I am honestly so confused. Far from comeuppance, the producers rewarded Faye with yet another redemption arc by arranging for her to be Liberty’s confidente and shoulder to cry on. This should have been Kaz - they were genuine friends from the getgo. Really grinds my gears that they wouldn’t give Kaz the screentime and conveniently sent her on a date. Especially considering that Faye clearly told Lib she wouldn’t be her friend after the compatibility vote. Portraying Faye as the straight talking, loyal friend instead.
This! And if you look at Twitter loads have fallen for it. It’s blatant manipulation from the producers and so frustrating that she and they get away with it.

Is this a joke or do they actually go to the soft play center 😂😂😂😂
 
Guys I’ve been behind for a few days, I’m catching up now and I have to say how have I never noticed before how funny Liam and Millie are?

The baby challenge - Liam acting like an old valleys housewife “how’s your mother I’ll pop in soon with a card” 😭

Millie playing the piano like an old Nokia ringtone and Liam watching with heart eyes as though he’s watching Elton John.

And last but certainly not least
“Do you think this is an aphrodisiac”
“No, it’s an asparagus”
“Haven’t you heard of an aphrodisiac?”
“Haven’t you heard of an asparagus”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
I was prepared to feel a little bit bad for Jake last night but why was he such a dick?
First the ‘you’re giving me the ick’ comment, which tbf on its own I can see how he sees that as a joke or how it would be taken as banter if it was just a stand alone thing, but then in the kitchen, they were singing how do you like your eggs in the morning and she said with a kiss and then he said I like my with a kiss too and then said ‘that was a hint you idiot’ .. well he could of gone and kissed her?, also sometimes it’s not what he says but how he says he, he has an aggressive tone. Then he said ‘I should teach you how to sing’ .. wtf? Another put down basically saying she’s tit at singing lol. Then when they were taking photos, firstly he said ‘why is it always me taking them?’ Then he said oh I look awful in these and she said no you don’t they’re nice, and then he goes ‘it’s all about you isn’t it, you you you’ .. erm Jake.. you didn’t once say lib looked nice, you were just looking at yourself? You could tell Liberty was thinking wtf. Then when she had the conversation with her, he didn’t fight for her even a little bit! It was only a couple days ago he said he loved her!!!

if Liberty hadn’t got upset and they hadn’t broken up, the producers wouldn’t of bothered showing us all those little things, so it makes you wonder how much it happens, how often he talks to her like that (and explains why the islanders don’t think he really likes her).

it’s also made me think.. maybe it’s wasn’t Jake and Liberty trying to make themselves out to be this day 1 power couple who are gonna sail to the end, maybe it was the producers trying to make them into that, then when they realised the public aren’t that fond of Jake, they decided to just show a bit more of reality. I think this especially because last night a lot of that seemed to come out of no where from a viewers perspective
Yes, this! In just a couple of convos we have been allowed to see, almost every sentence out of his mouth was barbed with badly hidden contempt and delivered in a cold, irritated tone. It sounds dramatic but if you watch it from a behaviour and language/speech/tone aspect, very rarely are the 'jokes' a very insecure narcissistic man like him delivers, truly jokes. He's so irritated he can't control himself.

When I look at his facial expressions when hes in that zone he reminds me exactly to a T of the way an ex narcissist bf looked and behaved towards me and others I have known. They look like irritated little boys who are filled with rage.

What was most telling with his behaviour was when she dared to suggest he might have been feeling a bit insecure (about the selfie), because behind all that bravado they are like little scared, insecure boys and at that point you can see he was so angry and incensed that she dared to point out he might feel insecure, like WHAT, ME WITH HOW AMAZING I AM?! his biggest worry and lifelong goal is maintaining his fragile ego and pride and feeling in control like a big alpha. They are all if not the same, very similar.

All the time he is gaslighting her, changing the understanding of the situation; like why wouldn't she, from what he was saying, ask if he was feeling unattractive, he was saying he was! But then when she suggests it he calls her an idiot like she's said something completely mental and impossible.

His face and reaction also when he realised he was getting dumped looked and sounded like a mixture of actual relief (he didn't fight for her, say anything at all nice or comforting to her) and calculation. His main concern in that moment was again, protecting his ego. If you look back, when he realises she's really serious about ending it, he cut her off and started to try to control the conversation, you could see his cogs going trying to edge the conversation towards him leading the ending of it any way whatsoever to salvage his story. He's so thick that he forgot that we are all watching, it wasn't truly mutual, she initiated and delivered. It was again, something he was forced into saying and going along with to keep up appearances.

I know so many of us sadly recognise each and every facial expression, way of speaking, patterns of gaslighting, language use, that chipping away of making you feel small so they can feel big, because we've lived through it. But it isn't half fascinating to know that they are all almost carbon copies of each other in the way they operate. Scary, but fascinating!

I'd love them to be real. really like Millie but I can't help having a niggle about just how quickly his head turned and he didn't look back.😕 From shouting at Toby and his immaturity, I actually love him and Chloe together. Kaz I love so would be gutted if some of you are right and it's true Tyler not genuine. 😒 Teddy is a gent, Faye in a mink.
