Looks like it’ll be a good one.
So Tom now wants to do anything he can to “fight” for Samie. Isn’t that the type of thing you do for people who you truly hold in high regard? So two days ago he wasn’t sure that he did consider her so highly and wanted to double check, yet again, if there was a better match. To justify that, he said that he thought he was punching, she would probably come back with someone else and so that was a good enough reason for exploring other options. Fair enough, that’s sort of the point of the show, but don’t now act as if she’s been special to you. It all feels a bit too late now.
Some of these boys act as if they’ve got to literally get married to someone before the end of the show! Every relationship needs time to find its level but you’ve got to take a chance and show some loyalty at some point and if it doesn’t work out, move on then, not during.
I’m sorry but even if I risked looking like a lonely mug, if I really had felt so strongly for someone that I’d declare I’d fight for them, I wouldn’t have been kissing and spooning other people. His making a distinction between kissing on the terrace being acceptable vs the bed says it all really in terms of his mentality to “harmlessly” playing the field. It’s worse really as they sort of have to offer their bed. Is she now supposed to fall for this crap just cos he’s handsome? He’s been fickle and very thoughtless with every girl he’s tried out and she should run a mile, she’s too good for him. Fifty per cent of this season feels like it’s been him apologising to girls so that says a lot. I feel sorry for Lydia, she seemed a sensitive soul and he led her on too much.
Tom would make a great big brother but a lousy boyfriend.
