder that can last a couple weeks every month. It causes severe mood swings, depression, irritability, agitation, uneasiness, change in appetite, severe fatigue, anxiety, and anger.
I wonder if she gets really weepy and angry and swings from happy to pissed off. That would be a lot to handle.

Kieran. No intimacy. Possibly very convenient.
