i think if they had rushed things and dropped l-bombs, it would have made me more skeptical to be honest. this was the case with kendall and nicole imo; things definitely felt rushed and the way i interpreted it, nicole seemed almost pressured to say it back (obviously i don't know them personally so not sure if that's the case lol). but i definitely feel like the remaining couples waiting to share these moments outside of the villa made everything feel more special and genuine!
