Housemate #5 TULLY!

Not open for further replies.
Was just watching a clip of Drew and Tully in bed together (the one where she was tapping his teeth), you can clearly see Tahlia's photo on her bed side table, it made me sick and sad at the same time. I just feel really sorry for Tahlia.
 
Why are you questioning me in a forum dedicated to discuss BB and when some of the top threads here are:

Tahan = f'ing hypocrite
Drew is a scumbag
Love to see Mikkayla evicted...
Tahan - Ding, ding, ding and Crocodile tears
Jade Appreciation thread
Tim's thing for Jade
Katie & Lucy appreciation thread- When 2 become 1
Save the Sisters & Get Tully OUT
HOUSEMATE ED (because i'm shallow)
Ed is a deadset prick.


Why do these things matter?

Just pointing the obvious how strange your question was.

I have no problem with you discussing what happens on BB because obviously that's the whole point of this forum, but you seem to be obsessed by the fact that Tully's cheating (that's all I ever see you talk about) and you keep saying things like BB should intervene because it's wrong/harmful. I was asking you why it's so important to you that Tully is cheating and I was also arguing that it's not BB's place to stop Drully from what they're doing because imo that's their choice and they should be allowed to dig themselves a hole if they want to.
 
I like everything that was said just with the exception of apportioning blame to the show psychologists or producers. I'm not sure how the psychologists could ever be possibly to blame for Tully's poor decisions. Likewise, based on this letter alone, it sounds like the producers have been beyond kind in informing Tahlia beforehand in order to avoid the embarrassment of being taken off guard. Again, its not their fault if Tully makes poor decisions and it even sounds like they are being restrained in what they are showing. I do feel for her friends and family and the frustration and heartbreak they must be going through while watching helplessly from the outside world. But it doesn't help to try and deflect the blame to anyone other than where it lies with Tully and Drew.

I refuse to see how Big Brother is at all to blame for this. Did they insist on Tully and Drew sharing a bed? Nope.

Did they say, "Hey here's a good plot twist! Hide under the doona, towel, dog bed, rose bush in the back yard etc and make out!!" Nope.

They have no one to blame but themselves. To try and put any onus of blame on the BB show is ludicrous.
Completely agreed with both of these excellent posts.
 
Trying to rub everyone the wrong way today, eh [MENTION=36011]chads[/MENTION]? I was agreeing that since Tully demonstrates very little to no regard for her (ex) girlfriend, why should we expect any better from Drew? Her behaviour is telling him there is no need to consider anyone else but the,selves.
It was attempt at sarcasm which I should have known doesn't transfer on screen.
 
Because BBfan is in love with Tully and doesn't think anything she does is bad.

actually if you read BBfan's post you'll see she doesn't think way at all

I've never cheated or been cheated on so I can't speak from experience but I don't approve of what Tully is doing and I'm sad that she's ruined her relationship with Tahlia. But in saying that, it doesn't affect me or chads directly and we can't (and shouldn't) do anything about it so imo there's no point in going over it again and again. Tully and Tahlia will both move on with their lives after this.

 
Why, are you disappointed? :D

Not at ALL, I love a bit of SCANDINAVIAN for DESSERT.

Because it's ruining my viewing experience? Obviously BB is not obliged to change anything but I can complain just like the 100000000 other people on this forum.

And I'd like to point out I don't hate Tully but I don't like cheating. There's a big difference.
 
just found this comment from tully's friend on twitter, apologies for reposting the letter from her but she quoted it in her post:

I am Tullys friend who ran that site and i have certainly not abandoned her. It is Katie who attends the eviction shows, she has no idea how to use twitter or a page on Facebook so it is me ( a different friend) who does this for Tully. Please don’t pass judgment over me before you know the whole story. I 100% am going to be there for Tully but that does not need to be done publicly. She needs to come out of the house now so how can I continue to tweet and tell almost 3000 people to save her week after week. Please read my post on the big brother forums from today –

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.

Oh wowwww!
 
Yes Murf that is the one. It could of happened before she declared she was in an outside relationship at the beginning of BB. Who knows.

Yes I'm very aware by now that you don't like cheating. :rolleyes:
I just don't see how it ruins your viewing experience. I would understand if it was you that Tully was cheating on but do you really have that much empathy for Tahlia, someone you've seen for 2 seconds on TV and a few of her tweets, that you can't enjoy watching Big Brother anymore because she's being cheated on?
 
Maybe despise was a too strong word, I'm not English. "Don't like", better?

This is precisely one good point many of the housemates were also making. It's affecting everyone in the house. Maybe they should treat them as one person since they are together anyway all the time. We have no idea what either of them are like for real because they are rarely seen apart from each other. This affects voting.

yes but in the past week they have visibly been making more of an effort to separate themselves on occasion and not be quite so joined at the hip

yes they still gravitate towards one another but I don't see the screechers/Jade/Mikkayla being criticised for doing the same ...

and Tully is being nominated mostly for the emotional outbursts which are draining and for being stuck together like glue with Drew thus not allowing THEM to form friendships with him or her ... I think only Matt has mentioned the cheating in nomination reasoning ... everyone has stayed clear of it as a reason I think ... they may have brought it up in DR - Tim, Tahan and Ed ... but that;s about it)

Ooh, I think I might be blushing. Technically Finland does not belong to Scandinavia but instead to Nordic countries but it doesn't matter. :D

What's for the dinner?
 
Tully hasn't been having crying outbursts for a week and a half now, she is interacting with most of the people, she didn't go on the show to hurt Tahlia she just ended up falling in love with someone, I'm sure if she had a way to call or contact Tahlia she would have told her about it and went their separate ways in a more friendly manner, Tully is a far more interesting house guest than the Sugars are ...... Vote to save Tully
