The hated for Jade is out of proportion?

Some people in this forum have started to pick on every single word that Jade said. There is a new anti-Jade thread everyday. I feel sorry for her b/c she is a kind, vulnerable & loyal girl.

I know it might be painful for those who have been fooled in love to watch. But if you have gone through been you may understand well why she is keep doing such silly things. Women are normally feel emotionally attached with men after kissing, cuddling because of increases of oxytocin. If she doesn't meet him on a daily basis & has received intervention from family or friends, she may don't fall so hard for him, but they have been living together 3 months, 24/7 in an amplified environment. So let's say what she is doing in sometimes out of her control.

Most of us were fooled or will be fooled in love once at some stages in our life. Even smart women or successful men can act very silly when they are in love. Can you be sure that you act wisely when you fall for a person who doesn't love you back? So, why don't give the poor girl a break when she just acts like a normal human who is being fooled in love.

She is the person who gets hurt for being played & has to face the hated from the public. If our family members or friends be fooled in love, what should we do to help them get out of it? Support or Bashing?I hope she can overcome this.

I think a relationship was her strategy to begin with, and when Drew rejected her, she went after Ed. Ed & her had a moment or two of attraction in the early days and she did what she could to make him change his game plan of not having a relationship in the house.

Now she's found herself in an actual relationship with a guy she genuinely likes and she's been kept in, so is running with it. Even though she doesn't agree with everything he comes out with, nor with the way he's playing the game, and can plainly see all his faults.

The only downside to her plan is she's been portrayed as a stalker/bunny boiler etc, which isn't true or fair, and will be evicted because of it. That and Drew is doing nothing but bitching about her constantly to try to influence us to evict her instead of him.
 
All the anti Jade threads are playing right into Ed's family's hands.
Actually, they probably have been started by Ed's family.

I couldn't agree more.

I don't love Jade, I don't hate Jade (I don't hate anyone - it's a life rule of mine, but I digress). I just find her and Ed boring to watch, and very uninteresting. When Jade was throwing herself at Ed, I was horrified on her behalf because of the part of your statement that I quoted. However, they have moved on from that and afford me no entertainment value.

As for the hatred.... I liken some posters here to football fans. Some are obsessed with loving their HM (or football team) and are incapable of seeing good anywhere else. They take anything anti their HM as a personal attack. That in itself is fun to watch - until you find yourself caught in the vortex. Then it's like "HOLY SHIT, How did I get here?" LOL

Jade has a lot of supportive fans. Nearly 300 pages on the Jade appreciation thread is nothing to sneeze at. I think she will not suffer any lasting harm from the negativity. There is 3 loving posts to every not so great one. She will just need a big tub of icecream when Ed moves on and leaves her behind.
 
Omg. She is not in love! She is playing a game, and doing it very badly. It is painful tv.

It was painful when she was throwing herself at him. Now that he is into the whole thing, it's just boring.

I was happy to see Ed building a sand castle yesterday with Tim. It was GREAT to see him doing something interesting for a change!

*note - I don't really find building sandcastles interesting - I was being sarcastic ;)

When Drew rejected her? Wasn't it the opposite? Drew was major crushing on her, but she wanted to chase after Ed. Then Tully came and swooped in when she noticed Jade going after Ed.
 
She came on BB to advance her career. She managed the opportunity very badly by fawning over another contestant. She will leave, we will forget and life will move on for both her and her detractors. Its not such a big deal. No-one really gives a hot godamn about previous BB contestants either if it makes you sleep any easier.

thats the way i saw it.
in fact Drew was embarrassing himself in and almost Jade-like fashion.

That is spot on. I've been a diehard Survivor fan for years and so coming from that community everything is all "that was a great play", "their game plan is flawed for this reason", "they should have played an idol and then split the votes this way and force a tie" etc, it's all fairly abstract. Things don't usually get personal on that show unless you're talking about someone like Colton, or Russell Hantz, or on some sort of higher gameplay level you object to Fairplay's grandmother lie.

But Big Brother is a different kind of show, I'll admit that. Since it's basically a personality contest (and I don't mean that negatively), when you support a player you're kind of hitching your bandwagon onto who they are and what they represent. If you value chaotic, rule-of-fun type people, you're drawn to Tim and what he represents, if you're more about quality X, you support housemate Y, that sort of thing. And once you're supporting one person, everyone else is "the other".

Yep, he rejected her and didn't realise he'd done it. When they were first in the honeymoon suite and were in bed. She reached back to stroke his arm and he said "we should have a massive fight" (can't remember the exact wording, but it's close enough). She immediately withdrew her hand as she took this as him not being interested. Within a day or two Drew was complaining to BB that she liked Ed. And then, as you say, Tully swooped in.
 
I don't hate Jade I just think she is psychotic and mentally retarded.
 
I don't hate Jade, I just think she has emotional issues and believes that she has a sense of entitlement, that because she likes a guy, that she can smother him and just aggressively pursue him, I feel sorry for Ed as she just wore him down.
As somebody else said after next week who is going to care about any of them, they will be yesterday's news.
 
Did you all hear her last night saying to Tim that if his (Ed) looks were affected she didn't know what she would do but 'probably have to get to know him first' JEEBUS woman!!
 
Jade is one of those girls who would do anything Ed said at the click of a finger, shes desperate and Ed is much of a wank for leading her on.

I wanna see Ed go, so Jade can suffer.
 
Here's my take on Jade. I posted it several days ago on another tread.
____

I have a young daughter and I think a lot about the values and ethics I can give her so she grows up to be a smart, assertive woman. I would feel like a failure if she turned out as vacuous and unthinking as Jade. Many little girls go through a princess stage and that’s fine and natural, but if the parents have ensured their little girl is rewarded for educational achievement rather than for being pretty, then she should grow out of it with a proper sense of self-worth and more ambition in life than wanting to meeting Mr Perfect.

I don’t hate Jade, I feel sorry for her. At almost every general knowledge quiz she’s shown herself to be a complete dunce, and I’m sure it’s not because she’s just stupid, it’s because, like many pretty teenage girls, she was allowed to get away with not working hard at her studies because of her looks. How do you think the stereotype of the ditzy blond came about? They’re not all genuine dimwits because of the colour of their hair or because they’re good looking. It’s a cultural thing, where pretty girls are expected and encouraged to be good looking and compliant, and not much else.

Bloody hell, could you imagine how Ed would react if Jade was smart and assertive? He’d run a mile! But the more involved they become, the more submissive and unthinking Jade becomes. She has repeatedly and willingly chosen to be a doormat. Sure, she’s young and everyone makes mistakes when they’re young. For this reason I pity her rather than hate her. But, again, it just shows her low level of expectation - find a great looking guy and pin him down. As a father I think this is so disappointing. Initially I really liked Jade, but I reckon Tim had it right the other night when he said that Ed and Jade are turning into each other. She wants nothing from Ed except for him to love her back and as a result is willing to overlook his persistent weaknesses and lack of gumption.
