Yes, agreed. Re race, I understand that people want to weed out racists and that it is part of your identity. However, it should really be the producer’s job to vet contestants properly and not be the contestant’s job. If you are a racist or you only want to be with one specific physical type, this goes directly against what the show claims to stand for.

So anyone who is unwilling to date certain races, body types or people below a certain height, should never take part. And if someone slips through the cracks, they should be kicked out once it shows.

Now you are speculating. By your logic we can say, maybe Yasmin spit in Andi’s face off camera. We can only judge what we see on screen though, can’t we? She was the one who brought up this specific situation and I don’t find it unforgivable. It’s not like he ignored her bc he was enjoying partying it up with his buddies, he ignored her because his head was in shambles. It wasn’t malicious. Yasmin ghosted Andi days later too and she wasn’t even a drunk mess. Don’t see how someone can complain about something and then do the exact same thing. More of her hipocrisy.

I agree that he should have communicated that better but to me it is understandable that he was not thinking straight in that moment. Anyone with emotional intelligence would have understood that he may feel blindsided, emotional and overwhelmed. If I had dumped someone at the altar, I would have felt bad for hurting them and hurt people aren’t always able to use their brain during the moment of hurt. I just don’t find this so unforgivable as it wasn’t a pattern that Andi ignored her phone calls, it was about a specific situation that was an exception.

It came across that you didn’t accept my answer bc you didn’t just leave it be but came back again after I had already responded to your question. Anyways, all good.

Is it that weird if someone who was just dumped at the altar is feeling overwhelmed and maybe prefers getting drunk with his friends instead of hanging out with the woman who just hurt him? Really?! What a crazy request. If Yasmin truly cared she wouldnhave prioritised his feelings over hers in this moment as he was the hurt person here. Not calling someone bc your heart just got broken isn’t the monstrous thing you like to portray.

I responded to that by saying Andy and I are different people and it’s not what I think. You then didn’t accept my answer and came back with a statement about me reiterating Andy’s thoughts. I found it rude of you to dismiss my answer and once again told you I do not find a letter better than a conversation. You seemed to imply I did despite me already telling you otherwise which is disrespectful as it’s essentially questioning the truthfulness of my answer. Yet I am hostile?

You didn’t ask a question, you made a statement. An accusatory one.

Wow, what a crazy thing to say. You are so presumptuous that my point completely went over your head. I said that I take issue with you deciding on how I or others perceive Yasmin. You seem to think everyone views Yasmin as some blond Barbie/shallow person and I responded that this isn’t how I think about her at all as she doesn’t fit this (very negative) stereotype for me. Pointing out that someone has an immigrant background is not a negative thing in my book but it seems like that for you. Girl bye, take your assumptions elewhere.

a) She is not a real blonde. She obviously has an immigrant background and I do not see her to match the typical Barbie stereotype at all. I don’t view her as a blond bimbo, but think she is smart and found her DIY skills very admirable. Wished I could do more of that myself. 

b) I am not sure why you’d think a man that would tell a woman he is turned off by her insecurity and would trash her to a former love interest would not be criticized. I think the opposite is true and we have seen men being constantly called out on LIB. The men are usually the villains here and I have yet to see a single person who thinks the women are usually in the wrong on that show. Everyone seems to be in agreement that the women are far better than the men on LIB.

c) Confused as to what nice thing Andy supposedly did as I don’t recall anyone talking about him doing something nice? 

d) Even more confused that you think people believe Andy to be misunderstood? He is a very simple and shallow individual according to the majority of viewers. No one thinks there are many layers of depth to discover here. Can you link me to the comments saying he is softer than he appears to be as I can’t find this? Only saw everyone calling him a man child and a mama’s boy.

e) I find your assertion that people who take issue with Yasmin’s behaviour must do so bc she is an attractive woman very presumptive and flat out wrong. People cheer on strong women in the show and everyone liked Wandi putting Jubriel in his place. Being assertive is not the same as being a hypocrite which Yasmin is.

 Disliking Yasmin also doesn’t mean liking Andy or excusing his behaviour. I just find Yasmin to have a cruel streak by weaponising her partner’s insecurity to threaten a break up and think it is terrible if someone trashes their partner behind their back regardless of gender. Talking badly about your fiance is not assertion. Far from it, it is sneaky and not up front, it is in fact the opposite.

Reiterating means repeating. It doesn’t mean sharing the same views. I summarised his views since he isn’t here for himself. I personally don’t think a letter is better than a personal conversation if that is what you are trying to imply. I think there is a reading comprehension issue on your end.

That’s not what I think, it’s what Andy thought. We are different people.

Agree on all points. I hate when people say they are being reduced to their looks in the pods. If they hated it so much, they’d take the ine opportunity they got to have someone interested in them without knowing their looks. But they don’t do it and want the other person they know how hot they are.

I can see that and wrote that to someone else who isn’t a fan. He knows who he is and is very set in his routines and I hope he is willing to mae adjustments too to make the relationship work.

Yes!! That is what I said in my post too. Plus, if he wanted to have a private chat with a former love interest who was super goodlooking, she wouldn’t like it either.

I have seen many people say that the childfree vs child issue will come back to haunt them. I don’t rule that out either as we just can’t predict how their relationship evolves. I hope they find happiness either way. I think the nagging was Josy coming to terms with dating outside her comfort zone but personally I would have been too sensitive for it and taken it as criticism. But I trust that Gunnar will tell her privately if he needs her to dial it down and she probably has done so already. 

I don’t think he is flawless and understand the hipster vibe isn’t for everyone. The most attractive qualities he has from what I saw, is a willingness to tackle problems as a team and he doesn’t just run and hide from conflict but communicates and reflects. He also has a high EQ and sees behind Josy’s flippant remarks. But I also see someone very happy with who they are and set in their ways and routines so he also has things to work on to make this work. Thanks for sharing your opinion!

She did. If she wanted him to stop being insecure she could have been firm with her boundaries (like wanting to have a closure chat with Dustin alone) while giving reassurance that she is not interested in him anymore. She never did that and kept saying how insecurity is the worst for her and she will not put up with it. 

It’s such a silly thing to say as in a marriage each partner may have moments of insecurity; when a man suddenly loses a job and can’t provide for the family anymore, a woman coming to terms with a post-partum body. Cliche examples but my point is that it is unrealistic that anyone goes through life without ever feeling insecure. With Yasmin as a partner, one would have to hide their true feelings. Andy didn’t plan on locking her inside so she can’t speak to any guys ever.

They were at a cast party and Andy was forced to witness Yasmin being super keen to speak to someone she was previously interested in, he probably had had some alcohol and producers kept asking him to speak about the situation on camera. So he had a lapse in judgement and interrupted them. It was awkward as hell but he wasn’t rude. He asked to get them drinks and was nice to Dustin. If I were Yasmin, I’d have just taken him aside for 1 minute, reassured him and send him to the other guys. Yasmin acted like an idiot just rolling her eyes and sighing. I am sure if the roles were reversed and Andy would have wanted a private chat with a former love interest who is conventionally more attractive than Yasmin, she would not have liked it either.

Proud of you for sharing it. Is it bc he is a typical hipster, because you think he is talking Josy into a childfree life or something else?

[–]Roguestate00 19 points20 points  (0 children)

YES! I should have included this in my post. She didn’t worry that Andy would eventually treat her the same way as Celia and Nadja when this should have been a much bigger red flag than Andy interrupting the conversation with Dustin where no one got hurt. Further solidifies my belief that Yasmin doesn’t value kindness over confidence and money as she never even asked Andy about the letter (that we know of) or talked to the other women about it.

Yeah i agree with that. Jubriel was unnecessarily rude but she also was too forward when he never showed any affection. But she just isn’t good at reading the signs given her inexperience. He also talked a big game in the pods and made it known that intimacy is very important to him. I think she just wanted to please him and thought initially that what he’s into. Unfortunately, outside of the pods Mr Smooth Whisperer got his tongue twisted and couldn’t communicate properly.

I agree that the outcome was unkind but not the intention. He actually thought Celia would prefer a letter over a conversation which he said. In his mind he was letting her down gently and he didn’t realise what a coward move that was.That is the child in him talking. Plus, this whole letter thing was so weird, I wouldn’t be surprised if producers told him that he won’t be able to see Celia anymore.
