From Tullys friend (@tullysmythbb)

Hi all,

I haven't posted on this forum or spent a large amount of time on here due to hateful messages about my friend Tully. However, I have popped my head in every now and then and feel something needs to be said.

I run (ran?) @tullysmythbb - the twitter for Tully that was discussed due to my tweets last night.

The reason I started this And the Facebook page was a) Tully asked me to and b) I wanted to be able to clear her name if anything was misconstrued or people or bb was making false accusations. This is what I did the first few weeks of Drully, until it become horribly obvious that I couldn't keep pretending that it was editing at fault when everyone can see the two of them attempting to hide from cameras to make out.

On top of dealing with my friend publicly embarrassing herself, I deal with hundreds of hate messages a day - some have become so personal as well.

As well as this, I am living my own life which means being involved in the lesbian scene and making sure Tahlia is okay. I am in constant contact with her, have stayed at her house and dealt with her being so heartbroken and torn up because of all this.

Of course Big Brother tells her things before they air. People need to remember that they both auditioned and both got through the first initial rounds. They know Tahlia and have a responsibility to her.

Which leads me back to last night.

Channel 9 has marketing this series as a children's show. Which is why I believe that what I know won't be shown.

Regardless of a certain act being classified as cheating or not, this hasn't seated well with me for a long time. And I know first hand that Tully does tell everyone she loves them, does call people baby, does like to cuddle in bed. In her initial online videos she asked the first date question "would you spoon me if I'm cold?"
And these aren't the issues that Tahlia is upset over.

The only reason I want those accounts now is to try and be a buffer for the online hate.

Please try and remember that there is more than one person at fault here.
The producers, the psychiatrists on the show and drew are all also equally to blame.

I love Tully. And will try my best to be there for her but as someone who has been cheated on and it was Tully who took me in, fed me and looked after me, this is all a bit much.

I owe her a lot and she is someone I consider to be an older sister and mentor which is why this is all so confusing. Something I would never do.

Please keep trying to not judge. As so many people have said on this forum, nobody is perfect.

Hopefully she is out soon and this is all over.

For everyone who has defended and supported her this whole time, thank you so much.
 
Read a book NOT "Just Friends" by Shirley Glass if you really want to understand this. Others addressed the rest of your post so I won't bother repeating them to you.

And you should read "Predicate Logic: The Semantic Foundations of Logic" if you want to understand both what you have been saying and what I am saying.

Actually the others have not addressed any points I have made.
 
[MENTION=34897]teamtully[/MENTION] that was a very well-written post. I applaud you for supporting your friend without defending certain behaviours, and I know that she's lucky to have you there when she gets out. I'm sorry that you have to bear the brunt of cruel and hateful personal comments for which you are completely not responsible. All the best to you.

Cosigned. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. I know what it's like to have a dear friend disappoint you with this kind of behaviour (albeit not in such a public manner, obviously), and I also know that when you know someone very well and have a history together, you don't just stop loving them because of it. Please be assured that there are plenty of us out here who know that your friend is a human being who's made some bad mistakes, who needs support and not hate to help her grow from them. Thanks for your lovely post.

Not at all. The logic is quite clear. Which part of it do you not understand?
Just give it up already. You are alone with this here and you know we are right and you are wrong. + Read the book then we can talk again.

Why whould I want to read a book about infedelity. I don't know whether Tully has been unfaithfull or not. And, from you posts, neither do you. But I can say she is certainly not lying - for the reasons that I have already given. The logic that you use to support the claim that she is being dishonest is internally inconsistent.

I may be alone or not. I do not know. But I am not so insecure to feel the need to be a member of a group.

Dude. Stop clogging up the thread with your insane 'logic'. Big stuff has gone down (see post #2069) that you could be using to back up your conspiracy theory regarding Tahlia and Tully cooking up this plotline with Drew and Tully.

Yes, I saw that. But suppose that I am wrong and this is not a Tully game plan. On one hand that post is weak evidence in support of my argument but if the post is kosher then using it would be very wrong.

BTW, as my name indicates, I am not a dude.
 
I feel super bad for Tahlia. It must suck not only having to watch your girlfriend/ex-girlfriend be unfaithful on TV, but also not knowing when she is coming home. So before every eviction she would have to be mentally preparing herself to see Tully/get ready to have a big talk , and then when she isnt evicted, it's a big anticlimax / maybe partial relief.

If I was in Tahlia's shoes, I would want Tully out ASAP so this saga isn't dragged out any more and I can get the inevitable talk/ unpleasant breakup over with and start to move on.

Well said ...I'm glad someone has come out and said something . At the end of the day this isn't the tully show this is a show based on many other contestants so hopefully people will get over the fact that one person has made a mistake and Stop the obessessing and abusing .At the end of the day we don't know tully and if we did its not like we would go and attack someone in the real world like that of they cheat.

I'm different in that I would not have the talk at all and would refrain from any contact with both Tully and Drew.

I am guessing that Tully's mate didn't hear from 9 that Tully is coming home this Monday, because, surely, she could put in another few days if they knew she was coming out this week. I can only think that the suars are going home, because it is only indifference that is getting people sent home. Hate doesn't send you home yet. Not with vote to save.

So, I guess the arbitrary point was of no return, and Tully just crossed it - and that 9 don't think Tully will be going home this week.
 
I think Tully's moved on now already, which is why she's not so insecure anymore. She has a new partner and clearly could not maintain a relationship with her ex if she's not right there due to her complex mental health (Borderline traits or possibly personality disordered). It's not the same as people going on holiday and finding someone else because they were unhappy. Tully cannot cope without having a partner right there with her all the time. She has OTT grief when people leave. It looks fake because it's so dramatic but I think with her it's clinical.

The best thing would be for Tully to pack up and move to Melbourne to be with him. If she's alone, she's at risk.

C9 is a hideous company to work for. They will not be doing the right thing by anyone.

Maybe you are right. Tully isn't very reasonable in arguments/emotional situations so having a talk may not even be worth the trouble. However I was under the impression that they move in the same circle of friends, so it would be hard to completely cut her out.
 
I wonder if it would be better for both Tully and Tahlia to face the fire, and to have the scene on national TV. To see Tully's heart break on TV would be ... emotional, for viewers. But to stop the obsession, if Tahlia were there, and she politely, firmly, told Tully No, it might cap the story, and let them get back to their lives.

Not sure if this is a wish to see a spectacle, or if it could really shock everyone, Tully and Tahlia and public, into closure, and let them get on with their lives.
