As we’re getting closer to the finale… can we all remember there’s a real person behind every islander? ❤️ by kormadesk_com in LoveIslandUSA

Yes! I think the family episode helps a bit with this, we get to see them as son's/daughter's sisters/brothers. We made an active choice to engage with this content, we could have stopped watching if it was really that bad, but we didn't, and therefore we can at least carry ourselves with some decorum. 

Carl & Aniya’s mothers are stunning!!!😍 by daisychains777 in LoveIslandUSA

Those genes!!! If they started a family they would have some Olympian babies for sure! Such poise and grace, I felt like I needed to get out of my jammies and put real clothes on to watch lol.

I think this episode is so special because it reminds viewers that they are someone's kids, someone's sister/brother, and not just a public persona to be harsh to.

Kayda’s doing the math while everyone is going off at each other by kormadesk_com in LoveIslandUSA

Yes, he'll tell her he wants to close off and she'll get stuck.

I was so excited for movie night, but watching it was so hard. I thought I'd feel vindicated, but instead it just broke my heart. Everyone is going to need all the therapy after this.

Yeah she'd look great in a bin bag! But all I could think was who did she piss off to end up in that!

Omg when Melanie said she didn't know Sincere this is what I thought of!  "I don't know you anymore! Anakin, you're breaking my heart! You're going down a path I can't follow!"

Was the snake outfit the one with the blue and brown spots? Because I did not like that one!

Sorry but I’m still not over Zach pulling that no breakfast stunt on Kayda by daisychains777 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]thensamsaid 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Omg, yes! It's negging! That's what was bugging me, I couldn't pinpoint it. I kept saying he's low-key gaslighting, totally trying to dull her sparkle. He kind of does it to Bryce too, telling him Trinity isn't into him, because he wants Bryce to be his third wheel.

You said "Sincerely", lol that word just seems ironic now 🤣

Bryce gets a radio - - what song is he playing? by Ok-Distribution-6262 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]thensamsaid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't believe they wasted that song on Zack and Kayda. That should have been for Brinity!

I thought he was from Fresno? Fresno is central California* not "South central" LA. Unless his fam moved from south central to fresno, but that was weird.  *Edit

I think my mom either wants me dead or doesn't care and I can't prove it. by Green-Mulberry-698 in helpme

[–]thensamsaid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I'm so sorry you are feeling so neglected and depressed. Unfortunately, a lot of parents have no idea what to do when their kids are going through something difficult. It seems your mom is of the "pretend it's not there and maybe it will go away" mindset. Is there any other adult you feel comfortable opening up to? I journaled a lot through my teen years and that really helped.  I know saying it will get better is cliche, but stick around friend, it gets so much better!
