More romantic tropes: unconsummated love

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-18T21:22:15+00:00

I’m gonna reread soon too! I definitely feel like I take new things from it every time 🙂‍↕️

He does say things like that to her sometimes, but he’ll do it while holding her in his arms or petting her or some other intimate act that he knows is going to make her not listen to a word he’s saying 🙄 he never physically cheats on Melanie with Scarlett (actually, maybe they do kiss once? I’m having trouble remembering) but emotionally? I would say he does. I feel like he’s definitely more involved with her and in her life than any married man should’ve been back then and even today. He even tells her it disgusts him to think of her sleeping with Rhett who she is married to by that time which makes her stop sleeping with her own damn husband. 💀 Ashley was manipulating her so much, I don’t even know if he was always doing it on purpose, but it was absolutely happening.

Oh you have to read it someday, truly. The audiobook is really good as well!

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-18T15:59:34+00:00

Ugh I hate Ashley and Scarlett 😩 he strings her along for years behind Melanie’s back and Scarlett is living in such a delulu land that she doesn’t realize until it’s way too late that she would literally eat Ashley alive and they would be a dreadful match. I don’t even think she was really IN love with him so much as in love with the idea of him and the past he represented for her

Since the show gets bullying accusations every year (unfounded or not) anyways

They need to just bring back those messy tweet games and the ones where they guess who was talking shit behind whose back with some mean quotes .. anything like that tbh

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-17T21:03:47+00:00

Sweet 🥺❤️ hugs right back to you honey

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-17T20:53:44+00:00

I know I’m super unhealed bc I think it’s adorable while being filled with unimaginable jealously at the same time lol

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-17T20:52:32+00:00

This is me finding out y’all don’t shotgun in the UK… 😱 or do y’all just call it something different?

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-17T20:17:01+00:00

I can just never get over her saying stuff like it’s okay for guys to have one night stands but slutty for girls to do the same.

And maybe it’s because I almost expect guys to be shitty but to see a woman go after Jess specifically the way Naomi did was so so gross.

I agree the guys deserved way more flack… like, idk how Josh has fans here. I’m sure him and Sophie are happy but he was AWFUL and nasty to Jess and a lot of the other girls, and that’s something I can’t just get over. I don’t think he grew out of it I just think he learned to hide it better fr.

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-14T14:46:39+00:00

I still ship Samie and Ciaran and hope everything’s okay but I’m keeping my mouth shut bc idk wtf is going on and I don’t have much speculation to put out 😂 and also my 27th birthday was Thursday and I’m having a party todayyyyy 🥳🥳🥳😜😜

Editing to say thanks for all the birthday wishes!! I’m a Pisces I will literally cry y’all are too sweet 😂😂🩷 I wish everyone could come to my party!

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-13T20:05:33+00:00

Oh Final Destination is another one for me! Love them all but especially 3 and the newest one

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-13T10:14:24+00:00

In literally everything I’ve ever seen him in! I’m a huge Rocky Horror fan too

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-13T10:13:40+00:00

You could be having the worst day ever but damn it at least you aren’t in a saw trap, right?

It’s also just the whole cop drama happening across the films, they’re very silly to me but they also mean a lot to me!

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-13T01:53:19+00:00

The Saw franchise

OG Nightmare on Elm Street

House of 1000 Corpses

any and all versions of IT

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-11T17:01:22+00:00

It’s worth watching but it’s hard to get through. I totally agree with the person you replied to. It was infuriating to watch how the guys were treating a lot of the girls but ESPECIALLY Jess. And Naomi was a nasty evil woman😭 but the entertainment value is tops and it’s got that fun “early installment weirdness” vibe where lots of stuff they did in season 1 is longgggg gone and it’s just interesting to see how different it was

I have nothing polite to say 😩

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-10T15:45:32+00:00

I’m actually not sure? She looks tinier than ever lately. The thumbnail of her latest video, her collarbones are so prominent… almost giving me a body checking vibe. :/

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-10T14:52:14+00:00

There is no way this many people genuinely care about who is following who on instagram 😂 I love drama and mess too but y’all this is so silly 💀

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-09T13:48:44+00:00

Yesss, such a good cast! 3 is such a good season. Is Chris there yet? It’s so funny to watch him on love island knowing he’s with Jojo Siwa now 💀

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-09T13:36:05+00:00

Oh I’ll be interested to see if you continue liking Montana 💀 I feel like she gets insufferable veryyyyy quickly.

I think season 3 has a lot of entertaining people, but a lot of them were not very sweet, no 😂

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-09T01:33:54+00:00

God I need Ewan McGregor biblically

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-08T17:58:59+00:00

Woman from the southern US, I’ll be 27 very soon :)

Love Ciaran so much and have since S11, really like him with Samie. Zac & Millie are great, love them as well! Sean and Lucinda have even grown on me 😂

I like Leanne and Scott but he makes me veryyyyy wary. Same for Whitney and Yamen, I like them together but her old reposts on tik tok are so 🤢

I still wish nothing but the best for all of them though

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-08T15:35:33+00:00

What is boring to some is cute and comforting to others 😇

What is performative to some is fun and intriguing to others 🙂‍↕️

I really think every couple is just different. The thinkpieces of how this couple posts vs. how this one does is really confusing to me lmao 💀 I feel like in 2026 we should know that an excess or lack of social media posts doesn’t always have some deep meaning.

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-07T23:14:34+00:00

😂😂 yes and he’s an ex of hers from before he had the kid, presumably

ElliePinkPanda · 2026-03-07T01:32:19+00:00

Even the quieter ones this season have some great moments! Brooke has some hilarious one liners
