🏝 Love Island

I take it back I love Faye just the bluntness and matter of fact the way she talks is winning me over. I like the fact that teddy gave AJthe full idea of where he’s at

Ooh… then there’s the lean :joy::joy:

I like Faye and I love her bluntness. I am finding Millie very attractive though and feel she is very comfortable with Liam

Gutted, just watched tonight’s episode ready for the last part of the recoupling to realise our sky cut off the very last part of last nights episode where it was revealed who Toby and not so much Hugo picked- epic fail :woman_facepalming::joy:

I must admit - I do love all the drama, it’s getting pretty juicy!
But at the same time I do worry about their mental state and personal feelings - due to what they are experiencing at times, but it’s all part of the show that they agreed to I guess.

I do also wish they had more diverse contestants and that everyone wasn’t super slim with huge hang ups about themselves.
Like when Sharon and Faye were talking to Hugo after the row about why they feel like they need to have lip fillers and fake boobs - was so sad.
I really hope my daughters don’t grow up to feel that way, like she alone: isn’t good enough :pensive:

I’ve been watching it about 10-15 minutes behind live each night so I can skip the ads and was absolutely livid when my recording stopped short last night! Ugh literally almost ruined my night lol. Sky need to get their :poop: together!

Watched the end on ITV hub but had to sit through 3 sets of adverts to get to the end bit :woman_facepalming:

Mmmmm so juicy!

I’m sure it’s tough on the contestants, but aren’t a lot of these reality TV or even some game shows? I think after previous seasons and various horrible incidents their after care is probably a lot better.

Most people have some kind of insecurity unfortunately. Media has constantly portrayed it’s idea of “perfect” and “beautiful” forever and I think it probably effects everyone in one way or another. The way people speak so naturally about physical attributes in a negative manner is what I find upsetting. It shouldn’t be the norm to not love and accept yourself and others. It should be the opposite way around! Ugh gets me heated!

Thankfully I think we’re in the midst of a movement towards body positivity, normalising normal bodies and generally just being more accepting. I see more people, companies and media with positive messages almost every day which is fantastic news in my mind.

Love Island might not change, but it might also get left behind. :woman_shrugging:

I personally would love to see some bouncier girls (or guys) strutting around in their bikinis by the pool.

I wish that generally, both guys and girls were more accepting of their own bodies and learn to love and embrace their ‘flaws’ - because they are what makes us all individual, unique and sexy!

A lot of people say there should be more diverse people in there but the problem with that is everyone wouldn’t fancy each other, everyone has their type but ‘typically attractive’ people are generally attracted to ‘typically attractive’ people. I’ve always thought it would be cool to see a totally alternative Love Island :smile_cat:

At least the drama is picking up now! :joy_cat: but Hugo’s speech :scream_cat::scream_cat::scream_cat: shots fired!!! :boom: :boom: :boom: but I think I’m on his side to be fair

Its very addictive, now cannot stop watching it. I think Millie and Liam are the most compatable. I wonder what reward Cleo will give Hugo for saving her!

I’m not sure you’re going to find that on Love Island. :slightly_smiling_face:

No perhaps not, but like I said, within this forum we have a beautiful mixed bunch of members :blush:

Casa Amor! Looking like it could mix things up again this year. The original boys like kids in a candy shop when the new hotties arrived :bikini::high_heel::fire:

My top three casa amor predictions

  1. Jake will kiss in a challenge/game but remain faithful

  2. Toby and (can’t remember her name) will both turn

  3. Hugo still won’t find a girl but will save one as a friend

Anyone else?

My predictions very close to yours @Very-Ape 2 out of 3 but I think Jake will have his head turned.

A couple of weeks ago I would’ve said yes but I think he’s grown a bit since then :thinking: could you imagine the backlash he would get tho! :scream_cat::scream_cat::scream_cat::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Sooooooooo I’m sure Casa Amor is extremely hard for most people in the villa. They’ve literally only known each other for a few weeks at the most, and the whole point of it is to meet new people to see who they’re most compatible with. It’s easy for me to say that I wouldn’t act like them if it were me, but I’ve been with my partner a lot longer than a few weeks. That being said however, I do think that many of the guys were in the wrong with how they went about handling the situation… Worse than that though, all the manipulation from production the last couple days has been out of control…

The postcard absolutely screwed Teddy, in my opinion unfairly. I’m wish I was surprised that the producers didn’t try to make this right after all the backlash on social media. Faye and the girls assumed it wasn’t a “challenge” because it was at night time? They’ve literally all done these party game “challenges” at night time.:woman_facepalming: If you’re being made to choose a game to play in the villa, is that a game or could it be classed as a challenge? Then she ditched him just like that? Let the man explain! He was loyal to Faye the entire time, and loyal to the boys. Didn’t give any stupid advice to anyone that I can remember. More on this later.

I believe as part of the Casa Amor experience Liam was within his right to explore his own feelings. He was trying to be respectful of both girls the whole time, and I think he would have made a clear decision with what he felt in his heart without the need to sleep with or "compare kisses with anyone. That is if “his boys” hadn’t encouraged him to go wild because it’s a “lads holiday”… Even still, I think Liam would have had a conversation with Millie to explain himself, come clean and deal with the consequences when he got back. Production bringing in Lille and the other dumped Casa Amor islanders and pushed them to cause massive drama was unnecessary in my opinion. The episode had plenty drama as it was!

Toby and Tyler make me cringe. Hopefully they go back to school after love Island finishes. Toby has now done the same thing 3 or 4 times. I’m in no way saying Abigail is at fault, but she’s probably seen everything we’ve seen before she entered the villa. And if it were me, I would have never trusted Toby to remain loyal. Tyler obviously seen something he liked in Kaz, but then jumped into it way too fast. That probably happens to lots of people, but aren’t there better ways to handle it? I’m not sure. He seemed to be fairly immature and disrespectful when he came back anyway. I think Kaz dodged a bullet there.

Very happy for Hugo, but the “moving mad” chat has got to end! Everyone started saying it at the same time in both villa’s… Maybe it was trending or something and the love Island producers wanted in on the action? It was pretty nice when Hugo came back with Amy.

Then there’s Jake. Sooooooooo loyal… Right? The way Jake was actively encouraging everyone to “do bits” (whatever that means), because none of them were in “official relationships” and they’re on a “lads holiday” really annoyed me. Just didn’t seem right. Didn’t seem to me like something a good friend would do, knowing a few of them had good relationships already. He should have been giving good thoughtful advice, and that just wasn’t it. Yes everyone has their own free will makes their own choices but the power of peer pressure can often have a big impact (especially on teenagers and young adults) and cause people to do things they maybe wouldn’t do otherwise. So was he loyal to his friends? :thinking:

When Jake got home and spoke to Liberty… Liberty says she missed and he doesn’t even reciprocate?! I’ve noticed this happen many times. Instead of saying nice things back to Liberty he just says “awwww you’re so cute” or “awwww you missed me?” When I watch them interact he gives me the feeling he doesn’t even want to be there sometimes. I think he maybe rushed into the relationship to fast for himself too and now feels trapped. Wither he meant it or not, they might ride it to win the money… I don’t see them lasting on the outside. I highly doubt it’s all just his game plan, but if it is… The sabotage on the other boys was a nice touch.

Phew, that’s a few days worth of love Island thoughts all wrapped up. Hopefully blurred everything I consider a spoiler, sorry if I missed anything. Potentially a few unpopular opinions in there and I’m open to conversation, but please go easy on me- like Toby, I haven’t been in many relationships and my knowledge and experience is probably below average when it comes to that kind of stuff :joy:

TL;DR: Love Island producers are “moving mad” (lol). Far too much manipulation these last few days seems a bit dangerous honestly.

Teddy got treated unfairly.

Liam made a bad mistake but I’m hoping it gets sorted out.

Toby and Tyler make me cringe at this point.

Hugo seemed happy.

Jake worries me and I no longer trust him.

@IrvineTheBigYin I think I agree with most of you!

Teddy got completely screwed over. The producers did that on purpose and it was so unfair. When him and Faye had that wee heart to heart they both seem to be really hurt.

Toby is a douche and has shown he will literally just move on to a new woman when a new one comes in.

I can’t decide about [spoiler]Jake[/spoiler. I want to believe he’s genuine, but there’s still something that’s concerning me I can’t put my finger on!

I hope Teddy and Faye make up and get together again. I really feel for Millie as I think Liam wanted his cake x 2. I think Jake is playing the game and is only interested in winning the money. He seemed to be encouraging everyone to cheat in order to upset things. I also think the producers are being very cruel with everyone’s mind totally in increase viewing figures. @ChloJakes and @IrvineTheBigYin
