Yup. Since when do you still have to be in love with an ex to react to them? And I'm sure she's not fully over the relationship, but that has nothing to do with wanting her back.

Exactly...I'm as puzzled by this as the people who still believe Drew should be with Jade.

I vacillate on that. Hurting Tahlia was not behaviour I applaud, but I keep wondering how much things are skewed in a hothouse environment like the BB house. I'm too old to think people can't make mistakes, and I think I'm too cynical to ever want to watch 'sinners' showing remorse/regret and generally humbling themselves because the public has been baying for blood. It's not a popular opinion here, but I think Tully has handled herself really well since leaving the house. I admire her for not hiding....a lot. As you know, I voted for her to go, but it doesn't mean I think she should be defined by one mistake (not that I've seen you doing that, have I)?

I think you then should realize that you and the few other Tully supporters are the minority, the majority of us can see the situation for what it is. I am not saying your opinion is not valid, i am just pointing out that perhaps the majority of people see something you don't and possibly its not us the majority who are thinking the wrong way. You say you don't applaud that behaviour yet it doesn't really seem to bother you that much, unfortunately i can feel the pain and shame that Tahlia went through so i'm not so quick to forgive.

I don't condone attacks on Tully at all but i also know what the internet is like in 2013 and i can guarantee that Tully knows the consequences of cheating on her girl in this age of technology

True, that could be it. Brave post to say the least. Although, at first I thought it might be an accidental post or that she wanted to bring out the haters for publicity. I had a look through the comments and it seems finally she is able to delete the vast majority of bad comments. The comment numbers have dropped so it would be far easier to manage. It did trouble me seeing the comments and knowing a lot of pre- teens would probably be fans and the stuff they are reading could be quite confronting.
One case in point was actually a pic Drew posted of Tully on the bed at the hotel in her dressing gown. The front of the gown falls open a little and then of course we see all the sex comments being posted.
I think that they do have a duty of care to their younger fans, but obviously the buck doesn't stop with them and they can only control so much, I'm just glad that Tully is at least giving deleting some comments a shot.

I disagree with them having a duty of care to younger fans they are adults in an adult relationship that includes sex the pics were decent enough, admittedly it made it clear that they now had an intimate relationship but still well within the rules of instagram. It's really up to parents to police their kids Internet use that buck shouldn't be passed onto others.
Neither Tully or Drew have ever promoted themselves as kid friendly, in fact they could be quite X rated with their moments are were open in the house about sex.
They treat their young fans kindly when they approach but they haven't ever encouraged them.

Plus many of the posters making vulger comments were the same people making them on previous photos and tweets asking about if the had sex yet. Those photos quitened it down a little by saying we sure did.

And tripe to this too. Tully may be idiosyncratic, savvy, lots of things, but I very very much doubt that she was prepared for remarks like 'I want to smear faeces and placenta on your walls'. The fact that you are not appalled by this sort of stuff because Tully is a scarlet woman is as appalling to me, as my 'forgiving' Tully her public indiscretion.
And don't even start me on 'the majority of people'.
(And yes, I will probably regret posting this.)
 
What started as a thread of informative updates re these 2 couples, (whether they were our favs or not), seems to be taken over by the boring trolls, haters and bullies whom I hoped had gotten OVER IT.

ffs can't we just be happy we had a great BB 2013 and enjoy the pics, tweets etc they are sharing.

Don't regret anything, i am not here to attack, more so to debate. Anyone on this boards opinions are valid.

And i would say that due to Tully having a career in social media, that she knew exactly what she was getting herself into. Yes of course those remarks are horrible and i wouldnt dare say that to someone. But i also know that those remarks are spewed all over the internet, from facebook to youtube to twitter, heck Charlotte Dawson got hospitalized for buying into the 'trolls', fortunately for Tully she knows better. People feel anonymous on the internet and say nasty things but it is absolutely everywhere and Tully would know this. I am just a casual internet browser and i know how people act on here.

I am appalled by what randoms say on the internet, but in no way will that minimize the way i feel about the Tully/Drew situation and i feel thats the same way alot of others look at it.

PS: It seems that Tully was actually hoping that BB wasn't showing certain footage of her and Drew and Tully thought/hoped she would get away from it. On the last episode you could see the final 3's jaws dropping when it showed the extent of Drullys hooking up IE. the towel over heads in bathroom.

We should all expect people not to make threats to our physical safety. That is what she should expect.

Actually I think expecting that in this day and age of social media is being naive. If you go on a reality TV show, you should expect to have haters, regardless of whether you are the nicest person on the earth (people will hate you just for that reason alone if it's the only thing they can pick on).

You should also expect that if you behave in a way that is not acceptable to the majority of society, then you will get even more haters.

You should also expect that you will be trolled, flamed, ridiculed, bullied and harassed,and yes, even threatened. It's stunning to realise that some of these bullies are mature (in terms of age) adults, that run families and hold down jobs, and are otherwise decent people in their real lives.

That's the way of the internet unfortunately. It has been that way since the internet became open to the public. I well recall the only time I ever cried over a comment left for me in a forum. It was 18 years ago and it was so harsh and I was shocked and upset. As I read on through the various replies I realised that some people do that just for fun. (Ha, no it didn't scar me so much that I vividly remember the date, but I do know that I was on Maternity Leave with my second child at the time).

Expecting to be treated decently is setting yourself up for a whole lot of emotional pain.

I don't agree with it but it's what you sign up for any time you willingly put yourself up in front of the public.

It's quite interesting to wonder what would be happening right now if they never showed the Drully footage - how would Tully act with Drew during appearances together? Would she still be with Tahlia, but still want Drew? Would she have realised she wanted Drew once out of the house, and broke up with Tahlia to be with Drew?

Apologies. That was my fault.

She said she wanted to be with Tahlia when she was evicted. Until she found out Tahlia had dumped her. Then did that interview with Sonia saying she wanted to be with Drew. You can interpret that several ways.

I don't remember Tahlia being mentioned at all during her eviction neither by Tully or Sonia it was odd it certainly didn't make it clear if Tully knew Tahlia wasn't there or had been dumped before she went on stage. Drew was equally non committal on the subject of Tully during his eviction interview and interviews soon after.
IMO that perfectly normal not to want to lay your cards down until they both had time to talk and see what each other wanted.
