FWIW (and trying to avoid derailing too much) I think saying Faye is acting like a head is very different to advocating violence against her. In the same way as "God her lipliner looks awful" is actually ok (opinion) rather than "I hope she dies" (Which i haven't seen and hope I never do). I think we just about toe the line in here, talking about someone negatively is very different to threatening or abusive messaging though?
 
Didn't Chloe kinda egg Faye on with "you have the best comebacks" whilst laughing

Yet noone wants to talk about that
Good point. I forgot about that.

If anything Chloe was the only one really encouraging her but afterwards she was like "she just doesn't stop"

Imagine how much of a nightmare she must be making it in there for the rest of them - they're all just rolling their eyes and backing off.

I thought the lads came across quite well last night in their reactions last night.
 
There were a couple violent/aggressive comments about Faye, (bleep punt for example, tho the phrase cracks me up) so technically, yeah its abuse too. Tho we know its gossiping away on here and not a real threat, someone reading that would have a different take.

This is just reality tv and social media tho innit. A whole mess of peoples reactions.

I actually watched that as Chloe saying "Faye..." like Faye what are you doing, then when Faye barked at her, Chloe backed off and pretended she was on board, but I might have been misunderstanding that.
 
Okay I don’t normally comment on Love Island threads but I can’t help myself here!

I’ve been watching since episode 1 and have just caught up on last nights episode.

I’m a clinical psychologist.

Whatever happened to be kind? I appreciate I haven’t gone through all 29 pages of this thread, but all I can see so far is abuse to Faye. Before anyone assumes anything, I am NOT condoning Faye’s behaviour which, by the way, was technically domestic abuse.

Faye is emotionally unstable. In fact she shows features of Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder or BPD. She has very clearly been through some trauma in her life from men; be that an abusive ex partner or unhelpful attachment styles from her childhood and parenting, or both.

The Love Island producers exploited her last night. In fact they tried to exploit most islanders with the “movie” challenge, but the difference is that most of them had the emotional regulation capacity to be able to cope with the situation.

People keep saying “why does Teddy keep being done over by producers?”. I’ll tell you why- it’s because they know Faye is emotionally vulnerable and so they have been deliberately portraying Teddy in a bad light to upset Faye for entertainment value. What the producers probably don’t understand the full extent of, is that this is exploitation, and they are triggering Faye’s mental health issues and previous trauma in an uncontrolled environment. It’s ethically appalling.

It doesn’t matter that it’s Faye. It doesn’t matter that she’s a woman. If it was a man, or if it was Teddy behaving in this way, I would be shouting the exact same thing at my television: “get that person out of that situation, take them out of Love Island, and give them therapy and support”.

Anybody who behaves in that domestically abusive way, male or female, needs long term therapy and should not be on Love Island. So just remember that before you abuse her on this thread- nobody is born to behave in that manner. The producers should hang their heads in shame for a) orchestrating the situation and b) not diffusing it immediately.
You're preaching be kind to others however looking at some of your own posts on tattle it seems you would need to take your own advice instead trying to shame other tattlers.

I reckon Chloe backed out of what she was gonna say cos she didnt wanna be in fayes firing line. Been there, done that. Imagine if Clarisse was still there though, she would have switched at Faye and put her in her place without even reaching fayes level

Yep, or perhaps she was trying to lighten the mood. It's clear Chloe doesn't handle confrontation well. She tit herself when Faye screamed at her early on, Faye - "SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP", Chloe - "okay" *sits down*.
