Post BB - Housemate Antics 2013 - Part 2

I was catching up in here first as I always do and I was like how is it possible there's already a HM thread with people acting loopy when we barely know anything about these HMs at all.

Holy Hannah was I sorted out quickly as to which season of BB y'all were referring to haha

For a year I've been meaning to go back and rewatch that season as I missed chunks of it due to traveling and other stuff but now I'm not going to bother. It's much easier to follow that situation when you have no strong feelings about either of the people involved. To be fair to some of the people posting in there though, it sounds like this is the first time many of them have had a chance to interact with either Ben or Estelle so they're unleashing now about stuff that's been inside for 2 years.

I also think that even though some may laugh at us in here, what we've done with the '13 HMs by following them so closely for a year after has given us a much better insight into them as a person rather than just remember their behaviour for 3 months or less of their life. If we hadn't, those HMs would've just been frozen in time from their BB days as would our opinions and understanding of them.

Since it seems that none of you have ever had to break up with someone before, I will say that I have, & I don’t consider myself a bad person for doing so. Nor do I consider Drew a bad person. All this talk about ‘what he did’ is so overblown in my opinion. People fall out of love & relationships end every day. It happens to people who built relationships in the real world & to people who have been together for years, so I’m baffled why anybody would be down on Drew for falling out of love with someone he met in the unrealistic environment of BB & was in a committed relationship with for a grand total of six weeks. It’s sad if Tully felt hurt by it, but Drew is not a horrible person because his feelings for her didn’t translate to the real world.

I’m equally baffled by the suggestion that he was only with her to win BB as the ‘nice guy’. How on earth would hooking up with a girl in a relationship help him win BB? Any chance he had to win was gone after that & he knew it. I can recall two occasions, off the top of my head, where he basically said he couldn’t win because of it.

Exactly, i don't think Drew is to blame as stuff like that happens getting caught up in the moment, but she does need to maybe let go and not go to Melbourne for him. And in the future if they did somehow hypothetical find there way back to each other Drew would need a new attitude because i think Tully needs a man who wants more out of life than being a hipster.

How do you figure that all he wants in life is to be a hipster? He is going to acting classes, auditioning, doing modelling gigs, & working at Eve. It seems to me he is working hard to make things happen for himself.

Big deal he is a model, working at Eve doesn't change the fact what type of person he is or has become.

As long as you realise that's not what all of us are saying.

Fair enough. Maybe the other people didn't think it was as bad or they hadn't heard about it.

My personal take is that I appreciate what he did in the house, and that's about it. Although I enjoy when he says/does stupid stuff IRL for the entertainment value.

That's fair. I was surprised to see people who seemed to be annoyed by that stuff turn around and faun over Tim. I was never entertained by him, fairly indifferent, but some of the stuff I have seen following this thread has made generally disdainful.
 
Tim just posted in his thread

Sorry can't chat tonight, I forgot I'm going to be on channel 9's footy show charity telethon!...maybe you can call me up to chat direct, and donate for the kids!

But I do have one question for you...what 'tim style' pranks would you like to see happen to this years housemates?

looks like Jade and Tim are both going to that footy show charity telethon tonight:)
 
My point wasn’t that he is a model, but that he has higher ambitions than what you claim. He is working as a model & at Eve to pay the bills while he pursues acting.

As to what type of person he has become? That would be a person whose BB romance didn’t work out. He is hardly the first. I can’t believe anybody actually thought they would last to begin with. They were horrible together. Couples who were far more compatible in the house than them failed in the real world.

By the way @Stephy18, tweeting your disapproval to Drew is incredibly juvenile.

okay, everyone has their own opinion and FYI i was actually tweeting to Tully on twitter and other people who commented on my tweet linked his name and i just responded.

Okay. It's by no means at all a general consensus, but there are plenty of us weird stalky people who have perceived some not-so-appealing changes in him, unrelated to Tully, in the past few months--yes, only as far as we can read from weird SM stalky stuff, but that's all we have to go on and as I said, not everyone sees it the same. And as far as their relationship, some people saw its possibilities quite differently--including Tully apparently. It's fine if you find that unbelievable, but it's actually the case. Different perceptions, no need to be mean about it.
 
My thought when I was quietly lurking around the Baileys couch a few months back is Tully came to Melbs when Drew came back from the USA, and had arranged a surprise romantic gesture, and an attempt to get back with him. She was surprising him at the airport I think. Unfortunately that went a little wonky for her, and he didn't want what she did. And to her credit if that was what happened she still did her month of Melbourne and did it well!

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, that is true. I don't believe anyone in here is being nasty about Drew.
I'm sure he is a nice person, and don't judge him by the fact that they broke up - you are correct - people in relationships break up all the time.
I feel an empathy for Tully. She has been judged very harshly by the majority of people and I'm happy that the record has finally been set straight. She copped an awful lot of abuse about her relationship with Drew on and off the screen. He was very lucky in that it was mostly directed at her not him. It was disgusting. And then she copped more abuse again when they broke up - people calling her out as 'showing her lesbian colours' , calling her stupid for leaving him etc. it must have been heartbreaking for her. And yet she still stood by him. This is where I get angry at him - he did not come out and show her any support publicly at this stage, he said nothing. He was quite happy to sit back and let her continue to take the blame. To me that was weak.
