As far as Drew and Tully, they had a strong attraction in the house, he let Tully call the shots as to where she wanted to go with Drully. She was the one in the relationship, the one who was treading in the gray area (and maybe past it).

Like the rest of us, you see what you want to see. My problem is that you say something like Caleb is a man of 'bad character', yet you forgive Drew all the stuff that left many quite perturbed. As well as that, I find your rendering of Drew as someone with no agency, sad. If that's the case, is it simply spineless men you approve of/like?

I have noticed that we haven't seen any sign of visits between Caleb and other housemates. When he started posting all the lonely looking sad pictures I wondered about that, but doesn't he live pretty far away from the others? And he obviously is having money issues so he can't be flying to meet up with Drew or whomever for parties or charity things or whatever? And maybe thats why he over stayed his welcome at Matts, that he knew once he went home, His BB experience was well and truly over because no one else is in his area and he can't fly back to visit...

How do we know he overstayed anyway? Did Matt post about it? Seems to me Caleb is doing the best he can, working, doing the plumbing biz, getting the dog, taking care of his family. He has a beach house, thats pretty cool. For all we know he does have friends. But the buzz of going on Big Brother, that is a big deal in his life and its quite a let down to go back to his normal routine. Like has been said, he had higher expectations than this.

It has been mentioned more than once about him and Matt. He posts other stuff in his life and did post 1 photo with a friend but nothing in a long time.

Ugh, okay, this is something that's bothered me for a while. Yes, only Tully was responsible to/for her relationship, but as fantastic as I think Drew is, he was no passive victim, and like it or not, knowingly getting involved with someone in a relationship earns no great character points. He was no angel. I think part of what bothers me is that if it were a guy and an "other woman" in the scenario, I suspect the "other woman" would get so much more flak than Drew has ever gotten. But regardless, again, I think he's a peach, but spare me the idea that he played no part and did no wrong.

Drew wanted it to happen but didn't push since he knew her situation, he probably should have taken the high road, but being in the BB house isn't a normal situation. Tully deservedly should bear the bulk of the responsibility for the matter, since she was the one in the relationship outside of the house.
 
Well to be honest for a long time I skimmed over anything that didn't involve my favorites. And no, Caleb wasn't one of my favorites. Never really gave him much thought. Then he got Buster, that made him someone I wanted to hear about, lol, and then the sad pictures were posted and I've paid more attention since to any posts from/about him.

I think the saddest thing about Caleb is that he yearns for a life less ordinary and it seems unlikely to happen. I could well be wrong, but I suspect someone like Drew wouldn't/won't have a problem with sinking back into oblivion. People like Caleb and Tully...not so much.

I think you're right

Caleb lives in Melbourne where Ed,Tahan,Rohan,Xavier,Sharon,Boog, Jazz and Drew all live. Caleb and Tahan were mates in the house, and Drew seemed to like him in the house as well, since he made an effort to include him in things ie gym. I think Tahan was the only HM to really hang out with Caleb since leaving the house and that was 4 weeks ago for the cancer kids. Drew,Jazz and Tully were with Caleb at the end of Nov. Did Caleb go to Drew's surprise b'day party?
maybe Caleb really did do something to offend Matt, and Ed (the meatheads trio in the house)? they do seem to be keeping quiet about it. Caleb and Matt had that bromance.
I noticed that Matt tweeted to Xavier this week when he said it had been 6 years since his Dads death but never tweeted any support to Caleb about his dads surgery, so I'm guessing there really was some fall out? none of the HM's appeared to support Caleb on SM but maybe they did PM?

Again very best wishes for his dad's recovery. IMO there must be some reason he doesn't have friends, he's not shy, not ugly, not anything on the surface that would prevent him from having friends, so why doesn't he ?

We only 'know' what we see on SM. He may have heaps of friends that we have never seen. He seems like a good guy, I'm sure he has plenty.
