For the first time ever I missed quite a few episodes of this year's Masterchef (I'm bad with reality shows!) so I Can understand why it was the lowest rating. I think he'll be a good connection and maybe friend for Jade to have if she does decide to move to Sydney, so who knows!
This!! That is all.
Yeah this was the first time I missed quite a bit of Masterchef too. I just couldn't get into it at all. I was reading earlier that they thought by having "solid but not brilliant" home cooks that people would relate to it more but the contestants were such duds and there were so many gimmicks that the whole thing tanked. Looks like they've realised that now though so they've killed all the spinoffs and are going to go back to how it used to be next year. And I agree that I think he would make a good friend/connection for her - or even more haha - if she moves to Sydney (which I hope she does). I just really can't see her being happy in Melbourne, especially if the only people she really would know are Ed and his friends. Oh and Nathan, I suppose.
[MENTION=37743]jadefan[/MENTION] that Greg Miller guy knows no more about Jade and Ed than anyone else on here does. He just likes to pretend he does. I think his comment about Jade and Ed having amazing chemistry says how little in fact he knows at all.
Lol, pretty much the best comment I've read all day. I love Jade and everything but from what we saw on the show at least she and Ed had the spark of a wet paper bag. Hell, she had more chemistry with Ben than she did Ed...and unlike Ed at least Ben could acknowledge that she's sexy as all hell.

There is only one word to describe Ed's sleezy behaviour on instagram and tweeter and that is DISRESPECT.I guess his emotional immaturity doesn't take into account of Jade's feelings.Is he genuine boyfriend material?
I'm glad Jade is meeting new people and developing new friendships.
I wonder if, at this stage of both their lives, it is a bit odd that neither Nick nor Ed have girlfriends... Never had a GF at Christmas time?? Really? I also wonder if they rely on each other's judgement when it comes to choice of GF. Hence, no one is good enough for my bro. Maybe I'm way off the mark here and some guys just want to be free when their ideal gal comes along.

Yeah that's true ,right on the money!
It seems like they're keeping their options open until that happens.
I mean look at their lifestyle drinking and socialising in clubs,you wonder whether there's room for a girlfriend at all atm.
I have to say even if the ideal gal comes along,they might not see or realise it because they're not ready or deserving.

It's interesting, and I like Ed, but I always got the sense that being in a committed relationship right now would mess up his chance to go meet and whatever else with other girls. Because they are both from the sports world, they know what happens when you have some bit of popularity. Women are everywhere. I don't know their dating history, but if ever there was a time they would not be committed to anyone, it would be now.
As for them being brothers, I absolutely think it would throw a wrench in the fun if one of them was coupled up.
I'm torn, because if he is not and has never been committed to Jade, how much does he owe her? Yes, he SHOULD be respectful of her feelings, but to what extent? I may not like his behavior, but if he's not in a relationship and is young and free...
Even if it was over with Ed, I don't think she would move on that quickly, especially with the career goal in mind. I wouldn't rule out it happening in the future, unless by some Christmas miracle (although Ed might prefer a miracle from Satan!) pulls his socks up and starts acting an individual, and starts treating Jade the way she deserves
So you don't think Jade would move on that quickly from you. You know, as soon as Jade shows any affection towards Ed, he runs for the hills and he puts distance between them, and goes silent. As soon as he see's Jade is out and about having fun with other people, and attractive looking men, he throws her a few crumbs in her direction to give her a bit of hope there is a chance for them to have a future together. He just keeps stringing her along and not giving one thought of how much pain this is causing Jade, because all Ed can think about is himself. Ed, why the hell do you keep giving Jade false hope? You don't want her, but you don't want anyone else to have her.
I've been sitting quietly for weeks and saying nothing, but I'm so glad to see others finally speaking up and saying something. It's great isn't it Ed, having someone stroke your ego, and make you feel great about yourself. I wish you would tell Jade straight over the phone, "I can't see us having a future" and just let her go, and find someone who will love her and make her feel special. Most young women in their twenties have been in this situation. I have and it bloody hurts like hell. Ed, please stop giving Jade false hope. And Jade, I want you to continue getting out there in all your gorgeous outfits and that lovely smile of yours and move on from Ed. I hate seeing people getting hurt.

Not sure how to put two quotes in one response... I agree [MENTION=36315]aurora[/MENTION] about not having room for a girlfriend... Too suffocating for some blokes and at the risk of sounding like a keyboard psychologist, children from broken families can harbour a real fear of committment in relationships... Simply because they don't want to go down the same road as their parents.
And I think you're right [MENTION=37936]tanique[/MENTION] regarding Ed being free to ogle... I guess it depends on whether or not Jade is content to align herself with a guy who is keen on ogling... Maybe he's ogling on purpose.

The only problem I have is, as soon as Jade is showing Ed some love and affection, he distances himself from her and is far more aloof. Jade would feel confused and hurt by getting mixed signals, so she tries to move on with her life, and as soon as she is out and about with this Chef called Dan, he is suddenly showing alot more interest in Jade. It's called "Stringing someone along." And because Jade has such strong feelings for Ed, it's impossible for her to turn them off like a tap. I hate the way he keeps throwing her a few crumbs, just enough to keep her hanging in there, hoping that Ed will change and want a proper relationship with her. Seeing all her lovely photos here, and following all the updates from [MENTION=32134]smurfette[/MENTION] and others, it's impossible for me to not feel upset for Jade.
[MENTION=34034]LoveBB[/MENTION] That is just it, it's up to her, as far as I'm concerned. The problem with us women is we get the answer but when we don't like what we hear, we often times don't accept it. For me, ogling is an answer. Not committing is an answer. Been there done that. When someone wants to be with you, they'll let you know.
[MENTION=34626]Sapphire[/MENTION] the thing is, I don't see Jade as the victim. I just don't. If your scenario is true then Jade is giving him that power. We just think differently. I don't think someone can string me along unless I let them. Does age and inexperience play a part? In Jade's case, probably, but that is my biggest hope is that she grows from this whole experience and realizes there are lots of great people in the world. She doesn't have to place everything she is in the first person that shows her something new.

What I would love more than anything is for Jade to not even worry about Ed, Dan or any man, and concentrate on her Career. I want Jade to put herself first, instead of putting the man's needs ahead of her own. I had no idea this Chef called Dan Churchill had just brought out a book. Infact I'd never heard of him before. But once I read it here, I went back to read over a couple of pages I'd missed and there was sweet Jade saying, "Dan has just brought out an amazing Cookbook and it's available in Big W." Omg Jade, you are such a sweet girl. But you need to be thinking about your own Career instead of helping this Chef promote his book. I've grown to care about a girl I don't even know, and normally I don't talk like this unless they are a family or friend, but I've read most of the posts here, especially in the last 7 weeks.
[MENTION=37936]tanique[/MENTION] and [MENTION=35381]Gemini[/MENTION] are both still here too ha ha ha. I know what your saying [MENTION=37936]tanique[/MENTION], I always enjoy your Posts, I don't mean to rubbish Ed. Jade needs to tell him ENOUGH, I'm done with you. I can't believe how involved I am about this. I'm going to bed. I have a headache, and I've very rarely commented on Jade and Ed until tonight.
totally agree. i want her to focus on herself. but, i like her because of how she helped dan. to me, that is who she is. and honestly, he was VERY sweet to her and supportive in his message to her. she can focus on herself and still have some fun. he is cute. lol.
you enjoy your night. it's early evening where i am, so i have still have some time to talk about jade and her crazy life.
I'm about to go back to bed. It was nice chatting to you. I'm about to take a couple of headache tablets lol.
