No, she's just stating her completely valid opinion - I get that it blows your little mind but it's quite possible to have differing opinions and it be a-ok.

That said I'd have reacted the same way as Drew, and probably similar to Tahlia....as someone almost 30 I can see what Tahlia is doing is regrettable....however at 22? No.

I agree I'm a similar age as you. At 22 I wouldn't have had the emotional maturity or relationship experience to deal with such a public situation. I'm so glad that there was very little social media when I was in my teens and early twenties.

Now the woman tweeting Drew calling Tully a whore is way old enough to know better!

Its ridiculous to blame Tully for Drews behaviour he's a grown man who makes his own choices he's responsible for his own actions.

there are so many people on here who say they liked drew pre-tully
it has been said drew is a social chameleon - something i agree with
so yes i do think he's easily influenced by the people he is with


this doesn't mean - however - that i don't think he's 100% accountable for his actions
i think he's totally in control of what he does but i think he's influenced too

In drews defence- how many times have any of you felt the need to vent or respond to others? I know I do it a lot. I have to vent, I feel the need to respond back. It's difficult not wanting to, but I understand that it is something he has to learn to do. I'm not going to judge him on something we all do daily! The more time goes by, I'm sure he will learn to deal with it and laugh at these responses, but right now he is only getting used to this type of thing. I'd hate to feel like every action I take is going to be analysed to the death and made to think there is some kind of tac there. How fucking annoying!

I understand its a natural reaction, but it is an unattractive one. I'm really interested in how these housemates are going to use their 15minutes, I want to see if any of them can turn it into something that has longevity. If Drew isn't interested in continuing to be a public personality, then I don't think it matters what he says. I'm no hard core fan, (and I suspect many of his fans aren't either) so he needs to continue to impress if he wants a career in the public eye. Whatever he says or does may affect future promotional deals etc so he probably should get a publicist ASAP. Or maybe he wants to go back to uni, IDK, if so, let loose man! But seriously non private profiles are public for a reason, shut that shit down if you have no interest in impressing the public.

I just view things differently I think because I always find a way to go back to the human reaction and responses. How human emotions can just take over I suppose. I lack the insight to think further than that I've realised and your post does bring that into play. So I do feel like I've learnt something reading that.

I just look at the whole situation and think how I would respond as tahlia and drew have and try to undertstand their psych at that moment rather than the long term affects it could hold.
 
Semi-irrelevant, but apparently the last Twitterer Drew was getting into it with is 34 and has a daughter. So that's awesome.

I suspected Tahlia would react this way once Drew came out the house,its normal for her to be angry with Tully and Drews relationship now properly being on. It was bound to drag up a lot of intense feeling for her. But she isn't helping herself by responding and publically tweeting about it, those aren't the actions of someone who wants it to die down.
What isn't normal is the haters reactions to take it so personally like they are involved especially after all this time.

What's happened now will Tully and drew did tahlia say something??

It is not like you have the option to disagree when someone you like says they don't want to get serious.

Not to mention 19.8% of all long term relationships involved a similar conversation.

It is just not reasonable to determine what Jade really wanted simply because she said "Yeah Okay" to something that would make her seem crazy to disagree with...

This is not logical. Of course she had the option to disagree. No one can force you into having some fun. If Ed said jump off a cliff she doesn't have to agree. If she offered and agreed to have some fun, it's not reasonable to expect him to read her mind and conclude she was being dishonest.

She set the rules for him to agree with anyway. She said she wants to just have some fun and saw no harm in it. Just because she is a girl and had hidden desires does not make her a victim. The guy does not deserve to be vilified for not reading her mind and doing exactly what she did - agreeing to some fun.

As she became more obsessive she still had the option to tell him and give an ultimatum. Or to change her mind (disagree) with 'fun' and end it. Instead she admitted that she was hiding her feelings from him so that he would not end it completely.

Ed did it right, he made sure that he never set her up with false expectations. She knew that he didn't want anything serious so, she played along with it and pretended that was what she wanted. She knew she was living on secret hope that he might eventually want more. She is responsible for her own choice of agreeing (and suggesting) that it would only be some fun.

Tahlia speaking out

That's a really unflattering pic of Tahlia, and a gorgeous one of Tully+Drew. It really makes Tahlia look really jealous and nasty - personality wise. I don't think this 'fame' will follow Tahlia well and perhaps she should have just kept it to her close family/friends as she will always be remembered as 'the jilted lesbian lover who tried to sold her sooking to a trashy mag'.

Tully Smyth ‏@tee_smyth 55s
To clarify... [MENTION=27570]DREW[/MENTION]BB13 have no 'shock news' re: marriage. I do however appreciate the irony in my ex calling us sellouts, via a paid story.

That just happened.

Between this and Drew arguing with fans on Twitter it almost makes me forget that BB is over.

I totally see where you are coming from. I find the human side of the whole thing fascinating, but here's the thing - celebrities are human of course but none of them last in the star game if they can't play it properly. I know that I personally wouldn't survive as I'm too fragile. It's a tough business and I've been a keen observer for a long time. There's a whole lot of charm required and a massive amount of talent. Where talent lacks, irresistible charm is needed and where charm lacks A WHOLE LOT of talent is needed. This is where I could see straight trough Ed, I could see his conditioning for fame but due to the reality side of BB he came across as non genuine, he didn't know how to present himself in a natural way and his AFL star wasn't big enough to carry him. See, they have to play it cool, like they don't care, but every action is chosen to make it look that way. It's such a fine line, and this is why publicists and a team of other media professionals are absolutely invaluable. It's show business out of the BB house, it's not about reality anymore.
 
Why are you all not at the new stand waiting on woman's day and then scanning it so we can read it.

Come On!

I wish Tahlia's friends would tell her to stop. She is only going to end up causing herself more grief and she is not going to get an ounce of revenge or payback

Good point! Well like you previously stated in your posts, I hope drew isn't looking for fame out of this, because he will start losing his charm reacting to these things.
 
Nickhy Bennetts ‏@NickhyB 3m [MENTION=27738]tee[/MENTION]_smyth [MENTION=27570]DREW[/MENTION]BB13 U guy's don't know how many people know that you had sex in the house,there's footage,nine staff know,told Thalia,Laura

This person seems to have made this account solely to tweet housemates about their relationships so I don't think it's a very credible source but it is at least interesting that they mentioned Laura so it's not just a regular hater at the very least they have done some research.
