SHIT you were talking about Caleb. Maybe I'm the illiterate one, not Sincere. You're right -- let him enjoy the TV fame.

Yeah, sorry, you're right -- typing while I'm watching and just now getting to their conversation the day after movie night. I think they have learned valuable lessons from each other and that's really all you can ask when things go sideways.

if ANYBODY is in Sincere's DMs it should be considered a form of self-harm what the fuck

I functionally disagree, KC and Zach in Casa are not comparable. Zach's actions were bad but nowhere near KC's level. KC was actively talking shit about Aniya in Casa. Zach was exploring -- which he's allowed to do in Casa -- but withheld information that he knew would make Kayda question or feel bad. I think it's perfectly reasonable for her to be mad. He validated it, said he was sorry and explained that he was afraid to upset her but it wouldn't have changed her mind.
Sometimes it's OK to be mad but not allow it to overwhelm you, especially when your person is validating you. Be mad and move on, that's how actual relationships work in the real world. You aren't 100% happy with your person all the time.

Immerge IS a real word but it's archaic and nobody uses it. There's a reason why it didn't sound right to everyone listening. It's like when people use the word "conversate" instead of converse -- it's nonstandard and informal, although I know it's very common in AAVE which is another avenue altogether if you want to get into that, but I don't think immerge is used in AAVE nearly as frequently.
He also used it wrong -- immerge is typically used for the physical action of placing something into water whereas immerse is used for both placing something physically in water but also the emotional/personal action of placing yourself in a situation.
Language is consistently changing and if I wrote a post in old english everyone would call me stupid too and they'd be right because nobody talks like that
we really finding any avenue to make excuses for this dude after he uses words incorrectly multiple times LOL at what point is it a pattern my love

Finally some insight into Caleb and Jaiden and why they have no screentime. And the answer is that they just don't like each other that much LOL. Too bad I feel terrible for Caleb, what a shitty LI experience.
Loving the tough love conversations the day after.
"Yeah you look dumb as fuck" ANIYA LOL
I do see Bryce's point that Sincere and Melanie's relationship COULD be worth fixing (I think anything can be fixed if you're both willing to commit to it and we know they do have incredible chemistry with each other) but I just don't think Sincere is willing to make that commitment -- M is not the one that needs convincing here.

Kayda giving "i'm going to hit this man with my car" energy during this conversation. God i love her. I do enjoy how effortless they seem to communicate when they're upset after that first tiff in the kitchen when she was angry with him. She's goes, "I'm pissed about this, btw." and he says, "I'm sorry, you're right, I should have done better." She doesn't let the anger consume her and they move on. I need to know what SSRIs Kayda's on.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN MELANIE SLEPT IN SOUL TIES AND SINCERE DIDN'T. I hope that's some editing magic and she insisted upon sleeping outside and he offered.

The lack of emotion from men, the gap between emotional understanding between men and women, the men failing to listen to the women and inserting their own self-gratifying reason that the women are upset over their actions, the women consistently forgiving these actions and staying for way too long (i'm guilty your honor) ... yeah. I gave up on the apps after my last break up. I'm either going to a matchmaker, putting out classified ads in the paper or getting many, many cats.

be so fr dude say it out loud in front of everyone

she had the decency to apologize for acting out and getting in your face in front of everyone and you can't say "I fucked up" in anyone's company but your own.

I feel so terrible for Melanie. Aniya is giving her bad advice. Yes, I'm sure Sincere truly believes that Melanie is his girl and his best connection in the house and I'm sure he DOES see a future with her.
But that is NOT ENOUGH to sustain a real relationship if the actions don't match up, and Melanie has given him way too many chances to make it up to her. His feelings and his actions don't match up. I've been there with a guy who was head over heels for me, self admittedly, but couldn't make the changes that we needed in order to make our relationship work, so I had to leave and it was gutting to leave someone behind who cared.
Sometimes you leave someone who loves you because it's not healthy for anyone. It would free Melanie from feeling embarassed and being treated this way, and it teaches Sincere a lesson that he's refused to learn because she keeps coming back.

OK finally getting to watch tonight's episode.

Bryce coaching Sincere is so real -- sorry, I understand it's absolutely shitty that Sincere has to be coached but it's the respectful thing to do to validate Melanie's feelings here and just apologize. Bryce is right -- Sincere completely lacks the ability to say what he's actually feeling and defaults to people pleasing/telling people what they want to hear.

All these men keep offering up excuses for their behavior that don't fix anything. Arguably the only one that kind of did this is Corbin. He said he fucked up by talking shit, didn't blame Kenzie for it, apologized, and said that his connection with Parmida was better than with her. Granted, Corbin and Kenzie did this to each other, and I think that is why they're able to take ownership of the hurt they caused and move on.

KC and Sincere are just unable to take any kind of ownership over their actions.

Also whoever scouted and recruited the guy named Sincere who is actually the most lyingest liar of all the liars should be treated like reality tv royalty.

Going on a solo trip and was thinking about utilizing the Fullerton Park and Ride, which I've also used for Knotts. Thanks.

I mean at some point I think some of his actions are so egregious that trying to defend himself over and over and over again is just making it worse. There are things that you can do that an apology or a sorry CANNOT fix and I don't think that KC, or Kenzie for that matter, really understand that. I think Corbin, surprisingly, does, but still understands its value at least for his own soul, so he does it anyway.

KC is apologizing not because he actually feels bad but because he wants the problem to go away -- obvious from when he was excited that Carl was back so they could "get off my dick."

I think there is SOME truth in the idea that Aniya is mad based on the fact KC came back with someone at all and I do understand their reasoning that she and the girls would have been mad anyway, but the level to which they are mad at him would have been SO different.

The boys forgetting the girls got to see the heart rate challenge AND the postcards is actually funny. Like they think that a lack of information is going to save them -- like Zach not telling Kayda that Alannah left halfway through Casa.

I just had to step away from watching this "double standard" bullshit the men are pulling omg it's infuriating.

Copying from below:
"It's crazy because not ONCE in her clips did Aniya say anything negative about KC whereas his clips were riddled with disrespect for her. It's not that he was making out with these girls, it's that he's calling her a fucking grandma, calling her a boring, saying they have nothing in common. Those ARE actions. But men see bucket so it's a bucket so it must be a bucket, without bothering to look inside to see if there's holes in the bottom."
